The Beautiful World Of Destiny

I'm sure some of you have seen your fair share of Destiny E3 gameplay analyses.. Some being good, and some being dry. Hell, Bungie even released their own.. [b]But[/b] you have yet to see mine. I cover EVERYTHING that I could possibly see that would effect your guys' game. If there's a spec of dust that alludes to being some rare alien life form.. I will point it out and let you guys know what that is. So here take 1 minute or maybe 11 minutes and 51 seconds out of your time to dive in and take an in depth look at the beautiful world of Destiny. Be Brave my fellow Guardians.

  • After rewatching the E3 videos (again) I've seen examples of some things mentioned in interviews with Bungie, while others are only speculation. Some of these can be seen in your video, but I've put the timings in relation to the official [url=https://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Building-the-E3-Reveal/en-us/News/News?aid=10838]Destiny: Building the E3 Reveal video[/url] [b]From 0:20-0:50, in the left and lower frame, some of the new in-engine effects[/b] can be seen, namely the realtime ('caustic') reflections and movement in water (reflections of the hills and moment of small waves) and solar lighting, [i]presumably at an increased speed[/i]. Not much to discuss on this point, just a cool example of how great Destiny can be PRE ALPHA. [b]Watch from 4:00-5:05, 5:30-5:40, 6:15-6:25 and 9:30-9:40; evidence of real-time info of the upgrading of weapons [/b](possibly including melee @4:17 and Exotic Weapons @9:30). After defeating an enemy group, the weapon 'tabs' in the bottom left are highlighted, with point increases displayed next to a particular weapon. (@- 4:17, 5:03 ,5:35, 6:15, 9:36) Reloading the weapon does not have any effect on this display. This could be related to the 'glimmer' mechanic, or perhaps just a general increase to experience. It appears that the points relate to damage to enemies, bosses and loot. Any thoughts? [b]From 7:20-7:30, more realtime reflections of a giant fan, but not of the Guardians themselves. [/b] Maybe I need to improve my eyesight here, but here's hoping that character reflections make it into the finished game. [b]from 8:55-9:00:, a Fallen Captain has some kind of shielding. [/b] Whether this is a temporary 'power', or armour upgrade is speculation at this point. Still no idea on the 'Weapon Kits' though...
