Edit: This list is being retired. [b][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/217413354]The new list can be found here[/url][/b].
Quoted below is the existing Community Wish List that was being curated by Destiny Player Support. I’m taking over this initiative and will be updating the list once a week. I love reading feedback, but we can all agree that there is a lot of it to sort through. In order to make sure you get your idea seen, post a new topic to the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Topics/0/Default/None/Feedback]#Feedback[/url] forum and add the tag #CommunityWishList. This will give us an easy way to review all of your ideas you would like to be added to the list.
Please remember that this is not a To-Do List for Bungie. We can’t promise that every idea is being worked on actively. Our goal here is to confirm that your feedback has been received. Everything on this list are things that the players of Destiny have repeatedly asked for.

I seriously doubt that Destiny can be further significantly improved without major code changes that are less likely to happen if a full price (and coded from scratch) sequel is already in development? If possible, please list the top 10 most doable changes (in ascending difficulty order) for the dev team, then let the community vote on which 3 changes they should attempt first, if needs be just implement in the sequel as long as the key lessons are learned from the last two years of laggy PvP (just get a better ban system and dedicated servers?) and mostly unnecessary weapon nerfs (just buff everything else don't make bullet sponge bosses!). My guess is that novel or custom game modes and ranked playlists, etc. are much easier to add than completely new content, perhaps encourage experimental options through voluntary limited time events and just gather feedback via stats on the number of volunteers and drop off rates? How hard is it to mix more PvE elements into PvP maps and vice versa? Maybe add some increasingly difficult machine learning AI bots that actually learn a play style rather than just following set paths all the time? Do a web search for videos of the reaper bot in action to see what I mean. Finally, ignore all those haters with rose tinted specs on these forums, this game may get a little stale after playing for hundreds of hours but how many other games truly compare in terms of time invested versus the endgame activities available?
