Ahhh, a fanboy thread. So, stop the press! New headline should read: [b]First Person on Earth Announces CoD Retirement[/b] Then the article continues: ManOFAnathoth, resident of parts unknown, was the first person worldwide to officially announce that they are giving up CoD (or any other real shooter. i.e. 'the big leagues') in lieu of this month's featured flavor. His kind claim that Destiny blahzay blahzay.... Then there are the bandwagoner fanboys, on every single one of these forums, that will say ridiculous things as if the Destiny people will actually ejaculate over it. Like trying rationalize that Destiny is some how their preference by stereotyping an entire game's community as bigots, 12-year-olds, etc. [b]1. Those statements in themselves are the very definition of bigotry. 2.Unless you are younger than 12, out of the vast amount of people playing CoD in particular, one should be able create/join their own limited community or at least be able to be assertive about the ignorance of others.[/b] Every game forum has its fanboys. Even CoD. And, every game has its campers, glitchers, etc. Its usually these people that exploit weaknesses in a game's design or what not, that are a game's biggest fanboys. They have all kinds of reasons that their new favorite is supposedly and somehow better than whatever they are trying to bash. When in fact, all they really like about the new one is that they got the leg up on whatever "advantages" that the game gives them over the newer, lower-ranked players. Then, said fanboys will claim, 'No, no. We like it cause of the [b]depth[/b]' or, 'We don't like "mindless" blahzay blahzay.' Or the story, or whatever else such fickle minded individuals might infer. Fact is, Destiny vs. CoD, is a comparison of apples and oranges. As in one is basically an RPG with some guns, (21st century guns btw) and the other is a lobby shooter. I guess apples and oranges isn't a good comparison though. More like horse poop compared to rabbit poop. I, for one, am glad I rented Destiny instead of just buying the hype. (same every year with CoD) Not that I hate it, but it really doesn't deliver... Depth is imaginary. It's just a time-hog that will probably develop into a money sink. Basically it forces weapons and gear upon you to keep getting stronger as a character. The timers on weapon and gear refresh should let everyone know that the game really isn't that deep. TIMERS are typically coincide with 'pay to win' browser games. No REAL character customization. This is a huge disappointment for an RPG. Vehicles are a joke. Floaters that don't drive very well...I would think that far in the future, that the technology would be better, that vehicles would handle BETTER than they do in the present day. Also, if everything has to fly, why can't it go higher than 5 feet from the ground? I got melee killed while on a pike, blasting the guy in the face who meleed me! [u]That's lame...and stupid.[/u] Matchmaking is absolutely horrible. Throwing the pre-teens in with anything above 15 is not going to encourage any newcomers to stick around/buy the game. Story is ridiculous. There is no REAL story, just a bunch of clusterf'''' missions that are all basically the same exact thing. Multiplayer is lame. Aside from the horrific matchmaking, haven't been in a match yet where the main focus of the fight wasn't to ambush (get ambushed) the other guys with "special powers." It's basically just like WoW or DC Universe multiplayer....alot of potions and spells and crap. Plus [b]6v6?[/b] "Come on man!" I could go on but its already longer than I wanted to spend letting fanboys know who they are. CoD is a tested and proven [b]franchise[/b]. I don't disagree that the franchise has steadily declined in comparison to MW4's level of fun. But, CoD is successful because basically any ole fool that walks up to console at a mall can jump right in and play....with at least a possibility of being essential to the fight. Destiny apparently expects the lower-level multiplayers to be slayed for a month before they can actually join a fight. If someone is sitting around at level 28 and everyone on their team is a 25+. Everyone on the other team is 25+. If that someone is not pissed about having a level 10 put in as their 6th player......If that level 10 gets put on the other team, or better yet, the other team is ALL lower-levels...If said person at level 28 actually has fun EASILY mowing down the lower-level, and are not disappointed that they weren't dealt a better [b]MATCHUP[/b], then said person is exactly the kind of exploitive fanboy that is labeled in my statements above.
