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.

  • They are poking fun at the community, not being unprofessional. This isn't a board room meeting where we need a professional update that has no humor what so ever. They listened to the community and announced they were fixing a problem, while having a bit of fun doing it. The amount of abuse Bungie has recieved on these forums is astronomical, of course they are more active on a forum which offers constructive criticism as opposed to the bile I see posted on these forums daily.

      • I'm not offended by it but it did come off a bit dickish. But the whole thing about them fixing problems they created is a valid point

      • you gotta be joking right? I found the post pretty funny. I guess people have trouble adjusting for context clues and tone of writing to figure out the meaning. Reading is a lost art these days. If it doesn't start with lmao I'm sure the majority wouldn't understand it anyway. Unnecessary page long rant about a joke you took way to personally. I'm gonna take a guess that you complained about weapon parts but you spent the entire previous dlc re rolling every damn weapon you got over and over and over and over again until you didn't have anymore weapon parts.

      • After being forcefed this community with their 1st world priblems of not wanting to farm and just have things handed to them I can see someone being a wee bit irritated being that he is human and all.

        • Man all the end game content is just an endless loop. There's no moving forward. Court of oryx, the raids, the nightfall, Trials, prison of Elders - they've never really moved you forward. They just made you feel like you had accomplished the biggest feat in the game at that time, then you went back to playing pvp or doing strikes just starting that loop all over again. You know they did experiments on gamers for 3 years before making this game. They wanted to find a way to create a false sense of accomplishment while keeping the consumer hungry and coming back for more. They would take the results of the first test, make some changes and run more tests. Thus, RNG was born. This is all just one "10 year plan" to keep millions of people hooked and spending money. It's actually quite genius, business wise, but it doesn't feel good to know that YOU are part of the herd. If you could look at a chart of my playtime somehow, you will see that there has been a steady decrease in the amount of time I put in. Why can't I just stop playing? Cause it's like quitting cigarettes, you have to ease into it. Why do you think everything is the way it is? The updates that say a bunch of shit without saying anything, the "end game" that's not really end game content but actually the game itself, the time gated Exotics, the advertised Exotics that are no where to be found, intentionally ignoring the pvp lag issues, banning people for the wrong reasons, and doing the best they can to turn every minute you spend playing destiny into an hour. Fallout 4, I'm ready

          • With all the entitled little brats they have to hear from every single day, it's amazing those guys still bother to give you the time of day. I'm surprised it's taken them this long to begin losing their patience.

                • A) it's called having a sense of humor. Clearly you belong to Generation V. The ones who are offended by everything and anything. B) Bungie reserve the right to do whatever they want to Destiny. You don't own the game, you license a copy of it from them. They are the owners of the game and it's contents.

                    • Well it is their game they do decide what is fair or not and not the players ever no matter how much you want to say or claim or think otherwise ever. You did not ever pay for access to specific content ever silly git. You paid for access to content period. not when or how or why. You did not buy rights to have it when YOU wanted it...
