Too complicated for the average Joe to master? So is every game. The average Joe is average, not the best else they'd be the master.
Take CoD for example, I'm no average Joe sure, Cod certainly isn't for them as I walk over them most games I play.
Hmm, pie.

Activision certainly implied it with that $500 million budget ;P
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
It'll be a huge hit and COD is declining, but I agree, COD loyalists (and there are quite a few left) won't go for Destiny long term. Activision and Destiny will win no matter what because many of those COD fans dying for something to play and bored with Ghosts will still buy both.
The MP is also very skill based, similar to Halo. No insta-kill.
It seems to me that destiny may end up taking over from CoD as the biggest selling FPS franchise. But I doubt it will reach the CoD peak of sales.
And it is going to be on PC, already announced I believe.

COD is simpler in that kills are quicker and maps are more simplistic -No PC release (that I know of) Agree -No nintendo fanbase (Call of Duty was/is on Nintendo platforms) Slightly irrelevant, since Wii U doesn't have the same casual appeal -Gives a more hardcore vibe where as Call of Duty gives more of a casual vibe Subjective but true.its not advertised like a pick up n play thing like COD -So many shooters on Market these days not really relevant since only halo MCC, COD and destiny matter in terms of AAA, Hardline is pushed to 2015 This franchise will do Halo Numbers on the New systems but not Call of Duty numbers. The industry just doesnt need any more shooters I dont think. Maybe I am wrong! The industry is leaning toward open world games and this is kinda open world so it might who knows? For all intents and purposes its the first next gen Halo |
Kudos on Well thought out thread

It will be the next COD if it releases a new game every 11 months or so.

Well it really comes down to Destiny not having the simplistic, fast paced shooting that makes COD very accessible.

u missed the one point
the online only areas and messages in the offline world
imho this will hurt the game.

Going to have to disagree completely with this. No insta-kill doesn't neccessarily mean a game is more skill based, Halo CE was the game with the largest skill gap of the halo games and it had the fastest kill time. A lot of what made halo skill based was map control and control of the power weapons which is limited in destiny, for example I can spawn with a sniper that has huge amounts of bullet magnetism and drop people in 1 or 2 shots and if people shoot me I don't get descoped and in comparison to halo you'd have to fight for the sniper which wouldn't have as much aim assist as it is in destiny and be descoped if you were shot making it a lot harder to use. I could also mention the fact that you can run about with a shotgun off spawn thats easy to use and that destiny doesn't feature an utility weapon like the BR, magnum or DMR which are hard to master.
I definitely wouldn't describe destiny as a skill-based multiplayer game when it comes to it's PvP.
