Destiny is not an mmo. Destiny servers cannot handle massive content. I'd you want massive content, you better like cash shops or a monthly fee for the game to pay for servers and overhead.

  • But they already support 16 in those areas and enemies on top of that. I don't think it's as far a stretch as you seem to think.

  • Static mobs are not what causes extreme load on servers.

  • 2 extra guys though? Not sure about that. Take out mobs, public events, chest and farmable spawns, should be fine. Battles will be spread out enough.

  • Bungie has never done an mmo. You don't pay a monthly subscription fee and there is no cash shop. You don't need to be an expert to come to the conclusion that bungie does not have the servers to support game play involving 200+ users.

  • Again, we want 6v6, or 16v16, Not 200. But thanks for your input

  • You want bigger maps. There is a difference. What was described is already in the game. There is 6v6. There could be 8v8, but never 16v16 with the current server size.

  • Right, funny thing is we already have bigger maps already. But maybe you can't grasp that.

  • So what do you want? 8v8 is a possibility. Never anything larger than that. You are never going to get open world pvp, because this is not an MMO. So you already have larger maps, and you already have 6v6. You could request 8v8. But you are not going to get anything more without a subscription fee, cash shop, or both. Grasp reality.

  • Last I checked, Battlefield doesn't have subscription fees, and that 32vs32... You might want to start playing catch up on technology.

  • [quote]Last I checked, Battlefield doesn't have subscription fees, and that 32vs32... You might want to start playing catch up on technology.[/quote] It freaking blows my mind on how a 15 year old can post retarded opinions on the Internet unsupervised. Mag had 160 v 160 maps, planetside had larger battles before that. Don't talk to me about things you are ignorant to. Now go to bed! It's a school night.

  • Alright, but I also know Planetside has that in game store, but that's also free-to-play. So I'm really failing to see the connection between servers to allow PvP in larger areas, and subscription based fees. You see, we can go all day pointing out individual games that have subscription fees, and ones that don't. In fact, the only game I can think of that has a initial cost of $60 and also has a subscription tied to it, is ESO, and that deals with hundreds of players all connected to a "state of the art" Mega server. Now you do bring up some other interesting points. One, 15 is rather random, if you get that from my gamertag, then you are misguided. You see, 99Z was a joke MOS in my basic training that stood for Combat Ninja. So maybe you should not judge someone before making a random assumption. "Now go to bed! It's a school night." It's not even night time here. Another misguided assumption. Not everyone lives in Europe. (based on timezone difference, that's a reasonable assumption). In fact, where yes I do have school (I go to college), I also have work to attend in 3 hours. You see, I actually have a life outside of dealing with random bullshit that you say.

    Go to bed! You have no idea what you are talking about. Free to play mmos have cash shops to pay for the upkeep of their servers. Pay to play mmos use subscription fees to pay for servers. Hybrids charge a lower sub fee and subsidies the lower fee with a cash shop to pay for their servers... There is the connection. It boggles my mind on how a 15 year old can't make that connection. Before you go to bed, read something! I'll have a talk with your teachers tomorrow. And if your story is even remotely true (doubt it because you didn't understand that my demand for you to go to bed was just to be condescending and not a reference to time) you are a pog.

  • "Free to play mmos have cash shops to pay for the upkeep of their servers." Alright, what about there developmental costs. I'm sure there cash shops brought in enough to pay for both I assume. That or the servers aren't as expensive as you think they are. Pay to play MMO... Yeah, when you have hundreds of people in a game, it kinda demands better servers than lets say, 32? It boggles my mind how you think a server that supports hundreds of players is comparable to servers that support just over a couple dozen. and this is what I thought when I read this "you didn't understand that my demand for you to go to bed was just to be condescending and not a reference to time" Oh no, this guy called my bluff! Here's why. If you were to question my intelligence, which you are, going to bed is not going to make me more intelligent. If you meant to be condescending, you should have told me to go to school, or read a book, or literally just about anything else. I actually was a PoG, mainly because I actually passed my ASVAB (and by passed, I mean I scored 37 points higher than the minimum score to be a grunt). But hey, you must be a dependent of a service member, you don't know how to show respect to anyone.

  • Battlefield has cash shops. You are ignorant to gaming. Delete your account.

    OMG, whatever am I going to do, BF has cash shops, CoD has cash shops, GTA has cash shops, You figured it out, you have figured out how BF pays for it's enormous maps. The ten people that actually buy the shortcuts, fund all of Battlefield. Congratulations, it has nothing to do with paying $60 for the game $50 for premium. Way to go. Have you ever thought, maybe those cash shops are just used to earn even more profits? it's not like any of the companies I listed are struggling right now.

  • You have no clue. Initial proceeds from sales of video games go to recoup development costs and not future maintenence and content. But I should quit giving you the benefit of the doubt since you obviously have no clue about the industry.

  • Besides from Destiny, that cost $500 million, are you telling me that CoD goes towards recouping there developmental cost. I mean, they are the most sold game almost every year. On top of that, I don't think you understand that console gamers actually have to pay for DLC. You know, the content that comes after the release. But I'll let you live in your ignorance.

  • Dude your ignorance is astounding. You do not think R&D goes into expansion packs and added content? I'm through with you and your 50 point iq.

  • Yes, R&D does go into expansions. But 90% of the models are already made, the engine is already made, all you have to do is make the specialty pieces, build the set, and put in the voice acting (where it's easier said than done, that's the basics of it)
