About our useless ships...

(A little “fan” service at the end, that’s for you DR TORGUE!) Dear Bungie and The Forums, [spoiler]TL;DR Bungie should add in dogfights and make some other destinations for us to find and explore.[/spoiler] Hi! It’s me! Jubi! And today I am here to write to you about the ships twin your game. “Yeah?” says dmg(control)04 or a random Bungie employee, “What about ‘em?” “Well,” I respond, “they’re f**king useless!!!” Seriously! WTF?! The first thing I think of when I think of sci-fi anything is Star Wars (plz don’t kill me Disney!). I always think of the awesome dogfights therein. Does Destiny have anything remotely close to that? No. Also, what is the fact that even though humanity was forced into the space of a small country? But we are able to sit in orbit for hours on end and encounter nothing? Hello?! Is the Vanguard that stupid?! If we are able to do that then why haven’t we sent up space stations, orbital weapons, and shit?! Anyways, since I have more to say that doesn’t include the stupidity of the Vanguard, let’s move on. Aside from some ships looking AWESOME, ships in Destiny have no real point. We can’t fight anything with them, we can’t explore, etc. let’s change that. Dogfights, exploration, and free drift should all be options. I could switch everyone’s ships in the game to a random one there would be no difference. So since we all know what dogfights are let’s get right into this. Since our ships are relatively the same I think I have a way to diversify them. Since our ships all have a tier, each ship you receive will start with a gun of the same tier. Except for exotic ships which already have a full weapon system with a corresponding theme. A weapon system consists of a gun, a missile launcher, and heavy artillery. You can get these by doing the nightfall, aircraft related missions or strikes, or killing enemy ships (gives you enemy themed weapons). Or buy them from Amanda Holiday. It’s pretty straightforward from there. There are tons (literally) of planets and moons in our solar system. And I don’t get why we can’t explore them, we have a ship that can exceed the motherf**king speed of light! But Bungie can do what No Mans Sky did, but better. You see the problem with No Mans Sky is that they made a planet generation engine. Not creating the worlds by hand. I’m not asking Bungo to make the full solar system, just a few planets to explore. I mean, let’s face it if they can’t make the gameplay interesting than let’s let them do something they can do well... world design and soundtrack design. I would love to go to Europa and get a little ice critter and make it my pet. I am not asking for much, just a few planets, hell just recycle Venus and Mars and that’s two, make a few moons and boom. More content for us to discover and explore. I LOVE what they did with Nessus and would love to see more places like it. Alright, so free drift. It is really most basically orbit but you are drifting in space instead of orbit. There. All my topics, except for that “fan” service. So in my previous post (Titled: Alternative to Sparrows?) was received pretty well. And someone asked for me to do one on the Titan sea monster. That, someone, was DR TORGUE. And here we are. So once you get your Ahamkara you can go to Sloane to receive the quest to get your sea monster. You need to gather materials to make a submarine then take and tame it then bam. You got a sea monster. I am not going to go any farther into details because this is already very long. Try and guess which YouTuber’s intro style I am using! PEACE! -JubilantDart351 Edit b/c trending: Thank you so much for the support! It means so much to me! Although we don’t have many upvotes I still love that you guys did this!

    Few ideas: (probably already mentioned) Components that allow the ship to: - Orbital bombardment - Perform strafe runs - Transmat obstacles to work as cover as well to crush enemies with - Use the transmat capabilities as a loadout profile system. The better the ship+transmat mod the more loadouts you could have and the faster they would be in use. While some of the ideas for additional game modes sound fun, I think the game would be better served by expanding the existing modes with additional gimmicks. EDIT: Your ship would also function as your vault.
