So apparently there are only 2 modes for PvP for D2. Quick and Competitive.

Quick has control clash wtc.

Competitive has countdown and... elim? Seems odd

Makes sense to me. Countdown is basically Counterstrike and elimination was used for Trials.

Is a mistery what they will talk about there.

Maybe they will promise no mouse acceleration for PC players (because PC players apparently hate that) only to find in august that the game have mouse acceleration (like most console games).

I don't think they will talk about the XIM. Maybe theres a VR mission to justify a VR silver bullet in somebody list. I... got... nothing.

Mouse acceleration that cannot be turned off.

Feels kind of average, like an expansion pack. Also, for some reason, the Scout rifle feels very weak in PvE. It's an odd feeling.

I didn't enter Destiny until Taken King and maybe I'll do the same here.

So what exactly would make this a full game and not an expansion.

Ape Agitator posted:

I was thinking the concept of abandoning the old consoles might mean we would have a bit of an expanded game. I mean, I don't know what that might mean, but I was thinking some kind of expansion on what they would have presented. Like maybe a larger melee during the attack or something. Or faces.

I can't say what I was hoping for but just that I wouldn't think I was seeing Destiny's third expansion.

Bear in mind that I'm not the person they need to impress. I jumped in at Taken King and skipped Rise of Iron so I was most likely going to be a late adopter. That might have changed if seeing the accumulation of Destiny's 2-ness combined with whatever niceness had been added with Rise of Iron felt like enough to feel like a sequel.

It might just be that I'll be the kind of player that feels best jumping in at Destiny 1.5 and then going to Destiny 2.5. So bring on Destiny 2: The Takening!

So you have no idea what you want.

Normal brain: release a demo/press materials that's representative of your final product to build hype

Universe Brain: release a demo that's NOT representative of your final product so you can point out all the ways the final product will be better

That's great, but that's not the reality of game development. They have to have a build ready to pass console certification.

Yeah let me give the definitive ABGD Take here:

The game will in all likelihood be pretty fun and there's a core group of people and mechanics that will keep it that way.

But pretty much every dramatic change they've made to the game has been completely underwhelming and kinda the opposite of what I've wanted to see.

Add to this that they haven't really shown off that much and my hype levels are basically non existent. They haven't done a very good job so far.

When their two biggest pitches have been "guys the beta isn't the FINAL product" and "we have some really good ideas, but we don't have time to put them in before release," I think it makes sense to get off the hype train a bit.

This is Bungie we're talking about here. They never have enough time for their games.

I love the new public events in this game. The first one I did was the Heroic Walker Tank event. After you get the rocket launchers, another Walker Tank shows up. Two tanks and a ton of adds is good time with rockets.
