So they turned off the XP scaling, but doubled the amount you need to gain a level?

Oh bravo Bungie. Bravo.

Cool, this does the opposite of what they wanted because it double fucks people doing slow, low reward activities *cough* Crucible *cough* so they just piss off the entire player base AND make mindless grinding public events even more appealing for the few still willing to put up with this.

As a guy who has played Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 I’m astounded that Bungie attempted to fix a screwed up system and made something worse

This is so unlike them, I can't believe they'd do something like this, what a letdown

They should buff xp gain by 0.04% and claim in was intentional.

It was picked up by Janet from your local credit union and will be updated via staff Guess The Number Of Jellybeans In The Small Jar contest.

You can ask someone who works there the exact number after the reveal but it's really low and doesn't matter, or you can get a job there and maybe win a $100 gift card to Outback. Janet will expect a meal tho. But you'll probably get laid! Please report back.

Pretty good

No stream tomorrow

DeeJ posted:

Tomorrow, we had planned to conduct the final stream prior to the launch of “Curse of Osiris” to show off some of the weapons and armor the expansion includes. Instead, we are investing all our efforts into delivering some higher priority information about Destiny 2. You’ll hear from studio leadership about their assessment of Destiny all up, they’ll talk about our goals for the game going forward, and you’ll also learn about how we’re reacting to your feedback with some game updates that will arrive in the next few weeks.

That will appear on the Bungie Blog on Wednesday.

Thank you,

Hmm what's more important stuff that affects the game and average player (guns, aesthetics) or navel gazing fart huffing

Also did I read right that they fixed the xp gains but doubled the requirements to level up effectively leaving the player in the same position

They made changes that eliminated the game/API discrepancy that reddit was screaming about while keeping as much of everything else the same as possible. Did you think they were going to let everyone level up faster and more frequently just because they got caught with their pants down?

They could basically say "here's 6v6 or 8v8" and people would come back long enough to maybe buy something from eververse once

It's both funny and sad that the state of the game is so bad they're too scared to hold another live stream or even get studio leadership on there. It will be interesting to read the blog update but if it's just an insistence that they're listening rather than a public commitment to making some of the big changes the game needs then there's no point.

Yeah, this would be a good quick-fix to push out within the next few weeks if they're serious.

Most of the problems of Destiny 2 are hidding in plain view

The worst thing is that I feel they are reacting to the news, what they want to stop is more and more journalist talking about destiny.

Journalist are kind of fad based, and the current fad is to exploit gamers rage about loot boxes. The narrative of loot boxes can be extended to talk about a few Destiny problems and so is scaring that Destiny will end sinking down EA fake wall street money.

What I'm getting at is that Bungie usually takes the smallest steps possible with things like this. It would be great to see some big changes instead and hopefully with the state of the game being what it is they feel confident enough to do something like that.

Bungie execs in darkly lit meeting when the "player engagement graph over time" shows up and it somehow goes into the negative

or it shows more people playing D1 than D2
