Destiny Public BETA [PS4 / PS3 / 360 / XBO] review

[nakamura]

The RPG elements are indeed superbly done.

Anyone tried both x1 and PS4 versions yet? How do they compare?

I have Xbone/PS4, the xbox version visually looks lacking but its reported to be running at 900p so it doesn't look as sharp as the PS4 version. Biggest surprise for me is the Xbox controller doesn't feel as responsive as the PS4 pad.
On a plus side for the Xbox, its whisper quiet, my poor PS4 fan is making a heck of a noise.

For me the PS4 wins on Graphics which is noticeably sharper in the beta.
I enjoyed playing on Xbox One pad with the noticably clearer chat though.

The myltiplayer pvp does nothing for me, despite kinda feeling like Halo.

I've been doing a few tests with my PS4 as I'm getting a bit concerned the fan's running to high and it won't last long. Make sure you have plenty of space around it, especially at the back and above.

I'm having fun with it so far although I did play the Alpha to so knew what it was like. I have no problem with the versus stuff being pretty much Halo. I think it really does well of blending things like Borderlands and Mass Effect but staying within the format that Bungie have been now famous for.

Beta open to everyone: http://technewsdb.com/destiny-beta-n...60-and-ps4ps3/

WOW This lovely . Nothing new or stuff were having seen before but everything is done so well and spot on . Just love the sheer scope and vastness of the game . Really do feel like you're taking part in a massive epic Sc-Fi blockbuster , loving the music and lighting effects too .

This game is going to be a massive seller

This is what people misunderstand when developing games though, it's not about cloning a game or even about creating something completely new it's about the evolution of what went previously. It's not a massive leap from Halo but all the bits they have improved on make it feel fresh. I think Halo 4 missed the mark because they fundamentally changed some of core experience and while the visuals were improved it lost a lot of the open world feel and changed things that makes a Halo game (outside of the characters)

had anther go of MP, at the moment defo not for me. Some guys getting 30+ kills the rest at single figures. Is it gun or connection making the difference?

Its more the skill+killer setups based around maximum damage in one shot and effective use of the radar being used on on halo mp newbies.

am downloading the PS3 beta. Tried to stay away from reading or hearing about it so I don't bring anything I hear into my view of the game

I don't think it's that. The problem, as always, is players going for capture points get hammered, players going for k/d hang back for the floaty mega-tank or float to tops of buildings and camp. End of match scores are consistent like that, e.g.: 25 kills, 0 captures. Same as battlefield.

Just trying the PS3 version for the laughs and to my surprise my PS4 character is available to play, which is handy as my PS3 is hooked up in the bedroom. After playing PS4 version I'm actually quite surprised how well it holds up on PS3. It's just lower res and a little washed out, but still looks half decent It's a pity this game isn't a PSN cross buy title.
