My thoughts regarding "Go Fast" update and current SOTG
For context, I am a Defender Titan main and have been for years. I play Destiny solely on PS4. It is the play style that fits my skill set best and I have the most fun. So I logged on for the first time last night since the patch dropped and frankly the first time in a while. While I plan to give the patch some more attention this weekend I wanted to share my observations thus far.
1) The "go fast" implemented for titan skating is negligible at best. This is not titan skating and should not be billed as such. It feels like the only noticeable movement changes were to the warlock surf and the dawnblade super. Please bring back proper skating on console.
2) The TTK of primary weapons is much too slow and in-air accuracy is severely lacking. The camera shake and how your guns respond upon hitting the ground feels jarring as well.
3) Grouped up teams that swarm the enemy are still the end all be all of most matches. Primary weapons don't kill fast enough reliably to perform proper flanks. For the record I thought Clever Dragon (at it's best) was what primary weapons should be balanced around for optimal TTK and ease of use.
4) Way too much power ammo on the field for colony/rockets. My preference would be the D1 weapon system where we can have a better balance of what is on the field. This also forces people to choose play styles as they won't have primary weapons that cover all engagement distances which I see as a benefit in D1.
5) Please bring back machine guns and put them in the heavy slot alongside rockets, swords, grenade launchers. Thunderlord was my baby and I would love to bob and weave through the rockets to go on my kill sprees.
6) Please make the ward of dawn good again. I miss the blessings of light plays in the crucible. I miss the weapons of light plays in the crucible. I miss the armor of light in the crucible. I miss the bubble actually being a safe place that wouldn't be immediately deleted by the enemy from primary gun fire.
7) Connections to who I we match with are laughable. This a P2P game. I should not be matched against people from around the globe when I am in the Midwest. There have to be some people actually playing in my area during prime time. I understand I am towards the top of the skill rankings overall, but a good connection is a bare minimum for a good experience.
8) Thank you for fixing the sentinel super block bug that existed. Didn't see it in the patch notes at all, but it appears to be fixed.
Sorry for rambling thoughts and sorry they aren't the most fleshed out, but I wanted to share my experience so far. I am looking forward to what the team can bring with the next DLC. Really hope there are improvements to what I've listed above as well as the progression system.
