This post just got me even more hyped than I already was to play this tonight! Stuck at work so it's going to be a long day of waiting lol.

 

How you like it graphically?

 

Destiny 2 doesn't have any genuine single player stuff anymore, it's all been ripped out, I mean Vaulted.

 

Going to play it later today, the steam version. The multiplayer is free which is the most valuable part of a game but ok. Campaign is 60 bucks.

 

Indeed, the days of shelling out 60 dollars or more for a singpleplayer only experience are over for me (except when a family member wants to play too etc). Most SP games i play through completely once and thats about it. MP titles last many many more hours.

 

Was there a break down of the last flight in terms of fps & resolutions?

Those zen2 CPU's won't get much work.

Hopefully this flight will go down just as well as the last one seemed to have.

 

Playing some bot matches so much fun. Grappling enemies and mele is really satisfying and guns feels so good. And graphically it looks very solid

 

Nice, it's like the grapple in Q2 Threewave CTF mod, except slower. But the unrestricted grapple points is the key here. Any game with a grappling hook that limits grapple locations to set locations is absolutely shite, IMO.

Looks good that if you wanted to be a grapple monkey and stay in the air through the duration of a map you can. However, unlike Threewave CTF, the slow speed means that anyone trying that will be instantly murdered. Although maybe it'll be hard for console controller people to hit them, but MKB players should eat grapple monkey's for lunch.

I wonder if that's something you'll be able adjust in custom MP maps? I'm assuming that if/when Forge arrives, that map makers will be able to adjust that. I'd be seriously hyped for MP maps that had Threewave CTF speed grapples.

Oh great! I've not even played it yet and there's yet another way for me to be totally outclassed.

 

I wonder if we'll have moments like this ever again in a new Halo?



Just one example of the crazy stuff you used to be able to do in Halo.

That was one thing I loved about classic Bungie, they loved their in game physics simulations. I still remember experimenting with their physics simulation in Myth: The Fallen Lords back in the 90's when BETA testing the game. Back when BETAs for games were actually BETAs.

Played some matchmaking last night against bots on my XBSX. After about 2 minutes of playing my wife took the controller from me lol. I know she liked it because she was shouting at the TV. Had to close the windows so the neighbors wouldn't hear . Not a knock on her because I have the same problem when I play Halo . Overall I thought it was really good and I can definitely see myself spending a lot of time on this game when it comes out. The grappling hook's a nice addition. It's very useful for traversing, chasing enemies, and it fits nicely in the game. The assault rifle was the most noticeable difference to me as far as weapons. It seems a lot more accurate/ powerful than previous AR's in Halo.
