[Trouble]

Is it me or do guns drop way more early on than they did in D1? I can't keep up. Not a bad problem to have.

 

[AstroNut325]

Production value is top notch and the missions locations have had great variety. Main complaint is what i feared. Dialogue is still Saturday morning cartoon drivel and the story seems very hollyleywood generic.

Sounds like a huge step up to me!

 

[Ivory Samoan]

I really can't emphasize enough how incredible the sound design is. Some of the best I've ever heard right up there with DICE titles.

Yep, it's dang amazing.

Actual feels in Destiny...awesomeness.

 

[Lavalamp1138]

Of course my internet would go out. Just reached level 5 and I was having a blast.

Maybe a bit more, but the progression system requires more frequent drops than Vanilla.

 

[Freeman76]

The main villain is so well designed, a cross between Bane and Darth Vader

 

[Orthogonal]

It is, lol. D1 had such a low bar in the regard.

 

[whatever6352]

I'm already confused with the story. After the intro area, was there a large time gap? And what vision are they saying I had about that shard? I must have missed a cutscene or something

I was thinking the same thing about the vision my guardian had because I'm lost. Not sure if it didn't play on my end or if it's something they'll show later.

 

[ManUnkindH]

So where do I find my preorder weapons/bonuses? Do I have to talk to somebody at the farm?

3 Missions in and HA move over Bungie Halo titles. This game has a better campaign so far.

 

[Crash331]

When you guys were chasing the bird, did you fall and die and cut directly to a cut scene with the farm lady? I wasn’t sure if I bugged out there. I tried to make jump to the bird and missed and fell, but instead of the respawn screen I got a cutscene.

 

[Kyne]

Crucible not working? Or just slow?

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

Alright, so far so good. I like the presentation and sound design. The enemies as annoying as ever, but that's Destiny.

 

[Tevos]

I hate the way my character looks now.

[GeorgioCostanzaX]

Lol 69% downloaded...remind me to not forget to digitally preorder again.

Also wondering this. Same with my deluxe items. All I can see are a bunch of green emotes and a couple of purple ones and 1 really dull player card... Is that it?

Yep I slipped and fell and the scene triggered after my accident

[OriginalPoe]

I welcome criticism. I think I'm right 100%

 

[SolidChamp]

Anyone know if DLC is region locked?

 

[SolicitorPirate]

Is there any way to customize your character after creation? I'm trying to decide on whether to keep my old characters or delete them in favour of cooler looking people

 

[BarringGaffner]

I hate the way my character looks now.

Does it automatically import your Destiny 1 character? I am hoping for a chance to alter my character abit.

Yep, i did the same with the same result

Eh, Halo still seems to have the better-constructed narratives. Destiny has the better universe/lore though. The thing is that Destiny 2 actually tries to tell a concrete narrative in that universe.

 

[SanguineShark]

Question for my friend. He got a white PS4 pro, and it has a blue sticker on the back. Brand new, but the sticker is peeling off. It's not the warranty sticker, is it? Is it safe to peel off?

Edit: The sticker is see through.

 

[psynergylover]

someone got an exotic engram from a public event...but he/she is like lvl 6!!?!?

 

[TheTurboFD]

4 games in a row I've had someone leave while we're winning ....

Ditto.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Hmmm crucible feel MUCH crispier than the beta did.

Seriously.

 

[Defect]

Is PvP working?

 

[Mutagenic]

Hmm, some of the outdoor scenes on the second planet don't look great.

 

[LEITZSABER]

I'm already confused with the story. After the intro area, was there a large time gap? And what vision are they saying I had about that shard? I must have missed a cutscene or something

I was about to ask this. I don’t think there was a cutscene with the vision. Seems like something is missing.

 

[ManUnkindH]

Why is the first mission so dumbed down compared to the beta? I feel like it was way too easy, no challenge whatsoever...

 

[zoukka]

They still got no time to explain.

 

[jiiikoo]

So umm... Where do I snag a sparrow??

 

[gossi]

It's the same, except the shoot the turbines bit is different.

Sparrows are

much later in game

[j_rocca42]

Yes

 

[StaffyManasse]

It's a mixture of both. Sure there are punz, but when it's serious - it's serious. Especially at the beginning.

It's also damn epic.

Puns really are the worst. Give me Dinklebot any day instead of puns and one-liners.

But I suppose I'm buying Destiny too.

 

[Defect]

Yes

Taking forever to find a match.

 

[Sane_Man]

This is soooooo good!!

 

[FinKL]

It's the first mission of the game, should it be very hard?

 

[Bsigg12]

I didn't get one until level

20

 

[ManUnkindH]

It's the first mission of the game, should it be very hard?

No, but I felt the one in the beta hit the sweet spot compared to the final one.

Also another question: can I choose the difficulty for the story missions if I wanna play on hard or something?

 

[j_rocca42]

Taking forever to find a match.

Weird. I hopped into quickplay right away.

 

[JigglesBunny]

Yeah, I don't get that "vision" bit. Was that the

Spoiler

jumbled cutscene with the class symbols?

 

[Frillen]

Hit level 11 last night, and had a blast, mostly playing alone. I did quite a few public events, but for some reason didn't get the trophy until I had done 4-5 of them.

Anyway, how do you unlock more fast travel spots? I've been to several areas on Earth, but I still only have the first fast travel spot to travel to.

 

[Trickster]

Now that the actual game is out, could someone answer these questions?

• How much room do you have for items this time? Hopefully it's not as limited as D1?
  
• Have there been any improvement in how you can communicate with people you meet in the world or social space? Or are you still limited to the most basic of emote and crouch spamming?
  
• What is the vehicle situation like? I've only seen people use the same vehicles as in Destiny 1, but the trailers have shown glimpses of things like tanks, are they actually player drivable, and how rare is that?
  
• What are the other strike bosses like compared to the inverted spire one? More complex, or about the same?

 

[Hunter-Zero]

No, but I felt the one in the beta hit the sweet spot compared to the final one.

Well in the Beta you had good weapons, here you have just crap
