You might not agree with his conclusion but everything else is just plain facts. In Destiny, a piece of rock or a stair can literally stop you in your tracks. And the difference in ADS speed is also a big change from vanilla.
It doesn't. We weren't discussing fps. Might want to read the conversation before replying.
That's how I feel Destiny is, but thank you for the snarky response I guess?

was worth it for the 60 fps.

question: is this game going to look and play the best on Scorpio...?
60fps would be dope. It was always hard going back and playing Destiny after playing literally every other shooter I've played this gen at 60fps.
PS: I'm picking up Destiny The Complete edition tonight. I figure if I'm gonna complain about the game in this thread I may as well catch up on the new additions.

That's up to Bungie.
No, PC. Because NUDE MODS!!!

Among consoles, it should... but probably not. They targeted parity for D1, I wouldn't be surprised if they did it again.
If this comes out before the Scorpio, I can't imagine it'll be a huge priority for them. We'll have to wait and see if the Scorpio is successful.
Depends on which studio is doing the PC port. Bungie hasn't developed for PC in years.

32 and 64 player battles, please bungie. We need some destiny style war zone.
With supers? That would be a mess.

Lmao, if you want to ignore 3 years of patch notes and developer commentary explicitly stating that they slowed the game down, then that's cool! Bungie games are notorious for having ignorant fanbases, so you'd fit right in.

You should show me the path to the summit of whatever mountain you are looking down on everyone from.
Zoba is probably one of the best destiny pvpers on gaf. He's being sarcastic I hope lol
Edit: he's serious!
I really just cannot wait for this game. September cannot come fast enough!
I enjoyed Destiny for the most part but am really looking forward to a version that's not held back by PS3 and 360 support.
I really hope the PC version works well, as I'd much prefer to play on PC than PS4.

I was Top 30 in PvP from June 2014 - June 2015, so I know the mechanics inside and out. But that's irrelevant - I can produce numerical data showing each and every weapon and ability that they slowed down and I can tell you which patch they did it in.
I don't care whether or not anyone still likes the game, but saying that it's not clunky is willful ignorance when the numbers say that it is literally less responsive than it was 3 years ago. I believe those are called alternative facts.

Is top 30 summit enough?
Lol. I was just about to say that I would trust Zoba's assessment of PVP movement.

Or get stuck in the portal during Aetheon!
Remember when you could choose who went in the portal lol!?!?
Can't wait!

So no story mode? I just don't get the hype for this game.
Have you ever played it? Every Destiny iteration so far has had Campaign missions with optional co-op.

I'm not trying to be a dick, but even the people still playing the game competitively have commented on how much dumber it's gotten in Bungie's quest for "balance". There was a point where the game was nothing but grenades and melees because players moved too slow to respond with their primaries. The game launched like Melee and got nerfed into Brawl.
I just hope their experiments have led to a stronger vision for the game's sandbox in the sequel. It was bad enough that they couldn't separate PvE and PvP, but now they'll have to worry about PC meta.

The bolded is very important, and I hope Bungie realizes that their whole "weapons should have a time to shine, and then go back to irrelevance" thing was a failure. I love the game, but they did an awful job of balancing weapons and never did get it right. I felt that year 1 balance was pretty solid actually, and when they started majorly nerfing hand cannons it fell of a cliff.

This is my fervent hope. Because if Destiny 2 is a continuation of the current meta and feel of PVP, I probably won't bother. The severe difference in PVP now compared to Year One is scary.
What's worse is that they actually brought back Hand Cannons to a respectable place with the recent updates, only to nerf their effective range again with this recent update.
I contribute the game feeling worse because of the connections more than the actual game. Stuff like hitting a button and nothing happening and when you look like you are actually hitting something and you aren't. But Destiny is still the best feeling shooter out there for me. If the game were to ever go 60fps it would be like taking off training weights.
Put the person who designed the final encounter of Fear's Embrace in charge of more encounters.
We need more hard SP content with challenging mechanics and rooms designed around constant movement instead of cowering in a corner.
Yes, I know about the FE entrance. Never used it.

Destiny went into development in 2010 and was apparently conceptualized even before that. It was designed to run well on 360/PS3 and I still think it was one of the best looking games on those platforms.
Seven years later I'm sure Bungie has learned a whole lot about what works and what doesn't in this game.

I will never ever understand how or why people become so hostile towards others for having a different opinion concerning a videogame. Holy fuck its unreal and I feel its been in most recent threads discussing certain games.
With that said, can't wait for Destiny 2.

This is a good point. The game's netcode seems to have deteriorated. I don't know the appropriate vernacular for this sort of thing, but the netcode has been a constant struggle for the game ever since they changed the way players match one another.
I'm sure there are players that were not affected by those changes, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
I look forward to seeing how you spin the data to fit your narrow perspective, since you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

Prime members only but Amazon has it for $39. Amazing price, in my opinion.

Lol I trust Zoba's opinion on anything Destiny or Halo related
yall just coming out of the woodwork here with all these negative comments yet a mass majority of you have never once posted in any of the 44 OT's :brokeback:
After playing on hotel wifi for a week, if you have potato internet you're not going to have a good time. It was like playing a totally different game. Get off the Walmart internet folks.

Agreed. The environment also feels very static and dead. It makes you feel like you're moving through boxes with enemies in it rather than a living, breathing world. Look at a game like Horizon where the illusion is more convincing.
Do you guys think Destiny will have wall ledge climbing? If there is anything about the mobility I would improve it would be that, and maybe a longer slide like Titanfall 2.

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
That can't be their reason.
Titanfall 2 is 60fps across all platforms, and Destiny 1 wasn't​ at the cutting edge of graphics by any stretch. In fact I was comparing textures and enviros, and Wolfenstein TNO pushes around the same level of visuals at 60.
This time there is no PS360 to consider, so the lowest common denominator should provide pretty awesome graphics in their engine's current stage.

I know that I benefited from the switch to SBMM because I stopped playing guys who got 40 kills in Control but that is probably when Destiny PVP started to feel off.
The various nerfs did not help the matter.
