So let me get this straight there is already nothing to do in this game and the loot table is already the worst in gaming history. But bungie in there brilliance thinks hey let's raise the light level for no reason
... it's not a dlc there is no reason for this shit other than to waste more of the players time. This company truly finds a new way to destroy destiny every day.
Apparently I'm an idiot for disagreeing with a meaningless light raise when most haven't even hit 320...
Edit so apparently people have wishful thinking this expansion is gonna have actual content. And not be a higher level vog crota and poe. Bungie already said no more dlc. And yes plans change and the expansion is new but judging from year 2 so far I'll believe content when I see it.
"
Prior to the holiday break we mentioned a second, larger update slated for Spring. That content release will feature a significant Light increase, a bunch of new gear to earn and equip, and new challenges for PvE players seeking some more fun experiences and replayability"
Direct quote for spring
Sounds similar to the promise prior to challenge mode. And that was sooo much content. ..
Edit 2. For the record I love the game and my embarrassingly high amount of hours can attest to this. And I hope some of these people are right and there will be real content. Just since ttk any time I've hoped something I've been let down.
Edit 3
Let me explain this because apparently I've been unclear. This spring is an update much like the challenge mode update. There will be some new dumb challenges added . There won't be any new content. If you want to cross your fingers feel free but I've learned this company only let's you down
Edit 4 wow lots of responses some agree some disagree
Let's get more replies to try and get a definitive answer from some bungie employe
Someone asked me to back my claim. Just going off past experience bungie claimed we'd only seen 1/7 of the dreadnought and then when challenges came out it was the exact same sh[b]i[/b]t just slightly touched
Ffs my group did the warpriest challenge by accident. ...
Edit 5
Wow over 500 posts some agree some dont
Edit 6
Look I've spent a shamefully high amount of time with this game and learned a lot along the way. And honestly rule 1 is keep expectations low. Bungie themselves have said this community has a tendency to over hype something. For example the sleeper simulant was the supposed year 2 God weapon that literally resulted in thousands of players dedicating their time to try and find this hidden gun. Only for it to have been a time gate. I recommend you keep your expectations low
Edit 700 replies will we hit 1000?

Give up just play black ops 3, or wait for The Division

What about the previous update when it stated a significant world and director update?
-
Because its an mmo and thats what mmos do

1 ReplyWhy increase the light level? Well if they didn't wtf would you do when you hit 320, there is literally nothing to do now anyway.
-
1 ReplyWait a sec, OP is right guys. We should be nerfing the light level.
-
3 RepliesBecause more players will come back to do old raids and get GOOD gear from it. They need to revive the player base to its full potential.
-
8 RepliesHere is an idea, in stead of going full retard and jumping on the "Destiny and bungie are trash" bandwagon and trying to sound like you know what your talking about. Why don't you just shut up and wait until the new content is released. I'm tired of seeing all these people complain about a game not being what they want it to be. News flash.. it's not you're game, it's bungies... you're just paying money to be able to play it.

Light increase or character level increase is just a way to hide content from people who don't want to pay for new content and gives you the illusion of progress. In reality it's just a rescaling. The range of power is still 0..1 or min..max. Rescaling power and giving us new weapon skins with higher lightlevel is no content at all. But it would be nice to play all the old stuff with 260..310 levels and new mob composition. Bungie should also add predictable loot to all boses at 310..320 light.
-
Increase... So this 320 ghost anyone who played Crimson Doubles will get... Is about to not be so good? And by "significant" I'm betting it's 320 - 330 :D
-
I'm somewhat skeptical that max light level will be increased. Bungie said there will be a significant increase in light level - this could just mean that old raids and strikes are what things see the significant increase in light level. As op and others said, there's no good reason for increasing max guardian light w/o significant new content.
-
No, what they said was we have seen 5/7 of ttk and that was because of hardmode and then later challenge mode. The lads on guardian one did a whole podcast on it. They have also hinted at no more dlc's after destiny 2 bit nothing definate just some article writers claiming they have "sources" who have told them so. If bungie hasn't put it in the weekly news update then don't believe everything you read. Not to mention the bulk of people i see on this forum would welcome both raids and poe brought back in with current weapons and armour.

If you think playing is a waste of time the you ate not enjoying yourself and you should just quit
-
You dont understand how mmos are working? Thats ok, but pls can you leave your bs at home? Ty 😉
-
1 ReplyProgression, that is why.
-
Haha you should play some WoW and come back if you guys really want to see grind and bullshit at its finest... [spoiler]havent played in a few years so it might be more casual friendly now[/spoiler]
-
*thats exactly how mmos work*
-
Welcome to destiny :-)
-
Now for kings fall people will ask for 320+... -_- great.... Just great
-
You're not obligated to play Destiny. Put the game down, go play something different. Play something you enjoy. Hell, maybe take a break from video games, who cares. Nobody is forcing you to play. -An ex-guardian

Edited by dhamm26: 2/14/2016 10:41:33 PMI really think it will be the revival of old raids that drop gear for the new light increase They've already stated no new DLC's - that means no new raids... What else could deliver the kind of replayabilty that they're suggesting? There's no way that they can have their new content be based around kings fall again
-
1 ReplyHonestly I haven't hit 320 on any character (because why?) but if they raise the light level then I'd probably do a couple raids and get back into it. ^ there it is. The answer to your question. More active players.
-
1 ReplySo you could leave and help that settlement I marked on your map!
-
Raising the light level gives people something else to do in the game that has the replayability of the raid when it first came out.
-
6 RepliesKind of agree. I would say a vast majority of people are not 320 cause of stupid rng. I'm done raid 72 times. No way I should still be 319.
-
5 RepliesIncrease grind time
-
3 RepliesWho can be bothered grinding the new raid for 320 loot? I got to 310 w all three and knocked it on the head.
