I can't wait to see how you further exclude solo players from getting anything really worthwhile compared to raid or Osiris stuff. While I understand the teamwork emphasis of Destiny, you guys don't seem to understand that some people aren't good with groups, but love the game and would like equal chance to earn amazing gear and weps playing solo. Or at least have equivalent unique stuff for 3 man teams(not pvp). HoW was almost it, but too much of a horde/CoD zombie feel, and rewards were far less impressive. Just speaking for the socially anxious/awkward ones. Love the game, but it really gets exclusionary.

  • I'm a solo player who has used only lfg to get any and all group activities I wanted done. It isn't rocket science and it isn't difficult. If anyone wants to get anything done it is 100% possible and not really all that painful.

  • I'll never understand why solo players play this game. It wasn't built for solo players yet a lot of them think making everything accessible to them is not hurting the game. This is nothing personal it's just this game shouldn't be built around solo gamers.

  • How does design consideration for solo players hurt the game?

  • [quote]How does design consideration for solo players hurt the game?[/quote] What events in this game are solo? None. If you start designing a game around solo gamers knowing it wasn't created for solo gamers. There wouldn't be no need for raids stickes etc knowing you can acquire everything on your own. The characters and their abilities in this game would serve no purpose and they might as well have stuck with making Halo.

    I normally play with just one close friend, and rarely one other. I play because despite the flaws, Bungie knows how to make a shooter with abilities play impressively fluid and smooth. I hate CoD, Battlefield 1 isn't my speed, nor is Overwatch. Aside from the exclusionary feel for solo or small groups, my only consistent gripe is the Activision partnership. I've done the raids, it's nerve wracking for me, but I've done them. Just stating I wish there was something really comparable in challenge and rewards from pve for players like myself. They've come close, but close isn't doing, and solos pay the same money for the game and expansions.

    I understand what you are saying about playing the game, the feel for it etc. But it's meant for gamers to work with each other in various activities that hints to why each character has its abilities. Where one can't at times the other can and that's why raids quest etc are set up the way they are. Being solo and asking a company to make things more accessible takes the concept of this game futher then what it was created for. There wouldn't need to be 3 characters and their abilities if this game was meant for solo gamers.
