Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes

[b]Please leave a like, comment or idea and let's get this thread noticed by Bungie![/b] I am generally pretty down on Destiny not being the game it should be, however, there is hope. We have already seen how small quality of life improvements can greatly affect the enjoyment of the game (such as the inclusion of additional bounty slots). There is still so much that really needs to change. Below are the changes I would desperately like to see implemented as soon as possible and that require no new assets or complex mechanics to be created. What are yours? 1. Vault space and lots of it. This should have been implemented months ago. Destiny is a very limiting game but this is the worst barrier in it. Playing a game where the main purpose is to collect stuff but where there's nowhere to put it is a frustrating experience. 2. Provide the option to remove auto aim. I am sick of the cursor moving all over the screen tracking one enemy then the next. 3. Remove the glimmer limit. It's nonsensical, artificial and there is no reason why it should be there. 4. Raise the limit on Vanguard/Crucible marks or make them an item that can be swapped between characters on your account. 100 per week is a derisory amount and removes much of the reason to keep playing once the limit is reached. 5. Upgrading legendary weapons. This would add variety to the game because the pool of 331 weapons available to choose from would then be much greater. We could keep our old favourites rather than wait for them to be reissued as a 2.0 version in a later expansion. It would also make it worth levelling Iron Banner to get that rank 5 weapon as you could keep it throughout the life of the game. 6. Having to go into our inventory screen to change weapons is not only annoying and time consuming but it can cause death from an unseen enemy. Allow us the ability to cycle through weapons whilst activating our ghost using the d-pad arrows. That way, it would still mean you can't carry 3 exotics at once but swapping weapons would be easier and we could see our surroundings whilst we did it. Maybe: Up arrow = cycle primary weapons Left arrow = cycle secondary weapons Right arrow = cycle heavy weapons Down arrow = cycle grenade type 7. Commendations are another useless item implemented for no other reason than to hold the player back. For many of us, these things just sit in our vault taking up space. Make them exchangeable, maybe for 50 materials (eg spin metal) or maybe you could give a Vanguard commendation to a faction vendor and receive 50 crucible marks or vice versa. This would mean pve players could still get the faction gear and pvpers could get Vanguard gear without leaving the Crucible. Either way, make them have a use. 8. Move exotic bounties from the bounty tab to the mission tab. Obviously this is less of an issue than it used to be but it's still annoying to have 16 or so new bounties available each day from Eris and the bounty vendor and have slots taken up with exotic bounties for days on end. 9. Allow us to split stacks of items. Say, I want to farm glimmer on a couple of characters using black wax idol but all of my wax is on one character. Why can't I just take a few of them and transfer them to one of my characters, instead of having to take the whole lot in one go and then send the whole lot back again when I revert back to the other character. 10. Provide the option so that when you select a character to enter the game with, you enter at the Tower by default, rather than in your ship. Currently, every time we swap items between characters we must: 1. enter game in ship 2. go to the tower (to place item in the vault) 3. switch character 4. enter game in ship 5. go to the tower (to collect item) 6. go back to ship Rather than just, 1. enter game at tower (place item in vault) 2. switch character 3. enter game at tower (to collect item) 4. go to ship Also, when we activate our ghost, add the option to "Return to Tower" alongside the "Return to orbit" option. Let us choose where we wish to go more effectively so that we don't waste so much of our play time in loading screens. I believe Bungie could implement all of the above without a huge expense of time or resources and the impact these changes would have on the game would be massively beneficial. Again, what if anything would you add to this list? Edit 1: I've edited no.6 which previously referred to the equipping of multiple exotics. Edit 2: Added the best of the community suggestions from this thread below: 11. (from Mercenary) New heroic modifiers: Blind = No radar Molasses = No sprint Legion = Double enemy count Dryfire = Only reload on empty mag Catch = Enemies throw grenades when you take cover Triage = Health only regens on abilities (Hungering Blade, Life Drain, Transfusion) Legendary = Harder than Epic 12. (from Mercenary) Nightfall + It would have the Legendary modifier active and four others, plus a burn. This would make for one hellish run with bonus rewards, but if you wipe, or return to orbit for any reason, your chance at running it for the week is over (the regular nightfall would still be available). Nightfall + would also have optional objectives that could earn you bonus legendary engrams, such as 'No Deaths', 'Most Kills', 'Most Orbs', 'Most Revives', etc. that would be randomly selected each week. This could give the Nightfall leetists something more challenging to work on for chances at some nice loot. 13. (from Hammerhead682) Allow us the option of different/random insertion points for patrols. 14. (from Murfspec and Shadow Moses) Add a sort button to the vault and allow us to drag and drop items and gear into specific slots in the vault. 15. (ProperJimmy) Fix the glitch where, if you are wearing armour that increases ammo capacity, you lose ammo on every death or trip to orbit. 16. (from L7ftedDOWN) Add more emotes and allow them to be assigned to specific d pad keys. 17. (from Kill Phil83) A good use of commendations would be using them and, say, 150 marks for upgrading old weapons. Perhaps with VoG weapons it would remove the VoG specific perk and upgrade the gun to 331 damage. 18. (from Kill Phil83) As ascendent mats are now largely useless for people doing Crota's End and obtaining raid gear (which makes them a disappoining reward in a Nightfall) why not add a new rank for Eris (rank 5) and with this you can trade ascendant mats for radiant mats? For example, 10 for 1 plus a little glimmer and black wax idol. 19. (from Jorgelucasds) Add an option for us to auto dismantle green/blue items. 20. (from Jorgelucasds) Allow strikes to be done without matchmaking. 21. (from Jorgelucasds) Add quick setups for the subsclasses. For example, at the subclass customize screen allow three different saved setups that can be quicky accessed. 22. (from Jorgelucasds) When we hover the cursor over a specific mission, let us see which of our friends is currently playing it. 23. (from Jorgelucasds) Allow us to customize the in-game sound. Currently, if a player wants to listen to musics through their console the Destiny music prevents this. 24. (from Jorgelucasds) Add a target dummy to the Tower where players can assign an static target's level and try out weapons, receiving dps/max damage info. 25. (from Zerosan9000) Allow ammo synth packs to be used via the d-pad. It would also be useful to have a visual indication of how long is left on each synth and glimmer boost (eg black wax), maybe this could be by a slowly depleting bar like the one when a player uses certain supers. 26. (from Shadowfax00) Skippable cutscenes please! 27. (from 0X088) The ability to reforge the perks on all legendary guns. This should be done at the weaponsmith, possibly for 25 marks or 5 strange coins per re-roll. 28. (from Matoskah) Bring back the ability to trade materials for marks so that those who don't enjoy the Crucible can nevertheless grind the faction gear). 29. (Me again) Make faction shaders a predictable reward for those who are the most dedicated followers. I would suggest one shader at rank 10 and another at rank 20 and have this as the only way to obtain the shaders. That would give people a reason to grind for weeks on end. 30. (Me again) on the screen where you look at a weapon's stats and perks, show the stats in figures not just bars: eg impact 53, etc 31. (Kazakune) Allow us to see all of our progress with the various faction in the game whilst in the inventory screen. 32. (juggernot42) Allow us to customise the appearance of our characters via a Tower barbershop or something similar
