There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality.

Hello lovely PC gamers excited for Destiny 2!

I've requested that the console posters stick to their thread and I ask that you do the same. I don't want each of you warring like really factions across the forums. It's unsightly and unwarranted. I feel we can all get along and enjoy our respective versions of Destiny 2 :D

Thank you kindly, all!

Since the peasants aren't playing nice and sharing their thread, we'll have to form our own GoonSquad: :getin::getin:https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1r4sQvZx46tnr35soSE0U1xffQekv5YFQpSGLtqqvRNk/edit?usp=sharing:getin::getin:

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?

Everything changes, Pit.
Even gods.

Was waiting for the first game to hit PC for so long the second game did instead. I guess that works.

Played a little Destiny 1 on consoles but I just can't stand using a controller for a shooter so I abandoned it pretty quick. Looking forward to this a lot, hoping some friends who played 1 on consoles make the switch to PC.

Yeah, there are bootleg Chinese MMOs with dedicated servers. They have access to Blizzard knowledge and they're not going to take advantage of it for server infrastructure for their MMO? Boggles the mind.

Domine, Dirige Nos
I don't understand why they aren't doing dedicated servers? Do they really expect this game to not be profitable enough to justify them? Blizzard loving invented the schemes to dynamically scale server availability to demand for MMOs, ignoring that just makes no drat sense.

they're not actual improvements if you're just removing the unnecessary layers of obfuscation that shouldn't have been there to begin with, oh and why not just have some new layers of stupid poo poo while we're at it

that little bitch munchkin luke smith is so up his own rear end it's like we really sat around and thought about this "LFG" problem and wondered how we could put our own unique stamp on something that's been solved for 20+ years, and here it is! can't wait til destiny 3 gets rid of this stupid clan poo poo and I can just queue up without it being a pain in the rear end, only took 3 games to stumble upon the correct solution! what fuckin' geniuses!

this series is going to be 10 years of great art design wasted by the most amateur gameplay design retards I have ever seen.

no see they didn't figure it out for themselves through years of pain staking trial and error

like why not have a map renderer that takes 20 hours to load? let's try that for a game and see how it works.

dedicated servers in destiny 5 please be excited

Into the loving garbage it goes.

I wasn't thrilled about the delay and the possible second class treatment the port would be getting but this just clinches it.

It'll be fine, you just need to download the right drivers. The beta ones, but not the newest ones. You need the beta drivers from three versions ago.

This is by far the most confusing thing. If you're already using Blizzard's game client to handle your PC services, why not have the same dedicated servers used for LITERALLY ALL BLIZZARD GAMES
