Destiny 2' Just Made Three Of Its Biggest Changes News

Bungie,Destiny 2

I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.

While Bungie is constantly updating Destiny 2 , the last few months in particular have cracked open a vault of player requests in a way that seems like someone pulled an emergency lever ahead of The Final Shape. Or at least execs finally started listening to the feedback of the fanbase and their own devs and greenlit these changes.

That is now over. All these old weapons can be raised to current power. The problem is that weapon sunsetting has been in place for so long that most players have deleted countless sunset weapons from their vault, even many favorites, because they never thought this would happen. And Bungie says they can’t undo that.

While this change is cool and can create a burst of nostalgia as you take some classics out of your vault, one reason theydo this is that almost all of these weapons have been power crept out of relevance at this point with stronger perks and subclass 3.0 integration. And some of the biggest “offenders” from that period like Recluse or Luna’s Howl have been nerfed a few times at this point so they’re not about to start showing up and dominating everything.

Now, Bungie is changing that. The people in your fireteam will scale up to close to the level of whoever had the highest power. At worst, they will be five under power compared to the leader, even if they might be 50 power under in actuality. This removes what is arguably the biggest barrier to playing with friends currently in the game even if it’s not say, giving them good loadouts or game knowledge. At least in terms of power, they will now be on equal footing.

This is such a good change. I have been saying for years and years that you are only experiencing a fraction of the game running a single class due to how different and fun the game can be when using multiple classes. But I understood why most people wouldn’t have time for the grind to keep alts powered up. Now, that’s going to be much, much easier to manage. I recommend everyone create all three classes for sure.
