Well I have a feeling that using the [u]individuality[/u] of the guardians will play a larger role in multiplayer than in Halo. Where say that all we got i particular was our standard spartan all the same shielding and weapon damage all around, whether it was a BR or a Spartan Laser pointed at you you have an idea of what's coming next. But from what I've read, the guardian that you play as during your campaign is the same in the multiplayer. There are the supers, grenades, and foci that in team deathmatch variants especially that can change the course of the match. Those superior and exotic weapons will stand out the most and in destiny multiplayer you'll be seeing heavy ammo instead of those heavy weapons, which will mean always a new threat and something different based on how developed the skill trees are for the weapons and armor. In destiny I'm expecting our shields to be slightly un equal, as I believe Bakken had said the titan will be slightly harder to kill than the warlock and the hunter. And it was only described that if you catch a player completely off guard, he's going down. As far as those faster kill times I doubt that they would make it as fast as CoD, but by adding all these new options to take an enemy out it gives more umph to cut the duration of a match. Bungie can balance it out somehow.
