Re: First Impressions: The Division Shows Promise on PS4, But There Are Worries

dgwdum

I hope this is nothing like destiny, the destiny end game meta is horrible. Everyone looks the same and uses the same guns or subclasses. This is especially true in the crucible (pvp) everyone uses mida, last word,hawksaw,etc to go along with the same sniper (1000 yard stare). Destiny has too little content and until the taken king the in game story was shameful.

The thing I like best about the division is that the dark zone feels the way destiny patrols should have. You feel nervous when going in because you don't know how it's going to turn out. Another great feature is "proximity chat" this should have been a feature in destiny and it would have made interacting with others and finding raid groups much more fun as opposed to going to an lfg.

So far I'm liking what the division has to offer but I do hope that end game gear is much more diverse than destiny's.

Re: Sony Investigating Online Issues as PSN Plunges into Darkness Again

@Midzark actually no. Microsoft has xbox, xb1 AND windows OS which is the most popular pc OS in the world, all running through their servers. The thing is that Microsoft just has 100x more servers than sony and it's not sony's fault really, Microsoft actually needs them. Still sony needs to step up their game.

Re: Loot Will Be More Likeable in Destiny's 1.02 Patch on PS4

@xMEADx I cant imagine how kids today would fare in 80s and 90s of gaming. Games like contra and out of this world are epic because of their difficulty.

I personally like the loot system. I think the people who don't aren't spending enough time in the crucible, that's where I've gotten much of my gear so far and I'm only 10 or so hour in.

I think people don't get that destiny at its core is meant to be a competitive PVP game with some RPG elements added meant to keep you occupied when you don't feel like going into the crucible.

No one replays the story on battlefield or call of duty, all they do is play the multiplayer. Destiny has that great multiplayer but you can also do side missions and events.

Re: Destiny Servers Go Offline as the Group Who Took Down the PSN Strike Again

dgwdum

@WARDIE that's because Microsoft's server count is huge compare to sony's, so it's almost impossible to bring xbox live down. It's not sonys fault though since it would be absurd for them to have the same amount of servers just for the gaming division. MSFT actually needs that much servers because of all their software products, mainly the windows operating system.

Re: Sony Lining Up Internet TV, TV, TV Launch for PlayStation 4

This feature is great for people who are cord cutters and don't want to be tied down to a cable provider(in the US)

If they can add sport channels (espn, fox1, nbatv, etc) I really think this can take off. especially if it's an "a la cart" service where you can pick and choose.

Re: Seize Your Moment with the PlayStation Now Open Beta

dgwdum

Why does anyone read or respond to the voodoo guy anyway? The guy hates sony(he himself stated so) and so he always tries to find anything negative on every article.
Not that I disagree with him on the ps now prices and he is entitled to his opinion, but it's hard to take anyone seriously when all they do is bring negativity into every conversation.

Re: A New Story Mission Is Taking You to the Moon in the Destiny Beta Tomorrow

dgwdum

@Davros79 I agree completely with this. Maybe it was because it was capture the flag and not death match but pvp is boring to me. Maybe I'm used to playing 32v32 on bf4 or the huge maps on planetside also. Idk

I really enjoyed the CoOp missions though, especially when a random boss appears. All the random caves and hidden tunnels are great ways to find great equipment as well. I'm definitely keeping my pre order but not for the pvp.

@Slapshot
