I'm a beta player with well over 1,000 hours clocked. I've done pretty much everything in the game to date. I love Destiny, I am not a Destiny hater. But enjoying something doesn't mean we should not push for constant improvement. Year 1 has been a fun but flawed experience. A lot of mistakes have been made and a lot of learning has taken place. From the start of year 2 excuses are no longer acceptable from Bungie. We expect all of the learning to be put to good use. What does leaving year 1 problem behind mean? I think we should expect the following: - No more obvious raid cheeses, for example despawning enemies or pushing/falling off cliffs. - QA weapons for obvious issues such as Black Hammer. Black Hammer was a raid weapon that didn't work in the raid. That is inexcusable. - Improved AI, no more sitting on a rock to avoid or delay encounters. PoE and Crota's End are culprits. - I've removed the leashes line after much thought. I want enemies to pursue us though and not give up when we enter a certain area. Strikes are big culprits currently. - No more skipping sophisticated encounters in favour of cranking the difficulty dial to 11 - No more dumb loot drops. A player should never get two Vex Mythoclast in one run etc. - Weapon balancing and fix patches issued regularly. Black Hammer was fixed after Crota's End's relevance expired. Necrochasm will be 6 month old when it finally becomes worthy of welding for reasons other than laughs. - No more invincible cheats in PVP. You have the stats in real time, act upon them. - No more loot not being received because all slots are full. You know storage space is insufficient. - No more blue engrams awarded to players who get 40 kills in crucible. - And finally a wishful dream, no more players getting booted because Destiny has barebones networking in place. I love Destiny, I have enjoyed year 1 but now you have to put 365 days of feedback into action. Do not let us down. EDIT 1: Something obvious I forgot that many have said is for better efforts at storytelling or rather some effort at all. I got use to no story so didn't even think about that. EDIT 2: Even though I stated things clearly here there are several who don't get it. I understand that bugs and glitches and cheeses will always exist. What should not exist is the same bugs and glitches and cheeses. Armed with knowledge of year 1, year 2 should be a better experience for everyone. EDIT 3: We are trending, thank you guardians for your support. We all love Destiny and want year 2 to be fueled by the wisdom gained in year 1. EDIT 4: I've changed the title from 'year 1 - no excuses' to 'year 1 - Leave year 1 problems in the past' as 'no excuses' has created a misconception that year 2 should be perfect. EDIT 5: Nearly 150 shows of support and 600 comments. Thank. This thread is evolving like the game is. We've all walked a similar path in Destiny, we don't want to retread through the same problem areas as we have already. EDIT 6: It seems some of the community did not get Black Hammer until the problems were fixed. Black Hammer dropped for many in December 2014. The perks 'white nail' and 'hive disruptor' conflicted leading to the latter perk being disabled and only being fixed around May 2015 some 6 months later. As a minimum, all raid weaponry should be tested to make sure they will work as intended in the raid. EDIT 7: It also appears that there are the usual people who read the title and think this is a self-centered post. Any one who has taken the time to read through the original pre-edit content (thank you if you have) will know that this is about highlighting common issues we experienced in year 1 and not having them carry over to year 2.
