Raids are the best thing about Destiny and are what makes it stand out in a world of mediocre FPS games. They're an unrivalled experience on consoles imo.
Yes. But it was a weird sentiment. Not "I might never play", but I will never. But he explained.

It will be on their Twitch channel.

All those jumping puzzles did was drive home why Bungie should not do platforming they suck ass at it, they were frustrating and boring at best for 90% of the folks I played with.

I thought they were awesome.

Loved the jumping puzzles. What I'd really like to see are vehicle sections like the end of Halo 1 & 3.

For real, making me feel like all I got left now is whatever R* got, may be my only hope this year.
So disappointed after COD: Can't Breath was revealed a few weeks back cause that shit looks lame.
My 10 bux is on Bungie dropping the ball today, they have been great at that for most of Destiny.
But I do hope not.

You think getting the Siva Cluster off top that mountain was awesome?
Does anyone know if I'll be able to download the stream and watch it back later at a decent quality afterwards? The hotel I'm at has horrible Wifi.
I really liked the jumping stuff
I hadn't played a raid until I got the Xbox version of Destiny. I was a solo PS4 player until just before TTK. Then I got it on Xbox One and joined a group and they took me through the previous raids and then we all did Kings Fall together and it was amazing. I never did the new raid that came with Rise of Iron and I've mostly returned to a solo player as the group I used to play with had a falling out and are now split into two groups with me somewhere in the middle.
This is another one of the reasons I think they should have matchmaking or some sort of system to get into them. I understand why this wouldn't work in some respects due to the difficult nature of raids and communication needed for some bosses but I would at least like the option. Strikes are so fun but I do have those awful moments were both my matchmade partners are awful, if I get at least one other good high light player with me then we can usually cary the third.
Anyway, I'm super excited for the reveal tonight - I'm surprised at how tight lipped they've been and how nothing has leaked, its made the hype overflow actually.

I hate them all. I suck at platforming tho. Like I resort to leaving the party then joining again once my raid group is past it bad.

Wtf are you serious??! What leaks ? Please elaborate.
I have super high hopes for D2. Don't let us down Bungie:..
Also interested.

As a matter of fact, yes. For context, I love jumping puzzles and one of my favorites was this one from Guild Wars 2.
Twitch saves the video, so you can check their Twitch channel afterwards for VODs and watch it there. They will also likely upload the broadcast to their Youtube channel sometime afterward as well.
I'm in the same situation.
I wouldn't hold my breath for YouTube, usually takes them DAYS to upload it.

Some basic things I hope will be shown tonight:
Social tools that makes player interactions much easier than it was in Destiny 1. That means proper clan support, ability to easily and quickly join and leave groups, ability to use text chat
More vehicles. Going from Halo to Destiny, I felt this was probably the biggest step backwards in terms of combat design. Halo games had so many possible combat scenarios because of the vehicular element to the sandbox
Alien weapons. In the same way that the lack of vehicles felt like a step backwards in terms of combat. So too did the distinct lack of alien weapons. The alien weapons in Destiny 1 were really just standard weapons with an alien skin.
A cutscene with dialogue that isn't facepalm inducing. I know the expansion were better storywise than vanilla Destiny 1, but I still really need to see a cutscene that gives me confidence that the story in Destiny 2 won't be a complete clusterfuck or missing

I personally don't believe that info is real, but take from it what you will. If it is true there is going to be an insane meltdown lol. Just no way that's all Bungie came up with after everything that happened with D1, they would just be insane.
Looks like BS to me.

imo all of this is fine with me and basically an gradual evolution of D1. Nothing to see here.

It sounds like an expansion and not a new game. Why would we even have to give up our existing content to add this?
It's already been beaten.
First time we made flawless in the OG VoG amid the early day bugs and glitches.
Would be really strange for it to be on the battle.net launcher especially now they recently branded it as the Blizzard app. Especially as it was because of apparently not wanting to confuse people with the branding. (still dumb)
You'd have a situation where you have all the Blizzard games on the Blizzard launcher....and Destiny from Bungie. That's just weird and confusing.

i'd be totally fine with destiny 1.5. i didn't realize so many people had expectations of huge changes.

No way those leaks can be real. God i hope not. Consider me completely bummed if so

We've already had a couple of destiny 1.5s. this is a new game, I'm hoping for more.

because most people want a fresh start and not to keep playing with characters they've played to death.

Beating Wrath of the Machine for the first time felt just as awesome, for me. Love that raid almost as much as VoG. But yeah, beating VoG was unlike anything else I've ever done in a video game before, and that'll stick with me forever. So my great memories and friends made along the way.

I guess tell that to all those MMO players who have played the same characters for a decade+. A fresh start only matters for D2 if it's actually fresh, not just more of the same.

When leaks like this happen, the reality of it rains down on the hype parade, 7 times out of 10 its true. What i think is most important with D2 is creating a new engine to fully utilize current generation technology. Blow us away with presentation, Bungie

this has been discussed non-stop for the last year. if you wanted characters to carry over, then that's fine, but you're in the minority.
just imagine what first kills of MMO bosses with 40 people on voice chat felt like

Same. If I'm not mistaken that subreddit doesn't normally scrub rumors.
I'm hyped to hear PS4Pro is getting some love. Making me think about focusing on getting a 4K tv is more important than building my PC right away.

Great presentation with a lack of content again will mean this game gets shit on at a level we have never seen before. Think of the hate for D1 and then multiply that by 10.
