This is gonna get me back into Destiny. I love the crucible but I don’t wanna play 30fps competitive MP
This is gonna get me back into Destiny. I love the crucible but I don’t wanna play 30fps competitive MP
I game shared it from a friend at launch and definitely enjoyed the PVE content but I couldn't get comfortable in the crucible because of it only being 30fps. I was messing around with the sensitivity trying to find the perfect setting and I couldn't. Plus, I watched some PC footage when that version came out a few months later and REALLY couldn't go back to playing after seeing how smooth the PC version was.More like actually introduce Destiny 2 to me. I deleted the game after installing it on PS4, just couldn't stand the 30fps gameplay/gunplay. Felt lousy so yeah can't wait for the 60fps update for PS5!
FYI, I ported over my game from my old PS4 Pro to my PS5 when I got the 5 at launch.
There are already much more improved load times(to and from orbit) are very quick now(my average is like 5-6 seconds).
Can't wait for the full 4k/60fps patch tomorrow, having the game on PC(Steam with cross-save) it was hard to play on the PS4 Pro(30fps)
after playing in native 4k/60fps plus on PC. It's so buttery smooth.
Now, we'll basically be getting the PC perks on home consoles(Series X/PS5). Gonna be awesome.
Should I wait to install it tomorrow or can I download the game now and update it when the next gen patch drops? I was really excited for this expansion, but it seems kind of a like a dud. Now I want to check out the patch and see if next gen version is worth playing.
As it says, same everything except rendering resolution.
PVP supports 120hz btw on Series X and Ps5. Gonna be fucking amazing
Let’s go!
crazy that you'll play on PS4 at 30fps against people who play at 120fps
Can't wait to do some Wrathborn hunts or strikes tomorrow, won't purchase Beyond Light twice tho.

do we know if the graphics will be equivalent to maxed out on PC? i have a 1080ti and can run max graphics at 4K on my pc (i9 processor too). so i'd imagine that xsx and ps5 can do it too. currently the aliasing on xsx (back compat version of course) is pretty bad. game looks so beautiful on pc at 4K/60.
edit: just went back and looked at DF's analysis of the xbox one x 4K upgrade back in 2017. basically, it was just resolution upgraded. so here's to hoping it's more than just frame rate on this one!
"But it's fair to say that the scope of the enhancements made to Destiny 2 are resolution-based alone - and if there are disappointments here, it comes from the fact that the established range of console settings remains on par with the base versions of the game in every way. Shadows retain the low resolution found in the original, and while view distances look fine, they clearly lag behind the richer PC release. Anti-aliasing remains the same too - it does the job, but adds a tiny amount of blur compared to PC at its best."
Did the same here, loadtimes are significantly improved, especially the mid level onesFYI, I ported over my game from my old PS4 Pro to my PS5 when I got the 5 at launch.

Yes, gonna dl the game directly to the PS5 SSD, like Warframe - unfortunately only the seasonal content is cross-platform...You’re not going to have to. You will probably have to redownload a new version for next gen consoles tho
EDIT: Just so everyone knows(I don't think many have picked up on this) Bungie is saying we have to re-download the entire game for Series X and PS5 to take advantage of next gen features(4k/60fps/120fps)
According to Bungie, the Series X and PS5 patch is native 4k.
Here's a really great article on what the patch contains along with other items of interest:
Destiny 2 PS5 and Xbox Series X Countdown: Start Time, Patch Notes, Server Downtime and New Features
yeah, saw that. which shows me resolution and framerate. so the game is already 4K on xbox one x. so are we to infer that the only upgrade (outside of "faster load times", which are there today) is going to be framerate boost? don't get me wrong, that alone will be great! just would be awesome to have maxed graphics/settings too. i mean, it's my understanding that the new systems are more than capable of doing this.
I haven't heard/read that there are any other actual visual/performance boosts outside the native 4k, higher framerates and improved loading times(that are supposed to be even quicker with the next gen patch btw)
Guess we'll have to wait for the breakdown of the patch from DF to see if Bungie was able to sneak anything else into it.
Thanks!Wait till tomorrow. The next gen "patch" requires a full reinstall.
Also, what makes you say it's a dud? The expansion is awesome if you're into Destiny. The game overall is just fun IMHO. The gunplay, movement, the different worlds, the social aspect, and now the fact the game is going to run in 60fps (120fps for PvP) makes Destiny one of the funnest shooters on the market.
I'm sure it is just fasterSo can we say goodbye to traveling into space loading screen ..
Thanks!
I have been day 1 on all the expansions, I just felt really burned by the seasons last year. So I love the world and the gameplay, but I feel like I spend every season grinding for new—and less interesting—gear.
Also, I’ve been hearing mixed reviews on reddit....but I should know better than to read reddit.
Have you been enjoying the expansion?

Doesn't it not come through a regular update on ps5? You need to redownload it don't you?I just checked on PS5 and I clicked on the "check for update" option and nothing. Don't think pre-load is live.
EDIT: Preload(must download the full game again) is supposed to be live 45 minutes from now at 12am Eastern(or your corresponding time zone).
