how is the online deathmatch (slayer?) multiplayer? is it comparable to halo's? are there vehicles to drive and fly?

It's okay, but would be considered pretty damn weak if any game was putting it forth as their main multi offering. It's only disappointing when you consider it's coming from Bungie.

There's one map though, the large map in Mars, that's just much too big for the 12 person player count. The larger Moon map seems better designed to make up for this, but the one on Mars had me searching for people more often than not.

I kind of hope they patch in 8vs8.
 
I think this game has promise and huge potential, but man am I gonna be pissed if there's not a good amount of free content on top of the expansions. Feels like just the base of a game and not something fully fleshed out, which makes me a bit annoyed that it's the best selling new IP ever, apparently.

Still having fun with friends regardless, just hope they don't drop the ball. Getting serious early-access type vibes from all this.

A couple of the bigger maps have vehicles. I didn't play a ton of the Halo series but I dabbled with the later games. I think Destiny plays like something in between Halo and COD in some respects, with its own unique elements. Kill time is quicker than Halo but much longer than COD. The sci fi setting is much more Halo-like obviously. I think most importantly, it seems to me that it works and works well, which is more than I can say about the last few CODs. I'm not getting those rage moments where I'm sure I'm getting killed by bad netcode. Of course, the longer time to kill would tend to compensate for that to a degree if there was some amount of it.

As much as I want to like this, I just can't get into it... kinda bored my already:

- Missions are pretty much the same
- Getting back to the same area over and over to kill a diferent bunch of mobs.. he not fun
- Combat is kind of the same
- Loot is not that varied nor that interesting to play with, little stats.. not meaningful
- Lore is nonsensical
- Self serious tone is dorky and annoying
- Lack of matchmaking for key activities is WTF?

For a game that is supose to be like the biggest game ever and stuff, it feels very contrived, almost small... monotonous and flat. It may be my personal bias as I usually don't like loot driven games with shooters (contradictory design), Yet this being Bungie I was expecting more I guess.

Glad most of you guys are enjoying, I wish I was.

I agree for the most part. Wish I could figure out how to coop with randoms.

You're not alone.

Don't even know why they made the clan/group system if it's basically useless.

I don't think you can, outside of manually adding them to your friends list

I hope I am wrong

Maybe people will think I'm a badass by being associated with the gaffers who are actually good at the game. :lol

I say we should get a requested feature list going with everything we'd like to see.

I'd put down guild halls and better in-game clan management.

I posted this in the GAF-Clan thread but didn't get any responses, so maybe my question is that stupid, but...

How do you interact with clan/alliance members in-game? I have the NA GAF East 3 clan tag and everything, but I don't see any interface for partying up with clan/alliance mates.
Click to expand...

Basically you have to add your clan people as PSN friends. It would have been better if the Clan/Alliance had a list in game you could select from.
 
I'm level 18 and have no cool looking gear for my Hunter. I love how the Hunter plays, but they're definitely the ugliest class in the early game.
 
Hey folks....I got this game yesterday and I need some folks to play with on PS4 (I'd join the Gaf clans...but I can't really make sense of the post). I should be on around 9pm CST once I get the child unit put to sleep, so if any other non-hardcore parent type people want to shoot some stuff add kamicowzi to your PSN friends list!

Do those cost anything? If so, I'm gonna wait till I have gear I know I'll want to keep for a while. Glimmer doesn't grow on trees!

I was under the impression that you equip the shader like a piece of equipment, so it isn't a permanent one time use thing. Maybe someone further along in the game can confirm.
 
JetBlackPanda said:
Yeah, Emblems, ship, shaders etc.

edit: are we talking about the same thing? I entered codes into PSN with my Ghost edition.
Click to expand...
I'm talking about the same thing believe. The issue I'm having is that I created one character then I decided I wanted to try a different character but when I went to the vendor all of my Ghost edition digital content that I redeemed with my first character is no longer there for my second character.
 
how do I log-in on Bungie site with different account?

I used my other PSN account to log in to Bungie.net and when I log out and log in again it automatically log in with my other PSN account.
 
Damn, even after becoming a member just the other day, I still can't get used to the near-asynchronous flow of the site. I want my live chat and instantaneous feedback. :(

Kind of agree. I want to just sit in the grass, not listen a bunch of hipsters (my tower is seemingly all locals) talk about the new Twin Shadow EP with a Hudson Mowhawke remix or what labels they subscribe to on drip.fm...

Same. I'm from the St. Louis area and all I see is STL gamer tags. I'd like there to be chat in game world though.

Nice to hear you got yours undamaged. Maybe the non-first day ones have a better chance of showing up undamaged. Gives me hope for my X1 Ghost edition.

Mine was un damaged as well.

I was honestly expecting problems. I have not had good luck with Amazon and special editions as of late. Hopefully yours escapes unscathed as well.

we are talking about the special orders vendor right? not the post master.
 
This game kept me up till 4 last night because I kept trying to do a decent PvP match but I always got slaughtered even though my team was winning. Maybe I need better gear? I don't know. The maps are so confusing for me.
 
Is it me or is ever level 10 going to look the same and repeat that at level 14?

(level 10 you'll be in your red plate steel set, while at 14 you will be in your orange/blue Fireplate set?

Speaking of shaders... 5 more levels before I can use mine.
Click to expand...

Stupid how shaders are locked behind a level requirement.

You know what this game needs?

Hardcore mode. Perma-death with character wipe. Would love that kind of challenge. Constantly on your toes. Heart in your throat when you get nailed in the face with an Ogre beam.

They could put up a shrine in the Tower that lists all the fallen Hardcore guardians with their profile pics.
 
At what level is it feasible to start going into the Old Russia areas that were deliberately impossible in the beta? I will probably be level 13, or close to it, after the asteroid belt story mission.

So you're saying I should just open it and play. :P
I can just play missions with random people right? Not just friends...
Click to expand...

I wish they can show us population numbers. I am really starting to worry that the Xbox One version will taper off heavily come November between COD and Halo.
 
I was trying to be clever when I posted this last night.
It was either lost, or not funny.

Finally got some decent gear, and just hit Lv,15 so SunDog class engaged!

However... there's one that really annoys me, as a SunBro you'd think the magic in my palm would go from the blue void shit to sun magic in the gear inventory screen no?

:(
Click to expand...

Yeah, the melee doesn't change either. Surprised me.
 
Just found a chest on the moon that gave me a warlock bond called "trained chaos" it's a blue/rare item too. Says something about "controlling space and time. Mere matter and energy will follow". Anyone know if it actually does anything?

My first death was falling off a cliff without any enemies around. There would be a serious temper tantrum going on if I did that with a hardcore character.
 
I seem to remember in the beta that when you did story missions, it would search for 2 other people to join your fireteam. Didn't do this for any of the missions I did.

Guys, the handgun is OP in PvP.
Click to expand...

It's the weapon that requires the most skill though. It requires accuracy, aiming reticle is difficult in comparison to other weapons, if you miss a couple shots you're out of luck, reload time is still pretty long, and you can't get multi kills with it. I think it's perfectly fine where it is.
