What? I am to blame that Bungie promised me a game full of ambition and a galaxy to explore and I'm not getting that?

You cannot go back there in explore. Which shows you how they may be blocking things off dude.
It is so blatant that you should wonder what else may be blocked of in these early releases. IIRC they claim that this content is less than ten percent of the final game so I am just speculating that there might be more that we haven't had access to.

Thats dosent mean more cant open up later in the game, im kinda wondering where the Playstation exlusive raid will be? im guessing it will not be part of the story so either it will open up just for playstation users or it will be in space on a ship or a station.

*Solar System, let's be fair. But I agree with you.
Just because they block it off after you've been there, doesn't really mean it should count a blocked off content imo.
I really like Borderlands gunplay.
And personally, if the game even comes close to having the length of Borderlands, I'd be quite happy. A much grander scale would have been fantastic, but it still sounds like it could be a great, fairly lengthy game to play. As a fan of Borderlands, this game still looks right up my alley.
IIRC they said the strike is on Mars.

Read any of the other Destiny threads or threads about upcoming games and you'll see people praising Destiny to high heaven.
Aye, this thread is full of people who were bitching in the beta thread that they didn't enjoy the game and now are validating their opinions. This news is genuinely disappointing, but if you spent some time at all in the sublevels of earth and parts with ?? monsters, you realize we haven't seen all of old Russia yet. A straight run through end to end is most likely going to be in excess of 15 hours if you include strikes and raids, which is on the long spectrum for most fps campaigns but short relative to RPGs.

There's going to be way more areas than this. You'll just have to pay for them. 10 year plan, Activision, etc.

There will obviously be DLC with new planets, so I'll just wait for the GOTY edition so it will be cheaper and have more content.
Whatever it is, it sucks for regular players just starting.
If they keep it as beginner unfriendly as it is, player count will plummet like that in any other PvP fps not named COD/BF.
It's super unbalanced. The auto rifles rip through players like no other weapon does and the Titan and Warlock supers guarantee kills due to the invincibility granted.
And you're totally wrong on supers. I easily get 3 - 5 every match (unless I have shit team mates and my team is getting decimated).
Edit: Misread your comment. But in response to it, players on a team that is doing well accumulate a lot of supers and those definitely turn the tide. I've had matches were I get killed by a super while defending a zone only to respawn and get killed by another super. Plus, the orbs of light granting meter make things worse.
(They should just remove the orbs from PvP.)
And it will probably unlock for $1.99 after a year. Or you can get that and a cape for $2.99.

Guess what? It's still the biggest game this year and more likely then not will be the next big game franchise this gen.
Then this game might not be your cup of tea
I'm not 'stretching' anything, I'm enjoying the game, not everyone's play style is the same
Some people like to rip through their gifts Xmas morning and then say 'that's it?!'
I like to open a gift and play with it before moving on to the next one
Borderlands is cool the first 2 weeks before people dupe and 'trade' all the legendary items, thus making the online broken with a bunch of people running around in God mode. Plus no pvp in borderlands

Bexause they actually played the game and the gameplay is GREAT.
People like the game?
Yeah, I don't get the reasoning on why we should "expect" them to deliver a half-assed game just because of the franchise they're trying to build. (especially after saying things like "WE HAVE TO EARN A SEQUEL.")

I would love to see tons of content. The one area per planet doesn't sound all that great but I've logged around 20 hours of game time in a restricted beta with two characters. I can see myself getting 60 - 80 hours easy out of three characters and the PVP in the full game. Throw the gear grind in there and the fact the combat/skills are fun to use and it might end up being more. That would be worth my money right there.

There is only one 'raid' though. I wish Bungie would let us free roam with a full fireteam.

You know what? I think I may wait until game of the year edition, or a we need sales edition. This game isn't that great, and sounds like none of the content will be more exciting than mmo quest design.
Ok are you just trolling at this point? If you were in the other destiny threads you would be reading the articles and being up to date on all these quotes.

There is no invincibility on the warlock and titan supers. At least not on Warlock as I've been killed a plenty before fully casting my super.
Auto rifles are dangerous but scout rifles kill too. I am a beast with the shotgun.
Who said there was only 'one' raid?
Did vanilla WoW even ship with a Raid or was naxrammas patched in later on.
The starting gun is actually pretty decent for the Crucible, and the game doesn't let you play PVP until you reach a certain level (mostly so you have your super and double jumping). I don't feel like I have any other ability in the beta that's helping me out. It's mostly my OP assault rifle.
But of course, every multiplayer game is unfriendly to newbies.

And yet I keep seeing even the press still calling it an MMO >_<

There is nothing "Massive" about Destiny, which would make it an MO... in this content that means it's like any other FPS these days =/

So.... It's gonna be Titanfall again?? K preorder just cancelled from amazon.

What your talking in raids and raids in this game aren't comparable. These are 6 man supposedly so they're really just dungeons or a dungeon. Not really mmo type raids.

It's a fantasy space opera so it draws more from Star Wars than from Gravity.

As long as they keep content kicking with DLC/Raids, I will be ok with this.
It's curing my WoW itch, but if it fails to live up to it I might just have to get back on the crack... and I don't want that.

What about the vault you can glitch into from Old Russia? It was something like Sephitaph Vault.
A strike would be a dungeon, a Raid is 6 people, multiple check points, multiple bosses, multiple stages
They don't label it an MMO because of people like yourself who expect it to be identical to what you can play on a PC
Vanilla WOW shipped with multiple raids actually.

That's still a dungeon. Most mmo's I've played have dungeons like that what your describing. Raids are generally different. Gw1, gw2, Tera, Vindictus, WoW. you name it.
lol seriously. Can't imagine how big the withdrawl thread is going to be + the official OT.
Yeah youre right. A lot of this place just looks for reasons to bitch about something these days. Anything. SMH. So mindnumbing but i guess I really cant be surprised.
