You can say what you like about Destiny, but Bungie's been quite impressive with its post-release support. The title's next big patch will soon be live, and the developer's detailed exactly what's going to be in it.
In addition to being able to wear helmets in the Tower and the ability to tweak colour blind and audio settings, the update makes changes to numerous bits and pieces throughout the game. These alterations include slight tweaks to enemy types in Strikes to make them a touch easier, and the removal of annoying Raid bugs.
Honestly, it's a pretty big patch, so we'll just go ahead and finish things off with a few highlights. As you may know by now, Vault size will be increased so that you can allocate more space for your prized possessions, and you can now 'lock' your favourite bits of gear to make sure that they're not accidentally dismantled.
To top it all off, the update notes mention "better handling of rest mode/resume on PS4", which should be a nice little bonus for those who make constant use of the console feature. If you want to view the full list of changes, feel free to click through here.

Yup, waiting for the next expansion to drop before playing again, all these little improvements will be a big improvement when it comes in May.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi I hope they've got copies of staying alive and boom shake the room. Will carry this convo on in the forums I feel a raid coming on!!!
I havent sold the game, its the game good nowdays ? I mean, i didnt like it on release, did they do enough patching and stuff to worth it playing again ?
@Faruko It's essentially the same game, the core elements haven't been altered - just a few bits and pieces have been tweaked and added. If you fancy jumping back in at some point, I'd wait and see how good House of Wolves is.
@ShogunRok @Bad-MuthaAdebisi But its the loot still bad (in how you get it) did they finally give you decent loot at the end of a run, or its killing any monster the best way to get new weapons ?
Anyone else thinking that 6GB is way too much for an update with these miniscule improvements? Then there'll be at least 3-4GB on House of Wolves.....I think this is one of the best games ever made, but 2 things will see it's undoing - Activision ripping off consumers with ridiculous pay structure for not much content, and these annoying updates.
I know most of you have broadband so it's not as bad, but I still use a 4G dongle and that means all data is consumed before the update is even installed......now I'll have to get broadband in order to update Destiny, Driveclub & Bloodborne. It's frankly a pain in the proverbial.
@Galvatron iWhere do you live? Here in the Nederlands i pay 50 euro a month for 150 mbit per second! And

On topic: Borderlands the handsome collection or destiny?
The question is: Will there be a story in the next expansion?
From the trailer I would presume it will go like that:
Queen:"They killed my fellow men, go and kill them on my behalf"
After 3 short missions - Queen: "Great, now I'm happy, now you can kill them another million times with my bounties".
Destiny has such an interesting universe and yet Bungie just doesn't have the brains of using it properly.
@Sanquine UK. Whilst I really should have broadband, I don't need a landline or 90% of the features associated with the full TV / phone / broadband packages, hence my use of a simple 4G dongle purely for online gaming.
I'm still of the opinion that these updates should be compressed in file size terms, pretty soon our PS4'a will be like IPhones - where the system software is such a large file there's no room for apps!!
I may even stop playing Destiny - which I've played daily for months - such is my disgust at a 6GB mandatory update which HAS to be installed to continue playing a game I've already spent £70 on including The Dark Below DLC.
Totally unacceptable - yet no gaming sites feels like commenting on this.....
