Don't understand why people are whining if u whine Bungie won't listen... u will just be that one person on the forums shaking salt all over the place... but with constructive criticism Bungie will listen more... plz fix these forums

Destiny 2 is garbage. I mean, it honestly feels more like what should've been a free to play, free download knockoff of Destiny 1, made by some independent developer and maintained entirely on a simple microtransaction system.

I get what you mean. As far as the development team, who are emotional artists, could use some inspiration maybe. But here is why the salt is important too. There is a board room somewhere, probably at both Bungie and activision. On that board there are investors who have gaming industry experience and probably more that don’t. They don’t care about Bungie or activision. They don’t care to learn what gamers want. They care that their investment pays what they were told. When they see a salty forum they don’t see immaturity or stupid comments. They see pissed off customers they see lost revenue and reputation. They see something the company better fix QUICK! Trust me salt hurts the pocket book and these men and women are very smart. Same with micro transactions. What do they cost in future sales and customer sentiment? They care about the bottom line, today and for destiny 3. This has cost them millions in future revenue probably. How they regain it will ultimately decide if they are successful. Many large companies fail every year, most often from disenfranchised customers. A statistic they are surely familiar with.

Errr isn't that what they are supposed to do in this day and age? Look at the division for example. The devs and community managers constantly keep you updated with whats going on in their state of the game streams.

Bungie's problem is they're thinking about 'then' and not 'now.' This whole incident with the Bureaucratic Walk emote is a perfect example. When the glitch was discovered, what they should have done was taken the game offline for maintenance. But because they had the PC launch coming up, what they actually did was remove Trials from the game for a bit so PV could launch. Anyone else would have taken immediate action.

Yeah...thanks for being brave enough to report on the game I doubt anyone at a Bungie is still playing after a month.

I personally doubt they'll put the shit they took at back in until at least 6 months they're too lazy to do shit

I’m just doing what most other players are doing. Taking a break. I don’t hate the game. Game is fun, it’s awesome, but there’s not much to do right now. I think once Bungie gets their act together (which it looks like they’re doing and release more content), I’ll probably come back on.

Are they doing anything about in game chat

I'm not trying to be salty when I say this, I am glad that Bungie has finally done some form of communicating outside of Cozmo's generally shallow responses, I'm simply pointing it out because someone has to. Communication is something that should've happened a long time ago, not something to to be put on the back burner until pc launch. The lack of communication on Bungie's part is atrocious and the fact that they've waited this long to say anything should say something. Don't drop your pitch forks and jump back to Bungie's defense just because they've finally acknowledged you. Look at it from a critical point of view, don't just say "oh, he's just being salty." The game has been out this long already and yet Bungie has completely neglected it's forums and just flat out ignores any thread that isn't heralding their praise. You can count Cozmo's replies if you want to, but to be honest, he never sounds like he's giving an actual response but instead seems to have a page of pre written responses to reference. When they finally do decide to communicate with us, to knowledge some of the glaring issues this game has had since launch, it conveniently coincides with the pc launch of the game and discusses what changes the dlc, which players will have to pay for, will bring. I'm not hating on Bungie right now, though it may sound like it. As I said, I'm glad they've finally communicated with us in some form. I'm simply stating that you shouldn't jump back on the Bungie bandwagon just because they've finally acknowledged your existence. Be glad, show Bungie you appreciate their acknowledgement, but also be cautiously optimistic. If someone in the real world were to sell you a half finished product and chose to ignore you every time you tried to talk to them about said product, would you suddenly jump to their side if they finally (after a couple months of ignoring you) said "ok, here's my plan for the future of this product..."

Wait.... What's going on here?

This will explain my issues with D2

Don’t thank them just yet. They finally acknowledged many of the issues and have said they’re working on solutions, but as of now, they’re just words. No specifics or actions. A step in the right direction, but let’s not congratulate them for making [i]a step[/i].

Man. I love what you said
