Tough =/= bullet sponge.
They aren't hard though, they are just damage sponges.
My biggest and main complaint. I also love how Ghost doesn't believe Vex time travel / has doubts at first. Completely jars versus the grimoire cards.
Yeah, it's huge, but the problem is it requires people attempt to look. Also, the Moon is much harder to navigate (imo) than Russia. I died once when I went SLIGHTLY off the path into a crater because I was out of bounds.
I was so pissed.

I think to unlock the second game type, you have to play the first, to unlock the 3rd, you have to play the second etc.
That's how it worked for me, but it could have been some other factor at play.

I already have all 4 game modes, but nothing of them are Salvage,
it is just Clash, Control. Free for all and Skirmish, really odd.

sure, for the most part press doesn't seem too blown away either.
I'm playing almost exclusively in PvP and I'm leveling nearly as fast if not faster than my brother who plays mostly PvE. So yeah, pick the bounties well and you can make a huge progress.
Also I've been awarded with tons of rare stuff. I'm wearing full blue Titan special armor from neck to toe.

Warming up to the PvP the more abilities you get the more fun it is. They really should have some way to limit level bonus advantages as they are almost impossible to overcome. Weapons are good but against someone with their abilities maxed you are going to struggle.
Blink Strike/Arc Blade + Showstopper for the win..... that is one sexy ass combo. Triple kills all day.
Don't give them false hope, Yes you get very good exp but to get the good gear you have to do very well. Most of the people that get stomped don't get jack shit when its reward time.

I got to 15 in 8 hours just from doing the earth missions(hard mode) and pvp. Every bounty you get done gives you half a level, you get a huge chunk of a level for every pvp match, it's easy as hell to get max out, and I was actually trying to avoid leveling up since my friends were behind. Game may as well not even have a level up system.

Dear God Destiny's single player is awful. Truly terrible, this is completely unacceptable for such an expensive production.

Same as it is in Halo. Free for all. Pretty fun.
Free for all with 6

PVP Mode i think.
You'll unlock the last mode as soon as you do a match in rumble.
edit:
You can pass it down to your other characters, but converting it to glimmer can also give you rare materials that you'll need to upgrade rarer items.

There is a lot of chaos involved in rumble I find the most methodical match up is the last one the 3 v 3 team deathmatch. Rumble is usually you kill him someone kills you I kill them someone kills me then they get shot rinse wash repeat. As I am learning the boards I am figuring out where not to be ...... which is making it a bit more strategic and less of a clusterfuck. Its fun as hell though.
Scrap it. Scrap greens too so you can get perks for blues.

Think of CoD's Free For All...... I think.

Unless you're saving that piece of gear for another character, I see no reason to keep it.
Yeah the 3v3 Skirmish with teamates being able to revive you is the most strategic IMO.
Eh, this is a little harsh I think. Sure, it could have been much more fulfilling than what we received, but I still think the enemy encounters and core gameplay are fun. It's mainly the storytelling and mission designs that are lacking.

(up to Level 6)
Anyone else feel like the gameplay is tolerable, but it juuuuust missed the mark for genuine fun?
Like some enemies explode when you shoot them in certain spots, which makes for satisfying kills, yet other times they turn into total bullet sponges and you just end up spamming half your ammo into them.
I don't think the enemy design helps, they all sort of look a bit too similar.
Also the vehicles so far have been awful, granted I've only flown two, but they both feel like the battery is just dieing ... so while you're moving you get the feeling of constant de-acceleration.
I'll probably complete the game, but right now it's just a bit too clunky.

after you choose the mission and before you hit launch. There is a box at the bottom that you can click on. It has different difficulties.

If they weren't hard we wouldn't have been dying over and over again, sure they are bullet sponges but why is that inherently a bad thing? It makes for a long and thrilling battle, it shouldn't be a cakewalk for christs sake.
The Venus boss would be tough even if he had lower health, that motherfuckers splash damage makes it impossible to stay in one place for too long.
It's fun till you realize it's a repition of two formulas:
A) Go into a room, take out a ton of enemies, including a boss, and then deploy Ghost.
B) Deploy ghost, defend the room(For no reason, as ghost can't take damage), and kill every enemy. Oddly enough, Ghost's hack or whatever finishes the exact moment you kill the last enemy. Amazing.
PvP is this game's redeeming feature. Warframe has better co-op.

you have to select mission first and then click on the green bar that shows the difficulty level at the bottom

Tried my first raid just now and they're pretty fun. Me and a random player just managed to beat two different raids from the first selection without any real hassle so I'm hoping the next tiers are harder.
Seems like there will be a decent amount of this content to keep me busy now that the story is out of the wag too. I have one legitimate complaint though.

Seriously? The rift is there for like two cut scenes? One of which it takes you to automatically. That's a great missed opportunity for at least an extra PvP map to add location variety.

Before you click launch on orbit, there is another box to the right of the destination box, default it says normal, click on that.

When you selct the mission and are in orbit it. It gives you the normal and hard one to choose.
Edit: Beaten ^^

tough bosses have a variety of moves that require you to learn, anticipate, dodge and look for an opening. destiny's bosses just have a lot of health, one really powerful attack, and trash mobs to swarm you. they're only "difficult" because of the overwhelming amount of shielded enemies.
You mean strikes, right?
Raids are 6-man ordeals that don't have matchmaking and I think the game only has one in it so far.

Short story: There's not much story, but the Game itself is awesome, pretty much like borderlands AAA (but better since the loot in Destiny is MUCH MUCH harder to get) .
PD: PvP IS AMAZING. It's Halo at its core with tweaks that makes it unique. Really enjoying PvP.
