[quote][b]Stop ignoring player feedback[/b][/quote] Bungie: . . . No

They fired 300 people there is not enough left to read or care about forums

As long as people are buying crap from the eververse store they don't care. That's the only important thing to them.

Rampant negative feedback, without constructive criticism, as with most things in media has led the ones you are attempting to reach to have labeled you as "toxic" or some kinda phobic. Ergo any and all feedback no is deleted automatically upon arrival and thrown away. Did we do this to our selves? Yes and no. Just look at these forums, if you try and be positive or constructive you will be down voted into oblivion. Such things have no place here it would appear. We are to simply complain and that's it. Are developers justified in ignoring it? No. Its part of their job. The job of a developer is to make a game players want to play, that attracts them. First you have to attract, then, you can squeeze a bit and see if they run. If they do, loosen up, they might come back.

Here’s a hard pill to swallow, most feedback is bad feedback

Must be new here. Remember there listening but not doing anything players enjoy doing.

I think they should don santa suits and read our posts on twitch during their christmas breaks. And they should do it drunk so we can get some transparency. But seriously, this is kind of a strange time to be expecting a ton of communication. Also, a lot of normal people don't respond to certain levels of vitriol. Shouldn't be too much of a surprise. Plus they do respond if you listen really hard.

A couple of things: First, as much as people like to lay this entirely at one man's feet, screwing up this badly takes a true team effort, and nobody at Bungie gets to shrug this off as 'not their problem'. We are all of us, you, me, Bungie, responsible for the quality of our own work. As bad as any manager is, there isn't one in history that ever ordered someone to produce poor work. Secondly, Hello Games didn't do all of that out of the kindness of their hearts; they got absolutely crucified in the press and on social media and Sony threw them very firmly under the bus, blaming the whole thing on Sean Murray making outrageous claims that he couldn't live up to (despite having a Sony PR person in the same room for every single interview correcting him at every turn). For them, it was a matter of survival, because Sony certainly weren't helping, and they achieved it by absolutely NOT listening to the community (going totally dark and radio silent for nearly two years). It was a mass of negative sentiment and a matter of financial survival (along with personal pride) that led to the turnaround Hello Games produced, and they did it because they ALL took responsibility.

It will only improve when if the player counts keep dropping. Even the destiny twitch streamer chats ask them to play other games cause Destiny is boring now
