People like you really make me angry. You are entitled to your opinion but DO NOT tell me how mmo work. i have an absolute outstanding weapon collection, in which i put so much effort and time. i wanted to grow stronger and stronger. They only reason bungie does not allow us to further upgrade our gear is because they are too lazy and not creative enough to come up with weapons that are good enough to be used next or instead of the old ones. take a look at the prison of elders weapons!!! no freakin wonder that no one uses them!!! if people want to use new weapons - go right ahead. but i want to have A CHOICE you know? why the -blam!- would i spend weeks getting the best possible gear only to hear that all that was in vain. This really pisses me off. its a -blam!-ing joke. Tell me: Why would i ever upgrade and collect again? And please dont answer: because thats how mmos work. DO NOT compare destiny with WOW. these games are totally different!! and please dont answer either: because its fun. i will throw up!!! i won't allow people to tell me how to have fun with the game. I HAVE FUN COLLECTING AND UPGRADING gear! Imagine that.

  • Wow lol. If you're getting this upset over a video game please reevaluate some real life things. Please learn to read my god... First of all I'm simply doing this comparison because there are A LOT of people (excluding myself) who think Destiny is a MMO. While I tend to disagree Destiny does have quite a few mmo features. Always online play, social tower where players intersect with each other, daily quests in the form of bounties, having a level cap, upgrading gear, raids, dungeons (strikes), pvp playlists and more. The only real things that [b]DO NOT[/b] make Destiny an MMO is lack of actually questing, no trade system or auction house and the amount of players in an instance at a time; example - the tower only holds up to 16 players per tower instance. If you increase that too say 100 then it's getting closer. However current mmos can hold up to thousands of players in 1 instance all at the same time. You also didn't read very well when I said "you playing the game makes it fun for you and if you don't enjoy what your playing whats the point", never did I say anything about trying to tell you how to play the game or tell you how to have fun. In fact I'm saying quite the opposite, that you need to do things in destiny that are fun to [b]YOU[/b] in order to keep enjoying the game. You like to collect armor and weapons? Great then by all means run the raids, strikes, do pvp, whatever it is as long as you have fun. Hey guess what? There is more shit to collect in TTK if you didn't realize. Also collectors tend to store thief collected items not play with them. I have a bunch of shit I collected over the year I've been playing and I had fun collecting it. Now there will be other things to collect, no one is forcing you to delete all your currently collected stuff. Keep them for crucible, unless you suck at crucible then delete them I guess. Why are you so mad? Seriously? It's quite sad tbh.

    Well this is my first online computer game. usually i dont spend this much time on any game but i thought : since you are generally a very thorough and structured person why not amass and collect the best possible arsenal one could have? And trust me i did just that. it also gave me a great deal of satisfaction there is no denying that. When i learned today that my arsenal will eventually become obsolete it just hit me and i felt and still feel like the time i spent was for nothing. it really doesnt matter if this scenario had to be expected. i didn't expect it. the text i wrote was indeed out of anger and i already calmed down. i didn't mean to insult you or anything. if i did i apologize. still my appproach to the game will be different from now on since i now know that upgrading and leveling gear is not worth it. it just isn't. But i suppose thats my problem. to be honest i am a little jealous of you that the changes don't seem to affect you at all. Thats a good thing. and i have to agree that its definately not worth it to get mad over a computer game. i am mad at myself that i didn't anticipate the upcoming changes. i could have saved myself a lot of time trust me...Take care

  • To paraphrase you, people like you make me frustrated. You say you have a good collection and you enjoy collecting and upgrading? What I want to know is this, what do you know about the new guns/gear? The answer is nothing. What if there is a gun called fatehammer that has the best elements of fatebringer and black hammer? Suddenly your old collection would seem pointless. These new weapons can be collected and upgraded, (which you enjoy.) No-one says you have to get rid of your current collection. What if you COULD still use your year one gear? Then what's the point in having year 2 gear? There isn't any! Where the fun in having all the best stuff all ready? Other people would complain about the lack of content coming out. These games are all about the grind for loot. Games fail without new loot. Another question, what do you play most now, PvP or pve?

  • I'd argue that a large amount of my collection is pointless. I'd also argue that large collections of.....well, just about anything - are pointless. I have stuff like a Stalker BNGL simply because its cool looking to me. I'm leaving Thorn because its boring to use in every game. I rarely use Icebreaker unless I'm weirdly out of ammo synths. I'll still take 'em out plinking - unless the new stuff turns them into ornaments. One thing I liked from games like Skyrim was that I'd collect a ton of stuff I loved that was meaningful to me, and even though I didn't use them I had a place to show them off. That would be nice.

  • Completely agree with your sentiment. Maybe a separate storarge section to keep your favourites. Same as a real world gun collector would. They are still killing machines and have history and stories attached to them. BUT, I woulnt want to go up against an ak47 with a musket! That's all it boils down to, nobody's being forced to dismantle everything, its just that there's better coming along and people are scared of change.

  • True; but its not an unfounded fear. With Dark Below, the old stuff wasn't upgradeable. With HoW, it suddenly was - my prediction at the time (fwiw) was that the ascension was a bit of a placeholder to make up for what did end up being a generally lackluster addition to the armory.

  • It sounds like you've heard every rational argument and fought it with irrationality. Take a break from the game sir or madam, it's not healthy to subject yourself to pointless rage.
