Hey Deej/Cozmo, take notes. This guy has it right.
"I remember a GDC talk by Blizzard’s Rob Pardo where he outlined a concept any MMO designer should be familiar with. “Always balance up,” he said, talking about both World of Warcraft and Diablo 2 (this was a while ago). If you find something in your game that feels overpowered, that’s good. Players will enjoy it. The solution is never to remove that feeling of power, but to power up other things in the game to meet it. When you weaken your most fun tools, you push everything into a mushy middle. Better to explode everything out into weird and new directions by enabling the players.
So if the problem was that players spent an inordinate amount of time with a few overpowered guns, the solution is to give us more overpowered guns to choose from. Or you can make new enemies and game modes that thwart an exotic gun’s special abilities in interesting ways (read: something besides just having a ton of hitpoints). It is, you could say, a balancing act. But it’s one where it’s a lot harder to mess up by enabling players instead of hobbling them."
Here endeth the lesson.

12 RepliesWhile that works in games with relatively high ttk, in destiny when the ttk is about a quarter of a second, ou have to nerf down so people have time to track instead of Instafrag

2 RepliesApparently that guy has never heard of [b]POWER CREEP[/b]. It's not a good thing, this would be horrible for Destiny. Let's make every weapon in PvP as good as Thorn and Last word so we can all die in .3 seconds lmfao!!!

Seriously? Balance everything up to Gjallarhorn and black hammer level? Do you want to be able to just waltz through the entire game with no challenge whatsoever? The last thing we need is for this to become easier....

Nobody is going to go through the high end content and pound their head against the wall for mediocre bland gear that'll get nerfed. Especially me. -blam!- that! You are crazy and dillusional, Spungie.
