I think they should change Nessus in patrol, also should have changed permanently with the battlegrounds as well

It would be great to see. I can somewhat understand the battleground situations as they’ve usually got extra areas added (such as the ascendant plane), but you would think it wouldn’t take too much work to remove that area and update the patrol map. It would liven up patrol a tad

@@Redstonemelon yea it would up the immersion to make the game permanently change with each development

my best guess is the area will only change at the beginning of acts and end of act 3 just for the sake of not developing like 10 different versions of the nessus map, and instead just 4.

That would make a lot of sense and would be a good compromise, hopefully this is the case

I think also to avoid spoilers for her story for people who may be putting it off for whatever reason.

I think I sit in the same boat as you. Here’s to hoping that by act 2, or at least by the end of the episode that the patrol space has been updated to how it is within the story missions.

Here’s hoping. It would just seem so bizarre that if at the end of a story about a planet changing, the planet is largely the same as it’s been for 7 years

I'm guessing they are holding off on updating the live patrol space for act 2 to keep back spoilers at least for the act as it is.

Not sure about every battleground but some of them seem to actually be copys of areas rather that being in the patrol zones themselves. we have had 2 seasonal events take place on the Forgotten Shores in the Cosmodrome, 1 Defiant battleground and the other a pirate treasure 1. What gives it away is the Defiant battleground in the Forgotten Shores was named the Dry Sea and Bungie didn't name mask it. also if you look behind you when you spawn in you can actually make out the bubble around the ascended plain. OOBing in some battlegrounds will show missing parts of the map and load zones are removed too.

Yeah usually you can determine if it’s a copy if there’s no other guardians there I think. Some of the Nessus strikes would have sections in Patrol areas, which is the actual patrol spaces since there’s other guardians, for example. In the defiant battlegrounds I guess they have the massive Ascendant Plane area added to the area, which would be extra work to remove for patrol. I just wish they actually updated Patrol :-(

@@Redstonemelon I also wish they would update patrol zones more than the rare skybox change or small structure here and there. I know it would have its own problems but why doesn't every patrol zone have an option to load in its original form and its current seasonal form. Having a lack of players doesn't change it because look at Neptune where I rarely find another player and The Pale heart which is designed to be soloable.

Something else kinda odd, when I played through the final shape campaign on my other characters, the skybox was set as the post raid one

I actually meant to mention this in the video (too many takes). It’s a really odd change since the Pale Heart is a solo/fireteam space, so multiple versions would actually work fairly well. I’m sure it’s probably the same with Witch Queen and such too. Guess it’s an example of where they used a blanket change instead of a player progression change

I think if we actually do get the patrol space changed it will be at the end of story for Act 3. From a development standpoint changing Nessus would be a big thing so waiting until All the changes are done and giving it a blanket update would make a lot more sense rather than making potentially 3 different new patrol maps which you have to change every 6 weeks (this would just lead to so many problems you can’t even imagine) so if there is going to be a change it would most likely happen at the tail end of the Episode when all the changes in the story are done

I could see this being the case also, however I guess it really depends on how the patrol zones work. Are they able to make changes to a specific load zone (e.g. the Cistern) without affecting the rest of the map, or does it require updating the entire map?

I feel like they’d have to change a lot of stuff thus why the changes are mostly only in the activities Which for some stuff makes a lot of sense cuz it might interfere with some missions, but nessus isnt one of those places that it’d rlly interfere tbh

Yeah I can understand not wanting to change the Moon, Europa, Throne World & Neptune as they all have campaigns that take place there and that could upset things with the missions. But as you say, with Nessus there is nothing that takes place there anymore. Only issues I could see are with the starts of The Inverted Spire and Insight Terminus as they start in patrol spaces, but even saying that the areas of The Cistern & Tangle they use are relatively unchanged even with the new versions

They keep doing this shit with the patrol zones. They introduce these cool changes that we see in seasonal activities and it would be so cool if they were added in the patrol zones to add to that sense of consistency in the world. Instead the patrol zones stay the same forever

Probably gonna change it in act two so everyone gets caught up to this point in the story

I really hope that they at least change something in act 2 and 3, they have changed the well of echos and sky, but they have changed 3 different areas only in missions, I hope we see those actually change in the patrol zone

Yeah it’s a bit jarring going back to Nessus now isn’t it?
