[b]DISCLAIMER: There is a lot of material. Please leave feedback, THANKS![/b]
[i]I have been playing since the launch of the beta; ever since the release of the game I have been on the forums.
On various occasions i have provided a number of suggestions and ideas for Bungie. I enjoy playing Destiny, however, now that i have acquired end-game status, i find little to do in-game anymore. My goal is to make a difference and set some gears in motion for better things to come.[/i]
An important note to consider is this: Don't expect a company who is focusing on a new game release (Destiny 2) to adhere to every minimal request in change. Many suggestions are lost in the masses of threads. This should not discourage people from having a voice, and saying what they feel is right. The changes in game that we DO see, are there because we as a community voiced our concerns and Bungie listened.
I'm not asking to spread a thread like a virus and copy+paste it to all corners of the forum to get attention. Bungie is not blind, if they do not reply, it does not mean they do not see what's going on. Remember, [b]a lone light in a dark room shines brightest.[/b]
In my time on the forums, i have dedicated countless hours to my envisioning of an improved Destiny. Not all my ideas are favorable to everyone. There will be people who oppose, and there will be people who discourage, but it is important to understand, that every idea has been carefully thought out.
Below I have created an Archive to showcase my Ideas/Suggestions that i have proposed to Bungie. This list is conveniently placed to pick and choose what you want to read about. If you see something you like in particular, follow the link and it will take you to the original thread. Here you go:
[b]Ammo Synth Shortcut[/b]
[i]“A shortcut to a commonly used feature.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]A fairly simple idea, have the weapon you need extra ammunition for, and have it equipped. Then you can either double tap the touchpad (PS4) or hold it for 2 seconds. That would automatically use a synthesis for your “Currently Equipped” Weapon. You would be able to use the synthesis without opening the menu. If you have no synthesis, it will not work of course.

[/b][/spoiler]
[b]Buff Notifications[/b]
[i]“Get notified when that Synth is ready to use again.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]The same way that “Song of flame”, “Gunslinger’s Trance”, and “Chain of Woe” works. You have a text notification stating that you have certain buffs active. It would be more useful and accessible if there are more application for this feature, such as: “You will now gain additional glimmer fighting vex enemies: 7:32 left.” and “Your Ammo Synthesis is ready for use.” (After cool down).

[/b][/spoiler]
[b]Capture the Flag[/b]
[i]“Bring it back!”[/i]
[spoiler][b]Capture the Flag is a staple multiplayer experience in the “Call of Duty” and “Halo” franchise. This game mode should be added to the crucible (permanent or playlist). If not Capture the Flag, then at least something similar to it.
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/79831639/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Character RE-Customization[/b]
[i]“Changed your mind, eh?”[/i]
[spoiler][b]A simple feature with no impact on the gameplay, only for cosmetics. At the character screen you hold “Triangle/Y” and customize your appearance. After completing certain tasks in game, you unlock cool character add-ons to customize your character with.
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/95810785/0/0/1[/url]
[/b][/spoiler]
[b]Dynamic Weather[/b]
[i]“A pleasantly unpleasant change to weather.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]Well over 5000 votes! Dynamic Weather situations occur randomly and affect gameplay. Some examples include: Dust Storms/Sandstorms on Mars (Reduced Visibility/Slows Character Movement), Hurricanes on Venus (Heavy rain blurs vision and rough winds sways your aim), Blizzards on Earth (Reduced Visibility/Keep moving to avoid frostbite), Lunar Eclipse on the Moon (Darkness EVERYWHERE).
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/91262809/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]A Vault Update[/b]
[i]“This is how it should be.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]The Vault is not just a storage unit. It could be a place where you organize all three of your characters. Open up the Vault and have all your characters displayed. Manage their inventory and make transfers quick and easy. Organize items better with the “Take Half” option. This way you can evenly distribute Ammo Synthesis, Glimmer Buffs, and Telemetries.
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/79952107/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Fair Crucible RNG Loot[/b]
[i]“Everyone wins… something.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]Two Separate loots; Guaranteed and Participation Tickets. Top players in every game get guaranteed loot (Weapons/Armor), EVERYONE undergoes RNG for participation tickets used to by cool stuff (see Participation Rewards Specifics). This way, players can actually receive Weapons/Armor through skill, and even players who did not contribute as much can still reap the spoils of RNG.
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/82575964/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Gunsmith Upgrades Legendary Items[/b]
[i]“Finally, he has something to do…”[/i]
[spoiler][b]The Gunsmith as we know it provides weapons for players level 1-10. Beyond that players would have to rely on drops from Strikes or Crucible. There should be an option with the Gunsmith to upgrade Legendary gear. He would be able to turn 300 weapons into 323, +27 Armor to +30, and +30 armor to +33. The Gunsmith would be perfect for an upgrading service.
[url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/84632726/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Increased Glimmer[/b]
[i]“Money, money, money, moooney…MONEY.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]The title speaks for itself. Although a nice touch to the idea would be that you get a higher glimmer cap with every character you have.
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/85597403/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Level progression ruined with Vanguard[/b]
[i]“Bungie’s greatest mistake”[/i]
[spoiler][b]The current rate of progression is broken. The Vault of Glass had been rendered irrelevant to leveling up. The cause behind it all is the Vanguard/Crucible Gear getting players to level 31 (explained more in detail). Old vanguard/Crucible gear should be added to their shops, and the new gear require level 30 to purchase. This will make the best form of progression available to Destiny alongside many other benefits.

[b]New Raid Mode (Expert Mode)[/b]
[i]“Nightfall is too easy.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]This is to be the hardest challenge in the game, it is meant to be a task that is impossible but can still be done. It rewards you with 331 Raid weapons and 32 armor. Once a new DLC is released, the previous raid gets a new “Extreme” mode. Click the link to find out more!
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/91562382/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Return to Tower [/b]
[i]“Shortcut to save you time!”[/i]
[spoiler][b]When the ghost menu is open, you can hold R2 and Triangle to go to Tower. You use Triangle to go to orbit, although you can bypass going to orbit and go to the tower directly without having to load up orbit. (PS4 Buttons)
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/78467513/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Separate Leveling[/b]
[i]“Reimagining how you see player levels!”[/i]
[spoiler][b]This is a big one, check out both links! (Combination of both)
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/78615406/0/0/1[/url]
[url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/78467545/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Shader Customization[/b]
[i]“Imagine using shaders for more than just your armor!” [/i]
[spoiler][b]Shaders should be given the ability to be attached to a single piece of armor as well as the whole set. This would make people look more creative, and finally put to use those useless shaders that nobody uses. But MOST IMPORTANTLY, I believe shaders should be able to be applied to WEAPONS! This would make customization very unique in destiny, and loads more fun to play.
[url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/76006012/0/0/1[/url][/b][/spoiler]
[b]Sparrow POV Change[/b]
[i]“A wonderful change of perspective.”[/i]
[spoiler][b]If you’ve played GTAV then you’d be familiar with this mechanic. The ability to toggle between 1st person perspective and 3rd person perspective. This would be great, not only for being on top your sparrow, but maybe even walking around the tower or patrolling a planet. Riding your sparrow in the 1st person would make it more exciting.

Leave destiny now while you can, there's so much better things to do with you life than play this excuse of a game, thank you for your time.

I read everyone of them. This is just my opinion. but I think we need to use strong baby steps with Bungie. like not so many suggestions. just a few at a time. in my opinion the game is just becoming hollow. I've played it since the launch, and I have just about came to the end game experience. The game is hollow because all it simply needs is more "stuff". We see Gjallarhorns, and Icebreakers. If they add WAY more exotics that would be great, so you can see one and be like "whoa! that's neat. I want that!" instead of just "icebreaker.." And More customization! Not going to go into huge detail. Just more customization on just about everything. And then extreme mode on raids. Period.

Nice list!!! Here is more 30 very useful ideas https://www.bungie.net/pt/Forum/Post/89901803/0/0

The problem is... Bungie

I strongly believe that exotic weapons and items should just be overall more difficult to obtain. That being said, RNG should not be a substitute for difficulty. The price on exotic items from Xür should be doubled!! But xur should stay at the tower constantly

You nailed it. Bump #DEEJ

I just want to give my $.02 on the gunsmith upgrading items....it is my reckoning that any and all items in the game should be progressively upgradeable. The items already exist in the game as well as the mechanic to do so. This would add variety, re-play value, and be extra grind-ey. Win/win/win. Especially a huge win for a game that is most often and fairly criticized for lack of content!!! It would work like this: Say you want that great looking L12 warlock helm to be your go-to legendary. Take it to Ikora with some glimmer and a commendation to get it to uncommon (green) take it to her again with glimmer, relic iron, and a commendation to make it rare (blue) take it to her again with glimmer/relic iron/ascendant shards and a commendation, and then you get 33light helm. Want it to be 36 light? Break down a raid helm for a legendary shard, take it along with a mote to the speaker and there you have your own unique 36 light helm. You get an RNG roll for perks each time.
-
Why can't we build our own weapons? We have weapon parts. Why not make a bunch of different weapon parts we can put together that determine stats and perks? Obviously the best pieces giving you the best perks are very rare. The best RPGs make craft systems like this and make it fun to keep grinding to build that perfect weapon or piece of armor.

Cool ideas never going to happen.
