Hey totes write code too brah! And like, you have no write to say anything cuz you're a -blam!-in nerd! I wrote code for every mmo ever. I'm like the inspector gadget of the gaming industry. Add new things to games is as easy as me sayin "go go gadget rocket dildo!" So plz nuff said, I complain cuz I actualy in fact created an entire copy of destiny from scratch and my version has infinite vault space and no ammo glitches and I gave crota a boot and now the final boss is xur, and he drops all the exotics at once! So stfu cuz you don't know anything bout nothin cuz you're a GOD...DAMN...NEEEEERRRRD

Everyone has their own opinion about this, even you but posts like this is why the communitys already so bad. As long as this keeps going things won't get better, they'll Implement a fix at some point people will be happy, but then guess what more content will come out they'll be new bugs more problems, I could honestly care less about what someone told you about codeing weather It's family or not it all really depends on the company themselves, look around at different mmo's some work well some don't, it isnt always the codeing that's the problem.

Lmao @ this thread "Um, excuse me, I wrote a 'hello world' program in C++ so even I know all you have to do is declare your heavy ammo as a global variable (lol people thinking using those is good/safe practice) and modify it after the user spawns. DUH." People looooove talking out of their asses about shit they know nothing about. On a related note, I don't see why doctors just don't cure cancer already. All they need to do is just make a pill that specifically targets the bad cells. It's not that hard.

I've only taken 2 programming class but I feel like it wouldn't be hard to increase vault space. Maybe they have a nested for loop for the columns and rows and would just have to add more? Obviously I'm not an expert yet but logically it doesn't seem hard.

Back again to bump this. Great thread!!!

Unless YOU are programmer STFU. And yes My day job is software engineer in gaming industry. You have no -blam!-ing right to bitch at the rest of the community saying coding is hard and shit... Because you are not "coder".... Way to get me fired up... I -blam!-ing hate idiot like pretending to know something and ends up being someone you know or close that knows... Get a -blam!-ing life meg!

I have no degree in video game design. I do however have vast experiences in programming with several languages. I prefer the good ol' C++ (If you get the joke for the name I applaud you) but am familiar with the managed code that Destiny probably uses giving the proliferation of C# in most shops. From my understanding the devs create a base heavy ammo variable, let's name this [b]CurrentHeavyAmmo[/b] which is updated during every loop. They then have a constant for what we are calling [b]HeavyAmmoPerk[/b]. When the game logic spawns the player it reads [b]CurrentHeavyAmmo[/b] before reading [b]HeavyAmmoPerk[/b] which is why Bungie says we are losing ammo. I speculate that the +2 generated by [b]HeavyAmmoPerk[/b] is being removed from [b]CurrentHeavyAmmo[/b] based upon the way they said the spawn loop reads data from the server but it is not being added again for whatever reason. The simple solution to this, that [u][i][b]should not[/b][/i][/u] break anything, would be to define a new variable that we will call [b]ModifiedHeavyAmmo[/b] where: [b]ModifiedHeavyAmmo[/b] == [b]CurrentHeavyAmmo[/b]+[b]HeavyAmmoPerk[/b]. During the de-spawn (death) loop this variable is updated and called upon just before the spawn loop is completed with a simple [b]CurrentHeavyAmmo[/b]==[b]ModifiedHeavyAmmo[/b]. It is not a hard thing to fix and it does not take 5+ months to do. As far as vault storage goes that information is, most likely, stored in a database that can very easily be added to. To implement it in the game you would need to do a bit more than the, above mentioned, heavy ammo fix but it's not much more. Essentially you create a few new GUI assets that allow the player to flip between "pages" in their vault and each page reads from a specific range of database cells. You create a system to check what page the player is on by declaring a variable for [b]VaultWeaponPage[/b] and set that to whatever page the player is currently on. When adding or removing from the vault you check [b]VaultWeaponPage[/b] and [b]VaultWeaponCell[/b] (the actual grid location) and parse the two which will give you the relevant database cell location to read/write to. Go ahead and run this past your "pseudo-uncle" to give to his houses' programmers. They'll tell you the same thing.

Is programming hard at first? My cousin is giving me private lessons on Java and says this is the best way to begin with. I wanted to start with C or c++ but no, he says it will help be get a better understanding of getting used to other "languages."

Well seeing as people need to buy more heavy ammo because of bungies mistake they should drop the price from 950 to something like 400 to make up for it and sell it through xur every week until its fixed.

If it is a difficult change, they didn't think it through very well. They created a game that supposed to be ever expanding and yet the vault space is static.

or, since they are a multi-million dollar company, they could have thought about all this stuff BEFORE they released the game. You know, since this is what they do for a living and putting hundreds of millions of dollars into a game, would would think they would have already planned for something like this.... the devil is in the details, so they say... just a thought....juuuust a thought...

I'm actually one semester off of getting my Bachelor's degree in software engineering and it should not be hard to change something like vault space. They already have code that determines how something is deposited so changing the capacity should be as simple as changing the integer stored in a variable somewhere. If the deposit code has bounds checking on it, one number there would have to be changed as well. The GUI adjustment for vault space would be a bit more difficult unless they just decided to shrink the current icon size (older folks might be disappointed with that though).

uhhhhh the vault could have just been BIGGER the first time around, it ain't freaking rocket science. Tell the tard that designed the vault to look at his early notes and EXPAND IT.
