In Destiny wird es in der kommenden Woche große Veränderungen geben – und dafür ist nicht einmal eine Erweiterung nötig

 

Vielleicht haben Sie es schon gehört: In Destiny wird es sehr bald beträchtliche Veränderungen geben. Manche dieser Veränderungen hängen direkt mit der Taken King Erweiterung zusammen, aber etliche werden vorgenommen, auch wenn Sie diese Erweiterung nicht kaufen.

Im aktuellsten wöchentlichen Update im Blog des Unternehmens erklärt Bungie etliche der Dinge, die mit Destinys 2.0 “Year Two” Update geändert werden. Das Update erscheint am 8. September, also eine Woche vor The Taken King (Erscheinungstermin 15. September).

Hier die Kurzversion: Alle Spieler können eine Woche lang die neuen Crucible Karten und Modi ausprobieren, am Leveling und der Ökonomie werden umfangreiche Änderungen vorgenommen, Auto Rifles (automatische Gewehre) werden angeblich nicht mehr so beschi***n sein, es wird im Tower neue Dinge zu tun und zu kaufen geben und die Spieler erhalten eine zusätzliche Woche, um sich das coole „year-one triumphs emblem“ zu besorgen.

Aus dem wöchentlichen Update von Bungie:

You have one more weekend to experience Destiny as it has existed in Year One. On September 8th, the deployment of Update 2.0 will change the way we play. Next week, we’ll deliver complete patch notes to keep you occupied. Here’s a tactical preview for how things about to change:

Das Unternehmen bietet weitere Informationen dazu, was von Jahr eins zu Jahr zwei übernommen wird und was nicht:

What’s leaving Destiny when you download the 2.0 update:

• Vanguard & Crucible Marks: Activities where you previously earned Vanguard/Crucible marks will now grant Legendary Marks. On Tuesday, your current Vanguard/Crucible marks will converted into faction commendations. [Update: This change takes effect on 09/15]

• The Elder Cipher will no longer drop upon completion of the Skolas Challenge Arena in the Prison of Elders. The Exotic items offered with the Elder Cipher will now have a chance to drop from the Prison of Elders Treasure Chest.

What’s going to be required to install the 2.0 update:

• If you’re playing Destiny on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you’ll need around 18GB of hard drive space free. We recommend turning on any console features that will automatically download game updates, when available.

• If you’re playing Destiny on PlayStation 3, you’ll need about 20GB of hard drive space free to download and then install the update. Once the update is fully installed, you will only need around 10GB free.

• If you’re playing Destiny on Xbox 360, you’ll need around 10GB of hard drive space free.

• You can read more about the Hard Drive Requirements for the Destiny 2.0 update here.

What’s the best way to send off Year One of Destiny:

• The Moments of Triumph have been extended to September 14, 2015 at 11:59 PM PDT (6:59 AM UTC). You can check your progress by visiting the Moments of Triumph progress page as part of your Legend.

• Remember that your Moments of Triumph are tied to your active character roster. With the new Quest system and 2.0 changes incoming, we understand the appeal to start a new character. However, deleting a character to do so may jeopardize your progress towards the Moments of Triumph. We recommend waiting until you’ve secured your Emblem before deleting any characters that contributed to your Moments of Triumph progress.

Zusätzlich werden alle Spieler vom 8. September bis zum 14. September die beiden neuen Crucible Spielmodi, Mayhem und Rift, ausprobieren und alle neuen Karten spielen können. (Nach dem 14. sind die neuen Inhalte nur mehr für all jene verfügbar, die The Taken King gekauft haben. Clever.)

Es gibt sogar einen Trailer dafür:

Nicht schlecht! Da werde ich das Spiel in der nächsten Woche wieder einmal spielen.
