We'll probably get some Strike gameplay from YouTubers soon, which will confirm it. But they only showed 3 Guardians at a time, so probably still 3, plus occasional NPC is my guess.

The cabal expliticly stealing or moving or doing whatever with the traveler isn't expanding the story of the traveler?
YESSSSSSSSSSS day 1 for me
Sony said even before the pro came out that all multiplayer experiences must be the same.
Unless they dropped the base PS4 to say 720p to achieve 60fps, 60fps can't happen on consoles.
I didn't play D1 because I don't have a XB1 or PS4, but if I did, I don't think I would have gotten it. It kind of looked boring in the same way that Borderlands and Diablo are for me. I'm not the type of player to be pulled along just on a slightly better weapon of a small set of weapons. On top of that, the small number of classes with what looked to me are lame abilities, aren't that exciting.
The game coming out on Battle.net is fine with me. Edit: Also I think that was a smart move.
I'll probably end up picking it up after watching a quick look. Though I imagine I won't make it through the story without being bored out of my mind.
From what I'm reading on reactions, almost everything mechanics wise is the same? Is there any meat to this game? Are there going to be like 4 weapon types that just get slightly different looks with a +this or +that?

Fucking garbage. Myself and 3 buddies will have someone left out again. Absolutely no reason it's not 4 player. Sigh.

I'm not disappointed by anything I saw today. Everything looks great for Destiny (except 4v4, not sure how I feel about that). I just didn't see the 2 in Destiny 2, and perhaps they are saving it for E3.
And we're in there for PC.
Plenty of people here love it too Glam, don't worry.
Honestly, sounds like Destiny isn't your type of game.

Can we all just take a minute and appreciate that Deej was nowhere to be seen for this presentation.

I'd guess then 4k 30fps using PS4 Pro, 60fps w/ 1080p? Would need confirmation if PS4s at event are running 4k or 1080p.

I'm thinking about it, and hmm... Yup, I still want 60 FPS on Scorpio, please.

That's fine if people don't agree but I hope they look at it more like bungie is willing to take a risk and change the game in a big way if they feel the game will be better for it.
Also I think starting with 4v4 base and having a crazy event mode that is 6v6 is a lot better than what D1 does and that is pretty much play trails when it's up if you want less chaos.
Yeah, not sure why PVP has 4 player fireteams, but PVE, the main feature of the game, still does not :\

I have mixed feelings about 4v4. The extra two means that players like Kadey can build a team with mixed player skills because whatever. 4v4 means more hardcore.
Eh well won't know it till we try it.

Don't pass gaas, it is your Destiny!
I could have easily said 2-3hrs, same difference for me. I play destiny 1hr or so at a time. I love the game but rarely have more then 2hrs to sit down and play a game.
I didn't mean it to sound like I was upset about it, destiny is my favorite game even considering I never finished a raid. I get my fun from other parts of it.
Seems like a catastrophe would be a good time to inteoduce a new class foundation like the other 3 have foundations.
Could it happen? Maybe. A team could also keep LeBron out of the finals, I suppose. I wouldn't bet against COD after the last decade of people expecting this to be the year something topples it.

This is DGaf
I was the king of Facetious back during D1s time
And people bit the bait every time
The raw size doesn't matter at all. What is important is whether each location is interesting enough to maintain the player's attention level and offset the low count.
I remember wasting time just trekking back and forth in D1 and being bored out of my mind. If D2 is similar with all that dead space then it should get ripped apart.

I mean, Bungie talked about it in interviews. They had a behavioral psychologist on staff who's job was to make the game addicting outside of the gameplay loop.

But then the people who have 4 buddies would have someone left out again.

The game looks legit good. A lot of people of GAF just really hate Destiny and this is a great opportunity for them to voice their opinion.

Last-gen is a HUGE reason why many of the structural limitations of Destiny 1 are the way they are, and Destiny 1 on last-gen was being supported up until very recently, and stil was to an extent after RoI shipped, which didn't support last-gen due to the raid.
This is the first major piece of Destiny content that has been built from the ground up knowing they wouldn't have to support PS3/360 whatsoever.
"Why is it limited to 4? Man, there are five of us we always have to leave someone out..."
How is blizzards voice chat? I'm only familiar with steam.
It is, sure, but it's not what the original story direction was... are we ever going to deal with The Darkness again???
I'm just having a hard time letting go.
It's like in the first few hours of Destiny you battled off this overwelming force that was about to consume the solar system, that was hunting the traveler. You fight it off (what felt like "for now") and then skirmish with the other alien races from that point on... and we are starting a new game and that's still the plot. The Darkness was the real threat in the beginning, and they just threw that away...
Why ? every other big games are 60FPS on the same console, their engine sucks, that's all I see.
But that's never going to happen. The never-ending problem with all MMOs is producing content and having enough that players feel like there's enough variety that everything doesn't get stale quickly. Early Destiny 1 definitely had the problem of everything feeling samey and grindy with very little feeling difference between some of the things you did but everyone agreed the Vex Raid was a slam dunk in being creative and unique.
There really shouldn't be any disagreement over people wanting more of that kind of thing. More well-designed raids is ideally what everyone should want.

Actually there are revamped weapon slots and I was seeing all sorts of new stuff on the HUD during game play that imply new weapon perks and mechanics.
Seems like there's something like a Super Select? Seemed like players were using multiple different supers in game instead of locked to one.
If people really care about that sort of depth there might be something there. I'd wait on YouTubers and Reddit to tear into the new game.
THIS is what pisses me off, so we can all play PVP together but the only mode we care about (coop) still limited to three. So dumb this pisses me off.

So you want to play with only Scorpio players?

I really liked the stream. It looks like exactly what I wanted from this game. I cannot wait for September
Couldn't agree more. 6v6 should be a side mode, not the norm. I'm curious to hear from more diehard Destiny fans familiar with the PvP scene -- was this something that people wanted? Why do yall think Bungie lowered the player count?
We don't know yet but if it's the same empty tedious stuff again I agree with you.
I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt right now simply because they can't be that stupid to make the same mistakes they've been grilled over for in the past 3 years.

Guided games doesn't increase the player cap...
I think they have to find a fair balance between delivering something that is recognizable and new as well. If they went off the rails and changed all of the UI, gameplay mechanics, shooting, etc. It wouldnt be Destiny anymore. This game has a huge following and you cant risk alienating those fans by reworking the entire game.
The stuff that has changed with the engine is not going to be something we see from a live stream. Its going to be through the changes they make to the game after launch through events, adding new world bosses, etc. These are things that D1 could not do without massive work being done. (Theres a Kotaku article that goes in depth about the issue, I dont have time to find it now).

No chance pro or Scorpio will run at 60 FPS with lots of enemies and AI with shit Jaguar CPU's.
Maybe next gen when we get proper power level CPU's.
They could of done crucible at 60 though with dedi servers.
This argument doesn't work too well because five players isn't exactly asking for much.

I wanted to hear the end of light. Instead, it feels like the same thing...level to 20, then light again. Meh to the meh.

All the haters are afraid of DGAF. We are one. We are also a bit crazy.
