Hit level 8, played a bit more MP. Generally feel the same as I did before. While I this cool that there are more abilities to upgrade, overall I still find the beta boring. The gunplay and AI are the two biggest letdowns, especially since its Bungie.
I also find myself wondering if the game world improves at all in the retail game. One of the best things about Borderlands is the AI characters are actually doing things hat would seem natural and you just stumble in them. In Destiny they are just standing there waiting on you to shoot them. And when you kill them, they respawn insanely fast. There is a loot route I found on Reddit in Rocketarena or something in the explore mission. There are lots of little rooms you can stumble into just by hugging the walls. There are 3-4 instances where you can kill a mob, run into the room to check for a chest, return outside less than 10 seconds later, and the mob respawns. LOL
I have a hard time understanding why thus game requires online play and has no offline SP:
1. No item trading
2. No communication between players outside of voice chat
3. No matchmaking for regular missions
4. Its more of a pain than anything else when other players invade your game world. They can slow down your mission progress big time
Seems like the game could be a lot better as a standard FPS with optional online co-op.
Also, can someone explain the difference between Crucible and Iron Banner? I gt decimated by any variety of 1-2 shot kill weapons in Crucible and die a ton but I slaughter people in IB I think I played 3 games and averaged like 15 kills each time.
