Should Destiny add splitscreen Post Launch?
Bungie just released that there will be no splitscreen in Destiny. However, they also said that if the community came together on a subject then they WILL listen. We need to band together, and show that we CARE about whether or not there is splitscreen.
I want to play with my friends and family. I don't want to spend $400+ just to please these major companies. Ever since Halo, I've loved split-screen. I couldn't STOP. 4-Player FPS was my DREAM, and now Bungie, my HERO, makes the one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen single player, I couldn't stand aside.
This is for the gamers who love splitscreen.
This is for the people who want to make their OWN choices, not the ones who'd rather have greedy gaming companies chose FOR them.
This is for the family.
This is for the friends.
This is for split-screen.
Please comment below why you do or don't want split-screen.
Also share this link all over the web. Twitter. Facebook. Bungie. With your help we can bring split-screen back to Destiny.
(EDIT #2) The change.org petition was made by someone else.
http://www.change.org/petitions/destiny-add-split-screen-co-op
(EDIT) Also everyone. Be nice and respectful of others. Keep it clean out there, I don't want this to be reduced to a shouting match. Keep the peace.
I hope you're listening Deej.
(EDIT)
Guys, lets think for a moment.
People talk about consoles not being able to handle splitscreen and single player experiences being ruined because adding splitscreen would reduce single player graphics.
If this was [b]true[/b], wouldn't Bungie have just [b]said[/b] that in their explanation of why splitscreen wasn't in Destiny?
Think about it.
If consoles didn't have the power, wouldn't Bungie have just [b]said [/b]that for their reason why Destiny didn't have splitscreen?
If single player graphics were decreased, wouldn't Bungie have just [b]said [/b]that for their reason why Destiny didn't have splitscreen?
But Bungie [b]DIDN'T[/b].
Their silence speaks for itself.
None of the above is [b]TRUE[/b], because if it [b]WAS [/b]Bungie would have just [b]SAID SO[/b] as their excuse for no splitscreen!
[b]Think [/b]about it! If it was [b]TRUE [/b]they would have just used it as their excuse!
However they [b]DIDN'T[/b].
Which means only one thing:
[b]IT ISN'T TRUE.[/b]
They [b]never [/b]mentioned it! They said nothing about console power or single player graphics!
So the REASON WHY it wasn't mentioned is because it [b]SIMPLY ISN'T TRUE![/b]
Consoles [b]CAN [/b]handle it!
Singe player graphics [b]AREN'T [/b]affected!
And Bungie doesn't [b]want [/b]us to know!
They only technicalities they went into were "rendering" and "tethering", however, they also [b]never [/b]said that splitscreen [b]WASN'T [/b]possible!
They speak of rendering and tethering, but never said that it [b]WASN'T [/b]possible!
Cmon people! Look at it! Splitscreen [b]IS [/b]possible, and we [b]need [/b]to speak up!
Btw MMO's can have splitscreen.

Yeah I was pretty disappointed but I can sort of understand because you need to be similarly leveled. Also the particles might break the game.

Maybe if you have two or three characters on an account letting someone split screen using one of your alts would be cool but I don't really see it happening anytime soon or ever to be honest
-
How are you gonna play 2 different accounts at the same time from one console and IP addres? No, a system in place that allowed that would be easy to exploit.

No, no, and no.

Destiny isn't an MMO Upon that yes I think it would be a good idea for split screen, so Bungie can screw over two people simultaneously

Holy crap this must've gotten necrobumped

Pve split screen would be awesome. Pvp would just encourage the cheesers for the pain in the butt bounties.

1 ReplyMultiplayer games are trying to move away from split screen and if you were to play it every player would need a separate psn account I guarantee you that so it wouldn't be a great benefit however if they can add it I don't see why not

1 ReplyAs much as I would love having split screen on this game, I don't see at all how it would work. To the current game, it's doing something [i]completely[/i] different to the game. It'd probably have to wait until the next game before this gets implemented, if at all.

1 ReplyYour console would blow up if they had split screen. It'd try to render too much stuff [spoiler]Old ass post btw[/spoiler]
-
Maybe when they're focusing on current gen only down the road they can implement couch co-op. Borderlands 2 was a blast to play with my kid on the ps3. It seems clear that Destiny splitscreen would be too much for the last gen systems to handle in comparison.

4 RepliesFor pve, sure. Just not in pvp.

I would love to split screen with my brother and teach him everything

1 ReplyThey should have four split screens and a mode where we can fight each other with a Goldeneye setting.

1 ReplyEdited by Disfigure: 4/28/2015 2:08:06 PMSplit screen should be added to this game. It feel a bit funny even typing this out because of how ludicrous I find it that the game does not have split screen already. It was one of the key features of all of the Halo games that we fell in love with Bungie for. It is absolutely unacceptable that this game does not have it as far as I am concerned. I started gaming because it was something I could do with my friends that we all loved, and now more importantly with my wife. My wife and I have been huge Halo fans and played online since halo 2 religiously. However we have an infant daughter and simply cannot afford 2 consoles (nor do we have any use for 2 other than as a solution to not having split screen on games like this). I can completely understand if split screen could only be 2 player if 4 player is too taxing on the console, however I find it completely ridiculous that it does not exist at all. As part of the generation that made video games a huge mainstream thing (all of us that are now in our early to late 20's) I feel I speak for us all when I say that we are all getting older, many of us have families. I cannot buy a 2 seat convertible anymore because there is not enough room for my family, and I WILL NOT purchase a game that I cannot play side by side with my wife. Yes, you read correct, what I am saying is that I will not purchase this game and you will not see any money from me if you do not add split screen to the game. I have a feeling I am not alone. Please Bungie, add split screen to the game and allow me to enjoy another masterpiece. (EDIT) I also wanted to add that I still had not purchased a next gen console because the cost was not worth it to me until very recently (4/25/2015). The ONLY reason I decided to buy an XB One was because I bought the Master Chief collection, and I wanted the more powerful media center capabilities of the XB One. I had originally not planned to buy the system until a game came out that I really wanted. Destiny was not this game because of the lack of split screen. I REALLY wanted Destiny, but not without split screen. So I own the console now :) SO MAKE THE GAME SPLIT SCREEN SO I CAN JUSTIFY BUYING IT PLZ :D

1 ReplyI want it and that would be fun, but it just wouldn't work. The way destiny works with its servers and the constantly online thing, it would take more than one console and one screen to give you any kind of pleasing entertainment. A simple households setup and wifi couldn't handle it. Maybe private local matches?
