Crucible is the best part of the game (Destiny)

I would say that Bungie doesn't care about competitive play, so that may not be a thing. I don't think competitive play has really been a priority since Halo 3. Don't get me wrong, I agree with you on so many levels, but I think Destiny's main priority for Bungie was the social aspects and whatnot. The lack of dedicated servers in this thing from day one I think showed all of their intent right out of the gate.

I fully agree with you. It's just a shame, because the potential for Destiny to become *the* competitive FPS game is certainly there. They've nailed movement and gun feel. Still need polish on weapon balance, but they've come a long way. When there's no lag, the game is really great to play. I feel like things are bit chaotic as we all get a feel for how the Iron relics affect gameplay, but once that settles down everything should go back to being smooth as butter. The trials mode, especially, feels like a chess match - it's great.
