Destiny could learn from The Division

Having read the insightful threads from respectable members of this community on how The Division is [i]the[/i] Destiny-killer, aswell as witnessing the incredibly popular social-utopia that is the Division forum, I really think Bungie should take a page or two out of Ubisoft's book. By making a few changes based on winning aspects of The Division, I firmly believe Destiny could once again be a great game. [b]Change 1: Enemies[/b] - Scrap every enemy and instead create a single race of dregs dressed in an assorted variety of cotton / polyester sweatshirts, scarves and hats. Buff enemy armor by 800%. Name them all Alex. [b]Change 2: Bosses[/b] - Scrap all boss fight mechanics. Scrap every existing boss in lieu of one of the aforementioned enemies with a higher amount of HP and damage output. Pick a noun at random, set as boss name. [b]Change 3: PVP[/b] - Scrap the existing PVP completely, and instead allow guardians to kill eachother in a specific area of Patrol mode. Players must complete a Warsat event to keep any collected loot. Have deaths reduce light level. [b]Change 4: Locations[/b] - Scrap the moon, venus, mars, saturn, and reef. Scrap patrol matchmaking. [b]Change 5: Endgame[/b] - Scrap all endgame content in lieu of a max light level difficulty for 5 story missions. [b]Change 6: Mobility[/b] - Scrap sparrows, pikes, heavy pikes and interceptors. Scrap jumping. Scrap crouching. Buff jogging. Add shadestep to every class. [b]Change 7: Gear[/b] - Hand out legendaries and exotics freely, but with a 99% chance of having a useless roll. [i]Sweet! A Gjallarhorn! ..Aw man, Shank burn..[/i] [b]Change 8: Other[/b] - Make the game third-person. Nerf strange coin drop rate. Scrap existing supers. Players must queue to interact with vendors. These suggestions are the result of hours of tireless research.

        Lol yh, let's have a sequel where we once again can run the same 13 strikes about a 1000+ times for 1.5 year and get blue engrams. Then to increase difficulty, run those same 13 strikes in Nightfall for another 500+ times for some strange coins. And finally, we can run King's Fall a bazillion times for shards. Bonus: Daily lag-events, where we spice up the Crucible by increasing lag, so PvP becomes more challenging.

          These are horrible. I guess the Dividiots still want to ruin the game. Get the hell out of here.

          • So tired of the double standard set by this community. If destiny were to put even half (which is maybe five perks tops) of the divisions perks (like [i]intense*[/i]) on a legendary the forums would simply burn than imagine that you had to have 300 strength and 250 int and 285 discipline to use this perk *[b]13%[/b] chance for the [b]1st[/b] bullet to ignite someome... for less than the damage of 1 bullet.

            • Comparison between the two is honestly silly. They're totally different games.

              • Haha. Good post. Made me chuckle. Funny how everyone is comparing the two constantly. They are two very different games. Division is fun but in its own way, but I don't think it will hold anyone's attention like Destiny has.

                • Yeah they could learn how to implement real match making for any activity. Love destiny but not having the option to just join a group at any time almost two years in is pretty sad for a game that pushes the play with a group of guardians and explore the different worlds together. Both games are far from perfect but the division is a nice diversion from the monotony destiny has become with the complete lack of new content these past several months.

                  • Just because they both have loot based system and pvp don't make Destiny and the division the same game. The division is sooooo much different from Destiny. And no this entire post just no. Only thing "bungie" can learn is how to communicate with their fans and how to set out a roadmap of content instead of being so vague. If the lore of Destiny on the grimore cards was to be inserted into the game with cutscenes and what not then... Kiss division goodbye on the story part. Everyone who had read the cards know for a fact Destiny has an amazing story. Bungie needs to piece it together and insert it into the game. Division did not kill Destiny it never will. I wish someone would right the usernames of all these people saying Destiny is shit and Destiny got killed by division and watch to see those same names on the recruitment forum asking for help or a fireteam when the new content comes out. This is my open so don't come with the salt

                    • Destiny does things good that The Division does bad. The Division does things good that Destiny does bad. Both could learn from each other.

                    • The Division added another nail to Destiny's coffin. Best game released since last year IMO. But then again Destiny doesn't need other games to do this, it's been nailing it's own coffin.since Year 2. Even so, I'm looking forward to April 12 Destiny's new content.

                      On another note. Here is a few things The Division can learn from Destiny 1) Nerf all weapons if one specific weapon is OP...bw fusion rifles OP plz nerf 2) Lie about changes to matchmaking. 3) Lock exotics to be released at a later date. 4) Recycle Old content and sell it as "New Stuff" 5) Remove dedicated servers(Who needs them.....Am I right!) 6) Give shitty rewards for completing a challenging mission. 7) Just keep giving me blue level stuff...to hell with legendary and exotics....they are overrated anyways. 8) Let me stay a forever 29 .....don't let me reach max level ....I mean who wants that. 9) Ignore glitches. Update gear icons. 10) Keep OP guns rampant in PvP for countless months before balancing them. Edit: added number 9 courtesy [i]RoseScythe[/i]

                      • Division and destiny have different gameplay style and a different story setting. They need not learn anything from each other. I understand your post is mocking division but really its all opiniative.

                          Even though it's meant to be funny, both games don't really need to learn from each other. They are different, especially in their end game content/stuff you do after being a lvl30/lvl40.

                          • I'm enjoying the Division right now, but this is funny stuff. I especially enjoyed "buff jogging". That is something you do a lot of.

                          • Yep, Destiny is smashing it right now . Probably why none of my 315 psn friends ( all added via Destiny) are still playing the game. They all gave up, myself included. However, I did rack up 2250+ hrs on it and spent £158 whilst doing so. Bungivision done alright out of me. Good to see there are still hardcore Desticles out there willing to play the same old, re-skinned, same old , repetitive, same old , re-skinned version of same old, blah, blah, blah. To all the true hardcore Desticles still running like -blam!- on that Hamster wheel.....I salute you..
