The foundation is there, but it looks like they literally just reskinned the first one with some different environments.

So...serious question. How can you say "it has the foundation" and "some of the best mechanics out there" but then also bitch about the fact that the 2nd one will have a similar but just with new stories/modes? Why would you completely overhaul it?

It looks like the same game.

30FPS is the issue with that title. 30FPS on a shooter is BS.

And for the dipshits bitching about 30fps, play the fricking game on PC. The framerate will be uncapped.

They are using a mature engine on upgraded hardware from both consoles.

Graphically the game doesn't look to change much outside of some ambient occlusion and lighting effects. We should at less have the option to run at 60fps @ 1080 or 30fps @ 2160. Yes they are doing checkered board like every other console game to achieve 2160 but still seems like they could have pushed for a 60fps mode.

Any PVP players excited about D2? I am trying to be, but it really feels like they continue to take the fun out of that part of the game.

Bungie said that they would have had to dumb down their game to get it to 60fps on consoles.

You can believe them or not.

You have not been paying attention.

European dead zone is more than double the size of any planet from D1.

The story is supposed to be a big part D2. Almost too much IMO. I don't much care for story in multiplayer games.

There is a reported 80 plus PVE activities.

I enjoyed the PVP in the beta much more than the last version of Destiny pvp I played.

I just hope they don't neuter trials.

You and other TK folks will never know the pain of having to manually search planets for resources for hours. It wasn't really until Crota I think where they started really including those as rewards for activities.

I would complain about how the game was currently set up as far as how it tracked quests or how they would even list them, and all I ever heard was "IT'S WAY BETTER THAN IT USED TO BE"

Do strikes/story missions still take place in the same area as the patrols?

It is not confirmed yet as far as I know but I would imagine so. The start of each strike should be in a patrol. The strike in the beta seemed to be.


But don't ask the OP anything, he doesn't know what he is talking about.

Day 1 player who did pretty much everything there was to do in D1. Finished it all months ago. Stopped playing when I learned D2 is essentially nothing more than a hard reset inside a large game expansion.

I'm not putting that much work into a game again just so it can be dropped.

They're asking us to commit long term on the level of a true MMO like WoW and ESO with no true continuity.

I'm out.
