There is something about this game that's off for me. I have no idea what it is, just feels like it's missing something from all the gameplay we have seen.
Destiny Alpha gameplay leak
- Thread starter pravus
- Start date
lol
Seriously, how does anybody look at that video and think fun ? Generic objective, generic enemy drops, terrible A.I, and an almost non-existent sense of difficulty.
I am sure the difficulty was toned down intentionally. Aside from that, I agree with the generic game play. IMO, one aspect that looked silly was the random 3rd person view when performing some kind of energy wave that blows the AI like a grenade.
I'm glad you posted it here. I have the Xbox section as my bookmark and often forget that any other section exists.
Low difficulty usually has to do more with lower damage dealing from enemies and lower enemy HP. That was certainly the case in previous videos, but this time it was definitely harder in that respect. Gathering around like they are r******d, not utilizing any covers, etc. must mean AI is not finished at all.
People's expectations are too high for this one. This game will NOT be the new Halo, and it will NOT be the new Borderlands. It will be a lesser version of both of them combined that will garner 7's and 8's in reviews, be liked, but not loved by most, (at least at first) but hated by a very vocal minority. So...it'll be Watch Dogs.
I pre-ordered only to participate in the beta. It doesn't mean I'll buy it.
I'm not sold yet. For a public event, I wanted to see other folk playing too. I thought it be more hectic. I don't mind big expansive worlds to explore; if there are cool things to discover.
It would probably be more accurate to say that its Activision, so they'll pay for their 8's.
Yeah I woulda thought they'd play with a full house for the public event, especially if that's what the game is all about.
I think it's possible. I pre-ordered from Amazon which will give me Beta Access. The beta should be released prior to any game shipment. Therefore, I'll cancel my Amazon order.
I plan on doing that no matter what, because I rather get it digitally.
How else would it be possible ? A BETA takes place pre-release. Most places do not take your money till it is shipped, or retail stores the day the game releases.
I have to agree...for some reason every gameplay video or trailer has just been unimpressive to me. I mean it's not the graphics as I think it looks good to great and I even like the premise (the earth being ravaged and the "Guardian" Orb protecting the humans). I mean it could be totally epic but it doesn't come across that way in what they've shown. I think it may have to do somewhat with the player not having a solid identity in the world....we have no idea how the player and story are intertwined. I went to preorder some games last night and found myself leaning towards SO instead of Destiny (even though I know probably as little about SO). I mean I'm probably going to preorder Destiny as well but decided to wait until after E3 to see what is shown. I haven't read every preview/seen every video though so could be missing some stuff. The things I'm looking for from Destiny to really make me want to preorder:
- Exploration: Mainly within the "areas" you go to (Old Russia, the moon; other planets?). Is there stuff to do besides fighting?
- How do the "ships" work and how is the space travel handled/presented? (this could be epic if handled in the right way....if not, could be a dud)
- Is there space combat? If so, is it fun? (If it's there and similar the combat in Halo: Reach, then I'd be happy with that as that was pretty fun)
For those who aren't getting the hype for this game, check out this vid. It should help you understand why some of us are looking forward to this
and in Fable 3 you could rule a kingdom. I think we all know how that turned out. Reading off a list of developer talk does not trump what we actually see with actual gameplay footage.
The problem that I have with the actual footage shown is that it's the same 10 mins or so of footage, over and over again. We need to see something new, something exciting, I think thats why people are getting so down on the game. Heck the game comes out in September, there should be plenty to get people whipped up without revealing to much, especially seeing how its such an ambitious and large game. Even the vid that Almighty posted had the same snippets of gameplay over and over.
Wow, Bungie's employing teams 24/7 for the next 10 years to develop new content every day. I wonder how they're going to monetize that?
Wow....Borderlands 3.0?
Never even played the Borderlands games but this looks like a poorly executed version.
GOATY 2014. Best seller 2014.
Get ready folks.
