The beta has plenty of threads going up at the moment. Most of them are people who accidentally took a shower in salt water instead of regular water this morning, but there is definitely plenty of feedback out there.
Regardless of the beta's issues (edit: I do think that the beta does have a few issues), are we all able to agree that the Homecoming mission is by far a step in the right direction for story missions?
There's actual cinematics, you can see NPCs fighting in-game, and you can even revive Commander Zavala if he dies.
And Ghaul seems like a pretty menacing villain already when compared to the lack of a "real" villain in Destiny 1's vanilla story. Edit: Not saying Ghaul is like an amazing villain, just saying when compared to D1 he's better.
Even if Destiny 2's story isn't anything groundbreaking, it already looks better then Destiny 1's story, in my opinion.
Edit: Not trying to say that it's the best mission in any game ever or something, just saying it's much better than Destiny 1.
Edit 2: A lot of people are getting the message that I think negativity is just salt because of my "took a shower in salt water" comment above. This isn't the case at all.
I'm all for negativity if it helps the game. The salt water comment was just a sarcastic joke about the people saying "F U Bungie, the beta is trash." That has no useful feedback whatsoever. The same goes for positive feedback. Saying "Fantastic beta Bungie, good job!" is nice and all, but it doesn't explain why the beta was good, thus it doesn't really have any feedback.
Multiple people now have misunderstood my original point, so I just wanted to clarify this. I don't think negativity is just salt, it was just a joke is all.

Yup, lets be honest for a second though - they did not have a high bar to jump over. Countdown is fun too, even for jumping in solo. The high TTK and the p2p is really bugging me though, they just don't go well together. A little lag on the other guys end and it takes so many damn shots to kill people sometimes.

2 RisposteI agree that homecoming was the best part of the entire beta. Happily played through each class going through it.

Countdown is so good.

2 Rispostei myself am loving the beta and cant wait for the full game, i loved the story mission and hope they release the second mission before the beta goes off. stop being salty everyone this is exactly what we asked for, we asked bungie to find a way to stop i hit grenades and reduce ability spam so they did and now yuo are all complaining dont take this the wrong way but im sure there will be thing implimented to reduce cooldowns, yes tell bungie how you feel but dont try to say its just plain crap when there are clearly people who are enjoying the beta.

The particle effects are pretty nice, too.

[b][i][u]things D2 has gotten right[/u][/i][/b] • SFX • cinematically enhanced story • graphics • overall story presentation • that guy who loves his job (that David guy)

Yes pve seems a bit better but I'm hoping the weapons in the real game are much better than what few we we're given so far

6 RisposteYou can't say it's good either as you haven't seen enough of it. The cut scenes are really jarring as they take a few seconds to load up and don't really fit the flow.
