My Boys Dont Play Anymore

*** Update. So I re-downloaded Destiny 1 and jumped in for 2 rounds of control. It was a blast. Got ganked the first round. Still having to get used to it again but did ok for 2nd round. Getting our house ready for family tomorrow but will jump in again shortly. Graphics not near as good but gameplay is nice and crisp. 8) First match took a couple of minutes of matchmaking but the next match was quick. Come on over. Its nice in here! ***** Destiny 1 was so awesome. I bought each of my boys a PS4 (3 of them) and I even got one for myself and then my wife. It was so good I bought myself a ps4 pro for Destiny 2. Its the only thing my wife and I play. Even now - pvp. I cant get my boys to play anymore though. Even my oldest boy, he played Destiny 1 primarily for 3 years. Now they dont play at all. My two younger boys hardly played at all. What is ironic is ypu have all these other games trying to figure out what Bungie did with Destiny 1. Trying to capture some of that magic. Bungie on the other hand was trying to not be like Destiny 1? The management team that decided all of that shpuld be moved to non-decision making roles. Horrible. My wife.and I still love the game. Its still all we play, however I think these will make it better (even for us.): * random rolls on equipment * strike specific/unique drops * named.boss/evemt drops * old light/levelling system * make light matter evrywhere * pick your strike and pvp style * do not nerf anything - buff others * more damage on weapons * more damage on abilities * faster recharges on abilities * one hit kill stickies.- bring em back * sunsinger and bladedancer back It is tough to solo que into pvp. If ttk was faster and we had faster.and.better abilities it could.be tenable to solo que - even against a made team. Im hopeful season 2 and the expansion will bring dramatic change. I am not excited about.the content im just hopeful for change.

    Your boys should be focused on school. Video games and weed are the reason why we aren't as smart as other countries.

              I bought 26 ps4s(one for each bedroom). Then I realized that wasn’t enough so I bought 11 ps4 pros(one for each bathroom). Still wasn’t enough. I counted the outlets in my garage. There’s 12 so I figured let’s try the new Xbox(one for each outlet). Just to be on the safe side I purchased three collector’s editions for each console(you never know). Now I turn on every console and play every single one simultaneously. It is a whole lot of work playing them all at once so I decided to install four elevators. Now the problem I face is remembering all the different accounts and passwords. So I hired a full time butler(another one to add to the already full time staff of 40) just to follow me around and remind me of the the things I can’t be bothered with. Well now with me running around the house playing Destiny ‘round the clock I realized we needed more kitchens(three isn’t enough). I built a kitchen in each room, bathroom and garage. Of course I had to hire 37 more chefs(now we have 40). After all of this I realized we need random gun rolls.

              • I agree completely. Destiny 2 is a joke, the weapons, weapon system, grenades, lack of random weapon rolls, character abilities and the fact that they dumbed everything down SUCKS!!!! Destiny 1 was fun, Destiny 2 is insulting!!!! I main a warlock and I will never forgive Bungie for taking away sun singer, or for the GARBAGE weapon system and trash weapon rolls they dumped on us. If Bungie's goal was to chase away veteran players, at least at that they are doing a great job!!!

              • Story of my life: but my son's always leave for new games (call of duty) but come back in time for DLC - I'm sure we'll be playing December 5th - then a month later they'll be playing whatever is hot Difference is that eventually they'll be trading in call of duty but will still pop in for destiny DLC or update Also I don't mind some of your suggestions except for RNG on gear - I love me some static rolls!

                • You forgot the Shoulder Charge and 2 hits Melee in PVP. Well basically Bungie took out all the fun from D1..make a dumbdown version...aka D2.

                      • On the topic of OHK stickes, I agree that a grenade stuck to a guardian should be a kill... kinda stupid that it doesn't... but they should be a lot harder to land. the sticky assist from is ridiculous. if they were a lot harder to hit I'd be fine with it coming back.

                          [b]* random rolls on equipment :[/b] I personnally don't want this back. A dozen of godly weapons and 1000 of "unwanted" items? They went from random rolls to fixed rolls, which is bad in it's own way, but I think we should find a middle ground. They said fixed stats are there to stay, but what they could do is introduce a lot of different fixed rolls for each weapon, some rarer than the others. It would be easier to balance for both PvE and PvP and would at least give us something to grind for and these "variants" should all be obtainable at the same time, not during a specific season, like they intend to do. [b]* strike specific/unique drops :[/b] I agree. [b]* named.boss/evemt drops : [/b] I agree. [b]* old light/levelling system :[/b] No opinion, the new one is fine. Never cared about it in D1. [b]* make light matter evrywhere : [/b] Hell no! PvP is about skill, not gear level, and I hate to one shot mobs in PvE using a SMG. If they made light matter in PvE, enemies would have to drop shitty tier loot in most zones and there would be no reason to go back to earlier zones. We would all end up farming the "endgame" zone and it would be more repetitive/boring that it currently is. [b]* pick your strike and pvp style :[/b] I agree, it should have been there. [b]* do not nerf anything - buff others :[/b] I totally agree. While some perks or weapons could use a nerf, most perks should be buffed. [b]* more damage on weapons : [/b]Depends. It's not as simple as that. They could also tone down the HP of some bullet sponge enemies. [b]* more damage on abilities :[/b] Depends on which one. Some Super are way too strong compared to others. [b]* faster recharges on abilities :[/b] I agree, we should be able to tailor our armors/mods so that we get our abilities faster. [b]* one hit kill stickies.- bring em back : [/b] I never liked stickies, but you are probably right. [b]* sunsinger and bladedancer back :[/b] What would happen to the new classes? You also understand that Sunsinger Super would have to be reduced by a lot, have higher cooldown or someting like that. As for the Bladedancer, I personnally never liked it, but that might just be me. On another note, should every element have two subclasses with selectable skills instead of two "Ways"? Probably, but we must assume that it would be way too much work for Bungie. [quote]It is tough to solo que into pvp. If ttk was faster and we had faster.and.better abilities it could.be tenable to solo que - even against a made team. [/quote] I understand that right now, solo queue is a bit harder than it was, but do you think that faster TTK is the answer? On PC, I can pretty much kill someone (or get killed) in little more than a second, switch to another target and wipe an entire team in less than 8 seconds if they're crappy enough, and that is with using guns only. Decreasing TTK will also make it way easier for a group to literrally "one shot" you, as if they didn't do that already... but maybe the overall gameplay on PC is faster, and as a result, PvP feels "fast enough". Still, it doesn't change the fact that you're right about the state of the game. It is lacking somehow, in many ways. It's not doomed, but they'll need to get things right before there is no players left.

                                • My 2 lads used to hit d1 hard and d2 but have both stopped playing also! My 9 year old has even been raiding with me for the last year and completed Crota 400 and leviathan! He always got excited on a weekend to play but the last 3 weeks has not bothered due to saying it’s boring now!

                                  • I agree with you. But you're going to get some fanboys to come on here and swear that this is the best game ever and how Bungie doesn't make mistakes. Just because they have fun means everyone else should feel the same way. They feel like D2 is way better than Y3 D1 and how Y3 doesn't hold a candle. I know too well now how bungie operates. No more money from me. I spent $120 and expected similar game modes to D1. We were going to get Heroic strikes, 6V6 pvp, how they were going to build on D1 modifiers, etc. What did we get? None of the above. We got a half assed game. Bungie probably sat around a desk to come up with ideas for the dlc. Nothing? Let's just take heroic strikes and put it on a dlc that way people can think we're giving them content. When in reality they are selling us something that should have already been in the game.
