Destiny 2: Forsaken - Visual Effects

Visual effects are often an obscure part of video game development, but one that you encounter constantly in-game. [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/47345]Explore how our artists have brought life into Destiny 2: Forsaken.[/url]

  • I'll take smooth gameplay, no frame rate loss, and no disconnects over good graphics any day. For instance, when FNBR first came out it was very smooth. Then they massively updated their graphics and then frame rates were dropping all over the place and spawn in was a mess (XB1). F the graphics, give me a perfectly smooth game.

    Wow the first thing you think of and it visual affects? The game is so buggy that I can’t go from one side of a map to the other in pve patrol without the message “ LOADING “ popping up every few minutes so instead of distracting us with this bullshit of the crucible or gambit or even raids you might want to fix the bass part of the game before addressing anything else that’s if us as customers don’t go somewhere else for our entertainment🤨

    • What's obscure is the film grain effect everywhere. Please remove it.

    • These visual effects arent even that good for the amount of resources they use. As a mesh developer myself, the inefficiency of this game sometimes boggles me. You praise how good everything is, supposed to be a AAA studio but often all the time i see texture clipping, gaps in meshes, etc. If you guys really want to wow people, start putting less work into "lets see how sparkly and glittery and fancy we can make this rock." and put it into "Lets make some of the guns look and feel different. Or you know, make gun sounds that don't sound like a bird chirping through a desk fan. Or Titan armor that doesn't look like garbage. Or actual armor for Hunters. Or outfits for Warlocks that aren't asymmetrical robes designed by 6 year olds.

      • Can we please get the option to disable some particle effects, motion blur, lens flares, chromatic aberration? The game would look and run so much better.

        If your game’s content and reward economy were as great as the visuals you would have a masterpiece.

        • [u][b]We'd like to visualize Masterwork Cores leaving infusion if someone could address that, please. [/b][/u] Otherwise, yes, the game IS definitely gorgeous. As is the sound design.

        • There are parts of this game where the visual effects are fantastic. The scenery, design, and colors are amazing. The creatures, in particular, look great. However, there are some things that, shall we say.....need some work. The visuals in Crucible need some love. The supers cause way too much obfuscation of the area around me. If I toss two hammers quickly, I lose all view of what I was aiming at. If not for Shaxx, I would have no idea that I hit an enemy. Same goes for Acrstrider. I can't see squat through the visuals. Too much noise in the animations and enemies need to be more clearly marked. I didn't have this issue in D1. I'm sorry to say, that Destiny 1 PvP graphics were superior.

        • Infusion and Exotics for Y2 are still hot-button community issues and game stability is apparently now an issue, and Bungie sings the praises of their "visual effects". Sounds about right. Pay no attention to that large pachyderm in the room Bungie. Just keep believing that only YOU are right and everything will be fine.

          • Dmg dmg dmg. Walk with me.... look not gonna lie buddy the game is beautiful. But...people out there are living on the streets trying to sell their blue engrams and auto rifles with opening shot. And they are forced to use these because they don’t have enough masterwork cores and exotics. But listen to this at least....when you go into your conference room with those guys whose ears are red from wearing headphones to much tell you to make the game harder. You don’t have to listen to them.

          • Eye candy only lasts so long. These forums are a good source of what your playerbase is experiencing. Those that like this game but are frustrated with their experience or game performance just want honest feedback and honest content. This is a 10 year grindy game that caps and purposely slows your grind. Please find a balance as those who put many hours in still are being locked out from enjoying new exotics and leveling up gear and weapons they love. Let our legend be OUR legend. Free our guardians!

            • We’ve established that everything is pretty and all but can we get a reason to grind heroic strikes again? Skeleton keys? Specific loot? Level increases? Please, make strikes great again.

              • cool but people are more concerned about more pressing issues like: infusion mod components exotic drop rates suros regime competitive match making match making in general if you could give us any updates on how these issues are being handled that would be much more appreciated. we know most of these are being looked at currently but some more insight and transparency into how they may be changing would be nice.

                • Option to turn off such visuals and effects might just help frame rate issues and endless loading screens or maybe a setting to dumb down textures . Lighting alone is a resource hog, example, the haunted forest actually runs better than the infinite forest .

                • Excuse me, but I'm still .... LOADING..... IN THE DAMN TOWER! Then I'll be 45 seconds to a minute to be able to start the strike that I'm on with my son who is in a room further away from the router, but is party lead, so it takes me forever to get into it, on the same router, same network, same connection,..... Then I hit every dang ....LOADING.... zone in maps and get hung up there for extended periods of time.... even solo, and no one else is in that area when I get there. FIX THE GAME.

                  • I love how the Warlock's cloak is glitched out on the bottom half in the first picture. Reminds me of Two Tokens and a Blue.

                  • Why are you actively promoting the one aspect of the game that's killing the experience on consoles right now? I'm on PS4 and the game is beginning to border on being unplayable with all the frame rate drops due to excessive particle and other effects. Being silent on this issue while promoting its cause feels like classic Bungie asshattery.

                      • The artistry, the creativity and genius of the visuals are monumental. No doubt about it, as far as I'm concerned. High praise from me to you all. It's too bad so much of what has been created remains locked behind skill gates.

                      • Hey bungie. Have you ever thought about adding a theater mode? Like you go to the tower and access a terminal and you can find all your most recent gameplay footage. Kinda like halos theater mode.

                        • I forgot how awesome and intelligent the pc community is! You all have talked about the topics burdening this game in a positive way, constructive criticism, something the console community has been lacking. Mostly have seen alot of 15 year olds saying dumb stuff like hate speaches. The game looks great on console but still has its hiccups. Holding out hope for more improvements
