Support NeoGAF

[molnizzle]

"Clans are coming into the game" is the most ridiculous comment for a pseudo MMO.

But still glad to see it. lol

 

[dh4niel]

Environments look great but every else looks meh. I look forward to being blown away by whatever they show next though.

This audience will hoot at anything.

 

[fargofallout]

Graphically underwhelming. In for the PC version though. Looks interesting so far, do you need to play the first one to fully grasp the story?

Hahahahahahaha. "Story." Hahahahahahahaha.

 

[Ethical Hedonism]

It doesn't look dated at all for me but it didn't look like an objectively great step up from D1 either, aside from the dynamic lightning.
It's better tho.

 

[Drencrom]

All I hear is a bunch of promises they didn't keep with Destiny 1 lol

 

[Dez_]

This looks pretty fantastic.

 

[LiK]

Real clan support? Finally.

 

[Bunta]

Oh hey, real clans.

 

[ZeoVGM]

She sounds really sad.
Maybe she is let down about the reveal as well.

Considering most people aren't, that's a cute little troll.

 

[ornery]

GAF CLAN UP

BODY READY

 

[maxiell]

Feels like this is one team and Jason Jones is on Destiny 3. I wonder if they're annoyed at the contract they signed.

 

[- J - D -]

Show don't tell, show don't tell.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Clans. IN GAME! Boom.

 

[TatteredHat]

This shouldn't be worthy of praise, in reality.

 

[Xando]

Nice to see them stealing the good stuff from WoW (Guild rewards)

 

[Kinyou]

It doesn't look 30fps better than Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.

Question is how large the areas will be in comparison, but yeah so far 30 fps is a bummer

 

[Aikidoka]

So the dungeons are new? Sounds like it could be pretty good, I wonder if you can just stumble upon them or if you need an NPC to mark your map.

 

[serenewarfare]

Clan stuff sounds good.

Uhh wasn't clans in the first game?

It was only on the Bungie website. Now it can be managed and used in-game.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Oooh, clan rewards very much like Warframe.

 

[akileese]

Why is she about to cry? lol

Speaking in front of at/around 500,000 people including the internet is fucking terrifying. Doubly so when doing it live.

 

[FyreWulff]

Uhh wasn't clans in the first game?

they were pretty much bungie.net only and didn't really matter in game outside of a couple of achievements

 

[Danthrax]

Is she getting emotional?

For some reason, it seems so

It's just a multiplayer game, yeesh, it hasn't changed the world

 

[Siege.exe]

Clans??? Clans... Who care?

Me and my friends

 

[enzo_gt]

Goddamn that was the longest lead up to a feature reveal ever.

But, it's pretty clear now that Bungie is adding features that they had to cut corners on for Destiny 1. This is the fleshed out Destiny that they tried but didn't completely deliver last time. I can totally see Raid matchmaking coming soon.

 

[belvedere]

Love the art style, but man.

Activision - I'll pay for an unlocked framerate.

 

[InPlosion]

It is amusing to see bungie doing the exact same mistakes blizzard has done with wow, like clan/guild based progression+reward system.

 

[hydruxo]

If you think this looks like an expansion pack...lol

It's looking great. They're expanding on what everyone loved about the first game.

 

[thekiddfran]

This looks like an expansion...

You could say the exact same about every sequel.

Cop on guys.

Did ye really expect a sequel to be different? The gameplay in the first was perfect so no need to change it.

 

[Cornbread78]

In-game clans means I'll actually join one.

Truth


I just hope I can go back to doing Tuesday night speed runs through the raids with you all again!

 

[BreezyLimbo]

On the graphics bit, theres definitely better particle and lighting effects.

But they are reusing some animations, most apparent in some of the reloading and when the Sentinel/Dawnblaxe were swinging their shield and sword.

 

[Vanillalite]

Survival games are not graphical stunners and the performance on every single one of them is sketchy at best.

MMORPG's operate pretty differently, needing individual permanent server clusters that the game runs on. Destiny needs to be client based and allow players from all over to group up.

It's not just that. This game is fully real-time combat. There isn't any kind of the usual FFXIV or WoW like combat here.

 

[irrotational]

Clan rewards - intriguing!!

 

[Shito]

Meh, only game where I could tolerate such an emotional PR would be Destiny, really... anyone who participated in the GAF OTs and played or talked with Drizzay will probably understand...

 

[Salty Rice]

Hey look stuff that should have been in the first game.

Its really just a big expansion. Looks the same with more and new content.

 

[OléGunner]

Clan rewards!
Get to work DGaf.

 

[BleedOrange]

That Clan system with persistent unlocks is straight out of Halo 5

 

[Reckless Onion]

show new emotes god dammit

 

[Amibguous Cad]

Yeeeah better clan integration

 

[flkraven]

lol. Clans can now be managed in game

"WOOOOOOOOOOOO"

Yeah, this definitely looks like a big expansion...

 

[Izuna]

Already talking about toxic gamers

 

[RedAssedApe]

All I hear is a bunch of promises they didn't keep with Destiny 1 lol

that's whats funny.

big pops for everything...wait that wasn't in the first game? lol

disclaimer: only played vanilla

 

[Soul Lab]

WUUHUUU!!
pls shut up lol

 

[miller.skippins]

I hate to say this guys....but many of these new 'features' were already in games like warframe since 2014.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Guys, public speaking to a large crowd is tough. She's super nervous and excited.

 

[Darryl M R]

Wow Bungie acknowledging toxicity as a whole in gaming. Amazing!

 

[Trickster]

Me and my friends

And pretty much everyone who thought that having to use third party places like destiny gaf was not exactly ideal

 

[Nabbis]

Finally a basic thing is added to Destiny!

This is my take from this game to be honest. It's basically Destiny 1 while that other thing was just some random crap glued together.

 

[shem935]

It is amusing to see bungie doing the exact same mistakes blizzard has done with wow, like clan/guild based progression+reward system.

Could people elaborate on their posts at all? Hot takes with no context are annoying.

 

[geordiemp]

The way they're talking about this is just infuriating. It seems like they're content to just iterate on Destiny, but Destiny was not good. There was a ton of downtime. "Grinding" was a huge part of the game. The moment-to-moment gameplay wasn't that good. There just wasn't enough content.

"A new raid"
"Updates to crucible"
"A 3-stage boss"

Incremental improvements aren't going to be enough for me :-\

But I bet you will play Mario Kart 21 same old and not wimper a thing.

Whatever man

 

[realwords]

Is she getting emotional?

Public speaking isn't particularly easy.
