So you're telling me this *isn't* a prequel? :lol:

Bungie has stated that our characters will carry over to the next game just none of our stuff. Or any important stuff atleast, I'm sure some emblems and maybe shaders will carry over to show you played Destiny 1.

So no, it's not a prequel. :)

Speculation below (https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2017/03/28/lets-read-too-much-into-bungies-destiny-2-teaser/#5a7302c64edb):

The Last City almost had to burn as a way to get Guardians out of the Tower for a sequel. We already know that Destiny will force players to leave pretty much all their gear behind, so it makes sense the game would facilitate this from a lore perspective by destroying the Tower and the vaults it contains. It’s clear Bungie wants Destiny 2 to be a fresh start in a lot of ways, and destroying the Tower/City seems like a way to make that concept a reality.

As for who is attacking? There was that bizarre leak a while back where a line of Destiny toys implied that the Cabal had banded together to attack the city, and it seems possible that could be what’s happening here. I’m inclined to believe it because after the vanilla game and four DLCs, the Cabal have still not really gotten their due in the game.

No way. :lol:

I *so* wish that duels with the Fallen Vandals were possible -- or that there were more seriously beefy Vandals like the Kell throughout the game at least. That's all, I like the simple heads-or-tails action that blocking/slashing offers with the random stagger, it's plenty fine for some casual adventure-game swordfighting. Just need a more fleshed-out extended duel options with the AI.

One-hit kills are just dull.

The melee weapons in the trailer, supers, were a blue Captain America-style ricocheting shield, a purple bo staff, and an orange sword that was used only for slinging fire. They're also showing a bubble shield and a waist-height single direction static shield.

Gameplay-wise I'm not sure what, if anything, is different, but they announced some changes to the game overall that the crowd went crazy for.

- You can go to different worlds without first going to orbit
- All PvP is now 4 on 4
- They've added in-game clan support, with name, motto, banner, and rewards
- Raids and similar can be done in a Guided mode, where a clan puts out looking for 1 or 2 extra slots, which can be filled by single players that get to see the clan name, motto and banner before deciding who to join; the goal was to add matchmaking, without it being a free-for-all where you end up matched up with assholes
- The PC version will be on Blizzard's battle.net

Sadly Activision announced that the PC version doesn't yet have a release date and won't launch when XBone and PS4 versions do. I'm not pre-ordering until they give some more details.

They did mention though
4k Resolution Support (3820×2160)

All the vids look great, Phil -- plot spoilers abound within, folks so be aware!

Looking forward to wielding my Dawnblade... :cool: :up:

(...but let's be honest, I'm looking forward to other Subclasses. :twisted: )


EDIT: Some reaction vids.

:: Dawnblade Warlock ::


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmhr4xuVPIo

-- Bungie has taken the Armor/Weapons of Light away from Titans (maybe?) and given Warlocks this ability in either Healing Rift or Empowering Rift. :up: Or at least the Warlocks gain these powers, which is both cool and proper.

-- Personally I'm not a fan of the floating gun platform ability of the Warlocks but eh I'll make it work. You can see in the vid that the Warlock takes plenty of hits while floating. Phoenix Dive perk or GTFO. Looks like there's an aerial Blazing Dash which will let you dodge, nice!

-- PvP isn't giving me a good look at the melee distance but from what I've seen it looks like the range has been shortened. Peeps are saying melees and grenades are definitely weaker. That will hopefully make it more fun for Kid. ;)


:: Striker Titan ::


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaVjkSWDsBw

-- Barricades, short & tall. Looking forward to seeing how you use these, Phil.

-- Fists of Havok are more useful, good for 5-6 hits.

-- Trample perk looks cool -- every opponent you trample will keep your Shoulder Charge going.


:: Gunslinger Hunter ::


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra1GlrLj8bM

-- Only dirt people play this class. Filthy. Did not watch. ;)

-- I do like how your first two weapons slots are now equal. Doesn't look like there are "Primary", "Secondary" weapons anymore, it's separated by damage type? Would be nice for those of us that want to carry an Auto Rifle and a Handcannon. :up:

I've seen a few threads were people are discussing the Beta and during some of the gameplay footage the character was shown with 98 Legandary marks and 17177 glimmer. Seems odd right. Until you remember that 9-8 is the date for the release of D2. Thus people are speculating that the Beta will be 7-17-17.

And God that would suck. I'll be in Portugal. Grrr. Not really complaining cause I'll be havin a great time but its just bad timing. Hopefully maybe they will release the closed Beta a week or so before hand. Fingers crossed.

They have lots of cool actors as the voices of the main characters.

Grimoire Cards are definitely gone. (https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2017/05/21/bungie-is-ditching-grimoire-cards-in-destiny-2/#54237e7f3d52)


So I asked Bungie's World Lead, Steve Cotton, if Grimoire Cards would play a role in the game and he came back with a resounding "No."

"The answer to that question is 'no' and the reason it's 'no' is because we want to put the lore in the game," Cotton told me. "We want people to be able to find the lore. All the story is told through the Adventures, it's told through the characters in the world, it's told through the campaign and it's told through scannables you find throughout the world."
I wasn't expecting/hoping for a full-on Elder Scrolls storytelling style (with in-game books) but having it all tidy and organized in your menus would be fine. :up:

Phil_SS

Bungie Confirms Destiny 2 Is 30 FPS on Xbox One X

Kchrpm

“We optimize for each platform’s tech to deliver the best social action game experience we can. Period,” stated Noseworth on Twitter. “All consoles will run at 30fps to deliver D2‘s AI counts, environment sizes, and # of players. They are all CPU-bound.”

Phil_SS

:erm:

They have to keep all consoles locked at the same FPS. So my 3 year old Xbox One can compete with a brand new Xbox One X. And a PS4 can compete with a PS4 Pro. It would be a huge advantage in PvP for one person to be at 60 FPS and another at 30 FPS. It would kill their console sales if they allowed that to happen.

But the benefit you will get is that the more powerful machines will be able to run native 4K.

No new information on The Darkness or The Exo Stranger in Destiny 2. (https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2017/06/15/bungie-has-written-the-darkness-and-the-exo-stranger-out-of-destiny-2/#2bded7c27f2f)


“At a point, just totally candidly, we had no idea what [The Darkness] was. Straight up, we had no clue. We didn’t know what it was. For a period, we chose we were going to lump all the races, and you can see this in the tool tips in the game: “Minions of the Darkness.” And we had taken all the races and said, ‘Ah, they just all be The Darkness.’"

"But that’s not what he IP deserves. It’s literally not. And so, what we’re doing with Destiny is we are deliberately telling a story about the Light and what it means to be chosen. And as such, we are in the process of removing the term “The Darkness” from the game because when we are going to talk about Darkness next, we need to know what it is and have a plan for it. And we do.”
Heh I've always thought Joseph Staten (the lead Bungie writer for Destiny) did know what The Darkness was -- and that Jason Jones' leadership team ripped it out from under him. Kookie.

Phil_SS
June 16th, 2017, 11:55 AM
Who knows? Don't care. :assclown:

As anybody who played Vanilla Destiny the story was complete crap. I'm fine with "starting over" with a more coherent story line.

novicius
June 16th, 2017, 12:01 PM
Definitely, it was a complete decentralizing of a single-threaded tale. It was the teams' attempt to sew together a box of corn flakes by the time of release. :lol:

Jason Jones wanted players to go "open world" on the Solar System -- and what JJ wants, JJ gets.


(But it doesn't sound like they're starting over per se; just that Luke Smith is directing the writing team to present a much more coherent villain the next time The Darkness is referenced.)

Godson
June 16th, 2017, 12:05 PM
This is interesting, because I thought the light was literally what we as a race were, like 'our story's if you will.


I'm interested to hear what they actually call the darkness.

novicius
June 16th, 2017, 12:14 PM
The Darkness (https://www.destinypedia.com/Grimoire:Enemies/Darkness).


Something hit us. Killed our Golden Age. Nearly wiped us out. Only the Traveler saved us, and at a shattering cost.

The Speaker tells of a cosmic force that swept over us and caused the Collapse. Legend calls it the Darkness, the Traveler's ancient enemy, which hunted it across space.

All we have left are questions. Centuries of debate gave birth to competing arguments on the nature of the Darkness and the Collapse.
The Taken King grimoire cards were descriptive enough, I thought. A malevolent will, a voice like a deity speaking to Oryx -- and all the implied galaxy-crushing weight behind it.

Bungie says that guns won't have any recoil in 'Destiny 2' on PC. (https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2017/06/22/bungie-says-that-guns-wont-have-any-recoil-in-destiny-2-on-pc/#5d199b154a67)


"We may look in a few places where weapons needed to be handled differently, and we'll treat them slightly differently," Noseworthy said.

"For instance, there's no recoil on guns on PC because recoil on the controller feels really good. 'I'm firing, I'm firing, oh, I'm losing control of my gun a little bit.' That feels great, especially with magnetism and all the magic in the controller that makes you feel it. With a mouse and keyboard, you don't want the mouse moving without you moving it, so recoil doesn't feel good, so there is no recoil on PC."

Destiny players invested in the game, and we just want the same from Bungie. (https://www.polygon.com/2017/6/20/15757882/destiny-items-collectibles-guns-destiny-2)


Dedicated players already have a complicated relationship with Destiny; nobody loves it unreservedly. Even players like me, who have played it for hundreds or thousands of hours over the span of three years, tend to have serious grievances with the game. In fact, the most dedicated players are likely to be the angriest about the way their commitment and investment has been treated by Bungie, and with good reason. As has often been the case with previous Destiny updates, the new sequel comes with a slap in the face to committed Destiny fans.

In March, Bungie announced that when players transition to the new game, none of their stuff — none of their gear, none of their currencies and none of their cosmetics — will be going with them to the sequel.

This might seem routine to some observers. Call of Duty players, for example, spend real money on supply drops containing weapon skins and avatar customizations knowing that they’ll be leaving that stuff behind when they transition to a next annual Call of Duty iteration.

But Destiny isn’t Call of Duty; it more closely resembles PC franchises that are handled like services, with the expectation being that fans play for years and grow along with the updates and story.

Thoughts PCMASTERRACE?

I have a feeling this quote was worded in a strange way.

Recoil is handled in two ways usually. When you're true aim is some unknown area above the crosshair as you fire full auto, and when the crosshair and true aim are ALWAYS one-to-one (crosshair jumps up as gun recoils).

Basically, CSGO vs Halo.

If there's really no recoil at all, I have to question that choice. If he's saying the crosshair won't recoil, I'm inclined to think that's a very good decision.

This doesn't make sense:


All in, if you want to fill up your emote kiosks, collected all the holiday and SRL mounts and chased down the rare-drop Halloween masks? You could have spent $400 on Destiny microtransactions, likely under the mistaken belief that your collection of cosmetics would follow you throughout the decade of Destiny adventures Bungie had planned for your persistent characters.

And, by the way, if you bought a $50 bundle of currency and didn’t spend it all, that won’t be carrying over to the new game either!

Bungie Reveals Some Of Destiny 2's Rewards For Returning Destiny Players (https://www.gamespot.com/articles/bungie-reveals-some-of-destiny-2s-rewards-for-retu/1100-6451184/)


Although you can't carry over your items and skills from Destiny to Destiny 2, your looks will transfer, and you may be entitled to some exclusive rewards. Bungie has detailed what some of these look like, including a few you still have a chance to earn.
Hey at least Phil will have a full complement of emblems! ;) :up:

Kchrpm
June 26th, 2017, 11:19 AM
So is it possible/likely that, when it comes to tuning gameplay, you can't just bring over all the weapons/armor/etc if you're also changing gameplay detail stuff? And it'd be a PITA to keep all of the items and tweak them?

But it couldn't be *that* bad...*overthinks*

novicius
June 26th, 2017, 11:32 AM
Could be something to do with leaving the old Tiger game engine, maybe the old assets didn't look good in 4K and would be far too much work to update/animate them? Who knows?

But it's tough not to trust Luke Smith & The Taken King team tho'. My own belief is that a lot of Destiny players are keeping quiet to see what Bungie's premier writing/dev team have come up with. If it's great then all will be forgiven. :up:

Phil_SS
June 26th, 2017, 12:55 PM
Hey at least Phil will have a full complement of emblems! ;) :up:

I won't get Laura Prima II as I did not complete the Year One moments of triumph. My one regret, although F Skolas! NOt having any checkpoints for that fight was bullshit.

I think people have to realize that all those game elements like armor and weapons etc were built on a platform that had to be accessible by X360 and PS3 platforms. Destiny 2 is being built from the ground up to work on Xbone/PS4 and up platforms and will have the ability to be 4K and HDR.

Thus they only have so much time to model all of the equipment etc. And thus, spending time to model all of the old stuff to be capable in 4K plus make all new stuff probably was impossible. We know everyone is going to expect a whole bunch of new stuff. Plus all of the parameters in the background that control the guns and interactions.

I know it is a disappointment but I'm fine with starting over.

The only part I'm kinda like, hmmm, is the emblems and shaders. That makes me go :erm: if those don't come over.

21Kid
June 26th, 2017, 02:19 PM
So, the only thing transferring over is your look. :erm: Which can be recreated in under 5 minutes, and you never see because you have armor on? Awesome!

Considering they had a 10 year lifecycle in mind the whole time, I am disappointed that it is all starting over. They should have planned for this from the get-go. They should have had a plan for upgrading the graphics, etc... past the X360s lifetime. #amdisappoint

Destiny 2 – Everything we know so far (https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/6dhdzw/destiny_2_everything_we_know_so_far/)



Grenade launchers and SMGs added - Heavy MGs not shown (Reports they have been removed)
No mo' Heavy Machine Guns?? #amcry



= Public Events confirmed and timers will be shown on the map. Heroic difficulties applicable (No confirmation how to access these)

= Hidden dungeons called "Lost Sectors". These will be Sections on the map (Shown with a special symbol) where you will adventure to. There will be Loot guarded by a Boss, defeat the boss to get the Key to the Loot. These will vary in difficulty and be very engaging and fun. No confirmation if these will be random bosses / How often loot is obtainable from them / allow random players in them like a Public Event if you go in Solo

= Map system that works like the Director. You can go from one planet to another from the map without the need to go to Orbit and back

= It has been confirmed D2 will hold 'Flashpoints. Luke Smith has described this as - That every week one of the locations will be featured and have special attributes for that week. He explains this as the flashpoint location having things like special monsters, treasure maps, events and rewarding very powerful nightfall tier rewards. Also, he says that a new event exists on planets when the enemy factions rally, and explained it as "monsters doing a bunch of stuff", but didn't elaborate any further.

= Guided Games: where solo players can queue up with a Clan that has open slots. Basically an in-game LFG system but with groups from clans instead of randoms all around. Guided Games will only support matchmaking for Normal activities NOT Heroic (Raids, Nightfall) as per Luke Smith. No word on if Trials is included in this or not at this point
Just some other random points that caught my eye (and may have already been mentioned here, no big deal). :cool:

From an interview I heard in a podcast, yes, as long as you're on Normal difficulty for the activity then Guided Games should work.

Here's a question for the Destiny-faithful: if they had not used the 10-year wording in their initial statements, did the rest of the marketing/experience make it seem like this was going to be a game that was endlessly updated or with persistent character progression throughout updates? I've never played a game or series that had that, really, so I don't know how it would be communicated in-game, if at all.

novicius
June 27th, 2017, 11:34 AM
My $0.02:


...maybe the old assets didn't look good in 4K and would be far too much work to update/animate them?
I feel like Bungie should have clarified their 10-year boast. Recalibrate expectations. Redefine the message. Then it isn't so sheepishly danced around for years before finally admitting that our Year 1-2-3 gear isn't going to be updated from 720p to 4K.

Obsoleting the gear always hurts (see YW's reaction to anything Destiny after the House of Wolves update :lol:). No way around that. But it's comforting to have. #shrug


EDIT: I suppose I should mention that I paid my $105 for the mega D2 pre-order (yes, I am part of the problem) today. XBONE HD space cleared out for the July 19th Beta and everythang. :hard:

novicius
June 27th, 2017, 12:15 PM
Yeah but odds are you're a tiny fraction of players who do that, Cam. :D #deleted

If you don't pre-order D2, you won't have access to the Beta until July 21st @ 10 AM PDT.

The D2 Beta ends for everyone on July 23rd @ 9 AM PDT.

::


What content can we play in the BETA?
Story Mission 'Homecoming' - A Strike (Inverted Spire) - New PvP Gamemode 'Countdown' - Few extras not yet revealed. It was also confirmed that ALL subclasses will be available to play in the Beta.


What was in the Destiny 2 Reveal?
The Destiny 2 reveal was broadcast on May 18th from Hawthorne, Los Angeles showcasing new features coming with Destiny 2 and also showed us for the first time, D2 Gameplay. The attendees were given access to 1 new story mission, ‘Homecoming’, 1 new Strike ‘The Inverted Spire’ and 1 new PVP gamemode, Countdown (Showcased on 1 new map).
So basically I'm expecting the same shizz from the D2 Reveal party. :up:

It does look like a smaller, tighter list of things than in the original Destiny Beta which included the Cosmodrome as an open world space to play in.

novicius
June 29th, 2017, 10:04 AM
I know it is a disappointment but I'm fine with starting over.

The only part I'm kinda like, hmmm, is the emblems and shaders. That makes me go :erm: if those don't come over.
Man, if Bungie flushes the D1 Grimoire down the toilet I'm gonna be really really sad.

It was *so* well conceived, such an incredible trail of breadcrumbs. Heartbreaking. :smh: :down:


EDIT: I should stress that Bungie's Luke Smith & other devs have said in interviews that D1 should be viewed as "Destiny 0" and that D2 is going to be the new canon, much like the Disney Star Wars retcon.

So I'm just hoping that we'll still have the bulk of the Grimoire with more of a refinement and/or culling of lore vs a wholesale deletion like Disney did. I mean FFS, Luke Smith's team wrote all of The Taken King lore (and presumably much of the Vanilla D1 lore as well)!

But if we are ever to get the Warmind Rasputin back into its cage, we'll need the Cosmodrome (in 4K)... :rawk: #hoping #dreaming

In all honesty, much of the tone of the Grimoire cards didn't match the lore -- far too conversational from alien beings discussing alien concepts. Not nearly enough allegory.

It should'a been like deciphering Nostradamus or the Bible. ;)

Meh, the in-game script & game/plot writing is still pretty uninspiring (and that's putting it lightly!) -- just dropped into a generic newbie loadout with no explanation as to why you're suddenly carrying these weak weapons?? Bah. :down:

So, I'm digging the fuck out of this game.

I think the story is going to be tits, and I can't wait to fuck up that big fucker.

The change in weapons is interesting. It'll force you to run different loadouts depending on situation.

I'm going to miss the overall readout on gear for health Regen, mobility, etc.

I like how the ships don't look so fucken dorky, and that you get one ship platform, and multiple color swathes for the chassis. Versus the previous layout.

Golden gun is way more fun, but will require some more work, the new 'blade-dancer is pretty slick too.

The raid that is available isn't a walk in the park. The group I was with had to run it a few times to get an idea on what we needed to do.

This game is going to be great.

I'm all about the Void, whether it's Voidwalker Warlock or Sentinel Titan. :up:

I started out on the Arcstrider Hunter and it's fun -- but I can't do work with it. #deleted

::

My thoughts so far: it's good. :D :up:

They've slowed down the walking speed a bit but it's not a bad thing. Titan skating can still happen, it's just about as fast as sprinting.

Supers take much longer to charge. You get roughly 3 it seems throughout the 3-player co-op Strike and it doesn't last long. You can throw your Void Shield only twice during a Super. Definitely not gonna be firing that thing with any regularity -- pick a target, pop the Super, throw, bash Ads and throw one more time at the end. Done.

Looks sharp. Really nice specular effects. Nice lighting. Texture sizes/quality seem lower tho.

Must buy? Hmm. For Destiny fans, yes. For new buyers I really can't say that it's offering anything over D1. Looks sharper, areas are larger and more epic, that's about it but if you didn't buy in on D1 I haven't seen what will convince you now -- it's still a grind. ;)

A few days into the Beta now and the new dominant meta is teamshotting.

Could be argued that this was always the meta but now that D2 is heavy on the gunplay, teamshotting (getting as many of your teammates & you to shoot at the same opponent) is king.

Well in D1 you could literally 1-shot kill (or at least get the Time To Kill down so tight that teamshotting wasn't necessary).

But now? In the Beta if you want to melt someone in PvP you need to teamshot if you don't have Heavy ammo. Everybody is spongy and the Kinetic/Energy weapons all give you an opening to make a run for it if you don't like how your 1v1 begins, IMO.

I wish they would have some kind of restriction around that, it's so frustrating :| Don't let me start it until there's at least 15 minutes of gameplay or something! The NBA 2K series has an easy solution, it just loads up a practice gym and a non-descript player and lets you mess around like you're just practicing (I can't remember if it loads AI teammates/opponents). If you want to lie about how soon a game can be launched, at least figure out something like that.

Oh my this game looks pretty. I did the raid on the Inverted Spire, with the cubic structures in muted white with red foliage growing all over it. It took me half a minute to stop gawking at the scenery and eventually find my way to where I was supposed to be going. Epic. Fucking epic.

The game feels like pure Bungee, reminds me quite a bit of Halo (but of course it would!) with the only drawback being that the walking speed seems very slow. And I've just got to figure out what the heck I'm doing.

I'm not gunna buy it tho - I don't have enough time to sink into a deeply open-ended game like this. Well I do, but I don't want to be sucked into it.

Once Carlo showed Cam and I the rotating super gameplay style, my enjoyment of the game increased. I just can't help but think that the game would be a lot more fun for me if the supers were toned down and available all the time, instead of guns. However, it would be a lot less fun for all the people that want to collect/compare/modify/etc various guns, and a lot less profitable for the makers of the game, so I don't expect it to happen.

Did you walk through the Vex milk, the radiolaria? Makes me wonder if there's going to be symbiotic zooxanthelle as a Vex element. Quite a bit of lore in the Inverted Spire strike that's very cool to me. Lovin' it. :up:

I took Cam & Keith up to the doorway of the Lost Sector on the Cistern at the beginning of the Strike. We scaled it and tried to walk around it, eventually getting caught in the ragged structure (both Cam & I had to go to orbit and back to get free). There's a jump ring that appears occasionally that kicks off a jumping/fighting puzzle nearby -- folks are wondering if that's how we'll eventually open the door to the Lost Sector.

The 3rd & 4th voices that speak to you during the Strike come from the Failsafe AI from the ancient Golden Age ship Exodus Black. This ship is different than the crashed colony ship that is visible at the beginning of the Strike. Contains SIVA... and probably Fallen. Most loremasters are thinking that Failsafe's split personalities are probably due to rampancy. Could Failsafe end up pulling a 343 Guilty Spark: nice at first and an enemy later?

Good stuff. :up: :up:

Keith: That's sort of how Mass Effect plays. Every class has 3 'powers' that recharge over a few seconds. Some classes use more of the powers than guns, and others are the opposite. The multiplayer aspect is pretty limited though. There are only a few rotating maps that are the size of the crucible maps.

Nolanbot says something like "Oooh can we stop at the Vex milk falls?!" as you go jumping by after the first data spire you activate in the Inverted Spire strike.

If you turn right at the start of the Strike and either fight/run past the Fallen vs Vex fight, you can go into the milk river -- did you do that? It will cause damage over time and every time you take damage the words "Radiolaria Fluid" show up on the lower left-hand side of your screen.


EDIT: Also remember, you can peruse the Destinypedia (https://www.destinypedia.com/), so information about Nessus (https://www.destinypedia.com/Nessus), Failsafe (https://www.destinypedia.com/Failsafe) and Exodus Black (https://www.destinypedia.com/Colony_ship) has been known for awhile.

Woah that's all way over my head. I can only deal with one game's lore at a time and since I was a kid it's only been the deep and complex political wranglings of the Mushroom Kingdom.

Regarding the Inverted Spire, I played it again last night and it turns out that I missed most of the level on my first play through. I must've spawned into a half-completed game as all I could see where two player icons floating about two miles from me. All I could do was trek off in that direction and I felt I was getting close, but then I suddenly teleported into the thick of the boss battle.

Interesting, I thought the same level was quite dull and disappointing, just shows varied tastes and opinions.

The game is technically brilliant, we can agree on that, so even the boring stuff looks great. And Bungie has always been very liberal with the different scene variety they've given us.

But most games, even from Bungie, consist of all the same types of scenarios. Rolling grassy hills, or a desert level, or a snow level, forest and fog, or a space station, or a crumbling city. You know, the usual FPS or adventure game trope.

But this level looks like nothing I've ever seen before in any video game. It's stunning. I'd stop and look at the tops of the very geometric square cliffs and it would look like some dystopian painting on a bad acid trip. It's as if Bungie were finally free to turn the art department up to eleventy-thousand, and having rock solid image quality for fine details helps immeasurably. It's like the perfect melding of tech and art.

Now, I could swear blind that I'd seen something like this before, but on canvass. So I looked it up, and I had! Zdzisław Beksiński (pronounced "Zd-jee-swaf Bek-skin-ski") is the artist, known for being able to 'paint your nightmares', and a lot of heavy metal bands have used his work as album covers. I highly recommend you look him up. If Bungie's art team hasn't been heavily influenced by this artist then I don't know what to say. I'm impressed.

Two-man completion of the Spire strike last night with another experienced gamer on my Friends List, we were able to generate x3 Super uses by alternating orb drops. If we had fought in the Fallen vs Vex skirmish at the beginning of the strike, we could have had x4.

Now, I could swear blind that I'd seen something like this before, but on canvass. So I looked it up, and I had! Zdzisław Beksiński (pronounced "Zd-jee-swaf Bek-skin-ski") is the artist, known for being able to 'paint your nightmares', and a lot of heavy metal bands have used his work as album covers. I highly recommend you look him up. If Bungie's art team hasn't been heavily influenced by this artist then I don't know what to say. I'm impressed.
Also look at the art of John Harris. (http://www.alisoneldred.com/artistJohnHarris.html) :up:

Destiny 2 Digital Pre-load: Coming Soon
Players who have digitally pre-ordered Destiny 2 will be able to pre-load the game starting next week. Xbox One pre-loading will begin early next week, while PlayStation 4 pre-loading will become available on August 31, 2017. Announcements of pre-load availability will be made through @BungieHelp on Twitter.
Destiny 2 will also receive a Day 1 Update, which will become available closer to the release of Destiny 2.

Yup. That's how they get you to buy digital.

As much as I love the concept. I'm still not completely there, as I get a good chunk of my games used for cheap. And can then sell/trade, etc... my other games that I no longer use. Which you can't do with digital yet. I don't see why you can't assign your digital game to a friend yet though. :? If it removes your access and gives it to whomever you 'gift' the game to. What's the problem? Oh yeah... they don't make $$$ on that. :(

I saw a post on Destiny the Game that showed the difference in FOV and it wasn't as drastic as I thought or as much as people were saying it would be. Would I like to have a greater FOV, ofcourse. But unless I was running the games, PC vs Console, side by side I wouldn't know the difference.

Out of site out of mind.

And it's not so much of a difference that would make me spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on a PC to make up the difference. Plus I just want to sit back and enjoy a game. Being hunched over a keyboard isn't my thing. :)

Have to say, it does look pretty good on PC, but not mindblowingly so. I think 'functional' describes it best compared to the best PC games. Runs very smoothly though on my GTX1080 @ 2560x1080 and is full screen, even in the cutscenes!

Such a shame they've cut the beta back so much. many will play it and there's little to no drops at all other than Ammo and no real clue of what's happening or what to do. It could potentially put a lot of people off. Tried some MP tonight and it was awful. There's currently a bug/feature where if you're using a pad on the PC then the auto-aim or aim assist is way, way stronger than it should be so players are getting headshots with handcannons with stunning regularity. I can't see me playing this PVP very much at all but for PVE I could play the hell out of it. Keeping my standard edition order but holding off the season pass just now.

Went through the beta last night with a buddy. Pretty great! Aiming feels smooth and crisp. Just wish there was maybe 1 more piece of single player content.

The game did glitch after defending the tower with Zavala... went through the portion afterwards and the little jump ship to take you to the enemy ship just sat there. Never went to cutscene. I think I got stuck in someone else's instance. Which, BTW, that was pretty cool to see people jump in and out as you help Zavala.

Played two rounds of crucible and had a blast. But that's because we won pretty handily. Hand cannon is just unfair, but feels too good not to use.

FYI, in other parts of the world the game will be released when the timezone hits 12AM on Sept 6, but for the US or maybe even NA they are considering it as one big timezone. Thus when US/NA EST hits 12AM, Sept 6th everyone in the US/NA will be able to play.

So, Carlo will be able to log on at 11PM CST, Sept 5th and Kid will be able to log on at 9PM PST, Sept 5th.

TBH while they're decent, the game's graphics, at least in the beta are good, but not great. In fact I'd go so far as to call them 'functional'. We'll see how things are in the full release, but there's a reason why people are talking about great FPS, even at 4k. The graphics ain't all that.

Some early recommendations on D2 guns from a Crucible player:



Better Devils - This 140 rpm handcannon comes with Explosive Payload and we all got to play with it in the Beta. Dropped for me after a Crucible match.

Scathelocke - 600 rpm auto rifle. The combination of HCR and the revamped Persistence perks make for short work in medium range. Tip: use the long range scope. Dropped for me as an EDZ faction reward.


Lincoln Green - 540 rpm pulse rifle with 18 damage for headshots, it's a long-range 4-burst kill. Its got Steady Rounds and Quick Draw perks. Dropped for me as an EDZ faction reward.


Foggy Notion - A Suros 900 rpm SMG. Really effective at close range, my guess is the Aim Assist is top tier. Dropped for me from a Legendary engram.


Uriel's Gift - My go-to weapon so far. It's a 450 rpm Auto Rifle. The thing is its got 3 stability-type perks to help it along with an enemy highlight Omolon scope. Precision Frame makes recoil more vertical. Steady Rounds increases stability at the cost of range. Tap the Trigger grants a period of increased stability on initial trigger pull. It's a laser beam, effective at long range. Dropped form me for a gunsmith rank up.


Edited for grammar and formatting. ;)

Infusing gear tips (https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/6ymgts/infusion_of_gear_only_takes_base_level_into/):

I'm seeing a lot of folks complaining about infusing 275 gear into 260 gear and only raising it to 270.

This has happened because that gear has had a +5 modifier on it and so it's base stat is only at 270. I believe ALL Exotics have this modifier, and on the flip side this means that if you have 265 piece that includes a +5 modifier (so 260 base + 5 modifier) and infuse it with a 270 piece (a 10-pt increase), your gear will jump to 275!

Use this to your advantage people!

Good as in looks cool, maybe I would agree, good as in it makes a difference in the PvE world, I would disagree.

For Destiny 1, There wasn't a gun or piece of armor that could only be obtained in the PvP world that made a gameplay difference in the PvE world. :) I guess we'll see with Destiny 2, but I doubt they have changed the formula.

Phil_SS
September 8th, 2017, 05:33 AM
The campaign so far is really well done and is actually coherent and riveting. :up:

So far this has been a truly fantastic game and it's only getting better. The destinations are so varied now, they truly feel like different places. In Destiny 1 they all kind of melted together, except the Dreadnaught, like it was the same place but with different textures etc. Just not much variation.

Adventures are like Destiny 1 campaign missions, but now they are strewn through out each destination. Public Events are fun and varied with some of them having raid style functions that when achieved transform it into a Heroic Public Event.

Some people are saying it is like an expansion, that it isn't different enough, but there is no way you could have added this game to Destiny 1. Just no way. Everything has been brought up at least a couple levels and the game has become more refined.

Cam
September 8th, 2017, 05:58 AM
I didn't have high hopes, but I agree that they stepped it up. The game looks phenomenal and there is a story this time. I am enjoying it so far. My fear is that the main story will only be five or six hours of game play. (Halo 5 anyone?) :rolleyes:

Question: I don't like PvP and I usually don't like multi games, especially without a story, but Destiny has always intrigued me... is it possible to play it solo?
I'd wait the PC version anyway, so there's no hurry.

With Solo I don't mean as a single player game offline, just... can the game be tackled online *without* the need of a party?

Cam
September 8th, 2017, 06:27 AM
Yes, you can play the story solo just fine. Destiny requires an online connection to play. There is a PvE option that will match you up with two random team mates, which is fine most of the time. You can't really grief your team mates. The worst thing that happens is that you get someone who just sits there and does not do anything.

Destiny 2 Expansion I: Curse of Osiris continues your Guardian’s journey with all-new story missions and adventures set in a new destination, Mercury. Journey through time and space to learn the secrets of Osiris, avert a dark future, and rebuild the ties between the legendary Warlock and his greatest student - Ikora Rey.

With Solo I don't mean as a single player game offline, just... can the game be tackled online *without* the need of a party?

I just want to clarify what Cam stated. The PvE option he mentioned is only for specific tasks and it isn't an option. For specific missions/events, there is Matchmaking where you will be matched up with other Guardians. But as Cam stated, the only thing they can do is go AFK, because there is no team killing in Destiny. But 99% of the Guardians are there to help and to complete the event.

Here is a list of the current events in Destiny 2 and if they have Matchmaking:

Campaign: No Matchmaking
This is the main story line of the game and it can be enjoyed alone or with two other friends.

Patrol: No Matchmaking
This is the wander around the world and collect stuff and kill stuff part of the game. It can be enjoyed alone or with up to a three guardian fireteam. But because you are in a MMO, other people will be killing things and trying to find things as well in the game universe.

Public Events: No Matchmaking
These events happen in the game universe and the goal is to pull in guardians from all over the world/universe to participate together to complete a goal. They can be enjoyed alone or with up to a three guardian fireteam. But because you are in a MMO, other people will be participating in the Public Event.

Flashpoints: No Matchmaking
These are completed by participating in multiple Public Events on the specific world. They can be enjoyed alone or with up to a three guardian fireteam. But because you are in a MMO, other people will be participating in the Public Events. Flashpoints are a weekly event.

Adventures: No Matchmaking
These are short world specific missions. They take you on a journey on that specific world. They can be enjoyed alone or with up to a three guardian fireteam.

Strikes: Matchmaking
These are medium length world specific missions. There is matchmaking to fill up the 3 guardian fireteam. If you already have two other friends in your fireteam then there is no matchmaking.

Nightfall Strikes: No Matchmaking
These are medium length world specific missions with modifiers. Modifiers do things like; you take extra damage while in the air or your grenade energy loads twice as fast, etc. They can be enjoyed alone or with up to a three guardian fireteam. They can be very very hard alone. Nightfalls are a weekly event.

Raid: No Matchmaking
This will be an extensive world specific mission requiring a cooperative fireteam of 6. Highly recommended. You can certainly get great enjoyment out of Destiny without participating in a Raid but you will be missing the best mechanical part of the game. Raids are a weekly event.

*Weekly events give rewards only on a weekly basis. You can run them again but you won’t get rewards from them.

How's the first expansion (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/destiny-2-expansion-i-curse-of-osiris/c4s6htbkv5hq?wa=wsignin1.0#pdpbundles)? :smh:


COD, Madden, etc... release games every year with no problem. I don't see why people would want Destiny to only offer expansions, instead of a full new game.

I'm the exact opposite. I can't stand the crap that comes out of the CoD and Madden world. I would rather they took the time to make a good game and then had expansions instead of releasing the same crap every year. But trying to state it is better and different.

Honestly, why does Madden have a new version every year? Why can't they just release a service pack or a roster pack for the next season?

Thank you Phil, it seems at least Campaign, Patrol and few others could hold my interest if the story is well included and present!
Is the game cross platform? Not that it is that important, but still...

Did up through the traveler shard with all three characters on PS4. Good stuff. Any of you on PS4?


I'm online as CoagulantDog. I'm online most nights CST from 7-12pm.

Do we have others names on PS2?

Well, yes. SO I can continue reading the thread without seeing, or choosing to see, important points before I play the game myself. I'm avoiding all video's about game until launch too
