Another nearly two weeks on and some proper observations. 1. Still a major issue with bullet registration. Far too many gunfights where I shoot first and I just get straight melted. I’ve gone and watched the theatre and replays and it shows that I am on target and it just doesn’t register the shot. This is down to a number of issues but it brings me on to my next point 2. Lobbies. For the love of god stop putting me in lobbies where I am facing people from Mexico, America, Australia and fucking Pingu from Antarctica! Are you seriously telling me there is no one in the UK trying to play this game?? 3. Score based match making (SBMM). Right this has to be one of the dumbest ideas implemented for the casual gamer. If I wanted to be red bull chugging aderall popping scuf jumping 16 year old who thinks he is the next Scump then I would go play ranked or game battles. That’s the fucking reason they are in the game. What I want is a lobby of randomly selected people Sometimes I will get shit on and sometimes I will shit on. You take your chances. I take little enjoyment at the moment of game after game of having to try my absolute nuts off just to have a vaguely decent game. Mr condrey can say it isn’t there but when if I play solo I’m barely scraping positive and when I join with a shitter mate suddenly I’m in lobbies where people don’t have thumbs then there has to be something there. 4. SMGs. Need a buff. Nothing major but when it loses to a fn42 or bar at close range that isn’t right. 5. Removal of the pick 10 system in my mind was a massive step back. I really miss being able to select different perks and customise my setup and half of my ribbon things have remained locked in this current prestige because they are utter shite. Enjoyment levels just aren’t there when I jump on for a quick game at the moment. I’ll try to think of some more but I’m fucking knackered

I have had issues with the way D2 was implemented from day one. Maybe I played it wrong, maybe I didn't do the right thing, but the whole game seemed to be 1) Complete missions - hit skill wall 2) Grind public events. (usually the walker one on titan) 3) Continue missions - hit skill wall 4) Grind public event. 5) Complete story. 6) Grind public event. 7) Complete Raid. I haven't got any particular desire to get any gun or armour. I couldn't tell you the name of any single piece of gear I'm using, because I just don't care, I'll get another thing 1 point higher and it will go. The DLC story started out really well, but lost its way and fizzled out a bit.

Nice to see someone telling it how it is. He may lose his future event invites like many others who criticised Bungie publically in the past but it must hit home either in the studio or at Activision that the brand is in utter disarray for a multitude of reasons and a lot of people have had enough. It's usually publishers that fuck up AAA games like this, especially Activision but in this instance Bungie have had the budget, they've had the timeframe and they have the software to create a generation-defining product. They have not done that and what they've chrurned out is painfully appalling with the resources available. The content lockout and XP scaling saga just added insult to injury from Bungie and I question whether they deseve the right to make another game after this terrible effort.
