The Multi-Million Dollar Question: PvE vs. PvP

PvE

8756

PvP

1220

Please just take a minute or less of your time to participate. What is more important to you in destiny? 50/50 there are no wrong answers here! [b]Update 11/13/14 3:20EST:[/b] Over 8,000 community members have taken part in this poll and here are the results so far! [u]PvE:[/u] 8428 [u]PvP:[/u] 1174 Personally I am a big fan of PvP, but like many others I bought this game for the 'epic' storytelling and co op PvE it was advertised for. Knowing Bungie I expected a lot more from PvP in this game and currently it's just not a go to for competitive multiplayer, but I hope to see improvement in the future. I understand that many people on these forums are PvE players but there seems to be overwhelming demand for new PvE content and I hope to see a weekly update detailing the future of PvE sometime soon so we can all grind happily knowing it will pay off. To those of you who wanted to know where the 'both' option was I intended this to be a black and white question with no neutral answer, that's why the question stated what's [b]most[/b] important. If you didn't vote that's okay 8,000 other people did. This was my first post on these forums and i am very satisfied with the response, as a community we all need to keep up the constructive feedback on our ends and help the devs create a masterpiece!

  • PvE should house the main forefront of the content and be the focus, as this is an RPGMMO like game. It show be immersive and diverse with the story and gear and selection options available to players. PvP should be there just to show off the cool gear you have. But separately balanced from PvE.

  • Honestly I fear that Destiny is destined to fail. Personally I expected more of a story, what did we get? Honestly, nothing! Not even roam space, omg something so simple as roam space, how could they mess that up? Any game, or at least most games have a fair amount of roam space, areas to explore and interactive Ai characters to get information from. I honestly have no clue where they spent the $500 mil, do you? I have been reading article after article at how poorly Destiny is now being reviewed since release, go on you tube and see how many gamer's are furious. Do they honestly think we are going to spend an additional $35.00 or $60.00 on what??? I've spent less on way better games. I mean didn't they do their research, didn't they have a clue as to what we wanted? I am in utter shock at what they sold us, when you look at the price tag of the Destiny project. I wrote Bungie and told them how disappointed I am, not that it will do much good, but I felt compelled to. there are only 2 qualities I can say Destiny has, graphics are great and smooth and tight movements, but that's it. Same patrol missions over and over and over again, ok same mission but on HELL mode, ok then and what does that get you? On top of the lack of story, lack of community activities, lack of in game characters, lack of social interactions with other gamers and really nothing to do other than crucible, unless you want to do the same missions and patrols over and over and over again!!! Grinding for gear that you get randomly anyhow or gear only used in crucible,. I mean where's the other planets, why is there only a few place son the planets we have now that we can explore, what about earth?? What happened to the stranger, who is she, what about the queen, I mean really what the heck is this slop job story!!!! I was so hyped for this game and now I am so disappointed, I want it to be a great game but that is truly doubtful at this point because that would mean someone messed up and would have to own up to that mistake. A 4, 5 year project and $500. mil and this is what they give us !!! Are you kidding me, everyone should be upset and it baffles me with those who are trying to defend Bungie. This isn't an RPG or a MMO - so what it is? I know all of you who have been playing have seen all the locked content out there, why is it locked? We paid good money for this game, why??? If the game wasn't ready then they should have been honest and told us it's not ready, I would have rather have waited and got the game we should have gotten - rather than this. Until they unlock what we should have gotten, I have no intention of paying another penny and sadly I am afraid I will be taking my copy to Gamestop and trading it in. That is what these forums are also for, to let Bungie know how we feel, otherwise they will have no intention of making it better and will continue to milk us for as much money as possible. It is shameful they released Destiny as it is now. Oh and they promise dus we could be unique, kept hearing that over and over again - yeah right. The customization is a freaking joke, why the sparrows and ships, why have so many varieties? Also the lack of in game explanation is pathetic and all the error codes, waiting to connect to Destiny servers and then blaming the game consoles network and each time they did I triple checked my network and it was fine. Also how about in the middle of doing a strike or a patrol and you are booted out with an error code telling you to go to bungie.help.net, that on top of all the other issues. Sadly Bungie hasn't even admitted to any of this or has made a statement about how upset people are with the lack of content and story. I mean come on really, all the games out there we have all played, and Bungie thought "oh heck they won't notice". Really? I've played better games with more story content for a fraction of the cost. I log on from time to time to see if they have opened something, but you know what I wouldn't even know that because they don't even bother to tell you or explain in game. What's the point in having a message box in game if Bungie won't even use it to send us a note about upcoming events or maybe even unlocking areas they have locked down. I'm sad to say this because I had so much hope for this game, but unless they unlock areas at no charge to what we the gamers have already paid then I can only see failure for Destiny and I know I am not alone in my feelings. Any of you, head over to gamestop or where ever you buy your games and I bet you can pick up a $10 or $ 20 dollar game that is better than this, it may not have super graphics but you can actually play the freaking game. What they sold us is not justified, sorry and if you think so then good on you. Again, the point to these forums is to resolve issues and well, this is a serious issue. I understand that many of you have already paid for the expansion pack I truly feel for you and I hope for your sake it is worth it in your eyes, but as for me - it isn't enough and they should have known better. They should have known the end results of this, but they were probably hoping enough kids would get into it, not sure what they did with the rest of the $450. mil cause form what I see, there's no way it cost $500. mil to make this game!!!

      I don't mean to sound rude or mean to come off as a jacka**, but you all do have to understand that this game is still new. It will be worked on for 10years. I understand allot of you have your doubts as do I but why count Destiny out now? I am sure that Bungie can turn things around. Don't count out the underdog yet. Also, its the fact that Activision is behind all of this thats just my opinion but no one has the right to be mad at Bungie. Its there game they have a right to hear us out yes but they don't actually have to do as we want or ask of them. Everyone should just relax and lets see how Bungie plays this out. I am excited for the expansion packs even if I haven't gotten mine yet (to poor) but anywho I am excited as can be because I personally like the PvP and PvE of Destiny. Yeah, some things could be tweaked but you don't gotta insult them just tell them like everyone else, send a letter or comment on there forums.

    • If Bungie were our parents, and us its children, and they promised us a Happy and Safe childhood, As where the Happy/Safe childhood was represented by the quality and promises of Destiny, they'd be arrested and charged with neglect amongst other things.

    • It is a very difficult thing to judge. Although pvp is a very fun experience, It cannot provide the sustained enjoyment that pve does. Not to mention PvE makes you feel like a true badass. There's nothing like connecting a headshot on a fallen vandal and send him reeling backwards. Self satisfaction is certainly more prominent within PvE. Don't get me wrong though, sometimes PvP is the only thing that may satisfy my craving for destruction. The chaos and mayhem in PvP is great. It's a tough call, but PvE is much more fun, rewarding, in addition to yielding tangible results.

    • I agree with the community on PvE. I will never forget the countless enemies when the occasional Super waves on planet battlefields. And I also enjoy spending countless hours with my group. But I also don't mind getting my hands dirty with pvp and owning 12 year olds. Always fun. I hope that in the up coming DLC they will focus mainly on PvE. I voted PvE.

    • I have to go with PVE. FPS are everywhere and they have been done better, but quality coop games are in short supply.

      • No matter what PVE content runs out eventually but a strong PVP experience can be eternal. Sadly Destiny does not offer that level of PVP. If I had 2 wishes for Destiny it would be that it had a story and one balanced PVP playlist where everyone started with the same scout rifle, same secondary, heavies, and armor also no secondary ammo accept 2-3 minutes spawns.

      • PvE because you can chose what difficulty you want to play on instead of constantly getting pwned by level 26+.

          • I personally am NOT a big FPS player and only got this game because it was supposed to be an RPG/MMO. The Beta was the deciding factor, it was fun, aesthetics were good and there was loot everywhere! I had never experienced an MMO and there were people everywhere in the patrol missions helping kill baddies. It was Fun! But I got to level 8 fast and unfortunately, there wasn't much more to the story missions one I bought the actual game. The mention of Jupiter missions drew me in and they're nowhere to be found. :( It DEFINITELY needs more PvE, RPG and MMO elements! We need more PvE content Bungie!!!

          • PvP keeps people entertained until they get 1shot by a shotgun for the third time (usually in the span of 2 minutes) Or till they get killed by the 2nd person who uses their super just on them. People leave Crucible games so much. Me? I prefer to AFK if the game is going bad, while watching anime or something, moving my controller every so often so i dont get kicked. Did this 5 minutes ago and got Patience and Time.
