How would you feel about that?
Personally I think that might be the final nail in Destiny's coffin, for me at least. Extending playtime be resetting progress isn't a good mechanic at all in my opinion.
Edit: Exotic armour to light 42 as well. F me.
Edit two: Please read the tags as well.

I know about this, doesn't change the hypothetical question and Bungie have gone back on things before.
Edit four: [b][u]IT'S A HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION, HYPOTHETICAL.[/u][/b] http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/hypothetical
How is this inducing so much rage? It's a what if question.
Final edit, to those raging, this was just a what if question, not sure why you all lost your shit so much.
To those that understood, (the vast majority) I thank you for having more than two brain cells to rub together.
-
Bungie came out and said that they are not going to repeat the same mistakes they made with TDB. Hopefully that holds true.
-
Honestly id probably be done with destiny, I'm not gonna dump all of this time and effort into a damn game just for it to be taken away and have to restart. -blam!- that
-
I thought they said in a previous update that they realized how shitty they made it to continue in the game with the last update?
-
I dont mind leveling them up again. It is easy as hell. Do ten bounties, use a telemetry before turning them in. If u have 3 characters.. thats 30 bounties.

Edited by SweetZombieJesus: 1/26/2015 4:19:01 PMThey'll give a bit and stay firm on some things. Exotics won't reset 100%. They'll probably have you spend a shard after you buy the upgrade. Legendaries will stay the same. Raid weapons from previous raids will stay the same. Maybe they'll make future changes in new raids. Its all super easy though. Just create a new vendor. Blacksmith. Reforge all weapons and gear to new levels for [i]enter specific denomination here[/i]... Done. People still have to grind. PS. However... This is why I'm sitting on the last few steps of the Thorn bounty...
-
Didn't read, not too long, just too dumb. It's going 1 of 2 ways. 1. Reset exotics through xur again. 2. Have to find/buy new exotics. Which would you prefer?
-
In regards to the HYPOTHETICAL nature of the post =) Honestly, people will keep playing or stop. I do think that if people have to re-level their exotics again, there is going to be A LOT more backlash from the community. I only have two, and neither is a weapon. So getting new legendary weapons and gear isn't a huge deal to someone like me. For folks who have collected ALL the exotics...man, I hope they don't do that again. The suggestion of Xur's upgrade resetting the final 3 upgrades, or even adding three more bubbles would be a much better solution.
-
You are seriously wondering how you are inducing so much rage with your "what if" question? How about.. Idk... The fact that you literally never say "what if" at any point in your entire post, and to add to that the title of your post is written as a statement. Dumbass.
-
http://t.co/axt4TCuTJj read this
-
Ghjallerhorn/hopf will get upgraded, other exotics will stay as is. Damage doesn't matter in crucible...maybe I'll upgrade suros for IB...
-
Wouldn't mind but apparently the upgrade is just adding more bubbles in the perk tree.
-
Next time be careful with the title man, you blame Bungie for saying one thing and doing another, that's pretty much what you did here though.
-
See this kind of kills it for me. Knowing everything I have will be outdated in 2 months kind of makes me wonder if I should bother grinding the raid each week. Especially if they are going to sell gear better than raid gear the first day the next DLC drops.
-
There was a post on neo that they are at least trying to figure out a way that when you upgrade exotics you will not have to level them again. So that we dont have to re-level each xpac or comet.
-
I wish the light level was 39, that two level increase was pretty lame, so much so that I cant be arsed to chase it, no real incentive. Hopefully they dont do the exotic reset again after the uproar from last time I had a good idea I posted a while back that the xur upgrade should just reset the xp on the last 3 nodes, leaving you at the current max (if you maxed it) and then the 3 nodes can be levelled again for the new max. Get to keep the perks and it's not a hard kick in the balls like last time.
-
They said that two mistakes they made with this DLC, which they will not repeate are, 1. upgradeing exotics resets perks. 2. vangaurd gear discrediting Raid gear owners
-
Not too concerned. Bungie admitted making mistakes with CE. I'm confident these issues will be resolved and as such, I'm leveling all my Exotics with no fear of them becoming obsolete without a reset. A new dawn, Guardians.
-
thats why im not concerned with rushing to level 32 or to get the ugly crota gear thats as strong as what i already have just the armor is a little higher
-

-
I want New exotics and not only three new i want ALL New! Im tired allways using and seeing the same weapons.
-
You realize the reset increases the damage to more than the last version of the weapon and only really requires the grind to obtain the higher damage and regain the perks. It's not that bad really. It's not like it starts you at damage lvl 200 or something. It's part of the game and not a horrible part either
-
No shit every DLC will do that
-
Edited by Circadian Wolf: 1/26/2015 3:31:37 PMI would still play just for HoW, but not nearly as much. Having to re-level stuff really sucks the fun out of the game.
-
I think it's fun it's not reseting its upgrading what are they supposed to do just give your weapons more power because you said so? Or here is another option keep them how they are and come out with new ones that you have to get making old ones that you played to get useless for later on in the game. Hmmmmm let me think. I think I will take upgrading because it gives me the flexibility to keep the exotics I use up to date in a pretty easy way just have to level it up again witch I can do in a day. Not even difficult.
-
If they didn't you'd have absolutely no reason to play the game. You are upgrading, not resetting. Resetting is going back to zero, period! It's a simple concept most here don't seem to understand. The problem is this wouldn't be an issue if there was more content and it wasn't such a mind numbing process to do.
-
armor light will actually go to 42 light and vender gear will be 39
