Event specific exotics.
Allow choice of game in PvP.
Higher level strikes.
Bigger exotic puzzle quests.
Make xur have the ability to reroll once.
Put snipers back in energy slot.
Increase reload speed of handcannons a little bit to make them more viable on console.
Have more fun exotics like tractor Cannon but make them good.
Make the fire subclasses better for warlock and Titan.
Make shaders reusable.
Horde mode.

Destiny and damn near every multiplayer game in general needs to have a perfect balance between competitiveness and casualness. If you look at all the older games that are still relevant today, most of them have an ESports competitive element added to it.

You couldn’t put snipers in the energy slot in this game because of how ammo works. Putting any one shot kill weapon there would completely frick up the game even worse.

The game was structured completely different. You can’t put any one shot kill weapon in the second slot in D2 without reverting the whole system back to what it was in D1

Eh, there isn't many one shot snipers in this game. If there are, they are poor handlers and any rusher or high Cal rounds could mess them up. They just aren't viable now.

Have you done much PvP with a sniper? Sniper + knucklehead radar is effective. You kind of have to play like a bitch but it works. People don’t respect the lanes like they did in D1 because the threat just isn’t there very often. You can get some pretty easy picks. I don’t dislike the way they play at all, but the ammo situation sucks.

I've hardly ever seen anybody run a sniper. I've only been killed maybe 5 times with one.

You hardly ever see them because the guaranteed reward when you get heavy isn’t there like it is with a pair of rockets or a good fusion rifle. You get a pile of sniper ammo when you pull it though and I’ve gotten 3 kills with one pull before. If you run a hunter try it with knucklehead radar. It works sometimes, you just can’t do it the same way you did in D1.

I played some crucible and strikes yesterday. I’m enjoying it. I want that nightfall strike specific sniper. It does seem a little fast but so far it’s fun.

The speed addition is nice.

The guns/loot are still hot garbage. THe dual primary system still sucks too.

Perhaps after the next two big updates we'll be close to having a Destiny 1 clone.

There is no true sprint speed increase. It’s been tested and verified.

The only noticeable speed increase is in strafing.

This update didn’t address any real issues. As of now, this game is done.

I'm tempted to redownload this just for crucible. Miss Halo and this is the closest thing.


One thing I'd like to see in the future (if this game has a future): give me another way to level up other characters without having to run through your shitty story again. MMO style, you can go through the main story with any appropriately leveled class, but once that's done and you want to level something else, there's PLENTY to do without having to endure the campaign again.
