I'm proud of you diet guys. I can't do it--I'm a terrible eater. I wanna eat all the things. One nice thing about putting on lbs on the farm is that my pigs won't judge me. They have no room to talk.



That's Slim Piggins with my wife there. :)
That's a pig? Thought it was some hippo tapir thing.

Not sure why they needed to replace shaxx bounties with bounties for Crimson doubles. Why not just add more bounties or use another npc to hand them out?

Probably memory limited, thank the 360 and PS3.

I'm fine with no content between releases, but Quality of Life should be a higher priority. There are so many low hanging fruit, but it's 6 people, so this is all we get.

Bungie is 98% major releases, 2% Live Game. Compared to last year 99% major releases, 1% Live game.

That's the real killer, give me regular quality of life and balance updates and I'm happy.

Kinda sad how small this is. Only like 4 new dances, 1 playlist, 1 quest and the only unique gear is ghosts.

Would have preferred this effort go into Quality of Life fixes and a more generous loot end game.
 
Looks like the update messed up some gear in the app. Cause I'll be really mad if my CB/PB/spray and play grasp turned into partial refund/guerilla fighter like it's telling me it has now.

Wow, these microtransactions sure are helping this live team.

Patch notes are very focused on low-impact refinements, for the most part. So far the promise of larger feature requests from the Live Team / MTX model is unfulfilled, but they probably take longer to build. Hopefully something more substantial arrives by spring.

I am very disappointed that the first event of the year is a 2v2 Crucible activity with no fireteam matchmaking. That last bit is really baffling to me - it will appeal to a subset of a subset of a subset of the population. It's "only" the Valentine's Day event, but Bungie chose to make an event out of it and it's awfully niche. I'm looking forward to some new stuffz in Destiny, be it rewards or activities, so I'll stay on the lookout, and return to puzzling over The Witness.

I wonder if they were sitting around a conference table thinking their doubles metrics were low, so voila. Hmmm

I know I kept telling myself not to get excited and I didn't, but this is still a letdown :(
