OK. Lets talk. I love this game. And i understand this is the foundation of something that is going to be truly amazing, and im here for the 10 year long haul. I dont think u can drive me away because pretty much the mechanics of this game are mind blowing. ANd i love it. However. My issues that need to be adressed.
The Loot Cave aka "Glory Hole" in skywatch. Make it go away. I dont care how. It is sadly the path of least resistance. Hell i grinded it too. Mainly because i expected it to be patched ASAP. Im hoping you patch this tomorrow. But while it is there, people will farm it. Fact. Another fact, there is more than one loot cave sadly. The only solutions to this i can think of are there needs to be level 28 strikes, and strikes need to be rewarding. Because as of now, 2 weekly strikes is a bore.
Which leads to my next point. Loot Sucks From Strikes. Big time. Its good for nightfal and weekly heroic and all that. But to hop on to level 24 strike playlist? is this a joke? So boring...........
Strikes Need Raid Mechanics. By this i mean the boss fights. The vault of glass was alot of fun. I love it. But i want more mechanics in the boss fights other than shoot till this wave of adds comes. clear adds. nuke boss. clear adds nuke boss. clear adds nuke boss.
Exotics. Stop letting them drop. Period. They are supposed to be unique. A story of WHERE or HOW we found them. Not "oh i got it from a random pvp match i did mediocre in" or " ya i turned in 4 purples and 1 just happened to be Suros Regime". Lets please make them actually Exotic.
Also Please Add Skip to Cutscenes after we have watched them once. I think ive seen the same ones dozens of times now.... and im sick of waiting. Im impatient. Feed me. Right Meow.
THE FORUMS
I have actually ENJOYED the forums for a while now. I mainly use the app. And i enjoy it here. Even the floods antics were fun. I just came back since Destiny launched.......
Oh My God.
Are you serious? This place is a disaster. Swing the ban hammer and mentor shove people with prejudice PLEASE. Even OFFTOPIC is getting ransacked by Destiny LFG RAID shit posting. Its retarded! Community Destiny Gaming Help is all a giant Cluster ----. Ive spoken with other community members. And they made some great points leading up to this disaster. The forums needs a makeover . Please Bungie Gods FIX THIS STUFF!!!! PLEAAASSSEEEEE
Just bring back dark mode. Why the hell isnt it an option? please just give it back.
#Gaming needs to be about #Gaming. Not LFG LFG LFG "THIS IS A DESTINY SITE RAWR GTFO" No . ITS BUNGIE.NET and its being destroyed. New blood is Exactly what this place needed. But make it plain where they are supposed to post nonsense. Not every Column is about Destiny!!!!!!!
Same thing goes for #Help. This is a place your supposed to go for help with technical or functional issues. Not "HELP ME BEAT THORN AHHH etc etc"
#OFFTOPIC. Its the Flood. The Hive. Whatever. Its where the randomness and regulars go. even with all the jackasses there. Its still a fun place.
#COMMUNITY - This was a place for community events to be discussed. To discuss issues, solutions, morale, all kinds of stuff as a group of people that wanted to do things together. Again. NOT LOOKIN 4 GROUP!!! PM ME XxMoronxX
GROUPS
Please get rid of this stupid PM Spam. I Locked the groups i was an Admin in. Dont send me SPAM on here. This is supposed to be my haven. Make this an option at the least. The concept is great in theory. I get it. The mass group PM's and the PM notification for someone trying to join groups. But It Is ANNOYING. ( the group wall being a PM is growing on me though.... )
[b]I hope this actually gets read. And not buried. I love what this company has created. I wish i had been a part of it sooner. But i feel that i belong here. This is my internet home. The place i go to talk about Everything. Destiny or not. Ive made friendships here that i think ill have for the rest of my life.I love Destiny. I love the Forums. But its unbearable at this time. . You cant drive me away. Im here for keeps. But...... Please take notice of us. Im not the only one.

TL:DR - too bad go read.

Good read. Good post. I had to laugh. ( no disrespect ) My only problem with this game ( at beta ) was the non social, non communication. I asked " how do you find friends? " and " how do you LFG?" The answer was always " use the forums!" or " that's what the app is for! " Now it seems everybody is in the forums ( in the wrong # ) looking for groups. The irony. They need a LFG wall or board in the game. It would be so easy to log on. Walk up to it. Post what you want or need. Be specific. Every player on line on your system could read it and join you. It would work. If Bungie could do it, it would end the LFG landslide. Good hunting.
