I hope their will be more to this game than shooting mindless aliens
also can they have an otion to remove the health bars and all the MMO crap from the screen it kinda murders any immersion
Bungie i pretty good at making interesting aliens. Look at Halo. The Covenant , Forerunners, and flood were all done well. I doubt Destiny will be any different.
I get the feeling that we'll find out more about the aliens in missions beyond the beta (For those who don't know, the Beta imposes a level ceiling at 8 and only allows access to the Old Russia levels) I was actually just starting to get interested in the story when I hit the beta limits. Very frustrating. I find the Fallen intriguing, (That the lowest caste "Dregs" of their society gets their lower set of arms lopped off in a shaming ritual and their apparent subservience to those "Servitor" AI things interests me, but I want to know more, much more) I'd also like to know more about how Ghosts choose Guardians from the dead and resurrect them (And the story behind the Awoken), but that's the sort of thing I would expect from a accompanying novel honestly.
I downloaded the Beta over the weekend and had a blast with it. Don't go in expecting an RPG, but the character creator was quite satisfying. I maxed out a male Exo warlock within the Beta limits and started up a female Awoken hunter. I even amassed enough Glimmer to purchase a new ship for the warlock (Most expensive one available, purely cosmetic, but prettier than the rust bucket starting ship). Very few games(Especially shooters) actually manage to get me interested in the character advancement, but Destiny has managed it. It's not just better stats, advancement opens up interesting new abilities to make use of and experiment with. I even started experimenting with multiplayer, which I hardly ever do, and had fun. Sure, I died a lot, but I found myself getting better at it and having fun.
Destiny has my seal of approval so far.
Also, I've got two codes for PS4 if anyone want 'em
After having maxed out one of each class I am definately psyched for this game. it hits an incredibly satisfying sweetspot between a standard MMO and Halo, which I love. The lore seems interesting, I just wish we could get more of it in the beta. The combat feels good, the classes are sufficiently diverse to not feel like copies of each other, the enemy AI is actually fairly competent, and I had a ton of fun in both the Crucible and the Devils Lair. Didn't get a chance to try out the Iron Banner yet though.
And the visuals. Holy crap, those skyboxes are jawdropping. The areas are interesting. And the armor designs are spot on. Little sad about the low level Warlock Bonds compared to the Hunter Cloaks and Titan Marks, but the higher level ones seem really flashy.

well they should have good stories, they are not "monsters" they are ALIENS they think and feel and have space ships so they are not mindless animals

I've gotten that sense from the Fallen. (Less so from the Hive, but I haven''t gotten to see much of them yet)
I really hope they come out with a Destiny Novel actually, I loved most of the Halo books ("The Flood" and Karen Travis' Kilo Five trilogy not withstanding) for the deeper look into the lore of the Halo universe. Destiny looks primed for that sort of exploration.
I went on the internet with my Xbox One earlier to the Destiny website;watching all the videos in the media section got me a little more excited.
Still haven't preordered though, as I'm still trying to save money where I can.
It'd have to REALLY swing me around to get a purchase from me.
Fiery Phoenix is my lord and savior.
Anywho, I still may not be getting Destiny unless a friend offers to get it for me(can't believe I'm saying that but given a friend of mine bought me Titanfall and later will get me AC Unity because of financial reasons and desiring to co-op with me, who knows).
Destiny Beta on Xbox One, lets see what your size is...
12.63 GB
WAT THE WAT
I also have some codes, I'll get back to you when I get them from the site.
If anyone wants to add me to their fireteam feel free GT: Drone223
P.S also have some spare codes email me if anyone wants one (X1 only).

Apparently this is a bug with the game launcher - so if you leave it the game will still download and play as normal. I almost started again but saw that many people on the Bungie forums were saying to leave the game.
Played the first mission. I like the gameplay, will play more tomorrow. This game has imtrigued me alot now, most likely buying it.
Yep - I was running around messing about and an event popped up which I completed with two others - this game's going to be a ton of fun...
Started up this morning, just out of the CC, after the intro, now gotta start moving.
Diggin the CC. Would be nice with more options for face morphing, but I'm happy regardless. Went with a Female Awoken Hunter.
Fiery Phoenix is my lord and savior.
I put in a couple hours last night. Game is absolutely fantastic. Didn't expect to be so amazed by it. Here goes my female Titan:
She's killed over 100 Vandals and died... like 0 times. 
Will be playing the third and fourth story missions later today. I'm also tempted to roll another character, but I'll probably wait until my Titan is level capped.
Retour en haut
