It doesn't matter who leaves or who stays anymore. The higher-ups with their lovely investment team will never change so this means the game will never get the attention it so badly needs to improve it. The sandbox lead leaving could be a good or bad thing, but knowing the higher ups it will most likely be a bad thing and things will get worse from here. So I guess enjoy the roller coaster...

14 RepliesAs much fun as I’ve had through the lifetime of D1 and D2, no other game has frustrated me as much due to: Things taking too long to be addressed or not addressed at all. Twisting suggested changes into their own spin that isn’t what players asked for. Developer pig headedness just flat out refusing to change annoying systems people constantly say they would like changed. PvP that has no fun sense of balance. I’m actually at the point where if I heard Bungie closed its doors and Destiny was done for, I’d have some odd sense of satisfaction. It’s become a game I hate to love and love to hate.

I don't know these people and don't care at all. They weren't fired. They made a personal decision and good for them. I wish them the best of luck wherever they go, and just like a player leaving my team for free agency, I'm optimistic the new person will work as well or better with the team.

This is good. Fire the entire sandbox team, they are all -blam!-. Get us a new meta

90 RepliesEdited by Lost Sols: 3/29/2019 8:31:55 PMJust want to say that anyone in this thread celebrating devs leaving are classes individuals and really need to examine their own lives and priorities. Hamrick and Weisnewski did a lot of good for this game and their leaving is a loss for the studio, game and community. If you don't have anything to say except shitty comments, keep them to yourselves.

Easily replaceable

If Bungie post-Activision are looking at their personnel and a few changes/departures occur then surely that’s a good thing. The worst thing after spending all that money to buy the franchise outright would be just more of the same. Both of the recent departures are related to underperforming departments. I wish both of them well but the sandbox needs more regular tuning and PvP needs an overhaul. Some fresh blood is a good idea.

Yeah, nothing against those guys, but the game isn’t exactly a-freaking-mazing right now. They could be two guys that were fighting to change it, the others didn’t share their vision so they left. Or, they were at the end of their creative rope with Destiny and needed a change. Either way, I’m ready for some fresh blood. Bring it!

Lost sols scathing 900 page essay probably had a hand in this

Both said they had thought about leaving for awhile and are working on other projects that they can’t find. Usually the reason people leave the team, is because they don’t fit with the direction the game is going, especially sandbox designers. My guess is they want fresh eyes or they are going in new directions with the game.

Honestly, I'm glad to see Jon Weis[b]nerf[/b]ski leaving!

Hey thats the 0.4% guy. Good ridance.

Hamrick and Weisnewski brought PVP to its lowest point in the franchise. Hopefully in the future Destiny PVP will be fun again but I doubt it.

Edited by PilksUK: 3/30/2019 6:27:13 PMPVP in Destiny just doesn't work... its more work and trouble than its worth for the small amount of players that play it... I would say they both left as they just felt like they was working on a dead horse and it wasn't fun for them.

3 RepliesBungie needs to clean house and get a breath of fresh air in the game.

Lol, looks like he got nerfed 🤣

4 RepliesSo this Jon character has something to do with pvp, and he's leaving? Thank God! Pvp in destiny is horrible, unimaginative and uninspired. The levels are pre-school design and the overall game design is poor compared to games of 10/15 years ago.

Good riddance. Wasn’t doing anything useful of helpful.

Edited by Kiro - 13: 3/30/2019 4:35:11 AMfrom what I understand the 2 were behind sandbox stuff( all shotguns, whisper, heavy machine getting the nerf bat). and are also responsible for the low ability cool downs. If any of that is true then it should be a good thing. I mean season of the drifter is a historic bad moment from bungie right their with curse of osris.
