Bungie will at present give Destiny 2 a dose of vim and vigour in replace 1.1.4, nicknamed the Go Fast Update. It brings a broad unfold of adjustments geared toward making the sport sooner and making gamers really feel extra highly effective, together with growing motion pace, lowering respawn instances, and buffing weapons. More pace, extra oomph.
“We have heard the feedback of ‘My guns don’t feel powerful enough, I don’t feel powerful enough’ and so we looked at everything,” sandbox design lead Josh Hamrick mentioned in a dev video concerning the replace. “We looked at the way you move, the way your Supers come back, and especially the way the weapons play.”
Look over the tentative patch notes to get an thought of fairly how a lot is altering (remaining notes due over here later at present, I’d guess?). The next participant pace cap, sooner glides, faster Super cooldowns, sooner participant and ammo respawn instances within the Crucible, perk buffs, and weapon buffs with a specific give attention to shotguns, sniper rifles, and fusion rifles. The weapon adjustments are particularly nice for buffing underpowered weapons slightly than nerfing overpowered ones.
“In D1, people would have said–probably correctly–that means we would nerf those things. They’re nails that are sticking up out of the board and we would have hammered them back in to be even with the board,” Hamrick mentioned. “For this update, we did the opposite, we said ‘These things are hot, let’s bring everything else to them.’ And so we started raising each thing up, whether it be in PvE or PvP. We’ve also learned the lesson of don’t sand the coolness down, leave the jagged spikes of personality in there.”
The replace is because of launch actual quickly. Server maintenance will start at 5pm UK time then is scheduled to finish by 7pm, at which level the sport shall be again up and up to date.
Here, hear what else Hamrick needed to say concerning the new zip, pep, and zam:
