The modular/fragmented nature of the world is a bit strange to me, and I sorta long for a bit more traditional world in terms of the structure of everything.

also so friggin many loading screens. good god.

and long unskippable cutscenes? which are followed by a long loading screen? crime.

I haven't run into too many cutscenes aside from at the beginning of the game. Same with load screens aside from when your ship is heading to a planet.

It doesn't have Halo's focus on movement, razor-sharp balance, or a big variety between levels.

It does have a great world to explore, amazing OST (blows Halo 4 shit out of the water), and decent gunplay.

so basically a downgrade if you're a hardcore halo fan, that's massively disappointing, not even sure how that could happen seeing as it's their formula.

I have two questions.

Question 1: I accidentally clicked "finish" when making my character. Is there a way I can go back and continue?

Question 2: I just completed the intro, and am now in the city. How do I escape and explore the universe? lol

Thank you!

#1 don't know
#2 you have to play some of the story first. Start by doing the first few missions.


Hey I don't see any vanguard armor from my preorder. Wasn't there a YouTube someone posted on this?
 
Really torn about my next sesh. Do I:

Continue story with my level 5 Titan?
Start my exo lady hunter?
Start my human breh warlock?
Play my four more control matches for the crucible bounty so hopefully the rest of the crucible types unlock and I never have to play control again? (Please tell me that's what happens after that bounty)

Hmmmmm!

You tell no lies. The loading is stupidly disruptive, IMO.

Worst offender is leaving orbit. You hit launch, you get a 3s timer that counts down to zero and... ... ... ... no... I know its zero.... ... ... Give it a sec... ... ... OK. Now we can launch. Why do this? Why count down at all? Why wait after the countdown? WHY? BY THE TRAVELER, WHY?
 
My friend and I have been playing a bit.

Yeah... it is basically an extended version of the Beta, so there is nothing fun in this game. PvP is ass, PvE is barebones and the looting is terrible.

I feel like if this game was f2p like Warframe I would have dropped it after a day. The hype is the only reason I am still trying to figure it out, but this game is ass =(
 
I'm looking forward to seeing what the critics say about this one. Bungie seemed to be doing some damage control last night, but if you ask me this is definitely a quality game.

Stop posting and sell it on craigslist?

Seriously, no voice chat unless you form a fireteam, which includes PvPs, strikes, raids, etc. I'm letting my pre-order sit at Gamestop and hoping they indicate a fix is coming. If not, I'll just apply it elsewhere I guess.

I don't understand it at all. Their explanation of "we don't want you to hear nasty chat" and "we want you to make friends" is complete bullshit: (1) a mute button fixes the first problem and (2) they make it incredibly difficult to group with anyone outside of people you already know. How can you claim it is a social game and remove the most critical social aspect?

I'm starting to think they just could not figure out how to get proximity chat with the people you casually run into to work, and they nixed the whole thing.

Hell no!!!
I don't want to hear strangers talk to me that I don't give a damn about in an mmo and just want them do their jobs. It's not hard to focus on goal without voice chat unless you're a lazy bummer or a slacker. Though, that's so rare to meet randoms people who listen to anyone, lolz.

Voice chat should be only for people who are in your friend list.
God damn, like hell I want to hear frenquently someone to bash other, reading them is already enough for me.

Mute option ?
I used it a lot on Smite so much that I would've prefer no chat option and just registered commands to give to give orders.
Because too much people are vile on these online games that you wonder where their common sense did go.

Loading is not good for sure. They don't even do background loading during cut scenes it seems.

But at least you can manage inventory stuff and skill assignments while you wait.

Really? How?

What damage? Designers Republic suing them because they're not the best who ever did graphic design in a game anymore now that Destiny is out?

Hmm, I actually find the loading to be quite reasonable. The cutscenes will probably get tedious during a second playthrough, maybe they can fix that in a patch?

Wut. Give an option to mute all chat and then let the rest of us use proximity chat. God forbid there be social features in a game that was touted as a social game.

So you played the beta, found that nothing was fun, and somehow expected the full game to miraculously be completely different?
 
How is everyone playing? I get disconnected from bungie servers everytime I start playing. I haven't even gotten to play the 1st level..

I didn't get mine until 4:30ish my time
 
Very smooth launch but some loading times did take very long but overall it plays very very good. Also being a Warlock is awesome loved it in the beta. And Playstation Headset Profile changed to destiny, bungie did good work on that.
 
Not to sound like I'm part of a defense force or anything, but I'm all the way in the Moon at level 12 and the loading has only bothered me in the beginning of the game with the intro cutscene.
 
I got to level 5 after finishing the Earth missions and decided to jump into the crucible for the 5 matches bounty. Finished at level 9 after turning in the bounties and had so much fun. They've definitely improved the PvP servers because I had very little lag and the hit detection was supremely better. The aiming also feels much, much better than during the beta.

The maps are amazing too! Loving them all so far. Going to jump into the Earth strike and Moon missions tomorrow.

I can only redeem the Beta icon on a single character?

Am I missing something?
Click to expand...

It should already be on your characters/account, I didn't do anything to 'redeem' mine I don't think. Also, most people I've seen in-game have had the beta icon, lol.
 
So not only did they seemingly not fix the loot drops at the end of a Crucible match, they somehow made it worse by reducing the drop rate.
 
Those of you with the Digital Guardian Edition on PS4, did the "Destiny Collector's Edition Digital Content Pack" with the ghost shell etc. show up on your downloads list or did it simply download automatically in the background while Destiny was installing?

I ask because it showed up as a specific download for my digital PS3 version but I have not noticed a similar listing on my PS4 download queue.
