What were the design goals for Escalation Protocol? Jacob: Escalation Protocol was designed to be a high-difficulty endgame activity for a max-level, three-player fireteam. Other players in the world can contribute to make it easier, but they shouldn’t be required as long as your team is highly skilled and coordinated. We have received a lot of feedback since the original launch of Destiny 2 that players felt like reaching max Power was not satisfying. There weren’t enough activities that required and rewarded that level of commitment. Escalation Protocol was designed to fill that gap. So that means just hop on Tuesday for a couple hours until we’re 385

38 RepliesSo I was on Mars goofing and doing patrols, when this agressive group of nubes started to demand I "leave the patrole area" so they could do the EP they had been" setting up for hours" it was a 9 person group and after I ignored their rude request they literally started attacking me and following me all over the map. Is there some reason players can not do the EP when other players are in the general area? And what right do players have to demand you leave so THEY can play... :(

Escalation Protocol was designed to fill that gap.[/quote] escalation protocol is supposed to DELIVER gear that gets you towards max level.. not an activity once you ARE max level.. what the hell are you doing ? how an that fundamental flaw be designed into your activities..? a.) 3rd and 5th chest being normal "high value target" or "pubic event " chests is absolutely weird and idiotic.. giving out a "reward" that I can get by dropping a nova bomb en passant at a high value target in a highly difficult "gather your group" game is Bullcrap.. b.) the difficulty is perfect.. BUT the real game of escalation protocol is not the hive and how to defeat it, but the odds to get a 9 man team into one instance.. and I don't buy your "its a three man activity" since you advertised it as 9 man activity and showed it as 9 man activity .. you just completely forgot to add any means on how to get there since you can probably just boot 9 man up in your playlets environment at Bungie.. c.) no matter what you do , you need to get the point where you acknowledge that Destiny NEEDS, desperately NEEDS a group finder IN GAME.. something.. anything.. to write what you want to do and then let the servers find people for you. have some creativity, have some ikelos cores drop from the3rd and 5th chest and if you have 10 you can get one of three weapons.. or one armor piece.. or or or or.. be creative .. and not blind..

1 ReplyOn another 2 game streak I spawn in to a score of 1-20 other team has full supers and heavy. GD Bungie! And you guys thought you could do MLG?

This week at bungie. People are able to do EP as of right now. Not too many so that’s good. Our goal is that sucky players know they suck or good players know they need to grind more before completing this. It’s meant for 3 highly coordinated players with all Catalyst weapons by week 3 of the DLC. So pretty much very lucky (drops) hardworking guys with 8 hours of straight game time can pull this off. We want this experience to be one of the most challenging things ever AND NOT EVEN MAKE IT AN ACHIEVEMENT OR TROPHY so it shows how much we care. That you Bungie for listening and doing nothing.

Those Bungie lies. Those Bungie scams. Kinda reminds me of the shyster from the monorail episode of the Simpson’s. https://youtu.be/v4z_9NcIJXI

7 RepliesEdited by Alvin Thwait: 5/25/2018 8:14:31 AMYou know something Cosmo? You really should have cut Jacob Benton's whole piece there. His explanation of escalation protocol is blatantly a lie and very insulting to 99% of your (remaining) player base. Unless you can have s word with Deej for your next streamed podcast and have you, him and A N other go to mars and 3 man it I refuse to believe that activity is designed to be completed by 3 people. You guys must know you name is mud these days. Why release statements like this that feed the haters?
-
Come on guys cheer up there is also a positive thing about bungie. Namely if you are a huge failure in live you can always get a job as developer at them

1 ReplyAre those the only exotic armours being reworked? If so, thats pretty disappointing for Warlocks. Instead of reworking any of the Warlock exotic chest pieces, because they are all pretty bad. They decide to rework sunbracers and lunafaction boots? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ftdu8yrKOw

Edited by TheOtherGuy: 5/25/2018 12:11:34 PMYou know what? I dont care anymore.

Edited by FAI-HUN1209: 5/25/2018 1:20:34 PMIt would be great if we can't have 9people or matchmaking then yes tune it down enemy's have way to much hp. No 1 likes bullet sponges. and it shouldn't even be a question if it was meant for 3 people and you see 9 people getting together and doing it don't ask just tune it .common sense really but please fix strikes and clan xp and mission bugs this is nuts.

Hey cosmo here's a dislike. See you next week.

4 RepliesLol @ three player completing EP. enemy bosses have waaaaaaaaay to much HP for time constrictions, enemies still wreck your shit at max light. Three people is as unattractive and unrealistic as me having 3 testicles. Scam artists.
-
2 RepliesPlease get the three community managers to load into an ordinary game and not on your dedicated internal server or whatever you use, and show us lesser mortals exactly how a 3 mqn EP 7 levels is done. Please make a video so that we can all see. I look forward to seeing it

3 RepliesAnthem out yet?

2 RepliesIron Banner. Bungie, you couldve done much more with this event. Much much more. Couldve been a chance to get more people into pvp actually. Instead, you lock a emote for IB/Iron Lords behind a price, so people can buy it and dont ever step into IB. You make drops pretty much useless inside of IB due to low light and the titans ornaments... come on, you couldve done something... better, than that. The emote shouldve been a reward for reaching high levels in the event, making people play it. And adding higher light drops would also been a good idea to "lure" people into pvp, give them a reward for doing it, a reason. Now one dont really got a reason, the ornaments (for Titans at least) looks awful, the drops are just as useful as drops from public events, weapons arent really worth chasing and... well, its just overall a disappointment...

1 ReplyIf the intention was to have 3 maxed players complete EP, why not just make a separate instance? Treat it like Prison of Elders from D1. Create a separate instant on Mars.
-
I'm probably in the minority, but if this is meant for a 3 man fireteam then I think the adds need to be slightly tone down in number and how hard they hit. Honestly, it's not the bosses and lieutenants that is the issue it's the number of adds and how hard they hit. The number of Acolytes and Knights running around with Boomers is just crazy

2 RepliesEdited by KRANOZ: 5/25/2018 7:50:18 AMwhere are mods 2.0? or at least mention some changes on them. Please make Redix's claymore more accesible for solo players.
-
I'm disappointed in their response on the issue of fireteam sizes. I really think it's something we won't see till D3, but its imperative to the success of the series.

1 ReplyReading the TWAB, I get a feeling that people at Bungie have tunnel vision.

Bwahahaha! Lol - the TWAB is comedy gold, week after week. I hope this series never gets canceled.

1 ReplyThis week at bungie, We too a once much looked forward too event, removed everything that actually made it good, poured petrol all over it, then set it on fire as it slowly rolled to its death whimpering off a cliff. Just thought I’d fix that for you Cozmo.
