No private matches or clan matches (Source included)
Destiny has no private matches at all. Proof provided by this youtube video above, go to 1:15:00 he says private matches aren't in the game and there aren't clan battles either.
This company would be literally stupid to not add this.
How will clans work without custom games?
How will friends play against eachother?
How will any tournament exist?
How will people train for matchmaking?
How will 1v1s be possible?
Honestly without custom games this game is pretty dead, there will be no competitive scene at all because there won't be any chances to prove it. I've played Halo for years to know that custom games are something I do every day and is very important. While this isn't Halo, it's important.
Desired custom game options: http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/68034408/0/0
Edit: Stop attacking a straw man and don't put words in my mouth based on what you assume. I bring up valid points. While you may not want a competitive scene in Destiny, it should be there. I don't think Bungie hired a competitive lead and said they would take steps towards making competitive gameplay for nothing. There is a ridiculous amount of narcissistic replies saying how they're thankful they don't have to deal with "competitive players" ruining their game. This is so pathetic.

In the very same video that you linked they talked about how most of this is temporary. Comparing it to the original Halo vs. Halo 3. They will eventually add clan battles and private matches. But they need to build up everything that's there first.

2 RepliesSome games don't ship with private matches, doesn't mean it can't happen later in an update :) it's not the end of the world guys lol

Edited by Snugle Wugle: 8/15/2014 6:40:35 PMKinda disappointed that private matches/custom games aren't possible. That was one of the best parts about Halo. Even if we can't change map and game settings (like in Halo), I still we need private matches to allow friends and clans to challenge each other.

The only thing that interests me would be clan battles. But clans are meant to be a way for players to create organized ways to co-operate and have fun. Not to establish dominance in an internet "i'm better than you" contest.
-
Doesn't bother me in the slightest. Same shit happened with titanfall. It will likely be available at some point after launch.

2 RepliesI'm not to concerned about 1v1 at the moment. I want to enjoy this as much as possible.

I normally don't indulge in negative conversations about an unreleased game, but I am pretty disappointed. Bungie has consistently talked about the evolution of their games and to not have some of these core elements when you have 500 employees seems a bit odd. I know the game is massive and there are tons of maps, guns and armor and all that. I also understand how complex their matchmaking system is and how much manpower that takes. But as of today we really have not seen the amount of objects and features to merit the "most ambitious game of 2014" quotes that have been floating around. Lastly, why in the world would you compare Destiny to a game released over a decade ago?!? I get his point, but they had the TINIEST fraction of staff and resources to create Halo:CE, so to say that they've just been building a huge base for the last 4 years with this budget and NOT have some of the features they perfected in Halo is beyond me. I just figured they were waiting to announce Custom Games, Forge and Theater modes at a later time, but if we are waiting another two years for those I will be severely bummed out.

Hope they patch it in early.

I think it's funny how Deej says people are going to ask you where you got your epic gear from. Lol Please elaborate on how people are going to "ask" these things other than through console UI? Another point is... He seems to suggest that in future installments, exp Destiny 2, they'll expand on game features but double down on core Gameplay for the first installment of Destiny. The game as it stands is already a massive success financially. There WILL be a Destiny 2, but I think as far as the core Gameplay, we won't see anything drastically changed aside from Dlc packs. Bungie's focusing on the thing that's never been done in an FPS (FPS+MMO) , which is essentially the core Gameplay Deej spoke of in the video. Basically Destiny is the beginning. Future destiny games will expand their feature set much further I'm sure, both in PvP and PvE. That's the way all series start and progress.

It's at 57 min from the linked video. Good find though and valid questions/concerns. JTS

This sucks, they better add in private matches.

Edited by Pheonix: 8/15/2014 5:47:24 PMI wouldn't be suprised if they added the feature post-launch like Titanfall.

Typically all XP bonuses, achievements are locked in Private matches. This is more meant for clan practice, clan events or ranked matches through several competitive gaming sites. Plus, stats are not carried over from this mode to prevent stat padding I prefer this method, so it dismisses boosting of any kind. As a leader of a clan, I am admin for PvE, but this will effect our PvP admin and PvP oriented clan members. This will prevent us from organizing PvP clan events against our own clan or to offer a ladder tournament within our clan or against others. It's disappointing to see that this isn't going to be an option at launch, however, I'm confident it will be available within the first 6 months of release. Though I'm primary geared toward PvE and organizing teams for clan raids, I don't think this is a good move by Bungie for this to be missing at launch, as this option is a key component to some of your competitive PvP gamers. If this was related to a key component to PvE, I would be as disappointed just as the PvP'ers are, especially given Bungies experience in the gaming industry. However, given Bungie's experience I'm sure there is a reason why it isn't implemented for release date. As I previous said, it's a game meant provide content and maintain a fan base for 10+ years, you'll see this option soon, just not at launch.

*sigh*..

2014 FPS game with online features and don't even have private matches. I'm sorry but this is absolutely ridiculous and laughable..

Don't be surprised if they add this in later as "an update". People of Titanfall will understand the same.
-
Not going to lie, this is pretty disappointing if true. I really enjoy participating in things like Community Carnage, but no private matches would make it very difficult to organize anything in PvP. I would hope that this can and will come as a patched-in feature early on, but not having it in the base game seems like a mistake.

4 RepliesThat is disappointing. No Clan Wars? We can play PVP as a Clan, but not against other clans? This game is confusing me.

Edited by Tyr-Thanatos: 8/15/2014 6:01:01 PM"Honestly without custom games this game is pretty dead"...it will only be dead to people who only want to play multiplayer. to the people that are looking forward to the other 4/5 of the game (story, strikes, side missions, raids) ,,they really don't care..so i don't think this game will be dead at all because of this. besides, i think people are freaking out for no reason..they said the game wont have it "at launch", they never said the game will never have it.

7 RepliesWell sorry to see all you "MLG Pro Gamer's" go but you know don't let the door hit you on the way out
-
It was be nice to be able to play non ranked games with and against friends. There's no good reason not to include this. Also, make it like halo 2 where groups get matched up against other groups. I'm sick of playing against clans with suck ass teammates.
-
7 RepliesSad you think a game needs MLG to actually be a good and fun game same on you people now a days only think a game is good if you can make money from it now I kinda hope they dnt just for this

3 RepliesPrior to Xbox Live, we all only had the ability to have LAN parties with original release of Halo: Combat Evolved for the original Xbox. These LAN parties became an epidemic across the country and really helped Bungie understand what their community wanted, thus spawning the competitive multiplayer that we saw in Halo 2. Custom games were a big part of this. Yes, this isn't Halo, but I think keeping a feature that was so integral to the success of their company from day 1 should have continued over to this new IP. They had a great vision with the original Halo:CE, they changed multiplayer to what it is today on console gaming and in my opinion, leaving this out is a mistake. Go watch: [url=http://http://youtu.be/OtG6--4r_qk]A Brave New World[/url], they discuss their history and you will see their discussion on LAN and custom gaming.
