I'm going to start with saying I am [b]NOT[/b] going to [b]complain[/b] about any of the [b]updates[/b](or lack there of). The game has been out for about six months now, and I am not really complaining about anything but the lack of people who still play. If you want to complain about having nothing left to do, my advice to you would be take a break. I take a one week break every month so I don't entirely burn out the game, so if you feel like you're in that boat, just try to fire up another game with your friends and take a chill pill! Trust me, it helps! Now that that is off my chest, onto what I wanted to post! Every player has a [b]"Wishlist"[/b] on any game they play. Ya know, a little something to make the game a bit more fun! Personal, if you will. I have to say the Bungie community has always been my niche, with funny and innovative people alike mingling and joining together to wreak havoc! And that is exactly how the Bungie community should stay! So, here are a couple of ideas that I have to bring back that sense of community that seems to be dwindling as of late(And some update ideas as well...): To start, a [b]custom game[/b] option would be amazing! Every Halo game had a custom game of some sort, and everyone enjoyed the hell out of 'em! Now, before anyone mentions it, I know Destiny was designed with MMO features in mind, and is not technically classified as such. They wanted you to meet other players "In the wild" and bring a bit of a community aspect to it. But unfortunately, the little custom multiplayer matches that made Bungie stand out have all but been erased. I am not here to complain, but rather to suggest that this aspect should be added in at some point. I don't quite care when, for I have great patience, but it should be at least considered. Game types like "Supers only, gun roulette, or melee only" are just a couple that come to mind as fun little things you can do with your friends! Hell, make it to where the game type does not give you any experience to balance it out if that would be the concern! Just give us the ability to create our own custom games with our own rules, it would really make the game more fun for more players! This isn’t COD, we enjoy more than just competitive multiplayer!(No offense to the fishes) Secondly, I stand firm with the belief that [b]player trading[/b] should be allowed. I know a lot of people would disagree saying it would help out the "noobs" too much, and it would give less skilled players overpowered gear. Trust me, I have indeed put this into consideration, and pondered this quite a bit myself, but I think that they are missing the point of the game all together. "Have fun". Ultimately, the point of the game is to relax with some friends and have a good 'ol time! I have very little to complain about with Destiny! The gameplay is smooth, the graphics are beautiful, the community is awesome, and the looting aspect was a great addition! So why not have trading? If you're worried about a person who has not even completed the Vault Of Glass getting the Vex, then put a trading hold on the weapon that prevents the player from being able to receive the weapon through trade until they have met the trading standards for said gun(Or armor, if that happens to be the case.) This would help those who have been grinding for months to get a gun that continues to elude them. This would also add a fantastic community aspect, and would help everyone enjoy the game the way [b]THEY[/b] want too. Just a thought. Thirdly(I think that's a word...), add another place to [b]patrol[/b], and or, a [b]new hub![/b] I see that little reef place chillin at the top of my map screen...I know what's up...Trust me when I say the reef would be an interesting place to go! Just imagine hopping from dead ship to dead ship in low gravity, looking for old golden age treasures, just waiting in hiding...It would be awesome! Not only that, but it would break the monotony of the same four patrols/places to do missions. Also, included in this should be another hub world to adventure with your friends. Add a bunch of new vendors, a couple of new factions, and the like! She's the queen right?[b] LET US SEE YOUR MIGHTY KINGDOM, OH POWERFUL QUEEN OF THE REEF![/b] Fourthly(Auto correct is not giving me the red line of disapproval, so I think this one works as well), Give us either a way to [b]stack upgrade materials[/b], or a way to [b]sell[/b] 'em!(Or a bit of both...That would be awesome...) They are clogging up the inventories of players like a deep fried twinkie clogs arteries! It would not be as much of a slap to the face had you not had the ability to sell them to begin with, and gotten rid of it...So I continue to beg on my hands and knees to have mercy on my(our) poor inventories! Fifthly(Still going), Hey, so I heard you like to force [b]players[/b] to [b]grind[/b] their little lives away...I have a way to help, and keep the player satisfied...[b]BOSS DROPS![/b] There, I said it! Nearly every game with looting involved has a rare boss drop of some sort! Hell, even make 'em into little multi-step bounties if you need to! Much like how Aethion gives the Vex, and Crota gives the Crux, why not give minor bosses their own little loot drop? Like a very rare drop of a unique blue hand cannon for killing Shrek-zilla on easy, and a legendary version for killing him on max difficulty! That would be *Blaming awesome! It would really break the monotony of boss slaying, and give you a bit more of an incentive to grind! Hell, what if you got a wrecked shell of a gun from a strike boss, and you had to go loot cashes in patrol (similar to the Super Good Advice) to get another weapon part? I'm not saying "Give us more exotics! WE REQUIRE EXOTICS!", I'm saying a handful of new legendaries would make killing strike bosses much more rewarding, and less of a drag! Sixth(Alright, red line of disapproval said no to that one), [b]Custom shite![/b] Now, Halo was beyond awesome with their character customization, and so is Destiny(More so in some ways). But Destiny should have a way to increase the light level of older gear! If you want to be capable, why should you have to look like every other player? I still rock my level 31 armor, because I like to look like, well, [b]ME![/b] The ability to upgrade your old gear(Be it older guns or armor) would be awesome! Also, being able to make a [b]Custom Ghost Shell[/b] would be AMAZING! We see that Ghost Shell slot...We want more than just the big-box preorder shell! If you made it to where you could customize your ghost on say, Bungie.net, not only would it promote your website, but it would give players that diversity that they desire! Make it to where the more dead ghosts you find, the more you can customize it! That would give players more of a reason to scour the wastes to find those little buggers! Being able to make a custom sparrow design for your clan would also be pretty cool!(As well as emblems, clan weapons, Ships, and the like!) Anyway, in mercy for anyone who actually read the whole thing, I will end it here with a [b]thank you![/b] Thank you for reading my opinions, and taking the time out of your day! I know it was long, but what can I say? This game, like any, has some room to grow! And while you're here: [b]Have any ideas of your own?[/b] [b]Opinions[/b] on what [b]I have said?[/b] Wanna [b]boast[/b] about some [b]b*tchin loot[/b] you got this week? Go on ahead and leave a [b]comment![/b] I love to hear what the community has to say! Ps. My wishlist will be in the comments, for It will not give me the room to post them here. With love -Miko [u][b]Edit:[/b][/u] Thanks to everyone for all of the comments and opinions! I have loved to hear everyone's feelings on the topics that I brought up! It would seem that player trading is quite a sensitive topic right now, and I am fascinated to say the least on how everyone feels about it! I will take notes on both sides of the coin and think of solutions to combat the problems that it may face. Anyway, thank you all, and keep being awesome! [b]-Miko[/b] [u][b]Edit numbah two:[/b][/u] I can't say thank you enough to all of you in the Destiny community! The comments have been flooded with some truly amazing ideas so far, and I can't even begin to fathom how grateful I am to all of you! I plan on taking note of all of the comments at the end of the week, and build a master list of all of the points mentioned, and send 'em to Bungie via the feedback thing-a-ma-jig! I know it will probably not make all that big a difference, but it's worth a shot, eh?! Anyway, thanks again to all of you! If you have any more ideas/opinions, leave 'em in the comments! Your voice shall be heard, and I shall listen! [b]-Miko[/b]
