New Season, similar gripe, This isn't about how good you are or who you play with. It's a game thats suppose to cater to your definition of fun. I play Destiny 2 ALOT (too much) and have purchased every DLC. I enjoy the strikes, strikes are my thing or what they use to be. The challenge and the increasing difficulty challenge (adept, hero, legend. master, GM) trains you to get better. WTF is with all the constant battlegrounds in the strike rotation? First Nightfall of the new season and BAM, friggin hoard mode battleground AGAIN (tough high density -blam!- too!). I get it, i've been around awhile, If you like that kinda thing great, have fun, it's just not my thing. Please seperate the true Strikes from the HOARD MODE -NO COVER battlegrounds. I'm guessing i'm not the only one that feels that way. Has development gone the way of "we think its entertaining if they die alot...?" seriously, wtf, I'm more than a casual. but definitly not a super sweat.

The only difference between strikes and battlegrounds are the name. They are both the exact same activity.

I feel the same , i play for 5k hours and i have gilded conquerer for the 8th time last season and i was so excited for a new nightfall rotation untill i saw that they added 2 battlegrounds AGAIN and tbh lake of shadows is a battleground now , the last boss is still the same , kinda .. But the whole strike changed into a battleground , the old version was better . But thank god they added corrupted , right ? 🤣 Now i have to wait another whole freakin season for a decent nightfall rotation without a single battleground wich is not gonna happen i suppose ... And anti-barrier sidearm ??? Not a single special weapon anti-barrier seasonal mod like last season . Great ! Yet another wish-ender / arbalest season with battlegrounds AGAIN 😑 I am done .
-
100% correct. Vanguard ops and nightfalls have been my go-to entertainment in this game. If I had nothing else to do we could always just go there and have a good time. Battlegrounds muck it all up.
-
Agreed.
-
like bungie it's not a bungie, remember what the game was like and what happened to it this year... There are no longer those people who liked this game and they wanted to do something interesting, new and exciting, this can be seen in everything in the exotic design of the narrative missions , even in a balance that they cannot find to this day
-
Don’t care if it’s a strike. NF? This week? Hell no. Never seen soo many people quit before. And the orb ability changes are so bad. This is a freaking space magic game!
-
Yup. BGs are the no. 1 reason I almost never touch the Vanguard playlist anymore. They just aren't fun, and I have no interest in repeatedly dipping to orbit until I get an actual strike.
-
I dislike EVERY BG in the rotation. Can’t believe they put another one in knowing we hate them.
-
This is great feedback. Battlefield and Psi Ops have taken over the ritual playlists. I don't mind playing them occasionally but at this point strikes are rare to actually get to play.
-
Bungie is too broke to make new strikes Which imo is more important than PvP maps, we can kill each other in a cardboard box , but we need new bosses and stories And they have masterpieces sitting in D1, can you imagine the darkblade or shield bros on GM, or worse, the immune ogre buddy in Wretched Eye More strikes(even old ones), less recycled seasonal content
-
If they at least gave us worthwhile loot to compensate I wouldn't care so much.
-
PsiOps are the worst ones because of the Savathun projections. Especially on GM difficulty.
-
Easier to throw in recycled bgs and call them strikes.
-
I genuinely cannot begin to understand the kind of brainrot the responsible devs had for taking BG's from the seasonal content that they were based around(seasonal and artifact perks) and keeping them(unchanged) in the Vanguard and NF/GM playlist, much less after having ramped up enemy strength, nerfing player survivability and redoing an entire build-focused mod system(yet again). Like, out of all of the content that deserves to get hit with the DCV label and never seen by peoples' eyes ever again, BG's are it.
-
Fun fact, the psi ops nightfall this week is bugged, so if your team all dies at the start, when you respawn no enemies will spawn and the bomb you have to escort wont move, making this the only "strike" that you have to go to orbit if you wipe that isnt on gm difficulty
-
Totally agree! Recycling battlegrounds and throwing them into strikes/nightfall is just laziness.
-
You have the best post of the month. Eventually all nightfalls will be battlegrounds you can see this is the direction they are going. When they put battlegrounds in strikes people leave. A battleground strike is not hard but it takes longer. Ya I'm done with battlegrounds and regular strikes are more fun. Battlegrounds suck and I suspect most of the community thinks so . Especially when they are nightfalls.
-
Battlegrounds are trash and should be removed.
-
I -blam!- hate them with a passion, I avoid the nightfall when it’s one of these and leave if it comes up on strike. Just lazy -blam!- now.
-
spoiler they are
-
After finishing battle grounds ; Kill numbers(gm) Me: 250+ Player1 : 150+ Player2 : 70+ total nearly 500 kills Around 33min. This is insane amounth of kill and very stressfull long while playing with LFG Non Double reward , it is worthless.this should be change
-
yep, battlegrounds arnt even close to strikes, strikes have there own zone you go along.......... tho maybe a few strikes dont... but at least strikes have a uniqe looking boss to fight... but now they just reuse bosses now cause bungie doesn't want to add new enemy's.
-
Love to see bungie staff live stream psiops as a gm . Utter clowns
-
I hate it too. The battlegrounds were a boring enough grind for the season they were in and now I have to do them in a strike. Booooooo. The laziest content made is being double lazy by being "featured as new strikes!" Horrible
-
[quote]It's a game thats suppose to cater to your definition of fun.[/quote]Lol no it's not.
-
I actually like battle grounds missions
