Destiny 2 Dev Tracker

Any word on Vortex and Void Wall grenades doing 3x less damage? Was this a nerf or a bug? Feels like a bug bc 65% less damage is huge.

Team's digging on it.

We're moving a bit fast between all of the feedback and general bug reports - looks like we missed a callout for this one in the TWAB.

Once we have more info, we'll let you know.

(Edit - somehow snagged the wrong quote. My bad!)

Not the time to lose one’s head.

"The words "lazy', "uninspired", and "just incredibly disappointing" come to mind."

Happy launch day.

Translation: I LOVE to make dmg's life harder

Just some inside baseball, but we often work on releases WAY ahead of time. Like right now we're wrapping work on S18 and starting S19.

So I wouldn't read too much into anything I say ever because on top of the above facts I also LOVE to f*ck with expectations. ;)

Hey ScornCrossbowRaider,

I’ll see if I can get some developer commentary on this change. I understand it can be frustrating when your weapon gets a bit of an adjustment when you weren’t expecting it. Especially when it’s been a go-to for so long.

Very often, the sands of our sandbox shift change. What was once a powerhouse in PvE may be taking a break from the limelight after a few seasons of being overtuned (especially when compared to other weapons, or having the ability to one-shot guardians). Balance passes will come and go - maybe your favorite will rise once more.

Only time will tell!

(And before ANY of you take a screenshot of this and say OMG NEW WEAPON or OMG SUBCLASS 3.0 REVEAL - this is satire)

Pre-launch excitement, waiting for a couch to be delivered, and the general Saturday morning check to see if a bug was discovered while I was sleeping…

Also I just kind of like this place.

Yeah - I think the team has been doing some great work to remove the feeling that it's necessary to "prep" for a new season. I used to keep a couple bounties here and there, even threw on ye olde poptart double XP boosts from years and years ago. End of the day, it just isn't necessary for how much I play.

I understand the perspective of those who want the newest things immediately. End of the day, most folks who frequent reddit, bungie.net, or other social spaces have the majority of rewards or unlocks within a couple of weeks due to their playstyles.

For our more casual crowds, they usually just don't care to prep and p...

Team's digging. We've been prepping for next Tuesday for the last few days, seems we've hit a snag.

Until resolved, you won't be able to find opponents in PvP/Gambit, and will likely load into social spaces, patrols, and strikes solo.

Stay tuned to BungieHelp for updates.

Received. I've forwarded them to our team to investigate.

Hey there. Sorry to hear that you had this issue. Can you send me a DM with some of your order numbers? I’ll try to contact someone and see what’s going on.

There will still be event related cosmetics on the Eververse store for both Silver and Bright Dust (such as this year's Solstice universal ornaments). The additional cosmetics on the Event Card will not be available for Bright Dust during the event.

My favorite core value of Bungie is "We create worlds that inspire friendship."

Love to see evidence of this out in the world. Wish you two all of the best.

They are definitely not rigged. I assumed Hunters would win the first couple of days like last year when drafting this. Then I struck through them and put Warlocks. Then I forgot to add the strikethrough formatting when moving everything into the CMS. Should be fixed now!

Thanks, I accidently broke the key when moving the formatting over. It's fixed now if you want to update this post. :)

:)

I want to say something that hasn't been mentioned often: You guys have been killing it on communication in the last couple years. Its night and day to how I felt as a player during destiny 1 and into early destiny 2. Keep up the quality and frequency in your engagement with the community.

As a final reddit reply before leaving for three weeks, I can say this: We've been empowered by the team at large to spread more information more frequently. It's been awesome to see this community grow, and see Bungie adapt to further support of a live game. We've done good work on the community team to push the needle, but none of it would be possible without the support of everyone at the studio. Of course there are plans we can't share or conversations that we can't always have, but damn does it feel good to dive in to the nitty-gritty from time to time.

We've made TWAB/Patch Note mistakes in the past (Auto Rifles buffed by .04%) that led to a desire...

Lorely will be tuned in Season 17.

Scout rifles exist. Acknowledged.

What about Scouts do you believe need tuning in PvP/PvE?

Give us details and we can pass them along.

We'll have some details on Resilience changes (PvE) in a future TWAB. Stay tuned.
