>how bad it felt
It's locked at 30 fps on console, but on PC it feels great with unlocked fps.
>>
So why the huge delay on PC?

It's obvious the game is done and the online infrastructure works fine. So is the delay just to snag a few double-dippers who might say "I can't wait for the PC version so I'll pick up the PS4 version in the meantime"?

Also, where the fuck do they get off calling a demo for a game that's a week away from launch a "beta"? If the game is currently in beta, something has gone terribly, terribly wrong at Bungie.

This is absolute bullshit. All that info is linked to the same Bungie account. It's all on their website. I don't see why they can't check to see if there's already a character on the account linked to both your PSN name and Blizzard name and use that info to put your character in the PC version.

If you were using the Sunshot or Sweet Business correctly, you'd disagree.
Unless you're talking about the boss, in which case you're retarded. Does that make the raid bosses in MMOs sword/magic sponges?

Yeah, they didn't exactly show off the best in that sense

I find the setting and lore of this game very interesting, and the graphics are absolutely gorgeous, but the gameplay leaves much to be desired (especially PvP). The cooldowns are much too long, and that reduces the gameplay to just boring shooting, when you could be flying andtossing space magic around. A shame. I'll probably buy it and play just to see the beautiful enviroments, but after the beta my first impression is: wasted potential

It's open beta you can try yourself. It's 2 maps for pvp, one ~20min 3 player dungeon(they call it strike) and 2 solo missions totalling another 20min story.

What this tells me is that people didn't actually play Destiny and just shitposted about it.

Yes, Destiny is a good game. Did it lack single-player content on release? Sure. But the raids, strikes, and PvP all made up for it. The raids in Destiny are some of the most fun I've ever had in a video game and I'm excited to see what they do for the sequel considering they said there is like 4 times more content than Destiny.

Not him, but you're full of shit. Gaul (and the Cabal in general) is a massive step down as far as a main villain goes.

>he steals your light
>but you're gonna get it back anyways
>he blows up the city
>which you never had any connection to

The prologue is bad because they try to make losing the city an emotional moment - but you had no reason to care about it, you never saw any of it beyond the tower. You've lost something you never had. That's weak storytelling.

I'm looking forward to the game but if you think it has a strong start or an engaging story premise, you're deluding yourself.

>>388832647
You're not making an argument - you cannot deny that the player had no emotional connection to the city. You hung out in the Tower. You never walked on its streets or talked to the average citizen.

I'm not saying the city's destruction does not incite a reaction - you can certainly feel tense or apprehensive at how easily it was destroyed, but at no point is any player going to feel as if they have lost something due to its loss/destruction. Everything you valued was in the Tower.

Step down from Destiny 1? Where the villain was a big dumb robot that popped in out of nowhere 2/3rds of the way through the story doing a bad thing that must be stopped because reasons that I don't have time to explain why I don't have time to explain? Gaul is a pretty generic villain, but there's still an actual reason to go after him even if you don't care about the tower or the main characters. The incoherent trash passed off as a story in Destiny 1 was bar napkin scribbles compared to even this single mission.

Oryx was a good villain, and who I had in mind. No reason that they shouldn't have aimed for that same level of storytelling.

He was good if you read the Book of Sorrows, but otherwise he was more of the same generic crap.

Big bad asshole cruises around the galaxy stealing shit and munching on light. That's really all the game tells you about Oryx or any villain.

You essentially HAVE to read the Grimoire if you want to have any inkling of a compelling story in Destiny 1. Without it, the Fallen are dirty trashpickers and nothing more, the hive are spooky moon bugs and nothing more, the vex are weirdo time robots and nothing more, and the cabal are turtlemen that "blow planets up when they get in the way" but spend all of Destiny 1 just poking around on mars for a computer.
>>
>>388834353

That's completely irrelevant. Oryx was the main villain of the expansion that introduced.

Is there some sort of logic that states a developer cannot match the storytelling quality of DLC at launch?

No, it's just that PCgaming died well over 15 years ago so any little console port they can get gives them a massive boner.
Just think the kind of shooters they've been playing for the past couple years: CS:GO or EarlyAccess meme FOTM trash like PUBG

It's got shooting and getting new toys with higher numbers.

In Destiny 1, the main game was always lacking, but the raids made up for it by being mechanically complex, challenging, varied adventures that you could only beat with a competent team that knows how to work together and divide tasks.

If you can put up with a middling path through the story, In my opinion the raids have always been worth the price of admission.

Playing pvp gives you gear. Can't speak for D2 because no one knows yet but for D1 some of the best weapons in the game (matador, various IB pulse rifles, that really fast firing auto from trials) for using in pvp only came from pvp.

Retarded comment. Pvp rewards gear at the same level as pve activities. Iron banner is/was so easy to play that anyone could get to max level.

I mean i can understand alot of faults with Destiny but "bullet sponges" isn't one of them.

If this game is trying to pin itself as an "MMO" then of course bosses in "dungions" and "Raids" should be bullet sponges. You don't call bosses in FFXIV or WoW "melee and magic sponges" do you?

It's all about keeping up DPS on the boss while avoiding mechanics, just like a real MMO. It's just that now there isn't really a trinity.

Gear actually doesn't matter in PvP like it does in PvE.

In regular PvP, your level and gear numbers are normalized to match everyone else, and the weapons all generally hit the same as every other one in their class. Your perks still change stuff, but only as far as your playstyle goes, not your ability to cause damage.

But there was a special event that would show up every few weeks in D1 called Iron Banner, where your level and gear numbers mattered and you did more damage than people that had worse stuff.

Since you never got a true or straight answer. No, you will not have to raid or strike to play endgame pvp. If all you want to do is play endgame pvp you will get gear from doing just that. During special pvp events you also get access to better pvp gear that drops or is available during normal pvp. The stuff you will get from raids or strikes is neat and all, and in some cases (Thorn) will give you a bit of an edge if you do both pvp and raid, but overall you don't ever have to touch a raid if pvp is all you are after. As far as maps and modes and shit.... This is all based on memory so it might be off... 4 pvp special events. 30ish total maps. 14ish different game types (Some copies of others with misc modifiers). I had one character that was PVE gear sets, and one character taht was PVP gear sets. Both were pretty much equal playing field.
>>
>>388828834
Didn't read the thread, but the beta was pretty underwhelming. It's a moderately good looking game, but the gameplay for the first mission, and the strike mission were boring as hell. I played through both missions as Warlock and Hunter and the game was pretty boring.

According to Luke Smith, the story intro is different for returning characters. I can't speak for anybody else, but it bugs me a little bit that I won't be the same character as I was in the first game.

I'm not really that upset, it's just a little thing that bugs me. I'll just watch the different opening on youtube and then forget about it completely.

If you know about the fact that every class has 2 "types" then you've seen it all I think.
Apparently there are things called subclasses in Destiny 1 which will be implemented in 2, but I have no idea what those are.

So now I know how people who played Destiny 1 feel. I could see myself playing that level MAYBE 2-3 times before getting bored of it, and you expect me to play it 20 times in a row to MAYBE get a slightly better weapon? Who's got time for that?

I'm surprised that we haven't seen a non-PVP game that lets you freely choose between first and third person cameras yet. It's not a deal breaker for me but it's such a simple thing to add (Destiny already has it in the code), there's no harm, and it gives players the best of both worlds.

>>388838162
Infusion works like this: you have a weapon you like at 220 attack, and you find a gun you don't want to use, but has higher attack, at 240. You can infuse the 240 into the 220 and now the 220 is at 240 attack.
>>
>>388837991
>Use a third party program just to group with someone

Why can't they just have an ingame tool for grouping with people?
>>
>>388838373
So if I get a low level exotic I like I can hold it for the rest of the game by feeding it guns?
I saw in destiny 1 like end game gear was 350??? or so numbers but the exotics you got were around 290 to 260 so you just feed them guns to make them 350?
Basically what I'm saying is if I fall in love with a year 1 gun, can you use it for ever or will I eventually have to drop it for the NEW COOL LOOT from expacs. I always got annoyed with that in other MMO's were I had to drop my cool looking loot for some blue from the expac.
>>
>>388838373
BTW the Attack number of weapons is not your damage, it's just the "level" of the item that gets compared to the level of the enemies to decide whether you do full damage or suffer a penalty.
>>
>>388838348
>no one is forcing you to use steam

That's what people used to say.
>>
>>388837983
Not having full matchmaking is fine, but not having an in-game party finder is garbage. In Destiny 1 there was literally no way to "use your social skills" to find a group to do a endgame strike or raid with in-game, you were forced to resort to third party sites if you wanted to get a group together for that. That's just bad design
>>
>>388838308
Maybe you should work on that.
>>
>>388838162
Oryx announced his arrival and gave everyone time to prepare, and technically TTK is an assault, not defense against an army.

Gaul did to the guardians what the guardians did to Oryx. A series of small, surgical strikes to cripple the monitoring capabilities of the base you're about to attack, and then send in a highly specialized team to take out the strongest people in the base.
>>
>>388838706
>In Destiny 1 there was literally no way to "use your social skills"
My first raid was with a group that saw me in the tower and asked if I wanted to come along.

Speak for yourself.
>>
>>388838782
So basically Gual was smart while TTK was too brazen.
>>
>>388838893
You mean the tower, where the number of people you can talk to is very limited based on where you were instanced and it's pure luck of the draw if anyone who wants to do that content and is geared for it happens to be there in that instance at the same time as you?

Yeah what a great system, definitely don't need an ingame party finder
>>
>>388838643
I don't think so, seeing as guns have perks n shit, and if they don't carry on (only the attack value does) then it's pointless. I haven't played 1 tho, so I might be wrong
>>
>>388839043
You said there was "literally no way" and that's demonstrably untrue. If you ask people if they want to run the raid in the social space, and they say yes, then there is a way.
>>
>>388839079
You are wrong.
>>388838643
Yes, it's totally possible to hang onto guns from previous expansions as long as you keep infusing them.

Guns in vanilla didn't have the infuse mechanic, since it hadn't been introduced yet, so you couldn't hold onto them, but it's a mechanic from the start in D2, so there's no reason to assume you can't keep your favorite legendaries and exotics throughout the whole game and the expansions.

But every expansion tends to come out with some pretty rad guns, so it's smart to try the other stuff too.
>>
>>388839187
Fine, there's no *reasonably well constructed* way. If there was even a tower chat or LFG channel that wasn't limited by your particular instance that would be one thing, but the way it was set up meant that the chance of you actually finding someone in the same instance that was looking to run that particular piece of content was not great.
>>

>Majority of console players agree that D2 beta was meh tier and game is just reskin of D1
>PCfriends who dont know better find it amazing

I agree visually PC version looks good and plays well but preodering based on that is stupid. Even more If you played D1 before. You should know better. New PCfriends dont preorder cause you have entire month to see what this game has to offer. And trust me community will find every piece of content there is.

Does the game get fun at any point?

Beta was boring as fuck, it was like Borderlands combined with 2004 fps AI
>>
>>388838782
It's bullshit no matter how you slice it, but the script demanded it so just deal.
>>
>>388839591
Well no shit, the beta doesn't really have anything PvE wise outside of the intro mission and a single strike, not exactly enough content to impress people who spent god knows how many hours in Destiny 1. But for PC players that have never touched it before they're experiencing the shooting mechanics, classes, loot system, etc. for the first time so of course they're going to be more interested than someone who is scouring for new things.

But I agree with your view on preordering. Especially with that 7 week window between console release and PC, plenty of time to learn if the game is going to have any legs or if it'll be a repeat of Destiny 1's totally barren endgame
>>
>>388839591
I played D1 religiously on PS4, had a sudden falling out with it before Rise of Iron, and never played again. I played the demo for the PC version, and have been keeping up with what's new and different in the sequel and I'm excited for that.

I'm mostly interested in raiding again, and Luke Smith is in charge of the vanilla raid. He did my favorite ones in D1, so I have no reason not be excited for this one.

I don't get it, the movement feels slow and sluggish, gunplay is just your standard generic fps but with basic actions tied to extremely long cooldowns and the enemies are as basic and boring to fight as they can get. Don't even get me started on how lazy and uninteresting that boss was.
Even with finding cool loot this couldn't be all that much more fun, I got an exotic pistol that had explosive shots but it felt exactly the same as the other pistols but with an extremely tiny aoe on hit, so why do people play this?

It wasn't just the 30 FPS cap.

Some time after now, we do a manned mission to explore mars.

While there, the astronauts discover a giant white sphere called the Traveler, that is converting mars to a livable planet.

The Traveler uplifts mankind with magic, making them hyperintelligent and basically immortal. Mankind enters a golden age of science and art, colonizing basically the entire galaxy in a matter of centuries.

An unknown force called "The Darkness" turns out to be chasing the Traveler. It attacks earth, and (THIS PART IS SPECULATION BASED ON GRIMOIRE CARDS) the traveler intends to flee, leaving earth to deal with the Darkness, an unstoppable evil that would destroy humans in pursuit of the traveler. An AI controlled defense system on earth turns its weapons on the Traveler, crippling it so it cannot flee, and must stay and protect mankind. It uses the last of its energy to release Ghosts, the little flying robots that hang out with guardians. They find specific people and imbue them with powers, turning them into Guardians, superpowered immortals that can fight back against the alien threats facing them. After this, the Traveler basically dies. It becomes immobile, can't communicate anymore, and just floats there motionless.

A series of terrible setbacks happen all throughout the galaxy, and mankind is pushed back to one city on earth. Almost all information about this time, called the Collapse, is not recorded or has been destroyed, so no one knows what happened for sure. Most guardians don't have ships, and are stuck on earth patrolling the city and doing humanitarian work to help the last remaining humans.

That's where the game starts. A bunch of shit happens, you shoot guys, and then everything is okay for a little while.

The Traveler still hasn't woken up, and now I guess the Cabal are stealing it in D2.

It's a map pack for Destiny 1. If I pay $60 I want it to a new game. This beta just proved that they didn't learn a god damn thing from D1 and they're just going to keep inking by, doing as little work as humanly possible.

There is soooo fucking much to improve upon the first game and they decided to focus on 3 or 4 trivial things that don't make a difference for anyone, except maybe for the worse.

I'm running this game on a shitheap toaster (I refuse to tell you the specs out of embarrassment) and I'm averaging ~55 fps. Lowest I get is around 45 when fuck tons of shit is going on at once. I'm actually amazed at how well it runs.

People kept saying Destiny was like the console version of Warframe, years ago.

So I picked the guy with the double jump and movement speed on armor.

And holy hell it's so bad. Barely any in-air control, can't mantle onto ledges, can't reload while sprinting, incredibly long ability cooldowns. It's erased any interest I had in the full game.

All that being said, I have multiple friends who will probably get the game, so I might get it anyway just to play with them. I don't hate it, but if I didn't have friends getting it, I'd be done with it already.

>>388845209
it doesn't take 10 minutes and they spawn because that area is also a patrol zone in the full game. so they have to spawn more enemies and shit to do even if you never touch it in the strike. there's also a lost sector entrance around there and a boss you can kill that drops a loot chest.

Agreed, anybody defending this shit is retarded. This is the entire reason I didn't bother with raids
>>
>>388845209
>I don't really get why they added those
Because the strike entrance is in the patrol map, so patrol stuff is going on around the entrance. Also you can drive them around to the other open parts of the map. You don't have to follow the path to the strike.
>>
>>388844884
oh?
if you want X, you MUST play PvP
there are 2 matchmaking choices now: "Quickplay" and "Competitive"
"Quickplay" will be filled to the brim with K/D farming stacks because the score to finish is increased, Mercy Rulings activate later and the matchmaking allows stacks to match solos
so it's even more difficult to get what you want unless you're a PvPfags that likes competitive 24/7 or a masochist that like getting farmed

I DO give a shit about what happens to PvP because bungie are still using the same old engine that ties shit together across modes so whatever changes in PvP also changes in PvE, if you read my shit

What... What did you expect? We all know these shooter betas are more of a small demo/marketing move and only used as a "beta" to fix bugs and test stability.
I mean, SURELY you are aware that's not the full content of the game, that it'll have many more story missions, many more strikes and many more PvP maps, as well as the 4 "open-worlds", so why are you complaining about the small beta when you KNOW the game will have a lot more to offer? It seems to me that you're bitching about the final game because of the small beta, which is stupid.

also
>can't customize controls
Blatant lie, you can change each and every button right now.
>can't customize characters
half-lie, you can customize your grenade, super, jump and ability. In the full game you can costumize your sub-class tree and unlock a 3rd sub-class for each of the classes. As well as making your own character instead of getting a random race/sex. Once again it seems like you're judging the final game based on a beta that you KNOW is limited.

Well the website says the beta is still on and that I should certainly download now and join, the launcher says the same, and the game just reports a generic error, even though it's still the 31 on more than half the fucking planet.

Scouts in the beta were bad because their slowest ROF class wasn't represented (pic related). Also average ROF full-auto ScoutRifles aren't that good for PvP. So the two in the beta were mediocre at best, we still don't know if that weapon class as a whole is bad though
That being said the Beta had good Pulse rifles, maybe you didn't try them enough to judge them fairly.

The explosive handcannon was good, yes, but not a mile above all other weapons. It's just reddit and streaming making a meme out of it, so people copy them and believe them.

The only weapon that was actually OP was the normal Fusion Rifle, and the only weapon classes that were underpowered were Sidearms and GrenadeLaunchers. (some spergs think SMG's are bad because they used them way out-of-range, died once, got butthurt and never used them again)

>PvE
for the 50th fucking time
because of all of the changes to PvP, PvE is fucking gutted
encounters will be dumbed down and slowed down because we have 2 fucking primaries now
our abilities and super recharge are fucking slower now
we move fucking slower now

there is no fucking "hardcore" PvE, and with the longer time to kill and less available power on you, there is no fucking "hardcore" PvP either
skill ceiling is shot to hell because you CANNOT take on more than a single person now
a fucking abomination of their first fucking abomination

I just played it. With that pve mission against that Mind Module thingie. I wouldnt say its bad, but it's very bland. It doesn't stand out much from a COD or battlefield. Cant imagine playing this shit like other regular mmo's.

You mean you wish it HAD a story period. It had none. There was more story content on the companion app and their website. The campaign was 110% "Walk to X and Deploy Ghost" with no real reason as to why and sprinkled with a little ethnic cleansing/genocide of aliens for reasons that aren't clear.

Destony isn't terrible about it, they're just relying too much on Fillion to carry the game since the other Vanguards lack personality. I'm cautiously hopefully the full game will fix that since it's supposed to give each vanguard their own time in the spotlight.

Because they're relying on Fillion too much, yeah. It works in the one trailer with the two simultaneous speeches because it contrasts the serious tone of Zavala with the comedic relief character. Unfortunately, Cause is gradually taking over since idiots respond well to him. He's the game's Urkel, where he started off as a bit character to lighten the mood but is slowly hogging more and more of the spotlight.

You want to know about him? Ghaul was tormented from birth, being told that he was unworthy of anything, let alone the lights blessing. The light didn't choose the Cabal, so they chased after it to get more power. Ghaul in particular was raised to be obsessed with the Light, to feel within himself that he wasn't the mistake and instead it was the Traveller that chose wrong. After some heat in the empire, his fucked up mentality deemed the emperor himself to be unworthy and initiated a coup.

Blizzards DRM is literally the least intrusive and most polished. Far better than Steam, but it does also just have 8 games with Destiny 2 included so that's no surprise.

Though i have to ask, what kind of fucking mongoloid plays primarily on PC if given the choice and does not have Battlenet? Blizzard is basically the main draw of PC gaming at this point unless you're some fucking third worlder who have played CSGO or DOTA 2 for thousands of hours or enjoy eating shit in the shape of todays PC ports, if we even get them at all.

Game seems fun but can someone convince me that the destiny community isn't the biggest piece of shit awful cancer gaming community to ever exist. All the vet players act like a big hivemind with the same opinions and think everything added to the game is great unless the addition changed something from the original destiny because "back in d1 it was like this, we had to do it this way" even if the change is good they just want to remind you that they are d1 players and stroke each others dicks. Also if you dare critique the game they will mob you to death, and are even more autistic about "toxicity" than any moba to the point where they removed global chat, team chat, even pvp scoreboards to reduce "toxicity" even though those changes are very harmful especially for an mmo.

If this is how they will act for the entirety of d2 I think I will not enjoy this game.

He lost according to his own rules. He was challenged in his ascendant realm and defeated. It was exactly the kind of death he would accept - to die at the hands of a stronger force. Although apparently it's possible he's not dead.

Probably gonna be some storyline where we learn "the Light was inside you all along" bullshit and regain our powers without the Traveler or find some other alternate source of Light.

In Destiny 1, the Season Pass didn't cover The Taken King.

Ah, fair enough, wouldn't know since i'm 110% PCbro

>>388853601
yeah plus 2 more 60 buck payments

I figured you'll regain your powers from the fragment of the Traveler that you see in the EDZ.

You know, it's possible people are spamming these threads regularly to try to sour /v/'s opinion of the game. It may not actually be paid shills.

Looking forward to playing come the 6th. Tried the PC beta, but all it did was convince me that I've got no interest playing at 24FPS w/ Vsync. Somehow my PC setup is actually worse than my PS4.

Wasn't that one corrupted or some shit?

Somehow i'm not surprised

If you want to see just how fuckawful the community is go to the main Destiny subreddit and check out all the shitters defending the auto-aim in multiplayer for PC.

Bungie's ideal model is a "tick tick tock" model where the "ticks" are small expansions like House of Wolves and The Dark Below and the tocks are big content drops like Rise of Iron and Taken King. There's a price difference between the two, with the smaller content packs being $20 and the larger one being $40.

The only time $60 was ever asked was when Activision went turbo jew and made it so you had to re-buy Destiny 1 along with Taken King under certain circumstances, which they're not doing again.

So $40 a year to stay current. That's really not that bad if you play the game for hundreds of hours like people did with D1.

I dunno, I thought it was from when the Traveler was wounded during the Collapse.

I just figured that's what the storyline was going to go for - get whatever Light is inside those remains to hold you over until you can break the Cabal's toy.

It isn't "autoaim" though, it's just console aim assist to make up for mouse having more control. The reticle sticks, but you have to actually move the analog stick to the target. Basically lowers the sens when you are close. Actually fucks you sometimes in situations where there's more than one person involved.

So is it confirmed there's going to be third subclass for launch, or just rumors so far?
>>
>>388854338
Confirmed, of course they're gonna cover all 3 elements

Destiny has a fanboy problem. Which is a fucking issue because the game is far from perfect. A little depth here and there isn't going to hurt anyone but bring that up somewhere it could actually be seen and you get a pack of shitlords on you jawing off one of the two or so non-arguments they use for everything.

lol what are you on about karl

It's the same bullet-curve/reticle-magnet system that all Bungie console shooters have had. Not really a big deal on its own.

The only real problem is that you can fool the game into thinking you're using a controller, when you're actually using a mouse.

Though, I suspect they've got some anti-cheating tools to detect that. Quite likely gathering data for it while the Beta is live.

Good to know, are they just pretty much copy & paste from TTK?

I miss Nightstalker.

There's some fanboys, no doubts, but the Destiny community has thrived for years despite people telling them the game is shit and that they're deranged for liking it. People within the community actually bitch a TON about the game(which is partly where the deflection comes from, people get sick of the constant bitching), but they're defensive about criticism from people who weren't along for the ride the entire time or don't know what they're talking about.

Would be neat.

Fooling it into thinking you have a controller has drawbacks. The aim assist is actually detrimental to skilled mouse aiming, because it will drag you off your target. You lose 1-to-1 movement, and you have slower turn speed, because you're emulating an analog stick. And you have higher recoil, because recoil is turned down for the mouse.

According to actual pros, native mouse plus keyboard is still the best setup.

The hilarious thing about this whole "aimbot WTF!!!" shit is that the guy who is making the biggest deal out of it actually used the exact same setup for years to become one of the best Trials players on Twitch.

The excuse for that whole thing for a long time was that it has those disadvantages with that setup. Now people (including Lupo, from what I gather) are making it out like that's not the case.

All for getting rid of it with cheat detection software, but the game feels really good to play with a controller and pairing that with 144 FPS is a super nice option. It would suck to see that done away with because of misunderstanding and people using exploits.
