This is how Destiny Should've been!!!
Put aside all the other flaws in Destiny for one moment...
And
Picture
This:
[b]Earth is the only playable area[/b]
"That's Crazy!!!"
[i]Shut up and Hear me out.[/i]
Imagine, for a second, if Bungie hadn't spent any time working on other planets and instead just focused on building one large, explorable, and open-worlded Earth.
Picture a (slightly) smaller version of the map on Skyrim, just all future-y and space age. Caves and Rooms that have more reason to explore than for the occasional chest. This would solve 70% of the problems I have with this game.
Each DLC would just be the next planet, each one much larger than they are currently.
Thoughts? Comments? Death Threats?
Let's hear em.

1 ReplyWhat I find strange is that Venus will burn the crap out of you if you were on there right now, but in destiny its a dense jungle??????????!!
-
7 RepliesThat's what I thought earlier, but then I also thought that there would have been even less of a story than what we've got The only way they could have done it is to create loads of content to flesh out Earth, then create an epic last mission (not the strike with Sepiks prime) then leave it on a big cliff hanger What we got was a robot lady that looked a little like a cheese grater, and the vex worshiping a giant blob of shit
-
That would be really cool.
-
"Death threats" lol
-
TOTES MA GOTES!!!!!! Old Chicago, the Cosmodrome, ruin of Japan, deserts, it would be awesome! Then it would go moon dlc, venus dlc, and mars dlc. It would be very attractive to more people looking to new awesome planets.

Destiny's problems aren't in the size of the maps, it's the number of them and the variety of them. The game simply launched with too few maps; Earth in particular should have had at least one more totally different location (Old Chicago, for instance) and it needed an Old World urban environment somewhere - Earth, Venus, somewhere - with sprawling buildings and streets, interiors, et cetera. Ishtar Academy flirts passably with urban environments, but clearly most of the place fell into a Venusian sea, eroded away into distant memory. So even if the areas in The Dark Below that are going to be unlocked in Old Russia had been in from the start, and whatever half-assed unlock garbage Bungie is pulling with The House of Wolves, it wouldn't matter how much mileage that would add to the game; what the game needed was more environments, period.

Skyrim was huge but that would be epic
-
I really like this idea here, I feel like you could be onto something for a great game, I mean, look at skyrim, im still running around as the dragonborn, alas it is too late for this game, but who knows, maybe with this destiny 2 coming whenever, they might possibly do that, never do, but great idea none the less
-
1 ReplyI wouldn't like this for the fact that only 2 types of enemies would be there, the vex and cabal wouldn't fit anywhere.
-
3 RepliesThat but all other planets that way too
-
3 RepliesBut then we wouldnt have ships... and we all know how useful those are, i mean what would we watch during our loading screen?
-
I could go for that.

8 RepliesImagine yourself being a game programmer? wait your not? in order to make a comment on things other people do, you yourself should be able to do what you are saying.

This wouldnt work with the devs of Destiny. They are not Bethesda. So no story and also no exploring. If only earth would have been developed by Bungie you would have still endless loading screens and boring repetitive missions while still missing any kind of story. Although perhaps you would get more "amazing" discoveries from dinklebot while you have to defend wave after wave. yawn.
-
1 ReplyI thought this game was going to be a future skyrim, way off unfortunately.
-
It's sad, anyone who has played a Bethesda game (or everyone?) will be disappointed in Destiny. Where can you go in a Bethesda map? Wherever your determination takes you! Where can you go in Destiny? Maybe 5 ft a away from the nearest road. Otherwise it's all invisible walls and kill walls. Shoot there are poorly designed invisible walls INSIDE the playable boundaries. . .
-
1 ReplyI thought earth and the moon as the base game with introducing the vex. Provided that earth and moon had a full story line not this hacked up garbage we got. Would have given as OP stated more explanation more roaming etc... Vex and Venus as expansion Cabal and mars as expansion
-
2 RepliesIf I remember skyrims map was actually very small but seeing how much money bungie used to make destiny they could of made it 2xs as big as skyrim.
-
Good idea, but would totally change the type of game destiny is. I would love to see this in a different game though.
-
(Insert death threat here) Seriously though, it SHOULD have been skyrim-y on all currently available planets. Vendors, quests, etc on all planets. Not to mention lots of exploration. I mean, that technically is what we were promised. Not that im complaining...
-
Yes, just make events before DLC and put some escuses for invade a new planet in our solar sistem
-
I'm going to kill you!!!!
-
1 ReplyHow about they just keep in all the 'destinations', include the Reef (damn you Bungie!) and turn it into a full-blown MMO? Create bigger worlds, find a way to make non-legendary/exotic/raid gear last longer than 15 minutes by allowing us to upgrade them to higher-tier armor, put back in that trading system they took out, allow custom shaders etc. Oh yh, a story would be nice too.
-
Yeah! Because if you think about it, Venus is a more alien like version of the amazon rainforest ish. Mars is just a random desert. The moon is.. You get the picture, all of these are just Eco systems that can be found on earth with an alien twist and a few space pods!

17 RepliesThank god I'm from an age of people who appreciate games. How much effort people go to in creating maps, every inch of skyrim was impressive and actually, there were a tonne of Easter eggs and hidden missions I found whilst discovering the ins and outs of the map. You have done nothing but prove my point, you guys 'achieve' the same amount as me, but I enjoy it more. I think that's become quite plain
