Anyone playing Destiny?

It's really frustrating when the base gameplay is so good and works so well that Activision and Bungie are choosing to give two fingers to the community. When I first played Destiny and got hooked I was expecting changes thick and fast, the game engine is clearly very capable so it wouldn't take much to rejig the content and add more dynamic spawning to give the game a bit more variety particularly when you see how well it handles the mass enemy spawns that come out of nowhere on patrol.

To expect £20 for a bit of rejigging is a complete joke though, I was expecting that sort of thing for free to keep people playing now and then some entirely new content for the DLC. I agree of course about Atheon, being able to push him off was a bug that needed fixed but even if the teleporting was supposed to be random it clearly worked better the original way and to completely ignore the reasonable comments from the community justifying the non-random teleporting was very poor.

On the plus side though the weekly Nightfall gave me a Suros Regime which I've been fancying as a change to the pistol/scout rifle I normally use.

Finally level 26 - I need some vanguard marks and ALOT of Helium Filaments and I will be 27 in no time.

Level 28! Completed the VoG three times now, done it in an hour and half now.

I just need A LOT of shards - then I will be mid 29!

Massively back into this.

I have the gear to be 30 - I just stopped playing when the content was so repetitive and monotonous I couldn't be bothered anymore, which was just before the Iron Banner, however I did that to get my gloves and stopped playing again. Will be playing some point this week with the "expansion", the only thing I seem to be doing on the game is raiding every Friday now, that's about it.

No matter what level I get to it seems everyone else is always 3-4 levels higher.

Completed the first raid with 4 of us last week.

1 of which had never done it and was left alone when we you get transported.

I bought it and loved it - for a while.

The graphics and game mechanics are great. The story is neither here nor there. The story is pretty short.

If you have plenty of friends to play it with it will keep you occupied for a few weeks/months. If you're playing solo, it's pretty tedious.

One you'e done the main story, levelling up consists of repeating the same few tasks over and over again in the hope of getting the materials you need. Simply not enough variation of things to do.

The raid was amazing the first time we did it - but coordinating to get 6 people online together for several hours wasn't easy. Beyond the first time it's just rinse and repeat each week. I thought there would be new raids each week but no.

DLC has just released at £20 for 3 story missions, 1 raid and 1 strike - in terms of my play that amounts to about 8 hours of content, so totally not worth the money for me, especially as it reuses old locations and doesn't really bring anything new.

Anyone ele have this problem. I am using xbox 360.

The small downloads (seem daily now) used to take seconds, now take 5-10 minutes. Fine from 0-40% seconds, then drag on to 60%, then zip off to end?
