I really enjoyed the zones from the original game, I'd be a little disappointed if it was just Earth and 3 moons. I'd even take different zones on planets like Venus and Mars.

My only problem with the leaks is the 4 v 4. I do think 4 person pve and 4 v 4 Osiris would be great. But not for everything in the crucible.

Somebody has to explain to me what the difference between a moon and a planet is in the context of Destiny.

I thought Battle.net was a no brainer for PC version until they renamed it to Blizzard. Here's to hoping if it's not there that it is on Steam.
 
I guess that chances of PC footage coming out of this event are close to zero.

It will probably all be on PS4 Pro, like how we know from a PS Blog post from last night that hands-on for those attending the event will be on PS4 Pro.

Wrong, streamers have stated clearly they are allowed to play and record footage of both versions, PS4 and PC.

yeah, but nothing keeps Bungie from pulling a "hey, PC version isnt solid yet, PS4 Pro only for now". But we'll see, I hope its there, or at least gets some attention through either the reveal, or post-reveal by the people present.

Favorite weapon? Pre-nerf Thorn. What amazing fun that gun was.

I hope the PvP rumor isn't true. 6 on 6 is perfect imo.

I was actually hoping I wouldn't be too excited about D2 because I was so addicted to D1, but this thread is shredding that hope. I can't wait to see it, esp if it looks like Horizon!! :-o

IIRC, we had some of these same kinds of rumors ahead of the Destiny 1 reveal. They tend to be specific to the build being shown, regarding things like player counts. Everyone freaked out when fireteams were revealed to be groups of 3, thinking PvP was 3v3 and raids were with that small of a group. Bungie had to clarify after everyone lost it.

Which is to say, they might just be showing 4v4 modes today in this build, and that's all the leaks had enough context to talk about.
 
I'd honestly be happy with fewer planets to explore if the environments are big and varied enough. In D1 I feel like there were planets I just stopped visiting entirely after I got to a certain point.

I feel the complete opposite, Earth was so boring in D1, while places like The Reef, Mercury and Venus were far more interesting.

I feel like Earth was only boring because there was only one environment you could really explore, and it was kind of drab, with no recognizable landmarks or anything. It would've been so much more interesting if we had been able to explore the Mumbai Push, maybe China, maybe the U.S., or the Amazon

Man I hope they make raids a little "better", cuz I never felt compelled to do any of them except Oryx, and it was because of this awesome ship


nothing to do with the raid itself, which I was really going to pass until I saw the ship, then I had to do it once for it.

Fresh take: no matter what they reveal, this board will be full of disappointment and concern.

Fresher take: like Destiny, Destiny 2 will be an extremely fun game regardless of what subclasses or planets we have.

Yup.

Give me a solid level grinding curve, a system that respects my time (not too much RNG), and a solid raid and they have me at hello.

They probably want people talking about Destiny 2, not the differences in performance across the platforms, at the reveal. So they'll show just one platform. Bummer for those interested in the PC version, but it will surely be in display later on.

Yeah, I think this is the right call from a marketing perspective even though I'm buying the PC version.

Would be strange if it launched within the blizzard app. But they could be using a version of it but with a different skin and could be a push for Activision PC games going through a branded launcher that you could link your blizzard account to.

Not sure how it would fit in to the eco system of the blizzard app now but you would find a lot of wow / overwatch / diablo players probs giving it a go if it was just there.

Wierd to think everything Titan could of been and maybe after a look at what Destiny was internally they may have seen too much overlap or that Destiny was just a more compelling product. Either way we got Overwatch from that decision.

Even though I've probably played the original Destiny more than any other game this gen it wasn't exactly what I thought it was advertised as. But really hyped about 2 and hope they can improve on the stuff they got right and bring in the features / story / atmosphere that were missing.
 
If the 30fps leak is real, D2 will be the only console shooter in 2017 running at that framerate.

Battlefield, CoD, Battlefront, Titanfall 2, Gears of War 4, Uncharted 4, Halo 5, Overwatch, EVERYONE is 60fps...

And don't give me the "open world" excuse, Destiny has never been a true open world game.

I would've been ok with 1080p/30fps for campaign/pve and 900p/60fps for pvp. Other games on console are doing that, c'mon Bungo!!!

What about Prey, Dishonored, and Far Cry?

Edit: Oh, do you mean competitive MP only? I guess that's not impossible? I'd be surprised if PvE is 60 FPS.

really hope this is 60fps on console

there was no graphical reason for the first one to be 30fps (it was a by product of the multi generational release im sure)

Game logic runs at 60fps in Destiny anyway.

They are allowed to talk about the PC version but ... not show it?

Why? Pretty simple if you ask me.


PC = Windows.
Windows = Microsoft.
Microsoft = XBOX.

You sure as hell don't want people to talk about how good/bad the PC version was, right? Better stick to PS4Pro and show off what has been done on that platform. Sony exclusives right y'all!
