What are Destiny 2 Commendations? New with the launch of Lightfall, Commendations allow Guardians to express kudos toward other Guardians after engaging in team-based activities. Bungie is introducing Commendations to celebrate the Guardians who make Destiny 2 a better experience for all players. Gaming communities can be toxic, and Commendations act as a seal of approval for players who may have helped weaker Guardians or gone out of their way while playing in such group activities.
In a recent Bungie blog post titled “Lightfall and the Year Ahead,” Destiny 2 game director Joe Blackburn suggested Commendations act as “icebreakers” to allow other Guardians to understand at a glance what skills a player can contribute to the overall fireteam in the FPS game when the Lightfall release date lands. Commendations not only recognize individual player contributions but are also meant to act as signals to other Guardians that a certain player may be a particularly strong or helpful teammate. Further, Commendations are only positive, meaning players won’t be able to use them to troll teammates.
