This week at Bungie, we delivered Masterworks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Update 1.1.1.1 introduced more than just a few extra 1s to the version number. There are some new ways to invest in your favorite weapons, overhauls to vendors, new ways to gift rewards to your fireteam, and more. The Patch Notes can be found right here<\/a>. Give them a read, and see if any of them address things you\u2019ve been talking about\u2014or wishing for secretly.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

These are some of the first significant changes to the player experience that are based on your feedback. Iterating on Destiny has always been a process that involves you, and that process will continue. We have more updates to Destiny 2 planned for the New Year. Once January arrives, we\u2019ll talk about what we have planned for the next one. And then for the one after that.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, your voice is a welcome addition to this conversation. If you\u2019re talking about Destiny, we\u2019re listening. More importantly, we\u2019re adding features and content to the game.<\/p>\n

Origin Story<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\n

Next week, we\u2019re launching a webcomic series, starting with an Osiris and Ikora origin story, \u201cFall of Osiris.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Margaret Stohl<\/strong>, Destiny 2 Narrative Director (who currently writes Marvel\u2019s The Mighty Captain Marvel<\/em>) notes:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cDestiny\u2019s first-ever original comic short is written by Eisner-winning, New York Times<\/em>\u00a0bestselling writer Ryan North (Dinosaur Comics<\/em>, Marvel\u2019s The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl<\/em>) in collaboration with our own super talented Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris narrative lead Christine Thompson, with interior art by Destiny community fan favorite Z\u00e9 Carlos. Here\u2019s a peek at the cover, by Marcio Takara (All-New Wolverine<\/em>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Osiris was once the champion of the Last City. Vanguard Commander. Seeker of secrets and discoverer of wonders. And then everything changed. How did Osiris go from hero to traitor?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coming soon, for free, on Bungie.net!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Before the Dawn<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The celebration of a new Golden Age is about to arrive at the Tower\u2014and the Farm.<\/p>\n

Check out<\/a> what you\u2019ll find in Destiny 2 as it becomes a winter wonderland.<\/div>\n

Adding without Subtracting<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Earlier this week, we updated this same blog with some notes on how we intend to handle expansions differently going forward. You should read \u2019em<\/a>. Essentially, our goals are to continue adding new challenges to Destiny, and to keep old challenges relevant without taking them away from anyone. It\u2019s a delicate balance, and we intend to do a better job of striking it.<\/div>\n

In the most immediate version of the future, that means making changes to Faction Rallies and Iron Banner so that they include everyone, no matter their level of investment in new content. We\u2019ll talk to you more about that work as it gets done. These events will come back very soon, and they\u2019ll be available to all.<\/p>\n

Argos Defeated<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Last week, the race to World\u2019s First was held for the “Leviathan, Eater of Worlds” raid lair. The unexpected happened, and we\u2019d like to congratulate the rag-tag team of Guardians who conquered their new foe with speed, grace, and deadly coordination. Not only did this fireteam form up the evening before the raid lair went live, their quick troubleshooting and in-game skill led them to take the crown. You can hear their reaction to earning the title here<\/a>.<\/div>\n
Additionally, we\u2019d like to give props to the Traveller of Guardians<\/a> clan for their completion of the raid lair. This fireteam consisted of six deaf players, communicating via video chat to troubleshoot the puzzles laid before them, leading to the defeat of Argos.\u00a0<\/div>\n

These reactions are pure gold, and fantastic examples of what the teams at Bungie wish to create: unforgettable experiences, with new friends or old. Cheers to all who have made it through the Eater of Worlds.<\/p>\n

As always, thanks for playing.<\/p>\n

To All a Good Night<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is the last weekly address on Bungie.net for 2017. The conversation about Destiny 2 won\u2019t stop, but the blog is being laid down for a long winter\u2019s nap. Communication will continue on our forums and social media, where it can happen faster and from anywhere our holiday travels take us. We\u2019ll be reading your feedback about the Dawning. We\u2019ll be calling the shots for the live game. We\u2019ll be addressing issues if they arise.<\/p>\n

Here are some places where you can make your voice heard.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be back on the blog upon the conclusion of the Dawning to put the next conversation on your radar. We\u2019ll even celebrate the triumphant return of Cozmo to the front lines! I won\u2019t be disappearing, mind you. Now that I\u2019ve taken a turn at the CM lectern, I\u2019ll be a more visible member of the Player Support team that serves the Guardians every day.<\/p>\n

A Patchwork of Notes<\/strong><\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n

When bugs launch a full-scale attack, Destiny Player Support<\/strong> is on hand to fight for you in the war rooms at Bungie. To us, the only good bug is a dead bug. Would you like to know more?<\/p>\n

This is our report.<\/p>\n
