Destiny 2 Lore - Into The Light Livestream 1 Lore Roundup. Defending The City with Shaxx!

[@abyssal_beans]

Shaxx: Remember guardian, these weapons are to be deployed against the Witness’ forces only. It was hard enough convincing Zavala to allow them back at all, so under NO circumstances are you permitted to bring them into crucible. The Guardian:

"In case you couldn't tell, I winked from under the helmet."

"Also throw plenty of grenades."

With onslaught taking place on PvP maps this makes me wish we at least had more pvp maps in the city.

[@alter6243]

@@JPOG7TV9/10 times I would agree with this sentiment but it’s honestly a much better way to go this route. Hype is built up over time. Plus every aspect of the update gets its own dedicated time slot. For example, the weapons/loot getting its own dedicated live stream. Which also might hint at other content coming with the update. If Shaxx’s arsenal and the Black Armory are dropping from this new activity, the Midnight Coup is likely dropping from something different. Too many hand cannons to come from one activity. Luna’s Howl and or Not Forgotten, and Kindled Orchid are practically confirmed to drop from the activity. 3/4 hand cannons in one loot pool is a bit extreme.

[@sleepylion9511]

The problem i have is that i want the city invasion to feel like red war, city in flames, total chaos a real last stand. But with the nature of the game it will just feel separate.

[@elseggs6504]

Not just the Chaos. Your powerless ass crawling while desperately avoiding enemy patrols hits different. Had it not been a +16 game maybe they couldve shown civilian massacres instead of only human bones near Warbeast dens

[@rexthewolf3149]

The red war had the benefit of being the main part of a campaign. ITL is being added to the game as filler content that can’t take too much manpower from final shape.

[@arryn786]

Honestly I don’t think it would make sense to do that again from a narrative view as the red war really should mean the city is more prepared for breaches of the walls and able to evacuate areas accordingly. Basically it would be dumb if nothing has changed since the last time as the city was totally taken over whereas this time we are actually making a defence.

[@azraelwolfsblood2902]

If you expect a free event to have that much effort put into it you’re a damn fool

[@lazyvoid7107]

​@@azraelwolfsblood2902Everything is focus on TFS

[@yauma1098]

It would have been crazy if they made the old tower the only social space, placing every vendor there and turn the actual tower into one of the new gamemode map. It would have been really impactful, the Witness actually hitting hight value target zones and would make sense for the convenient timing for the old tower being repaired. Also as a bonus, non vendor key characters should also be placed in the new tower, old tower or HELM at least as backround (mithrax, eido, sloane, ana bray ...)

[@yauma1098]

They should also bring back the last mission from vanilla destiny 2 that took place in the last city, the one where you killed Ghoul, change the order, remove his ship and the cabal and just make it another map. Many actual destiny 2 players didn't get to play it and for some of us veterans it would be a nice call back to the first moments of destiny 2, even if those were not the best, that mission specifically was.

[@current3109]

Nah we want the og tower back

[@captainarkro4376]

I'm hyped for all the lore we will getting from the game and Byf these next few weeks.

[@comaiscool]

My biggest gripe here, is that if its all PvPs map doesn't make it feel like "defending the Last City" It just feels like defending a PvP zone given so far the ADU positions seem to be placed at A, B, C zones

[@Sol_Invictus1997]

At first I was like “Wait, I thought the Witness couldn’t see what we were doing while it was inside the Traveler.” But I suppose it doesn’t need to see us to hinder us. I imagine it relayed one simple order to its minions while in the Pale Heart. Something akin to “Keep them busy. Or “Slow them down.”

[@eliaspanayi3465]

Well since when has lore slowed them down

[@zombiepicnic9683]

I liked this reveal. I'm always up for another hoard mode in Destiny. They're my favorite way to relax with the game. It also takes care of a key story point so that our battle with the Witness can be the sole focus of TFS.

[@SETHBENTON09]

I’m no expert here, but tactically speaking it makes no sense to leave Neomuna alone. They’re a big ally of ours and they have the Veil. It makes a lot of sense if the Witness attacks Earth and Neomuna seeing as how both cities control key elements of accessing the portal.

[@goldenyak629]

I do actually like big horde modes. Something like the Altars of Sorrow, but not just Hive-type enemies.

[@79bigcat]

If they ever update onslaught post TFS, one mission has to be rebuilding Insurrection Prime. Imagine having a _friendly_ Brig during a boss fight. Or hive wizards trying to figure out the APC mechanic.

[@heroicxidiot]

Hopefully new weapons that are both returning and reissued. I smell a recluse. Hopefully some new returning exotics. Some people are saying Red Death but I don't know.

question to people who see this, how do you feel about the "lieutenants" of the witness being random fallen be the ones in control of the witness' pyramid ship armies?

[@UltraRisen]

The lack of a new enemy race to make up the Witness’s main forces has really left a negative impact on the game. It’s obvious there was meant to be one, as they teased an entire fleet of Pyramid ships for several years. Making the Witness the entire race merged into one entity is a clear excuse for the giant fleet of ships to not have its own forces, and having random Fallen and Hive occupy the ships just really feels off.

[@Ins0mn3sia]

Honestly, if I feel there's one thing missing from Onslaught. It's that this would be a great vehicle to introduce Subjugators. Bannerfall was my first thought for maps, hadn't considered Twilight Gap. Though I must say Twilight Gap is all rusted out, with maybe functional weapons, so who knows how defensible it'd be. Pie in the sky, I'd love to see a Land Tank and Cabal emplacements defending a location, Cosmodrome? Somewhere entirely new? It really doesn't matter. It has far reaching ramifications for civilians to see a Land Tank that would otherwise be used as some kind of invasion staging point. Absolutely not gonna happen, but it'd be nice to see Cabal/House Light involvement beyond just Guards and Engineers in The Tower, and Ships in the sky.

[@adamherrick6077]

I thought onslaught looked cool but this does make me more excited- I know this is a smaller drop but it’s the first time I didn’t finish a live stream. I think for me it’s the reuse of maps but I appreciate the significance.

Unrelated to lore, but I as an xbox player heard about helldivers 2 recently and really wanted to play it or something like it, and now, lo and behold, my favorite game of all time is going to have a free horde mode!

[@radtacular2218]

I'm excited for this. It would have been interesting if they had something like this developing over the course of the year, rather than the Witness's forces invading like a year after it went into the Traveler. Imagine if we had people being abducted during Defiance, then it turns out that was somehow related to the pyramid ships gaining access to and terraforming Earth somehow. Then in Deep, instead of Salvage we got a base version of this to go alongside Deep Dives. So while we're communing with Ahsa and all that, we're constantly reminded that Earth is under siege and there's a sense of urgency. Then in Witch (though I wouldn't trade any of Witch's activities, as that season was excellent), imagine new locations and/or mechanics are introduced, and the overall state of the locations is more destroyed and decrepit. Then this season, instead of re-running Forsaken/DC content, still further new locations and/or mechanics are introduced. I know it's fruitless to wonder about what could have been (and I've been critical of Byf and others for knocking good developments because "this should have been in Lightfall"), and I know this was probably was a year of content that had less dev time because it was sort of a filler to buy time for TFS, and i know this likely wasn't in development early enough to implement what I lay out above (and I'm sure learnings from Deep Dives and such have played into its development), but it would have been really cool to have something like this building throughout the year, giving an actual sense of peril and urgency.

[@StrangerX9]

I LITERALLY made a forum post asking for PvP maps converted into a horde mode, with bosses every 10 waves! You’re welcome!

[@firenzarfrenzy4985]

I love everything about Onslaught except the timing. This should’ve been what defiance was about. Ever since the witness went into the portal, it makes sense he’d be doing everything to keep us out. Defiance, according to the devs was about how the war was finally on the home front and Onslaught sells that really well. I’m willing to accept that the witness has maybe upped its game having maybe sensed that Crow is on his way in but besides that it feels like the best activity ever at a different time. It’s a minor criticism but overall this is what I want to see from Bungie, as far as the activity goes, considering stream delivery only, it is very good!

[@chrisreilly1290]

Makes sense, Crow went through so far ahead of us, of course he'd be detected and the Witness wants to stop us from following him

They should use some of the old city areas from the red war. Maybe even some parts from the wall that was in zero hour. I'm fine with reusing stuff, I just don't think they should stick to just crucible maps idk Maybe even the new tower could get invaded, and that's why we move to the old one. That'd be cool

[@darthcerebus]

New Tower being a map in the horde mode would be a great starter for it. Tower gets invaded and Shaxx just goes "Oh baby, I've been preparing for this."

[@ruthlesslistener]

Iirc the reason why sunset stuff is so hard to bring back was due to the big code rewrite they did, so I don't have my hopes up, but that would be cool if they released more maps over time, to show that the Witness's forces have done damage to areas of the city even with our help. I don't think it would mke much sense right off the bat because we've basically been primed and ready for battle on our home turf since Lightfall, and the tower has rebuilt significantly since Ghaul's attack, but sustained warfare is going to have an effect either way

[@anu1o]

Shadow Legion seems to have aligned purpose with taken given that both lacks sentience and follows order of witness without question.

If bungie were to have added more of these free updates between seasons i think people wouldn’t have gotten so fatigued with the game or the seasonal model for that part. The free updates dont always have to be new gamemodes or whatever but it would give them a chance to revisit old modes like gambit, crucible and strikes and invest some more love into them keeping them fresh for the community. People like new things and the seasons would provide (except i would tweak the repetitiveness of each season so they could stand out more) while the free updates could exist to improve the foundations already in place in the game while also making the game feel fresh and unique once again. This update i predict is gonna do well for the game. Not on large scale terms but it might bring the buzz back up right before final shape.

So…I’m assuming Red Death will come back. Banned weapon was very very specific. Also Raze Lighter maybe??? Maybe we’ll get D1 exotic armor too? If they don’t bring back the D1 tower or only for the activity and is temporary…that’d be one of the biggest L’s ever.

Pretty sure it’s going to be house salvation, considering it’s them we saw In the gameplay session. But then again, who knows 🤷‍♂️

For sure, though they just as easily could have been wrathborn, they use the same models.

I was wondering why the shorts weren’t showing up in my subscriptions.

Will we see the Lucent Hive actually help us this time? Unlike in Elsie Bray's dark future where Savathun helps the Witness?
