Size of the game (with source)
All right guys, I have been waiting to post this, but last night DeeJ confirmed, that there will be 1 explorable location per planet and this basically also confirmed, that the following source is realible:
http://destinydb.info/activities (edit: the creator of the website asked me to write that the info is from 30.June)
[u][b]I browsed this website a lot and realized how endgame content is going to work. To sum it up:[/b][/u]
[b]Before you read on: this may or may not be how the final product is going to look like. It is just a speculation based on the website mentioned above. I do not want to convince you about anything, but I'm sure if you browse that site you will come to a similar conclusion.
Beware, this may contain spoilers!!! [/b]
- 4 explorable locations (Earth, Moon, Mars, Venus)
- 6 strikes (1 Earth, 1 Moon, 2 Mars, 2 Venus. However one of the Mars strike is PS exclusive.)
- 1 raid (The Vault of Glass)
- 16 pvp maps
It's already been told, that we are going to hit lvl 20 quickly. So what happens after this?
We are going to have the possibility to run a random strike (accessible from the orbit) on a higher level:
-lvl18
-lvl20
-lvl22
-lvl24
For example the Devil's Lair is going to be there on those difficulties.
But how can you achieve a level over 20? It is well documented, that you can get to lvl 20 by collecting XP. In order to gain additional levels, you need to obtain gear with [b]"light stat" [/b] . Light gives you additional level.
So, what you are going to do, when you hit 20? You will go to lvl 20 strikes to get gear with light. I suspect, that the strikes and rewards will be scaled, so that you have to spend a lot of time on a level in order to get access to the next one.
What happens, when you hit lvl 24 and finished farming all the high level strikes? [b]You go to weekly strikes[/b]
This means, that every week there is going to be a strike on an even higher level.
-lvl24
-lvl26
-lvl28
For example Devil's Lair is going to be this strike from 09.sept. - 16.sept. And so on. This mode is called: [b]Nightfall[/b]
After you cleared all the weekly strikes you go to the Vault of Glass. It will be on lvl27, lvl31 and lvl31.
EDIT_1:
I also found something called "Activity Power" associated to every activity on that website. I think it's the true scale of difficulty of each activity. For example:
lvl 8 - Devil's Lair = Activity Power 0,37
lvl 20 - Devil's Lair = Activity Power 8
lvl 24 - Devil's Lair = Activity Power 53
lvl 28 - Devil's Lair = Activity Power 98
lvl 31 - Vault of Glass = Activity Power 132
This will take time Guardians!
EDIT_2:
Meanwhile basically the same Information appeared on Destiny Reddit:

14 RepliesIf this is true, on the exploration part, then Destiny is a MAJOR disappointment, shame on bungie for over hyping it.
-
6 RepliesIf we have only got one area per planet then what will we do throughout the game. This is meant to last us 10 years and I don't want to be expected to do the same missions back to back between three characters continuously... If this is true then I'm gonna cry :P
-
16 RepliesI've heard a rumor that the expansions will come quickly and that there will be a lot. The first one was rumored to be coming out in dec
-
7 RepliesLmao dumb ass post. There's gonna be story missions on old Chicago Europa etc most likely. You are able to explore story missions ofcourse. What DeeJ is saying is there is only 4 patrol areas.

1 ReplyWhat about the Reef?

1 ReplyYou forgot #bait

5 RepliesThe game is supposed to be going for 10 years, I doubt that's all there is. Please take your #bait elsewhere.

3 Replies"These first five destinations (...referring to information captions on Old Russia, Venus, Mars, The Tower, and Earth's moon...) are a sampling of what's to come; Destiny's fiction clearly establishes all the planets, moons, asteroids, and other features of our solar system is fair game for exploration." -Gameinformer issue #249 January 2014 p.52 (Destiny cover story)

Another over speculating albino who read the database like a bible.

Reliable source? Why is it?
-
Don't forget that collecting xp after lv20 gives you Motes of Light (valuable currency). But this is exactly what I was thinking, seems like you've got it down.
-
2 RepliesSo who am I supposed to trust? Bungie or your source? This is what I found on the official site about Earth. The wilderness beyond the walls of the City are ruined and corrupted, claimed by nature and our enemies. From the war-torn fortresses of the Twilight Gap to the skyward steppes of Old Russia, evidence of our lost glory still litters the Earth, waiting to be rediscovered. Will the Twilight Gap be a explorable area or just a Crucible map?
-
2 RepliesSo old Russia is the only place on earth I can visit,I don't think I can take more of that -blam!-ing place

IM BATMAN!!!!

35 RepliesEveryone take a closer look at the person who posted this. His account was made in 2014. He's either a little kid or a PSN player who doesn't really know how bungie works. There has already been conformations of MULTIPLE locations on mars such as the Exclusion Zone, Charlemagnes Vault, and the Dust Palace. Plus there has been multiple other drawings done by bungie of atleast 4 other locations. Same with Earth in places like Europe, Old Chicago, Mumbai Push, and the Twilight Gap, just to name a few confirmed ones. DeeJ probably meant something else or might have just said that to throw us off a little before launch so we will be a little more surprised, but I can guarantee that there will be more then just one map per world. Along with more planets like Jupiter, Mercury, Europa, Saturn, and Derelict space ships. So now everyone calm down and enjoy the Beta:)

3 RepliesEdited by WurstsaIat: 7/27/2014 7:24:06 PMIf this is true and Destiny will really have so little content at release the reviewers will downrate it to hell, nobody will buy it except for the people who preordered it and Bungie can shove their paid content up their asses. Well at least I hope this will happen.

Edited by Cordic_Cyberpunk: 7/27/2014 9:36:14 PMYou must be shiting me. Only 1 explorable area. The old russia map is all we get on earth? This game is not going to be big?!!?

1 ReplyEdited by Seraph: 7/27/2014 5:38:12 PMAnd to think I had concerns on Destiny's longevity based on the Lv.20 cap. The sad thing is Old Russia is already beginning to feel repetetive to me, after a week and a half of levelling 3 characters, if we've already experienced a quarter of the games full size then Destiny is much smaller than we were all led to believe ( whatever happened to less than 1/10 of the game ). Not that this a complete deal breaker. I spent years ( almost 1000 hours ) playing Phantasy Star Online episodes 1 and 2 trying to get all my characters to Lv.200 and hunting rare weapons and equipment. A game with less than a dozen individual stages, thing is I no longer have the tolerance for repetition that I did 10 to 15 years ago.

What if we get to explore inside the traveler
-
21 RepliesIf you go to the grimoire section on the left you can select Locations. This section lists [b]Mercury, Saturn and Jupiter[/b] in addition to the ones you mentioned.
-
6 RepliesJust read that theres only one location per planet. Thats a joke. THis game seems very small for a 500 million dollars game.

Im ok with grind, I've played the worst grinds in free to play games but this will actually be fun. The vault of glass, thats my shit

1 ReplyNobody fully knows how much u get to explore in destiny! So you're all wrong. My guess is 15 explorer locations. Beta has 2 exploring locations moon, earth and is 14gb full game is 40gb and has over 15
