I understand how you feel about this topic, but I personally disagree with some of the things you've said here. The first thing I wanted to touch up on was the enemy attacking the Tower. The Tower is suppose to be humanity's last safe city, the only city still protected by the Traveler. If it was up to everyone to defend the Tower while the Fallen or someone was attacking it, how would that work? The entire game is full of live servers 24/7. When the time comes where there isn't enough people online or there is no one at the Tower, that's bye bye Tower and no more video game. Also (unfortunately ), destiny isn't a cross-console game. so the amount of work to have to put in to monitoring attacks on the Tower and all the other stuff is even more work that would probably take the game back off the market for awhile. Yeah it would seem fun and everything, but that sounds a lot like a Lord of the Rings concept which isn't destiny. Destiny also isn't like Halo, or it isn't suppose to be. Halo is all campaign and multiplayer. Destiny is different because the campaign and patrols are dynamic with their enemies and public events. The destiny that is open to everyone at the moment IS the tip of the iceberg. The DLC's are DLC's because they couldn't be released without holding the game back again. I think this game is great for what it is right now and I can't wait for the expansions. I'm in no way trying to attack you or anything for the post, or talk down to your idea's. I just think you're asking too much from the game to be something it isn't and that isn't Bungie's fault. It's just how it is. You can't be too harsh on them. Thank you for your time.

    It's funny you think in-game NPCs would put an end to a real-world video game. I mean, I agree with you in that I don't think everyone would want the city to be under attack all the time, but it's still funny. I imagine it would be an event you can choose to participate in, then you'd simply lose XP if you lost the event. It wouldn't ACTUALLY put an end to the video game. Lmao.

  • Well yes and no. A lot of what he suggested has already been implemented in Firefall. It can be done, maybe not cheaply, but it is possible. I agree that the Crucible may not be the best place to have attacks, but some server wide events where we fight off an attacking horde would be nice. Heck, even when there is a public event, I am only aware of it if I am nearby. I often find myself on a different part of a planet from my wife when her screen lights up with a public even and nothing happens on mine. How am I supposed to participate in these if I don't even have warning that they occur? Playing with other people randomly to fight off some nasty fallen horde have been some of my favorite moments, but they are so rare, and always the same. I would love more of this, and the feeling that when I succeed I get more than stars. I want to feel like I actually helped preserve humanity, if only for a bit longer.

  • A map of the area might solve that problem:)
