Bungie Games presents.....Destiny

[TheVileOne]

What class everyone going with in this one. I preferred the Warlock in the beta.

Titan with a bullet.

 

[TheVileOne]

PS4 has got some timed exclusive content for the game but as far as the running of the game goes I dont think we will know until Tuesday as the beta for the xbox one was not at full 1080p where as the final game is. How this will effect the frame rate is hard to tell yet.

It depends how much you are into the details of things I guess but I doubt there will be significant difference between the two that most people would even notice but I am sure some more tech minded peep's will argue differently and point out what one does the other doesnt. Just depends how deep you want to go I guess.

I got to be honest, all this controversy all the time about 1080p and full 60fps, etc. I could not give less of a crap.

I like nice HD graphics and all, but just give me a good, awesome game with good controls and smooth gameplay that doesn't glitch. That's all I really care about.

I can hardly notice the difference on my TV. I mean I've got a decent 32" HD flatscreen. But I doubt it can really show the difference between 1080p and not quite 1080p/60FPS whatever.

I'm going with Titan. always love the warrior/knight classes.

 

[eternalinferno]

Definitely starting as warlock but I'll be creating one of each class to play with.

100% agree

Yeah its nice when things look good and when you shell out more money you expect higher quality but when it comes to things that are so similar and any difference is negligible it just seems like splitting hairs to me. If your into that sort of thing, cool, but it just seems like a reason to start an argument to me and often does.

As long as your having fun you aint gonna worry about the smallest of details too much.

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

3A is going to be doing 1/6 figures of Destiny. Can't wait

Yeah, not too worried about the timed exclusive content, but how it runs is very important to me. Thank you for the info BlackFox.

I took my nephews to Ireland to visit their nan and there was a XBONE on display in a store. Got to feel the controller and it's damn nice. For me it wasn't so nice that I couldn't pick up a DS4 and feel bad but the thumbsticks are a lot better feeling

For me, even though I have a 360 and PS3, I played all my shooters on the the 360. When it comes to FPSs, the placement of the sticks is perfection for me. I played the Beta for Destiny on the PS4, and it just felt wrong to me.

yeah. me too.

in fact, I just cancelled my PS4 version preorder. I think getting an X1 + Destiny free + the Gamer's Club Unlocked membership free is just too good a deal to pass up.

Exactly my friend.

Do you know if you have to wait until Tuesday to pick it up with Destiny? I am a little worried they might run out of systems.

100% agree

I mean if I buy a game that runs at 1080p and 60fps, I mean does it even run that on my 1080p TV? What about some of these fancy expensive TV's that make my flatscreen look like crap? Wouldn't it look even better on that? So I mean...what are we really missing?

 

[Iceman]

yeah. me too.

What is Gamer's Club Unlocked membership?

 

[Benstamania]

If you get an Xbox One i would sign up for EA Access too. They just put NFS in the vault.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

When something's running at 60 fps it looks really nice, so I think it makes some sense to want stuff running at that speed. But ultimately it doesn't bother me that much.

 

[Iceman]

I care about resolution in particular because I play on a big TV or film projector but I don't believe most do, I'm sure many are just using ithe small differences to fight the console war. FPS is important for multiplayer, for singlepayer I'm happy with 30FPS and prefer other aspects to be maxed out.

 

[WildChild]

Warlock first,Titan second. Will probably make a hunter somewhere later on.

 

[Benstamania]

I prefer something to be 1080. That's just me and my 60" TV Talking. At this point 1080 p needs to be standard. I enjoy 60fps too but it's not AS big of a deal.

Anyway I'm rolling a Warlock, then Titan.. Then a Hunter sometime later.

What is Gamer's Club Unlocked membership?

https://my.bestbuy.com/gamers/benefits

The 20% discount on new games for 2 years sounds very enticing.

but, I'm going to call them and clarify a few things to find out if there are any restrictions, etc. and also make sure I can get the membership free AND the free game with the X1. or, if it's an either or deal.

 

[X Knight]

Exactly my friend.

Do you know if you have to wait until Tuesday to pick it up with Destiny? I am a little worried they might run out of systems.

well, I'm going to take my chances and get it Friday or Saturday ( yeah.....that's pushing it to the end of the sale.....lol ).

I'm a little worried they might run out of both the X1s and Destiny, but I think I should be ok.

I suppose if you're really worried, get it Tuesday or Wednesday.

And if you're asking do you have to wait till Tuesday before getting Destiny for free with the X1, then yes, it seems you do. the deal doesn't apply to preorders.

Yeah I noticed that. Tuesday it is then. Also, good luck.

thanks, you too!!

May the Force ( and Darth Vader's cute potential granddaughter ) be with you!!

Oh Best Buy, I guess this is a US only deal. Looks pretty good though.

Yeah good plan, a lot of these kind of offers have restrictions, especially when combined. Hope all works out for you with your purchase

yeah, it's a Best Buy deal, I'm not sure if they offer it in different countries.

and yeah, I just emailed BB to clarify about the membership, and I'll also call my local store, too.

as they say......if it sounds too good to be true........

oh, and you're not in the US?

for a game like Destiny, does that mean we can't play together in a match if we're not in the same country?? are there regional/geographical restrictions like that in MP games on Xbox Live?

I'm in UK. Once you're friends with someone you can pretty much play any game with them by invite and partying up. The people I play with most are mainly US based.

ah. ok.

glad to hear there's no regional/geographic restrictions when it comes to MP.

I could have sworn that I've heard of some games that did restrict you to only playing against/with people from your country or region.........
