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.

  • How Ubisoft can take some pointers from Bungie: Change 1: Players- Just nerf the hell out of them. Anything that gives them an advantage, just make it lesser or take it away. End game weapons who needs those. Just give them enemy re-skins of existing weapons with random stat rolls. Take a dump all over year one players, and remove anything that is considered fun because you want them to "play the game the way it was meant to be played. Change 2: Content-Cut out 2/3rds of it and sell it as DLC. When the third comes around time gate most of the content for no reason other than not wanting others to progress. Also make it so all former content is completely worthless.Re-use old areas as much as possible, if you can't figure out a good mission scheme just reverse which way the players go, surely that will fool them. Change 3: Weapon/class/ability Balance- Who needs balance just throw that shit out the window and nerf something when the community cries too much. When there is one weapon completely breaking the game keep it around for 6 months, but when there seems to be some similarity to balance nerf another weapon. Change 4: RNG- Instead of making it better, make it worse by implementing a new system of new values that doubles the grind for no reason. Then make it so the system where you can put more powerful gear into a weapon for only a small percentage of the original. Change 5: Matchmaking- Introduce a new system that is supposed to make it better, but instead makes it much worse. Change 6: PVE- Ignore it and anyone that enjoys it for several months and only acknowledge/fix the tiniest of issues. Change 7: PVP- Introduce gametypes with broken rule sets that make it so the objective of the game is worthless and it is easier to just let other capture it and then defuse it. Make maps with terrible designs, but are extremely pretty. Change 8: Hype- Overhype everything, make it seem like it is the best thing ever even if will ultimately aggravate and cause your players to leave. I am sure that if Ubisoft takes some cues from Bungie they can make a game that will be just as great as Destiny. PS: I love Destiny, but you people act like it is a 10/10 game of the year and everyone should be sucking Bungie's dick over it and any game compared to it is instantly shit. Stop being hypocritical assholes.
