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 could tell what Deej was like after seeing a few of his comments on this forum. He has no respect for anyone.

      Well all know no game is gonna kill destiny. It's going to end up killing itself. It's business practices with dlc and content, creating its own problems just to fix them(weapon parts) and act like they're doing the community a favor, fan base who doesn't stand up for its own well being and accepts anything(over priced Micro transactions), advertising content only to take it out of expansions and use it as bait for the next dlc(347 dynasty), advertising content and to only hide them behind time gates instead of interesting quests(sleeper) which kills any deep community discussions and interactions, terrible and lazy quest design(get x amount of kills, sure, now wait a week, :l really, REALLY), and the companies clear lack of transparency with the community. Bungie will make its money now, sure. But with each over priced dlc, more and people begin to understand just where this is going. Destiny is it's own worst enemy. So much potential but to have to pay every single step of the way is a tad ridiculous.

      • Uh? You're a dumb piece of shit. I like and support a game therefor I'm a blind fan boy or a dick rider? That's trash. You don't like where it's going or what they're doing? Fine. Just leave. Don't spew toxic shit everywhere. Don't make a I'm leaving this game post. Just disappear. They literally won't even notice your punk ass is gone. Seriously, so tired of all you dumb piece of shit whiners.

        • It's not really their fault because it's always the community replying back to simple changes with rude remarks. They try to fix things but when they do posts like these get posted up constantly complaining about simple things. You wanted nerfs or some buffs and they try to fix but then people just get greedier and want more. Don't blame the people from bungie because it's our fault that they are reacting this way. Plus what's the harm of a sarcastic joke like this in the weekly update??? Every be makes joke like these but when a certain person makes a joke like that everyone blows up and just gets pissed off. It's annoying and I can see why bungie employees are tired of replying to all this bullshit.

              I think that if you strip back what you have said to the bare bones, Bungie needs to be professional at all levels, from their Software Development, Games Design through Customer Relations to their Corporate Strategies. We only see what they do in their games through updates and their posts on social media, so if we as stakeholder in Destiny perceive that there is a shortfall it is essential for us to raise that in a constructive manner for everyone's benefit. It is then their responsibility to engage, fix Destiny and brief the community. The community, that's us need to improve our behaviours. Bungie need to 'git gud' as I see posted so often. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Together then we will see the community grow and Destiny flourish!!!

            • I mean what do you expect them to say? They told us about economy changes. They fixed the whole weapons part thing yet you guys are still complaining about it HAHA WTF If they were to release some info about future DLC and then say they changed their mind about something you guys would then attack them for changing it. You guys really have been attacking them from day one non stop. No matter what you will be upset and them fixing weapon parts yet you still complaining about it is proof

                You do realize some of us had over 12000 hadrionic essence and 10000 weapon parts at one time right? In reality as a year one player anything under 2000 weapons parts is next to nothing. He is a grown man and a lot of men act that way. I mean he makes under $50k a year so I don't take anything he posts serious. Sorry.

                • You know with as much time as you put into this post you could've found yourself a new boyfriend. "I hate this game! it's developers and their snarky tone hurt my feelings! I'll never know what sex feels like and its Bungie's fault!!!! WAHHHHHH!!" Just another douchebag taking up forum space. Again.

                  • This one seemed to have the most information about the game in a while. I'm glad it wasn't posted in the NeoGaff forums where most of the information from HQ seems to come from. I've felt bad for DeeJ ever since the VoG team undercut him by implementing the random TP in Atheon's throne room on normal. The community obviously did not want it. Then when it was put in it was a buggy disaster! Then it seemed like no one could give him a straight answer about what he could and could not say. So he came off as a big lair with pants on fire. It always seemed that the higher ups were drunk at the wheel and used DeeJ as a sacrificial goat. We got mad at him for the udder tripe they told him to say while never letting the guy come to us with a victory on our behalf.

                    Grow a pair you whiny bitch and try to not be offended by everything. Edit: gotta love this community. Bring on the hate, bitches. Here's a little hint for you: Learn to not take everything so seriously. Just once go ahead and read a post by Bungie without looking for the smallest bits that MIGHT barely come across as insulting, but only if you really want it to be, and take it the way it was meant to be - a joke. You'll thank me, you'll live a much better life.

                    • Destiny Forum Community has the sense of humor of an SS Camp Guard. You all will get offended over anything that isn't grovelling at your feet with gifts of Free Raid Gear and the Fate of All Fools for offending your precious sensibilities. Stop being so brattish, its getting to be painful.

                      • He didn't say anything wrong, I didn't mind the style of writing. Ultimately it's their game and they can do whatever they want with it, taking advice from the community is their decision. And how were you offended by the weapon parts joke, it's one of things that's just like "whatever"... doesn't really matter too much For the rest tl:dr

                      • Time gating exotics that you already paid for? Haha, this is hilarious, your whole post just reads like a self entitled whinge. You didn't pay for the exotics, you paid to play the game and this is the game you paid to play. Did you get every exotic last year? Maybe, but a lot of people didn't. Did they moan? No. Stupid post is stupid.
