Nothing gets fixed if you buy the DLC
Everyone seems to have the same concensus about this game. People have run out of things to do. The casual player seems to think that they are in control of the fate of this game. But 3.5 million players at launch dropping to 1.5 players in just 6 weeks shows that hardcore players and fans of the original Destiny are in control. The only way to see a tangible change to this game is to deny Bungie/Activision what they want, your money. Don't spend your hard earned money on a dlc that will ultimately be the same. No changes, cosmetics, no good guns, pvp group shooting on different maps, and nothing worth the time and money you all work so hard for.

9 RepliesEdited by TheShadow-cali: 10/24/2017 1:42:01 AMYeah, the next DLC with more of the same that 95% of the loot will be dismantled and gamers hanging on to this false hope that "the game will get better" The same gamers that said that about D1 and it took 3 long years. Now it's D2 starting all over with no incentive and gamers are going to say for the next 3 years... "You have to give it time, it will be better" Just what they are lying about to themselves is that it will take until 2020 for that to happen if not longer with this huge mess.

I bought the collectors edition... I honestly believed Craptivision wouldn't be able to control Bungie like this, but it seems like they are. Am i actually the only one who thinks Activision should be boycotted?

5 RepliesUnfortunately i have paid for the collectors edition so i sort of feel the need to play the DLC since i have already paid for them, but if i hadn't i would be with you there.. got me again Bungie, GG.

The first big quality of life update that Destiny 2 will get will be the first expansion, most likely, not these minor DLCs.

Ayyy. A Destiny fan that makes sense. What a rare breed. But this is one of the few points that most people are missing.

Edited by Aeoss_: 10/24/2017 4:08:23 AMMeh. I'm done buying bungie and Activision products. They are nothing but knock off AAA fake clone pushers with re-skin skill. Resell the same cod with different weapons and different maps. Same crap slightly better graphics. Strip destiny down to vanilla. Nerf sparrows. Add four missions in, sprinkle some CG marketing. Oh and make it look better but not 60 frames. Resell it to pc with 60 frames. Mean while even casual gamers are hitting boredom waves... Real smooth they just made destiny 0.5 with better looks. No random rolls. Less content. Less game modes. Less sub class options. Less light machine guns. Less reason to explore. No grimior or codex. What did they really do except a campaign and crank up the graphics a notch? This took 3 years? Even call of duty cranks out better stuff with better micro transactions. I've seen better grinds at a skate park made for legless skaters

[quote]People have run out of things to do.[/quote] So they can pull a Division and give us nothing new at all with marginally better drop rates and tweaked effects? Bungie isn't doing anything for free, even if we don't spend money life goes on.

36 RepliesYou do know that without money, they can't make those changes, right? Wages, company overhead expenses, resource allocation, etc. Kind of need money for that stuff.

Got it... Well, pre-ordered it at least...

1 ReplyEdited by Iccotak: 10/24/2017 2:15:50 AMWatch these two Old Demos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIp7vZuYzoA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTfhrONAp-c (go to about 2:00) When Destiny was first being shown off we were promised a Large Shared World Shooter RPG. That was "Ancient Fantasy" + "Hard Science Fiction". That is what it was initially advertised as and what Year 3 D1 was shaping up to be. The problem is that Destiny 2 has taken the franchise into becoming a game that I simply did not want. We got a standard FPS Skill based shooter with PvP set as end-game. It is trying to use the Halo formula to satisfy the competitive shooters. That design choice does not work with [i]Loot[/i] based games. You're fighting against human players in the Crucible and you're fighting an army of drones in PvE. What makes PvE fun is being a powerful badass what makes the Crucible fun is the competition and proving your better against a real person with access to the same weapons abilities. They're not the same and should not be balanced as such. It is trying to be a jack of all trades but consequently making it a master of none. There are games that do what Destiny does, and better. Making it a competitive PvP is the [u]opposite[/u] of what Destiny was supposed to be and shaping up to be by Year 3. This feels like a slap in the face to the people who stuck around and supported Destiny. Bungie should stop trying to make it Halo when that is a completely different formula. PvP does not work as a core aspect in Destiny. They took what could have been an amazing RPG and made it a simple shooter. Big middle finger to the fans who made the first game successful. [u] People are not happy because Bungie is leaning towards making a standard shooter rather than deliver on the Epic RPG that was originally promised.[/u] The developers needed more time to deliver the game's scope and depth that they originally intended to make. Destiny is made by AAA developers, supported by AAA publishers, and is sold as a $60 game. They already have the money and support they need to make a complete product. The fact that it is not a complete game at launch, and is in reality an incomplete foundation that relies on content updates as well as paid DLCs to add things that should have been in the game in the first place, is unacceptable.

I don't really agree with everything you've stated but changes do need to be made.
