I'm really hoping there is some way where my friends on PC and my friends on Xbox can all play together. The groundwork is all there, it's just up to Bungie to do it. They could make it so you can link accounts and carry characters and progression over, they could make it a play anywhere title, or they could make it cross platform compatible. Any way they do it, do something.

Plus Activision doesn't have a great track record with FPS's on PC.
No chance their is crossplay though.

I'd be more concerned with Bungie having very little experience making PC games. Activision doesn't make the game.

Well yea they don't make CoD games either, and it's terribly ported and cared for on PC. Activision probably tells the companies to put all their assets into consoles, and spare change into the PC port.

highly enjoyed Destiny. probably my favorite console modern FPS/PVP just behind BF4 and MW2/BLOPS.
This will definitely be on the radar for Manitoba winter hibernation season lol

That's fine and I understand that, it makes sense, but between Xbox and PC, all the tools necessary are already there to do some sort of compatibility thing between them, it's just a matter of Bungie wanting to.

What I want fixed for Destiny 2:
*Full sized game on release, not paywalled behind DLC
*Lore content put in game, as opposed to in a separate app
*Party making/social system put in game, as opposed to in a separate app
*Meaningful PvP Ladder System
*More open world content, as opposed to constantly re-running the same missions
*Less emphasis on daily/weekly grinding and timed releases

*Less emphasis on daily/weekly grinding and timed releases
a few things I'd like:
-it should remain possible to reach max light/level/power/whatever for the solo player through a healthy variety of activities. there are a lot of players who aren't really able to raid due to schedule or whatever reason. making sure people could do this, and therefore be of competitive power level if for example a raid opportunity did arise, was an important change.
-I'd like patrol to be meaningful, and interesting to do. that means more than just a tiny little cell of a map at a time with two small mobs on it. every client for this game will now have at least 8 gigs of memory, I'm expecting the second game will be making use of it. the public events were a decent idea, flesh those out some more and also have things like the fallen bike rider patrols and maybe Randal the Vandal type rare spawns that take multiple guardians to defeat. There should be lots to do on the planetary areas including separate interior areas within the zones of course.
-longer term objectives that make simply logging on and playing the game worthwhile in terms of progressing your character/gear
-expansion of the POE/AF concept. horde mode is pretty fun. we need greater variety in modes, maps, enemies and maybe sets of exclusive gear.
-matchmaking on nightfall because why not, exactly? not counting unfortunate burn/enemy combinations, the heroic playlist tends to be too easy. I'd rather play a nightfall playlist of some kind
-stop making changes that affect PvE which are made for entirely PvP reasons.
-I would like to see other game modes besides strike and raid. what about a 6 man patrol mode? what about a type of set mission that is longer than a strike, but shorter than a raid? If your typical strike is, to use pretend numbers, 20 minutes and your typical raid is say 2-3 hours, what about a mission that should take about an hour or so to complete?
-really wish the weapon switching could be overhauled. I'd like to be able to switch weapons of the same type much more quickly.

Those are all good changes I'd like for sure.
The PvE changes that also effect PvP and vice versa is a big one; it's a terrible design decision and should never be done again but Bungie seems pretty stubborn when it comes to listening to the community so we'll see...
Yea from some rumours/leaks awhile ago there is supposed to be a lot bigger playable zones which are way more fleshed out with NPCs/social hubs and quest givers all over (MMO like); they also need to make factions well factions and not just 'equip a trinket and now you earn xp for us, then you can buy our weapons'.
Something like PoE/AF should be in the game from the start, and not leave it to a big part of a expansion. Just more things to do in general that make it worthwhile to log-in everyday, and not just doing a different story mission everyday for Marks. Needs to be less grindy in general, and not have 25 different currencies.
Lastly dedicated servers should be in, after how awful the PvP ran every other game (bit of an exaggeration) for 3 years. No excuses here, but I'm fully expecting one. (Also I wouldn't be mad if they ditched Deej, not a fan of him).

Agree with Volcanologist and contrary to AKL's elitist opinion, I agree that you should be able to get high levelled as a solo player. Forcing you to go meet random strangers because your buddies don't play is the worst way to alienate gamers.

I don't care too much about the PvP ladder, but other than that this is essential in my mind.
I gave Destiny a lot of flak at launch, but the potential was always there and the gun play was a lot of fun. I'm hoping for the best with Destiny 2.

It's not elitist. You should not be able to max your light level without doing the hardest content. Same in any RPG. The best gear drops from the hardest bosses. Otherwise why would anyone do raids? I say this as a person who did minimal raiding in Destiny the first three years and doesn't raid in WoW and I'm OK with not having the best gear because I didn't earn it.
Have 60Hz server tickrates for multiplayer and have something to make me keep coming back to, solo or with friends. Those are the two big things for me.

"Best gear" and max light level (or whatever leveling system D2 puts in place) do not have to be mutually exclusive. There should be multiple paths to hit max level and be able to participate in any end game activities, whether it be solo grind, PVP, or PVE raiding. The rewards from doing the raids are the specific loot you get from the encounters, as well as the experience of just completing it.

I should absolutely be able to get the best gear through PvP. I don't even care if they make it super hard but if somebody is shredding the Crucible or whatever other PvP events they should be getting the best gear, especially since most people just cheese the raids for gear anyway. I don't see how glitching a raid over and over again equals "earning" it more than someone who is dominating PvP play.
