ALL HAIL CHRISTOPHER BARRETT, SAVIOUR OF DESTINY 2
*AND HIS TEAM
So everyone remember Chris? That emo dude with nice shoes from House of Wolves and then Rise of Iron. Well, basically, in my opinion, he was one of the developers that started to make D1 a better game. House of Wolves was (again in my opinion) the start of the turning point for the fundamental changes D1 would go through, for the better. Sir Barrett blesses us once again. All hail the king.
New systems and rewards to give our most engaged players additional, optional pursuits.
Better incentives for players who complete challenging Prestige activities.
Better rewards and replay value for strikes, adventures, and Lost Sectors.
Private matches for the competitive community (we are targeting early 2018).
Crucible tuning like adjusted Supremacy scoring and better spawning rules.
Better incentives for completing Crucible matches (and penalties for quitting competitive games).
Continued improvements to Iron Banner and Faction Rallies, including uniqueness of rewards.
Changes to make the mod economy more interesting and impactful.
Ongoing improvements to Exotics, including adjustments to reduce instances of duplication.
New ways to spend surplus currency and materials (looking at you Legendary Shards).
An emote interface that allows players to equip Salty, Spicy Ramen, Six Shooter, and Flip Out all at the same time.
There's more we're working on. We'll talk again soon.

Well, asides from feeling kind of happy. Im also skeptical. I may sound negative but im trying to stick with facts. Facts such as Mr Barrets response is nothing more than response. Nothing more, nothing less. There are words such as "improvement", for Bungie, D2 is an improvement from D1 so honestly, its just another "we are listeting" answer. Luke was also praised for the taken king and look what the end product of D2 ended being. Now will everyone start making posts about Barret and previuos DLCs and how is he going to save D2? I guess so. And i hope so. Again, i may sound negative , and i think i am. But at the same time i just think us players should learn what hype and trusting blindly on Bungie, its developers, marketting, etc did to us and how it ended right now with D2. I think the fact they the comunity had to pick up mr Barret from out of knowwhere is actually a bad message. Its like they know the project team messed up so bad that no one wants to really here about Luke, Cozmo and Deej who doesnt even play the game as we all know. Anyway, let hope that sometime ( because early 2018 its like the most mediocre response ever ) enough worthy changes become implemented. So for many players its like an indefinite hiatus till we "may" get a decent product. PS: please dont bother with replies complaning about me complaning about people complaining. Its getting irrational lately with everyone getting salty because others opinions. love
