Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

Since im buying this on PC if its purchased at all, im rather content with it coming out maybe a week or month later. That way if the content is as paper thin as the base game(still an expansion in my eyes) i can just ignore it all together. It wont take but a day for people to chime in on it there is just 5 hours of missions and rinse repeat all over again.

I am still trying to decide what to buy this on. On one hand, playing it on a PC would not only look better graphically, but Mouse+keyboard play would be fun in this type of game. On the other-hand, as others have mentioned, I am hesitant due to the potential of cheaters (aimbots and other cheats are getting very sophisticated) and I like to sit back in my recliner and play.

Decisions, decisions...

PS4, it's what all the cool kids are using

No idea why cross-save isn't a thing for Destiny, we have mobile / pc apps which allow you alter a characters inventory.... ya think it would be easy to have a system that lets you load up you character on either console or pc. Microsoft should be pushing for Xbox<->PC cross-save hard. If they could get that, it would be an easy decision to buy on Xbox on release (if PC is months after).

Wonder if this will be one of the new "Buy it for Xbox, get it for PC, also!" games. That'd really help a brother out stuck between console groups and PC groups.

Nope, that's only for Xbox exclusives

It isn't. Middle-Earth: Shadows of War is a Play Anywhere title.

Edit: actually a few others too.

- Fallout Shelter
- Resident Evil 7
- Ark
- Spheroids
- Silence
- Riptide GP: Renegade

Those are all on/coming to PS4 I believe.

Xbox Play Anywhere | Xbox

Yeah you are right. I misread an article. All exclusives will be play anywhere, not all play anywhere being exclusives. I had it flipped

So have they commented on char customizations? i know you dont see under the hood much but unless we're all clones from 1 individual i think we should have some variation! I mean i want a beard and fro!

No dedicated server but they have said not P2P either... some new tech they are using

...new tech... jlawokay.gif

they use dedicated servers at 10 hz ticks for the physics engine and most player data, so it'll prevent people from doing standard cheats like infinite ammo, zapping around the map, changing character stat values, etc. P2P is used for second to second play, with the physics server serving as an overcheck at a less regular tick.

how well it works will be determined at beta/launch. I think destiny uses something similar currently, but more 90% p2p and 10% physics servers. the advantage is that if you have a bunch of people in PVP games in the same city as you, the latency between everyone is going to be extremely low. The disadvantage is that if fewer people are playing, you get the brazilian pings which makes everything a shit show. The real advantage (to bungie, not players) is that they need a lot fewer servers at launch.
