Don't know if anyone feels the same way as me, but this is an opinion not a fact. I feel as if Destiny isn't the MMO it claims to so much to be. I mean yeah, there is a massive world we can all connect through from the Tower, to Crucibles, Story Missions & Patrols.. But there's something off about Destiny that makes it seem fraudulent.
Here are five ways Destiny can improve as an MMO.
1. [b][u]New Voice Channels[/u][/b]
Probably make different voice channels that connect through Fireteam; Team Voice Channels(In Crucible),a Local Voice Channel for players nearby to find fireteams to connect with instead of having to find some on forums or doing spam invites, a Global voice channel for players within' the region to have communication time... Destiny can be alittle to quiet at times... it'd be nice to talk to a couple people while im taking on a solo journey.
2. [b][u]Bigger Tower[/u][/b]
I think I'm not the only one that believes the Tower should be expanded abit... I mean c'mon Bungie, really? The Tower couldn't be bigger than this? Moving the vaults to an actual bank location? Giving the frontier a better and larger look? Putting the Vangaurds at a higher location or something? And the Speaker even higher? Something where a larger mass of people can expand through.. I mean given the lag limits, I think a capacity of 30ish players can make lobbying more interesting. Basically just stretching people out and given them more people to interact with.
3. [b][u]Third Person Shooter for PVE[/u][/b]
I've said this on another post but I'll say it again. It'd be able to shoot up a couple dengs and thralls in third person mode. It'd not only look alot cooler, but may also be alot easier for some other players who are more comfortable with it. Bungie should give us the ability to change our camera modes during PvE between First Person & Third Person mode.... but of course strictly FPS for PVP.
4. [b][u]Freelance Through Orbit[/u][/b]
What would make Destiny MORE like an MMO is forcing players to actually travel to their destination. Using their ships to set a waypoint towards a planet throughout the orbit and give us a better use for ships rather than just its looks. Basically a star-trekish space travel.
5. [b][u]Please, Make Us Use Our SHIPS![/u][/b]
It'd be fun to fit a couple of my friends in my ship and fly around Earth, or Mars..I mean of course this would give our Vehicles no reasoning, but I figured maybe Ships would need Relic Iron, or... a new material created in order to use it on land.. And depending on the rarity, the requirement of material needed should vary. For eg; (Legendary Ships could cost 500+ relic iron to fill it's tank, Rare Ships could cost 250+ relic irons, and Common Ships could cost 100+ Relic Irons)
Again, these are just my opinions, I do not expect these suggestions to be taken into consideration by many, but hopefully it attracts the attention of a Bungie engineer and it comes to conversation. If you have your own inputs on how Destiny can improve as an MMO, Comment below!
