Forums - Gaming Discussion - Destiny 2 reveal today!

Looks like much more potential and direction than the first game had.

Potential Spoilers*

What I noticed was the Destiny 2 gameplay reveal instantly reminded me of the Halo 5 gameplay reveal. Almost like they had thrown a skin on Halo 5.
The co-op feel, the constant coms communication about whats going on and where to go next, the Cabal sometimes disintegrating into tiny orange bits like the Forerunners do in Halo, the auto rifle fires and sounds just like the Halo assault rifle, some of the background music felt quite Halo like.
They also added battle tanks that look very Halo esk, there's a scene of a Death Star type device that looks like it obliterates life/worlds similar to a Halo Ring, and multiplayer has gone from 6v6 to 4v4 like Halo too.

Destiny has always had a bit of a Halo feel to it, and why not, its Bungie, but Destiny 2 looks like they're trying to go back to their roots. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Wait, four three new planets?

 

 

You funny Bungie. And you say the Earth region is the biggest thing you've ever done at around 2x the size of a Destiny 1 area......those areas weren't even remotely big. Nevermind that half of them were nothing more than pathways to the next spot where shit actually happened. And so since that's the biggest you've ever done, naturally the 3 new worlds are all smaller than that. Nice. Hype!

Wait, does the planets from the 1st game return in this one ?? Cuz if not, I can already sense some bullshit from Bungie there.

Well they weren't on the galaxy map they showed, and that thing looked decidedly small at that so.....I'd put money on no



It looks like more Destiny. I'm sure improvement have been made but I've no real idea of how a game feels and plays when the person doing the 'example/scripted' gameplay makes it so obviously scripted. Who walked through a level? I mean really? I ran, everywhere and then shot things and ran again. I don't slowly walk, I don't wait for co-ordinated play with team mates. We kill we move.

Wish these companies would show people actually playing the game sometimes.

Also, an entire conference for a reveal? E3 is like 3 weeks away. They could have just been part of that.



Hmm, pie.

And of course, no dedicated servers.....
God forbid

Activision/Bungie levels of trying.



Guess I'll focus on other games for the rest of the year, pick it up next year if it turns out to run well and holds for first half of 2018.

As a pc gamer this pleases me



Is this an FPS?



I hope the PC version comes late, cause they are planning to incorporate the story of Destiny 1 into it (or simply putting the first game into the package). I watched the vid and it was a terrible experience, since I had no idea what they were talking about - it was all meaningless blabber. That really didn't get me hyped for the game. Let me enjoy the whole story, or don't expect me to jump in.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Exactly steam or origin to me is no different.

True, but a good majority of PC gamers use Steam, while I didn't even know Battle.net even existed up to today. Better than nothing I guess.

Really? That despite some of the most popular PC games residing there? You need it to play Starcraft II, DIablo III, World of Warcraft, Heroes of the Storm, and Overwatch on PC.

Congrats, you have officially experienced the story of the first game.

Also, that is sooooo not what they're gonna do lol
