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 agree with this 100%. He shouldn't have said what he said in that way. He is representing bungie and if that's how they are going to talk to us, their fans/customers, then I'm done with bungie. Sorry there better games coming out I don't need to play destiny.

  • All faith has been lost in Bungie to fix their game. I'm just playing until I find something better at this point. I have no desire to interact with this company anymore. Through play tests or online.

    • I'm a pvp guy. I appreciate all the PVP updates. PVE has a ton of content that is waaaay more rewarding. You're crying about getting a 302 item? Ive been 298 for weeks. I can actually get a higher level through trials now.

      • Don't like? Don't pay. Don't play. If you are not willing to do those 2 things - then buyer beware. Bungie doesn't owe us jack. We choose to play in their sandbox. We trade our dollars. Want to communicate you aren't happy? Pick another sandbox.

        • Talks about wanting to be respected as a consumer and post a insult riddled post on the forums. Makes sense. And yes if I owned a company and had a customer like you saying ignorant childish insults I would tell them to -blam!- off. Aside from that you are correct that these things such as weapon parts and uses for wormspore should have been in since the beginning. Although at the beginning of Y2 we weren't as short on weapon parts or bogged down with wormspore.

            • I found it to be funny. I haven't laughed while reading the weekly updates, but that one provided. A lot of people seem to take those very seriously. I'm assuming only the hardcore players read it each and every week.

              • "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, " Bungie never made anyone use there weapon parts for anything bisides weapons. If you only used them for upgrade ing weapons you liked then you would have plenty of them. No one forced anyone to use them for faction rep, therefore bungie didn't make this problem the player base did.

                • Hey its just a game. If you care this much you should probly take a step back, And go to a magical place called the outdoors. Hell maybe go get a job and be a contributing member to society. And as for the customer isn't always right, I've worked multiple customer service jobs, majority of the time when they want to be right it's them lying about a price or them trying to return a stolen item and wanting money. So yeah customer shouldn't always be right.

                  • If you want anyone to take you seriously you have to keep your post calm and collected. I felt like some of your quotes were taken out of context just a bit but you need to omit all the anger in your post, it doesn't sound intelligent. I'm 14 and I don't agree with the things that bungee does. Using an age to describe a certain amount of maturity doesn't work.

                    • You are completely correct, when you get charged as much as we do for destiny plus DLC which is very expensive for what it is you deserve a certain level of quality and consistency which we simply haven't had Since launch things don't ever seem to go right in destiny, there is always a problem, they lack foresight and common sense they just seem to dive into something without much thought.

                    • Agreed, especially with the parts referring to Bungie creating these problems themselves. They messed up so many things with this DLC then try to make out it's our fault and they are going out of their way to resolve it for us out of the kindness of their hearts!?! Also agree with the Nightfalls and Court of Oryx being pointless now. With only the raid to do on a weekly basis now, and Trials if you are into PvP, this game is severely lacking and completely boring. Shame too because it is definitely one of the greatest games ever made, just seems to be going down hill every time they drop a DLC. I can't see it getting any better either. :(

                    • I don't like it either but that's how he talks/writes. If you don't like it, don't read it or listen to it. Not a recent phenomenon, he had that tone in the Twitch TTK live streams too. Don't forget, this is a video game and we know the types of people it brings together. Whether he's a little condescending at times or sounds like Martha Stewart, I believe that he genuinely cares and likes his job. At the same time they are in a for-profit business, so they have to balance all their goals, priorities, user experience and investor expectations. I still enjoy the game, but yeah, I know what you're saying and I wouldn't be best friends with him.
