    • So do you already need the exotic weapon catalyst in order to get the masterwork upgrade during the Arms Week event?

    • I must say i liked this twab. Yeah its more of the same old we are listening but we cant do it now, maybe later but we wont say what oh and keep the feedbac bs. BUT, i've noticed that so far crucial issues such as endgame, loot, progression, power/light having a meaning and what you guys call weapon randomization have been commented more than twice and officially. This might as well serve for nothing, BUT, just the fact that these topics are finally being acknowledged and repeteadly mentioned kinda gives out that the commitment is there, somewhere at least. Also i like that for some time you guys have been more honest with , some, dates commitments. Like you state that something would be able to be addressed before september. Which oufcourse sucks since that means we need to give you 40 more dollars to get the game we already had and payed. But overall i think we are in the right track, way too slow and with a co$t but at least on the right track.

        • Titans crest of alpha lupi chest piece needs a buff. It should be just like the hunters new wormhusk helmet that regens health on dodge. You should regen health on activating the barricade when wearing the crest of alpha lupi. Again hunters get the best of everything for Crucible. Op jump, op dodge, op exotics like wormhusk helmet. Seriously hunters over Run crucible. Titans need full Titan skating back and a buff to a lot of the exotic armor pieces. Warlocks need full warlock skating/bunny hopping back and a buff to all of their exotics. In Crucible every game is 80% or more hunters.

          • Enjoyed what little content you have given us with warmind but you need to step your game up as this isn’t going to last until September (it isn’t going to last till end of may to be fair). Most people are already doing the milestone once a week log in and your “event” in July isn’t going to keep people going so the numbers will drop again very quickly. Faction grind is never worth doing I did the first 1 hoping for something exciting and instead got told to go and grind p-events and lost sectors which I had already been doing to death in the game and was bored so when the second came out with the same things I just didn’t bother. I just hope you have made some serious changes to the event to keep some people entertained for that week. You need to do something or your numbers will drop again and this time might not be salvageable.

          • It's nice that you're going to react to the feedback on the broken reward system, with Heroic Strikes being particularly unrewarding. However, I believe the rarer drop (every 3-5 strikes) should scale to your current power level and drop 2-3 levels above. If you make this a static drop that caps at 360 without mods, you will have the exact same complaints again, especially since the patch is 2 weeks away and even solo players will be at this power level by then. Cmon guys, do this right and don't be so uptight about our progression and stop being so stingy with our loot. And please don't pat yourself on the shoulders too hard for the "sweet loot" from escalation protocol. It took us numerous tries and hours of blood, sweat and tears to clear Wave 7. And all we got was a lousy class item one level above our current one. That's bittersweet at best.. last edit: People ask for LFG or matchmaking in your game. No offense to your web designers, but you're improving on a feature nobody wants to use in the first place. Please swallow your pride for once and listen to your community.

            • I'm really confused now. In D1 we ran into this same situation.nobody was running heroic strikes because there was nothing to gain until you put strike specific loot in them. Now on D2,that has been implemented for nightfall strikes.theres a large portion of your community that already only runs heroics for milestones

                Decent TWAB, more like those. Now if we could know the thought process of giving out the same Raid set for the third time, that'd be great.

                • The crucible is biased, my hitbox is bigger than everybody else's, I am spawned no where near m team but the enemy team spawning each other, I get shot through corners before I even get to the corner, my shots disappear, my health regency is slower than my enemies even though my recovery is higher and my health fells lower as well compared to enemies. This fells like intention biased against me like you treat me with disrespect. I'm not asking for the crucible to be rigged in my favour only to be on the same page as everyone else. The crucible is supposed to be fair competition but biased breaks that, fair competition in multiplayer games is a legal requirement so biased is illegal. If you treat me with respect and care for fair play in the crucible for all players you will cancel this week's trials and postpone iron banner until this is investigated band fixed.

                    • I'm gonna start with a positive. I think it's great that you have such a timely response to the heroic strike reward system. That's encouraging. I and many others think you're lying through your teeth about a few things, though. Ranked MM would absolutely be better than whatever you're using now. And you've used this kind of system before! Are we sure this company created Halo? Look through the comments on this post alone, you'll see many players posting of the extremely lopsided matches in competitive currently. As far as your comments regarding a solo que splitting the playerbase in an unhealthy way, I'd like to point something out: At this point in the franchise's history I don't think anyone in this company is qualified to know [i]anything[/i] with that level of certainty. You don't have the best record of getting it right on the first try in the eyes of the players. Take a page from the drivel you were using to spin how ridiculous your progression system for Warmind is. You hem and haw and tell us how "surprise, this wasn't the final outcome of the progression model, we just need to do it bit by bit to make sure you all like it!" Pretend like you actually mean what you say about listening to the customers and tweaking the formula slightly to see what sticks. Add a priority for solo to solo just like you have with connection and skill, see how bad it splits the player base. I'm interested to see where this franchise goes. But to be fully honest, at this point I doubt I'm in for the Sep. expansion.

                    • Glory point earning system is garbage. There's a reason why Overwatch places you at a skill rank and give you the appropriate points. If everyone starts at zero and fights people at their rank, and they're matched well so they win some and lose some, ain't nobody climbing glory tiers.

                      So yeah. I am just here wondering why nobody apparently hasn't found the Stranded Terrains Nightfall specific loot. Is it really in the game or is it time-gated and the twitter post was just false hype to generate playtime hours from people trying to find something not currently available Edit : I am inclined to believe there is no loot and this was just a twitter post used to bolster log in numbers

                      • TWAB answered some questions about the crucible ranking system, except for the most important one: Why don't Trials and Iron Banner count towards rank? These 2 events ARE crucible activities. They should count. Answer that.

                      • Change back the Silicone Neuroma scope. Now, it looks like every other sniper scope. If you're not going to change it back, tell us the reason you needed to change it.

                      • Long-winded rambling ahead! Progression is where this game fails the most. In a way I question why it is even there if everything could work like in PvP. PvE power progression is an illusion anyway. All enemies would perform basically the same way with or without light levels but everything that drops for you would be immediately usable and would remain relevant if you [i]choose[/i] to use the drop. This immediately sounds like a better game too. Naturally some scenarios would require touching but generally speaking if difficulty is desired it can be achieved by adding more enemies and adding [i]new[/i] more powerful enemies with different abilities and variations of same template with different gear. One neglected option is experience and levels. If a player knows he/she has something to gain for shooting an alien in the face, the player will behave accordingly. For some reason this grinds to a halt soon after lv15. This is a huge unexplored terrain for Destiny: player empowerment, control and choice. Look at the successful titles with character progression and see what they do what players enjoy. Get experience, get levels, get skill points, acquire new skills, upgrade skills and stats. Give so many choices the player will agonize over them and will try several different builds. Progression within gear is a great factor in longevity and enjoyment too. Imagine players discussing and comparing the virtues of two Better Devils: One modded for close range rapid fire and the other for long range sniping with pistol scope. Don't even get them started on all the other little modifications! What the game misses is evolving pieces of gear into [i]characters[/i]. Something players invest emotion into through their own play and something they can experience in a very tangible way. Currently shooting something feels rather meaningless and you get a weapon you cannot use for your troubles. Btw...do not even mention raids and progression.

                        Y'all must really -blam!-ing hate titans. Please stop with those big ass sholders pads. Or put in a football game mode so It makes sense. Edit: in general Titans are way to massive. God look at the D1 Titans, they were perfect in size.

                          I’m glad that they addressing the mid game game progression and the Heroic Strike rewards issue sooner than later. Overall, a pretty solid TWAB. Edit: In reference to the replies I'm getting, of course I'm mad about the Brick Wall that Bungie deliberately built to halt solo player progression. However, I'm glad that they are acknowledging that Brick wall, and that they plan to do something about it on the 29 of May. Bungie isn't known for acknowledging or fixing problems in that short a period of time so I thought I'd give credit where credit is due. I'd much rather have a developer -blam!- up something and then fix it a.s.a.p. than have a developer -blam!- up something and then say they fix it a few months from now.
