According to Game Informer. It appears they are doing away with light levels and having a standard levelling system from 1-40

34 RepliesThis is NOT a review, it is a paid advertisement. Game Informer paid for the "exclusive" right to "review" TTK. Since Activision is footing the bill, does anyone really believe that this "review" will be critical of TTK? Hey, I get it. Game Informer is in it to make money on subscriptions. I have no quarrel with that. However, Activision will not approve of them publishing ANYTHING critical of TTK. If the light levels are being removed then we lose up to 14 levels right off the bat. In essence, we are only getting 6 levels of advancement for a $40 DLC. Dropping 14 levels to advance from 20 to 40 means that TTK is even more of a grindfest. Bungie nerfed weapons before, they are nerfing weapons again in September, now they are nerfing our characters to extend their meager content...... all for the low, low price of $40. Enjoy the grind folks. Retarding progress to extend content is now a hallmark of Bungie.

Hmm so we still gain additional levels after 20 and are rewarded motes of light. I wonder if they have a way to track what everyones "real" level is and that will determine what level you start at

No more reaching max level in first two hours of DLC launch? Sounds good to me.

2 RepliesI hated the stupid light level system. I welcome these changes.
-
As long as I can bring HAWKMOON and Lord of Wolves to max attack from the start I'll be fine.
-
And in three months they will change it to another system to keep you playing.

2 RepliesI will still keep around special, meaningful legendarys that have a story or for nostalgia, like my Fatebringer, Praedyth's Timepiece, Matador 64, LDR 5001, things to remind me of year one. My first exotic weapon to be ascended to TTK will be my SUROS Regime, the first exotic i ever received. Not to mention it was in crucible that i received it.

5 RepliesSo if we are 34 now will we start at 20 when TTK comes out or will we still be level 34 working our way towards 40?

1 ReplyDestiny is progressing *Year 10* Me: Anyone remember Light levels? Noobs: What are those? Me: It was how you originally progressed past lvl 20. Noobs: Sounds stupid Personally, I think the Light system was okay.

3 RepliesOk, ok. I'll admit, that IS cool and a massive step in the right direction. I see this, i've said it before, as a PERFECT time for someone to pick up destiny for the first time. We have played a massive beta for almost a year. Which is ok, cheap entertainment etc etc. On the flip side this is a great opportunity to LEAVE destiny. I say that cause i think there's still plenty of things that are going to spring up and those problems tend to take months to fix. I'm hedging my bets on Destiny 2(the actual sequel) to be an amazing 9.5/10 or 10/10 game. I think it will have everything including a real story right from the get go. This does look awesome though. i still doubt there will be much of a story and i don't agree with nerfing stuff but oh well. It's a game and it's a game that'll be there later for those of us who need a break

I never liked the light level system. It was one of the main reasoms why I didnt want trading, and it was a bad mechanic too.
-
Alright the hypefest has started again, lets see if Bungie can actually deliver this time or if just more over hype bullshit.

Cutscenes Confirmed!

Wow looks interesting
