Firebert posted:Even on an SSD it takes forever and you still get the 5 second pauses in the same spots in the middle of strikes, I have no idea what is wrong with the client lol it's the way the game's network infrastructure was designed and built, they went with the cheapest shittiest P2P systems possible, and so even on a PC with an NVME SSD going from a planet to space to another planet takes a horrendously long time if you're running around doing pve stuff it's pretty easy to spend half or more of your 'game playing' time staring at loading screens

I originally thought I would despise raids because people made it sound like the encounters were just 10 minutes of straight of solving a rubik's cube blindfolded where a nerd whines at anyone who doesn't do everything perfectly on the first try, which I suppose is sometimes true depending on the group, but those nerds are a gratefully small minority of the players in overchill. turns out raids are actually my favorite content in the game and an incredible feeling when you get them down, while a majority of the encounters have at least some margin for error that 1-2 players loving up doesn't necessarily doom you, or there's very simple jobs for some players to do while the more experienced players do the tougher parts, etc. they also have the best soundtracks and visuals in the game. raids are great.

I think a big problem with Destiny raids is that the kind of people who play Destiny are not the kind of people who are good at explaining things.

DaveKap posted:One of the few reasons why I'd rather Bungie moved on to Destiny 3 than keep trying to bolt poo poo onto the current product. Having picked up and quit Destiny 2 multiple times over its run, the amount of time spent loading between screens has been a major contributing factor each time I quit, usually right after logging in and having to run to the tower to do some errands before I'm ready to begin altering my loadout before eventually going on to grind out my daily tasks. I've played a lot more Overwatch than I otherwise would have, for example, simply because of how ridiculous slick and accessible getting into playing it is.

Doing raids with the SA discord is always chill and fun and they explain very, very well. When I go to LFGs on my own the difference in communication is obvious. I don't care how many times we've done it , certain stuff needs to be talked about or else we're gonna have a bad time.

has nothing to do with cheats, it’s just a horribly balanced game with terrible maps and a rotation that gets updated like once a year, terrible matchmaking, server problems that pretty much guarantee it’s impossible to play with a six stack because at least one player will inevitably drop during connection after waiting 3 minutes for everyone to load in, etc. if i could snap my fingers and get rid of pvp in destiny i’d do it in a heartbeat. at least they’d get out of the incredibly loving stupid balance hell they’ve found themselves in where they have to balance everything across two completely different modes because they refuse to have guns that work even slightly differently between pve and pvp

Yeah, the matchmaking sucks right now, but they rotate some gametypes every week, added new maps recently (at least new to me, i've only been playing since like November), and the "six stack" is rarely a problem. The biggest issue on that end is dillfucks dropping out after losing one round, or more often, completing whatever bounty they were working on. It's not nearly the best PvP around, but your characterization is ill-informed and gross.

I just wish they took away my ability to sprint in game and made everyone use the same load out with zero perks. Like what the gently caress is bungie even doing? It's like they're not even trying to enter into the competitive mlg world.

Mazerunner posted:some of you never beat halo on legendary and it's very noticable I beat all of them on legendary  It had much better enemy design and music than the D2 campaigns/nightfalls, fun vehicles, and it was still a painful slog Red bars one shotting you is dumb and tedious and bad, not a tough challenge. It’s the laziest possible way of doing so, just like every other aspect of GM nightfalls.

So wait, what is up with the Tommy’s Matchbook catalyst quest? Because Banshee has a quest to give it to me even though I’ve already finished the quest and completed the catalyst and I didn’t pick it up because I heard it was a bug that will restart your progress.

Panderfringe posted:I think a big problem with Destiny raids is that the kind of people who play Destiny are not the kind of people who are good at explaining things. All I can say for sure is that the experience of raiding is almost exclusively dictated by the quality of your raid leader and your crew. Good raid leaders that keep thing light and keep things focused and on track so you have a good time and you’re in and out in two hours are worth their weight in loving gold. The worst part of raiding with goons, without question, is that goons who really enjoy being read leaders seem to just like listening to themselves talk and absolutely delight in explaining and overexplaining and re-explaining every single mechanic of the fight whenever somebody makes a very obvious mistake, instead of just saying “hey what’s the problem? Do you need help? You got a question? Anyone wanna swap jobs with new guy?” It’s about respecting people’s time, something Destiny is already super bad at.

I love the overly long raid instructions because they just make things more confusing. My raid team was banging their heads against the Gauntlet until someone suggested a much simpler way to do it.

Haha I always thought people saying they enjoy the PvP were joking, I suppose it's serviceable but still, kinda surprised by that one. Warframe also had a subpar pvp but atleast that game doesn't strong arm me into playing it.

Different strokes and all, but I just cannot fathom why anyone would play this game's PvE for the sake of this game's PvE, rather than a necessary evil to get the gear & materials for PvP There are dedicated PvE games with good PvE!

As somebody who is generally bad at PVP in other games I do enjoy how D2 seems to do everything it can to help you feel like a good shot via 'headshot' zones that cover the entire upper chest at a distance, melee homing in like a guided missile, and supers that are generally a few free kills unless your timing is bad. I still hate it though because every single score-based mode just takes so god drat long. 150 points, 50 kills, whatever, matches just last too drat long.

I enjoy the Crucible and have the trophies to show for it, but let’s not go too far — the way PvP is done up in this game is pretty shonky. The netcode and tick rate is not up to par, resulting in a lot of late kills and trades. And the game has absolutely absurd amounts of aim assist, and multiple perks/mods to increase that to an even higher level. It’s fun but I don’t think it should be taken altogether too seriously, and neither should folks be denigrated for wanting to play the game modes they enjoy more instead.

I'd rather just play a PVP game where the devs actually made curated, balanced guns rather then throwing a million permutations in hoping balance works out on a cosmic scale. It's not to say I don't have fun with PVP in Destiny, but it's often a means to an end, and is not something I boot up because I want to play multiplayer FPS.

It’s really satisfying stomping across lines of panicking enemy soldiers, or hitting an enemy mech with a missile and seeing it blow the gently caress up. What I’m saying is, D2 needs Big Team Battle, with tanks and gunships and stuff. FFS there’s vehicle sections in the campaign, strikes, and patrols, but it’s yet another chunk of the game where they invented like 3 vehicles then abandoned the concept and never implemented or developed it further. I want to jump in a tank and do wheelies on a space god’s face

It’s really satisfying stomping across lines of panicking enemy soldiers, or hitting an enemy mech with a missile and seeing it blow the gently caress up. It's also really satisfying to play a sci-fi shooter that doesn't assume it's the only game a player ever plays, and has a nicely curated selection of weapons that never got out of style, and game modes that generally feel balanced and fun even if you're getting absolutely poo poo on. I can't count the number of Attrition matches I've played in Titanfall 2 that were fun the entire time...and still rewarded me for playing the game.
