Variable fps confirmed.
I'm sure they'll have it, but honestly the only thing that article should say is "Destiny will have meaningful PC features" which could be anything...
Ultra Wide?
120fps+?
FoV Sliders?
Image Quality Settings?
We have no idea.

Bungie must be supremely confident in the game if they are willing to be so open about the demo. That has me more excited than anything.

Ultra wide and FoV sliders would be awesome. I've played a bit of it on a friend's PS4 and the game felt almost... claustrophobic.
Can't you do it on Gamestop or something? Also they'll probably start pre-orders for PC on the 18th, after announcing their Activision Launcher.

Fastest way would be to run all of the 390 raids on each character every week.
If you play solo, I would run Heroic Strikes. If, for example, your gauntlets are holding you back, open a Skeleton Key chest that has a chance of giving you gauntlets. You'll also get a guaranteed artifact. Also make sure to pop a 3 of Coins each strike, because Exotics can decrypt up to 400 Light, making them good Infusion fuel.
Also, play a crap load of Iron Banner next time it comes around. Not only is the post-game drop rate pretty decent, but you can also get weapons and gear by completing the relatively easy IB bounties. Use 3 of Coins every couple of matches to really maximize your returns.
Is this a guess or a real thing? I'm not getting another goddamned client.

Whomever that guy was looking to level up quick
Iron Banner Mayhem Clash is next week!
So basically, supers every two minutes or so.

Yay mayhem clash is one of the best modes in the game. I'll play it just because I like the mode so much.
What percentage would you consider to be good? Because I can tell you, if 20% of the people who have ever launched Destiny went on to play a raid, that's an extremely high and impressive number.

You're basing this on nothing though.Truth is(actual truth) the majority of players don't finish games. Regardless of difficultly. Frankly, considering the amount of time, dedication, and coordination raids take, its startling how many people actually beat one. 22.4% is only half of Uncharted 4 and The Order 1886s (43%/48%) any difficulty completed trophy, and those games would take a fraction of the time. Something like the Witcher 3 30%, or Dues Ex 31%, in comparison to other longer games.

I think Mayhem Clash is good fun every now and then. I just don't know if it should be the Iron Banner game. But we'll see, maybe I'll eat those words next week.
Until the 16th. Iron Banner always goes the full week.

The reason I couldn't get into Destiny despite participating in the beta was the guns.
I mean, they were in space and all they use were human AR and pistols. I expected more from Halo developers. Not sure how it actually is after expansions and updates but I lost interest. Also story seemed to be a drag.
Mildly excited for this announcement anyway.

Oh, that was a typo. I knew it was for the full week but didn't realize that I wrote the wrong date. I'll fix it, thanks for pointing it out.

I checked the stats on the Xbox side. It's actually 46% out of the true achievements
community but 20.19% on Xbox as a whole.
Given its had free demo's and sold to tens of millions I reckon that's a very good percentage actually.
Sure I wish it was 80 or even 100 but realistically (as noted elsewhere) all games have pretty low completion percentages.
I guess the debate is what should the percentage be? What should Bungie aim for? I personally think 20% to 25% is fine. I think to get that significantly higher you'd have to change the raid so much that they wouldn't be raids any more.
The issue with vanilla, and most of Destiny, was that the story wasn't very good, so the 50 percent that only completed one mission or a few missions, never had a great time.
This. I'm actually hyped for this.
I need a new 'go-to' game for my PC.
I see what you're saying but the ability to go past 60 fps, mouse-aim, increased FOV, and improved image quality settings are positives of a PC version (having an increased FOV is a huge advantage on Gears 4 for example).

if your a solo player faction packages yield top level gear now rank up patrols bounties strikes crucible whatever and then also what other have said there are so many ways now that were not there before.

For real. Can´t wait.
Uhhh, are you sure you played the game? I mean I haven't played since Year 1, but back then there were plenty weird/non-human weapons in the game, and i'm surprised you thought the story dragged as there was next to no story back then too.

Non stop sticky nades too. Those primary kill bounties are going to be tough.

Halo was also ALWAYS 30 fps peer 2 peer and look at H5, not to mention most other shooters are going 60. You seem pretty sure.
UK peeps; you can watch the streams in the cinemas. Kind of an interesting idea.

this is quasi true alot of people don't beat games but last I checked the %was higher of completion on uncharted 4 then 20% something. I would clarify I would love harder raids or some difficult things but destiny 2 seems to be aiming to be a more inclusive game than 1 was at the start. The current state of destiny with what u can do do gain light is great. It's not perfect but Im sure (at least I hope) destiny 2 will start closer to how destiny 1 is now. Not be harder and more barriors like destiny year 1.

GAF has learned from the past with overhyping.
There's nothing to talk about. Once they show it off, then we'll talk!3 more days. Can't believe people aren't talking about Destiny 2 when all the info is coming out in 3 days

There just isn't anything to talk about. We had the teaser / first trailer thread and hundreds of thousand of posts in the biggest gaming community GAF has ever had.
Until something leaks / the stream happens there isn't much to discuss that we haven't already done to death
3 more days. Can't believe people aren't talking about Destiny 2 when all the info is coming out in 3 days
You just wanted to bump the thread ffs.
I thought there was new news...

That truly is a good thing. Everyone can finally be impressed for once instead of being extremely disappointed when we don't have Phantasy Star Online 3 the super MMO.

I'm honestly so surprised nothing major has leaked yet! Seems like they're going to be able to reveal it exactly how they want to. I'm getting hyped.3 more days. Can't believe people aren't talking about Destiny 2 when all the info is coming out in 3 days
Ditto. Bungie must have serious ninjas everywhere to prevent leaks.
Bungie seems really excited and confident in this reveal. There's an energy around them talking about it that I haven't seen since the Taken King.
It's kind of shocking actually, considering how much has leaked from Destiny. I mean, The Taken King leaked really early thanks to the Red Bull promotion. Eververse leaked. Rise of Iron details leaked.
But the closest thing we've gotten to a Destiny 2 leak is this, which is interesting:
