This is the most half assed fucking sequel of all time, it's the same god damn game. I hate it because I was really excited for a Destiny 2, I liked the first game. It wasn't very good but it had serious potential to be an amazing game if they improved some stuff and added things, I really wanted to see a sequel realize that but we get this rehash garbage.

Why even ask the question? The beta has so little content that of COURSE everyone will play both.
PvE is just a single Strike and PvP are 2 game modes with a map each.

So do you think that the game is worth the 60bucks that they are asking for?

This Destiny raids are by far the best raid in any mmo.

I just pre-ordered on Amazon, and cancelled the order once they gave me my code. I'mma roll a hunter because that's what I played on PS4 for like 200 hours I plan to stick to pve stuff because pvp in destiny 1 was butt unless it was iron banana or trials of osaris.

No, way different.
That's like comparing Warframe to FF14. One is more focused on killing hundreds of weak minions and getting constant little loot variations (much like Diablo), the other is more structured with Dungeons and Raids as its end-game.

While yes technically Warframe has "dungeons" and PvP, they are both incredibly shitty and barely anyone plays them or thinks of them as the core of the game. Each game has its own advantages and disadvantages but they truly can't be compared, they don't fill the same niche at all.

Warframe = Survival and Defence modes (mostly)
Destiny = Raids with bosses and actual party synergy on voice chat, and PvP (mostly)

>>388522581
Did that guy just destroy a space ship at full health with a knife? Wow what a great game.

>>388522936
no and thats good fuck games with healer and tank meta cancer literally makes the game low skill.

>>388522936
There is no holy trinity, if that's what you're asking. Everyone does damage because everyone has their own guns, but every class has their own way to provide support. One guy puts up a shield wall, one guy can drop an AoE that buffs, and one guy can sidestep.

>>388521717

I think they're stupid. It's all such forced teamwork. Makes you feel like a bunch of rats in a box trying to figure out how to get the cheese. I'd rather just fight a big boss desu.

But that's an unpopular opinion of an antisocial. Grouping up with randoms and trying to finish raids was far and away the worst part of the game for me.

Destiny and The Division are both cut from the same cloth as Borderlands, except they have more emphasis on being a multiplayer experience instead of merely a singleplayer game that can be played co-op. If you played the original Phantasy Star Online, Destiny will feel vaguely familiar to you.

>>388523349
they're called strikes. they get repetitive fairly quickly but they have different modifiers to it every week, so there's that. The Raids are where the fun is at.

>>388523432
These games should be considered like Diablo if they were a first-person shooter (Destiny) or a third-person cover shooter (The Division).

Whatever you do don't go to the /vg/ thread. Absolute cancer there.

There's no direct comparison to Destiny in the MMO genre, the closest you can get is GuildWars (the first) plus WoW/FF14.
The way maps, campaign, instancing and lobbies work in Destiny are quite different to any individual MMO/pseudo-MMO

>>388522936
>>388523245
There is no trinity but there are class synergies. It's up to your firends to decide how to face a challenge though. On Raids you have teams of 6. Some bosses requrie you to split by half or thirds, so you build buddy-squads for each fight. Boss fights are puzzle/platformer/phase based where responsability is assigned to each player, rather than just using aggro mechanics and healers.

>>388523349
Strikes are the closest thing to a WoW dungeon, but they are shorter. Usually 2 bosses per Strike. They don't have a weekly limit so they serve as something to do on repeat after a while, although the first few times are still fun.

However there's a weekly challenge that gives you good gear from those Strikes called Nightfall. Basically the Strikes become much harder with random modifiers to them. Since you have 3 character slots you can do 3 Nightfalls per week.

Raids in Destiny are also shorter than WoW raids (party of 6) but they are just as fun IMO. The first time you do it, if you go in blind, may last for days. I remember the first raid ever took me and my friends 3 days to complete (of course due to scheduling issues not all of us could play together all day long). Although we were underleveled and undergeared too. Another fun part of Raids is to discover all hidden chests (pic related).
Raids themselves also have a hard-mode with better loot similar to Nightfall in Strikes. You can complete each raid 3 times per week.

Nah. You'll be at a disadvantage in PVP, though not by much since gunplay actually did get some tweaks even if people say otherwise. Biggest indicator of if you'll do well depends largely on how good you were at halo 2 and 3.

While I can't speak to Destiny's exact structure, The Division works in much the same way, although anyone can equip certain skills (and an ultimate Signature Skill) and talents out of three different skill trees to create your own loadout that, combined with your gear, lets you fulfill multiple different roles in a squad.
>Medical tree lets you pulse enemies to see them through walls and get a damage bonus, drop a targeted AoE heal or a deployable that automatically heals, and the ult provides a massive heal and free revive to all allies in your squad
>Tech tree gives you damaging skills like a sticky bomb, a personal turret or a seeker mine that rolls towards enemies, and the ult massively boosts your squad's damage and fire rate for a few seconds
>Security tree gives you defensive skills like a personal ballistic shield you hold in front of you that draws threat, deployable cover you can duck behind, or improving the cover you're already behind, and the ult provides major damage mitigation and prevents lethal damage
Each skill (outside the ult) has a subvariant you can equip. You can only equip up to two skills and one ult at a time.

The biggest concern you should have is that it's still being published by the activision half of actiblizz, and they have a long, fabled track record of not giving a fuck about hackers. I'm super wary given the latest few call of duties having hacks carry over from the beta and still function. It's the division all over again.

>>388525352
Yes and no. Still RNG drops, but guns now have set perks with mod slots that you can add additional features to a gun. No more looking for the rare roll on the rare gun, just need the gun. So same shit with less stink.

Are they like massive boss rights that push your personal skills to the limit?
Or are they like MMORPG raid bosses where you have to perform a coordinated dance routine with 24 other people and the difficulty comes from having to make bunch of people act in sync?

the latter. most stages of the raid have mechanics that need be done in between DPS phases. the areas between the boss fights are filled with platforming puzzles that are generally absent from the rest of the game.

If it's anything like the first game, it's basically just hide in cover and slowly chip away at some giant boss health. From time to time they drop a shitload amount of minion enemies to push you out of cover. And from time to time you have to get out to revive your dumb allies and try not to get wiped since you're the last sucker alive.

>fuck this fast and lightweight launcher i want the full steam bloat experience!!

>>388529216
Nah I just have a hate for actiblizzard for some reason. Probably shitstone.

Raids are 6 man activities with no matchmaking, so you have to find a team yourself. The reason that is is because they feature teamwork challenges and communication unfound in any other activity. An archetypical raid could be described in three phases: the first boss, which introduces the core mechanics of the entire raid, a mid-boss, which is usually more like an extended puzzle than a boss, and the final boss, which essentially takes all of the challenges of the raid and throws them at you at once. For instance in the Vault of Glass, the Templar's Well introduces the Confluxes, Oracles, and the Aegis, which all carry through to the final boss encounter. There also typically jumping puzzles/platforming challenges in between, which from a design standpoint are supposed to be "cooldown" periods where you can joke around and laugh with your buddies after all the crazy combat is finished.

Raids are a lot of fun, but you kind of have to experience one before you can really understand what they are. If you like FPS games and have a penchant for fantasy RPGs and loot games as well, I can't recommend Destiny enough

Anyone here have some codes left?

I can't wait for PC to feel the slow as fuck PvP and the even slower PvE

>>388528276
A bit of both. Although the actions you have to take are harder than a MMO because you actually have to aim instead of clicking on shit.

>>388528624
wew lad, you are the typical /v/ poster.
1) doens't know shit about the franchise
2) lurks threads for 10minutes, reads that 4v4 in PvP is bad (somehow) and just takes that information at face value
3) sees a webm without knowing anything about it and just say it's shit because /v/ said so

Just... sad.

>>388528761
Nothing stopping them from adding a 4th subclass later on, perhaps even with a new element.

>>388529353
There is a kind of sort of matchmaking system for Raids in place now with guided games.

>>388529543
The elements in Destiny are based on the fundamental forces, they can't exactly just make up a new one.

what do I need to know about races/clases someone hook me up

>>388529724
They could maybe add wind and earth, but I get what you're saying. It's their own fault though, they should've left the door open for more in future

Races are just cosmetic. Hunters generally are for people who want to play the game as a straight up shooter. Titans are for people who like to play aggressive and they have a lot of team support options. Warlocks are battle mages and they more geared around using their abilities.

>>388529724
Players could get Taken-like powers or Hive-type poewrs. Even their colors are different, one is dark/white and the other green.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a "fundamental force", Bungie can just make something up where in their desperation Guardians were able to infuse their light with those dark powers or something like that.

kinguin is selling beta keys for 2 bucks if you just want the beta

anon I promise you, there won't be enough content in either to solely play one or the other.

To support the industry? There's a reason why consoles are a requirement for this industry, because if it was up to PC players they wouldn't spend a dime on release, and isntead wait a couple of weeks for a 80% discount or a crack.

Sure, they could just do anything, but with how they formatted things Destiny's magic is based around the four fundamental forces. One thing they could do I guess is pretend Kinetic doesn't count, and add in some kind of toxic/radiation element to better represent the weak nuclear force.

>>388530548
They do it because they can. 6 years ago, there were no online subscriptions and games were $60 with $20 season passes.

they should have just kept to consoles since that shitty Sony exclusivity deal is still in

>>388530814
Most AAA games are $10 cheaper on PC.
Physical distribution is more expensive and publishers don't want to anguer retail stores so they match prices.
There are also other factors such as console players willing to spend more money on games (not counting microtransatcions, which PC players are addicted to and I'm sure spend more on them compared to console players), buying them on release more often, etc, which insentivises publishers to raise the price a bit.
Also the fact that Destiny2 is a guaranteed success. ActivisionBlizzard knows they can raise it and people will buy it regardless. On other games the price might lower because they are afraid of lower sales numbers (Titanfall2, for example)

>>388531098

That doesn't mean the classes are remotely comparable, the design philosophy is completely different.

>>388532136
Only in that Destiny is a looter shooter like Borderlands is: the core gameplay loop is all about getting phat loot.

>>388532136
not really similar at all other than "there is guns and there is loot"

While we wait for beta, anyone know what the fuck is going on with their pre-order items?

Everywhere they advertise you pre order, you get a "coldheart" rifle. Okay, that's Humble Store, Blizzard Store, GreenManGaming etc... However, on Blizzard Store alone they mention both a "Kill Tracker Ghost" skin and a "Salute Emote". Now why would that be, when they make Humble Store a prefered "buy this game" link from the official site, not to include that content as well? So maybe everyone will get all 3 items? I can't really see why the fuck they'd make it so the only way you could fucking salute would be to pre order, much less only pre-order from one place! Just something that chafes my cojones a bit

Oh and has anyone found a better price than Green Man Gaming for the pre-ordered Deluxe version? Humble Store has a 10% discount bringing it down to $90 if you're a Humble Monthly subscriber, but GMG (if signed in) offers it for like $80. Can't find anyplace cheaper than that at the moment. And yes, they get you a beta key instantly.

Not sure if I should go with Titan or Warlock. I liked Titan last time but since my bro will likely be playing one exclusively, I'm wondering if I should try something new.

So is there no pre-load for the open beta if you didn't pre-order? I mean it's not a huge deal but I would like to play right when it goes live. But I am not forking over my shekels without playing the game first

Once you have the couple guns you want then what is the point of pve? There's no carrot on a stick to keep you going without random loot.

>>388533305
that's not what he's talking about. some bungie guy said in an interview that they would be removing recoil on PC because it doesn't feel right

That beta key process was dumb as fuck

Why did I need to use two different sites to redeem it?

red pill me on this game

>>388533387
It's a bloody beta with all of 1 strike and 2 PvP maps. Just try them all

>>388533124
>no improved customization
>areas are still shitty little small zones you revisit over and over
>still the same shitty player count
Are all objectively incorrect. The weapon/armor mod system is going to make customization a huge step up, since you won't have to rely on random perk rolls anymore. The areas are fucking massive compared to anything that was in Destiny 1, just look at any of the strike gameplay from the beta. There are also 16 player patrol activities now, while before there would never be more than 9 people in patrol zones before and that was if you magically got three people with full fireteams matched into the same zone.

>>388533506
Eesh, now I'M worried. But hey if it works out all the more power to them for considering what would and wouldn't work on PC specifically.

weak PvE, weak PvP

We can't spoonfeed you babies all the time.

>>388533534
My thoughts exactly.
If I knew it would be such a hassle I wouldn't even have registered my beta code for just one day beta headstart.

>>388522009

>>388533441

To get the rest of the guns and use them all? The exotic collection in 1 was something I really liked, so being able to get one of everything and just dismantle any extras for more mats is gonna be fine. Then instead of deciding which Eyasluna to bring with me I can just take the one and have 9 primary slots for different types of primaries instead of 4 versions of the same meta gun.

>>388533543
mediocre if you have no friends, 10/10 co op shooter with the lads if you do

How long until it opens?

I'm stuck downloading it.

That guy was a producer who wasn't involved at all with the PC version, the PC team lead came out and corrected him shortly after. I mean we have PC gameplay, you can see that there is recoil.

>>388533832
3 minutes, about.

IS THIS WORTH 60

If you have a handful of friends you can shill it to as well, then yes it is a great time. There is nothing comparable to Destiny raids in any other shooter. If you are playing Solo, wait for reviews I guess.

I'd make the comment of "expansion being sold as a sequel" but to be fair PC gamers havent had the misfortune of playing the garbage that is destiny, so good luck to them.

I CAN'T PLAY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Technically it already is, thank god it's more powerful than the PS4 Pro is though, and it's nice not being a poorfag and owning a PS4 for the neato exclusives in addition to my PC

IT DOESN'T WORK YET

>>388534301
Thx, it's updating now. Fuck Blizzard

Alright I actually paid money for a beta for the first time in my life. My PC better be able to handle this game and it better be good.

Is the game fun to play solo wise? I did not play Destiny 1 so i have no idea what to expect. But my friend was shilling it to me on daily base, however he plays it on his ps4 while I only have PC so we cant play together
