I wonder how many Microsoft execs are killing themselves right now.

Zack Fair Fanboy

LMAO. I'm thinking half of them got killed by:

Smasandian Smell the Ashes

None. Why would they be? They make money on the licensing and from what I read, they will make money because they have minority stake in Bungie.

Destiny in a nutshell: Glorified Firefight on steroids.

Smasandian Smell the Ashes

Yep. If you are into that, it's ****ing gorgeous and interesting setting to do it in.

I just want to play Borderlands when I'm playing Destiny.

I plan on beating the game and then trading it in for Shadows of Mordor (if it turns out to be good).

Wei Phoenix One-Eyed Dragon Of Oshu

Yeah so far if I had to choose one over the other then I would pick Borderlands over Destiny. Destiny has potential to be better than it is right now.

Isn't that what everyone expected before buying it though?

Smasandian Smell the Ashes

I don't know. I never really got into Destiny until the beta and seeing the open sequence made me want the game. I thought how they did that sequence will follow for the rest of the game (and the grinding\looting) aspect of it.

I know Angry Joe thought it was going to be like a MMO but it's not even close to that.

Not really. A lot of people had very different expectations.

Bungie made a piss poor job of making it clear. Then again what they tried was something different and shit.

I thought cod and battlefield were ridden with shotgunners lol
fusion rifle and shotguns are the only used weapons in multiplayer 😐

Zack Fair Fanboy

Pulse Rifles that good now huh? In the beta it was either AutoRifle or bust.

Interesting.

Nemesis X Cynical Tyrant

I never really saw anything beyond what was presented on launch day. Not saying that's bad mind you. I still enjoy Destiny.

Zack Fair Fanboy

Me too.

BackFire Blood. It's nature's lube

I'm having fun with Destiny for the most part.

I wish the narrative was better, and I wish the mission design wasn't so repetitive, but it's a fun and pretty game. I can see myself playing it a bit here and there for many months.

That's my plan. I don't really care about the story, and I wasn't expecting much story wise. Everything felt generic and meh in the trailers. Like the story in most cheap F2P MMOs lol.

The PVP is pretty fun as well.

Zack Fair Fanboy

Yah it is. Id like it if other shooters with big maps copy the personal bike summon. Makes traveling big maps much better

Something I hate in the story is im never acknowledged as an Awoken...Specifically in a particular part

He said Fusion Rifles and yeah the are good.

The Scout Rifle is my primary weapon but it just does not do enough damage to take people down in fire fights. So I mostly use the Shotgun in PvP I may have to switch to the Autorifle though.

There needs to be ways you can upgrade your weapons so they have a higher magazine capacity and stuff like that. I would love an upgrade system. I would also love a much more robust "resource" collection system.

Like...20 different herbs and metals you can collect with recipes that allow you to make upgrades or something? 🙂
