No dedicated servers but going really sweaty for esports makes it seem like Bungie is still living in 2004 though.

xzzy posted:Bungie going after esports again seems like a bad idea as it was a giant tire fire when they attempted it in Halo.. it basically chased off everyone who played the game for fun because there was no way to escape the competitive setup. the halo franchise were like the first console shooters that was actually competitive so idek what you're talking about. tons of people played halo casually.

Have you ever actually operated an Interceptor in this game? You have more control in a pachinko machine.

I have watched some of the pvp videos, but I can't figure out the "dual primary" weapon types. Do any video have a good shot of the weapon types? It is kinetic, energy and power I know, but are certain types limited to a slot? A scout or pulse paired with a fast firing hand canon could be a fun load out. Pair with a shotgun or sniper as a power weapon depending on the map or game type could lead to some fun builds. It does remind me of halo, auto rifle/pistol starting load out. The increased TTK seems to me like they took the super nerf approach to all the weapons, and now they have room to adjust up or down without completely ruining the intended TTK. While I like the mobility in Destiny, the movement changes make a lot of sense since skating shotgun jugs or constant shade stepping night stalkers were so aids.

It is kinetic, energy and power I know, but are certain types limited to a slot? Weapons in the non power slots are scouts, pulses, ars, handcankns, smgs and sidearms. In the primary slot they are kinetic. In the energy slot they have an element. The pvp guys I have seen are talking about how the guns are weaker but due to the fact that people in super take extra damage from elemental guns of the same type (striker Titan gets owned by arc gun) there's not an overwhelming sense of roaming super dominance circa early Taken King Sunbreaker titans. You can counter with appropriate teamshooting of energy weapons.

So yeah you can run scout and void pulse, or Ar and solar AR, or hand cannon and arc smg, as examples.

I just hope you can pick the element of your energy gun independent of the gun itself. It's loving annoying to have to carry 3 separate good sidearms for elemental cover.

Either everyone who was recording game play is really bad at the game, or TTK is way up too. Not sure how that will play out, I like the idea of more team shooting because solo heroes is a big issue with D1, but I also don't like the idea of people being able to run away and get health back too easily. I do like the idea of adding some shield/damage matching to crucible though. Hopefully those guns help taking down other things, like the deployable cover toys.

So when a gun drops, is it already tagged as kinect or energy? Or do all primary guns work in either slot and suppress their element if they're equipped as kinetic? Do the slots share ammo? TTK is definitely up, someone earlier said that a lot of one-hit kill situations have been removed.

haveblue posted:TTK is definitely up, someone earlier said that a lot of one-hit kill situations have been removed. i mean, a lot of ohk situations are gone by virtue of making most of the ohk weapons effectively heavies i hope there's more than one opportunity to get heavy a game, though. i think snipers and shotguns and stuff are too prevalent atm but once a game seems like it wouldn't be enough. where are fusions going? power weapon slot?

Bungie loves their RNG and I can't see them removing the damage type from RNG completely. Unless maybe they tie it into the weapon modification feature that we know nothing about yet. Like a gun drops as solar, but with the right consumable you can convert it to arc or whatever.

TTK is way up and bodyshot penalty is up as well. The pvp pros there have said from talking to folks that the pvp guys are doing this on purpose and also want the movement to be back to vanilla launch pvp speed before everyone figured out that speed kills.

Need to know more on nightstalker, flippy lightning staff does gently caress all for me, Nightstalker is the only hunter class I enjoy and play 90% of the time unless the raid needs a celestial. Cause Titans Captain America shield and warlocks buff wells look drat cool for support.

I think the idea of tapping someone with a high impact and swapping to a sidearm or something spammy to finish them off is an interesting play mechanic to promote too. Every video I've seen of people trying to 1v1 with the pulse rifle ends in tragedy while tagging them at range then closing the gap to finish the kill is really effective. Obviously you can't make too many conclusions about the state of pvp at this point as no one knew what they were doing, but until the beta is out this summer it's all we got.

My interpretation is that Bungie wants the recovery stat to actually matter this time. But figuring that out will probably have to wait until September.

Everything that can OHK is in the power slot now. Though I suppose a minigun doesn't technically one hit kill, but its TTK is still going to be pretty unbeatable.
