Passive aggressive inappropriate tone from Deej and other Bungie employees

Ive been noticing an increase in the amount of disrespect from bungie employees on community forums. Just look at todays weekly update and the extremely snarky and sarcastic comments from Deej such as "omg he only has 1600 weapon parts left we need to do something" and "we hold the right to do anything with the game economy we want." Does anyone else think snarky comments like this are very unprofessional? Like Bungie you act like your some sort of hero for fixing a problem that YOU created. Here is a comment from another post that explains my thoughts perfectly, all credit goes to user Wahrnye "Just another joke of a weekly update that makes it easier to not look back on this game going forward. Announcing the weapon parts change - Fine, but that's a fix to a problem THEY created. And when addressing the fact that THEY created this problem, DeeJ wraps it up in unnecessary snark about being curators of THEIR living world. Hubris to the highest degree; it's almost as if they're saying how dare we question their choices? Let me say this next part slowly so the apologists can understand: [i][u]Etheric Light and Wormspore uses should have been in the game since September's launch, not something coming soon by December.[/u][/i] They knew Etheric Light was a thing that many people had plenty of and they also introduced Wormspore (apparently) without any regard for what to do with it outside a few weapon upgrades. IIt's going to take them almost 3 months to finally make these things meaningful? These are all issues they created by poor planning or bad oversight, not something they should be praised for fixing AFTER the fact. The rest of the entire update was about the same tired PVP bullshit as almost every other weekly update. No news on new content, no commenting on the terrible loot system - especially in regards to raid drops (I love doing the raid and getting a fourth duplicate item at 302 light... ) - or the fact that Nightfalls, Strikes, and Court of Oryx ceases being rewarding once you reach 300 light or more. I've seen this playbook before. Between this and Activision spouting off their easily manipulated "registered user" numbers (aka 'investor math'), they've pretty much already decided they're going to pander to the base players who believe Bungie can never, ever, do any wrong. Nothing will change going forward. Bungie and Activision are living in their own echo chamber - as evidenced by the fact that they spend more time conversing with the "community" on Bungie-friendly outlets like Reddit and Twitter..." EDIT: A lot of you seem to think im just looking for something to be offended by cuz im a "no balls toxic loser" Its more im just fed up with the bullshit direction this game is taking like timegating exotics that i already payed for to extend gameplay time and patching things like weapon parts for no -blam!-ing reason Perhaps the most irritating thing is the bungie fanboys and dickriders who will stop at nothing to defend everything the devs do to this game and every word that comes out of that douchebag known as Deej's mouth. Go ahead meet me with ninja justice for stating the obvious about your shit company and bottomfeeder fanboys EDIT2 It seems the common defense for Deejs tone is "oh bungie has to go through so much shit and complaining on the forums, people are meanies" You people cant seriously believe its ok for a company to retaliate in this fashion. Oh no a game developer has to see negative feedback about the game they made wahh wahh prayers for bungie" All of you are saying "can the entitled/offended generation go away", if you ask me the people defending bungie with this mindset are the "offended generation." Some of you say, "The customer is always right bullshit has to stop." Anyone who utters this is a complete moron and has either no concept of business ethics or is 15 years old and thinks they are being righteous and hip. Go ahead, start a business and whenever a customer has a problem with you or the product, tell them to -blam!- OFF. Yea thats a good business model, you will surely succeed.

  • It's whatever. So what if they fixing problems that they created....this is literally the middle ground between Taken King and a new DLC that might be coming out in the next two months. Was the comment snarky? Yea, a little bit. Should you get butt hurt about it? I don't think so. These guys get bashed everyday by people saying "#Cozmo is a douche blah blah blah" and "#Deej is an idiot who doesn't give a flying f*ck about any of us"....just because he makes one smart remark about weapon parts and then says they're the curators of the world that we play in doesn't mean that you need to get overly butt hurt about it. Every game is going to have some sort of problem with it that people are going to complain about....it's always going to happen until the end of time. They can't immediately tend to every single complaint at every single minute of the day.

    • One person points the obvious and everyone shames him. However, in this case when you are having trouble with finding weapon parts and are told this statement. It will effect you. Bungie has made the game very awesome, I love it, hence my and other people who ACTUALLY love the game point the problems out.

      We paid for the game, so don't we deserve the best? It only takes [b]1 line of code[/b] to give us 10x weapon parts so the feast may begin. MY BODY IS READY. Have some heart, it's just a game. Nobody likes your shitty grind-fest economy and it's making your ratings go down. One of the reasons vanilla Destiny only got a 7/10 was because it was too grindy. People don't buy games to grind. They buy games to shoot their friends.

    • You are so salty. You are literally clutching at straws. Do you realise that it's because of sodium filled whiners like you that the weekly update has a touch of aggression to it?

              • Why is it that it takes 30 weapon parts to upgrade a gun but when u dismantle u get 4-5? After upgrading my new trials scout rifle and red death I have no weapons parts left Also I didn't like how they commented that he he had 1600 weapons parts it was kind of a slap in the face. He must use the same guns since the start of ttk?

                What do you expect when you have a forum full of self entitled brats treating Bungie and each other the way they do? Personally, I don't know how they keep their cool sometimes with all the crap I read on these forums.

                • I agree. It's not that I'm a baby. Or that I'm butthurt. It's just blatant disrespect coming from someone who's supposed to be a community manager. No manager in my workplace would talk like that to me and I'm in construction. He should've had more respect especially since he's in the community spotlight and a manager.

                  • I never comment on this forum but this is a bit tiring. I get on here constantly and listen to everyone talk how they hate Destiny, they're quitting Destiny, and many other negative remark about Destiny. Is it the best game? No. But I'm thankful that this team works so hard trying to give us what we want and in constant communication with the gaming community. The majority of people on here sound like spoiled brats. Bungie delivered you a game and don't owe you anything else yet the continue talking with the community and updating their game. I just find it sad so many people will think negatively no matter what Bungie tries to do.

                      Destiny - at times it feels like yr on a Cruise Liner visiting exotic destinations, except: 🗿 You never see the Captain or the crew 🔮 Sometimes you arrive in places like Antarctica when you expected to be in Tahiti 🆘 Jumping ship mid-Atlantic is an option, but you know you'll miss yr buddies and all the bingo prizes 💸 Eventually duty free purchases of booze become a thing of the past and you have to feed your addictive habits by buying alcohol on board (at three times the cost) It's like a social experiment, trying to accommodate numerous changes without first playing out key scenarios. p.s. Hands up if you think Deej's comments/tone are 50% better than a year ago?

                    • Lol all you whiners talking about "disrespect". 90% of the shit posted on these forums is disrespectful. Either thrown at Bungie or another member asking for advice or help, or just in general, most of it is childish and disrespectful garbage. Suck it up, have a sense of humour and take it for what it is....a game, nothing more. When you donkeys get into the real world you're gonna have a rough time, you think someones going to give two fat f&cks that your vault is empty of weapon parts or that you deserve a raise because you put in a little overtime?? Negative ghost rider, get a clue and wake up. You're the problem with society these days.
