- Thread starter DNAbro
- Start date
I might want to play once they get it back to a more D1 style.
Weapon slot changes, does that mean secondary and heavy slots as well? I hope so. The 6 on 6 got me interested, this change could help me make my mind up.

Hey, the first ever one-word sub-title for a Destiny expansion.
Also, that image pretty much confirms the leaks: we're back on Mars (as you can see on the right) but in a new icy zone on Mars (as you can see on the left).

New Raid Laid, so basically. Just a smaller Raid.
For all the issues with Destiny 2, I think the idea of having two smaller Raids in the smaller expansions between the larger Raids in the base game/retail expansion is smart.
Honestly, I'm sort of looking forward to booting it up in the fall and see how things are going...
Definitely a game that I shouldn't have bought the Season Pass for, but no use in crying over spilled milk.
I probably would have already logged back in if it wasn't for all of the other amazing games from the last 6 months.
Changes are coming slow, but at least they're coming I suppose. I'll drop back in for the second DLC on launch as well.
Sounds to me like they are softening the blow of maybe the upcoming dlc being light on content (like the last dlc) with news of what everybody has been asking for. Most people will be looking at the weapon reroll and slot changes as the actual news here. Smart really.
I am at the same place with D2 that I am with Sea of Thieves. I absolutely love the core of the game, but there simply just isnt enough meaningful shit to do and has more systems working against the player rather than giving them a reason to continue playing.
I'm really excited to go back to Mars.
The question is: will it be a completely new area of Mars? Will it overlap with areas from D1?
And I don't need new zones in Destiny's $20 expansions to be the size of EDZ. But they need to be bigger than Mercury. They should aim for the size or Io or Titan and see if they have the ability to do more if possible.

Considering the image has snow in it and the game has teased the polar ice caps of Mars in one of the adventures, no way it's just Mars from D1 reskinned.
So weapon randomization basically when expansion hits.......I bet it's gping to be a pre patch basically with the new systems
In Destiny 1 weapons have randomly rolled perks, in Destiny 2 it was changed to static. This means they are going to introduce some sort of system to bring that back.
Or why feed into their nonsensical pattern at all. Destiny 2 was Bungie's opportunity to learn from the overhaul Taken King brought and expand on that. Instead they took two steps back and fell on their ass.
We shouldn't have to wait a full year for the proper version of the game to release. I hesitate to reward them for making the same mistake twice that could easily happen thrice in the future because Bungie is Bungie.
Was hoping for a Prison of Elders type thing
I'm done with the whole Callus Magic Flying Castle bullshit.
Summer looks like they are not touching much which is dissapointing but whatever I'll be playing World of Warcraft.

1) where are your friends?
2) do you have a PC that can run it at 60fps?
To be fair, if they're adding random perks back to the game and changing how weapon slots work, that's a pretty major change to the backbone of the game design itself. Given that they are doing it as the result of a backlash, it makes sense that it would take a while for them to launch it.
Problem is, it might be too late for some people.
Also, a change like that will likely not require the expansion. It will almost certainly be part of the pre-expansion update much like the pre-Taken King update had major QoL changes.
So after a year will Destiny 2 might start feeling like a sequel to Destiny 1 instead of a reboot?
How does Barrett and his team feel about having to re-do stuff they already created once in D1 in an effort to save D2, I wonder. And is "Seasonal Vendor Progression" their code for "Tess is going to be selling new shit for real money"?
Most of the stuff on the Roadmap has been talked about at some point and isn't new news, but it's nice to have an idea when we should expect these changes and updates. I always appreciate the Roadmap updates.
I'm more curious about some of the May update and the stuff they haven't touched on yet.

September? The expansion will bring me back, but if that's all that it is, I guarantee I'll be more than completely done with this game by then.
If you pay 120+$ yeah.
They got me with the vanilla game, but no way I'm giving them my money to unfuck their game.
Just like in D1, they will nerf the old stuff just before to make sure that the content of the DLC is what everyone will be chasing.
Destiny is not the kind of game you play when you don't have the latest expansion, you're too much left out.
60 fps is purrrrty nice as someone who owns it on PS4 and PC.
Also the FoV. Bungie have this weird obsession with super low FoV on console.
Why not? The entire game has four zones, two of them larger and two smaller. Why can't an expansion 1/3 of the price have a zone the size of the EDZ or at least Nessus?
...they said new activities with this expansion.
On twitter they've also responded multiple times to fans asking about Archon's/PoE/CoO, that they agree Destiny 2 is missing something there. It's definitely more than just a PR nod.
...No. They've talked about this. It's a seasonal version of vendor level in D1. How does "progression" have anything to do with paying real money to Tess?

Man I sold off my copy awhile ago and kind of want to start again fresh on this time PS4 but I can't justify paying $20 + $35 for the expansion pass when I know there's going to be a collection with the new expansion for $60 come September (like Taken King did)
Le sigh

I just can't care anymore. The launch state of Destiny 2 has killed any and all future interest in this series. I hope it's good for the people who are still on board, though.
I can't justify spending another $40+ in September for the changes I'd want to see in the game. Spider-Man, Red Dead, Battlefield, and whatever else is coming out deserve my attention more than D2 at this point. I'll mess with DLC 2 since I already purchased it, but best of luck to them after that.
