Can't lie, those numbers on Steam aren't suggestive of a big launch at all.
Me and my bro was killing shyt as Destroyer
+ The graphics & art direction is fukking beautiful, especially on PS5 Pro
+ The gunplay is A1...definitely a Bungie game.
- Menus are complete ASS and way too difficult to figure out.
- TTK is way too quick especially when solo
I'm actually fukking with this overall and having a better time playing solo than with randoms.
Copped.

After playing around 20 hours with my bro, @EarlyEarly @Deezay here are a few of my takeaways. I will start with my cons first.
- This game begs to have a practice playground/gun range. There is too much variation with builds to just go test this out in the field all willy.
- Meds and Shields are way too scarce, those depleted ones drop well but those are more suitable to be used in a pinch. Lore wise the UESC have shields, so they should drop shields, when you drop them. Meds should be located in first aid locations.
- The world is incredibly detailed like all the abandoned vehicles and building parts yet there are too many little places in between the Place of Interest that have no loot at all. I feel like it wasn’t like that when I tested the game in October.
- The contracts are really good but some of them need to add a few more hints. We were spending too much time trying to find the location of the exact thing we need to interface with.
- The default controller settings are ass. As far as sensitivity. Please adjust yours to your liking, another reason a playground or gun range would be great, so can play around with the setting to get them right.
- The world and art style are really incredible, it really makes the game standout. The weather effects are top notch and all the different textures surfaces look amazing.
- The gunplay is sublime. The weight, the different reload animations, I haven’t found a bad gun yet. Granted I haven’t acquired all of them.
- Gunfights have to be some of this best in recent memory for me. BF6 is the most recent as well. The rotations strats will have you surprising your opponents. I haven’t experienced a gunfight yet where even if I lost did I feel I was cheesed, it’s early though.
- I’m not seeing the UI complaints, in match HUD has all relevant information plus you can toggle and close the contract menu in the upper right corner with the touch pad on PS5. Maybe the cursor reliance is what folks are talking about. I do wish we can speed that up
- The Factions upgrades and armory are great additions to buffing up your classes and vault. I like that items can be barter/traded for get them sparkleafs brehs for the meds.
- The contracts (some) do add that single player game level immersion where you have to do a few things before actually complete it. Like turning on the power to the building, creep by tripmines and lasers, infiltrating the building by roof and tunnels, it’s dope.
- The interplay in crews between the shells is layered which really adds to the builds. Me and my bro kept running the same shell just specced different and it help us in so many ways.

The gameplay is good, but the gameplay loop is trash. I don't get it. I'll keep playing but its doubtful I buy this.

I may try it in after the Marathon beta is over. But the art direction in Marathon is so amazing. I just love it.
Nah, dawg you supposed to be working towards the progression of your faction standing and your classes base stats.
What’s your Bungie Tag?
Nice breakdown of the game
All downed enemies should at the very least drop ammo.
I'm running outta ammo way too much and its way too scarce across the map.

Doing better pre-orders wise on Steam, but not on PSN.
it will prob carve out a decent community
This is a funny simplification, but I get it from what I've seen of the gameplay. It seems negatively repetitive, IMO.
I'll keep looking as time progresses. Maybe they'll find a way to jazz it up.
