I think opening the raid for randoms to enter is the "we have tried everything and did not work, press the panic button" at 01:20 AM.

Is not something serius raiders are going to do, except on the most extreme cases, and it will almost always backfire in hilarious ways. THEN we will always get the random story about that random that was a decent player, and everybody was amazed by that.

Has for dirty tier raiders.. I dunno. I guest a group of people will be able to complete the entire raid that way, but none of the original players will finish the raid, none. If you don't find a group and enter that thing, have god pity of your soul.

The one problem they want to solve is people without friends, so I think they have good intentions, even if is more like fishing with dynamite.

It's pretty obvious they are gonna make the raids doable by 5 strong players and a retard, which is maybe okay but reeks of dumbing down.

They probably understand player numbers better than me so I'm willing to roll with any negative effects given they are smart enough to not go down the fully matchmade route.

I don't fear this. They have resisted the temptation so long, I don't think they are going to fall now.

Steve, if you like singleplayer Massive Multiplayer Online Games you must try Elders Scroll Online. It has a fuckton of content, the average quality is good with parts that are very good. The game do a lot of heavy instancing and ... is actually easier to do solo than in a group (the quest instancing gets in the way). The game now feels even more like Skyrim that at release. Is a good game.

Supers

Warlock new super => summon a blade that shot fire blades, roaming super
Titan new super => captain america, summons a shield that can shot and it returns
Hunter (new?) super => pole dancing thing, looks good, like a ballerina trying to kill you. It will still be weaker than the other two?

More interesting, maybe, is all the other tools that will come with the class. The small things.


Is going to be weird when we start playing the game and from minute 0 we use the new powers. In destiny 1 when new supers where introduced where with a lore story.

On my limited understanding of the published videos.... we ... lose all the light, and then regain it?, but we are the only ones with light?

Random opinions:

By getting pretty much the same game we avoided a bullet. Old game + new skills + new story + new maps + new activities +new weapons is about the better combination that was in the cards. Much better than a completelly new game that had none of the qualities of the original.

My theory is that game developers often don't see the game the same way has us, players, they see different strengths and different qualities. So when they translate a game, they translate what they see and miss the things we consider important. The way they are making Destiny 2, it looks like nothing is going to be lost in translation.

There are things for concern. Slower gameplay is a No Thanks. Part of the joy of a game is ample agile movements. I hope 4vs4 is only one of the gamemodes at 6vs6 exist.

I remain optimist in all areas because "low level RPG game character" is about the most underpower and numb thing in existence. You must start weak, then start the power creep that end you killing gods. If you start killing gods with oneshots, theres not room for grown.

The beta I don't expect to be more than what Destiny 1 beta was.

I liked that being in certain rooms in PvP gives you a little notification on where your at so you can do callouts, the combat seemed way more "punchy" and less "floaty" if that makes sense. I can see where the overwatch comparisons come from but I kind of get more of a futurama feel from the map that I saw.

I thought the ghost dialogue was cute, the floating robot rezzes my rear end constantly so the least I can do is listen to his lovely jokes. I think the protag not speaking a whole lot is good because the only thing they should give a poo poo about is getting better guns, it's Characterization. Strike boss battle looked bad but I liked that drill section with the moving parts, I'm actually kind of bummed I didn't get to see that in game unspoiled. All in all: can't wait to shoot my Nerf Maverick at some retextured brutes from halo

With modern online communities it's almost impossible to give every player their own personal discoveries any more.

Technically is possible, but.. is worth it?

Imagine instead of stock names, weapons had names generated from the seed that decide the perks. Then the name could get has surname the name of the first person to acquire that particular combination of perks.

Then you could make so weapons have a "elite" version with more perks, that are only unlocked after 100 kills. And when somebody do that with a new weapon name, a announcement serverwide shows, and the weapon become available to others in shops.

"Lyudmila-D - Haveblue Elite version available". Your name will be forever part of the weapon you "discovered".

It could be just that the artist are more interesting in making fun/good hunter and warlocks. Is honestly weird that "Blocky - Robot/Soldier-ske" aesthetic is the one that they have problem with in a science-fiction game, of all things.

Maybe my view is biased because I never played the game before The Taken King but this this game is all right by me. Bungie knows how to make solid fps mechanics and I hope Destiny 2 launches with a shitload of content right out of the gate.

Or maybe not. A game with a lot of DLC's have a time, quality and quantity advantage.

Games > Destiny 2 Console Thread: Console Gamers already hate this game

I don't hate Destiny. Or Bungie. Like at all.

The problem here is that Bungie had to add ways to artificially extend the life of the game, and their ideas where worse than a filler episode of Naruto.
So each patch, each DLC, would add things to improve Quality of Life, then break something else somewhere in a move that feels "gently caress you". Theres some sort of different agenda between the devs and the players, where players seems to hate some forms of grind, and Bungie still have to add at least a 3 of these type of elements that people identify has the wrong type of grind. Other types of grind are wellcome. The Books ideas is rather nice done, imho, while is the most obvius excuse possible to extend gameplay, but is wellcome maybe because is optional.

Destiny 2 is a new game and maybe things will be different. If the base game is big enough Bungie don't have to extends things much before of the first DLC.

I loved the Thorn before it got buffed because paint people green. Then it got buffed and I moved to Bad Juju, because in the Iron banner you dont need to reload if you kill somebody before the mag is empty. And then it got buffed. This happend again with the HardLight but it kind of ruined the weapon for me.

My bigger error in destiny pvp is playing Osiris with shotguns instead of fusion rifles. There was my sellout moment. A person that is good with fusion rifles is not scared of anything.

The PC version will have a fov slider, but I don't think is reason enough to choose that platform. Your choice of platform should be guided from where you have more friends. And if is either way, choose console, you will thank me later.

My wishlist for Destiny 3.

You make your character has a hero before the fall. You live in Venus or Mars, in a beautiful city with happy people around creating new technologies.

Each day you takes a car and drives to the Future War Cult offices, where you are connected to a machine where you travel to the future. Theres "insertion points". Places in time and space that are easy to reach by the FWC machine.
Most of the insertion points are historical events, battles. Your mission is to discover what is the darkness. The game play pretty much like a assassin creed game. You slowly uncover what is the darkness, questions are answered and others created, you unlock more and more insertion points, but some of them are corrupted, some of them area paracausical. You suspect theres a conspiracy in your time to cause the fall of humanity.

For Destiny 3 DLC's, I hope we get 6vs6 pvp, and maps where gravity change in different rooms / floors. If we fight in a moon, that gravity where 1/5 of the normal. I wish we get more anime weapons. Like some sort of blade that leave fractures in reality that damage people that walk trough them. Or a pistol that launch a drone that follow you and suicide itself when he see a enemy (with a top of 6 drones orbiting around you).

Do bungie know that Speed=Fun?. Mounted-combat. Firing your guns from the sparrow. Maybe a pvp map with dunes where your characters slide down the hills like forever.
