I absolutely love this idea. I think this should be in the world somewhere. Each large clan has their own little base of operations in Last City and have a system like the one you have described. This would, honestly, be perfect for my Regiment.

  • Now, as someone else on this thread suggested, the clan weapons and armor might not be a good system if you're a level one Guardian with a exotic level 20 rifle, but maybe you could use the high level weapons your guild owned once you reached the required rank? I would like to hear your thoughts.

  • well this is true. I think to combat this, there should be weapon lockers. But as you have just suggested, I am not sure if someone who was level 1 would be allowed to use a level 20 weapon. Borderlands 2 didnt allow this. And in a sense, its fair. Why should you be able to use any weapon starting out? You should have to earn your worth, and that includes being able to use level weapons.

  • Yes. Weapon & armor lockers for the ones the clan/guild/regiment has bought would be very useful. Since we know that you can't fly your ships in combat, if you could have clan ships anyone of any rank could use them unlike the weapons & armor. Since everyone would have personal ships it would make sense to have gunships & battleships that the clan would have in a clan raid cutscene. The kind of large ship I'm thinking of would be like the one in the Fallen public event at E3, although for Guardians.

  • Maybe and hear me out something along the lines of dead rising 3 and the blue prints. A combo of level and did you find weapons that are similar. That way you still need to explore and unlock some abilities such as finding at least one gun from that lvl. Like you reach lvl 20 you should at least find one weapon of that lvl yo trade for another of same lvl. Also if someone give that gun up to a weapons locker they no longer have that. I mean if your clan has 3 of the same gun it doesn't mean everyone in the clan gets that gun. There is only as many as your clan finds

  • You read my mind perfectly on that, Hunter. Something like a Destroyer class ship from Star Wars would fit the bill perfectly I think. Something that could act like a small hanger for the entire guild/clan/regiment, what have you. Something that shows off your group and everyone else is like ddaammnn.

  • Especially if you could customize it. Maybe it wouldn't cost anything to customize a whole battleship, but it would at least to upgrade to a higher ranked ship that looks more powerful and can hold more ships. If they added space combat in later Destiny games, it would be a really cool factor, but since I think they'll be staying with land combat and no space combat, it would still be cool for the cutscenes and a good place to store your ships.

  • I have been a strong advocate for space battles since the beginning of hearing about Destiny. I think, eventually, within the 10 years, we'll be able to see some space combat. I want large scale fights, both on and off the ground, in space and in atmosphere. One battle in particular would be absolutely amazing if you want any details.

  • I'd like details! And yes space combat would add so much more to Destiny even if it was available in only one planet's system.

  • alright so the ultimate battle in Destiny that I want to see, or in any game really is a battleship vs battleship. What I mean by this is two ships controlled by two teams. You have multiple ways to wage war. You can use the weapon emplacements and bombard the other ship into submission. you can jump in your ship and dog fight, or you can hop into boarding vehicles and attempt to board the other battleship. Your goal is to either destroy the other ship or capture it. I think it would be simply amazing to have hundreds of players working together to achieve this goal.

  • That would be awesome. Any way your team approaches that sounds like fun. Imagine all three going non at once

  • That would be very cool. Especially if it was available as a "raid" type mission. That idea really reminds me of Star Wars Battlefront 2, though that game isn't nearly on that scale of massiveness. If they added your idea, which I like very much, then if you could customize your ship (like in Assassin's Creed 4) with better defensive turrets, shields, hangar space and better scanning capability to find other missions further from Earth that would be very neat. Now if they had a public event version of this, that would be even better. Maybe a public ship that players who chose a certain faction (Osiris, or another one for example) could play with other players who had also chosen that faction so you could take down an enemy battleship and then it wouldn't be limited to clans/guilds/regiments. Public event in space combat! What do you think?

  • yeah, I've never played Battlefront though I wish I could. EA is making Battlefield 3 so thats a plus. Why limit it to one ship? what if it was an entire armada? Faction ships could join other factions to combat the armada and win. The enemy of your enemy is your friend after all. But I like your idea a lot, being able to customize it with better weaponry, hanger space, and so on.

  • That's not a bad idea but you're talking about some really large clans to pull off entire battleships. This could almost be a whole other game

  • sadly this is true. It would have to be like Planetside 2 almost and devote its entire capacity to simply multiplayer. But a guy can dream after all. Eventually, I think a game will pull something like this off.

  • Yeah I hope so. I think the big problem is having that many people actually coordinates together. So some are fighting in space others trying to board and those on battleship firing at other battleship and boarding vessels. They could easily switch to ship defenders if boarded. Then of course there is respawning. So here is an idea. Anyone can man cannons on battleship and fly single seat fighters. A boarding ship could be made up of fire teams. One pilot and two manning turrets and the would be multiple place to enter a ship. Kinda of like BF4 in space. I would play that

  • You understand completely. I would only modify the boarding ships only slightly. Instead of fire team ships, lets make it a squad sized ships, including the pilot and gunners so lets make it 9. I think that would be a decent size. I think there should be a limit to large guns on a ship as apposed to one for each man. That would be chaotic. So lets also say 8-12 heavy guns on each side of the ship and three times that for other emplacements like anti-air/ anti-fighter.

  • I like the idea of dogfighting in space ..... Warhawk on the PS3 was fantastic for dog fights fast agile attack craft bloody brilliant.. I'm not to keen on having attack craft able to take on ground troops in atmosphere it might be an overkill & lead to "Base -blam!-s" by the more dominant side with there spacecraft...

  • Sorry I've been away for four days, so I haven't had time to answer these posts. Maybe not a whole star fleet like not 1,000s, but maybe a dozen. Seriously I don't think their servers could hold that many players (Planetside 2 proves me wrong, though :), but anyhow it might be best to have a smaller armada of maybe 5-6 ships on each side, maybe more? Maybe if you were in a clan, then you could have your clan/guild/regiment symbol [b]and[/b] the faction's symbol on the broadside or elsewhere on your ship (wherever Bungie chose to put the emblems).
