Because there's a thing called comparisons? Show off the improvements to Destiny 2 by comparing it to Destiny 1?

Compare the visuals to Battlefront (running at a much higher FPS) and Destiny 2 look like 30fps trash

People hate reading nowadays. It's all about YT :/

1) 4:10min mark, the shafts are visible with lightsource completely out of view and the shafts seem to have 3 dimensional volume.
2) 4:54 mark, when the player enters the neon lit area the green lighting is very "volume-y" typical of volumetric lighting.
Let me know if you think. Also I made this comment regarding a theory I have about the offloading AI and simulation bit last page.
Ohh jesus christ you were serious.
My expectations of game development knowledge from the average poster on Neogaf is too high I guess.
lol the framerate is higher, but I don't think the visuals look better than Destiny.
They totally do, but it's still a shit post.
Well it's totally subjective, so whatever you wanna think.
The visuals are certainly more realistic and the PBR is much better, but his whole point is shit.
Guys Battlefront uses photogrammetry, it's the main reason why it looks so good rather than brute forcing advanced rendering tech.
Photogrammetry most likely would not work with Destiny's art style.
Edit:
Destiny does not aim for realism even a bit though. Read my comment above regarding photogrammetry.

I don't think this video shows what you think it does... better framerate yes... better visuals? Nope.
I realize that. I was posting why the above shitposter might think it looked "better" although I personally would rather have Destiny's artstyle and graphics than I would Battlefront's.
That's one thing about Destiny that I don't think people realize who keep saying Destiny 2 looks like 1. Destiny has a stylized look to it. It's not as thick and cartoony as Overwatch and Borderlands, but it's not trying to be the most photo realistic game out there. Flashy super powers are the fanciest thing in it, and they do a lot of things with lighting and effects. You're not gonna see photo-realistic textures. Instead you'll see things like the pretty skyboxes and glowing worlds.
Eh, I don't think that's a great excuse. Horizon Zero Dawn doesn't go for realism either but it looks vastly superior in every way.
lmao, "my eyes deserve the best". That's rich. Let me go post that in all your threads raving about Persona 5. Or maybe you were confused when you played Zelda and Bloodborne?
So many hypocrites when it comes to Destiny. It's hilarious.
Not even fucking close
Nope, nothing like Destiny exists really. They also do a fantastic job of translation the WoW raid experience in a streamlined fashion suited for FPS.

Well what are you basing this on then? lol
You... you just quoted what I'm basing it off of. The people that I know that are saying this that don't play it.
I have friends that don't play Destiny that are just picking up on the talking points of why Destiny 2 sucks.
Welp...I'm sure the Bungie guys are gonna love that getting out there.
Apples and oranges. Horizon is a completely different genre. And it's single player.
I mean, that rambling, nonsensical Luke Smith response to the question about dedicated servers already put it out there - Bungie/Activision don't want to spend any unnecessary money on this game unless they're forced to.

DF said base PS4 but Bungie said all PS4 demos were running on Pro.

Maybe if this was a real sequel and not a rebranding of the old game
Ignoring that that is all the speculation of somebody who has no real knowledge about the game or its latency/bandwidth needs.....I don't think anyone reasonable expects Bungie to pay for cloud servers to get the game up to 60 FPS.
You should definitely give it a shot. The collection for D1 is pretty cheap now.
I was joking....
Thanks for looking through my post history though, you really showed me.

uhhh it's still an FPS with pistols, assault rifles, rocket launchers, swords where you fight aliens and ride vehicles that controls almost exactly like Halo. It's very close.

question. did they really make a new engine for this game or not?
because building a new engine plus game while still making dlc for their current game screams bull shit to me.

Every FPS plays the same then...lol
He asked for the co-op experience, Destiny co-op experience is very fundamentally different from Halo cause you aren't just shooting things but you have role responsibilities and game mechanics related to stuff like raid.
Borderlands 2 is on sale this week, maybe try that?

I count myself lucky I've never done something to warrant someone looking through my post history
Although honestly I doubt they would find too much.
Thanks for the condescending reply but I've already finished Borderlands 2. And no Destiny is similar only on a surface level. Borderlands 2 does not have anything like Destiny's raids.
The "raids" in Borderlands don't even deserve to be called raids.

I just had a look and Michael C. Salvatori is composing the soundtrack for Destiny 2, That seems ok, he co-opted a lot of Bungie's previous games with Martin O'Donnell. Also DF's analysis just confirmed to me that I am 100% getting this on PC I just hope it's ported properly.

That's what I thought too? Clarification from dark10x would be great

I look through everyone's post history before responding to them. Gotta prepare for every possible angle of attack.
Message boards are serious business after all.

I agree, it looks really impressive compared to the old destiny. I'm not on the destiny bandwagon but it looks way better.
Well, hard to tell for internet comments. I think it's funny because a lot of the time you'll see people bitching about something for a game when they excuse it for another, so yeah I looked. If you're offended or something, sorry but it's not like it's private.

This looks like the first game, how disappointing.
It was pointing out hypocrisy because I didn't realize he was joking. Not sure why that's so offensive to you.
To me, Destiny (gameplay wise) in a lot of ways feels like where Bungie would've taken Halo if they still had the reigns. Also, co-op is a ton of fun. They still have the Bungie touch. There were moments that I encountered that felt Halo-ish to me (like facing a Hunter in Halo for the first time) etc. If there is an open beta later on, I'd definitely recommend that you try it.

Man that bit when it switches from the 60fps interpolated footage back to the 30fps footage is fucking brutal.
I finally got the chance to check out the video. I feel like I'm missing something, this footage doesn't seem all that...flattering? The discussion seems like they're fishing for positive things to say.
The segment where they sort of touch on the lack of dedicated servers for offloading some of the general computing for multiplayer is interesting. Their simulated 60 fps interpolation really spells out what a missed opportunity that is, if they prioritized for framerate.
