25+ Things Destiny Players CAN’T Stand 

Destiny players can’t stand Destiny

I've been saying for YEARS that we need an emblem that tracks the number of times we've been killed by drop pods

Being smashed by a Cabal Drop pod is just the discount version of being smashed/sent to orbit by a Warsat.

There is a hidden mechanic for enemy's 'fear' or 'resolve' and determines if they'll withdraw from combat and seek cover. Apparently this modifier is called 'clowns' because a Bungee developer recommended the previous symbol (skulls or ghosts) be changed because "everyone is afraid of clowns". So every time those annoying acolytes or dredge take cover its because they're terrified of the Guardian and their clown count is probably maxed out after you just bodied that knight/captain with a finisher.

One thing I hate is finally getting a catalyst for an exotic I use to drop and then find out it's requirement is 100+ pvp kills when I'm strictly a pve player.

Surprised "my character refusing to mantle, even if it meant saving themselves from dying" didn't make the list. That happens so often to me x')

7:34 Still wish that you could play Strikes on your own. Sorta like how the Haunted Forest in past Festivals of the Lost had a 'firewalled' version that disables matchmaking and let's you either load in on your own or with at least one other person. If Strikes, even in the playlist, allowed for that then I'd enjoy the Strikes so much more. It'd just be so nice to able to take things at your own pace rather than rushing ahead and trying to keep up with your team.

most of my gripes are movement based. -If the ground its 100% level, when I try to jump it ends up pushing me backwards, making me jump back. I have died plenty of times in missions because of that. Even if I was running forward, it still happens. -Changes in the level of the floor. If there's a section of the ground that juts upward, to add texture to the area, and it's more than 1 inch difference, Guardians cannot step up automatically, and must jump to move. It's really annoying in the 'Insight Terminus'. I'm constantly getting caught up on the bricks on the floors, especially when backing away while firing at the charging war beasts and getting stopped by the rock that's less tall than a step, and get stuck on it. It's like Guardians don't have knees. Anything else I can give it up to chance. But movement issues that just aren't logical frustrate me to no end.

I can say with utmost confidence I don't know how to make at least half of the public events heroic and I have been playing since d1 launch

I personally would add the frequent poor melee hit registration.. especially in pvp, where you lose a melee fight because the game doesn't acknowledge your melee hitting the other player..

I underatand the Thing with the droppods but can't resist a little giggle. Imagine you're a semi god that crushed a whole legion of cabal and then *bonk* 😂😂

Something is missing here: The fact that you HAVE TO DO PvP activities in order to complete weapon catalysts. A huge pain for those of us who are not going to set even one foot into the crucible.

Remember those adventures we had back in Destiny 2. Thkse were actially fun and I got a bit sad when they removed them acfter Beyond Light.

If there's one thing I can't stand, it is Players starting Savathun's Spire or Altar of Summoning without giving me the chance to draw a card. I also can't stand when players are always going ahead of everyone else without letting the others catch up. It's like they only care about themselves. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL EVERYONE IS READY BEFORE JUMPING IN!!!

One of my nitpicks are the armor ornaments. Specifically how there is no quick way to equip whole armor sets you posses. Instead you have to place each ornament piece one gear at a time.

3:16 , the reverse is true as well. As a blueberry you know you can't handle the hardest difficulty but there will be a guy on Guardian level 9-11 who goes in and starts it anyway thinking he can pull it off alone.😂

My suggestion for rockets and cabal drop pods is they’ll always leave you at 1HP regardless so you can’t die to them anymore.

when players are ahead, rally the banner, and then go into the encounter and dont let you rally... 💀

Everytime I have a speed runner in strikes just so happens to be when I'm farming catalyst progress and man is it anoying.

I miss flash points: where the heroic public events were relevant.

Players turning up to a GM without at least one weapon to deal with champions is absolutely infuriating

Dungeon/Raid boss rooms always having some pit of death. I mean, why? Why are some pits super specific in their locations? Idk how many times I've died to "falling" into holes like those in the Persys boss room in Spire of the Watcher, especially when they are not deep at all. I get that they can be used to restart an encounter, but they don't make much sense on a practical standpoint at times.

oh yes the shaders thing i always wonder why jacarina have blue parts where preview does not. many shaders have confused me this way

For PvE I absolutely hate the random teleporting enemies bug and the frame-rate being tied to damage dealt and received For PvP it's the abysmal hit registration especially on anything melee-realted

The limited vault space is my biggest issue, tbh. I like unique things and stuff I worked hard for to be there. But tough choices have to be made. UGH! Thanks for the video.

This has to be the calmest rant I have ever heard and it's pretty scary

I've been playing since early October and had no idea heroic events didn't just randomly trigger 🥺 My bad 😬

I try to make Public Events Heroic when I can, but I've only got a few down to memory as to how to do it. Cabal driller: Shoot the Thresher down. Imperator Valus: Break the vents on the side. Glimmer extraction: Break the things holding up the extractor. Ether Supply: Destroy the Servitors that spawn after the first shield. After that, I don't know how to trigger each Heroic event.

Glad you mentioned the corrupted strike. I absolutely hate it, especially on nightfall. Yet every season there it is.

As a blink user, the slight decline in the wrong spot, or slight raised ledges like curbs before an iffy blink. That slight decline can mean the difference between a hop off the ground or a surprise blink straight off a ledge. Those tiny curbs! 😡

You play Ring Around the Rosey with an enemy around cover. Orges/Wizards that fire like a VERY FAST/ACCURATE MACHINE GUN

#22 is my absolute biggest pet peeve. ESPECIALLY for the Taken blight event, because you can't even argue that pushing it heroic it makes it take longer. I've completed the taken blight in literally 45 seconds. All you need is 2 people with ok damage output and it's just finished. Don't understand why I almost never see people do this one correctly.

I dont hate eververse, I just hate aspects of it, like how you can buy something for 700 silver on a monday, and the next day its 1200 bright dust, meaning you wasted $5 and the fomo that is created, some items literally show up once and never come back, some are in the shop almost weekly, its not very fun when I have to wait a whole month for a Chance to get a new shader that looks good.

The heroic public event definitely makes me mad

I think a big one for me is whenever I have to LFG a group And I see a post that says “KWTD” and I get the impression I’m hopping in with a competent team only to find out they need your knowledge of the activity because they do not know what to do…

2:40 Actually, I find their duplication helpful in making sure my heavy ammo finder gets a chance to drop bricks. The more easy enemies, the better armed I'll be. It's a net positive in higher difficulties.

Crota pendulums having a hitbox larger than the pendulum itself...

Solo flawless prophecy when the psion spawns were accelerated to an ungodly level with the psions was the worst.

The shader thing not looking at all what the 4 colors in the box represent is my biggest issue. I get it, some armor has metal or material, and in the real world it would look different (I guess). But, still frustrating.

You really thought I wouldn’t see that sick sparrow flip 6:30

"Talk to me not of the darkness I want no part"..............Rahool for the 50 millionth time.

UI.. all of it. Placement, size, organization, scrolling, descriptions, buffa, debuffs. Heroic events? Can I see HOW I can trigger them? Champions priority buffs disabling others. Exotic weapons for certain champions not getting a buff from seasonal mod for another type of champion. Disabling the weapons in loudouts (u can add green or blue weapons from collection and salvage them later but its tedious and not good when u want to make changes later), whole idea of progression system and stat rolls (and those 52 Xur armors xd)

Wait Heroic Public Events have triggers? I thought they just happen randomly per chance or when a certain amount of players is nearby

That thumbnail makes me want a jotun cosmetic that turns the projectile into a cabal drop pod

One I can’t stand is just the psion boop nade. Sometimes it’s completely unnoticed and boops you into the air without any good control making you completely vulnerable or smash your head into the ceiling doing more damage than it should leaving you vulnerable again. Another good one is players killing everything with crazy builds or over powered stuff in the lower level stuff while you have like 7 bounties in the thing you’re doing they are ruining. I have had to run 3 extra strikes sometimes because when I try to get head shots or ability kills or certain weapon kills everything is already dead. And by the end I have not even a fifth of the bounty done.

Where is that artwork of Ikora and the hunter on the hill from at 4:24? I'd love to use that as my background!

For me it's PvP I don't play a huge amount but when I do what really annoying is spawn camping

Enemy "merry go round" "Icy" floors. "Bouncy ball" physics. Ledges that don't allow you to mantle

Keep up the great vids man

My personal list: >When you exit your vault and enter your character menu too quickly, anything you try to equip will get deposited in the bank despite the vault menu having closed. I fucking hate this, and on bad days, these little inconveniences go from irritating to infuriating. >bungo's error code descriptions always say that the problem is on your end. No, there's no chance at all that anything could ever go bad on their end! It must be your fault! >Getting dc'd actually screws up my internet momentarily. It's like their netcode is so aggressively bad that it gives you a disease. I have never experienced anything like this in all the years I've played online games. >bungo's netcode and matchmaking is something I'd have expected from GameSpy in 2001. It's significantly inferior to Halo 2. You don't need bridgers when the literal company boots everyone from the server. The last time I was dc'd this much from any one service was with AOL in 199-fucking-7! >Why can't they stick all of the multiplayer things in one menu? Clan, fireteam, nearby players, etc. The fact that there's no simple menu button to leave or disband a fireteam is a failure of UI development. >For some reason, I can't use my /join code to invite people to my fireteam. Everything is set to public, and it never works. What the actual fuck is this? >How many loading screens can one game have? There's the initial loading screen that takes you to the title screen. Then there's the sign-in loading screen that's followed by another loading that seems like it'd be the last one, but that's just a fake-out. You don't get to the final loading screen until the morphing class symbol is in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. >Ah and with load times, I haven't had to wait this long since Bloodborne at release. WoW, GW2, SWTOR, Warframe, FFXIV, Destiny 1 - none of them had load times like Destiny 2. >There's no compass. Every game has some kind of basic navigation. Even Halo 1 had a little compass on the Assault Rifle. >You have to click on clanmates' names to see what they're doing. This could've easily been put on the hover text box, but they didn't. This is just one among many things that waste a second or two of your time here and there but eventually add up to a mess of UI navigation. >Let me customize my character's physical appearance. Let me give my characters names. How lazy do you have to be to not have this as a day 1 feature? >Give me unlimited loadout slots, or let me use DIM when I'm not in orbit or the Tower. This one is just a fucking insult. >Why are there even vault terminals? Why can't I access my vault from orbit? As far as I know, that function was always available in Warframe. Also, there was a portable mailbox with a cooldown in WoW, and it was FIFTEEN FUCKING YEARS AGO! >And last but not least: I want to play the Red War campaign. I want to visit the Tangled Shore. I want to do all the things that the NPC's constantly talk about while idle. I started this game late, and every reference to something I can never experience continues to drive home the message that this game does not want newcomers. I WANT TO PLAY THE GAME AND NOT FUCKING WATCH IT ON 5 YEAR-OLD BYF VIDEOS!

14. Here's your solution. Get in close, short hop and MELEE. That's it. Him stomp, you smack. You go nowhere. No yeet. No space program. Hop melee when uncharged can sometimes close small gaps between you and a targetable enemy for a smack. Usually go on a slap rampage. (tbh, this is probably something a hunter would do) 7. And then when you reflex it back into the menu, to be kicked out again, and you keep reflexing back in, to be kicked out...again, that's gets old fast. Just let me dismantle the trash gear :V 8. I try to force the UI to stay up sometimes. I don't really get the 'locked out of sparrow', more 'vehicle in cooldown' since it almost always gets destroyed. I always just re-summon it after getting off of it. Mostly because yeet it off a cliff or ditched it, but I find that's faster to just re-summon than trying to find it or climbing back on. 9. Yeah, I don't see a reason for ALWAYS DARKNESS ZONE when there isn't an active encounter going on. I get it for highest level shit I'll never bother doing, not for normal runs. 16. I don't touch this, so can't relate. 17. For Corrupted, try to take the orb into the ascendant plane. If you can manage that, and hit her with it early in, you can finish her earlier than usual. Game tries to take the orb away, but it's more about timing of when you pick up the orb. For Arms Dealer, I've climbed the chain of the elevator and forced a Joining Allies trigger, cutting a few seconds off being shot at while taking a stroll through an obstacle course full of rocks. 18. They haven't even tried making the past seasonal ornaments available. -Over here with no Valkyrian Hood ornament cause job & burnout always gets in the way- 19. Why isn't storage 777? They expect us to have 3 guardians, but share all the same space between them. 20. ::Everything is gone.:: You can't even PLAY the original base D2 as a standalone campaign. Used to be Ikora had a rotating weekly(or was it daily?) campaign mission that one could replay. Some very stupid things done there obviously. Hence why people like D1 since that's all STILL THERE. Past content should've been relegated & contained to a separate, 'legacy' launcher, specifically for past story content. Gear & content being scaled to match the current 'light level'/artificial difficulty. Obviously, don't let it go online completely, as to avoid the multiplayer aspect, but mainly focus on letting players have their campaign story & lore & missions. Let them pursue missing items from their Collection page by completing the tasks to get them to drop; re-rolled & waiting at the postmaster if they've since been refreshed. Obviously no exotic drops; unless it's story specific, completion rewards resources first time only 21. Yep. As much as the old layout was awkward, I prefer that over the current 'layout', as it's complete shit. I prefer my bounties having more displayed per 'page' 22. It's not new players doing this. It's been those rank 10's and higher doing that shit. I'm over there trying for more gunsmith bounties, they're only in for completion count. ...what even IS the heroic trigger for that? it's going in the bubble, coming out and shooting the blight, right? (I've never been the one to trigger it) 24. There's been dialog I rarely hear from some of the people, something about if they even exist to us, or something to that effect.

I would add: - ankles made out of glass - hopgoblins godmode - 5 min tower loading (occasional) - joining almost lost PvP match - joining PvP match during the enemy's super phase - overloaded postmaster - overloaded vault - hunters That's from top of my head 😉

Forced weapon selection regaring to champions

Lately I've noticed a bug with my custom button layout. Sometimes, even though my charged melee is fully charged, somehow when I long press the RB button it just won't do my charged melee. It's not a controller issue, I'd definitely know the difference lol. But when I double press RB to do a normal melee, only after doing so apparently the charged melee works. This happens once in a while while playing. Luckily it never happened during a raid or GM. But I reckon someone should take a look at this.

Depicted on the thumbnail: when destiny 2 teabags you.

11:01 this here struck me and my nerves with the sheer amount of players that would rush and/or ruin the set-up for heroic public events. especially when farming for glimmer as it cost more in the next season

The most difficult alters of summoning tier is about the same damage scale as a GM or a master raid imo. Maybe it’s just my RNG but it’s been a while since I’ve seen the inverted spire strike. It rarely ever appears anymore. I get more battlegrounds, Scarlett keep and corrupted strikes more than anything which are the most time consuming

Fallen hiding behind objects? Must be taking queues from "elite" players in Crucible / Trials of Osiris. For Eververse, I must be the only guardian who has no issue with this. I have never spent even 1 silver in Eververse and likely will never but imagine being so far removed from reality that you would tell a company not to charge fof the art it creates.

Whenever I run prison of elders, I run around and trip all the mines so that by the time the enemies spawn in they’ve exploded

Teleporting enemies is even worse when its not even the enemies themselves that are teleporting but the server doing it for them. 'Oh you knocked this enemy here, well our scripting says he's not suppose to be there so let's just teleport him back up there.' sometimes it's not even that but what appears to be horrid rubberbanding that makes zero sense when the enemy disappears from in front of you and appears halfway across the map. Real fun.

2:20 one of my biggest hates as a solar hunter who uses celestial nighthawk. You dont know how many supers I have missed because of teleporting enemies

The most annoying thing are these taken hogoblins void mini rockets, the taken cabal shield and the thresher i think its called like this, or this cabal airplane you cant debuff them really and the solar mini rockets are also so annoying, the hydra void thing and what is also annoying you cant slide jump and the slides are so unrealistic no matter how it goes downhill your slide is still very short and slow.

You can scan players to see what they are equipped with. And you can even see what shaders they are using.

Could someone tell me what armor appears on the thumbnail please?

7:13 Im a titan who is bad for doing the same kinda thing. Im literally just out of a strike (the corrupted) where I sword skate through anything that isnt in my way (and it doesnt even have eager edge.. my god, could you image XD). The only time I really notice it is in this strike, where I can pull people over and over again to the next section while theyre still dealing with the section or two before me. I do feel bad... no, I wont stop doing it (but I do feel bad) :P XD 8:48 Yayyy there it is!

I lost volunteer on how many times a Cabell drop pod killed me, but man it felt good killing cabel with one in the light-filled campain

It's already been pointed out, but, to reiterate it, it's ludicrous that one can jump a canyon, or 20' in the air, but, a simple lip in the floor can't be stepped over without a jump, that is outright stupid

When you fall 1 foot below the edge of a cliff, even though your hunter jump could have gotten you back up

The ogre blasts knocking out of a well or a rift…or off beams in shattered throne is super annoying

I'm definitely guilty of going back into orbit when Corrupted is the strike.😂

Aside from the Bungie season vaulting and eververse and those random error messages, I hardly ever experience the ones listed, I don't know why Bungie removed/vaulted D2 content and bring in stuff from D1, it doesn't feel like Destiny anymore Like they brought back the Cosmodrome from D1 but restricted areas of it that you can't access without being in a strike, the Rocketyard is an example, to go there you have to play "The Devil's Lair" strike And it's like they're replacing the D2 stuff that they vaulted and bringing stuff back from D1 like all of the D1 raids

Came back to find out the final shape is delayed but there’s a pretty good season thing . I played last season too and thought it was pretty good . We all just hope everything works out . Even if the final shape is the last we see of destiny I d say it’s been a good ride for me personally 👍

Another one annoying thing is not working raid ,dungeon autofill and legendary levels like spire in witch season right now.

i find the random miss adventure deaths piss me off the most.

i feel after the physics change that made it so phalanxes can't kill you anymore with their bash that it's a lot more funny than frustrating

I see threshers as a challenge in parkour skills. If I can get atop it, I can aggressively stab it with a glaive until it dies.

11:05 in defense of the new lights (myself not included). Not everyone knows how to activate the heroic event.

OMG YES! the drop pods ALWAYS land on ME. I know I should be better at avoiding them. but it ALWAYS happens.

One of the most annoying things for me is when you’re trying to revive a team mate but there’s a relic on the ground, and your player picks up the relic first. Then you have to wait a second or 2 before Revive pops up again. Why even do that? There should be some kind of action hierarchy for situations like that. Prioritise Revives over Relics and prioritise Relics over energy balls. But no, you try to revive your team mate and become a dead guardian on top of another dead guardian.

I'm sorry but the scorn are unbelievably annoying sometimes. Raiders and (sometimes) lurkers? Fine. Chieftains? Okay, but the little mechanism get tedious. Abominations? How on earth are they allowed to snipe me from across the map without missing literally ever?

6:10 oh golly i sure can't wait to play this nightfall *Splat*

You forgot one The "you cant respawn after 20-40 seconds is over" This happened to me many times in nightfalls Some people revive me well othess ignore me and blame me for not responding even tho i pressed X alot

Risk Runner in that 1st lost Sector tears those taken up!

Wyverns are more annoying that scorpius turrets imo

1) Duplicate Eververse engram rewards! (Bungoo I'm trying to complete my ship inventory here! But you always give me those ugly shaders, ghosts and sparrows... that I already have!!!) 2) Blue berries expects a revive in the open world 3) Blue berries destroying your sparrow in the open world 4) opening your inventory after a ritual activity but Bungoo always cancels your screen! 5) Xur's below 60 armor stats 6) Vanguard vendor's below 60 focused armor stats 7) Last Wish: 2 secret chests constant armor drops

you forgot a few: wyverns, unneeded immunity phases, immune bosses that walk around and blast your ass into oblivion (cough spire of the watcher cough)

Some strikes are 15 minutes. Some as long as 45 minutes.

For EV they should make it to where you can focus engrams and can’t get replicates of things you already have outside of glimmer.

I believe the proper term to getting crushed by a cabal drop pod is “Meat-balled”. Atleast that’s what me and my friends have called it forever. Also the player edge swording through a strike is super annoying. It’s like relax bro we are all gonna get there. You don’t have to be first. They usually are the first to go down. My super petty pet peeve is finisher stealers. You’ve been working on this champion by yourself and are about to put the final blow on it and poof some blueberry comes in with a finisher after not helping at all. Annoys me everytime.

Here’s one people using graviton lance and sunshot in casual activities while I am trying to grind my gunsmith and vanguard bounties for off meta gear and abilities.

The rocket one gets me red . No idea why when u standing in a well u want to move all over the place for no reason

I don’t mind threshers anymore. Knowing I can just aim at the barrel of their cannon and keep shooting their rockets out of the air and kill them without taking damage anymore. Also I don’t mind exploder shanks they help take out their own team if you pay attention.

I'm just tired of buying a season pass and then not being able to earn the seasonal armor ornaments because with my family, I'm a part time player at best. I can get behind keeping a top tier weapon or something at level 100 in the seasonal rewards but the armor ornaments? Those can be at like level 50.

Getting kicked from a raid party because of somebody’s screw up and/or never doing a raid before

All exotics (not raid ones) not in the general loot pool

YOU missed 1 when two people use their super at the same time on the last bar of health in a boss fight

I hate large empty spaces that won’t let you sparrow. Running forward like it’s a lord of the rings movie.

I hate that some environmental details are physically there and some are just visually there. And small details on the ground will make you run in place instead of letting you run across like you run up steps.

Another thing i cant stand is heist battleground moon where they made the active enemy surge all void and then decided how it would be funny to make half of the damn enemies in the level all scorn raiders with crossbows

A vault search/sort by weapon type would be ideal for me. Of course not having an LFG in destiny is my biggest issue. having to sign up on a different sites just lazy development.
