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'm getting tired of people like this, and Angry Joe is one of these people for example. You love the game and maybe don't agree with the insults or uneducated rants of some people and they lose their shit and call you a fanboy.

  • I thought Deej kinda sounded like a smug asshole in the weekly update also. Glad I wasn't the only one.

    • Bungie has no foresight when it comes to this game. We have to tell them everything to put into this game. Whether it's finding uses for materials that anyone with half a brain can see people are going to stack up the materials as much as possible. Or if it's something as simple as being able to assign emotes to use more than one at a time. There's literally no reason that a large group of people working on this game as professionals should have to be told obvious things that need to be put in the game. This is also why they make this game one single expansion at a time because they have no idea how to make an economy that makes sense going forward

    • People are so quick to call someone out for bitching on the forum and everyone seems to forget that this dialogue is what helps things to change with destiny. Doesn't anyone remember when our vaults all filled up and everyone decided to bitch then. Not to mention the countless other things which have been adressed because the forums blew up. These resulted in much needed changes to the game which derived from the community itself. Anyone who comments on this saying that OP is whining is clearly missing the point that Bungie's community IS influenced by these posts. It's not only our right, but it is our responsibility as a community to keep bungie honest when we can.

            I agree totally. This community is full of fan boys that'll fill your thread with insults but there's plenty of us who agree, and many won't post a response. Good post.

            • So you want them to be professional on this forum? Have you been reading these posts? How many of the "I quit Destiny", "I hate Bungie" posts are professional? What about the OP if fgt comments? Im surprised they take the time to post those updates at all. He's making fun of all you whining kids, which is fine. If your offended dont play his game.

              • I don't blame them for the weapons parts shortage. they allowed us to use them for rerolling guns, not their fault countless players stopped playin Destiny in favor of a slot machine. they allowed us to turn them in for rep, again, not their fault countless players decided to go for the easy route. many of the problems that I've heard ppl whine about for the past year have been caused by the very ppl who whine. they allowed you to burn thru them, you decided to. is it The Miller Brewing Company's fault if you're an alcoholic?

                OP I notice you are suffering the bile of the brown nosin fanboys that abound this forum, they're like a plague of shit sniffing rats they'll jump on any post that's even a tiny bit negative toward Bungie, I'm sure Bungie actually pays them!!! I agree some of the comments made by da management are out of order and show what they think about us cashcows, yes even you fanboys, they probrably despise you creepy stalkers most for having no balls !! I complain about the lag in the Crucible and never get any contact from Bungie despite the lag being very bad most of the time, well Bungie your game IS broken and you are steering this ship without a rudder ,that is very aparent by all the constant changes topped off by the bitchy remarks and P2P is not the way forward , if I was an owner I would sack quite a few of you !!!! So here's my tip, shut the fcuk up and get your fingers out and create some original content and purchase some dedicated servers for PvP and relaunch this game !!!

              • I love this game and I'm not offended easily, but I also hate the way Deej talks sometimes. I don't care too much about weapon parts since I don't play much, but his 1000 weapon parts comment was pretty stupid.

                  To be fair, Deej has always come off as somewhat of a smug prick. He has grown on me though and I find him to be more funny than a prick nowdays. Luke has always been a goofball and shouldnt be taken seriously. He's just joking around. That said, I can understand how the "their game" sentence rubbed people the wrong way because it stuck out to me too. They need to realize that Jerusalem is the people in it. Now, if you want to find passive agressive, arrogant pricks you should take a look at some of the top Destiny streamers, people this community fund. I will never understand how those people are allowed to successfully do what they are doing.
