No review scores to influence how the game should be received!? WHATEVER SHALL YOU DO!?

Sing one tune now and a different later if history has anything to say about it. :p
 
Seeing a lot of buzz about how it shouldn't be played solo...

I won't be starting the game until tonight. Are the regional clans active enough that I might be able to find some people to play with? What's the disparity in content like between levels 1 and, say, 5? Can a level 1 play with a level 5, or is it pretty linear? Are the towns / global channels active enough to find people to group with?
 
This game has an identity issue. It was marketed really bad.

personally Its probably my GOTY if all I get is more of the beta.

However I can see where someone expecting a FPS MMO from bungie would be angry that we got Firefight the game with character progression.

Worst marketing I've ever seen for such a ludicrously expensive game.

And hell Activision are usually great at marketing! I'm wondering if alot of the problem messaging wise has been from Bungie actually.
 
PvP and fighting mobs with some buddies for loot is fun enough, but holy shit is the story terrible, and the missions are bland/all follow the same structure. Couldnt spoil it if I tried. Avoid solo play, or you will be dissapointed.

if that's all you're interested in - don't buy.
Oh shit :( ... But but ... I thought the lore was the main attraction .... :(... So Traveller is just shit?

Not happy hearing these things.... Hype going down
 
It's obvious an incredible amount of effort and resources has gone into developing this game. If Destiny gets less than a 90 average on Metacritic I will be seriously f*cking pissed.
What it if its not deserving of that score?

Hours worked doesn't ensure or guarantee a high score.


I think this game will not be as well received as we expect. I loved the beta. However, I'm going to wait and see how people are truly feeling about the game.
 
Go to GafClan official page and set it as your PS/Xbox clan. Otherwise, it won't show in the game.

Official page where...? on Bungie.Net?...I am not even sure I am in the gaf clan either...also my pre-order Vanguard armory isnt showing at the tower from the Quatermaster...
 
I am pissed off. Happen 3 times already, go to a perfectly possible "underlevelled" mission and all of my teammates keep rage quitting.
 
Incoming?

Guys, guys, my question about golden chests got buried so I am asking it again - do the golden chests that were in the beta make a return?

is this like that FFXIII "play the game for 20 hours, its get good then" defense

Well, I wouldn't really take anyone's opinion on Diablo III seriously until they reach Level 70 and start doing Torment Rifts.

I would also assume that Destiny's legacy will rest on its end-game content.

The game controls are good, but not great. No matter what you cannot turn around that quickly. In a few hours already caught up to the beta and now the game is repetitive as hell. It is a very polished shooter with the similar robots on every planet with 1 location. The exploration is limited by invisible walls all the time so give up trying to explore. Sorry, the game should be a $30 arcade game.....but after spending another $100 on DLC the game will be worth $60.

I kind of got that vibe from the beta and it's been the thing that's turned me off the the most, I'm interested in the crucible mode as my friends keep telling that PvP is the best thing in this game, but I'm just not sure about it. Seems like it's all hype.

I got suckered into Titanfall and soon ended up very bored with that after about 16 hours of playing. Maybe I should rent this.
 
I've asked in the other thread but how the heck do I delete my save game/character? My guy looks derpy and I want to start with a new one without taking up a 2nd save slot.

Helllllp!

I had to finish a strike practically solo. One team mate quit and the other one NEVER went out of cover and was too afraid to shoot. I had 190 kills, he had 62.....

EDIT: I am PS4 by the way
 
Also every video I see seems like it shows the same map and similar fights and enemies. Where is all the discovery and exploration stuff?

I'm still waiting for my digital copy to be enabled, but those impression are actually making me worry about one thing I noticed since the first reveals for the game.
That the shipped game would actually still be a BETA as in game content, since there was no different storyline or NPC interaction for race (which is something common in MMOs) and how it played like Phantasy Star Online, or even the lack of player owned custom shops where you can sell loot and crafted items.

Angry Joe early review made me feel the same, it's almost like they didn't know how to make it more MMO like, or perfectly knowing they could use that for later updates/dlc hopefully behind a paywall.

But still, I want to play and made my own idea out of it.

I will play with my buddy later tonight, but for now this game is not very fun with randoms.

I must ask, what is the point having a shop if it will almost never have the type of weapon I want (Scout Rifle).
 
What the hell GAF..,. These impressions don't sound like the hype this game got here and all around the internets. Sounds very generic and not much variety. My white bundle should be in today but the impressions so far seem underwhelming. I hope co-op is better. I am not much into MP.

I'm a huge coop guy. If you want to run I'll run with you. Not into PVP but love exploring and stuff.

If you're on ps4, go to party options from the home screen and turn party volume all the way up. Worked for me, using A40's with a mix amp though, I have chat dialed all the way over too.

Wow. derp. Thank you for this.

Somehow even though I've never touched that setting or knew it was there it was all the way to the "other" section. No wonder my volume levels were all messed up.

It is amazing that the lack of "real" reviews somehow forces people to read troll user reviews over at Metacritic...

How about trying to assess the game using your own critical thinking for once in your life?

This dependency on reviews is like a taught disability.
 
I'm glad they changed the look and coloring of the intro gear. Was worried about looking exactly the same as I did in alpha and beta.

Also, what about these shaders we got these codes for. When are those possible to be used? And are shaders one shot items or when you buy a shader can you use it on any equipment that allows shaders?

Servers have been alive for 95% of people playing for the past 8 hours. Any " reviews " right now are just knee-jerk overreaction pieces. I have my opinion on the game, but def. not going to review the whole package until I can actually experience the whole package.

Since there's only one Raid this is probably a game people can start judging before end game content. Considering how much I enjoyed the alpha and beta, the fact that the complaints are the same doesn't bother me.
 
Anyone else feel like Bungie should have just went all-out fantasy?

After playing this for some time, I feel like a completely open world action RPG really would have been something else, especially with Bungie's world design.

But I won't lie, I'm having quite a time with the game as it is.
 
Wow! Reading through this page and the last one makes me think again! I like fps games but they're not my fav genre.

What's the difference between the guardian edition and normal edition on ps4?
 
Should I dismantle my weapons and armor or save everything?

The Guardian edition has all of the content in the Limited and Ghost.
