1 ReplyIt was vastly better then haunted Sectors. True it was basically the same and lead to burn out. But there was more randomization, no where near as glitchy. There were alternate routes, big baddies that nuked you with only 1-2 hits (probably proto-Architects). In-between levels boss steps, and you could go as far as you wanted to level wise till time ran out. The graphics were much cooler, darker, spookier, and well did I say cooler because it was. Not perfect, while still randomized it was repetitive. There were a small discrete number of different possible levels which you opened by completing the last one. You had the various races to randomly fight against but there where big bad Hive Knights that popped up that would one hit you. Each level also had special modifiers and the farther you went the more modifiers you had to contend with. But even with all this potential randomization it was repetitive but no where near as bad as Haunted Sectors where the only randomization is the order each plate will spawn. Plus I hated dying and having to fly through several sections to catch up to teammates.

It’s wasn’t anything special but it did offer a better event experience than the lost sectors. On going waves depending on your teams progress..different bosses…hidden chests…fun little chest run at the end that would always trick the new players. If anything it was more thought out and came with minimal bugs on release.

Better than this stupid/bugged event.

2 RepliesIt was better. Similar to it being better to punch yourself in the face than to punch yourself in the balls.

15 RepliesEdited by Olórin: 10/27/2022 12:21:18 AMHaunted Sectors are [i][u]okay[/u][/i] for the "Spoopy" story telling aspect and efficiency in loot grinding. Haunted Forest was great for the atmosphere and Halloween experience of being the underdog surviving. Both are rather repetitive though but then again, it wouldn't be Destiny if the activities were engaging.

I miss the engram trees that would have exotic or legendary engrams on them. Besides that it was decent.

2 RepliesIt was a re skin of a strike basically. It was also just as boring as the current iteration.

Much like haunted lost sectors are just a variant of regular lost sectors, the haunted forest was just a variant of the infinite forest- which was a location/activity on mercury. It was an ok activity, but did get stale after a while since we had the same thing for many years in a row during FoTL.

10 RepliesIt was pretty bad. I'm actually surprised the community misses it, but this could just be another case of rose tinted glasses.

it was a version of the infinite forest on Mercury, which was a simulated pathway with "randomly" generated areas. The areas were suspended in the air with quite a few places you could fall off, and there would be a gate that needed to be unlocked by killing all the ads to proceed.

1 ReplyEdited by SolarCerberuS: 10/25/2022 9:56:10 PMAlot better ,it was darker, randomly generated and there was a huge fun unkillable hive knight that stalked you endlessly. The haunted lost sectors are a heavily watered down replacement that can be completed while sleeping (and they put some of us to sleep as they are that boring.

Now that i play all fotl since day one, i can say the forest is better, but at that time ago we thought it sucked because we was burned out of mercury, but i prefer the forest over the lost sectors.
-
It was much better than running lost sector 4.0.....add the knight and turn the lights off, and put random holes in there.... spice it up
-
A way more fun activity.
-
1 ReplyIt was just the Infinite Forest with Halloween Deco.
-
1 ReplyI wish I was there

1 ReplyI would search YouTube for some gameplay vids. The activity was a bit long, and it did get old, so a break was needed, but it's been long enough that it'd be cool to see it return for a season, if slightly shortened.
-
Mindless enemy killing. No waiting around if you were too efficient. Definitely better than the crap we have now. Oh, and the quest didn’t bug twice in a week
-
2 RepliesIt’s a much larger and longer activity than the haunted lost sectors we have now. Everyone started crying it was old and boring so they listed to the community and we now have this instead.
-
It was infinitely better than what we have now.
