Furious Destiny 2 players beg Bungie to reconsider \u201ccasual\u201d Witch Queen changes ActivisionBungie just revealed the first batch of significant Destiny 2 gameplay changes planned for The Witch Queen expansion and Guardians are already fuming over the more \u201ccasual\u201d tweaks. With The highly anticipated Witch Queen expansion on the way to Destiny 2, players are eagerly awaiting one of the biggest content drops to date. While an official reveal is still a ways off, Bungie recently touched on some of the fundamental gameplay changes on the horizon. Just about every subclass is changing to some extent and even general abilities are being fine-tuned as well. It\u2019s the latter that caught the attention of the Destiny player base. Before long, many top content creators and experienced Guardians were lashing out over the \u201ccasual\u201d adjustments. Namely, sliding is set to take a huge hit in the Witch Queen update. Weapons will be less accurate and flinch will be even more noticeable when sliding in the near future. In light of this change, among others, players were quick to let Bungie know their displeasure. https:\/\/twitter.com\/WishYaLuckk\/status\/1423353779592761347 The full list of changes revealed on August 6 had many concerned about the wavering level of skill in PVP specifically. These gameplay tweaks may come as a result of \u201ccasual players finding it too hard to slide and engage,\u201d content creator WishYaLuckk stressed. \u201cThe slide change seems really silly,\u201d fellow Destiny veteran Gigz chimed in. \u201cIf it wasn\u2019t random pellet spread, I would be on board.\u201d Instead, a new element of randomization further reduces the Crucible\u2019s skill ceiling. \u201cThe continued nerf to movement tech, the overall slowing down of the game, and the constant reduction in skill gap across all elements of the game, is really the kinda stuff that makes me wanna play Destiny a lil more these days,\u201d Gladd said sarcastically.

Therefore, these Witch Queen adjustments will impact the flow of PVE gameplay as well. \u2013 Any time a player receives an exotic in a raid, all fireteam members also receive the exotic + 2500 Vanguard tokens. \u2013 If a player lands 3 sniper headshots in the crucible, their next shot will hit for immune to keep things fair.\u2014 Gladd (@Gladd) August 6, 2021 There\u2019s still plenty of time before the new season kicks off. This could leave room for a few last-minute changes in response to the backlash. Though there\u2019s also every chance the latest wave of frustration falls on deaf ears too. More in-depth blog posts are set for the following weeks. Bungie already teased more intricate looks at armor and weapon changes on the way.
