Bungie has revealed a big change coming Destiny 2His Crucible mode, focusing on something players have been asking for: stopping crouch spam. This move comes in response to many complaints from the PvP community, as crouching spam makes it harder to hit players who use this trick, giving them an unfair advantage. Bungie is now stepping in to fix this issue, with the goal of creating a more balanced and fair gameplay experience for Destiny 2.
Destiny 2 is a very popular online multiplayer first-person shooter that combines sci-fi and fantasy. Players, called Guardians, must protect the last city on Earth from various alien threats while playing both PvE and PvP modes. Since launch, Destiny 2 continued to evolve with seasonal expansions and updates. For a long time, however, fans have been calling for a change to Crucible mode to stop “crouch spam,” where players quickly crouch during fights to make it harder for others to hit them accurately. Bungie is now addressing this issue.
Bungie has announced that it will limit how many times players can crouch per second in the future Destiny 2 Revenant episode. This adjustment is intended to level the playing field for those using Hold to Crouch and Toggle Crouch, ending the quick crouch often used to gain an unfair advantage in gunfights. The goal is to maintain tactical crouching, which is a legitimate skill in competitive play, while preventing the abuse of macros or external devices that allow players to crouch at unrealistic speeds. Bungie has assured players that this change will not affect normal gameplay for those who crouch at a regular rate, but it will put an end to excessive crouching spam.
Bungie ends Destiny 2 crouch spam
Destiny 2: The Revenant episode is scheduled to launch on October 8th and brings a lot of new content as well. An interesting addition is potion crafting, which allows players to brew battle potions and loot to increase their abilities and rewards. A new dungeon will debut on October 11, introducing Contest Mode for the first time in a Destiny 2 dungeon, adding an extra layer of challenge to this highly anticipated event.
Additionally, with Codename: Frontiers set to arrive in the summer of 2025, Bungie has announced that it will be doing away with separate dungeon keys. This means that Destiny 2 players will be able to access dungeons as long as they own the main expansion. As Bungie rolls out these changes, it will be interesting to see how Crucible mode evolves now that crouching spam will no longer be an option.
