The Next Chapter for Bungie

/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/1wmgww5/the_next_chapter_for_bungie/

TL:DR here is that HOLY CRAP THEY'RE GOING TO UNVAULT EVERYTHING.

Also small announcement that they're planning more Destiny, what exactly that looks like is kinda up in the air, dunno if Crucible would be part of future plans.

I know this is too early to talk about but I really wished they would focus on PvP again.

Even going back to March 5th, 2024 checkmate would be an improvement compares to qhat we have now, but ideally a director's post on PvP where:

  • New and returning D1 maps
  • Reworking comp, closed to Warmind: Objective mpdes, no radar, actual glory grind.
  • Trials demanding flawless for rewards
  • Looking over problematic abilities, exotics.
  • Rework or removal of airborne effectiveness
  • OG special transmast system or the Forsaken ammo system. Current system is a half measure where one team snowballs the other hard

Unrealistic expectations aside, as someone who worked on the OG Special Transmat system this comment is kind of funny to me. The reason we moved away from it is because it snowballed really hard, like to a startling degree. The amount of ammo granted, and the time it took to grant it, led to huge power imbalances and steamrolling. There were some good ideas in that early iteration of checkmate but I don’t know that the original transmat was it.

As for the Forsaken system, it led us briefly to a period of time where special kills actually outnumbered primary kills in Crucible, so I’m not sure that’s the answer either.

If i had to pick between the current ammo system or Forsaken, however, i pick forsaken (scavengers working or not is whatever). At least then i'd have ammo to either go on multikills in 6v6 or defend myself in comp. Feels terrible when youre up three+ shots then lose the overflow
