So after watching the IGN reveal today and seeing a little of the Farm and what it will entail, I was looking to see if I could spot a shooting range anywhere.
They didn't show one, but as it's been pretty much one of the most requested features since Vanilla Destiny launched, I'm really hoping it's something that makes it into D2.
The soccer field was amusing, but not something I see players spending loads of time playing. A shooting range would be another story.
One of the things that dogged D1 is that so many of our drops went unused because taking an unknown weapon (particularly into PvP) just isn't that practical. Having a dedicated place to try them out, get a good feel for subtle differences and just practice handling would only benefit the players and the game.
There are a multitude of ways to go about it, from a CoD type obstacle course to the dynamic moving targets of the original Perfect Dark's range.
One thing that stood out from the reveal was the "great question" of what the Crucible Robots were for. I could be (read probably am) grasping at straws, but it would be awesome if they were a part of some form of shooting range or weapon testing system at the Farm.
What do you think? Is Shaxx getting our training ground ready? Is a shooting range something you want to see at the Farm?

20 AntwortenMore smoke and mirrors from Sols. "C'mon guys don't you remember? It's what we have all been asking for since year one" Is it fanboy? Is it really? We all know you won't stand any criticism of your Bungie overlords. The rose tinted glasses are strong with this one. What is the number one thing on the list of any player who has put time into this game? Dedicated servers. I don't remember seeing multiple salty threads about not having a shooting range. Threads about: Severs, Vault space, Matchmaking, Weapon balancing, Meta's, Thorn, Loot drops, Dry content, Silver, vault space, sub-classes, and vault space. I saw all of those. No salty shooting range threads? So please Sols, stop with your B.S. and trying to distract the community, who have legitimate complaints or concerns, over the game changes being made in D2. Most people been playing the game for 3 years. Credit those people with the intelligence to say what may help or damage the game. After all, when you think about it, Even the average Joe casual, plays the game more than any Bungie employee. Stop your nonsense.
