In the MMO shooter Destiny, a player has now discovered an actually inaccessible area, a fully designed bunker. Could this be the area for the next raid?
Images of a previously inaccessible area in the MMO Destiny have surfaced on reddit. They match a video from the beta a few months ago, when players managed to glitch into a kind of “bunker” and took some great footage there. According to the reddit user, he managed to glitch outside the boundaries of the “Cosmodrome” map and landed in this bunker.
New raid in Destiny could be a bunker – or is it a DLC?
While a US site reported on this and mentioned a “DLC” that could come into the game, others believe that this is “merely” the area for the next raid. Rumors had surfaced just before release that one of the next raids in Destiny could lead to the moon.
In any case, it seems that the terrain is actually already playable and fully designed; now it just needs mobs, but they are already in the game. Some fans are frustrated about why the raid in Destiny isn’t made accessible yet when it appears to be almost complete.
Withholding content is now common practice in MMOs
Mein MMO thinks: In MMORPGs, it has become common for developers to hold back actually playable content at release so that they can deliver it shortly after launch as the first content patch. This has happened in titles like The Elder Scrolls Online and WildStar, for example. As a result, players at the maximum level are not overwhelmed with “too much to do” right away. Of course, fresh and well-developed content creates a good vibe, keeps the game feeling fresh, and generates good press. However, everyone should understand that complex new game content like raids or new zones takes time to develop.
However, one of the major criticisms of Destiny, pointed out by many magazines, is that too much has been removed from the base game to create an incentive for purchasing later DLCs. As a result, the actual game has too many gaps, especially in the storyline.
We will see when the “Bunker Ras-2” finds its way into the live version of Destiny. At the moment, very few have seen the first raid, the Vault of Glass, let alone completed it on the hard difficulty.
