I would, but they're cheap and one refuses to play on a m/kb because he feels a m/kb doesn't require skill and is "cheating" lol.
I want to play this game on console, but the 30 fps in the console beta was super choppy (same as destiny 1). They don't have the motion blur dialed in like Uncharted does, which looks smooth in comparison.
Kinda afraid to play the pc open beta because my friends are on console.

what? no... D1 is one of the smoothest 30fps games out there. It's one thing I absolutely loved about the game, I could jump between that and a 60fps shooter like COD or Titanfall and have no issues. That's not always the case when moving from 60fps to 30fps, but Bungie made Destiny smooth as hell.

Hmm. I have Friday off, so I won't be taking part unless they extend it until then. Have a copy I got for free with my 1080ti purchase a few months ago. Glad that everyone seems to be enjoying it.

It's the same game but smoother. Some will notice, others won't.
Personally I'd rather have a community after three weeks.

It really depends on if OP is talking about "game (destiny) changing" or "game (videogaming in general) changing". It's been my experience that most people assume the latter whenever this term is used, so it's a normal reaction to cock your head to the side and scrunch up your nose when you read OP's post.
I don't think people are shit posting, it's just that people are discussing this without talking about the same thing.

Lol are you implying PC won't have a community after three weeks? Because that wouldn't be a smart thing to imply...
Also some won't notice 60 FPS and a higher FOV? Who?
Ah, thanks!
I certainly read it as 'Destiny 2 opened my eyes to the benefits of PC gaming'. Whether or not thats contentious I don't know

After years of people saying Destiny felt so good to play, and years of almost every action game being 60fps, even on consoles; Destiny 2 really feels like ass on consoles. Can't imagine sinking that much time into it with how it feels and the FOV.
G Pro or G403 depending on your size/shape preference. Both have top tier sensors and low weight. G Pro has cheaper variants with a sensor that's almost as good (G102/G203 depending on region) and G403 also has wireless options (G403 wireless and G703). The wireless is flawless, the only cons are price premium and extra weight.
To be fair, the PC can be rather hit or miss when it comes to what thrives and what doesn't on the platform. A game like the original Titanfall died rather quickly to the point where I was finding at most 500 players a year after launch. Titanfall 2 is better, but not by much. I have the game through EA Access on PC and have a hard time finding anything beyond Attrition. The same sort of thing happens with most of the newer Call of Duty titles where you are lucky to get in a match that isn't Team Deathmatch. I also find fighting games particularly brutal on PC due to a lack of a community for those titles (crossplay titles exempted).
With that said, for every Titanfall or Call of Duty there is an Overwatch or PUBG. I find that once PC gamers find something they like, they stick to it like glue (e.g. CSGO). Where Destiny 2 falls into place on PC is anyone's guess. However, I can't blame anyone for being at least a little cautious especially considering a big part of Destiny is the P2P player interaction. Hoping it does well on PC.

Depends on how capable you want it. 1080p60 can be done very reasonably for this game.
If i'm going to get back into pc gaming, i want all in. So 4k60 would be the target.

should I be able to preload the beta atm? I can only see the pre-purchase button.

Tbh I would go for 1440p unlocked fps with gsync.

I would target 1440p in 2017 and 2018. Otherwise you're looking at a costly rig.
And playing >60fps on a 144Hz Gsync monitor is pretty nice, too.
Sändersson
Member
Agreed. I would never go for lower frames for 4k in bf1 for example.
7700k and 1080 ti.

Turn down MSAA, DoF, and AO and it should be 4k60.
"All in" for me is 1080p/240hz lol. But I think most people would prefer 1440p/144hz variable.
Even the smoothest 30 is only 50% of 60fps gaming heaven no matter how you butter it.
Do you just go into every destiny thread you see and bash on the game? We got that you didn't like the game in the 5+ diff threads you posted the same thing in.

I don't mean to pile on you but this is something everyone should know, (Or at least I thought everyone knew) the Division has a BUNCH of client-side processing which is a HUGE no-no when it comes to MMO's and MP games and I have no idea how Ubi didn't catch that.
Destiny 2 has no such thing.
Real talk, I bought that CPU 6 years ago. Don't spend money on that.

Yeah, and it looks like Bungie is taking a pretty hard line when it comes to other apps running at the same time.
Personally, I don't care about the PvP in this game, so I don't really care even if there are hackers, but it seems like Bungie is pretty serious about preserving the integrity of the game.

Well I looked at this OT and rolled my eyes. I played the Destiny 2 beta on console and didn't see much improvement from the original but still I tried it on PC to see if it was really that much better.
So long and short of it... It plays much much better on PC, shooting feels better, the game runs better, better options, ect. PC is by far going to be the best way to play Destiny 2. I'm not sold on it by any means, I'll wait and see after what happened with the first game and its lack of meaningful content but yeah if Destiny is your thing and you've got a halfway decent PC it is certainly the way to play.
Honestly I'd think about purchasing it if it was going to go the overwatch route and having free updates but since its not its still a wait and see for me. I had fun though which is something I didn't have on the console version, its really surprisingly how much better it plays on PC, I'm impressed.

Sometimes I play games that are worse than the ones I'd play otherwise because my friends are playing them.

It scares me how good this PC version is (as a PS4 Pro devotee).
I'll be maining on both, RIP life: dual no-lifing confirmed for 2017/2018 lol.
Very much this: 30fps has never felt better than in the Destiny 2 beta; so I'm happy maining on PS4 as well: shouldn't be too much of an inertia hit swapping between (I'm used to it being a 1/2 console / 1/2 PC gamer in general).

yeah I'm good, I was benchmarking against the very opening with all the fire and particles and shit, been a solid 60+ after that part pretty much
