I haven't even gone back to this since the first day. I want it be as fresh as possible on the 9th since we have to do everything over again.

sometimes it's hard to see if Meach is trolling or not.

It's not like he'll go "Sike nah I was trolling brehs, I'm not really a dumbass :heh:."

True. But the dead give away is that a Sony exclusive was part of the mix. Had that been an Xbox exclusive, he would've underdug it crystal clearly. But since it was the former rather than the latter, you know he straight Oddworld status.

I disagree...shyt like that adds variety and you use whatever fits your play style....not only that, it's not like the perks are limited or special to get....all the uncommon things in this beta have some kinda perk it seems, which makes choosing what you wanna use more fitting to your play style....

also, if anything has ruined the mp portion of games, it's the players always crying about 'balance'.....but that's another topic....

ok...you clearly don't give a fukk about fairness.....that's the problem with fans of these loadout/perk driven shooters nowadays...ever since
COD 4 introduced perks nikkas been accepting this nonsense....

I have no problem with ppl being allowed to play a certain way, that's fine....not everyone is aggressive or defensive minded in a match....however, when you're allowed to tweak your character so much that you're able to shoot faster than someone, your bullets do more damage, you can see further, run faster and longer....then each match goes from being labeled competitive multiplayer to "rock, paper scissors"...because that's essentially what it's become....guess what that guy in front of you has.....you actually enjoy not knowing wtf kind of armor, guns, attachments, perks your opponent has? one min your able to kill player A with 3-4 trigger presses then the next match it takes 10 to kill him......but that's fine...because he can choose whatever he wants...right? Destiny has 3 classes that look different from one another, so you can tell what kind of playstyle that player prefers based on how they look and what special he or she may have...but then it becomes retarded, because you don't know how far he/she can throw grenades....but that's cool...right?

are you fukkin kidding me nikka? players crying about balance are the reason why the majority of these multiplayer games are successful....it's also why COD has been changing perks over the years to be less game changing, less random or ridiculous as fukk throughout a match. You should thank us.

Look at Halo prior to Reach and Halo 4......everyone started a match with the same gun, same number of grenades (and the same throwing distance) and the same movement speed and jumping. However, throughout a match, if you want to blow shyt up...you can grab a rocket launcher...that everyone has a chance to grab....you want to snipe? there is one on the map that you have to fight over...just like the rockets.....these two weapons can be used offensively or defensively...aggressively or passively...you have that choice, without tweaking armor, attachments, perks etc. but you have to earn them...you aren't able to start a game with game changing weapons because you played for 20 hrs and unlocked shyt. also, you have powerups, camo and overshield....the camo is for offensive purposes, you're invisible and have a better chance of moving around or pushing your opponent...the OS provides you with extra layers of shield so you can stay alive longer......again, you have to earn these throughout a match because everyone else can grab it before you...this is the level of fairness I enjoy...this is the level of "playing how you want" that I truly enjoy....you start a match with the same shyt as everyone else and if you want better items you have to grab them once they spawn throughout a match....this way you know who has what and can plan accordingly....not this "everyone can start the game as a god" shyt that has plagued shooters for a while now....shyt is fukkin stupid and makes the game way too easy for players to dominate, it's why COD has been labeled EASY for years. nikkas starting a match with bullets that go through walls, while yours don't. nikkas having the ability to reload faster while you can't. nikkas calling in attack dogs or nukes while you're stuck with a UAV. But that's fine....everyone gets to play how they want.

@AkaDemiK just too old school with what he wants in all these shooters .

I guess I am...I absolutely hate this new era of EXP, perk and loadout based shooters. I fukkin hate it. I want to be able to go into a match knowing what everyone has and what's available to us on that map that we can use at our disposal. Lol @ spawning with a sniper or rocket launcher....I feel disgusted at a developer for thinking I want the game to be that easy.....nikka force me to think and adapt with every passing minute in a match based on where my opponent goes and what he or she is doing...don't just drop me in a game with all the goodies and let me mow ppl down left n right without breaking a sweat....

I'll definitely still be playing Halo...that's never gonna change....however I do like to play other shooters from time to time and it's bugs me out how all of them are so similar to each other with how they treat ranking up, unlocking shyt, weapons, perks etc...the title of the game might be different but how they treat players are essentially the same. It's like playing one long expansion pack since COD 4 dropped :beli:

However, these games when used in competition (BLOPS 2 league play) remove a lot of shyt and try to make them as fair as possible so hopefully Destiny will have a playlist at launch where all the "tweak so you wont get raped for playing terrible" shyt is removed...

But that's fine....everyone gets to play how they want.

how did you get I don't care about fairness cause I said I was cool with perks?...I can see if the perks were limited to certain things, but they not, they are available for everyone and are rather easy to get....

yea, all that shyt is cool cause that shyt you named isn't grossly outta range like you stating though...the 3 classes have there armor, agility, and the 3rd thing set....yea, you can tweak things depending on which upgrade you select for your character (not weapon), but they check/balance each other: you increase 1 thing, you decrease in another....I don't care what my opponent has...cause it's not what you have, it's how you use it...and so far, besides the natural things of the characters (agility, armor, whatever the 3rd thing is), no weapon nor clothing is giving people a boost like that....and just cause someone is using a certain class doesn't mean shyt...I've played with titan snipers and hunter rushers, which you would figure it'd be the other way....but again: it's not what you have, but how you use it...also, there is no I win weapon nor clothing in this game so far....even the specials cancel each other out.....

no, players crying about balance comes from ego in most cases, not to make games fair....people don't scream for it until they are getting beat by people they think they better than....'the other players must have an unfair advantage and something has to be outta balance'....in some cases, maybe; but in most cases, no....maybe that person just figured out the in/outs of the game better....in most cases them screaming for balance ruins games, cause they take the fun outta it by trying to make everything behave the same/do the same damage, and that shouldn't be the case.....so no, I wont thank yall....

so, you're saying you want everyone to be the same thing and have the same thing to be 'fair'? lol come on man, that's bullshyt...that defeats the purpose of different classes, upgrades, weapons, etc....cause as much as this is a fps, it's an rpg/mmo as well....if someone has earned something that you don't have, ok...suck that shyt up and go earn it....but don't bytch cause they putting in the time you not....

and yea, i'm cool with it as long as everyone gets to play how they want and not how the elitists think others should play.... in the end: the games are supposed to be fun...and it's not mine, yours, or anyone else's place to tell others how to have fun....if the majority are having fun and it's something I don't like, that's cool...
