I added this as a suggestion, but I got 0 feedback from anyone. I am sorry of this shows twice, but I placed this in the feedback section and it just.. never showed? I don't really play the PvP n Destiny, I have ventured in there for Bad Juju and Invective, but my thorn bounty is just sitting in my bounty list gathering dust. I love playing Strike missions, Raids and of course patrols. I love the raids, but at this moment I still haven't killed Crota on Hard mode. But I will, oh I will! Anyway, here are my suggestions for some things that I think would be cool: So, Factions? Future War Cult, Dead Orbit, New Monarchy and, of course, the Vanguard ( I know the cryptarch and crucible are there, but they can be levelled otherwise. And yes, I know so can the vanguard with bounties). I have never really felt any reason to stray from the Vanguard to be honest. I prefer my Juju over a lot of primary weapons, or my Ice Breaker over most secondaries. I also have weapons like the Vanquisher 8 which I love, or a plan C (My first real exotic drop, from a ROC), and I prefer my Hunger of Crota over most special weapons. So I haven't worried over other weapons really. I am sure someone may have something to comment about my weapon choice, but it's how I like to play. And I have never really cared for shaders, seeing as I rarely see my own character. So imagine this for people who really want to show faction allegience. Every week, like the Nightfall or Weekly Heroic, Bungie could spice it up by assigning one planet to each faction! So what I mean, lets say all Patrol missions on Earth were devoted to the Vanguard while every patrol mission on Mars were devoted to FWC for week one, and most importantly, The faction that the patrol mission is in aid of determines what kind of faction points we earn. So that we don't have to wear a FWC item to earn FWC rep, we just do patrol missions on the planet assigned to FWC. And after the week, we could see in a tally Bungie kept, where the majority of players set their allegiance. So if new monarchy was the highest 'chosen' faction by players over the week, the main screen (Press A to play Destniny) could be for the most popular faction of the week. (Just an idea). But I really like the thought of this! We could have clans pushing for new monarchy, or vanguard! It would make Patrol competitive, and we would still be earning our items for levelling up and perhaps at the end of the week depending on how well we did we could be sent a package containing a few items or engrams, or even a roll for some faction specific items from the faction we levelled the most. This then, opens up the possibility for the factions stories and views to be brought into destiny, like Hideo recognising our NM rank and sharing some information about the faction in return for choosing them over another faction. Perhaps the higher our rank the more we are told about the factions history (within the game). I also think that, for an INCREDIBLY HIGH rank, Faction vendors could sell Faction-specific-exotics, only obtainable from a vendor with a very high faction rank. For rewarding the loyal and long term player. (I may come back to this, I am sitting in college now and I may have forgotten some of my thoughts). I would love to see rare enemies, with a small chance to spawn and a small chance to drop awesome loot. Kind of like how the Hallowed Ogre sometimes spawns in skwatch. But, that ogre isn't exactly a challenge. Why not have a random ogre on par with Urzok? An epic ogre, with a name, that may spawn in skywatch. Or, an epic Shank (Still on par with urzok) that may spawn in the divide. Or even, list of epic enemies that just may spawn on the planet on any area. Again, more reason to fireteam-up and patrol, ''Hey Jim! I see an epic Ogre over here in the rocketard! Get over here now!!''. Perhaps they could even be involved into bounties or maybe patrols (Every 10th, 20th, 50th?) patrol mission could spawn one of these Epic enemies. (Again, I am sitting in college and may come back to this if I forget things) And also, why not have each faction offer unique bounties? Lets say, we can only hand in 10 bounties per day, but give us a choice of 5 - 10 bounties from each faction vendor? I would love to have 10 bounties I could complete in one long session of patrolling one planet. These are just my ideas, something I think would bring factions and PvE into a little more spotlight. Edit: I took glimmer boosts should last for a full strike or one death. And I also think it would be cool if within the strike playlist we could choose or even randomly be assigned one of our characters to play as, providing they are appropriate level.
