Remove Oscillation
I play strikes kinda just to listen to music and shred stuff using whatever weapons and builds I want to.
With the Oscillation modifier it makes running strikes annoying and less fun Imo
-
I would say that all of these new modifiers are garbage and needs to be removed. This is Bungie we are talking about, so they will unfortunately stay.
-
I agree it needs to be removed from the game along with the majority of the new modifiers.
-
Took me a hot minute to figure out why my Agers was doing no damage to damn ads lol, noped out of the playlist as soon as I saw that stupid modifier. It doesn't make it any harder, as I can just punch roll infinitely, it's just an annoyance because I wanted to shoot stuff.
-
Yes 100% and while you’re at it remove Haste too, it’s freaking dumb.
-
I actually was gonna chill in strikes one day until I saw that modifier. I logged off instead cause I didn't want to think about other activities. Really dislike them adding some of these modifiers in regular strikes.

1 ReplyUgh I know right , every time I see oscillation or haste on onslaught or vanguard strikes I just don’t play them that week . They just aren’t fun
-
it's a lazy dev effort to break player patterns but it just isn't fun at all these guys show amazingly little aptitude to identify 'fun' and instead just throw everything at the wall and treat the playerbase like an ant farm. They track success solely through engagement metrics and are utterly bewildered when engagement drops on something that seemed to work before. Player burnout in response to these tedious mechanics.

Every time I see it in vanguard playlist I just switch it off, one of the only fun PVE mode with matchmaking that doesn’t have a stupid puzzle and they want to ruin it
-
Agreed, I haven't played a strike since they added this.
-
Seconded or thirded or whatever.

3 RepliesIt's fine in GM's and Nightfalls, but not in strikes. Modifiers need to be very basic there.

Firstly, just don't run strikes with oscillation, take that day off, send a message . Secondly, did you notice it's been oscillation 5 times in the last 10 days? They're absolutely trying to kill this game, no other modifier is ever used this often. It's a very very badly designed perk for base strikes & to put it in these show laziness, I've never callee them lazy but that's lazy, thoughtless, done by people who don't play the game, or do & don't want people running strikes Why do people run strikes? To do their weekly 9 for 3 exotics, to run pathfinder for pinnacles/dust, to complete exotic catalysts, or to complete weekly challenges or triumphs. Oscillation goes against all of that. They're making the game very very tedious, it's not fun & I think they're actively trying to give sony a reason to kill the game via dropping player numbers

2 RepliesPersonally, I think we need another option.. like Heroic Strikes in D1. Then we can have a "brain off" mode in strikes & a Heroic Modifier mode. I used to really enjoy that in D1. Bottle of nice Merlot, a good podcast & classic strikes. Jus chill & slay. Even drop my power to sub 250 to help some new players get thru those strikes needed for quests. The longer D2 runs, the more I feel they missed the lessons learned from D1.
-
1 ReplyThey should just change it to work between the slots
-
2 RepliesIn before somebody says that oscillation is a requirement and should be permanent because it allows them to kill strike bosses 1 second faster and they don't feel like it limits builds and their account says they've only ever used shotguns.
-
Those modifiers are in regular strikes? wtf lol
-
Everything already falls over in that content. I wouldn't sweat it and just keep running what you want.
-
Ya oscillation can stay in gms, but the vanguard playlist can stick to basic stuff.
