    Change may be in the air.

    Halo 5 for example. Gold isn't needed to play co-op campaign and 'all map pacs are free.' If that last bit is TRUE, then that means no more being kicked in the rear when a single player in an upcoming match does not have all the maps.

    So this sort of thing could set the bar for other publishers/devs to follow. Only time will tell.

    My brother played Destiny to death on his PS4, but stopped playing when Taken King came out. When I asked why he said he was fed up of the grind and something some Bungie or Activision exec said got his goat, which was along the lines of, "The new content
    shows the potential of Destiny." My bro couldn't square 'potential' with a year-old game. Just that one word pee'd him off. lol

    He did send me a link to this video too:
    The Point [clicky].
    But while the video was informative it wasn't anything new to me. I'd watched a mobile games panel at some games conference that Jim Sterling highlighted. It was bascially a bunch of guys talking about design elements that could reap
    the most money and keep people paying for more. That was Facebook and mobile games though.

    My view of Destiny from what little I've played on X1 and the 360 beta is... the gunplay is excellent, but I'm not huge on multiplayer. Something about guardians, spartans, and gears teabagging corpses ruins my immersion in games. That and I can't shake
    thinking I'm gaming with a bunch of nine year-olds. Singleplayer is my bag. That's the only reason Destiny isn't in my games list. If they released a stand alone, story-driven singleplayer thingy, I'd be all over it probs. =]

    Good news on the pre-order front in the UK, from April, in
    Metro [clicky]
    ... maybe we are learning as the years go by. I love that a 'crisis' for retailers is actually a good thing for consumers. Ha ha.

    Electro Ryse did that with DLC as long as one player has it, both can play it and earn the achievements that go with it, got to applaud that.

    Season passes can be great: if the game has DLC you want, you do usually save at least some money if you just get the season pass. I mean, a 50 $ season pass will most likely include DLC worth more than 50 $. Now, it's all up to what you'd buy, tho. A season
    pass including just a bunch of cars is not what I'd ever deem worth any money at all. A season pass including something more like actual expansions, like Fallout/TES DLCs, or more maps, weapons, vehicles & game modes (Battlefield) is something I'm willing
    to buy. Now, ofc, the pricing can be off. Paying 14.99 for two maps would never be ok if you ask me. Of course I'd hope that instead of just DLC the devs would always add all this stuff to the game to begin with but we all know that there's too much money
    to be made by selling all this stuff seperately so that ain't gonna happen.

  5. I feel like Destiny is getting us with a yearly subscription and it's just disguised as DLC which has been the flavour of this generation. They make it seem like a practice we are used to so the majority don't see to complain about it. I bet Destiny will
    have another $70 fee September 2016.

    Though you ask people like my brother about the practice and you know what he said to me? You should have seen WoW when it first released, he's already used to paying yearly for content in a MMO and he sees no issue with it because the benefit it came bring
    to the game.

    Personally, I was a little blown away when he said it to me, but I guess my point is that some see no issue with the practice.

  9. ^I heard a rumour that they believe they can make the current game last until 2017 which is what I'm basing my post off.

    If you don't think they'll milk the *** out of the current game, you're dreaming.

  10. Sorry to double post, I actually just read a little more information and I swear no one has a clue, haha. Apparently Destiny 2 is releasing in Sep 2016, but it might not be Destiny 2, it could be 2.0 and another update for the current game.

    In any case, I still feel like they will continue to update the current game and charge for it, that's my gut feeling and I'll stick with that, happy to be wrong, haha.

    I don't. know. but the. 10 years. deal between Activision and. Bungie was. originaly to. make. 4 Destiny. games +. 2. DLCs per. games.

    Since,it. got. delayed. (it. was. supposed. to. be. release. in 2013),the. story was. (badly). rewritten......but they can still release a sequel every two. years. they. got. enough time until. 2023.....Also one. day. they will stop supporting last gen
    systems. and. the. best. way. is. by. releasing a sequel (only. available. on. current. gen).instead of. saying to last. gen gamers,"sorry but. we won't support and update your version anymore".

    Hello everyone .00 season passes are awesome... :)

    ..........

    I sincerely doubt that Destiny 2 is going to be an entirely new game. It will most likely be a different version of what already exist with updates and stuff.

    ..........

    Also, in regards to the season pass in Destiny 2, I don't see Bungie / Activision changing their scheme of having the base game at $66.00 (taxes included) and the season pass at $44.00 (taxes included).

    However, what I do see is the difference in the amount of content that will be in the base game and the expansion DLCs from the season pass.

    I believe that Bunge / Activision have learned from their mistakes from Destiny 1 and will pack in more content in the base game and the expansion DLCs from the season pass.

    ..........

    Have a nice day or afternoon or night everyone .00 season passes are awesome... :)

    Direct quote from one of the Destiny regular players that I asked whether of not the Vanilla game was affected "The base game is very nerfed. I played with a friend that didn't have the dlc a while back and he could barely do anything. The game just
    feels like trash. With the dlc though, it's a better game."
    And he isn't the only source I have for this, a good friend on mine who I used to play Destiny with says the same thing., among others. So I think I will trust what they say. Good job on
    the double standards, az you were.

    I very rarely agree with anything Az has to say but most of his post I do agree with then I read this "That's why you're being sold pieces of the actual games instead of the full games themselves and it's getting really annoying now" from the bloke who champions
    Destiny as the best thing since sliced bread.....

    Many a time a used purchase has made me buy into a sequel or in the case of AC a franchise, bought every single game after I tried a used AC2, same with Bioshock and Dead Space. I was never going to buy any of the first games of those series new. Only
    decided to take punts when they were cheap enough. I think they all made enough subsequent new sales from the interest I gained to knock that argument out in my case anyway. Even if there's no sequel I may well buy a new game from the same developer if
    I like a used title I gambled on, shouldn't imagine I'm the only one.
