Well I wish they had a twid that focused as much on PVE changes, but the current and foreseeable future focus is on PVP. New strike maps 4 or more are needed New Gambit maps and improvements are sorely needed because it is the least played of the 3 ritual activities. Ignore it and we will also. New lost sectors, like a half dozen New enemy types and not just bosses like tormentors, Cabal with backpacks do not count. Stop the season activity and start making lasting content. (players stopped doing psi op and battle grounds and we will not be doing this seasons activities, in following seasons) Better seasonal story missions, visiting 4 or 5 radio chats and a lost sector for previous seasons is not cutting it! Much of what they are making is useless in following seasons and forcing it down our throats as nightfalls is not going well. I can tell you doing the spire as a nightfall will be ZERO fun! PVE needs as much attention as PVP if not more.

I’ll give it a chance. But if it becomes stack after stack like the previous CBMM I’ll be done. We need CBMM solo queue.

The TWID showed that first, they laid off employee's now they are laying off players. They should expect more layoffs in 6 months.

To me, the TWID showed that Bungie was neither interested in tryna retain its current base nor tryna attract what they’ve lost. Yawn-worthy.

PvP looks good as long as they keep the incentives to play there for casuals. Catering to sweats or frequent enjoyers (of various skill like myself) is well and good, but we need to keep those player numbers up! New Sword is interesting (hopefully they buff Caster frames’ ammo economy) Kinetic Slot legendary Trace Rifle caught my attention real quick. Hopefully there’s a stasis one from the dungeon or something too. I’ll happily grind trials for that. Idk, looked pretty solid to me. Hopefully it delivers ;)

The trials changes in the twab still don’t incentivize me to play trials. Record is simply going to remain “no participation.”

[b]Casuals / Solo Players for PvP [/b] Until P2P is sorted, ie, upgraded to Regional Dedicated Servers, the lag / latency issues affecting PvP will still be present. As will ‘The Invincibles’…and the cronu$ / xim brigade. Trials - until an accumulated 7-wins over time regardless of losses along the way, happens, the relative handful of bounty / engram grinders will still be the only regular Casuals who will endure. Catering to the top 5% of PvP players will quickly reduce an already barren pool to a veritable mud hole. The focusing changes look attractive to some, ie, about 5%, but to the canon fodder, ie, Casual / Solo players, it’s just ridiculous. The 5% who could reach the Lighthouse with just a toothbrush don’t need any more special weapons with which to slay the cannon fodder; in fact, it’s quite the opposite, the cannon fodder need the better weapons to try beat the 5% with. CBMM / SBMM - see P2P comment above. Pandering to Stomper Crews - nah, Casuals / Solo players and other cannon fodder, simply stay away; ‘twas ever thus. Edited to add: Sparrow PvP - only if we get our horns back! 👈 Ease springs! 🫡

This TWID is all about the desperate times Bungie finds themselves in atm. Good luck to them because this 7 month season will tell all

Step 1: Trust Step 2: Retention Step 3: Revenue

TWID ?

I’ll know day one if the bullets register. If they don’t I’m throwing in the towel!

The PvP updates/ direction seemed good. Hopefully they can make all of those new ideas work well for the majority of players. Did you see, Sparrow Control!! How long before it’s 12 players just zooming around on sparrow’s without doing any shooting or capturing points. 😁
