Halo is not open world. I can't double jump miles high, there is no loot, no aiming down the side, no armor giving you bonuses, no skill trees, no special super powers, no rechargeable melee and grenade skills, no headshot damage bonuses on shielded players/enemies etc.. So can people like you finally stop comparing Destiny to Halo. That's just nonsense. As if Halo is the only game with vehicles and a multiplayer versus mode and random alien species you can find in most other sci-fi shooters etc. The game is closer to Borderlands than to any other FPS. Are people really that stupid and compare it to Halo ONLY because Bungie made it, or what?? The game doesn't even come close to a Halo in terms of gameplay. Protecting Bungie, lol. The game has some slight similarities to Bungies Halo. Which game hasn't? Shall Bungie sue every company out there for copying their controller button layout for console FPS? The rehcargeable shield mechanic? The quick throwing grenade feature? No. Why should they? And why should MS sue Bungie then when there is NO REASON to do so. seriously.

  • Sorry, I stopped reading after "halo isn't open world". I'm assuming you think destiny is open world. You must have never played any real open world games.

    When you stopped reading, why are you wasting my (and others) time then? And if you don't bother reading at all, then simply ignore boards/forums. That's the dumbest argument I can read in forums. Seriously. Nor Destiny or Halo are open world games/true open world games (in case of Destiny). GTA5 and FC4 are recent examples of open world games. But many people these days call games like BL or Destiny open world titles, cauz you have much bigger environments to explore and actual free roaming with no given objectives + the freedom deciding what to next. Destiny offers main missions and sub quests (smaller story icons on the map) and free roaming. You don't necessarily need to complete them in specific order. For instance, you can simply avoid the missions which unlock strikes and still progress in the story in the main game. That's also the definition of open world: to choose what you wanna do. Open world or not. While Destiny is partially an open world game (the only thing what keeps Destiny away from being an open world game is one single world the player interacts with....which is quite hard when the game is about planetary exploration). Halo clearly isn't because it has no distinct elements of an open world game, except for bigger environments than a Call of Duty. Halo still is a linear FPS.

  • Prowlyb and Bailey you two have no respect for how hard Bungie has worked on this game. Spidey is right and you two are just butt hurt. Also your logic that Microsoft should sue the creator of a game about copying their own game (which is completely inaccurate because the games are not very similar) is very dull and wouldn't actually make it near court. And if you say this a joke that is clearly false because you wouldn't post that on Bungie's website.[/quote]

  • Exactly, many games are similar in modes and mechanics. But story and characters divide them. Similarities will always occure, but I approve as long as they are good

    that didn't sounded like a joke because many users here already compared that game to Halo countless times, and yours was not different. If you try to be funny, be creative at least. And I'm surely not an emotional wreck because of a videogame. I'm just tired of nonsense.

  • Well I'll admit my post was really smart, so it was probably over your head anyway. Don't worry about it. All is forgiven.

  • I'm pretty sure this is how he reacted to your post - "Hey look! A completely obvious joke! I better start ripping it apart and taking it literally because I can't understand it!"
