Dear Bungie, Please read.

Here are some of my thoughts on the current state of the game. Agree or disagree I don’t really care this is meant for the developers to read. PVE: The weapons, armor, and perk sets are pretty decent. The only things I really feel could improve is better seasonal story activities. To be honest I wish each season’s story was more like the expansion campaign. A cool mission maybe some awesome cutscenes of our guardian npcs in action. I get how this could kind of defeat the current expansion model and I’m not saying it needs to be super in depth and lengthy missions. Like 1 per week even. I mean we have never seen Lord Shaxx in action like wth Bungie. My second thought is on the seasonal artifact and some of the mods. You always said you want us players to have many choices on our builds so we can attack grandmaster’s and raids in our own unique fashion. The current design for the seasonal artifact doesn’t really allow that. You give us 4 maybe 5 different weapons that champion mods can be applied to and added a few exotics with some built in champion mods. You already have a brilliant way in the game already to open this up for the players. Instead of including anti-barrier, overload, and unstoppable mods just change armor piercing rounds to anti-barrier, ricochet rounds to overload and high caliber rounds to unstoppable. This will allow to us an almost infinite bounty of options to not only use but farm for. We wouldn’t really hear much talk about what the meta is. We can finally play with what we like. As for our armor please remove the energy and type from the armor. It honestly serves no purpose and is the opposite of what you say your intentions are for us players in again handicapping our build potential. The only purpose I could see as to why the armor has 10 energy and the mods have a cost is to limit our effectiveness in pvp. Just get rid of the 10 energy, the energy type, and the cost on mods. Keep the slots the same in the armor, just remove the costs. Also finish Stasis please. What I mean by this is each class only has 1 super to choose. Every other subclass has multiple options for super and the melee. Stasis just feels incomplete after the others got the 3.0 treatment and now next expansion we’re supposed to get a new darkness class. Please find a way to bring the factions back. Whether it is with the D1 model of just bounties for reputation to earn faction weapons or he’ll I’ll even take the faction wars back at this point. Raids: Masters need to be harder. The adept weapons should come with enhanced perks as well. The armor should be artifice. Make origin traits for VoG, Last Wish and GoS weapons. Lastly I feel like the Hot Swap origin perk was a missed opportunity. We already have mods that compensate for this. Why not something fun like built in sweaty confetti? Eververse engrams and cosmetics: Please change the loot from engrams to target items not unlocked or purchased already. Out of the many engrams I earn I get maybe 1 or 2 new things I have already gotten. Please put a way to get old cosmetics for crucible/vanguard/gambit/trials of the nine/factions in the monuments to lost light or with the npcs for those activities to be earned or purchased. Please finally let us change our guardians actual appearance with deleting it and re-creating it. It wouldn’t be an issue if things that should be account based were. As it stands if you delete a character and remake it you then have to redo all expansion stories, redo all stasis quests, and then finally spend hundreds of thousand glimmer to repurchase the abilities and aspects for all subclasses. You’ve said we’d get this option someday and that the character creator would have more options. I don’t care if we have spend silver or bright dust to be able to. Just want the opportunity to. PVP: I hold this mode very close to my heart as it is what I normally enjoy the most in Destiny 2. I may not be the best but every season I always make sure I improve and do better than the previous season. The quitter penalty for control needs to go. It wasn’t the answer and not what most of us asked for. Instead we only wanted a freelance option for the quick play modes. Most of us don’t want to solo queue and end up against a six stack, because let’s be honest you can’t really balance very well and quickly for solo players to compete against a six stack. We want a more stable environment where connection is prioritized over ever other factor and then balanced by skill fairly. For example If one player has played 1 match this season and has KDA of 18 that does not mean put most of the decent players in the lobby on the other. Which brings me to my next opinion. Players combat ratings for pvp need to be calculated more objectively. For example I have seen many matches where the best players will lose a control match because the treat it like clash and capture no zones. Not even the freebie zone to start the match. Same goes for other modes. Completing the objectives in my opinion should be more important that just defeating opponents. Please replace control with the round robin modes again or with clash. After years of control being the mainstay and then Iron Banner being control it’s kind of worn it’s welcome if you know what I mean. I do like the new Iron Banner modes as they have been a much needed change of pace and objective. More of this please. Trials: Remove the flawless pool. As I said before I am not the best player but I want to play the best. How else do you get better? Also when I think of trials, I think just that. Playing the best players in order to get to the Lighthouse. Trials should be hard. It isn’t for the weak or faint of heart. It’s for bragging rights and everything else that comes with it. Competitive: Bring back pinnacle weapons to be earned and grinded for. They don’t need to be a set perk list of perceived god rolls but give us something to go for. Since I got Not Forgotten and Unbroken I have never really played more than the 4 wins in a row needed to gild the title. There is no point to play it. Also make it ranked pvp. I want a ranked mode and I know a lot of other pvp players want a ranked mode. In conclusion if you have made it to here I thank you for your time and consideration as this was quite lengthy. I appreciate all the hard work the teams do there at Bungie and will always play and love Destiny regardless of the direction you take things even if I disagree with some choices made. Please keep thinking big for the future and keep this train going.
