This was a rant post I made a few months back calling out the people complaining about Year 1 legendaries not ascending into Year 2 quality. It became quite popular, with many criticizing me for calling Destiny an "MMO". Whatever you think it is, it was never the intended point of the thread, but quickly became it. I shut the post down due to how each side would viciously attack each-other, and how it just got annoying after a while.
It seems I was right about some things, and wrong about others in the end. About a couple weeks after my post, the first livestream for TTK revealed Exotic Blueprints, and how not all Exotics would ascend into Year 2 (Though it still seems to be up in the air if they will ascend eventually, but until then R.I.P MIDA)
I also said it wouldn't really matter, as the legendaries would be replaced with better guns. I think I was right on that one, as I am loving the style and capability of these new guns, although I know some would probably think the opposite.
The new additions in TTK are a mixed bag for me in total, but overall I think the good outweighs the bad.
In the end, I really enjoy TTK, and I'm glad that fan attitude towards no Year 1 legendaries going in didn't destroy the community attitude. The guns are great, the story is great, the soundtrack is great, and the overall experience is great. I'm glad Bungie put all their effort into this and really delivered an experience worth the price of admission.
Hopefully this post dies.
But after the constant necrobumps over the last couple months, I doubt it.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand Bungie adds microtransactions.
In the same day.
Well.

If only the majority of the community would actually agree. Bungie is giving people what they want. More content. Be Careful what you wish for.

2 AntwortenToO can't be played with year 1 weapons and that's a huge problem.

I think that raid weapons should be ascendable, and you should be able to pick one pre-ttk weapon to ascend with a one time use item.

1 AntwortenThe snow glows white on the mountain tonight Not a footprint to be seen A kingdom of isolation, And it looks like I'm the queen. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried! Don't let them in, don't let them see Be the good girl you always have to be Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know Well, now they know! Let it go, let it go Can't hold it back anymore Let it go, let it go Turn away and slam the door! I don't care What they're going to say Let the storm rage on, The cold never bothered me anyway! It's funny how some distance Makes everything seem small And the fears that once controlled me Can't get to me at all! It's time to see what I can do To test the limits and break through No right, no wrong, no rules for me I'm free! Let it go, let it go I am one with the wind and sky Let it go, let it go You'll never see me cry! Here I stand And here I'll stay Let the storm rage on! My power flurries through the air into the ground My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast I'm never going back, The past is in the past! Let it go, let it go When I'll rise like the break of dawn Let it go, let it go That perfect girl is gone! Here I stand In the light of day Let the storm rage on, The cold never bothered me anyway!

1 AntwortenI still dont understand y you wouldnt just make all weopons available. Whats wrong with say in 5 or 6 years ppl c you with a gun or piece of amour and say woe that looks sweet do you remember where you got it. And blam hes on a quest to find said piece of sweet loot. Or am i missing somthing with only the ability to run around with the same 100 or so weopons /armour?

5 AntwortenI dont like the way they presented it. No info, no stats, no information on the direction its going, just "were punishing you, bend over...oh and here are some pictures of guns i made, buy my shit" It was fun while it lasted. They can do whatever they want they lost my business. I do like their forums tho. Wish berthesda would hire them to make an eso app

Also why does destiny have to do what all other mmo's do?

2 AntwortenHahaha nice ! Look at all these butthurt kids crying over their bottles (legendarys) being taken away, stop living in the past you cry babies !

17 AntwortenPeople want variety. Closing off the old weapons to make room for the new isn't the answer. The answer is to make the new as good as the old so we WANT to change.

In a normal MMO you don't care because the gear gets better. With Destiny the track record is horrible with making better weapons that people actually want. See any threads that say save the six dreg pride?

Thank you...

3 AntwortenI really hate people that call this game an mmo. You realize professional game developers don't even consider this game an mmo. It's a first person shooter that's all it will ever be. And when you fags of the community realize that then you'll stop complaining all the time. And I won't have to hear you complain how there wasn't enough content in TTK. Get shrekt

Yea take issue with point 3. That was pulled out of that reviewers arse. All MMOs will obsolete your gear but, the crutial difference is they give you the option to re-forge that gear or change your newly acquired, better gear to LOOK like your old gear! Destiny will give you neither option!

1 Antwortenfor weapon im totally fine if we have to change to a stronger weapon but armor I really hope that we can still use it just for our guardians appearance, year 2 armor will bring a lot of customization in our looks new player will wonder where do we get that kind of armor and that's the kind of experience I get when playing MMO because in most MMO you can do transmogrification/re-skin the stronger armor with the skin we wanted

1 AntwortenBearbeitet von ProvingVirus4: 8/6/2015 2:50:39 AMDidn't Cozmo say that Bungie has plans for Raid weapons? Could mean the only Year 1 weapons you can ascend in TTK are Raid weapons.

2 AntwortenAs much as I love Dinklebot, I'm happy that Nolanbot is replacing him. Peter's voice acting lackluster while his actual acting is sublime. (: I'm excited to use new guns rather than old ones; I love my older weapons that I worked so hard to ascend and I'll hold onto them. But I am also super stoked to use new weapons, especially the new foundry weapons. Omolon all the way, baby! I am aboard the hype train & I'm happy for it! Bring it on!

when ppl tell you that this is not an MMO, you just say [quote]people pointing out it isn't an MMO (which is your opinion)[/quote] but when you say it, you make it a fact [quote]Yeah, this game is an MMO by all but name. Just because Bungie says it isn't doesn't mean that's true.[/quote] you are wrong, the game is NOT an MMO, but has MMO like mechanics, with this logic you could call Destiny a hack-n-slash, because you can do that with a relic/sword or as a hunter... and finally read the linked thread, that's how build an argument

I do think raid weapons should be ascendable since they are in a different category, or they should make new weapons drop in VoG. I really hope they bring back fieldscout for snipers in TTK otherwise I am really going to miss my 3 spears.
