Clicked on thread because I saw the word 'Sekiro'. Would never go into a shlooter thread otherwise. Well played, whoever writes the thread titles

It's a really, really fine game...just that the moments you share the world with other people fuck me off enormously. It kills the moment when you're supposed to be somewhat alone on these worlds only to find all manner of folk jumping around. One silly fucker kept on trying to shoot me constantly, which caused me to fuck off to another area. So, I spend these times desperately running away from everyone just to get to the next story mission.

 

I honestly don't get why it would have been so hard for them to make an 'anti-social' area so people like me can mind their own business and just get down to shooting stuff.

 

But those story missions are fucking awesome fun - absolutely the most fun I've had with an FPS for ages. 

 

Which is why I'm so looking forward to Halo coming onto PC.

[Mogster]

The social areas are meant to be social, both for gameplay and lore reasons. You're just one of many Guardians going about your business, outside of the story campaigns where everyone's the most important Guardian who ever lived. Even then though, it still makes sense for you to run into other Guardians in the social areas.

I’m sure it does, but humans don’t act via a script which leads to annoying situations that I’d have preferred not having...however, I kind of understood it was going to be this way when I joined in, so it’s on me and my introvert life I guess!

[Mr Ben]

Finished the Allegiance quest on my Warlock just now (sided with the Vanguard). The lore is pretty decent, and you learn a fair bit about the Drifter, finally. Other than the Allegiance quest and the nine (Xur's bounty) each weekend though, there's only really Gambit Prime and Reckoning this season.

 

Hopefully the next season wont be like this, but then it does have a raid, so there's that at least. Shame it seems to be on the Leviathan again though. Hopefully we get to kill the fat robot frog for good this time.

Somewhat related - does anyone feel like they improved drop rates with the last patch? I've been getting a lot more Curated rolls and Exotics since. Managed to finally get the Gwisn Vest and the Queenbreaker in the space of about a week too.

Yes. I dont' think i had an exotic drop at all in Black Armoury and have had 5 in the last week or so. Of course, that's very defnition of RNG though...

Today, we’re focusing on change. Destiny 2 Update 2.2.1 is on approach, and we have another round of server-side changes coming to Gambit and Gambit Prime Matchmaking to tune your experience.

Nightfalls

Moving forward, we’ll be putting effort into preventing streaks where specific Nightfalls appear multiple weeks in a row or don’t appear at all for months, and we’ll be making sure your experience tackling strikes associated with Seals isn’t feast or famine.
 

Ada-1 Weapon Frames

In Destiny 2 Update 2.2.1, Ada-1 will begin offering all weapon frames each week. While players will still be limited in how many different frames they may acquire per week, we are removing the weekly rotation.

Destiny 2 Update 2.2.1 Preview

Tentatively planned for April 9, Destiny 2 Update 2.2.1 will bring a variety of quality-of-life changes and bug fixes. Below is a short list of topics that we commonly see in the wild. Note, if any issues are found in the final weeks of development, the following may change or be delayed. We’ll be sure to keep you updated on status as we get closer to release.

Dreaming City cosmetics

Drop rates for the Ghost, ship, and Sparrow have been doubled, tripled, or more for their respective activities

Last Wish cosmetics 

Drop rates for the Ghost, ship, and Sparrow have been doubled, tripled, or more for their respective checkpoints

One Thousand Voices

This Exotic will continue to be rare among players, but we’ve tuned the drop weights to give slightly better chances than what are currently available

Increasing drop rates for various Lore Books

Cayde’s Stash

Dreaming City

Tangled Shore

Invitations of the Nine

Currently, players must complete an Invitation of the Nine by Tuesday reset in order to have a new invitation appear on Friday

After Update 2.2.1, players have through Thursday’s reset at 10AM to complete the invitation

Nightfall Power Handicap

In Season of the Drifter, the Five of Swords card was updated to apply score multipliers only after setting a Power handicap of 100+

In Update 2.2.1, we’ll be adding +25 and Max Handicap buttons to help players set their handicaps more efficiently

 

Destiny 2 Update 2.2.1 will also kick off Arc Week. Be sure to check back next week for information on how we’ll be celebrating Arc Energy in Season of the Drifter.

Bit miffed they'll push the update out after the next full curse week, seeing as I only need the ship for Cursebreaker (grats on that @Hexx you lucky bastard lol), but I've waited this long, I can wait a bit longer.

 

Also it looks like @Uncle Mike may get his 1k voices finally if the buff is significant enough.

No Crucible for Destiny 3?

 

The rumor is this:

Destiny 3 is considering dropping PvP and traditional Crucible

They are instead looking at something that works potentially like The Division’s Dark Zone blending PvP and PvE

 

 

[Harsin]

Having one character/load out across PVE and PVP was one of the dumbest decisions they made and it hobbled them throughout the life of Destiny 1. See the ridiculous situation where, for most of its life, shotguns were simultaneously deadly instadeath cannons in PVE and useless water pistols in PVE.

 

Then they carried it forward to Destiny 2.

Not sure what this means to be honest, as Shotguns are great in both pvp and pve currently in D2.

 

If they are thinking of blending pvp and pve, then it will still be a balance issue, and not a lot would change from the way things are now, where nerfs and buffs are usually based on pvp or pve performance of weapons/items/abilities.

 

They'd have to cut pvp completely for it to be a non-issue, and I cant see Bungie doing that myself. They're too obsessed with having the player character have access to both, seemlessly (take pve loadouts into pvp, and vice versa).

[Harsin]

Didn’t they fix shotguns in the end by balancing them differently for oVE and OVO, which would back up my point.

[Mr Ben]

In Destiny 1 maybe, but not in D2.

 

The recent changes to D2 just made them do miles more damage in pve (where they were hardly weak anyway) and slightly reduced their range in pvp (one meter, if that - not really noticeable). They also reduced rapid fire shotgun fire rate by 90% (this is the biggest nerf, though the damage increase makes up for it) because those are used more in pve than any other, which was their justification for the nerf, but that was ridiculous because the trench barrel perk is only on rapid fire shotguns, which is why they are used more than any other shotgun in pve

 

Overall, though, shotguns are more or less in the same place they were before the recent patch, albeit pvpers have to close distance a slight bit more, and in pve you can now use any shotgun and still do good damage, though trench barrel shotties are still top dog.

[Gorf King]

This is just that rumour from a little under under a year(?) ago, recycled. The rumour on reddit that said they were thinking of making PvPvE zones, shortly before the full release of Gambit. There's been nothing more substantial since. What happened was that at the weekend, Fireteam Chat had a live show with, they admitted, nothing much to talk about. Steven from the team was invited to talk about anything at all to fill the space after the patch note dissection ended and said 'hey, there's all these rumours that D3 will have no PvP but will have Darkness Zones instead' and said the rumour came from AnontheNine, who was the guy who made the post on reddit last year.

 

Why Steven decided to blow it up now was that he'd put it together with the fact that two big sandbox leads have left in the past few weeks and decided this beefed it up and it needed a fresh airing, so it became 'all these rumours' rather than just the one. Because Destin Legary had already admitted they had little to talk about that episode he decided to run with it purely speculatively, and was all 'right, this is just a rumour, but let's pretend it's real - what do we think?' and they then speculated on what a D3 without PvP would be like.

 

Then Paul Tassi 'reported' this in the Forbes article linked above without any source other than That Steven off Fireteam Chat, and even went as far to post a correction to his own article saying that the rumour didn't come from AnontheNine on reddit, after first saying it did. But not saying where it had come from, apart from that it didn't come from the place it did in fact come from, a year ago. Then he speculated that this PvPvE zone would be like it is in The Division, for no real reason, because maybe Steven said so when he was bored.

 

Then all this got reported back around the place and showed up in numerous new reddit posts reporting on these new rumours that are in fact just the first one from reddit last year with bits people add on because the internet does that. And now it really is 'all these rumours'. But really it's just people repeating the old one in the absence of anything else much to talk about.

 

I can't see them removing PvP myself. I mean, a big part of me wishes they would. But they'd probably be mad to do that, commercially at least. And that personal hot take carries about as much weight as all the others added together. But the real big news is that DeeJ is also leaving Bungie and going to work as community manager for BioWare, having been headhunted on the basis of his stellar performance on the Osiris stream. Twelve months from now, D3 will be a free-to-play Battle Royale game, we'll get the Full Beanie and Slacks armour set we've all been craving, and Anthem will finally steal the space looter crown with its first paid expansion, Two Tokens And A Blue.

[Uncle Mike]

Paul Tassi and his "articles" should be fired into the Sun/whatever that Cabal ship that was blowing it up was called.

[V3zna]

True or not, the rumour is worth discussing as the Destiny ‘formula’ is probably going to get some sort of revamp for the next game. 

[Gorf King]

It might be true - or might have been when the rumour came out. I get the impression that Bungie change tack a fair bit at critical junctures, and I'm sure they've seriously considered or actually headed down a lot of different directions before changing course. The series is pretty famous for it, and for the late reboot, and I think it's a big part of the reason I've come to accept that Destiny releases will always have something like a 50/50 hit rate for me. With the recent split from Activision I think it's fair to say that whatever comes after the annual pass is going to take a very different form from what we saw in the first four years. I just hope it's not too much like this year five annual pass thing, at least in content, because now we're almost 2/3 through that, the lack of proper new PvE content - just stuff like new strikes and story missions - is really dragging it down for me. The last raid was the exception, and it was excellent, so I'm a bit apprehensive about next releases's raid being set on the Leviathan again.

 

I think in many ways Destiny's been a victim of Bungie's ambition to do everything that's possible in a game. If anything, over the years there's been too much variety. It's tried to be a PvE shooter that appeals to occasional players, as well as hardcore grinders, while at the same time offering ambitious and challenging team-based raids, cater for casual PvP fans, and (in the form of Trials) far more competitive ones. And obviously it's had big puzzle-solving and mystery elements (that ended up dipping so far into obscurity they almost indefinitely stalled an entire release), occasionally it's been a racing game, and increasingly we've seen it embrace wave-attack modes. And of course, it's now got PvPvE entrenched in it already in the form of the two Gambit modes. So although it wouldn't surprise me to see them expand that concept (they certainly seem keen on it), I'm hoping they don't as it brings the issue of 'balance' even more to the fore than it is in pure PvE/PvP modes that are based on the same weapons and abilities. And that has always, always been a problem for the game. It'd become an even bigger one if they tied PvP more closely to PvE.

 

But this is Bungie, so fuck knows. Tassi, though, doesn't even know the source of the old rumour he's reporting, which is another thing, and several changes of direction and one split with Activision ago. By now they've probably reimagined the series as a sword-based slash-em-up on horseback. Charge of the Light Brigade, or something.

[Mr Ben]

In relation to this:

 

 

[Gorf King]

My reliable and well-informed sources tell me the latest rumour is that Destiny 3 will only be PvP. And to make up for the loss of assistance from other studios, Bungie are hiring BioWare to develop the investment and loot aspects of the game, and Massive to write its ambitious and engrossing story. Bungie devs will be concentrating solely on the difficult problem of how to replicate the successful formula of Fortnite - the very similar game all its fans abandoned it for - whilst maintaining the complete inability of Warlocks to land anywhere near the spot they were aiming for when they jump off anything, even a small kerb, let alone a moving aeroplane.

 

Destiny 3 will be released one month after Brexit and run at 120Hz on all formats, except for Xbox One, which will be limited to 30, and Xbox One X, which will be limited to 10, due to a secret deal with Sony which actually loses them money and makes them look stupid but Bungie hate Microsoft so very much so why the fuck not.

Arc Week

Quote

This week at Bungie, we’re getting ready for some high voltage.  

A storm is brewing. Next week, we’ll kick off what we’ve been calling Arc Week. Our goal for this happening has been to take the element that makes our sandbox crackle and put it under the microscope. The most noticeable update is that we improved many Arc subclass paths from the time before Forsaken. The week will also feature Arc Singe and Arc Bounties to synergize with your updated abilities. To provide a proving grounds for all this new energy, Mayhem will be available in the Crucible to let you experiment with your enhanced Arc abilities using shockingly short cooldowns. 

 

Arc Week will also feature one of the most powerful Arc weapons ever created, the Thunderlord Exotic Machine Gun. If you weren’t able to complete the quest to obtain Thunderlord last year, you will have from April 9 to April 23 to revisit the Cosmodrome and add it your collection. 

Arc week seems to just be tweaks (some of them pretty significant) to subclasses, and a running arc singe modifier throughout the week along with bounties to go along with it (subclass changes in spoiler below).

Spoiler

Striker Code of the Juggernaut (Bottom Path)

Notes: This path is all about punching enemies to get better at shooting them and shooting enemies to get better at punching them. We want to further incentivize engaging in this loop and make doing so move visible and flashy. Shooting an enemy should make you feel like you are primed to strike with melee. Punching an enemy and releasing your rage will make you feel like a more focused shot.

 Frontal Assault:

Now increases all weapon damage for the duration of the buff

25% against combatants

20% against players

Duration increased from 10 to 16 seconds

Buff timer is now displayed on the HUD

 Knockout:

Melee damage bonus increased from 25% to 60%

Now also triggers once you have dealt 60% damage to a target

Any damage done after 60% will refresh the timer

Still also triggers off shield pop

No longer consumed after 1 melee attack

Duration increased from 3 to 5 seconds

 Arcstrider Way of the Warrior (Top Path)

Notes: This path thrives on striking with precision and timing and is heavily melee focused. To enhance this loop, we are giving it a bit more nuance with a higher potential payout. We want to allow for more room to execute and engage with both the path to success and the benefits once you do succeed.

 Combination Blow

Bonus melee damage can now be stacked 3 times (requires a melee ability kill for each stack)

Buff increases melee damage by 60% per stack in PvE 

Buff increases melee damage by 22.7% per stack in PvP

For comparison, this ability used to be 1 stack and increased melee damage by 50%

Kills with this ability now heal 40 health in addition to starting health regen 

 Deadly Reach:

Increased buff duration from 6 to 8 seconds 

Buff is no longer consumed by a melee hit

 Arcstrider Way of the Wind (Bottom Path)

Notes: This path is about quick movement and thriving under pressure. We want to increase your ability to survive while at low health and enhance your elusiveness so you can be more confident when in danger. This way, you don't just get a bonus when you’re injured, you have more control over what state you are in, and you can make more risk/reward choices.

 Disorienting Blow:

Increased the disorient distance by 50%

Increased duration of disorient on players from 1.5 to 2 seconds

 Focused Breathing:

Increased dodge recharge bonus while sprinting by 100%

 Combat Meditation:

Increased bonus grenade and melee regeneration while bloodied by 25%

 Lightning Reflexes:

Increased damage resistance while dodging from 25% to 40% in PvP

Increased damage resistance while dodging from 63% to 70% In PvE

 Stormcaller Stormtrance Super (Top and Bottom Path)

Damage scales up to 150% over 5 seconds of continuous use of the attack

Updated FX and audio to support this functionality

 Stormcaller Attunement of Conduction (Top Path)

Notes: This path focuses prominently on chain lightning, but we also want to better sell the fantasy of being a god of erratic and dangerous energy. We want you to be delighted and surprised by the chaos you cause. On top of that, we should make the choice of using your abilities something to better strategize around, and reward you for doing so.

 Chain Lightning Melee

Can now chain up to 5 times, up from 1, and each individual target can be hit twice

Chain damage decreased from 50 to 31 damage per chain hit

 Arc Web

Can now chain to many (many) more targets, and back and forth between targets

The amount of chaining varies based on use, and I will leave it to you all to discover!

Increase chain range from 10 meters to 12 meters

Chaining Arc damage now reduces the cooldown of your grenade

Works with Arc Web chains and chains from Chain Lightning Melee

Earn 3% energy per instance of chain damage in PvE

Earn 10% energy per instance of chain damage in PvP

 Stormcaller Attunement of the Elements (Bottom Path)

Notes: Currently this path focuses on creating drone buddies for allies and staying close to them to dish out more Rifts and the buddies therein. Generally, Arc drone is short-lived, and you need to stay close to your Rift to keep it around. Now you will be able to take your pal further and, if you stick with friends, will be able to have it around much more often, making this path more potent as support.

 Electrostatic Surge:

Increased bonus regeneration rate of Rift by 600% per nearby friendly Guardian

This sounds insane, and it’s a big boost you will definitely feel, but it was previously very low.

Extends Rift duration from 15 to 20 seconds

Added a UI notification for when the buff is active

 Arc Soul:

Extended duration by 50%.

 Now let’s talk about some non-Arc Changes, as well…

 Voidwalker Nova Warp Super

Notes: Clearly we swung a bit hard when we hit this previously. This should serve as a nice middle ground to settle into.

Reduced initial charged detonation energy cost by 20%

Reduced energy cost of holding the charged detonation by 7%

Reduced time required to fully charge the charged detonation from 0.9 seconds to 0.7 seconds

Reduced Dark Blink cost by 20%

Increased base Super duration from 18 seconds to 22 seconds

 Dawnblade Everlasting Fire Perk

Notes: Similar to the Striker, we wanted to make sure this perk didn’t allow for infinite Supers in certain activities. We’ve increased the amount you get back upfront but put diminishing returns on it so you can’t go forever. This will still be a Super you can extend much longer with skill.

Tuned the amount of Super gained from Everlasting Fire

Initial return increased from 10% to 13% Super energy

Return then decays linearly over the course of 30 kills from 13% to 0.75% returned per kill

 You may be asking “What about Spectral blades???”

 We know it’s out of bounds and are working right now on a few tweaks to bring it back in line. We’ll let you know the details once we’ve finished play testing and tuning to lock in on what the changes will be

Quote

Next week, Update 2.2.1 will be deploying on April 9. Here is a preview of some changes you can look forward to along with the Arc Week rollout.

 

Catalysts

Four new Exotic weapon catalysts will be available to drop in Nightfall, strikes, and the Crucible

Prospector (Nightfall, strikes)

Rat King (Nightfall, strikes)

Hard Light (Nightfall, strikes)

SUROS Regime (Crucible)

 

Warlock Bloom Ability

Fixing an issue where the Bloom ability would not deal damage

 

Xûr

Xûr’s inventory will now offer random-rolled perks for armor

 

Infusion

Fixing an issue where the Vow could not be infused above 650

Fixing an issue where the BrayTech RWP Mk. II could not be infused above 600

 

Gambit Prime Weapons

Most Gambit Prime weapons will now have a chance to drop as match completion rewards from Gambit Prime

Increasing drop rates for Gambit Prime weapons from the Reckoning

Both Gambit Prime and the Reckoning will have increased drop rates for weapons after each completion without a drop until players are guaranteed a reward

 

Gambit Prime

An invasion kill will heal 8% of the Primeval's health, down from 12%

The invasion portal cooldown time during the Primeval phase will be increased to 40 seconds, up from 30 seconds

This cooldown triggers after a player has been killed or successfully returns from an invasion

Gambit Prime will now count to unlock the Weekly Gambit Clan Engram

 

Quests and Bounties

Power Surge Bounties that have been deleted or expired will now be available on the Drifter

Each bounty can still be completed only once per character

Yes Sir, I'm a Closer Weekly Gambit Prime bounty will now award 4 points for a win and 2 points for a loss, with a completion value of 20 points

All 4 weekly role bounties for Gambit Prime now grant powerful helmet rewards

On the subject of PVP - It aint going anywhere:

Quote

One more thing before we close This Week out. There have been a lot of questions about the future of the Crucible in Destiny, and what plans we have to support PvP going forward. Yesterday, we let you know during a stream that we have no plans to remove PVP from the Destiny franchise.

 

A lot of feedback on Crucible and how it could improve comes in the form of suggested sandbox changes that would impact the flow of combat in PvP. As you can see from the section above, we are still committed to updating the sandbox as frequently as we can, and we have an update going out next week.

 

We have bigger Crucible changes being planned for later this year, but we aren’t ready to talk about those plans just yet. We hope to share more with you sometime this summer. In the meantime, we will continue to provide updates to matchmaking, QOL fixes, Sandbox balance, and Glory changes.

[tnman]

I'm assuming the complete lack of replies to this thread post-TWAB indicates that most forumites are like myself? By which I mean, the reaction to 'Arc Week' as an event is a resounding: meh.

[Uncle Mike]

I think most of us have "drifted" away for this season. I assume I'll return for the next raid, but maybe not. 

[Gorf King]

The thing about Arc Week is it's not really an event*. I mean, the event itself is simply lots of things having Arc singe, which isn't that much of an event. The big thing about Arc Week is the big buffs to some Arc supers, and they're permanent rather than time-limited. Which has led to some wags calling Arc Week 'Patch Notes - The Event'.

 

But yeah, not a lot of people are bothered right now because the content right now is basically Gambit, or Gambit-focused, and I guess a fair few people don't want to log in just to play Gambit / Reckoning and nothing else new. Apart from maybe the Xür thing for 30 mins a week if you're that bothered about the lore. You could always do stuff to get your power up to the new max, but there's nothing you need it for, so why bother? The numbers in themselves are meaningless if there's no destination, like a raid or something.

 

Like Mike, I have my doubts about the next raid too. Partly because Leviathan. But mainly because it's just getting harder to get a genuinely blind raid team together early doors - it's always a rush/struggle to get power up quickly enough, and there's a lot of time commitment needed for that and the intensive raid runs themselves. You really need an enthusiastic team with a lot of time to pool together lots of nights a week, and as we get older that gets rarer. Guess we'll see.

 

* Except for the fact that it's bringing back a Thunderlord quest thing for anyone who missed it first time around. I know at least one person who did, and who's likely to log on again just for that.

[lewismistreated]

I read one rumor that mentioned there wasn't going to be any Taken King/Rise of Iron/Forsaken-level expansion for Fall of this year, with another year of smaller content updates replacing it. If that's true, and I sincerely hope it isn't, then I will see you all in 2020 for Destiny 3.

I think that's inevitable. Maybe the first drop of the Y3 pass will have a bit more oomph, but there's no way they can do a full-on TTK/Forsaken release for September - it's just too much diminishing returns (think about how few D2 players actually played Forsaken at all - easily the best thing they ever created). They have to concentrate on developing a completely revamped, start-from-scratch title to get the buyers back in for the all-new indie version of Destiny. Think lots of 'this is what the game was always meant to be' PR. Given the ups and downs of D2 (and D1 for that matter) it's the obvious thing to do.

 

Hopefully they'll be able to launch with something like TTK/Forsaken this time, rather than build up to it over 12 months.

I haven't played the season of the drifter at all yet.

 

The week before it launched I decided I was a bit over the game. Felt like it was the same content all the time and that they were pushing more towards PVP - which is my least enjoyable aspect of the game.

Encouraging players to dip into classes that they perhaps don't play as much is a nice idea I think, and if they do different elements regularly as part of the Mayhem rotation that's a nice way to jazz it up a little. I do find Arc a bit meh though as I'm not a big fan of Arcstrider, I guess it's a good opportunity to try out the Titan and Warlock Arc classes!
