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.

  • I know when I read it I thought to myself how the F does he have 1500 weapon parts? I don't even have 50 on any one character! It was definitely a stand out statement. So much so I had to read it twice. I also agree that raid weapons suck! Doesn't even compare to the desire to obtain any of the raid weapons of the past. The only reason for obtaining them is to infuse them into something else. I miss playing for a chance to get a Ghorn or the fate bringer. Those were worth fighting for.

  • I actually agree with you... I don't think people realize he is actually mocking the community and not making a joke. Of course his boss probably has over 1600 weapons parts because they have a codes to give themselves what ever they want. Like I said he was mocking the community.

      Don't worry, us adults who have actually lived in the world agree with you and know you don't behave that way to customers if you want to keep them. Fallout 4 here I come. No Mans Sky has a June release date finally, I'll never play Destiny again when I have FIVE BILLION DIFFERENT PLANETS to discover and explore.

      • Let him say what he wants everyone with weapon parts shortages are morons. I've never had a problem with them and I infused 3 weapons in how 80+ times each. You all bash him enough for being incompetent anyway. Just shut up already.

      • I actually laughed, it is funny jimmy. Not to mention they said they are handling it. Next thing you know people are going to be bitching about being able to buy them. Remove stick from anus and try to remember it is a video game, not to be taken all that seriously.

        • This is how it's always been. They notice a problem, wait a week or two to say something g about it in a weekly update and then fix it in 2-3 months. The only time this doesn't apply is when it's game breaking like Infinite arrows or something beneficial like 300 black spindle

        • Have any of you played since your one !!!. How many seen this over and over with Bungie. I have -100 love for Bungie they are the worst company ever . They pretend they did this weapon drop stuff for us. Okay ???? So if it's not ment to keep us on whY in the -blam!- does the update come out after call of duty black ops 3 drops... The reason Bungie lost at least 30% to cod3 and will loss 20-30% more when fallout 4 comes out . And when the division comes out they can pack a bag and roll out as old news ...not counting on how many people they lost before with there lies , rude, jack ASS were gods self.......dee j a joke

        • I just think it's stupid to need weapons parts to infuse. You are already using/burning a weapon . Just make weap parts required for upgrading perks

          • Your sensitivity levels are at an 11 right now. You obviously need a break from Destiny and the forum. Take a break, and if things don't progress then don't come back. Otherwise wait for the next DLC. Seriously, you're complaining about how the weekly posts are worded now, think about that, sit back and take a break. It's a video game, if you are not having fun anymore then it's time to move on.

          • I can agree. And I'm glad someone caught it. Also, the added 'my boss' about the back handed insult. Such a pathetic dick move. The customer can totally be an asshole, no doubt, but don't treat them like one.

            • The logic in nerfing the weapons parts made no sense whatsoever. Why on earth does his boss have 1600 parts? You can upgrade weapons, infuse weapons and you can donate a ton to a faction for rep. Hoarding them makes literally no sense whatsoever. You know what I do when I hit 500 armour parts and i have nothing to infuse or upgrade? Faction rep. Granted it's paltry but it is still a sink for them as reputation gains are a problem. (different argument altogether) If he has 1600 parts plus has all 3 faction exotics and every weapon and armour upgraded then he's not the benchmark you should be using to gauge the rest of the community. Seriously, we shouldn't even be having this conversation.

              • He was being sarcastic, there are many people I play with having no problems with weapon parts or any other type of material shortage bc they were saving up the entire amount of time since then the house of wolves dlc was released. As far as they reserve the right to change the economy at anytime they chose I'm pretty sure he was saying that to remind everyone they are making the changes to help us out since once again everyone hooped up on the forums and cried about any type of minimal grinding they have been forced to take part in. Just like everything else in this game if you guys don't like something then you jump on the forum every single day and shout to the skies about how unfair your destiny life has become. If it was up to you guys the whole game would be flipped upside down from week to week and nothing would ever be accomplished but just as most other people in this world, nothing is ever good enough and you wouldn't realize a great thing if it was slapping you in the face and you guys will never realize the great things that you have in your life until they are gone. Fools. After all though, being a fool is you and everyone else's right to be.
