Yesterday, following the weekly blog post This Week at Bungie, Bungie‘s Sandbox Discipline Lead, Kevin Yanes share some of their thoughts on Destiny 2’s latest Solar 3.0 rework that went live with Season of the Haunted.

Furthermore, replying to a tweet, Yanes confirmed that a certain Titan exotic armor from Destiny 1 will not return and that Titans will not get the mid-air dodge (similar to what Warlocks have) in Destiny 2. “Titans will never get air dodge back my guy.

Yanes has been one of the major parts of the developer comms in the past, providing constant updates on the future Destiny 2 sandbox changes.

This isn’t the first time something like this happened in the Destiny community where toxic fans harassed game developers over something in-game.
