This would be an awesome feature

Would be awesome but I doubt it could happen on a console. Especially on a cross gen game.

Have like 12 or 15 guardians fighting off waves of a bunch of enemies. That would be awesome.

This is an awesome idea for a public event!

Yes!!! This could be a day long strike event, with waves of enemies that scale up and down in numbers and firepower!

oh hell yeah that would be soo freaking awesome.

Let us fight dark versions of all the players that join. They're the ones that will attack the wall.

Years ago, in the days of MUDs, there would be a couple huge events per year. They were public events on steroids because they took weeks to complete. Kobold encampments would start appearing near the main cities, which would lead to the players having to defend against a large invasion at a specific day and time. Or a high-level mob would go on a rampage outside its territory and have to be beaten back. I would love if Destiny took a page from that book. I think they plan to.

That sounds cool

very good idea like in straship troopers on planet P defending the fortress awesome since bungie claimed anyways that the fallen try to breach the wall

That would be great! I would like to add another part of the event, where in the ship dock. We have a large transport ship that moves us all to the wall. Since there would probably be a limit on how many people will be in the instance. How about making the scale of the event to support 15+ people. Imagine a drop ship style entrance, where The Hive is coming from below, the Fallen are stealthily scaling the wall like the Wildlings from Game Of Thrones. And later into the instance The Cabal crash into the wall and the Vex teleport in from deep below he Wall. The objective is mainly teamwork and not zerging. 5 players have to defend the bottom, 5 have to defend the side of the wall from scaling enemies, and another 5 will be using the air artillery to shoot down incoming vessels. Each would have an essential role The Bottom team is diffusing bombs that will allow the Hive to creep in. The Mid Team will be fighting fighting the drop ship waves that have openings. The Tops Team will be shooting vessels and dealing with drop ships, taking them down and fighting off a few waves. There is another role for +5 people (making it 20) to rotate and provide support. The waves will be so strong that there will be a need for 5 or so people, but it will still scale to the amount of people. But the last role is that players much reach an outer portion of the wall and decide for an aerial ground bombardment or a ward of some sort of defense system that will ward off the enemies. Now this is where it gets fun and complicated. If the team decides to zerg, there will be a repercussion, they won't be able to keep up with the amount of tasks to do and will slowly get more overwhelmed especially with bosses finding their way in... But then again all these enemies hate each other and a huge battle will ensue where they will all fight each other. Unfortunately the longer one spot (Bottom, Mid, Tops) remains unattended...lets just say the enemy starts drilling through the wall. And when that happens its over. I guess the hardest part would be "what if we lose?" well I guess the Vanguard will pull a plan B. Collapsing the wall and orbital bombarding the surrounding ground. Idk about the ending I don't get paid to think!! I don't get paid at all!

ABSOFREAKINGLUTELY! Guardians have been screaming for something like this since the Beta went live, but this is probably the first time it hit the top of the trending list! Thanks for not letting the flame die out! Bungie keep your ears open and listen good. Ok as for what the battle should be like I agree with most of what Erberstar thought up. The consequence if we lose being that we have to successfully perform a mission to take back a section of the city before the next battle, or else our enemies engage us in battle deeper and deeper inside the city. Eventually reaching the Tower with a very hard Boss mission to recapture the Tower. The Recapture mission would also only let you take back small section of the city at a time. The only thing I would change about Eberstar's idea is that the BIG BATTLE public event like he describes with all of our enemies attacking at once only happens once a month. The rest of the time it's the individual races by themselves attacking one of the many different sections of the wall that Erberstar described. That way we have time to level up ourselves and all of our gear so we are properly prepared to defend our city against our foes that level scale accordingly.

Bump. Would play the crap out of a 15+ guardian event with tons and tons of mobs and you had to defend somthing

One problem if you fail then what the game is over

[quote]The Last City Invasion (Public Event)! All Guardians must defend the Wall as a sudden Public Event. MAKE IT HAPPEN, BUNGIE! #makeithappenbungie[/quote] This is a great idea

This is one of the best ideas

Am I the only one who thinks "SIE SIND DAS ESSEN UND WIR SIND DIE JAEGER!" when op said "protect the wall"

Bump
