First of all having played years of mmorpg mainly City of Heroes "Veteran from
Beta till close over 8 years of fun"... I applaud Bungie for reacting as fast as they do to minor bugs.
Suggestions/Change Ideas
[u][b]Glimmer[/b][/u]
-Glimmer as it stands doesn't have much use and the cap is very small in comparison to what stuff actually costs. I dont see any negative in raising the cap ten full unless there is some type of market coming.
-Give us more usage for glimmer and they dont have to be major uses, maybe some minor aesthetic things i.e. Weapon skins, more shaders, toon appearance shop "hairstyles non stock creator make em end game unlocks", sparrow skins, body auras "flames, electricity, oil leaks, etc, unlockable/changeable emotes including but not limited to dances, celebrations, flips/acrobatics, [spoiler]and maybe interactive ones like acceptable invitation for hugs or combo dancing or a 10 second duel RNGesus chooses the winner[/spoiler].
[b][u]Tower[/u][/b]
-The tower overall feels a bit boring and put of the way to trade in bounties. Im a big fan of a nuetral zone where everyone can meet up however it just doesn't very social. I would like to see bigger servers especially tower side just to make it easier to link up with people negating an opt in voice chat. I know that requires total server overhaul to an extent but 50 people to me seems a reasonable number thats not overwhelming over crowding and still keeps lag down.
-Until we get a raid matchmaking and even after we do what about a permanent area in the tower in which is labeled with like a banner that says raid party or something where we can stand and easily gather people based on what their outfitted for and based on your own requirements/views for who you feel should be doing the raid with you. "This will still allow the "elites" to feel empowered to bring a better team or at least one their comfortable with especially for hard mode" plus no matter what the game matchmaking, will always screw you over one day or another
-The vault is to small as it is i could care less about weapons and gear because you really dont need every piece at all times, however for the size of the miscellaneous mainly being shaders emblems And ascendant i think this should be increase by at least a double because if have filled mine with one of almost all shaders and a few emblems and quite frankly i love changing colors and do not to be RNGesused on if i have to delete a shader and hope for it again. Or maybe going back to glimmer allow us to buy more slots in increments of like 4-5 for glimmer.
[b][u]Miscellaneous[/u][/b]
-Numbers Numbers Numbers:
I cant tell you how annoying it is to be in a party about to do the night fall and say let me just quick finish this patrol bounty so i can get the xp and upgrade this weapon... Complete it and nope still a hair off. We should beable to see numerical values for everything when highlighted over including ###/#### exp untill next upgrade/mote of light -Experience bars are just way to vague .. Or the numerical value of agility and how +2 from a weapon falls in equivalent to what you have... Numbers will deffinetly make me feel as i am creating my own destiny and adjusting to what numbers i think are best.
-Please tell me there is something coming up for my hadronic essence and weapon parts of which i have 1500 approximately of each. Idc if i get 1 coin/mote for every 500 or something but as of right now my "little light" might start choking on the dust its collecting
-I know its been said but gotta say it myself bigger parties for all missions not just the raids. I see the complications being that enemies get tougher the more players i. Yor party and after so many even a basic minion would be hard to kill with one clip... But why not instead after 3 players spawn enemies per group. You could spawn the Gus in exponential variables i just wanna play with my friends :)
-We know its coming but we need more gear, weapons, missions.
-Here's one i havnt seen yet but what about a very expensive maybe 25-30 coins or motes but an option to purchase perks/perk slots or swap perks on your weapons. So if i get a weapon with +agility on a sniper which doesn't make much sense in the scheme of things i could eventually buy to swap it and make it chance to replenish missed rounds. Now these perks can be of varying prices based on effectiveness and strength. Maybe allow us to buy an additional perk slot maybe having to sacrifice last damage slot or making it an expensive slot purchase and then u have to purchase the perk as well. Some will argue this spoils the point of exotics but exotics are in some cases no better then any legendary and are only better on the eyes and look cool. So maybe on exotics we get to keep that last damage slot and get the extra perk with no damage sacrifice. Which still makes them better , yet not OP, but not just an aesthetic piece.
-Raid drops.... Sensitive topic
I like the rule of RNG because it keeps everyone from truly playing the same character however fully giving destiny's overlord RNGesus http://imgur.com/RcrQNB1Full power of the RNG Gods might be too much ... How about a designated drop per chest and boss that guarenteed a weapon however its random or a piece of gear at aetheon. Yet it will be a random piece, this will still allow RNG to possibly get the same piece twice but you know what thats life. Maybe there could be a chance to get a bonus piece at every chest/boss like 5% but for those who run bothe modes every week would be guarenteed two pieces or more a week of raid gear/weapons.
[b][u]Edit-[/u][/b]:
Breakdown system.... As i level i want to break down my previous gear which is fine until you get to breaking down your upgraded legendary gear you used until you could get your raid gear. You spent 18 shards to upgrade it and break it down for 2-3 shards? I understand taking a loss on your investment but it should not be a 90% loss. You should get more like 50-75% back.
-Enjoy
I will edit and update this as i think of and remember other ideas i might have or people may throw up that arnt ridiculous or impossible
[spoiler]Ps bungie, God mode for just myself would be nice ;-) [/spoiler]
