The beta showed all your claims.

- You can progresse enough in the Beta... the final game is the same just he level cap is not 8 but 20.
- It is the same history of the Beta... just got bigger.
- The same voice acting.
- It is the Beta + the three others planets already knewn lol

Nah, per usual when it comes to Destiny you're incorrect. You're just as wrong here as you were in the other thread when you didn't know what grinding or farming were.

Are you telling me you were able to get light points and equip legendaries and exotics and stuff in the beta? No, no, and no. Were you able to realize how they would limit your progression through the game via weapon upgrades and limit your ability to progress through vanguard with weekly mark limits? No. Would you have any idea from the beta that armor would require shards that they would limit your ability to get in order to artificially extend play time? No. Hell, I find it incredibly funny that you're arguing that you can see basically the entirety of how a loot games mechanics work in a short beta that features less than 1/3 of the entire level cap and 1/4 of the skill tree. You're making my case about how broken the loot and progression mechanics are without even knowing it. Thanks!

You barely touch the story in the beta. There were basically 3 full planets of story left to be told. No way for us to know they are all shit.

There was no way for us to know what content was in the final game based on the beta. Just because there are 4 planets doesn't mean there is the same amount of content on each. This is extremely basic logic and for you to argue it tells me you're either too fargone to be taken seriously in this discussion or just pulling my leg. I think you'll just argue against whatever we say about Destiny for the sake of arguing. For example, here you'll say there is no grind in Destiny and you like the way drops and loot works. On the other forum some of you frequent you talk about having to break down Queen gear over and over for the shards because it's the best way to get them. aka grinding, and a flawed loot system. So yeah, not going to bother responding to you on this anymore.

And some people seem confused and keep replying saying "Xbox fans" are downplaying Destiny sales as not an accomplishment. No one said that. A new IP to sell well is an accomplishment and great for the industry. For it to outsell a game that launched on a console with a userbase like 1/3 of its size at the time... you guys saying it's an incredible accomplishment either:

A. Had zero expectations for Destiny. Must have thought it would sell 42 copies.
B. Had higher expectations for Titanfall than Zampella ever did in his wildest, wettest dreams. It might have supposedly been Xbox fans "Xbone savior", but for some of you it was apparently set to cure cancer and feed the worlds hungry judging by these hyperbole laced responses :)
