Another sought-after category is Exotic weapons and class-specific armor pieces, as these items change the way the game is played with a specific character or weapon archetype. Exotics are among Destiny 2’s most iconic drops, and this is something that held true in the first installment of the series when players who received Gjallarhorn would share their reactions online. Because there are many Exotics in the game, it’s only natural not every one of them is the best, but at times all it would take for them to become optimal is just an easy tweak....

Bungie Design Lead Lars Bakken took to Twitter to say that private matches for Gambit will not be in the game at Forsaken’s launch in September, but he says Bungie is looking into adding it in the future: This may disappoint some fans, particularly those who may have hoped to set up Gambit matches between friends or in a tournament-type setting. But as for Gambit, when it launches the main playlist will feature matchmaking so anyone from solo players to groups will be able to jump in....

In addition to unlocking mods, the Seasonal Artifact will also introduce an infinite power climb, with new levels gained on the Seasonal Artifact giving a +1 Power bonus to players that goes on top of whatever Power level their gear affords them. But the game will keep the level cap from growing exponentially into the future by retiring each season’s Artifact at the end of the season, introducing a new set of mods to unlock and resetting the Power bonus progression....

In the first part of Smith’s Destiny 2 Director’s Update, a 20-page-long, multi-part blog post that looks to acknowledge both Destiny 2’s past and its future, the director took a moment to dive into the role that microtransactions play in the game’s development. While Smith was quick to note that microtransactions are not enough to fully support major projects like expansions, he did state that they “help fund ongoing development of Destiny 2....

Of course, one of the main goals when exploring and completing a raid is loot, and trust us when we say Leviathan has plenty of it.

Next week’s exotic weapon quest will send players on a hunt for a heavy machine gun called Xenophage. Bungie has previously teased the Destiny 2 exotic by bringing a replica of the weapon to events and soon its virtual counterpart will be available.

This is Destiny 2’s way of honoring the first gun Guardians held in the main story campaign. Upon launching the first mission, players were handed a simple, but unique, sidearm called Traveler’s Chosen that gets all but destroyed later on.

Izanagi’s Burden In the primary weapon slot, Izanagi’s Burden has become one of the best weapons and the premiere exotic of choice for PvE. Thanks to its exotic perk called Honed Edge, this exotic sniper rifle can combine four bullets into 1 “super” bullet that deals extra damage. Prior to the nerf to autoloading mechanics like Lunafaction Boots and Rally Barricade, Izanagi’s Burden wasn’t as popular because many primary weapons could outclass it....

Trump pleased with joint World Cup bid Not everyone shared in Montagliani’s joy. Complaints have poured in from critics from all three participants in the joint bid — the United States, Mexico and Canada — with issues ranging from the breakdown of the games (75 percent of which would be held in the U.S.) to the fact the countries even agreed to combine their bids after all three initially showed interest in bidding independently....

While Guardians are familiar with the inevitable server failure on day 1 of a new season, it is still not something Guardians want to see when trying to access a new season’s content.
