An Extensive List of Ideas That Could Benefit Destiny

This is a re-post of an existing thread and I am creating it to help it gain more recognition. The original topic and poll is in #feedback, so I'll to provide a link to that as well. To vote in the poll go to the original post here: http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/71446392/0/0 Just a list of suggestions that a friend (astrological123) and I came up with and/or saw on the forums. Note that we don't realistically expect for Bungie to see or consider these ideas, and these are merely our views on things that they could do to improve Destiny in the future. Also note that we absolutely love what this game is right now and we are not trying to say that this game is terrible by providing such a long list. I'll go into more detail if anything needs clarification. 1. Sparrow Races 2. More Sparrows 3. More Sparrow Stats (to make the sparrow races more enjoyable and more like a racing game) 4. More Class Items 5. Higher Character Customization 6. Unique Caves 7. Secret Bosses 8. Vanity Items for in the Tower 9. More Equippable Exotics 10. Player-designed items (Contests for designs every month?) 11. More Factions 12. Different Beginning Stories Varying by Race 13. Paying for Dance Lessons (Makes for more dances/getting to choose your dances) 14. More Easter-Eggs 15. Flying Ships Through Space (Optional, like what they did with Kingdom Hearts....but please, no gummi ships and trippy levels) 16. Offline Play 17. Player-Made Maps (Contests for designs every month?) 18. More NPCs 19. Clan Hangouts (Purchasable with HUGE amounts of glimmer.) 20. Alternating Public Events (Maybe three different public events per area?) 21. More Unique Ships 22. Metroid & Guardians of the Galaxy themed armour if at all possible (Highly doubt this will even be considered.) 23. Samus's Ship (Again, I don't expect this to be considered, but it'd still be awesome.) 24. More Random Vendors Like Xur 25. A Tower Library to Replace Grimoire Cards 26. Higher Level Cap (I'm talking crazy high. Like in the thousands.) 27. Higher Glimmer Cap (Again, much, much higher.) 28. Purchasable (with Glimmer, of course) Player Homes/Furniture 29. More Armour 30. More Weapons 31. Unique Areas to Explore Outside of Missions/Strikes/Raids 32. Higher Tier Items (Several higher tiers) 33. Some Sort of Crafting System 34. More Materials for Crafting System 35. Faction Stories (Why did you get rid of those?) 36. No More Grimoire Cards (Trust me, this enrages most of the community. No more.) 37. Hot Buttons for Perishables 38. No Flying Straight to Missions (This makes the game feel too linear and guided. Let us make our way to the locations on our own.) 39. Interactive Load Screen (Astro said it, I don't understand, either.) 40. Splitscreen 41. Sidequests (TONS of these) 42. Exotic Bounties have their own section in the inventory 43. Player More involved in story 44. Radio (Like in Fallout or SR4) 45. Fighting Venus's Dragons! (And the Moon's Birds! Okay, I get that those are probably just satellites.) 46. Dead Ghosts Give Stat Boosts/Points, etc. (We need an incentive besides a trophy/achievement) 47. Message Board in the Tower for Forums (Let us view the forums in-game!) 48. Monthly Added Story Missions + New Area for those missions (Areas could simply be blocked off until FREE release of mission) 49. New Raid Every Two Months (This is do-able, right?) 50. See K/D rate while inspecting players (Players can change who can see their K/D) 51. Compensation Items for Maintenance/Server Problems (Example: One Strange Coin for Each hour of inaccessibility) 52. More Areas on Earth Besides Russia (Japan, anyone?) 53. Traveler creates new "mini-planets" for some story-related reason (It could be included in it's waking process? One new planet every four months?) 54. Option to Join Exo Stranger's Side (It seems like we're on opposing sides, anyway.) 55. More Info on the Exo Stranger 56. Actual Survival Mode (Send forth the Hive) 57. Main Story Altering Events (take up to a month or two) (everyone's involved and helps affect the game. I figure this one will need clarification.) 58. 1v1 PvP/Private PvP sessions (challenge other players or teams from other clans) 59. Cross-Platform (Come on, we know you can do this) 60. "Skyrim-Like" Leveling System (Skill Trees and everything. Including Prestige) 61. Dual Wielding Skill (There's nothing I like more) 62. SWORDS! 63. Better Items Purchasable with Marks After Faction Ranks of 3 (We need more incentive) 64. Higher Mark Cap 65. Customize Armour Shaders (purchase and choose the three colours) 66. Assign Armour Shaders to separate pieces of armour. (Ex: Green gloves with red helm) 67. A Hair Stylist/Barber/whatever you would call someone who cosmetically tampers with an Exo's appearance 68. Ability to make purchases/receive bounties and mail in the companion app's Tower map. 69. More storage space in the vault 70. Can carry a larger amount if shaders and ships in inventory 71. Explore (at least some of) the Last City! 72. More (non-preorder exclusive) Ghost cases! 73. Trading items of equal rarity. (This would solve the problems of charitable people handing over exotics to new players and people getting exotics that they can't use for their class) 74. Class items give stat boosts and are upgradable 75. Race-exclusive factions 76. Races have different stats and/or abilities 77. Choose sitting position (female vs. male seems a little sexist) And that's pretty much all I could think up. Feel free to suggest things for me to add to the list, everyone! Sorry if my random caps bothered you, I had something going and then it got weird. Poll Question: Do you mainly agree with this list? Ideas from the replies: 1. bringDaRawkus suggested: players can mark themselves as looking for a fireteam, and a short description of what they're looking to do. 2. xxxWarxPigxxx suggested: ghost voice packs. 3. BriGuy suggested: custom load out sets of armour, weapons, and subclass settings (like custom armour sets from Monster Hunter!) 4. Soki suggested: shared faction reputation between characters or ability to purchase items for other classes from the factions. 5. souf92xx suggested: The ability to customize the way your weapon looks by using shaders or combining it with materials or plans 6. Firesenz suggested: Stat Boosts and effects on the appearance of armour when wearing full sets of matching armour. 7. ORPHNCRIPPLR suggested: Add a random element to strikes, meaning that enemies spawn in different places and vary in quantity so that every strike run feels a bit more unique. 8. Bum309 suggested: Some side quests help flesh out the story of the worlds of Destiny and add lore. 9. nycekillz516 suggested: Option to move radar to other parts of the screen (Sometimes on certain consoles notifications pop up and block the radar) 10. Gytanzo suggested: Pets 11. cedeqa suggested: Have Factions fight each other over owning land in patrols and such 12. cedeqa suggested: Materials show on radar 13. cedeqa suggested: Ability to pay to have ascendant materials removed from items so they can be used for other items/purposes 14. cedeqa suggested: Factions have communicated political goals, history / back story and beliefs so one would align themselves to what the faction is about. 15. cedeqa suggested: Teleporting to popular local locations without having to go into orbit. 16. xStingingBEEx suggested: Ability to wield a hand cannon while riding a sparrow. 17. souf92xx suggested: Different armour sets that drop from the Raid (everyone who wants to be lvl 30 has to wear the same armour as every other lvl 30 at the moment, we need variety and individuality!) 18. profilewon suggested: unique drops (materials that could be used for crafting) from different small enemies (like in any MMO out there, making our farming mean something more) and large enemies alike. 19. NOTAGhero heard from another guy and suggested: Different HUDs for helmets/ customizable HUD modules that you can equip, for things like warning signs, grenade arch, etc. 20. aem suggested: More varied armour styles (ex: shorter/longer warlock robe and hunter cape styles) so that everyone looks a bit more unique 21. Tangledvandalist suggested: Space invaders mini-game during load screens. 22. jasssen suggested: Exo Stranger faction 23. litrosemore suggested: extra tab in menu to view online clan members (this way we don't have to add all of them to our friends list) 24. timmeh999 suggested: Tournaments between clans (with monthly or yearly prizes) 25. Gromit858 suggested: Larger battles between the alien races (ex: multiple Fallen Walkers battling with hordes of Hive) 26. Totsy30 suggested: "HUD editors" (examples are: ability to track player's stats, such as kills, and ability to view every boss and the loot and drop rates of that loot that can come from that boss) (See their original reply for clarity) 27. SevXcore suggested: Faction-themed/exclusive sparrows 28. StifMeister (and a few others, I believe) suggested: Shooting ranges in the Tower 29. Nox Magnus suggested: Taco Tuesday, a day which a special visitor arrives at the Tower and throws a taco fiesta, complete with 1v1 PvP brawls in the middle of the Tower which others can watch and dance parties. Don't pretend like this idea isn't absolutely amazing. 30. SevXcore suggested: Blink is compatible with your Sparrow/Sparrow can be upgraded to use Blink (Sparrow can teleport short distances in the direction it is facing 31. Agito Suggested: Numbered Health Indicator Look to the comments for the other part of the list.

  • Here is an idea for a better way to improve how you can select your weapon. Instead of going into your inventory to change your weapon that can be a problem if you are in the middle of a fight you could have three or two gear loadout slots for each of your weapon  (Primary / Special / Heavy) that does not take away from your inventory space. So you can setup weapons you want to take on the raid, mission ect and change them using the D-pad, so short press the D-pad to change (Primary / Special / Heavy) weapons with up, left or right and keep point, wave or dance in the same places but use a long press on the D-pad to activate them.  You can have the weapon icons appear as you press them then disappear after a couple of seconds
