Who here doesn't like massive online PVP fights? I do, and if you don't, the regular crucible is just for you so refrain from any hateful comments please :D
Now that I've gotten that out the way. I would like to introduce you all to my new destiny pvp game mode. It's very raw, & I haven't thought THAT much into it, but here is the gist... Of #TheJungle
On the loading screen, there will be a new planet, which the new game mode will be held on. On this planet, will feature some of the strongest alien life form known to the Destiny universe. I'm talking level 40 ahkamara Dragons roaming the skies, patrolling their territory willing to strike down anyone trespassing. Fallen strong holds, hive infestations.. And perhaps other ew enemies? Surely new wild life would have to make an appearance on this planet.
But best of all..? It's open season. On every guardian there. Massive 30-50.. Hell.. 100 If possible... Player lobbies.. Where anything goes. Only the strong will survive. Forming alliances maybe the key...
You are sent here to fight your way back into freedom. The only way though is to be the last 6 guardians standing. ( hinting that this could be the pvp version of raiding? )
Only those 6 will regain their freedom, and other rewards.. If they are lucky.
This mode will require true survival tactics.. For they will not only be hunted by other guardians fighting for their own survival and freedom.. But from the various wild life inhabiting this hell of a planet. Radars? Gone. You will have to truly HUNT, guardians. Your senses and savvy will come into play here without a doubt. One would be foolish to run blindly into undiscovered territory to only find a team of 6 waiting to collect their heads... Or... Even worse... A queen ahkamara?
Those "useless" blade dancers than can go invisible? Yeah. Watch out for them. For they will no longer be on your radar and are fully capable of wiping an unaware team.
Those sun singers with self res? You'll need it.
Imagine how useful those titan bubbles would be upon an ambush?
Guardians. Something of this nature is what we need. Something to truly test how legendary we are. Level advantages will DEFINITELY matter here in the dark, rainy, evil jungle. Also, I believe they should rescale our health to avoid quick easy 1 shot kills from shotguns and such.
This game mood could change the way we see destiny. It could be a GREAT way to add an alternative way to reach new level caps for players who simply do not want to raid or play pve based content.
And what other way to brag by saying... "Yes, my team & I hunted & destroyed everything & everyone in the jungle this week. Check out my new _____"
Does this not excite you? Imagine the thrill. Imagine the epic fights clan versus clan. Imagine the strategic planning... Having your blade dancer slowly creep the jungle to scout out the land for enemy contact... Imagine ambushing unaware guardians.
Imagine taking down the queen of the ahkamara and getting the almighty ______ as a drop. ( imagine if you were only able to get the drop of your clan made it out of the jungle victorious? )
This can be something great guys. With your help, because i know I did not cover many aspects.. And support from everyone, we can eventually bring the jungle to life in future content of destiny. It would be unrealistic to expect this soon. Maybe in destiny 2? Maybe... Just maybe..
If you support the idea of #TheJungle , please guys.. BUMP THIS. I want Deej to see this. I love destiny and will continue to play it lol. There's just so much potential within this game.
Leave all your comments and feed back here. Have a great day guardians.
Edit: 1 this is a very raw idea, that's why I need support and ideas from you all to help bring this to life! Every comment will be read and replied to asap. Try to bring this to the eyes of as many guardians as possible.
Edit 2. You only gain super energy from kills, so people couldn't just camp & only go out when their super is full. Intellect increases the amount of energy you receive per kill.
Edit 3: this is getting a lot more support than I thought, I appreciate it all! Bump this and share the link you guys. We can make this happen.
Edit 4: WE ARE TRENDING GUYS. Keep the comments and feed back coming, a few of you have posted some really great comments and ideas. Be sure to message me if you'd like to further the discussion.
Edit 5: almost 300 likes guys keep it up. Loving the feedback. This is beginning to mold into something. If we can keep it alive long enough Deej is more than likely to notice it. #TheJungle #TheJungleHypeTrain
Edit 6: NOW AT 400 GUYS. The amount of support for this idea was so unexpected, I appreciate every last comment. All opinions and suggestions are welcomed and I WILL be reading and replying to as many of them as I can in between work & sleep. Let's keep it up!! #TheJungle #TheJungleHypeTrain
Edit 7: Still Trending and almost at 500 guys that's awesome. I've been talking to a few of you via PM to further discuss some new ideas introduced to me and it's coming along way! As always, all feedback, comments, suggestions etc are welcomed. We all want this game to continue to grow, it'll take us all for that to happen! Appreciate the ongoing support guys. Again, thank you. I will be posting some ideas from you all that I feel would be a great addition to #TheJungle within the next 24 hours. Be patient guardians, these 12 hour shifts at work are killing me lol.
Edit 8: We have hit 500. Wasn't expecting this much support from you guys. I have seen some amazing ideas. This is the type of stuff we need to be putting out on the forums if we want to continue to improve this game. Only if we can get DEEJ to see this!!

Well, I'm sitting here just getting off from work, stuck on base, and of course I start thinking about destiny. And I read this post and began thinking again... I want this idea to grab the attention of Deej or Cozmo.. Anyone! Even if it's just them saying "hell no that sucks". I've come up with more ideas and I just want to share them with anyone really. I had a little bit of support when I posted this awhile ago and I want this idea to come back to life. I'm sure a lot of people would enjoy this type of game mode. So feel free, join me on conversation.. #TheJungle #WelcomeToTheJungle

For those just seeing this post, keep in mind that the original post was made well over 4 months ago lol. It was a very raw idea. But I think this would be a great new timed event or something they can add to Destiny 2? Hopefully.
Edit 11: 02/01/16 10:33AM
If any of you guys have played the division... This is kind of how I imagine #TheJungle would be, of course in outer space though with giant aliens and monsters and us guardians.
Of course no big updates will be implemented in Y1 so this would be a good idea for Destiny 2... They have a lot of item to make this work. Let's try to gain the attention of bungie again with this post!
Edit 12: 03/15/16 10:12PM
SOOOOOOOO... I'm not saying the division took my idea because obviously the game was in development way longer than a year ago but look at the similarities between my idea and the dark zone... I made this post in 2014 <---
Give it a look and spread the word so we can get a game mode similar to this in Destiny 2! I'll start making daily updates on this post again!

THIS IS AMAZING BUMP!!!
-
Bungie would never do anything like this on Destiny....I love this idea and want it. But realistically I'll never see anything of this proportion..
-
Now this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky, And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack.

they say that the World of "Destiny" is at war..... i dont see a war happening. i used to game me some Halo. and THAT is a war. you are ACTUALLY at war in Halo. war vehicles, NPC troops running around fighting, dieing, assisting. DESTINY HUGELY lacks contents and i mean EXACTLY what that sounds like. i dont see a war, nothing. even the [i]"story campaign"[/i] lacks action. DLC is barely 2 weeks old. and already there is nothing to do, lack of content yet again. DLC just added 1 more thing to do out the day or week then stop. sad honest truth really that is. if you give it a moments thought about how a game and worlds campaign story at war should be like. just refer to Bungies previous title "Halo" and now compare that to "Destiny" you will notice how much content Destiny lacks for a game supposed at war.

Edited by Osprai: 12/21/2014 2:58:31 AMi'd play. Every 2 minutes it put's a 3 second waypoint on all enemies in the area. that way camping until the game ends is eliminated
-
I dont think the systems will be able to handle it
-
I have my hesitations, I am not certain this would be something I would enjoy... However, I definitely see the potential, and it could also be really fun. Consider me in favor.
-
You got this off that Batman YouTuber guy didn't you
-
This is so awesome I really hope bungie sees
-
I would love this. The big maps in crucible feel so empty with only 12 players. MAG had 250 player online (Although I think it was kinda weird how they did it) Technology and development have come along way since then so by now this should be a very reachable idea.
-
Love #thejungle idea. I have thought about PvE/PvP crossover over since the beginning. Bottom line: I want more opportunities to prove my legendary status by battling against other guardians. Like PvE, which has the raid as its multi-tiered top level event, PvP needs the same. What about randomly designating certain Patrols as "Hotspots," wherein level advantages were enabled and fire teams could challenge each other out in the open. Perhaps glimmer/rep waging could be involved? The Iron Banner have not satisfied me as the top level PvP event at all. Oh, and can we get a Juggernaught mode? One overpowered guardian (sword bearer) must be taken down by a FFA of other guardians. After you kill the swordbearer you become them. You only get points when you kill as the swordbearer. Let me know what you guys think. #pvp #pvpxpve #crucible
-
That would be so -blam!-ing awesome, which is exactly why it won't happen
-
If I wanted massive PvP I would go play Planetside 2 (which coincidentally I do)
-
Yep bump #awesome
-
This is a great idea! It's a shame bungie is allergic to good ideas though...
-
Bump cause this sounds awesome
-
Great idea
-
BUMP THE POOP OUTTA THIS
-
Idea sounds great, but not with the current state of connection in the Crucible. Red bars are everywhere.
-
Destiny servers can barely keep 12 people in a game lmao
-
Edited by rreeferpaste: 12/21/2014 6:03:21 AMI'd play it
-
Never gonna happen though
-
I say just make the destiny multiplayer like battlefield. That would be awesome.
-
As good as this sounds, all your doing is getting your hopes up. All of the ideas we've given bungie and they haven't implemented any. I doubt they'll try this either, unfortunately :(. Also, I doubt their servers were designed to hold move than 16 players per instance. But I would be cool though, for sure. I'm just not getting my hopes up.
-
Bump!!!

Nice concept, but two problems: 1. Snipers. They kill the fun. The only *big* pvp map we have (skyshock maybe?) is already a sniper playground. In your mode I'd get shot three times before I even knew there was anyone around, much less even knowing which direction to take cover from. 2. Finding each other. In order for this map to truly allow "hunting" with tons of players, it'd have to be HUGE. And then when last 12 people are left, I could see them wandering around for days in that huge map without ever happening to encounter each other or even knowing with direct to find the other team...
