[u][b]"Competitive" Multiplayer Trailer Discussion thread - No noobs pls[/b][/u] Okay so I find this unsettling. Very basic game modes. And missing KEY competitive features that ALL good FPS games have and should have. - No mention of ranked matches or an in game ranking system. - No hardcore mode (supers disabled, no radar, etc). - No custom games. - No local/LAN multiplayer for tournaments. YET THEY HAVE THE PURPLE BALLS TO CALL THIS [quote]COMPETITIVE[/quote]? Well Halo and CoD series say hi. The new multiplayer trailer for Halo 5 was amazing, especially the return to roots by disabling armor abilities and loadouts. And CoD is always the same, but with mech suits and lasers now? Hell yes. In comparison Destiny seems very limited and casual, a farcry of what we were promised from Bungie. What do you guys think? Do you care about pvp? Are you a competitive player? Will not having these key features affect your enjoyment, and possibly your decision to get Destiny?

  • I'm an incredibly competitive player. I want to win every game I play, and I want to be the best player on the battlefield. But I seem to be different than most other 'competitive' players. I don't care about a ranking system. I don't need incentive to drive me to play harder and become a better player. That drive is in my heart and I don't give one turd about ranks, game types, or any of that stuff every other 'competitive' complains about. I couldn't care less if I had a number that influences the way you feel about me. There will always be another level to reach, a new skill to acquire- and I'm not talking about rpg elements, I'm talking about personal goals and milestones I set for myself. I know when I hit them, and I'll always be driven to meet the next one. Loved Destiny's PvP, I felt incredibly competitive playing. When I got beat, I didn't complain about matchmaking, gun and power balance, whatever- I respawned and got back to killing them. I know who I am, and don't need a number to tell you- I'll let my weapon do that. If you beat me, I'll work harder, change the way I approach a battle, and push myself to be better next time. Doesn't matter where balance is at, I'll put myself at the end that gives me an edge. If that balance changes, I'll change with it. I want to win. I want to be the best. Maybe I'll never get there- maybe that's what keeps me coming back to a game an continuing to improve. I don't know why everyone is always labeling a game as competitive or not, based on numbers and modes and stuff. The competition is in us, and the game is just what we use to express it, based on that game's rules.
