    • Destiny needs less destiny and more Tyrannosauruses with rocket launchers for eyes and miniguns for man-bits.

      • While I do think of the jetpack as a broken overpowered ability, especially in competitive multipayer. I don't think it's worth not buying a potentially fun game over. So while I don't think jetpacks can add anything positive to the experience, I'm not going to let one downside to a game prevent me from renting and/or buy it. If I did do that then I wouldn't be playing video games at all. besides, we have literally no proof one way or the other that jetpacks will be implemented at all in the game.

      • Destiny is a completely different game; Jet Packs could be better suited in this one (if they are included).

          • I agree. And if they bring back the DMR I'm boycotting the entire franchise.

            • No crying about it did and trying to make it a unpleasant experience for others did. Do not play the game if you cannot handle the changes.

              • Your loss, OP. Jetpacks or no, I preordered my copy of Destiny the moment the ViDoc was launched and Gamestop would let me. Just saying.

              • So true. Jets packs are non-sense And please put a ranking system In destiny. And anybody else who doesn't agree obviously only made it to the rank of staff captain.

                • The way some people talk about Destiny you'd think it was a new Halo game.

                • =/ I'm all for competitive gaming but Destiny should not be treated like it's Halo. Destiny is its own IP and as long as they can make something work in a nice and balanced way idc.

                  • You shouldn't buy Destiny OP if you can't discern the difference between it and Halo. You're going to be majorly confused and upset when everyone is using space magic, classes, and enhanced weapons with names like "Fools End" if you're trying to balance and nerf Bungies new IP. Please try to put aside the culture of no and simply enjoy the adventure that Bungie is trying to create.

                    • Yes we could all agree the jetpack was pretty -blam!-ing lame.... I will agree with those saying this is a little immature being this won't break a game you can get past this.

                    • Well if you are going to have a temper tantrum over something so small do not buy it then. Heres a Tissue!*Hands KING RAMBO II a box of tissues* I am getting my game on as will many others. I enjoyed jet packs.

                    • This is assuming that Destiny will even be an arena shooter. At any rate, if the game is open world, I'd love to have a jetpack that functions somewhat like thruster packs at 300% movement speed. Just imagine, flying over an ever-expanding landscape. Combat would kinda be like a fighter sim, I guess...

                          Well I can definitely understand your concern. Jetpacks were definitely a nightmare; the way they affected map control in competitive multiplayer was horrific to say the least. I definitely think I'd prefer something like the Thruster Pack from Halo 4 more, it gives you a short boost if you try to use it to jump, but it's much more useful for manuevering on the ground and its impact on map control isn't so dramatic. It's definitely not an issue that would cause one to not buy the game, but I do agree, as fun as they are, Jetpacks probably do more harm than good to Competitive Multiplayer :)

                                Jet packs are awesome say in the situation such as if your sniping and you want to get to a ledge on a mountain quickly you can just jet pack up fast and easy instead of trying to parkour your way up. Im hoping they have them they are so useful.

                                • I hope that there's jetpacks in the game now. One less idiot for me to run into whilst playing the game.
