Destiny This Week At Bungie 4/16/2020 |
- This Week At Bungie 4/16/2020
- Daily Questions [2020-04-17]
- Hey Bungie, can we get a “state of the game” address so we can see what the future of this game holds and the ways you’re addressing current problems?
- this seasons telesto glitch has finally been found
- I think someone at Bungie has gone insane
- Eververse killed the loot hype of destiny
- Maurice (the German CM) confirmed that the stats for Guardian Games will be adjusted to counter the overwhelming majority of Hunters
- I honestly don't really care about the "live" content or seasonal offerings - I really just want another Age of Triumph that makes old content matter.
- PC players it's been 198 days since we could see who's online
- Sentinels are a dying breed, now making up a tiny fraction (4%) of total players, which less than half that of the next lowest subclass. They could really use a fix/balance pass. Where to start? How about fixing in-super hit registration, bubble orb generation, and the bugged suppressing melee.
- Loosing my job to this pandemic has brought me closer to my family and give more time to something I love doing, Art. Want to share my latest commission piece “You’re all that matters”
- TITAN MASTER RACE. Here are some reasons why Titans should win:
- To ease our pain during this time of the year, I've made a poster based on the leaks for the Fall expansion.
- Revert Box Breathing Nerf
- Warlocks, we must to prove we’re the superior class
- WARNING: Guardian Games has more than 1 Silver only item!!
- Destiny 2: Shadowkeep - Guardian Games - Trailer
- I think Hasapiko is a perfect example of a simple boss encounter that is just plain fun
- Titans, rally up. We need to show which is the best class!
- Bungie for the love of god have guardian games population adjusted
- A traveling vendor that pulls a re-programmed Vex Minotaur around. Make it completely random. Let's give Xur a run for his money.
- I replayed some D1, and I gotta be honest, I prefer D2.
- The auto reload meta wasn’t “healthy” for PVE but man it was loads of fun
- Lest we forget, the Cabal attacked us during a City parade.
- You guys know all those pyramid ships coming is Bagel4k's fault right?
- A hunter cloak without moth holes,rips, burn marks or missing parts is already enough of a reason to play guardian games.
- Make Fenchurch a traveling vendor that sells a rotating selection of eververse items on the side for existing in-game currencies (not bright dust).
| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 03:18 PM PDT Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/48954 This week at Bungie, we prepare for rivalry. Announced earlier this morning, Guardian Games is fast on approach. Beginning April 21 at 10 AM PDT, the games begin. Titans, Hunters, and Warlocks will compete to prove which class is the most dedicated in Destiny 2. Your entry into the competition begins with a visit to Eva Levante. Each Guardian will receive a class item to adorn while taking part in competition. Bronze, silver, and gold medals will be available to earn daily, each of which will focus on specific game modes. To earn medals, equip your new class item, defeat enemies, pick up laurels on the battlefield, and advance your quest for the medals you desire. We fully acknowledge that class populations are a little lopsided. Hunters are so fabulous with their capes that there are indeed more of them than Warlocks or Titans. To help offset this (so Hunters don't steal the show every day), medals will be weighted slightly per class to maintain an even playing field. We aren't fiddling with the numbers to force wins on alternate classes – Hunters could still take this entire thing if they put enough effort in. Now, about those class items. At daily reset, your Cloak, Mark, or Bond will update to reflect what placement your team has taken. As an example, if Titans took the "W" for day one, their Mark will update with a wonderful gold sigil. With Warlocks in second and Hunters in third, their class items would be updated to feature silver and bronze, respectively. So, what's the ultimate prize? At the end of the event, your daily placements will be combined for a final score. Depending on your team's standings, your class items will be locked to their respective placements for the remainder of the year. If you're looking for more ways to represent your class, Eva has you covered. Each week, you'll be offered a free quest to earn an Exotic Ghost Shell, one themed to each Guardian class. Complete this quest every week to collect all three! Additionally, a new Exotic Machine Gun will become available during this event. We look forward to seeing what mayhem this tool of destruction will inspire when you get it in your hands. Eververse will also have some items in store for the event. A single Finisher will be available for Silver only, while all other items may be purchased with Bright Dust as they appear on the storefront. As a note, all Guardian Games weekly/repeatable bounties will grant Bright Dust to match previous Seasonal events. Guardian Games begins upon the weekly reset – this Tuesday at 10 AM PDT. Make sure to launch your game a little early to grab the required Update 2.8.1. More on that in the Player Support Report below! Guardian's Heart UpdateAt the time of writing this article, the Guardian's Heart Charity Initiative has generated over $450,000 for relief efforts in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. For those that may not be up to speed, for this fundraising effort we've partnered with Direct Relief, who will work with a network of providers across the globe to deliver the supplies that healthcare workers need. This includes basic personal protective equipment, including gloves, masks, gowns, and face shields. The hospitals where they work will also receive food covers, prescription medication, portable oxygen concentrators, ventilators, and other intensive care unit equipment. Any donation of $20 or more will earn you the exclusive Guardian's Heart emblem. As a quick note, these will be distributed by Bungie within a week of your donation. Keep an eye out, as the email may be filtered to promotional or even spam folders in your inbox. To help raise awareness and share some of the community action, we're hosting a series of Bungie Bounties for as long as this fundraising initiative lasts. This isn't restricted to North American Guardians, mind you. This is a worldwide effort, so we'll naturally have some international bounties for you to chase. We're getting some final details together for the full calendar. Stay tuned to find out who you'll be chasing over the next week. We're also partnering with Guardians around the world to host a variety of Destiny streams that feature raid challenges, dungeon runs, and more. If you'd like to show your support and host a stream for this initiative, get in touch with us. Stay tuned to @Bungie for announcements. Problem ChildrenIt seems that Guardian Games kicked off a little early for some Exotic items in our game, in terms of competition. Telesto, Winter's Guile, and Wormgod Caress are eyeing the top spot for "biggest problem child" in our sandbox. The Destiny Player Support team has an update on their standings. This is their report.
Straight to Home VideoWith more time at home, we're finding ourselves able to watch a few more movies. Our daily binges of Netflix can only carry us so far, but thankfully we have some awesome Destiny content to watch on the Creations page. Movie of the Week: Fourth Horseman Rides Again Honorable Mention: 200 IQ Tether If you're a winner, make sure that your Bungie.net profile (and any profile of someone that contributed) is included in the description of your video. Without that key piece of information, we're unable to slap that rightfully deserved emblem on your collections tab. So, we come to a close on another TWAB but we understand that there are some topics that weren't covered on here that you may have strong desire to know more about. Eververse, Trials improvements, our plans to address FOMO, tackling the bounty problem, and more. There are also questions like "What about feeling like players can't play their way? What about Ritual weapons, anti-cheat improvements, etc?" . We've been having frequent syncs to talk through these issues and more. Many of them require a long-term plan with short-term mitigation to help ease the pain. The last thing we want to do is over-commit to changes that ultimately may be reversed, or sign the team up for work that leads to crunch. We don't want to make promises we know we can't keep, so to speak. Over the next few weeks, we hope to solidify some plans and get them communicated out. We're looking at what can be accomplished in Season 11, which is coming much faster than many of us can believe. Some topics will be tackled in Season 12, as they'll require larger scale systematic changes. Thank you again to everyone that's been giving feedback on Destiny over the years. This train never stops, and we hope to share our next steps with you soon. Until next time, we'll see you out there in the wild. Cheers, -dmg04 [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 06:55 AM PDT If you want people to keep playing your game, I feel like we need a "state of the union address" to tell us that you've been taking our considerations in stride and what your have planned for the next year. Many have lost faith in your company and in the game because there hasn't been any communication from you guys on big issues in Destiny: TRIALS, cheaters, crashes, slow menus, glaring weapon bugs, server bugs, the bounty system being the core of the game, Eververse, the season pass, Ritual/Pinnacle weapons...etc. We need to hear about the state of the game, the problems happening, the ways you're going to fix it, and things you have in the pipeline to restore community faith in your game. We need this more than ever. Edit: As this is blowing up a bit, I'd like to clarify something. I know that this season (and perhaps a lot of the fall expansion is already finished), but I'd like them to address the current state even if those things won't be able to be implemented yet. At least bring us a list of things you're currently working on and things your are trying to fix, community feedback, and error codes. Give us a long Q and A with questions and things we've brought up and just address them. Edit 2: Adding some names for some exposure — u/Cozmo23 u/dmg04 [link] [comments] |

| Eververse killed the loot hype of destiny Posted: 16 Apr 2020 10:26 AM PDT Now hear me out. I know there are several threads of how bad everse is, but i realized, that the way it is right now it just kills completely the hype of events. As I saw the trailer I didnt thought what I had to do to get these outfits. No my first thought was: "hmm how much silver are they costing?" Every Item except for the exotic and the standard armor I will instantly think of eververse and that just dont really get me hyped at all. Why should I even play it, except for this event where I dont know much at all other than that we compete against other Classes. Yeah maybe for the exotic, but then again I can just wait a year that it is in the loot pool(and probably nerfed too hell if it is a fun weapon). Everything else will be behind another paywall and I just dont want to use money to get it. I actually want to play for cool stuff. To be honest this complete Event seems so unnecessary and they should have put their ressources into something useful... [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 12:06 PM PDT Heroic strikes with skeleton keys, adept loot in raids with raids being at current difficulty levels, strike specific loot in heroics, gambit perfected with some minor new loot.....so much of the game is going unused. I would MUCH rather have these things added to liven up the game we already have and bring Destiny 2 to it's best possible state than these seasonal offerings. I get the feeling it would even take less manpower. Age of Triumph was a great time for Destiny. It would be a really good fit for Destiny 2. [link] [comments] |
| PC players it's been 198 days since we could see who's online Posted: 16 Apr 2020 07:19 AM PDT In the Roster page we still can't invite, group, or inspect Clanmates unless they are added to steam friends. edit: added a word [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 12:16 PM PDT Quick edit: I'm really referring to PvP here. In pve sentinel seems to be pretty solid IMO. As a Sentinel main, I'm seeing fewer and fewer of my companions in the field. Part of that might be Titans themselves being in a rough spot, not having the mobility options of Hunters or Warlocks (at least on console where you can't flick 180 and shoulder charge out of trouble). I'm not asking for any crazy buffs (although some sort of mobility/change of direction option would be nice), but how about just having the subclass actually work the way it's supposed to? Three major bugs affecting the class are:
Sentinel has been my go-to since Forsaken, and I'd love to see this class get some bug-fix love and be as good as it could be. [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 04:18 PM PDT We cant auto load weapons any more with well and rally so I feel this nerf no longer needs to remain. There are already perks that do great extra damage i feel this is a hold over of a time that no longer exists. It could also be a great perk on some 150 scouts. Give them that fighting edge over some snipers [link] [comments] |
| Warlocks, we must to prove we’re the superior class Posted: 16 Apr 2020 06:19 PM PDT there's like 7 of us, please do the bounties (what else would the be?) [link] [comments] |
| WARNING: Guardian Games has more than 1 Silver only item!! Posted: 16 Apr 2020 05:18 PM PDT Today's TWAB says that there's only 1 Silver Only item, but my Eververse data shows that to be incorrect. The following items are currently slated to be Silver Only
This data could change but since I started tracking/datamining Eververse data Bungie has not updated the item layout after a Season starts since Season of Opulence. [link] [comments] |

| I think Hasapiko is a perfect example of a simple boss encounter that is just plain fun Posted: 16 Apr 2020 08:27 AM PDT I just loaded up Menagerie for the first time in a few months. Hasapiko is the boss this week, and if he don't remember he's the one that summons the moving death walls. Overall the boss encounter really isn't that complicated: run to a safe spot, do some damage, avoid the death walls. I think just the constant movement is what makes it enjoyable. It allows for some flexibility with weapons too. I was running a Quickdraw + Autoloading rocket launcher + Borealis with Dragon's Shadow chest-piece on the hunter. Proc Ionic return, unload a magazine, switch to rocket launcher before reloading Borealis, fire off a shot, dodge to reload (reloading your stowed Borealis in the process), fire off another shot, and switch back to Borealis. Dragon's shadow reload while the Borealis is stowed maintains the Ionic return perk! Mix in some charged with light action and you've got yourself a fun little build there. [link] [comments] |
| Titans, rally up. We need to show which is the best class! Posted: 16 Apr 2020 09:11 AM PDT It is not important if you like punching, aping or if you fight like someone with brain... Erm I mean with headbutts. We are all Titans. Let us win the upcoming guardian games. Make Daddy Shaxx proud of us! TITANS TOGETHER STRONG! Edit: I love some reactions here...

| Bungie for the love of god have guardian games population adjusted Posted: 16 Apr 2020 07:35 AM PDT I don't want this to be a competition for who can come in second, and then be stuck with a giant hunter statue in the tower for a year. *gun clicks and is pointed to my karma's head ok ok, I said there are more hunters not that they were op, spare my karma [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 08:45 AM PDT Running around Nessus you spot a cloaked vendor walking down a path, pulling a reprogrammed Vex Minotaur that has gear loaded on it's back. Being a curious Guardian, you wonder what they have. Loot? Riches of this world? A fabled rocket launcher? Hold [button] to talk: Enigmatic Vendor: "Roads less traveled lead to things unseen. These wares are hard to come by, but with enough "coin"...I'll see what I can do". [Opens Inventory]:
After purchasing ONE item, the Enigmatic Vendor thanks you, "Search the dark places, perhaps you'll find something you want?" Transmats to another location or to perhaps... another time?
Obviously the time and place could be few and far between, perhaps a couple times a month, shows up in a random location that relies on the community to find. He won't always show up where you think he is. It's always random. Has some cool gear, expensive yeah, but only this vendor has it. I don't know about you, but I would like some mystery and accidentally stumble upon things I never expected to be there and to spend hard earned currency on other things. Edit: Any other "special items"or ideas out there that the vendor should have? Edit 2: Adjusted pricing, seemed a little high for some. [link] [comments] |
| I replayed some D1, and I gotta be honest, I prefer D2. Posted: 16 Apr 2020 12:54 PM PDT |
| The auto reload meta wasn’t “healthy” for PVE but man it was loads of fun Posted: 16 Apr 2020 07:57 AM PDT Imagine 4th Horseman with auto reloading..... IMAGINE!!!! [link] [comments] |
| Lest we forget, the Cabal attacked us during a City parade. Posted: 16 Apr 2020 11:39 AM PDT Which is why we were wearing this armor when we started the vanilla D2 campaign. Now, if I was an herald of the Darkness and looking for a party to crash, the Guardian Games would be my first choice. [link] [comments] |
| You guys know all those pyramid ships coming is Bagel4k's fault right? Posted: 16 Apr 2020 01:40 AM PDT Everything was going nicely until Bagel solo'd Shattered Throne at 999 power and killed Dûl Incaru. That woke Savathûn up and basically told her that we were powerful enough to be worth killing for the sword logic rep. She has a bounty from one of the worm god vendors and she's got max fireteam bonuses. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 05:27 PM PDT Seriously though it's a rare sight in D2 to get a nice cloak. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Apr 2020 10:18 PM PDT Saw a post from u/blue_13 about an idea for a new traveling vendor selling unique items. Here is the link for reference: My alternative idea is to have Fenchurch randomly appear in-game unannounced periodically with a rotating selection of eververse items for sale for in-game currencies (not bright dust). The reason he is never around for Tess is he is illicitly selling goods on the side for his own profits. Ideally selling items that were not available in the EV store at that particular time. Unlikely that Bungie would take items out of the cash shop and put them in-game? Absolutely...but a guy can dream right? [link] [comments] |
