Daviclond posted:While I love a custom solution, wouldn't a conventional gaming headset with virtual surround sound provide a better experience for a console? I'm not contesting that the sound quality of a pair of nice Sennheisers will better but I've read favourable reviews of headsets with virtual surround on Amazon, for whatever that is worth. It's probably not really going to matter at all. The tracker is going to be a more reliable way of knowing where enemies are in pretty much any situation.

Welp guys it was fun while it lasted. Unfortunately, monkeu and I have decided that the game is simply not innovative enough for anyone to play it in good conscience. Even though the game is a lot of fun, incredibly well-made/polished, and full of content, it's really just a cross between Borderlands and Halo. We'll be closing the thread and shutting down the Bungie.net group shortly.

But for real though, we actually have ~528 goons in the Bungie.net group and the game isn't even out yet.

Just so you guys know, Raid planning/scheduling is a feature that I am planning to add to destiny.sub.io based on what Bungie does/does not do at launch and what features such a tool needs. Considering that I already have all the authentication infrastructure set up it probably doesn't make sense for you guys to duplicate that effort. I welcome you guys to help figure out exactly what features that tool needs though, as well as how it would look.

This game probably has the best chance of any major release in recent memory of launching without a hitch. Of course, that is presuming that the underlying services (i.e. PSN and Xbox Live) don't go down.

Big Mean Jerk posted:I doubt it was intended to be an "in-universe" trailer. It's pretty obvious it was meant to reflect the social aspect of the game itself. Um, how were they supposed to be talking to their Ghost then? I think it's pretty obvious from the story of the game that since Guardians are resurrected people from history that there might be room for this to be not impossible in the universe of Destiny.

Brightman posted:Clearly the surprise is that there will be voice recognition that the Ghost responds to. That or the answer involves the suspension of disbelief as it is a freaking ad. I'd say 95% of the crazy poo poo that happens in any ad doesn't happen when experiencing the real thing. Except for trailers of movies I guess. I realize I went a little  there but, really, who says that everyone who is a resurrected futuristic killing machine would be super serious? I'm sure if the universe of Destiny was real a lot of guardians would treat it like a game. If you can't stop the overwhelming tide of galactic/universal evil, why not have a little fun before you die (again)?

monkeu posted:Also apparently this is a thing: http://www.destinyfragrance.com/ The whole deal between Bungie/Activision and Sony for this game is really clever, actually. Sony (presumably) gets exclusive advertising rights for the game and pays less than a true exclusivity deal would cost, but still associates PS4 as the platform of choice for Destiny. Bungie/Activision still get extra money, get to advertise their own game, and get to sell it to everyone anyway.

 The main SA Goons clans (for PS and Xbox) will be opened tonight around the same time that US copies unlock on PS4,since Eurogoons and Ausgoons will likely want to be in their respective groups anyway. whoknew fucked around with this message at 14:33 on Sep 8, 2014 |

Harlock posted:I wonder how slow leveling breaks down around 10 or so. Most of these review people are level 5 already. Unless the whole thing is super fast anyways. At the very least (and possibly further into the progression) you gain a level for every story mission you complete up til level 8. So it's not too surprising. It also seems that according to data that some people got from somewhere, there's 5 story chapters per planet, which means there's a total of 20. So maybe you gain a level per story chapter.
