Destiny PvP Balance
How do you think Bungie will handle Destiny's PvP? The problem they face is the same of that of Borderlands 1 PvP. If they want it to be arena-like, and balanced such as Halo multiplayer they would need to remove the entire leveling system (I assume there will be one) so that all player
's characters are of equal power, and remove/buff/nurf all your character's unique weapons so that there is an even playing field. Don't get me wrong all of the above would SUCK, but Gearbox didn't do any of that for Borderlands 1 (although it was a great game), which made its PvP nothing but a game of seeing which of the two-four player's level was the highest (and of course whose ever level was the highest owned everyone else). They could employ a system such as the one used in CoD, Battlefield, Planetside 2, etc so that leveling up does come with more powerful weapons, gear, and other perks, but the problem with that is gear in Destiny is not acquired through leveling up, but adventuring and looting as you go. If anyone has a theory about how Bungie is going to pull it off please leave a comment (or if Bungie has already made something clear to the public about this and I just completely missed it).

M4ttchooにより編集済み: 6/23/2013 3:18:18 PMListen... I'm all about balanced PVP. I come from YEARS UPON YEARS of playing Quake, UT, and Halo 1-4 competitively. I've yet to find a PVP experience better than Arena balanced PVP. However, when it comes to Destiny, I'm willing to trust in Bungie to change it up a bit. I am very intrigued with the idea of bringing my skills and loot onto a massive battlefield for PVP. Bungie has always enjoyed competitive multiplayer, so I'm fairly confident they will make it fun even if it is not "balanced" like an Arena PVP. I would like to predict that Destiny could have a couple different options for PVP. I bet that they will have their general PVP which could be similar to a WoW, Planetside, or Dark Age of Camelot style PVP, but I wonder if they will also have "gladiator" (aka Arena) PVP available to players as well. Why not? They can just have it in game where a player just has to walk to the local Colosseum where the players put down all of their regular gear and pickup standard issued City equipment. Last comment.... I've seen people commenting how a sniper or RL will just dominate the other gun options in PVP. My rebuttal is you can't think of the Destiny snipers and RLs like the Halo versions. Halo was an Arena based game. Snipers and RLs were "powerweapons". I think the Destiny version of snipers and RLs will be more like Borderlands. Yes, they are quite powerful, but they were just another weapon class available.
