Unlike a lot of people, I actually thought Taken King was kind of overwhelming with all the changes and Destiny wasn't as useful for me as a passive, solo, podcast backlog experience. I'd played Destiny practically on a schedule since its release, but two weeks after its most popular, substantive release yet I was deleting it from my hard drive.

It was also off-putting how the game kept leaving people like me out of the best stuff; I could only play easy mode Prison of Elders, soloing Nightfalls was almost always a nightmare, Crucible was something I only ever played begrudgingly, etc. I hear they're taking steps to make the passive community feel more included in the endgame loot, at least until the hard mode raid drops, but I don't know.


It's strange but I'm more nostalgic for the days when I could just do daily bounties and missions for all three character classes every day, have both subclasses on all three at max level and know I wasn't really accomplishing anything but I was leading my fireteam in kills every strike and maximizing my speed on certain missions to just a couple of minutes than I am excited for all the new things there'd be waiting there for me between the continued development of Taken King and Rise of Iron dropping today.


Might actually wait for a discount on this one around Christmas. I do feel an itch for Destiny, but NBA 2K just dropped, it's been a year and a half and I still got half of The Witcher 3 to complete (and then the 50 hours of DLC...) and I've got several other little things in the backlog so it just doesn't seem practical.

Need to get my light level up before cashing these in. I did get a new one from a public event and that gave me praxic fire robes at 343.

Like what I see so far, they took the Taken King model and added more shit to that.

It's still one of the games that I pick up the most when I have time to play. Most of the people I played with dropped off so I don't get to do the raids or any of those. Nightfalls and POE I get done with one other person... I've been contemplating this one but will most likely get it.

http://kotaku.com/sources-destiny-2-coming-to-pc-aims-to-feel-like-a-to-1787153460

tl;dr: Bungie wants the proper sequel to feel like a whole new game. Your characters from the first game won't carry over.

My thoughts: I'm very okay with my character not coming over to the sequel which is kinda my main problem with the game. I feel way less of a connection to my character in Destiny than to Master Chief in Halo.

Destiny 2 better be STELLAR if they do decide to go that route.

People have put in MAD hours on this game and Bungie said previously that players would convert to Destiny 2.

I get starting over on D2, but there better be some kinda crazy good award to players that get based on something....Grimoire or whatever...

What happen to the 10 year character?

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/your-destiny-character-will-stay-with-you-for-10-y/1100-6429206/

I dunno if I'd come back for a D2 with no character carryover. I put wayyyy too much time (940 hours and counting) in this game with the promise of having the same character(s) and having them carry over. Without that incentive to come back, maybe I just go outside and take more photos.

I played all three character types evenly until House of Wolves dropped then Taken King and there was just too much stuff to do with a single character and still have time for work or a social life let alone three characters. I forgot about the whole characters carrying over thing several months into the game, and honestly wouldn't mind starting Destiny 2 with a fresh slate, on the same page as everyone else.

Part of what lost me during the expansions was how quickly people were figuring things out and how integral the raids were to having the full experience loot and power-wise, or how everyone knew what the coolest guns and armor was so there was very little mystery to whether this legendary heavy machine gun or that legendary fusion rifle was really all that rare or not. it didn't matter any more, just do the raid and infuse all the other stuff.


I've debated deleting a character and starting from scratch on current Destiny for a while, now, actually...

I wonder if they're moving to a more pick-and-choose ability/powers system.

22. "i've noticed the drop rate is like 1 exotic for every 5 times used"
In response to Reply # 20


  

          

..or so...

If you want to farm exotics, do the black garden mission on any difficulty...

Once you get to the end with the 3 bosses...pop a 3 before the first statue comes to life...kill it..

then pop another 3 before the second one comes to life...kill it...

do it again for the third statue....

If nothing, come back and do it again...

IB was stingy with the 3's...i've had more luck with regular crucible and heroic strikes...

rumored to be bringing back all the old raids up to level.

That will bring back the days of raiding VOG, then CE, then KF then that current boring raid.

My only hope is they DON'T add the Taken to any of those...but you know they will.

I think that's confirmed, considering they'll be doing one of these streams about sandbox changes with the return of elemental primaries. It's not like they'd remove the solar element from Mythoclast, right?

They will still have non-elemental versions...

But the primaries with burn damage are now called ADEPT, and are also exotic weapons.

It's something, at least...

In response to Reply # 38


  

          

SMH at y'all day one beta testers. This could launch with a level cap and a three year dlc roadmap. I'm not buying this game until either the definitive edition comes out or they release the game without plans on expanding the level charging fees to do so.

55. "Feels good, man!"
In response to Reply # 54


  

          

Maybe a little bit slower that Destiny 1, but I normally spec my characters for agility and I don't see any way to do that here so it might just be that.

The game looks better for sure, but that might have to do with the PS4 Pro and 4KTV because I remember the old game looking really good when I first played it.

I do miss having ample ammo for shotguns and snipers in PVE but I like having two primaries in PvP.

It also seems like supers aren't nearly as big of a part in the game as before. My super comes up once per PvP game at the most.

With no resurrection for Warlocks, Sentinel Titan seems like the easy star of PvE.

Gunslinger Hunter and Dawnblade Warlock seem like the best PvP choices out of the options given.

PvE seems like it's going to be a lot more interesting based on that first story mission. There's one section where it seems to randomly match you with other players at a specific point which sounds like something that Bungie mentioned wanting to do before the first Destiny came out.

Slow, less emphasis on individual gun skill and movement. Reduced ability spam is fine, but PVP relies too much on team shooting to get kills.

58. "It's been about since the Rise of Iron expansion since I played last"
In response to Reply # 52


  

          

the more they added the less I wanted to play, weirdly.

I got kind of a weak exotic, one of those auto rifles that spins up as you fire. I was a hand cannon / scout rifle guy for basically the entire run of Destiny so I wish I could have had one of those for my big bad.

If I hadn't read up on some more experienced players' impressions I'd have figured my timing was just off, but man did it feel weird not having my fist, grenade and super charge timing down. The timing on all of it just felt weird, I was hitting the grenade button basically on memory two or three times before I could actually fire one off.

On the plus side - man, Destiny still feels good, and I like a lot of the changes they made to the enemies they're recycling. Particularly the Phalanx and Psion, the former because its shield was too annoying before and the latter because their new attacks make them legit threats in a crisis.

The strike was a lot of fun, especially the latter third. So much chaos, I haven't felt challenged like that from Destiny in a long time other than my ill-advised forays into being a tourist on raids.

59. "Destiny 1.5"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

MEH at this whole shit. This has to be the most boring "sequel" in years. This is borderline Ground Zeroes cash grab. The game basically feels the same as Destiny with newer guns and a new premise.

I'm waiting three years when I can buy all five DLC packs with the base game and level cap increase for $40. Y'all can spend $180 on this game all you want but fuck that.

60. "PC Beta"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Hot damn this feels good! I've always given Destiny it's props on how tight the controls felt on the console, feels just as good on the PC landing those head shots and the overall movement of your character.

Not sure if it's just me but this game is optimized great for the PC. The opening mission had me engaged big time and when we ran the strike it was very impressed. It was more or less the same as I expected but here's to hoping they go even bigger and better. So far I'm in. Shame this is getting released on PC a month after consoles but so far from what I've seen it'll be worth the wait.

In response to Reply # 60

i dropped it to 1880p to get a more stable frame rate. unfortunately i know 0 people who are going to get this on PC and that's the version i want to play. all those hot extra frames and pixels!

destiny seems like it's balanced for 30 fps play so going console won't be the end of the world but playing it at half of the PC version's frame rate and resolution it's probably going to be very disappointing for a little while

In response to Reply # 61


  

          

That's very comforting knowing it can default that high and run fine. Most of the people I played D1 with are switching so I'm not too worried about that part I gained most of them through a Destiny LFG site so I'm sure I can get enough for the raids using that again.

62. "The game looks great."
In response to Reply # 60


          

My movement and aim are terrible on keyboard and mouse, though. I have to actively think about doing every single thing, and nothing comes naturally yet. I've gone from top 1% on console to looking like a complete idiot trying to move around and pull of the same things I did in D1 on a controller. I can't do routine things like sliding out of corner while aiming to engage in a gun fight, and trying to use vertical movement with aiming feels so awkward. Plugging in the controller and playing felt pretty good, and I went 16-0 the first game I used it, but I'll stick to keyboard and mouse to get better.

I'll probably end up getting the game on PS4 as well, but I will probably main on PC once it comes out. Lack of cross saving sucks.

In response to Reply # 62


  

          

I could see people getting it early for consoles and switching to PC for that release as long as they had a one time transfer. Would be a double purchase for some. Stick with that kb/m once you get it down you may love it. That being said the original Destiny is one of the best controller shooters I've ever played so either way you should be fine.

Are you playing on PS4 yet? I played a bit the first week or so, but I haven't much since then. I could use a PVP buddy again, because playing solo is too frustrating.

66. "i'm on the fence. is there much more to this game beyond the loot?"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

i wasn't sold on the beta. the story mission seemed ok but the strike was really boring. the pvp is of no interest to me

the main appeal of this game seems to be that it looks and plays really well and has loot. loot doesn't do much for me these days. lately i prefer to play games that reward the player getting better at playing the game rather than the game doling out items that make the game easier or more palatable. destiny seems like it is mostly the latter with a tiny bit of the former

not sure what i'm expecting as a response (if anything). can someone articulate what makes destiny so great?

Consensus seems to be it's Destiny 1 perfected but not pushing the genre anywhere new (which is about what I expected).

The loot is cool in that it gives you new ways to enjoy the mechanics and gunplay, but it's the sublime shooting that kept me coming back to the first one.

If you played the beta and it didn't hook you, I'd skip it though. There's a lot of good games out this year and I can't see sinking time into something you aren't feeling.

It's Destiny perfected. Wouldn't have minded if they added some depth/variation to the melee attacks but the game controls/plays so well I can easily see this being my main game for the rest of the year.

I loved the SHIT out of Horizon, but all I read and heard on podcasts was anybody that owned a Switch and got Zelda fell off Horizon IMMEEJIATLY after they started Zelda

From my non-Zelda perspective they look pretty different honestly, Horizon is kind of a fake open world but Zelda seemed like it had a lot of stuff going on and tons of secrets

It's a really fun, beautifully made game. Im kinda forcing myself to take more time playing it as the level and weapon design really are fantastic. My biggest gripes are the lack of new enemies (the same from Destiny 1) and I'd like to see spaceships be something more than cosmetic.

I'd love to try the others, but it seems like public events and just doing daily challenges / lost sectors is way more time efficient


also, uh, all the subquest/adventure stuff on Titan is GREAT. It's kinda wild how much better some of the optional stuff is than the mainline story; honestly, it's definitely wild they didn't just incorporate all this into the storyline itself since it's kind of a weird experience just picking them at random.

I was at 235 and thought since I could get into the nightfall it would be all good.

Nope - ass kicked up and down the strike and that bullshit 10 minute timer didn't help.

I need to get to 260 before trying a nightfall again.

Probably not playing this game the most efficient way but playing it just the same as I last left Destiny nearly two years ago and having a ton of fun.

I will say it's a bit weird having had the game for a week and a half (and having not played the game at ALL the past weekend due to staying at the S/O's) and I already have 16 out of, what, 26 possible Titan-equippable exotics? That's CRAZY to me...I've even infused or straight trashed three duplicate Exotics and am holding on to a fourth just because I have to imagine at some point it'll be nice to have a backup for something Bungie hasn't revealed yet.

That just sounds like RNG being RNG. Like: I've played a TON, beat the Raid last, I'm in a large clan that satisfies all the clan objectives in a day, and basically have fuckall for exotics.

But at least I have the Orpheus Rig.

Just lots of redundancy though.

I definitely think they increased the base exotic drop rate while also increasing the likelihood you get something you already have.

not crazy about the grind. i'm level 17 and running the same 2-3 public events ad nauseam to unlock the 3rd subclass. that said, the weapons are starting to further differentiate from other weapons in a pleasing way. finding that one weapon with the right attributes that fully enables the play style/build you're going for probably feels really good in this game. i'm interested in seeing what kind of drops i'll be getting once i hit 20 and start getting into the meat of the game

97. "The "feel" is definitely what makes the series special"
In response to Reply # 96


  

          

RE: Grind - Every change they made between D1 and D2, as well as adjustments they've been patching in, have all been oriented towards reducing "the grind" and making this a game you can play super casual and make progress in. And stuff like unlocking the subclasses is mostly just worded horribly — you don't have to just jam public events, but the language they use makes it sound that way.

RE: Builds - A lot of D1's longevity came from experimenting with the intersection of skill setup and gear selection. The streamlining in D2 has diminished some of that possible experimentation, but there's a good chance things will get more interesting as they run the numbers on PvE and PvP behaviors.

In response to Reply # 98


  

          

All of your Weekly Milestones grant "Powerful Gear" which will be 1 or 2 items that are ~10 LL above your current highest level.

These include:

- Flashpoint (Public Events on a specified planet)
- Call to Arms (Crucible participation)
- Nightfall

If you're in a clan, there are different clan objectives that also grant powerful drops.

Beyond that, Exotic engrams drop at values above your current light level.

In response to Reply # 99


  

          

anytime u get a Exotic weapon or armor piece.

All should give you stronger gear beyond 265.

Highest i've seen in blues is 267.

102. "That soft cap @ 265 is real"
In response to Reply # 101


  

          

Finish story mode - do additional missions that open up exotics - do the flash points (public events) - hit that soft cap at 265 - do the strikes - then nightfall's and raid


It's not as grindy as the last game but it funnels you to upgrade and get loot from different places.

I hope they change up the Iron Banner setup though

I stopped playing on PS4 a few weeks ago. Did the raid and went flawless on Trials a couple times, but I was pretty bored because of the state of PVP.

In response to Reply # 103


  

          

there's nothing to play for...

I know why they did it (weapon balance), but they took the soul of Destiny out of Destiny.

Game feels like a shell of its former self, to me....

Maybe season 2 will be an improvement

the end game grind is ridiculous. even with all the options they give you and all the supposed improvements from D1, getting your power level up post-230 is like putting $1 in a slot machine, pressing buttons mindlessly for 2 hours, and hoping to get $1.01 back. there is no getting better at the game. enemy encounters are boring and trivial. i doubt i'll make another character or get the DLC

Playing on PC, hit level 20 but still haven't finished the main mission since I've been doing everything that popped up. Saw this on reddit and it seems useful to powering up quickly

109. "lots of folks feeling the way y'all do"
In response to Reply # 107


  

          

Light level doesn't matter anymore....

Iron Banner is just a dressed up Crucible with no way to up your light.

The strikes are boring and the missions are yawny one and done's.

It's cool playing Crucible with friends...but that 'I gotta get on and play everyday' is long gone.

They messed their game up and can't walk it back anymore.

Biggest issue for me is the wack perks across all weapons and armor.

Exotics aren't exotics and getting rid of the random roll literally took out any replay value for any part of the game you play.

You have Uriels Gift and get another drop of UG...it's the exact same gun...just shard it.

That goes for any gun....same with any armor.

This game is a soulless version of it's former self.

Why the hell they decided to take all of that development of D1 over those 3 years and then COMPLETELY SCRAP IT to go to this? LOL!

I've never seen such ineptitude from a supposedly superior developer...ever.

They are literally (barely) surviving off game play and feel...that's all they have at this point.

They need to make SWEEPING changes or I'm out as well.

I miss D1.

In response to Reply # 107


  

          

in about a month, it wasn't really hard. somewhat grindy, but not terrible.

my problem wasnt the level grind, it's just that once you hit endgame, D2 feels SEVERELY limited compared to D1. of course, i'm remembering D1 year 3, compared to this being D2 vanilla, so i'm trying to keep my expectations in check, but pve is just boring as fuck and pvp is so frustrating and completely without variety.

but I didn't so I'm playing it every couple of days while I finish games in my backlog. I wish they could've found a way to keep the storytelling engaging during the post game grind.

I liked it but they box you in on what you can do at first. It's free world but you HAVE to complete story missions to unlock certain powers. The story was good and the end game twist is fun so far.

The siege stuff (online and offline) is a cool addition. They are trying to monetize treasure chests for followers and gear but you don't have to buy anything to progress.
