More feedback from day 1 vets
1: When all of my raids were done I would complete the nightfalls for the rep buff and then I would log in EVERY DAY just to plug away at my factions in year 1. Since you've removed that from the game I log in once a week to knock out the raids unless someone needs help and then I go play games on steam.
2: Bungie should know that how you manage the game leading up to Destiny 2 will dictate IF we should be bothered to even buy the game. Currently I am not interested in Destiny at all, I log in currently to help friends but I have no personal stake in logging in.
3: The loot system is insufferable. I've had 2 characters stuck at 319 for almost 2 months now because ghost shells won't drop, I've pretty much given up at this point but I will say as a completionist this system is demoralizing making me stay away.
4: This is the only game that rewards you for having a poor connection in pvp. Maybe you should contact Treyarch, Sledgehammer, or Infinity Ward and figure out what they did.
5: in retail there are customers referred to as "champions" they are the customer that believes in your product and loves using it. The "champion" preaches your brand and I used to champion Bungie but since you don't talk to us anymore a lot of us former champions are directing our friends to other games. This point relates to point 2 a lot. Think about that.

Edited by Ulius: 2/19/2016 11:26:36 AMYou are spot on with all of the five points you made. The loot system is terrible. When they announced that you can infuse weapons and armour across characters I thought great the grind won't be as bad as year 1. However, they have some how managed to make it worse than year 1. Being stuck at 319 on all three characters for months because you are continually getting drops that are of low light or of no use to you just turns you off the game. I finally got a 320 ghost last week after months of being stuck at 319. I now only need a 320 helmet for two of my characters then all three will be at 320. For months though all the game has dropped is loads of 320 artifacts on each character so much so I could open a stall in the tower with the amount of artifacts that I have. The game should at least drop other stuff at 320 so I can level up the rest of my weapons rather than giving me an excessive amount of artifacts I can do nothing with. Destiny is a fantastic game, I love it but currently I'm bored *shirtless* of it. It's gone from something I looked forward to playing to a chore. I can barely stomach doing the raids once a week as they too are a chore as the guaranteed 320 drops from the challenges are dropping you 99% of the time 320 stuff you don't need. To be honest I just want to hit 320 on all three characters and then not touch the game at all until some new decent PvE content arrives as the grind to 320 in The Taken King has been excessive and boring. For this game to last another 8 years it needs a continued steady flow of new PvE content. Bungie can not expect players to continue to repeat the same activities for months on end for little (and in most cases) no reward. I would rather have a steady flow of new content than releases like The Taken King where you can knock out everything pretty quickly and are just left with repeating the same *shirt* over and over again for months on end for higher light. For Destiny to survive the current business and game model has to change.

I remember a time when Bungie stated that PVP would not affect PVE. Then PVP went on to ruin/nerf most of the great Y1 weapons and skill trees...
-
I would still be playing destiny if they hadn't taken out 80% of content at release of ttk everything year one is not useful at all
-
Destiny is no longer a game for serious gamers. Great post.
-
Bump. I agree. I have not played in months and feel much better now. R.I.P. Bumgie.

Treyarch were the people who pioneered disc locked content. They should definitely stay away from treyarch

1 Replyi've been playing Destiny since the Alpha and i haven't been more bored of the game than i have been in the last two months. I've been stuck at 319 since CM dropped and haven't had one 320 Ghost.. EVER.That is all i need to be 320 on my Hunter. I've done CM Golgoroth 9 times and not had ONE body drop..that is the only thing keeping my titan at 319 (along with the ghost) There is also no point in playing Trials or Iron Banner anymore.. Trials drops worthless gear.. even at 9-0 (only primary weapons upto 320.. no thanks, not worth the effort. and Iron Banner, despite playing for days to grind to rank 5, drops even worse gear despite only being a monthly event...

Edited by BraveBlueBerry: 2/3/2016 9:40:52 PMIf we had more pve content with release game would be fine it's lacking so much pve content and the design needs to be bigger in this way more raids and strikes with release 2-3 raids 10-15 strikes with release of d2 will make this a real game it's lacking content if we had another raid released with taken King that was a 320 light raid it would make players work there ass off to get there strikes should be use to grind up to first raid thn raid 1 gear up there to move to raid 2 then off to raid 3 you need to make this games p e content much much more it's a joke right now

5 Replies[quote] contact Treyarch, Sledgehammer, or Infinity Ward .[/quote] sledgehammer brought COD to a new low AW sucked ass. Infinity ward did the same with Ghost. Treyarch is the only one that does a good job anymore with the COD.

3 RepliesI feel the same way my friend. I believe the connection problems are related with trying to make Destiny competitive to try to push Destiny in to MLG(now owned by Activision).

I'm a beta player. I went from loving this game to loathing it. I still sign on and play, and that's just because it's the only game I own. That'll change with the division. As far as destiny 2, I hope bumgie goes bankrupt.

So good! Everyone's starting to realise the steaming pile of sh1t this game/company is.

8 RepliesI'm better than a day 1 vet. I'm a beta player!!!! Suck it

Solid points across the board, number one resonates with me and my friends the most. Tuesday's used to be our "hang out night" 3 Nightfalls and maybe a raid start....now lucky to see 3 people online at once at anytime during the week. Re-tooling the Nightfall was the biggest mistake Bungie made, it kept everyone grinding and playing.

2 RepliesEdited by Leemur26: 2/3/2016 1:36:23 PMMiss the old nightfalls when you actually got good rewards and not low level ghost shells...:( Goodbye Destiny... Oh! And BUMP btw!

1 ReplyLol there's no feedback from day ones because there isn't many of us left!

Hell yeah!

1 ReplyBungie broke crucible to the brink of no return. Year 2 sucks balls. The only thing that could make it better would be to bring old raids back I want to raid VoG like an OG motherf***er again

2 RepliesIn Y1, I would get the nightfalls done first so that I used up my chances for a guaranteed exotic/legendary drop, plus I had the EXP buff. Usually Wednesday, my group would do at least 1 raid, maybe 2 or 3 (in Crota's End Era you could complete all 3 hard raids for the week in a just a couple hours). After that, we played crucible, ran strikes for ships, or we ran more raids to help others through the raids. Even when I capped out, I ran upwards of 8-10 raids a week, sometimes more to try to shepherd new players through the raids or help friends. Now? I just log on to play the raid whenever we have a full team. While the firing of Harold Ryan has given me a spark of hope, there is really no other reason to play. I WANT to play crucible because it is the only place I can use my favorite sniper rifle (Patience/Time), BUT after 3 games the other night, I was done. Why? I had the same exact titan fist of havoc me twice within a 15 second span. Absolutely IMPOSSIBLE for him to have gotten his super back up again. But that alone wasn't even enough. A voidwalking warlock was on his team and in the same clan and he hit me with a novabomb on a capture plate, and then almost immediately again after I spawned! I reported both for cheating, but will any action be taken? I highly doubt it. I have hope for Destiny still and I am willing to be patient seeing as new leadership is in place. Hopefully, Mr. Parsons will take the game in an exciting new direction and pull it out of this out-of-control death spiral. But they need to first fix the RNG system, the light progression system, and show the willingness to do something about cheaters in the crucible. Otherwise, it really doesn't matter who is that the wheel - this game will still be an unforgiving grind which is no longer fun.

Funnily enough I just created a similar post myself: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/189867395/0/0 Seems quite a few of us right now have the same feelings.

It seems more and more like this game is a low budget b horror movie who ran out of funds for corn syrup so they switched to ketchup!! It's horrid

I remember everything. Release day player here.

I agree. Not a Day 1 vet but I bought it very nearly on Day 1...I've enjoyed Destiny in waves since then. I'd max out, get bored, play something else until a new update brought about something else to work toward...lather, rinse, repeat. I'm at the point where I've lost hope. Destiny 2 will not be pre-ordered unless there's tons of promise and Amazon still has that sweet 20% off deal they've got going these days (which I used on The Division and am mighty glad I did so, even if the DZ needs work). For all the grinding Destiny requires, there's still no guarantee, and that's just pathetic.

Very on point. I miss Etheric Light, as this infusion system is flawed. Not enough variety in loadouts due to the cannibalistic nature of infusion. I'm very cautious about D2.
