At this point I really hope BUNGiE is working on something new because D2 is completely flat to me but I feel like Activision will want to milk Destiny as much as possible. 10yr contract right?

Cabal got the most love since they're the main campaign:
- Dogs (new unit)
- Incendiors (new unit)
- Collossi now have stun missiles
- Legionairies now have blade grenades
- Phalanxes have the slide out shield as you said
- Psions now have vaulting pulse grenades (a key mechanic in the Calus fight), new sniper rifle and jet pack along the ground
- Wretch (new unit)
- New 3 round launcher for Captains & Vandals
- Wretches and vandals now scurry along the ground
- Laser-based weapon for Harpies and Minotaurs
- Minotaurs now have crit spots
- Fanatics are now a fully fledged unit, not just a special unit
- Fire grenade
- Knights have 3 way fire gun
- Can't remember anything, tbh. But they're only in like 1-2 levels. Maybe I'm missing something.
I know I'm forgetting some stuff too.
So there definitely are new units and new behaviors. Much more than Destiny 2 is getting credit for.
Oh boy, a chest on EDZ with no loot in it. I guess that's still a thing. Guess I'm exploiting by using my scout report, eh Bungie?

What is your favorite activity in Destiny 2?
I really enjoy the Leviathan raid.
I don't know if you realize it or not but you posted the same thing three times on this page.
That's good to hear!
This thing you're doing is weird.
Third verse, same as the first.
Is this some meta-commentary about how Bungie continues to repeat and re-use content?
Some of these requirements for the faction armor ornaments make me cry. I'd love to have a full set of something. Hopefully I can finish a few with the changes coming.
Could you imagine how much more satisfying Destiny 2 would be if the exotic emotes and especially Ghosts dropped randomly from activities with a low rate?
I imagine being in a strike with friends and seeing that or the amazing galaxy-looking Ghost drop at the end, knowing it was a rare drop. It would be like seeing a Gjallarhorn drop in Y1.
Destiny needs that again. I understand Eververse is here to stay but I think they had a fairly okay balance in D1. They went over the top here. There needs to be a mix of exotic and legendary Ghosts, Sparrows, ships and emotes that drop from both Bright Engrams and in-game activities.
This would be a good solution. Make the drop rates super low so they're surprising and fun. I doubt it would hurt the Eververse store much. Hell, I could see some strike specific ornaments being used instead of just strike specific loot. People like cosmetic chasing too.
Is the fix in to assign up to four different emotes?
tried that yesterday and nothing happened, just kept assigning salty.....as if the game knew...

Strike, planet, raid, and crucible specific emotes, sparrows, shaders, ghosts etc etc etc would all be huge incentives to replay content imo.
Why are you quoting a post, then starting a completely different conversation? I reckon you're trying to change the negative tilt this thread has, but it has that negative weight for a reason.
It should be easier to get the armor itself once it comes around again, since we can buy them now.
I love how they're doing ornaments. I wish they introduced that for the planetary armor sets as well.
... Along with more vault space because I was forced to delete most of my planetary armor sets.
The Eververse company is such a massive downer. So many cool loot options just get shoved into it.
I'm amazed I put more hours into Destiny in my life than any other game (other than WoW) and here we are 1 expansion in...I'm not even playing.
Bungie what happened?

I want to know what people like about the game they're playing and talking about.
What's your favorite gun to use in Destiny 2?
The user was warned for this post. There are better ways to respond to criticism than to dismiss another user's opinions in an overly antagonistic way.
Wait, it's Bungie's fault you bought into a circlejerk of online negativity?
The fact that the list is composed of the same races from the original was bad enough for me. Didn't want to fight the vex and taken for the billionth time after the first game. That small list of behavioral changes doesn't cut it imo.
Prometheus Lens
a 5........out of 5
Holy shit. It's like a grenade you can headshot people with

it's prettly legit takes about 2 precision burst to kill someome, 3 if you aim for the body, kills give you instant healt regen and precision kills auto-reload the magso you're back in the fight.
it's just a tic too slower than the Last Hope/The Last Dance so it isn't dramatically op.
What's your end goal here? To defend destiny against the "haters"? Conkerkid11 brought up a valid point that they included a time limitation on chest gathering, which proves that the system they designed in the first place is flawed if the need to stop players from playing the game. You didn't respond to him, merely quoted him and proceeded to only ask for a positive about the game. Discussion isn't about limiting replies to positives.
I don't have a favorite gun, because to me, they are almost all underwhelming, especially compared to the guns in destiny 1.
I'm not a huge fan of most of the armor at the moment. I might want the Tess set for my Hunter.
Also as a Hunter with the STOMPE exotic boots the infinite forest is pretty cool. It's like playing a game of The Floor is Lava and just running and jump pass all of the enemies.

It's Bungie's fault for not communicating with their dedicated community. Bungie's fault for being deceptive and trying to make ppl buy silver for bright engrams by purposely crippling XP gains, and when caught saying oops not working as intended. Bungie's fault for delivering a lackluster paid DLC three months in that locks a lot of the nice looking gear, emotes, etc. behind the said bright engrams.
Why do you read into his post and reply with such BS?
Would you speak to someone like this if you were face to face? I hope the mods here take posts like this seriously otherwise GAF has just changed its name.
all he is doing is asking a question to get away from the salt mine that this place is. Didn't realize positivity was such a bad thing.
I honestly don't know what your deal is.
Liking the game, yet being critical aren't mutually exclusive. I'll ultimately decide if I want to continue supporting the game or not. Until then, I'll still play it, yet voice my concerns regarding how I feel the game should be fixed over time.
If you enjoy the game as is, great. I'm not trying take that away from or anyone else.

I think someone who posts an anecdote about how they played Destiny 1 in a thread about Destiny 2 DLC is actually more distracting to the discussion than anyone pointing out that the negativity in here is ridiculous. This is like FFXV thread on the old site-tier of sodium overdose.
Got Graviton Forfeit to drop. I loved it in D1. I still like it, and it definitely works well with the Nightstalker perk tree that has the invisible smoke, but I just don't know if I want to use it over Orpheus Rig.
Calling it a "salt mine" is handwaving any negative criticisms of the game. I'm sure there would be more positive talk if Bungie actually announced major changes to the core gameplay that would bring things far closer to destiny 1. As of now, there doesn't seem to be much to be positive about, and if you can't handle criticism of a game, and are unable to discuss said criticism, then quoting people and trying to change their discussion isn't helpful for anyone.
He is trolling. That's not positivity. That's gamefaqs level buffoonery.
Wow okay. I'm going to take a breather from here and just enjoy the game tonight. I'll try again tomorrow.
I'm not trolling and I'm not even a member of GameFAQs.
What class do you like the most?
You're trolling in the form of deflecting negative critique and trying to fill the thread with low effort questions that aren't meant to create meaningful discussion. Can you really not see what you are doing?
The inability to use sparrows on mercury just makes it feel like an annoying mission from the base campaign except running to a location never gets less tedious...even moreso because it's clearly some elementary-school psychology attempt to convince me that the location is bigger than it is. Thanks for permanently inconveniencing me for the sake of a laughable attempt at masking your content effort guys.
So any stand out legendary weapons yet? the auto rifle from Ikora reward seems good. Still working my way thru the story just got the the first "strike mission" (already played it in strike playlist).
No luck on exotics yet, only got 1 new thing and it makes invso last 2 seconds longer, don't see my self using it.
