Why does no one play anymore?

Yea I want to be in on this clan war. I have a ton of friends playing Destiny, idk that game never did anything for me.

I've been playing Destiny more lately, but that was kind of by design. I played CoD Ghosts waaaaay to much last summer and fall. Especially doing every Clan War. I needed a break. So i took one. I am hoping if I go a little slower this time, ease more into CoD, I won't burn out again. So that said, I plan on playing CoD more over the holidays. And every clan war.

As far as Destiny, that has pulled A LOT of people away from CoD. MANY people. But that game is running into issues now. The DLC content is pretty much over and the game is now slipping into what is essentially a dog-chasing-its-own-tail grindfest. Far worse than anything CoD has ever done. Bungie recently took the levels and work of all one did, ...and pretty much made everyone start over. Completely stupid. I know I am not going to bother with doing 90% of what I did before. Who wants to go spend another six hours leveling up a gun you've already finished once? I don't. But the game is sick like that, in forcing people to do so. It's become a huge time sink with nothing to show for it. The most recent DLC raid has also become a cheap glitchfest. As you can tell, the most recent DLC burned me out.

We'll get a few groups together this weekend for the clan war. I would love to try and organize it more, send out mass emails, rally people, but it all seems pointless. One, we have a ton of people still on the XBox360 side who just can't be coordinated with. And even more troublesome, Felix Gallo, Rudy and the rest of them are fucking idiots. They allow a mechanism for setting active vs non-active...but then last clan war, it didnt' even work. Non-active people's wins were counting. Why? What's the point? I have tweeted them numerous times to get answers, and they don't answer. Right now, the people at Beachhead are completely inept and have no clue what they are doing. It feels like a trainwreck.

Hopefully things improve. Either way, these initial Clan Wars are scrub wars. If BeachHead follows the same pattern, they are just qualifying events like last year. Win two of the first five/six wars...and you then qualify for Diamond. THAT is where the real action/intensity starts. Right now? Play, have fun, and hopefully we win two of these scrub wars. We already have one 1st under our belts.

All that negativity said, we did win our first Clan War. Yeah.

Good post stone. Very true about destiny fun game but it's heading in the wrong direction no doubt.

Swain I know what your talking about. There will be more then 3-4 on for clan wars and I expect to see more as they get burned out on the limitless grind fest that destiny is pushing us toward.

I stopped playing because I have found this to be the least enjoyable CoD made so far. I don't care for the hyper movement, don't like the majority of the maps, and find the hit detection to be unreliable at best. I'll play agsin at dome point, but not sure when.

Also, I personally disagree on Destiny. I still enjoy. Every long term game is a grind. CoD is no different to me. I don't mind grinding as long as it is fun. I certainly wish there was more content, but I still enjoy the game. Personal preference for sure. And I like the grind better when you actually get something for it (loot). The DLC reset is just like prestiging in CoD. You lose progress, but then keep moving up. And the reset is pretty standard fare for the MMO model they are vaguely following.
