Welp. Six months and we got Dark Below 2.0. Actually, no, wait, we got Dark Below 0.5.
But oh, since it's free I can't complain about it, right? No.
Just because it's free, it doesn't mean it deserves no criticism. Imagine if they charged you 40 bucks for this update. They've done it before with Dark Below. Hey, everyone remember how TDB was a 40-dollar "expansion" that only had six missions, two strikes and a raid? Remember how everyone wasn't really happy with that?
Now we get a free update and they give us less than 50% of what TDB offered us. What, couldn't be arsed to do more because you don't get 40 bucks from everyone now?
"OHHHH, BUTT IT'Z FWEEEEEE!!!"
Stop. This is not an excuse. If the April Update contained only one emote and three sparrows and it was free, I bet you'd still be telling me to not complain.
This wouldn't be such a problem if they released this update back in December or January, you know, the time where everyone started to complain of PvE content drought? And in fact, I'm willing to admit that if they had released this update in December or January, I'd be praising it.
But the problem is that this was released half a year after TTK dropped. I thought the AU 2016 was going to be awesome. I mean, after six months surely they would come up with something great, right? Something bigger than TDB and HoW? Finally! I can forgive Bungie!
But no, instead we get one mission, one strike, a revived PoE, a 320 Void Edge with Will of Light (great infusion fuel, though, I'll give it that), some "improvements" and a whopping 15 increase in Light level. Byoutiful. What were you doing for six months?
Edit: I get it. It's free, and therefore I should be grateful. And while something is better than nothing, remember that it has been SIX MONTHS. By this time back in Year 1 we already had TDB and HoW.
Edit 2: Dark Below was 40 bucks where I live.
Edit 3: I'll say this again.[u] [b]DARK BELOW WAS PRICED 40 BUCKS WHERE I LIVE.[/b][/u]
Edit 4: [b]If this update was released back in December or January (you know, the time people started to complain about PvE content drought) I would have absolutely no problem with it, and hell, I'll be praising the update like the sun.
At the end of the day, it's all a matter of timing. And while something is better than nothing, it also needs to be something more substantial if we had to wait nearly seven months for something new. As is, the update is fine, but it could have been a little bit more. PoE is good, but the Pretender to the Throne quest was up and over in one hour.[/b]

I love you for this post. I can't stand the desticles defending this half assed update. This content won't last 3 weeks. Sad because I would gladly drop 30 on a good expansion for this game

"update" not equal to "expansion". That's the first mistake that many, many people just aren't getting through. We've been screwed over enough that we should just stop expecting anything from bungie anymore. They've ruined their name; no more lofty expectations, but don't be surprised when they come up with something nice either, because thats the precedent they are trying to keep up with. If they are giving a morsel and hype a meal, say it was only a morsel you idiots or the like, not where's my meal - or be extreme and complain there's no buffet like yesteryear. I agree with you that something like this should have happened QUITE some time ago, and there are things they've done that they honestly never should have had to, like putting year 1 exotics back out there like its fresh of the press, never before seen - especially when you cant even go to the kiosk to rebuy the HoW exotics' y2 versions. Frankly, when they decided to shaft anyone not american with double the pricing, if not more in some cases, that should have been it for you, and amercians as well to get them to think. I know the part ive played in that, and ill leave it as is. Games not worth that much, would've been time to let them know that. I can only hope that those that roam this forum stop looking towards bungie on that pedestal with longing and finally take it down to where their treatment of us places them, andthat in turn, bungie works towards reearning that pedestal - but i doubt bungie will see themselves in such a light before things become drastic, if at all.

The dark below was an expansion this is an update understand the difference?

Easy solutions you can take... 1. Sell the game so that you don't get annoyed by what destiny offer or lack thereof. 2. Don't download the update 3. Don't buy anymore possible future dlc 4. Throw away the game Apparently this game is pissing you off so for your health and sanity I suggest you get rid of it. This way you won't get annoyed by it and we "desticles" don't have to listen to you bitching and whining. So do us and you a favor, get rid of the game.

I think it's fair to criticize bungie for not delivering enough content to keep up with demand, but i think that expectations need to be pulled back because it's obviously not going to change. Giving mature, constructive feedback and letting bungie know we want more by not playing is the only real way that we can get that message across. As long as we keep playing and buying silver, we are only proving their point that this is sufficient. You can get on the forums and tell Bungie that they are trash and that the game is horrible and they should be ashamed of themselves, but at the end of the day the only message that matters is the time spent and the money spent. People spend time and money on things they like. If we didn't like it, we wouldn't buy silver (admittedly I never have) and we wouldn't play the game. The expectation is that we should be getting big, frequent updates akin to WoW, but for a year and a half Bungie has proved this isn't the case. So why would that change now?

except in the dark below, shotguns were amazing. Now they're slow and clunky. I'd love a free update that actually took us back to the dark below.

4 AntwortenI hope you understand that this update was worked on by the live team only. That means that only a fraction of bungie's man power went into this. Why is that? They happen to be working on another major expansion for the fall and an entire sequel for next year.

name a better game & go play it. bitching over money you spent months ago is peasant mode.

It's an update. We're lucky we even got extra stuff.

Idk, I'm not complaining. I like the Poe update and the chroma gear. For the first time in a long time, I can't wait to get home and grind for more gear.

Amount of content, sure was similar to Dark Below, quality of content more like HoW....its my opinion that TTK was about the same as Dark Below by way of making entire activities irrelevant unless you just want to do it for teh lolz

Can't believe how much people moan about the cost of this game. Back in the day you bought a game for 50 quid played it till complete and that was it. Now games last full cycle till the next one....which is pretty awesome if you enjoy the game...and there putting all the efforts into destiny 2 now...don't you want that to be great? I feel the force of bitchy 12 year olds that want everything for nothing nowadays growing in this community. Go out doors and get some fresh air if your bored wearing your thumbs down to the bone playing a game your not enjoying.

You also have to remember most of TDB and HOW was already there, just cut content. So the dlc was re packaged content. Ergo the draught because they ran out of content to give us and had to actually create something. Not really an excuse just something to remember.

TLDR - don't bother he is just crying about the update!

Lol I totally forgot how bad bungle and cracktivision screwed you guys with DLC pricing.
