Following Destiny's The Dawning event, which took place over much of December and early January, it feels like the social shooter has once again fallen off to the side. We've seen this happen time and time again with Bungie's ongoing project, but with Destiny 2 supposedly due later in the year, everyone's wondering how the developer is going to pad things out until the sequel's eventual release.
Writing on its official blog, the studio talks about what's coming next - namely another content update. Details are unsurprisingly scarce, but it sounds like we can expect something relatively big this spring. Oh, and there'll be no Valentine's Day event next month since the team's so busy with the aforementioned update. Can't say we're too disappointed, though, given how weak 2016's offering was.
What are you hoping for in this spring update? What does Destiny have to do to keep you coming back as we move into 2017? Grab a fireteam and blitz the comments section below.

Some new areas and PvE content would be nice.
Maybe a new RAID, or at least a revival of the old raids (with current items to drop)
And a new light-level max. .. my chars are all 400 and have end-game stuff ... even most of the "hidden" exotics etc.
I'm done with Destiny at this point, I finished Rise of Iron and have enjoyed my time immensely over the past couple of years but I didn't even feel the need to play the Christmas update. More to the point there are many great games coming out over the next few months so I haven't got time to play one that I've already out many hours into.
RAID Matchmaking please, for the love of all that is good and decent.
@gmxs I can almost assure you that with the current tools in Destiny...matchmaking would be a bad experience for players.
I'm not against the idea, but it needs to be implemented correctly for it to give players a good experience. I don't believe we'll see a good implementation in Destiny (1).
@mrobinson91 I agree, I just thought there may had been some way to matchmake on light level and raid experience, all that information is there on their servers.
Hopefully in Destiny 2 this might be implemented
@gmxs That's what I'm hoping for Destiny 2...give the players the tools to find a team within the game itself
I look forward to it - as an early Sony adopter I'm stil enjoying Bungies' wares on PS4 - no other shooter comes close to its dynamics, visceral gunplay and smooth mechanics.
But Rockstar do online much better - GTA Online is still a standard bearer yet the cost for Destiny, over the last 2 years with free, substantial DLC from Rockstar, really does reflect where it's lacking; PVE and single player, and cost versus their online only structure.
Bungie, fix that and give us a world to explore and immerse in for Destiny 2, not blocked off levels which dispel said immersion.
I'll be keen to see what the previews start to say on Destiny 2 - imagine that in VR.....woah 😮
I just want Destiny 2 already... this game was such a huge disappointment to me in the end, even with The Taken King.
It has unfortunately become too easy for crap players to reach max level, I often get match making that puts me in a strike with two players that have apparently somehow managed to collect 50% more grimoire cards but haven't a clue how to plough through mid tier pleb enemies. Does my nut in.
Bring in dedicated servers and nerf Matador 64; that would be a good update for me.
