I'm Hype for Forsaken but honestly it's bizarre how they have no intention changing the Shader system.

40 seems fair if the content equals that of Taken King.

After rewatching bungles stream it looks like the new armor perk system could potentially have a similar effect as typical RPG armor sets. Potentially. If each piece of armor in a set had perks that complimented each other, it would incite players to go out and collect them.
Another thing they need to do is set up ranks and ornament sets for all the planetary factions. Use planetary activities like adventures, patrols, and lost sectors as objectives for unlocking the ornament pieces. Destiny 2's biggest problem from the start is that its a loot grind game where grinding half the activities in the game is worthless. They have an opportunity here to make everything in the game viable and worth the players time. On another note, I'm not going to get my hopes up for the upcoming in game lore, but ideally I'd want to see the entire grimoire of D1 in the game as well as a new grimoire for D2. I'm a lore fiend and one of the biggest things I missed in D2 was the grimoire. Being able to read about all the major enemies I faced as well as all the cool little side stories....even back stories on crucible maps was cool. But again, those are just my hopes. I'm not actually expecting them to go that far. |
Here's hoping they're not gonna punish single players anymore.
|
Destiny is a social game.
|
Eeeehhh...they still need to implement something to allow solo players to keep up. That is why I put down D1 after awhile. They cant expect you to run with your squad every single time. Not everyone works the same schedules, or are even in the same time zone.
Once you start falling behind thats it. |
It needs a solo player route.
That invisible wall gotta come down. |
Matchmaking for the raid, nightfall, and escalation protocol is literally all you need to do to appeal to the casual crowd. Keep trials and prestige raids group up only as your elite hardcore modes.
|
No idea why nightfall still doesn't have matchmaking. At this point its easier than heroics.
|
I'd shake up Trials a touch by adding another mode. Keep your 3-on-3 for your hardcore/co-op.
Do a battle royale/free-for-all mode (since it's all the rage these days) with like 6-8 players, no respawn, best of 10 rounds on a small/medium size map. Top half of players get a pass on the card, bottom half a strike. Another route for single player. |
Battle Royale would be a disaster in Destiny. Unless you build your subclass abilities up and loot gear in the match.

Eh. Its two months after Forsaken. I can get plenty of grinding in between then and fallout.
|
The new level cap is 60 with a Light cap of 600. If they retain how progress is handled you will not have time lol. I think that's the largest cap increase they ever did.
|
Wow. That's...wow. That's a huge blow to the solo players.
|
That depends on where the soft cap is for light level. Plenty easy to level up solo before that.
|
Forsaken will have 4 new strikes. 1 being a PS exclusive. Better at least release the current exclusive strike on Xbox before forsaken drops.
Let PS owners have an exclusive sparrow or something. Locking away content like strikes needs to fucking stop. |
Usually the exclusives from the year before are unlocked for xbox. I don't know why they still do this given the issues they have fixing things. Nothing special about the exclusive stuff anyway.
|
Wow another Strike locked to Playstation owners. Just...fucking hell.

SPOILER: show |
Bungie wants you to buy it to makes money. Also they pretty open about Cayde at E3. It's literally in the trailer. They're so open I'm thinking some swerve is going on.
|
The forsaken are undead. Your guardian will use whatever method of resurrection they have to revive cayde.
They're not killing off their only marketable NPC. Who's gonna be the face of Destiny? Zavala? Yeah, that guys a lot of fun at parties. |
Beneath the ruins of the Cosmodrome...

3-5 give me a little hope that bungie is finally getting that loot grind games require meaningful content and rewards to stay relevant. We'll see. |
"Yes you can equip three shotguns."
"Well how does ammo work?" "We don't know yet." I've said on the Destiny forums that this is going to be a disaster and they're not making any sense of it. There was a good reason for D2's slot system and this is gonna be a case of careful what you wish for. |
I'll believe #5 when I see it.
A "solo alternative". They're finally figuring this out? |
I guess I could see causes death being permanent if they are serious about changing the tone. A more serious approach is definitely a better fit for the setting and lore.
|
They can continue by killing off Failsafe.
|
Oh god yes. Fucking Glados wannabe.
|
YOU DO NOT GET TO SAY SHIT ABOUT MY AI WAIFU!
|
She's fucking cringe worthy.
|
Easily the worst D2 character. I can't stand every attempt at her 'comedy'.
|
"You're gonna have to maaaaake theeeeem."
*Turn off console |
In other news I joined a group on The100 and chatted with them a bit on their discord. So it looks like I might finally get in on the raiding business. Bunch of chill, cool dudes around 35-65 years old. So I don't have to worry about getting ordered around by an obnoxious 15 year old.
|
Damn. Got into a raid group, but most of the squad were first timers, myself included, so it took a while to get to the boss. After a few tries on Calus, someone had to leave, and we couldn't get anyone else.
Still, I got a whole bunch of powerful gear, and now I know the mechanics of the raid. Having now personally gone through it, I definitely understand bungies reluctance to add matchmaking. You can get away with one person not being micced up. Maybe 2 if the rest of the squad are experienced raiders. Any more than that, I just don't see how it would be possible. Given how little people communicate in this game it would likely end in disaster. |
I just need the damn shaders.
