I am posting now from what I read after the recent update. Lots of people throwing ideas out to create new content, I thought I could throw in a few for "Why not."
A lot of people throw out ideas that don't realize they require ungodly amounts of coding to create, so I've created a list of (what should be) "simple" and "not simple" modifications that would bring lots of PVE and PVP fun and content. As there is no way for me to read all of the past posts I'm avoiding the obvious ones like Light cycle racing, but still expecting a few repeats and complaints about balancing issues.
Simple
1. Hard mode lvl 28+ patrol maps. Everything base level 28 and up. Hard enough to need a 6 man team to do patrols, and 12-18 to do world events. (Increased drop and rep rates for everything; Glimmer, Rep, Upgrade materials, etc)
2. Swap out missions: Swap one enemy for another. I.e. Cabal for Vex enemy combatants on a strike or story to give a "New control" feel to an old grind.
3. Reverse Strike missions. Start at the end and fight your way out. (New map directions feel like new maps.)
4. Mobs drop collection materials. (Are these things only important to Guardians?)
5. Patrol map PVP missions 12 V 12 (Similar to Defiance)
6. Trade in or sell large stacks of unused upgrade material. (Just broke 500 Sapphire Wire, Increase exotic requirements?)
7. Achievement for completing all story missions on max difficulty. (Monthly reward?)
8. Nightfall Story missions
9. Matchmaking everything.
Not Simple
1. GIVE US DESTINY FORGE!!!
"You want content? Here: you do it (throws community Forge)"
Clan based forge zones. Designate dozens of existing map locations as clan "Bases" Give us the ability to unlock better map pieces and create our own custom Clan VS Clan maps. Asteroid, Ship, building, Planetary, etc. start locations as a base for a clan Base. Destructible blockades with armor and hp values. Must be able to get from spawn to spawn as proof the map is acceptable.
2. Call in support. Low level player requesting help from random higher level as a mission or bounty for a high level player.
3. Random Raid level events in strikes. For some reason your mission has a crazy boss it it; go around it or call in 3 more Guardians to help out.
4. Remote Air strike abilities from your ship or Class item.
5. Roll a character as another race to level up like the guardians do. I want to be a Vex!
6. 3 guardians Vs 3 player controlled enemy (including AI mobs.) PVP+PVE story missions. Spawn into unseen mobs.
7. Race based control maps. Planetary based 3 way control maps (Planetside inspired)
8. Re-roll single slot weapon/armor ability. (Diablo inspired)
9. Split-screen
Class: I think all classes are broken in a good way. Buff don't Nerf!
(Edited to point out hunter abilities)
1. Instant primary weapon swapping. (Inventory loading times are painful)
2. Hunter perfect stealth after 2 seconds being stationary, only while stationary.
3. Hunter (Yes like in the video) 2 grenade drop Blink ability.
4. Hunter Slide-blink. Cross hair based mid-slide-blink with cool-down and double range. (Edited to Slide Blink: Dreaming Sky)
5. 1 way fire Titan shields.
6. Walking Titan Tank: Max front armor and recovery with minimal agility and speed, armor lock instead of melee. (Not a special ability)
7. Player abilities effect Mission/Raid items. (i.e. Titan bubble abilities effecting Relic Bubbles)
8. Personal Shields. Permanent (Phalanx ), or temporary (Knight)
9. Two use Nova bomb abilities with "Golden gun style" timer.
10. Warlock style mission item.
11. Engineer / Turret building Warlock class. (Move a gun into a turret slot in your inventory)
12. Warlock push melee works on missiles and mob mortars.
13. Charge up, or beam shield-healing gun.
Thank you-
Bumps please?

Not that Bungie should telegraph their entire plan with how they're going to upgrade and improve Destiny going forward, but even the faintest murmur of them doing something along these lines would go a long way in keeping people on board with the whole thing. Let everyone grind on the game as is for a while and then inject a hurricane of fresh air with suped-up, 6-person patrols, new customizations, etc. Sounds too good to be true.

You have a ton of mats because you're 15 lmao.
-
YAAAAAASSSSSS!!
-
A lot of great ideas that would be easy to introduce and wouldn't take a ton of work to do.
-
Nice. Prefer the simple ideas, but a lot if good stuff here.
-
Bump Great ideas
-
Lots of good ideas in here, other things wouldn't really fit. Creating a character from an enemy race would require the ability to kill guardians, and something like this seems to move too far towards a WoW style MMO.

Pre ordering games on your mothers pocket money doesn't make you a BETA tester son.

Edited by Dangly: 10/28/2014 1:48:19 AM@DeeJ you responded to a troll forum! Respond to this!! This will infinitely increase Destiny's life, particularly the forge mode. Please!

http://www.drexity.com/cgi-sys/topic/5-destiny-clan-recruitment/ It would do me great service if you joined up on my clan. Also, send me an invite on Xbox One to do the Vault of glass, my GT is the same as it is here. pupdawg34

Great ideas

blam! yes!

Edited by Twohothardware: 10/28/2014 12:34:06 AMA Lvl 28 Patrol that supports 6 man Fireteams and has larger scale bounties and huge public events that last at least 10 minutes would make a great improvement to the game. There has to be something to do in the down time between the Weekly Strike, Nightfall, and Raid and a huge portion of the community does not like Destiny's PvP so that isn't it. 6 man Patrol needs to happen. Figure it out Bungie.
-
Great ideas! Have a bump. Hope this stays at the top for a while.
-
Bump. Love this
-
Unique gear please. More attributes, more perks. Nothing is unique in this game including your guardian
-
Bump This is great :)
-
i would love to see clan bases such as a captured fallen drop-ship or mother-ship. and we are now responsibly for them and get bounties to strike other houses.
-
I approve of a lot of these.
-
How does one become a beta game tester?

Edited by Drewcifer: 10/27/2014 11:59:53 PMMostly amazing ideas!!! Add being able to control our player and vault inventory via computer through Bungie.net or the Destiny Companion App!!!
-
Some cool ideas! Can we please get a Favorite/lock option for inventory items. I dismantled a raid gun :-(
-
Bump!
