Kotaku sums up Destiny player burn-out

http://kotaku.com/five-months-in-hardcore-destiny-players-are-hitting-a-1684813586 This is not a bash. It comes from someone who, like many of us, really likes Destiny but is reaching a point of burn-out. The things that popped out to me are the lack of carrots and poor communication from Bungie. If you trawl the forums, you'll find many threads dedicated to each point made, but this is a handy summation of the frustration hardcore Destiny players are, and have been, facing of late. I'm no hater, and like Kirk, the article's author, I know there's an unbelievable game inside Destiny. I'm looking forward to HoW, but until then, it'll just have to be a strike now and again. Edit 1: You guys all rock. It's been a very clear-headed conversation in here so far, aside from some weak trolls. And thanks for the bumps! I think it's good to read what a lot of us have been thinking. Edit 2: I'm pretty sure the forum ninjas have buried any Kotaku-related posts so they don't trend. That's their prerogative, and somewhat understandable despite the normal levels of vitriol you can generally find on these forums. Feel free to bump if you think others should read it but, after over twenty-four hours of pretty constant replies from you crazy, magnificent bastards, it's fair to say that we don't need an article to spur healthy discussion about one of our favorite games.

  • Exactly how I feel. The no heavy ammo for the fourth week in a row was the straw that broke the camel's back. Love this game, but Bungie's consistent inability to address actual player concerns (heavy ammo bug, raid glitches, etc) and waste their time on fixes no one even asked for (the new weapon tuning update) has forced me to just stop the nonsense for a while. I'll get on for the weekly resets, but thats about it. I don't mean to bitch but coming from someone who has more than 400 hours in the game, it really seems like they don't care. If they did they would IMMEDIATELY make sure Xur sells heavy ammo and at the very least post actual updates on their own website and not some random game forum elsewhere.
