Great value if you play it that much.
Threw issue I had is when I randomly felt like firing up d1 after along absence to find some of the game was no longer accessible. Stuff I paid for.

And other parts were way to hard for a level 20... You were pretty much forced to upgrade if you wanted to continue playing the game.

I get its a good game with a huge following but its a fucking rip. I wish it wasn't so popular so they would rethink how out is structured

Might give the PC version a try. Anyone else?
$59 @ JB seems the best I can find.

Do not use any overlays in Destiny, that will guarantee you a permanent ban.

https://www.reddit.com/r/destiny2/comme ... h=244fd966" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
There have been tons of reports of people getting banned for using the following software on PC:
Game Capture Mode in:
OBS
XSPLIT
Overlays in:
Fraps
Mumble
Discord
Hardware monitoring Software:
MSI Afterburner
EVGA Precision XOC
If these software's are running, you will get banned.
https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/46101" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Edit: Or any other software that has code injection.
Edit 2:
According to the latest information from Bunjie, ALL BANS ARE PERMANENT. You cannot dispute your claim either according to the link below dated 10/23/2017.

One of the community managers has said the bans aren't due to third party software use, but Bungie hasn't offered an explanation yet. They're handling this pretty poorly so far. One commenter in that post lestat linked to bought a new laptop, installed Destiny 2, and was banned within 5 minutes of starting. Others have reported running the game in windowed mode (or on a different monitor) and being able to use some of the software Bungie has listed as problematic alongside D2 just fine. It's really inconsistent.

Bans are permanent in that they ordinarily won't be reversed, but they're very rarely indefinite. You'd have to assume some exceptions will be made here, as this is a pretty major cock-up that seems to have affected a lot of would-be players. I know PC gamers have a penchant for poking around and messing with things, but surely they can't all be running software that injects code into Destiny 2, or otherwise acting against the terms of service.

Meanwhile, players that were intentionally banned for cheating during Trials of the Nine only copped a two week ban... and Trials was taken down for 2 weeks to address the issue anyway, so essentially everyone got banned. :roll:

Looks like a lot of affected players have been unbanned now. What a clusterfuck.

So, all y'all PC players stuck at power level 265 yet? :D

Pro tip that I wish I knew before playing: If you're a Hunter, do not unlock the last perk on the bottom tree for Nightstalker, or the last perk on the top tree for Gunslinger. The Hunter is already in a pretty bad place at the moment, and sadly unlocking those perks is irreversible, and makes the respective subclasses even worse. Hoping it gets a look-in soon, I like the Hunter but it sucks nuts compared to my Titan and Warlock. At least in Destiny 1 they had the fashion game on lock, they've really let themselves go.

The new Nvidia drivers really have an impact on this game. I was topping out around the 70-85fps mark with ultra settings. Now averaging 140-170fps with dips into the 120fps area in crowded areas. Game looks beautiful. Just grinding through the campaign to get to level 20.

Got this yesterday (superior PC version) courtesy of a code from Rorschach.

Fucking loving the hell out of it so far! Looks incredible on the big screen - all settings max, 4K HDR 60fps no problem.

It's giving me PSO vibes which makes me happy.

It's just that it had huge PSO vibes too. Destiny is pretty much PSO: Halo Edition.

PUBG actually looks pretty good - particularly the new desert map, just has frame rate issues and poor animation.

I played the PS4 demo but 30fps shooters were off the menu as the original Destiny wasn't long after I built my first uber PC.
