Incredible... People have found optimisation issues of course. Thats ok if they fix them. As it is this pc version gets a hard pass due to the straight up lies promo wise. Also the utilisation(or lack of) is eveident in the OSD pics i posted. It runs well though. But standards ought to be better. Also the controller vs mouse balance is messed up. Controllers destroying mouse and keyboard right now. Quote Edited August 31, 2017 by Choze
drahkon Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Ah fuck...I'm in the mood for some Destiny. I told myself: Buy this when the complete edition is out in a year but I'm craving some solid shooting and looting Managed to get almost 120 hours of solo enjoyment from the last. This time I'm looking to join you guys from time to time. 1

At least, you will able to do raid with any clans who don't have enough players thank to the Guided Game system anytime. 1
drahkon Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 I need to check my money situation next week. Really want to get this, but not sure if I can afford it in September.
DriftKaiser Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Dunno if the Amazon code offer are ending soon but you can get 5 quids (£7 if you are a prime member) off VG5OFF35. Tesco are doing the same thing. I used VG10OFF75 on my Limited Edition copy to get it for £77 which is alot better than £89 tbh.
drahkon Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) Doesn't help me in Germany, though Think I'll just order the standard edition for 58€. Never used that place. Hope they deliver on release day. Edited August 31, 2017 by drahkon
Choze Posted August 31, 2017 Author Posted August 31, 2017 Its out quite soon. You might get a deal for the season pass later when new content starts to arrive?
Choze Posted August 31, 2017 Author Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) Apparently the pc version of the game is 'actively blocking' all multi threading on AMD cpu. But it recognises extra cores and threads on 'any' intel CPU in comparison. Absolutely scummy if this really is intentional. I wonder where the journalists and youtubers are? This is the first time I have come across a deliberate gimping of a brand of CPU for a game. Bear in mind the Ryzen is strong is strong at single thread so it saves it somewhat(60 fps is fine). Other AMD cpu do worse. This absolutely does not reflect typical cpu game benchmarks which are much closer fps wise. 100 fps difference was obviously the give-away. The author did mention that results were very difficult to pin down due to lack of any consistency on Ryzen. Hopefully its just a beta problem. But I will keep an eye on this for the PC release. edit: Definitely needs more testing etc. based on new info as well as final release. Hopefully not an issue. Edited August 31, 2017 by Choze clarification.
drahkon Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) Bought a 50€ prepaid card for 42€. Still had 13€ available on my PSN account. So I went digital. Seems like a good fit with a game that I'm likely to start almost every day Soooo...is there some midnight launch action planned? Edited August 31, 2017 by drahkon

I believe you are already a member of the N-E Destiny Clan. To complete, i believe you just need link your Companion profile to the clan. 2
Happenstance Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) I'll be playing Destiny 2 from the beginning this time so should be able to join you guys. Is there a link to the clan so I can join it? EDIT: I think I found it. I was searching for "N-Europe" and not "N Europe". Edited September 1, 2017 by Happenstance 1
Shorty Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Yeah they don't let you have a hyphen in the clan name much to my annoyance! 1
drahkon Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Pre-load is available on PS4. I have to say, I'm very excited now that I bought the game 1
DriftKaiser Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 You will able to play D2 at the midnight time in your local time. This mean anyone who ordered digital game will play it first XD

DriftKaiser Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Dunno if it's true or false but those Bright engrams (white one) are like an Overwatch lootbox and you can get it by leveling up and/or filling the XP bar and it will drop random stuffs like emotes, cosmetics, mods, gears and weapons which is much better than get 5 motes of light tbh. Spoiler Just found out my fave voidwalker exotic helmet aka Obsidian Mind are gone but Skull of Dire Ahamkara gained the OM perk alongside with its original "increase damage resistance during novabombing". If it's shaderable then I'll never take it off! Edited September 1, 2017 by DriftKaiser
Choze Posted September 1, 2017 Author Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) I have a physical pre order with all the physical goodies from Game. I got a packing notification today. Will come with the Cayde Bobble head thingy. Lets see. Hope I dont regret it lol. Edited September 1, 2017 by Choze
The Bard Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Are any KNEErs planning on playing this on the PC? I have literally one dude on my Battle.net friends list and that was from playing Starcraft 2, seven years ago. Need a posse to roll wiv.
Nolan Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 I haven't turned my PC on in over a year, soooo it's unlikely.
drahkon Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Started to catch up on Destiny's story and lore because I didn't care for it when I played the game. Getting more and more hyped. 2
DriftKaiser Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Feel free to check the http://www.ishtar-collective.net for the D1 lores from the dead ghosts and other stuffs you haven't found in the game. Reddit got a thread where someone copied the entire new Cabal lores from the Collection Edition book atm.
drahkon Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 I don't think I'll invest this much...just going to watch a video explaining the timeline and lore and read a summary. 1
