A Disgruntled 10+ year Fan's Response to the Bungie Jan 29th Weekly Update

So... the incompetence continues, Bungie. All I read from this "update" is: you recognize that there [i]is[/i] a bug. A bug we've been telling you about for 4+ months. Then, you post an interview with a programmer who is tasked with fixing this bug, and he all-but admits that he has no idea how to fix it, or at least no way to fix it without breaking five other things. Still no mention of: Raid bugs (both Raids)(exact lists of Raid glitches and bugs are too numerous to list here) Various armor/weapon bugs and glitches No... we just get a lesson in the incompetence of your development team, and a snarky comment on another feature that has been asked for... well, since the damn game launched. I call "bullshit" that a new feature takes a bit to modify/introduce. You guys gave us double the Bounty slots in less than two months. It apparently is not that difficult, I just think this is a cover-up for "we aren't really going to fix it (because our Activi$ion overlords told us not to), but we have to tell you something to placate you lesser creatures"... This is bullshit. No substance to the game. Their own Gamers ignored when literally hundreds of items and features that could save this game have been given to you guys. Fixes "the way we intended you to play" rather than fixing bugs and glitches that not only break their game, but renders both Raids nigh-unplayable due to said bugs/glitches. The sad thing is; most of our suggestions were advertised as a part of the game from the ads, videos, and interviews from well before the game launched. These things were already going to be in the game. Why were they cut out!? Because Bobby Kotick is a greedy, cancerous, shit-stain on the gaming industry as a whole. I guess we really aren't going to be allowed to become Legend and "play the way you want to" like was advertised. So little deviation in this game. Everyone looks the same because Bungie keeps an extremely limited number of armor variations in their game. Sure they added some with 'The Dark blows', but they took out more than they added when they removed the older armor sets from the game. No word on why they made 'The Dark Blows' weapon selection absolute garbage when compared to the base game inventory or weapons. So... the "professional" reviewers (even the ones you paid for good reviews, like IGN) are soundly rejecting and brutally criticizing Destiny and it's very obvious flaws, broken code, lack of story/lore, small cramped maps, lack of variation in the short list of missions. Gamers who play Destiny for hours per day and give you guys the same feedback as the professional reviewers but with suggestions to fix the game are being summarily ignored. At least, ignored until Activi$ion looks at it and thinks it might actually be a cheep, money-free fix... This is such a long, gory fall from the heights you attained with Halo, Bungie. This new Bungie is a pathetic shell of the company that made Marathon, Oni, and Halo. With those games; you made a solid, fun product, and the money rolled in to you guys. Now you're giving us a shit-tier, half-assed product and trying to bilk us for money for an inferior, reskinned and recycled product. That was a company that actually cared about the product they produce and what their Gamers were thinking about said product. This new Activi$ion/Bobby Kotick led money-monstrosity-Bungie is an abomination, a cancer, on this industry. But I will tell you what you have succeeded amazingly well at, Bungie. You've guaranteed, without a doubt, that I will buy no more of your games again. Ever. I'll stick around to see what you guys do with House of Wolves (only because I've already paid for it, and I'm not going to pay for a pathetically small DLC and then never play it); but you can forget about any other DLC's (these are not expansions), you can forget about trying to get me to purchase "Comet", and you can sure as hell forget about Destiny 2. Have I been a bit harsh or mean in this post? Probably. But you deserve it for this sub-standard product that resembles nothing close to what you advertised to us before launch. you brought this upon yourselves.

  • I agree that the game is not perfect, but there is more potential here than we have ever seen on a console before. Destiny is an ambitious project, and it's going to have issues. It will be a very different game a year from now, and I'm willing to let it grow before declaring it as total shit. I took the coder's response at face value. I'm sure he's a highly intelligent guy with a team of highly intelligent people. If they can't find a quick fix, there probably isn't one.
