Dear Bungie Team,
First of all, I want to say that the gunplay in Destiny 2 remains outstanding. It is one of the main reasons I, along with many other players, keep coming back to the game. The weapon mechanics and overall gameplay feel are at a level that few other games can match.
However, I feel that the PvP aspect (e.g., Crucible) has not received enough attention recently. In my opinion, putting a stronger focus on PvP content could significantly boost player numbers. PvP has immense potential, and I’d like to suggest the following improvements:
1. New Maps: Adding more variety to maps would be fantastic. Perhaps bring back some classic maps from Destiny 1 or introduce new, innovative ones.
2. Faster Balancing Updates: One of the major issues is that a single meta often lasts for years. This leads to a stagnant experience for players. Regular and, more importantly, faster balancing updates would be crucial to keep PvP dynamic and engaging.
3. Ranked Mode with Unique Rewards: The core appeal of PvP lies in competition between players. Many gamers love testing their skills against others, and a well-developed ranked mode could elevate this experience.
For example, more elaborate and exclusive cosmetics, such as unique armor (similar to Trials gear), could be introduced exclusively for competitive modes.
Additionally, unique weapons for each rank, similar to those available during the Forsaken era, could serve as a powerful motivator and badge of honor for players who excel in PvP.
4. Events and Modes: Introducing new limited-time modes or tournaments would add excitement and help further engage the community.
5. Better Rewards: PvP-specific gear that feels truly unique would provide strong incentives for players to spend more time in Crucible.
I am confident that a well-maintained and dynamic PvP experience, with balanced metas, exciting rewards, and a focus on competitive gameplay, could attract a large audience. Many players love the thrill of proving their skills in competitive environments, and I believe Destiny 2 has the potential to shine once more in this area.
Thank you for creating such an amazing game, and I hope you continue listening to the community's feedback. I look forward to seeing what the future holds!
Best regards,

I understand your frustration and share many of the concerns expressed here. Destiny 2 is a game that means a lot to me personally, and that’s exactly why it’s difficult for me to see the direction PvP has taken. I often find myself shaking my head because I wish for so much more.
However, I want to make it clear that my post is primarily about improvement suggestions for PvP. Of course, cheaters are a huge problem, and I think we all wish they didn’t exist. But for this specific topic, there’s already an excellent post by "MoNki" that thoroughly addresses the issue of cheaters.
My focus here is on how we can improve PvP as a whole – for everyone who loves the game and wants it to return to the exciting direction that brought us joy. I believe most of us are here because we care deeply about Destiny 2. So let’s stay constructive and hope together that Bungie hears our voices.
