I have a lot of gripes with the game like many people if I'm being objective but I gotta say...
Destiny just might be the best FPS I've ever experienced. I think it just comes down to mechanics/variety/investment.
Many other great FPS have 1-2 of these traits but never all 3. Battlefield 3/4 had great mechanics and variety but lacked the investment I have in Destiny.
Halo and CoD also with great mechanics
I just think the total package that is Destiny is what keeps me coming back.
Even once I have the load out I desire I still love playing crucible knowing there won't be any rewards most likely.
It's just fun to play.

Edited by slopat: 1/19/2016 6:24:28 AMNot sure that Destiny can be qualified as simply an FPS. It more or less created its own genre, which is quite an accomplishment. Best FPS for me, probably because I was young enough to be competitive and am nostaligic for the game, mouse & KB, and my youth would be Quake 2.

No! Face raiders would be a better FPS than this shit pile of a game.
-
Lol no. PvP is absolutely terrible not even top 50 PvE is pretty good though
-
Halo 3
-
No....just no....
-
Far from it
-
Perfect Dark N64

Honestly, destiny is a piece of dirt... But saying that... I've had such a great laugh over the past year... Met some sound ppl, formed a proper little crew that had mad laughs on the daily, all day every day haha... Beating our first lvl 26 strike, Beating our first nightfall, Beating atheon for the first time? Man some good times!! On top of that, the game has amazing mechanics, its just a shame bungie are in charge... A company that destroyed an amazing game bit by bit :( wat an absolute waste

I'm with you OP, from a mechanics standpoint Destiny is quite possibly the smoothest and most rewarding FPS out there. Even companies like Bethesda have recognized this when they recruited the gunplay designer from Bungie to work on the gunplay for Fallout 4. Other game companies have recognized this as well, in addition to such critics as GameFAQ, GamesRadar, and Game Informer. I will admit, the game has started to die down for me a bit given the same content with nothing new, but what keeps me coming back is how good the gunplay feels and getting to try out new weapons.

It definitely has the potential but things need to change. I used to like both PvP and PvE but the PvP end of things is starting to become awful. I'm almost inclined to say the game would be better off with PvE only for the future. I would have never said this a year ago but it's just the way I feel now. Who knows maybe they will change things around in the future.
-
Halo 2, MW2, Halo 3, MW3, Battlefield 3. Maybe by this logic Destiny 2 will be awesome
-
MW2 & MW3 - Best FPS
-
COD MW2 BF3

Destiny best FPS ever? Hell No! I love Destiny despite its many flaws. I love it still even if I don't necessarily like some of the changes that's been implemented since vanilla. I do believe that the potential for Destiny being a great FPS is huge. Sadly I believe the execution part kinda failed. The idea, the concept of Destiny is amazing but the final execution held it back. For me best FPS ever still belongs to COD Modern Warfare (1&2). I do have high hopes that Bungie actually learned a lot from Destiny that once they released Destiny 2 it will blow competition out of the water.
-
I believe it has potential (Imo)
-
No borderlands 2 is loads better than this
-
This is probably the best game I've ever played. Definitely the most hours per dollar spent. And replay has been phenomenal.
-
Hell no
-
Doom 2 or Unreal Tournament. Vintage.
-
Nope. Halo 2/3. Personal favorite is Republic Commando for sentimental reasons.
-
I think so. Except Trials. Trials is blammity blam blam pow
-
Lol. Definitely [u]not[/u]. I loved it to begin with, but a decent fps has to have replay value and so many people have stopped playing.....
-
For me yes... Best [i][u][i]PvE[/i][/u][/i] ever. PvP... No
-
Naw I had more fun with ModernWarfare to be honest. Too much aim assist in this game. Also too much lag to the point where you want to rage quit. PVE wise though, yeah destiny is the best. But PVP? Not even close
-
Dedicated servers. 60fps. That's what it needs to be the best fps ever.
