Anybody want to raid with me and my buddy, right now?
Hopefully, you got someone to run it with you last night. I saw this, but I was just about to get off.Beau Holder said:

Destiny 2 Live Team is gonna take over and here is there breakdown of "seasons" and what types of changes they'll be included.

Where was it?

https://www.twitch.tv/twitchconcoolcat
TL;DR -
- Torch has been passed from team who made Destiny 2 to the team that is maintaining it aka the Live Team.
- Live Team's goals:
- New reasons to keep playing
- New pursuites, rituals, and challenges.
- And more..
- Examples: Iron Banner, Faction Rally's, etc.
Expansion 1 - Winter 2017 aka Osiris DLC
- Seasons:
- Max level so that old/smaller clans have a chance vs only larger more active clans to dominate. Keeps everything on a more fair level.
- Seasons have themes associated with them. They take feedback from the community for adding and adjusting things such as new emotes, rewards, etc.
- Goals:
- More predictable time tables (what to expect and when)
- Destiny 2 year 1: 4 seasons
- Make big changes to the game
- Sandbox tuning, new features, more content

- Meant so you don't feel like you have to play Destiny ALL the time.
- Season 2: The Dawning will make a return shortly after the launch.
- Ice Hockey will be enabled
- Other Easter Eggs
- You can have snowball fights
- Event affects will be throughout the world, not just the social space.
- Armor preview
- Armor, Weapons, Shaders, and possibly emotes will come
- Iron Banner - What Bungie Learned:
- 1,500 YEARS worth of time played between all guardians.
- Learned how we interacted with the loot system. Will be changes to loot such as letting us direct purchase guns via tokens and legendary shards.
- The token economy is not always the best way for everything.
- Unlock ornaments via gameplay vs tokens for some events in the future.
- Heard community feedback of wanting rewards more meaningful.
- One more Iron Banner in Season 1.
- For Season 2, there will be an ornaments slot requiring an objective to unlock to show that you completed a limited event objective.
- Some new gear
- Perks and stats will be updated.
- There will be a complimentary energy and kinetic weapon so you can have one of each.
- Trials of The Nine
- There will be ornaments as well, not shown yet but "They look really cool"
- Updated weapons, both visual look and perks
- Faction Rally
- Data was tallied cross-platform.
- One more in Season 1
- Screenshot
- For Season 2 there will be changes to promote playing with a fireteam more vs just solo.
Season 2

- Faction Rally Armor can be earned by just playing and repping your faction.
- Dead Orbit
- NM
- FWC
- Weapons
- Clarion Call:
- When: Before end of Season 1
- Double XP while playing activities with your Fireteam
- Pilot: Clan collaboration required
- Screenshot
- Bright Engrams
- All the emotes, and other rewards from it will be updated and changed
- New Mic Drop emote
- Fun Fact: Bungie has a recording studio that they record the emotes.
- New transmat effects
- Exotic Ships
- Exotic Sparrows
- Ghosts
- Example 1
- Example 2 - Rotating rotates solar system behind it
- Example 3
- Example 4 - Dawning Exclusive
- Shaders
- Shaders stay season over season (Unless Bungie adjusts down the line, no plays at the moment)
- They heard our feedback over deleting shaders in mass - On the to do list.
- Armor
- Changes in bright engrams when season changes
- New armor with new seasons
- Crucible Maps
- When certain rituals complete special maps goes live to entire circulation - Example
- Such as the Trials of Nine map, Raid themed map, Shores of time themed from Destiny 1, etc.
Sandbox Tuning
- What is the sandbox? The playable space.
- Diagnosing the Meta - Data view
- They have data on basically everything you do such as most played subclass, weapon, what bullets fired from what weapon, usage of basically everything in game.
- Clan rank resets at Season 2
- New perks to earn, targeted at what the game goals are (based on the Season themes)
- Clan rewards
- You can change the staff/bar in the middle based on clan rewards from seasons.
- Clan engram updates
- Make sure loot pool updates
- Bungie will be at Paris Games Week next week
- https://Twitch.tv/Bungie will be going live soonTM with more info
I guess that gives me some hope that the live team hasn't taken over yet, because the dev team doesn't know crap about crucible or loot rewards.
From the video:
"You can kill combatants with snowballs. "
"You can kill combatants with snowballs. "
I'm glad the live team is taking over. There's a lot that I liked at the end of Destiny 1 that inexplicably wasn't included in D2.
Check your PSN messages.
Ive been soo disappointed with this destiny. Ive been busy as hell, but usually make destiny time and i havent felt the need to do that this year. Gross.

They made some great changes: no more grinding for materials, no need to spend 11ty billion motes of light to upgrade armor, etc.
And then they made as many, if not more, awful changes: can't choose what crucible match you play (I mean seriously? How does that idea get approved?), their response to the legitimate gripe of not being able to access grimoire in-game is to completely demolish grimoire and all of the amazing world building it provided, prestige mode nightfall and raid give you literally nothing useful, etc etc etc
Bungie showed the ability to actively course correct with updates and expansions to D1; hopefully they'll do the same here....
As a player with very limited playing time I love it! I also did not play D1 was on PC at that time.

I havne't even bothered to play in the past 3 weeks or so. I never did a nightfall, only went into the raid on the blind run, and I just sont' feel the need. I liked crucible, but honestly I'd just rather play overwatch for PVP now. I don't know if I just played too much Destiny in D1 and got burned out, but I enjoyed the story in this one at least. It just didn't keep me coming back very long.
*shrug*
*shrug*
now that the game is over anyone want to run nightfall?
you must be burnt out if you prefer overwatchMBAR said:

Taking a break at the moment. I have pretty little play time as it is because of school and work. What I do have has been playing fractured but whole and want to tackle the first evil within. I will come back for the first expansion and hopefully some good changes get made the. To suck me back in
Yeah I took a break too. Iron Banner broke me. Stupid duplicate packages
Overwatch is so much better at PVP than Destiny tho. I fee llike OW is exactly waht Destiny wants to be with their move to PC and trying to make the cruicible an esport but it really lacks the variety of mechanics that Overwatch has.PatAg said:you must be burnt out if you prefer overwatchMBAR said:

Destiny is a much broader game than Overwatch without a doubt but Overwatch blows away the cruicible, IMO.
Having now gone a month without getting a boot drop on ANY of my three characters to finally get me to 305....I...I may be done until expansion.
I'll be around for NF and Raids with you guys though, but its seems many of us have all picked up other things to play.
Its still a great game, but between frustration and actually not having anything to grind for...well...

This week at Bungie:
https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/46427
Live team is taking over and things they are working on:
- New systems and rewards to give our most engaged players additional, optional pursuits.
- Better incentives for players who complete challenging Prestige activities.
- Better rewards and replay value for strikes, adventures, and Lost Sectors.
- Private matches for the competitive community (we are targeting early 2018).
- Crucible tuning like adjusted Supremacy scoring and better spawning rules.
- Better incentives for completing Crucible matches (and penalties for quitting competitive games).
- Continued improvements to Iron Banner and Faction Rallies, including uniqueness of rewards.
- Changes to make the mod economy more interesting and impactful.
- Ongoing improvements to Exotics, including adjustments to reduce instances of duplication.
- New ways to spend surplus currency and materials (looking at you Legendary Shards).

Live Team for the win!

Live team feels like a modding community. Putting in all the things the community asks for.
It does seem the Live team understands a bit more why folks grind away at Destiny than the main team.
Though the Main team did deliver a great experience to about 265, after than...it falls off.
When the Live Team fixes that, it will be a joy to grind. Destiny still has some of the best minute to minute gameplay of any game out there.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Hope it adds enough to keep us engaged more than the base game did. Also not what I pictured Osiris to look like. Any idea if it'll include a raid?
It's also been pointed out that the Jade Rabbit and Telesto appear in the trailer. And the Templar's Well from VoG

"New raid content" - Interesting word choice. Take it as you willQuote:
Curse of Osiris adds a new chapter to the world of Destiny 2, expanding the universe by adding an all-new cinematic story with new and returning characters, a new destination to explore, Mercury and its Infinite Forest, a new social space to visit called the Lighthouse, new missions, new strikes, new raid content, new free roam activities, a world quest to complete, and more.
