Behold yet again the true power of nowadays internet, where a small minority of vocal good for nothing haters will steer the decisions that affect 1000x times more people. Like a damn piece of texture in this game will change anything in the world.
All I can say is that it feels like Destiny 1 but with a change in the weapon system to differentiate from it, that is both good and bad at the same time, still find it hard to justify a 60 bucks buy for it though.
For me the new weapon system is crap, can't really choose a load out, you are just locked in to whatever gun happens to drops for that slot, I haven't seen any sniper rifles yet, and the heavy ammo is so scarce that killing the las boss in the strike is a chore with how much of a bullet sponge it is.
In PvP, I just got a feel that 4v4 is not enough, dunno why they even removed 6v6, seems like maps and teams were reduced in size to make everything more fast paced, not a big fan of that.
I hope they put in the heavy ammo changes they said will make on PC beta for PvE, so at least I can replay and judge again, but not holding my breath, my hate for the new weapon slot system will still be there.
Overall I can't see myself getting this game at launch, gonna wait and see what happens on release, my main gripe with lore and story was not quelled at all with the mission you get to play, it just feels like any other D1 mission plus Cayde-6 throwing in a joke here and there.
If anything has put me off getting Destiny 2 this has to be there near the top along with Luke Smith's confession a while ago that they didn't have a clue of what the Darkness was and they will not be mentioning it anymore in this game.
Create a world, lay out a story and great scenery for lore, then put all that lore in grimoire cards that have to be read in a web browser outside the game, leaving everyone caring about lore to play a lackluster campaign with a somewhat dull final mission.
After that, blame the failures in Destiny on "we didn't have enough manpower to make new content fast enough", this is not at all the wrong part of Destiny 1, on the contrary, less DLC and a more complete game from scratch would have made it a much better game overall.
Activision corporate minds took over Bungie's creative minds... or they just don't care anymore about making a great game and they all want to bring us in to that derailed "10 years experience" train.
"We'll talk more about it later" as in, "we are figuring how much we'll charge for them", you know, being EA and all, I just don't expect anything positive for us at all.
Looks interesting but a bit simplistic with all that autotargetting, what's the point of putting enemies on high ground and far away if you'll just auto-lock-aim on them and keep the fire button pressed?
Still looks interesting though, good thing it's also coming to PC along with Scalebound, the other XB1 title I'm looking forward to!
I don't even care what critics say about this movie, I'm waiting for it to release in my country to go and see it anyways.
From the moment they start their descriptions with some form of the "adapatation of popular MMO World of Warcraft" quote you just know they have no idea what they are talking about, for the gazzilionth time, this is an adaptation of the whole Warcraft lore, and more akin to the RTS than the MMO if anything else.
In any event, I'm pretty sure they'll recoup productions costs once it launches overseas.
I'm cool with them delaying the game to be able to polish it properly, what I'm not cool with is this trending behavior of announcing games for a date and then just delay them with PR statements of "we're making it as best as possible".
I'd rather them just announce they are working on the game and then post an actual release date/window that is not moved like this.
Still weary of EAware, but Mass Effect is just such good universe that I can't just bring myself to ignore it for good, learned my lesson tho, not gonna buy until release and reviews are in place, one could think they can't pull anything crappier than the RGB ending but you never know :P
@Prats1993: I was hoping someone would mention this, this thing runs as crappy as Duscae, I was considering getting this on release but I'll wait to see review, don't wanna play a pretty looking game that transforms into a slideshow as soon as you move around a little.
