Destiny 2 Fall 2018: New Mode Details

Bungie's statement claims the XP system was fixed but we don't know what that means or if it was actually fixed yet, so stay tuned! We've reached out to Bungie for clarification on how their downscaling may have impacted real-money purchases mentioned above and will update accordin


The Prometheus Lens weapon contains Prismatic Inferno, which means it fires "a solar trace beam that generates a damaging heat field that grows while the weapon continues to fire." What's more, kills obtained with the Prometheus Lens replenishes the weapon's ammo and even extends the beam its


"For example, if the player purchased a particular weapon, the microtransaction engine may match the player in a gameplay session in which the particular weapon is highly effective. This may encourage the player to make future purchases to achieve similar gameplay resul


On a blog post over at their official site, Bungie addressed the backlash. The developer attempted to explain why the changes were made in the first place and what is being done to fix them. The post sta


Developer Bungie has once again found itself in the position of having to apologize to **Destiny 2 ** gamers. The issue, this time at least, revolves around the game's latest expansion The Curse of Osiris and the way that the game has dealt with access to certain cont


The Dragon's Shadow (costs 23 Legendary Shards) is an exotic Hunter class chest armor that's constructed out of wraithmetal mail and "grants movement and weapon handling speed for a short time after dodging," which should come especially handy during PvP matches, considering Hunters do a fair amount of dodging in competitive. Also, Hunters who use a Void subclass will have their class abilities recharge faster - and the ability can stack up to 3 ti


We’ve seen community discussion around XP gain in Destiny. After reviewing our data, we agree that the system is not performing the way we’d like it to. Today, we’d like to describe what’s going on under the hood, and talk about what you can expect going forward when it comes to earning XP in Destin


No mention of making up for the lost rewards or the monetization aspect here of course and there's another layer to just how bad this really may be. As Destiny 2 launched there were licensed tie-in merchandise (Pop-Tarts!) that came with things like XP boosters and the Eververse store also sells consumable, time-limited boosters called Fireteam Medallions and knowing that Bungie was stealing back XP earned, that effectively means these real-money purchases they were stealing back as well. Now it makes sense why the Fireteam Medallion descriptions don't reveal how much more of anything it really gives you. Perhaps it's nothing at


Bungie continues working against players as they've now blocked select **Destiny 2 ** end-game content for those who haven't purchased the game's DLC. The game's first mini-expansion, Curse of Osiris , released this past Tuesday and came with new missions - as well as an increase in the game's soft level cap, from 20 to 25, and gear level cap, from 300 to 330 (gear can be increased by 5 using legendary mods) - in addition to introducing new higher-level, end-game content, such as Heroic Stri


That means for two+ months since Destiny 2 has launched the game has been robbing players of a massive amount of in-game earnings that otherwise have a real-world value since they're being sold. And Bungie had it running this way without indicating anywhere that this was the case. Sketchy?


In other words, Bungie locked the content behind the DLC because Curse of Osiris raises the level cap and consequently the difficulty. Bungie wanted the Prestige Modes to be the hardest in the game and require the highest level cap. Without the increased level cap due to the expansion, the levels of all players wouldn't be the same. Even though that does feel like a slap in the face to the gamers who have bought the game and now are being punished by having content taken away from them until they pay extra, Bungie thankfully sees the problem. Later in the post it was explained that changes are being implemented immediately to reverse the lock-o


Curse of Osiris comes on the heels of Bungie suffering overwhelming backlash for rigging Destiny 2 's XP system , with regard to players earning Bright Engrams post-Level 20, thus forcing them to " fix " the system. But they failed to mention if they would make it up their mistake to players by compensating them with in-game rewards that they lost out on. Unfortunately, Bungie seems to be doing the exact opposite, as they're now blocking previously available end-game content behind


The release of a new gameplay mode in Destiny 2 guide|https://destiny2mix.com/ 2 comes at a great time for the game, which will see an influx of returning players thanks to the Warmind expansion's release. While the game hasn't exactly struggled in maintaining a core player base, Destiny 2 has been criticized for a lack of variety in its content, something that was a major issue in the original Destiny as w
