Only five strikes (not including PS4 exclusive one) in the game according to the prematurely released strategy guide

That just seems seriously low to me. There's 15 in Destiny 1 so far.

No qualms given we have 2 expansions slated for the first 6 months. That number will rise to assuredly at least 7.

There were only six in D1 base game before the TDB/HoW DLC. Devil's Lair, Summoning Pits, The Dust Palace, Cerebus Vae III, The Nexus, Winter’s Run. Dust Palace was the PS4 exclusive.

I think I saw a harvesteable material in one of the released patrol videos (some sort of crystal shard). Tokens seems to acquire gear.... or I am wrong?

The material can also be used to increase the NPC rep in the same way as Zedsdeadbaby said for the tokens. It's unclear if either have another use such as gear leveling or if we'll use shards of dismantled gear for that

at launch destiny had 5 + the ps exclusive strike. we're also 4 expansions later on that and know the D2 ones have "remixes" already like taken, siva, and alternate enemy types. Inverted Spire already eluded to that strike having a fallen theme as well.


don't forget that we're also getting a fuckload of adventures and lost sector mini-strikes to work with in each, much more expanded patrol area.

Also 17 campaign missions. I'm guessing a bunch of the missions will be saved for the end game, like all the poo poo that opened up after TK and RoI's campaign.

Lots of returning exotics too, but at least they changed up the perks quite a bit.

Sorry, guy.
So it may be incomplete info, but the biggest info from the Guide leaks is that a lot of Exotics are reused from D1 and the strike count is 5 (6 for PS4.)

However, that seems at odds with their depth claims, etc... so who knows.

There was definitely a crumb of enjoyment chilling with your bros popping chests to get upgrade materials, but let's not kid ourselves that it would have been wayyyy better to chill with your bros in strikes.

Plus the bullshit three man limit on patrols. The game could clearly handle six man teams just fine because it's not like Venus blew up when people patrolled on a vog raid.

The going justification is that it's an incomplete list that doesn't include all the super secret hidden exotic quests that Bungie has planned.

I can imagine this is true.

Also, farming strikes shouldn't be the only way to get raid ready in Destiny 2 with the addition of Lost Sectors, weekly Flashpoints, etc. 6 (on PS4) strikes doesn't sound so bad if you're not running them as much as you had to in D1.

why did they have to get so loving safe with exotics? are the only fun exotics going to be those first few in destiny year 1 that slipped under the radar and were actually good and that's it for the rest of the series? the standout in D2 is mida which was always just "generic good scout rifle" and it gets substantially duller from there. there isn't a single interesting perk on any of these loving things, this is retarded, why even bother playing if there's nothing to aim for?

oh boy handcannon readies slightly faster, HOW loving EXOTIC MY GAMEPLAY IS CHANGING SO MUCH THIS IS SO FUN. arc ability kills charge arc abilities slightly faster woah hold the loving phone I've never seen anything like that on dozens of generic purples no one ever gave a poo poo about. this is safe and boring as gently caress and just another wrong direction they're taking with the series. anything that can make their jobs easier they do, and most of it makes the game worse but who cares. there's no balance problem if everything is lovely and boring, smart work guys!

oh wait this isnt a dark souls style loot game anymore it's some whacky CoD bro poo poo where everything has the same stats so you dont need to do no complicated figurin' the only thing we like more than cayde is walls of lovely gifs from the human being krew.
