Personally I'd add the following changes as needing implemented ASAP, some old some new in no real order: 1) If you don't have the expansion, you should not see expansion content anywhere, not have your favorite weekly activities locked out. This means the expansion would expand the game, not remove content for some. 2) Gear upgrades should be tagged on to existing gear as well as adding new gear. For example, I just fully upgraded shadow price & a dead orbit piece of armor, & now the vendor sells the exact same piece with a higher light level. How this should work, is my fully upgraded armor piece should get another 1-3 armor / light level upgrades tacked on to the end of the upgrade tree for me to work on, not force me to scrap a hard earned, hard upgraded item only to get much the same piece & grind out the same content over again. The same should apply to exotics, but maybe new upgrades should cost a good bit more. Same result, less grinding, the player feels rewarded as the progression continues rather than being reset to the detriment of morale. 3) Player-player trading. 4) Let us equip multiple exotics for PvE. Make it the way it is now for PvP. That or make the exotics much more powerful & individual. 5) Increase the glimmer cap. 6) Have scaled versions of the nightfall & raid. If I want to do the nightfall with 6 players, let me do it & script in a crap load of enemies. If I want to do the raid with 3, scale it down to make it just as hard as with 6. 7) Class specific bonuses: Hunters can carry more sniper ammo, Titans can take a more damage, that type of thing. 8) Let legendary engrams drop more often. At high levels we need these to get shards, energy etc. Greens are of no use dropping at level 29. 9) Remove the weekly mark limits and let people just play. 10) Give us back our materials for marks exchange. 11) Give the engram reward back to the level 24 strikes. Make level 26 give 2 if you want. I'd say we're all happy that expansion players get more, they paid for it, but don't cut out the rest of us from the original content. 12) Get public events to trigger more often. 13) A bigger storage vault would be nice. 14) Make the gunsmith do something useful, as others have suggested, make him do the Xur stuff with legendaries. 15) More varied enemy spawns, more massed enemy events. 16) Let us replay the likes of nightfalls etc each day with reduced rewards. For example, make the chance for an exotic a once a week deal, make the 'daily' version give us an engram, glimmer, something. Anything to match the difficulty with the reward over the lower level strikes. There is likely other problems I've forgotten. Do you guys know how much money you'd rake in making those changes? Hell even if you charged for all that in a DLC pack or 2 I'd buy it. I guess if you made all those changes to Destiny, that'd be 16 less reasons to make us buy Destiny 2. Which leads to the other problem, all the talent is now working on Destiny 2 & a skeleton crew is left behind to fix major issues, make small alterations & drip out the already completed DLC. I really want to continue playing the game, I had a lot of co-op fun, have all 3 classes at level 24 or above & have loads of exotic weapons. But I log on now, think about the level of grinding to upgrade just one weapon including already fully upgraded ones, let alone my entire gear stock since the expansion, & I just log off again. If each expansion presses the reset button instead of offering genuine progression, why play? Destiny doesn't need a sequel. It needs expanded. The engine feels great, it just needs new content. Nobody looks at the game & thinks about a new version the way we might about an old dated game. People think 'give me more of [b]this[/b] game'. Take us to Saturn to investigate the derelict human fleet, let us explore the Reef & learn about the Awoken, take us to Mercury to see the planetary Vex nexus. Let us meet the Nine at Jupiter & unravel their mysteries, let us discover the story of the EXO stranger, learn about the Traveller. It's all there for the taking with DLC that could go on until the next console generation, then release Destiny 2.
