Yes, which is why they won't do that.

I'd be thrilled with this, but I'm guessing Bungie fucks it up. The idea of playing a 30fps shooter now makes me cringe. At least dropping last-gen support will fix some of the horrible design issues.
They'd definitely have an advantage. Though pretty sure Sony don't allow MP Pro games to be 60 if the regular version is capped at 30, so I doubt it'll happen.

No, you'll be getting even more of it now.

HAH! You think they're gonna ease up on the MTX train? Sorry to disappoint. On the + side, the Live team is actually going to fulfill their side of the bargain this time around.

Yeah, but every major MP-Shooter released in the near past was 60fps an consoles:
Doom, CoD, BF, Halo, R6, GoW, Titanfall, Battlefront etc.
Destiny was actually an exception...
oh no, they will be back and from the start this time If I had to guess
Eververse was a hit, their packs were always among the DLC top sellers on the PSN

There will be mountains of micro transactions. All AAA multiplayer games have them in the current market and that's not changing.
Also interesting that the artwork here looks much more realistic. I wonder if we are going to see the art style of the game changed up a bit

Battleborn is 60fps on Pro.

This is just not feasible for Activition and their 500 million dollar investment.
If they affect the core game then I'm gonna pass on Destiny 2. Otherwise I'll just not buy them.

I hope i can buy supply drops with higher damage weapons in them.

Destiny also sold better than every other shooter listed besides COD so it doesn't exactly need 60fps.
Don't get me wrong I'd like it if they added it but consumers have clearly spoken at least in terms of Destiny, that no 60fps isn't a big deal
Destiny 1 by itself already more than recouped that 500 million investment.
But yeah MT aren't going anywhere in Destiny 2

They'll do the 900p 60fps thing on OG console. It can be 480p for all I care, as long as Pro is 1080p 60fps.
Then make the game F2P or subscription based, or sell it as cosmetic DLC. I refuse to pay for stuff I already bought.
I still doubt the veracity of a PC version.
One of my biggest wishes is cross-platform player saves. My PS4 character is drastically underleveled since I play XBO so much more, and I don't want to have to have three separate accounts to play.
Destiny 1 was technically capable of cross platform character data, first party wouldn't allow it.
But even with that, treasure box drops and special emblems/shaders were cross platform. The emblems I got for Bungie.net/Halo stuff I can use on Playstation, and I was able to use my Playstation 4 preorder shader on the 360. And whenever you got the login treasure box on one console, it'd drop on the other.
you must be new to this whole gaming thing

Most likely just a play on the Create/Live your Legend tagline. So it's you, the player, as if you're actually a Guardian.
What did you pay for in Destiny via micro transaction that you already bought?
I don't buy that. On PC you have a range of players, and not all of them could hit 60. Doesn't matter when you are just talking about the PC platform, so why would it matter if you add a console into it?
The controller scheme on the other hand, yeah.

nah, it'll be like D1 in that they are almost primarily cosmetics & optional enhancements.

because Bungie, breh. Destiny is probably one of my most played games of all time, but I can't presume Bungie is gonna get it right on the first go round =)

Too early to come up with OT titles?

Oh, nevermind then. Could have sworn they said Pro owners wouldn't get that type of advantage though, but must be thinking of something else.
Edit: nope I wasn't thinking of something else. Sure Battleborne wasn't already shooting for 60 on standard?

Do you guys think they'll go just as hard or harder in with the MMO-feeling nature of the game? I haven't kept track of the first game beyond the first six months or so.
I'd love if it actually was an open world RPG with great NPCs and side quests populating the world instead of whatever that crap was in the initial game.

Despite all the complaints, nothing has come close to the fun I had playing Destiny with the same team for months on end after the initial launch and TTK's.
So, the hype is there for sure

The original did just fine at 30fps, what makes you think this would be any different?
All I'm hoping for is 60fps on PC. If you gave on console and you expect game companies to give you 60fps multiplayer games when it can't be attained on the base level of your system, then you are misguided and probably playing on the wrong platform.
Gonna be microtransactions fucking everywhere. Destiny fans are whales and they just spent how many years with how many people developing this? Yeah, it's gonna be stuffed.

That is because the base PS4 is 60fps too. The Pro just helps hit that 60fps target.

Interesting point! I'm torn with how I feel on this one just because the look reminds me of the live action trailer they did for the first game. Seems silly to have an official poster with real people in that scenario, but who knows?!
I guess LoL is a money sink and Riot is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Microtransactions in paid games are bullshit designed to make the publisher even more than they already are.
F2P games have the excuse of being free.
I won't let Activision, Blizzard, SE, Ubisoft, or any other company nickel and dime me.

ooh nice, a live stream to talk about destiny 2 !! do you know when it may start?
Neat, hope they fix a lot of my complaints with the original like no PC release (already done), lack of world space to explore and discover history in (a crime not to let players discover a living world when you have such cool sci-fi art and force players into boring corridors), a better story from release (MOON WIZAAAARDS!), more interesting weapons (seriously, you have awesome sci-fi verse and all guns are the same old boring bullet spewers?) and more interesting classes with more and varying powers (not just "This is your grenade ability which explodes differently from other grenade abilities", give me a repertoire of skills to use and combine and truly set my class apart from the other).

That seems fairly misinformed when Call of Duty has consistently been hitting 60fps for their multiplayer modes.
I hope the announcement set for today is an actual trailer, with footage and a little information that actually tells us about the game. I know they want to save stuff for E3, but the game is just 5 months away, with the beta reportedly starting in just a couple months. We need info.
Unfortunately I have a feeling it's going to be some tweet or something with an image that reads "Destiny 2...September" and nothing else.

60fps please...the only thing majorly wrong with the game was the framerate

But with PC games it's always been understood and accepted, on console it's not. There would be a major shitshow if there was 60fps on the better versions of the console in PvP.

I'm suddenly hyped for this but need to maintain my focus on my current plate of games so I don't fall off the wagon.
I'll happily take either:
A: better graphics at same frame rate
B: same graphics at 60fps
