Bungie has been establishing a much more intimate relationship with fans when it comes to information regarding Destiny 2 's future, so Johnson playing coy most likely means that he isn't being hyperbolic regarding the new gameplay mode. If Bungie hasn't informed fans about what to expect from the fall release yet, it's because it is a massive development. Destiny 2 features a detailed roadmap of its content plans that extends into the late summer currently, with no information regarding the expansion in the fall as of
With the much-needed changes coming in Warmind (though there are still loot boxes...) and the potential for a genre-changing development in the fall expansion, Destiny 2 appears primed to recapture the industry's imagination. Activision, and Destiny 2 fans, will hope the game's third expansion follows the same blueprint its predecessor's did - Destiny 's third expansion, The Taken King , was hailed as the best the game had ever offered, winning over scores of fans and wooing players into returning for a significant amount of t
In Destiny 2 , players learned that Mercury was being mined to the point of breaking apart by the Cabal, to fuel Ghaul's sun-killer weapon, the Almighty. It's unknown how much of it was broken off from the planet proper, but the Curse of Osiris trailer suggests that it's still at least partially int
"[The fall release has] an incredibly engaging new mode - one that introduces a whole new style of play for first-person shooter gaming generally and certainly for the shared-world shooter space that Destiny created. It's a really exciting developme
Bungie's reputation with gamers is hanging by a thread judging by how they've been treating their consumer base lately. And the problem is that this isn't anything new for them... or for Activision. The developer employed the same shady tactics in the first Destiny game, and they got away with it, for the most part, which is why they've brought the same mechanic back for the sequel. But now that the gaming industry is under fire for its predatory tactics, with EA bearing the brunt of the industry's consumer backlash , Bungie deciding to use the same mechanics for Destiny 2 may just tip their fan base against t
"[ Star Wars Battlefront II ] has pretty clearly significantly underperformed expectations and remains without a live services revenue stream, while Destiny 2 has at the least suffered some unwanted engagement attrition. We suspect that 2018 will see a pullback on industry attempts to aggressively drive [microtransaction] growth as a resu
The release of a new gameplay mode in Destiny 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
Game Informer first reported on Creutz's findings, which are based on an analysis of gaming company stock prices in the wake of various key releases. Creutz specifically cited drops in the value of Electronic Arts stock following the release of Star Wars: Battlefront II and Activision stock prices dropping after the release of Destiny 2 DLC|Https://Destiny2Mix.Com/ 2 . While Creutz acknowledged that Destiny 2 had other reasons for attracting the ire of gamers (i.e. a buggy product on release day ), he still pointed to consumer backlash against microtransactions as a key factor in player dissatisfaction. Creutz s
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
They're certainly not beating around the bush when it comes to the death of a fan-favorite. According to Taylor, the team always knew it was going to be Cayde, and that his death had been planned for a long while. Fans had previously datamined information regarding Cayde's death, but Barrett and Taylor said that info was actually unrelated to the Forsaken expansion. Clearly, Cayde's death wasn't just a Forsaken -only event - Bungie had been tossing the idea around for much lon
Officially, the Vanguard has no idea what happened to him after that, beyond a vague report that he went to Mercury. But based on the just-released trailer for Curse of Osiris , it seems that at least one Guardian has secretly been keeping tabs on him: his protégé, Ikora Rey. Given his interest in the Vex, it shouldn't be surprising that Osiris turned up on the closest planet to our sun — a planet now used by the Vex as part of its universal hive mind netw
