Destiny will "scale" to lower and higher powered consoles

[quote]“It’s by design multi-platform – it’s highly multi-threaded, scales very well to the current generation and the future gen of hardware”[/quote]-Hao Chen, Senior Graphics Architect. I'm guessing this means the world of Destiny will be almost the same between consoles, just that texture resolution and particles (and the works) will be lowered for current gen consoles, while the next gen consoles will get the shiny stuff. Could this mean cross-platform between 360-720 and PS3-PS4 is possible?

  • I'm sure the current-gen consoles will suffer more than just graphical differences. The game engine probably runs smoother on next-gen systems, and the next-gen system's architectures will probably make it easier to handle large worlds populated with lots of people. The differences won't be oblivious and game-breaking, but they'll definitely be noticed by next-gen players watching the game being played on current-gen systems.
