Honestly, I stopped watching. It still looked like the same elements to me. The parts with treasure maps and lost sectors sounds interesting, but I'm curious how that works. Does everyone have the same treasure map as me?

I want a world that will change. I don't want to cycle through the worlds just to collect materials to upgrade and repeat again. I want to be exploring and come upon some person who needs my help, that will be unique to me.

I'll pre-order to get into the beta, but I'm still reserved on the whole thing.
 
Bungie Embraces PC With 'Destiny 2'

All the specs and details about the sequels jump from consoles

There are lots of reasons to be excited about Destiny 2, and one of them is the game's arrival on PC. The mouse and keyboard clan missed out the first time around, but Bungie is ready to remedy that with the sequel. The game will be available through Battle.net, and we've got the all important specs here.

"We’re gonna be right on there with World of Warcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, Heroes of the Storm, and Hearthstone," says lead designer Luke Smith. "It’s like a tray full of experiences that you can love like a hobby, and full of passionate communities."

The PC version will support:

  • 4k Resolution Support (3820x2160)
  • Uncapped framerate
  • Full mouse and keyboard support with custom key mapping
  • Text chat
  • Adjustable Field of View
  • Detailed PC settings screen
  • 21:9 monitor support
To give you a rough idea of performance, the PC system that Bungie was running during the gameplay reveal was an i7-7700K 4.2GHz with 16GB of RAM and a GTX 1080Ti graphics card.

At the beginning i was like a dog with his little pinky out until i saw the gameplay and it went back in.

What a joke. This can clearly be put this into the first game because they have made so many changes on the first version.

Blah.

Whats wrong with battle.net?

I like it. It's light, simple interface, all games are literally a click away... I don't get the hate I'm seeing all over the place.

Its not Steam(all needed really) and whats up with the STUPID numbers and s*** they put next to the gamertags.
I also am not a fan of Blizzard ie they are way overrated and this is a attempt to monopolize things.
This is what hurts PC gaming...all these stupid services/confusion.

I like the new built in group up interface. Nice that they found a better way to find players in activities.

A lot of people seem to be mad that it is only Destiny 1.5, but it looks fun to me? I guess an upgrade to what we have is what I want.
Click to expand...
It looks familiar because they are building a universe ie like Star Wars does and nobody says anything..why? Because SW has proven itself and people are use to it.
We can hate all we want here but the game WILL be HUGE and to the non believers...I can't wait to post the numbers.

If the 30fps is true.... fu xbo for holding PS4/Pro/PC/Scorpio back.
Click to expand...

PC has unlocked framerate.

You can play 30fps, 60fps, 75fps, 100fps, 120fps, 144fps etc etc...

XBO isn't holding anything back; i'm surprised you're still on this 'parity' kick 4 years later... with a Sony backed game no less.

They aren't monopolizing anything, they literally only have Blizzard made games on their app, plus Destiny 2.

Steam is the closest thing to a monopoly as far as game clients go.

You know how you come off when you post this sort of thing?

Also it's funny you complain at others apparently doing exactly what valve want to do with steam.....

yes xbo has been holding multiplats back.
Parity is real and I blame xbo.
That's like saying Windows is a monopoly cause we are basically forced to use it.
PC gaming and steam go hand and hand like Windows and PC.
 
Wow, just checking the comment section of various websites and its obvious the hate is strong for this game. I wonder if the sequel will measure up to the original in terms of sales. I also know the loudest internet whiners are not the majority so perhaps this is just a lot of hot air from people who never got that one special piece of gear.

you had no intentions of doing anything but troll the game but yet you are in the thread with much posts... This speaks for itself.

exactly what it is...we have certain members here at union who been bitter for not getting certain loot and they know who they are.
 
I'm not even going to comment on the parity thing further, we've been over it a thousand times; we simply don't agree on that part and it's not like I haven't given a fair argument.

As for the monopoly thing, there is zero basis for it. A client that will have a grand total of 7 games? No.

I have zero alliance to any client. GOG, Blizzard App, Origin, Uplay, or Steam will all get my dollar if they earn it.

Out of all of them, Blizzard App is simply the least annoying to me since it launches fast and downloads fast, gives me zero issues.. I can't complain.

you haven't given a argument..
It's common knowledge that the weakest platform is in mind with 3rd party games..REALLY not hard.
Are you thinking it will just be Destiny 2?
Haha
What PC gamer doesn't prefer steam?
Lol
Don't you defend games for Windows as well?
 
VaLLiancE said:
why I'm a actual multiformat unlike you.
Bet you getting Scorpio 4 years in the generation over a ps4 when it's been putting out stellar games. That's some plastic luv.
Click to expand...

Both are and I don't need 2 consoles.
But no please have another breakdown due to some over the top love for this title.
If you can't accept many didnt like it that's your problem not ours.

Are you really saying that me and you haven't discussed "console parity" on this forum before? I don't even.... I've given plenty of argument, clearly you haven't read any of them or bothered to do anything but gloss over.
..

The vast majority of my games are on Steam but that is simply because Steam has a stranglehold on PC gaming (a monopoly if you will) and no matter where you buy a game, even if it's external, you have 99% chance that the game key you're buying is going to be a Steam Key. If a key is available on another client and it's cheaper... why would I buy it on Steam? Uplay, GOG, and Origin all download games just the same.

"Games for Windows Live"? No. You're clearly making up s***. The only GFWL title I have ever owned was Bioshock 2 and it was purchased via Steam and I had no clue it was GFWL until after I installed it.

edit: basically, I like Steam as much as the next person. But now that all of the other clients have the same basic feature set and do it well; I'm willing to let the sale dictate where my money goes. Five years ago, yeah, clearly only on Steam. It's a much different landscape these days and I'm all in for price/benefit to me.

It will probably outsell the original, but people are definitely more cautious since the original missed the mark so bad and Bungie didn't do much to alleviate it with what they showed today.

I bet it doesn't outsell Wildlands. At any rate based on the trailer, if you liked the first Destiny I would expect Destiny 2 to be right up that alley.

Destiny is not Star Wars by the way. Not even close and I can't say I like Star Wars either.
 
I love the mini E3 event Bungie did for this game. I just hope that doesn't mean they will be skipping E3.
 
I'm actually surprised it took Activision this long to start having games attached to battle.net. I really expected the last couple of Call of Duty's to be battle.net pc exclusives. Might have more to due with Call of Duty's annual nature though.

I'm still a little bitter I couldn't get a full set of Trials gear. I wish I could blame it on the sucky players I teamed up with from LFG but the truth is I was most likely the weak link. :sad:

I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Blizzard was actually reluctant to the idea and maybe some oversight stepped in and pushed to make it happen. That whole "let's rename it to Blizzard App NOW!!!" thing was always kind of weird. It's even a bit goofy as far as names go and with Activision coming out on stage today, calling it Battle.net and all that, it just seems like maybe there is more to it.

Typically the two companies stay out of each others lives on things like this, almost zero cross-over.

My gut feeling is that Bungie probably wanted to take Bungie.net to the next level, from website to client/launcher and that idea got shot down by Activision. The next option was Steam, but that is a direct 30% cut from every single copy sold, plus they have to pay for advertising and face time to keep their title from being buried by the mountain of indies. I feel like the move to battlenet was out of necessity, because getting their own client going would be too much of a task to handle this late into development and after all; they are sorta part of the same company, but it is weird that this will be the only title on Blizzard App that isn't running on Blizzards servers.

Even the statement from Blizzard seemed kind of off; they pretty much state that they have no intention of adding other non-Blizzard games and kind of put this out there that it will be a one-off type thing specifically for Destiny.

Honestly, I can't blame them. Anything they add to the app will directly compete for their customers who were, before today, only seeing Blizzard ads, products and focused 100% on lining their own pockets.

Nah Sony's deal will mean they have to show it at E3 as well
Click to expand...

Definitely. I'd expect a live stage demo at the very least along with probably some new console specific announcements.

No way Sony would dump all that cash and not use it to generate more buzz.

I'm the opposite, I played the beta in the first one and had fun with it and bought the game but I did get tired of it after about a month or so because it just seemed like I was going to the same places and doing the same things over and over again. The stuff they showed today not only looked much better but they actually seem to have a real campaign this time on top of it. At least so far this looks like what I wanted the last game to be. I know they did the gameplay right with the first game they just missed the mark on content, variety, visuals and a real campaign and it looks to me like they've addressed all of those issues.
