Destiny Raids to cost extra

Statefarm · May 06, 2015, 03:44:33 PM

So the cut raid won't be added later.

While the prison of elders looks good, it lacks depth or the replayability promised. At least from watching it, the game mode looks polished but is no substitute for a raid. Bungie is also tight lipped on rewards. The new game mode forces you down to 3 men only, 5 waves, and no checkpoints or rewards until the end. Bosses revealed so far are bigger versions of previous enemies with a few added attacks, nothing like raid encounters, more like what strike bosses should have been.

Whelp, gg. Honestly thought this DLC would change things. I'll try it out but I'm not sure this game has a future, especially now that season passes are over and Bungie must win over lost fans for the September Comet Expansion.

Are any of you a bit depressed by this? Like holy fuck. You know, with some game companies they degrade over time. They wear down with each new installment and they lose their magic touch. It's no fun to see it happen.

But from one single game, to the next, Bungie went from making games that were fun to play, had a decent community, and as a company, they interacted with fans and had a welcoming community site.

In one, single game, all of it was wiped and blown outta the water.

And now we're left with this. I mean fucking really?

If you were approached by somebody, not even say, five years ago, and were told that Bungie, and Bungie.Net would go to complete and utter shit as a community and a developer, would you believe them?

God dammit that shit sucks.

For the part about them becoming a shit developer I would believe that. Halo 3 has a shitty campaign and Reach is just shit. After Halo 2 they just lost focus on Halo besides ODST. Whatever passion they had with CE died with Halo 2 when MS had them butcher it.

For the part about their site Bungie really never did care for their game community. They only cared for the current game fanbase. There were no forums for ONI or Marathon, just Halo ones. For being a Bungie site it was more of a Halo site than a developers site.

Raids are actually brilliant, and if they expand upon them I could've seen Destiny going places. The free stuff coming out along side HoW actually fixes and expands the game a great deal for being free, which surprised me.

When they excluded the raid, I figured they understood their potential and wanted to create quality material (instead of Crota's Failure 2.0). In hindsight, that was stupid of me. Should've figured they'd sneak more paid content out of it and justify it by saying it'll improve the content in the end.

It's just another nail on the coffin now. I want my money's worth and the gameplay is decent so I'll probably enjoy HoW (I'm not gonna lie, I will play it)...but there is no way in hell I'm buying comet without proof they are gonna change.

Gatortag · May 06, 2015, 09:35:20 PM

No one is surprised by this right? They said HoW would not have a raid quite a long time ago. And of course, any new content released isn't going to be free. I try not to defend Destiny. But I will say this. The game was a disappointment. I don't buy the whole cut content BS. And that Bungie and other developers are evil entities out to get your money. There is no disc locked content, other than empty areas, that weren't even finished. You can even see the locked off areas have changed a lot after a patch we downloaded. And another patch we'll download this month. Now, is everything they're offering in these DLCs worth the price? Not really. And to suggest, that content that is coming out later this year, and even next year, is content that's already finished right now, is laughable. The game was a disappointment. For whatever reason, they released it with a poor story, and not much content. Even though we have no idea, if the story was much different than it is now. Bungie has further brought down their reputation with the release of Destiny. Hopefully, in the future they can redeem themselves.

theyve signed their death warrant in my eyes.

Strike 1: Reach
Strike 2: Killing b.old and instituting the abomination that is b.next
Strike 3: Destiny

they do not receive the benefit of a doubt from me anymore. i will never give them another dime. you shouldnt either.

BaconShelf · May 07, 2015, 12:01:48 PM

Even with all the DLC, I still think Destiny is only just worth £50. That's with all the DLC. Only just.

Changing those areas or not they're still areas in the game that are locked to you and you have to pay in order to unlock them. Some of the so called DLC for the game takes place in those locked out areas that are already on the disc.

Turkey · May 07, 2015, 02:31:55 PM

I'm not sure how people are even still playing the game. It's really fun, but the content just isn't there to sustain the 100+ hours that current players must have gone through.

Josh has been here for a while.

You really can't blame him for thinking he's a new user or whatever. Josh has been here for awhile but he only has 26 posts. So because of his very low activity it's not hard to understand someone thinking he's a new user.
