    Destiny: The Taken King director defends £40 expansion price tag.

    Although "defends" should probably be in quotes.

    was Destiny cheaper in Europe or something because the interviewer keeps saying that the taken king is "the same price as the base game" which.. no it's not.

    £40 is close to a full price game, they're usually 45 I think. It's not the same price but it's close enough for people to be unhappy

    Destiny got pretty widespread price cuts down to $40 or less fairly quickly. Maybe they are referring to that?

    The stuff exclusive to the base game + expansion bundle (which is $80) is super, super shitty.

    Last I checked we do. We know how many strikes, maps, raids, missions and such come with TTK due to that leaked pic long ago. Here it is:

    12 Story missions
    4 Strikes
    1 Raid,
    1 Patrol Area
    6 PvP Maps
    1 New subclasses per class
    2 new weapon types

    Base game had:

    19 Story missions
    5 Strikes
    1 Raid
    4 Patrol Areas
    8 PVP maps
    2 subclasses per class
    9 Weapon types

  • HermanoHermano Registered User regular
    Oh! Well never mind then, those leaks have been pretty spot on so far


    PSN- AHermano
  • JusticeforPlutoJusticeforPluto Registered User regular
    Oh and the Season Pass gave use for $35:

    8 Story Missions
    2 Strikes
    1 Raid
    1 Arena (Poe)
    1 Social Area (Reef)
    6 PVP maps
    1 Weapon Type (sidearms)

    Sooo, now I feel better about TTKs price but feel bad about the Season Pass.

    Well, that does seem pretty weird to me then, if a 60 dollar new game costs 45 euros there but a 40 dollar DLC also costs 40 euros

    $40 is definitely not 40 euros, tho

    Yeah uh

    Even though that interview is with a Bungie development lead, I'm pretty sure he's not the one making these kinds of pricing decisions

    And he's probably not in a position to pass the buck to Activision, either

    Either way it's a pretty good deal for the U.S. but that definitely sucks about the European pricing

    The exclusive stuff is shitty anyway you slice it

  • BalefuegoBalefuego Registered User regular
    but I would totally be fine with that leaked list, particularly since we already know we are getting new pvp modes on top of that

    the trend of european customers paying more because they just change dollar signs to euro signs is something that really bums me out

    Look no one cares about your made up money. We'll use USD prices and you'll like it!

    I mean I already knew it was the case thanks to reviews but

    It's nice to play Arkham Knight, looking as good as it does, running at a consistent framerate

    Same on Xbox One. Looks like the PC port isn't doing so hot though.

    No I don't.

    Do I HAVE to download the day 1 patch before I start playing

    Cause PSN's wonderful download speeds tell me it's going to be 13 hours until it's done

    6F32U1X.png
  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    ...for 3.5 gigs?

    I wonder if PSN's just chugging right now due to people downloading that patch

    I downloaded the whole game, all the DLC and the day one update yesterday in less than two hours

    My internet is capable but it ain't blazing

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    It said 35 minutes for a while and then switched to 13 hours

    It says 15 hours now

    I downloaded the entirety of Witcher 3 in about an hour and a half

    PSN servers are hella random even on release days

    sometimes they balla, sometimes they holla

    liEt3nH.png
  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    It turns out yes, yes you do need the patch

    Because otherwise the game freezes in an early cutscene

    So I guess I'm not going to get to play this tonight

    6F32U1X.png
  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    And now trying to close the game locked up my whole console and I had to unplug it from the wall

    Download that patch

    After unplugging my console, I was stuck in a Safe Mode loop and had to reset to factory defaults to even be able to get back to the XMB

    I was supposed to lose all my installed stuff, but I didn't

    And this is why you always download patches

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    Also probably buy digital now?

    Cause man I would've avoided alllllllllll of this if I just got it digitally, now that there's preloading

    I can say "but I wanna save hard drive space!" but it still installs 50 gigs if you've got the disk anyway

  • I needed anime to post.I needed anime to post. boom Registered User regular
    yeah the amount of data i have on my ps4 for games that i have the disc for is kind of stupid

    they're basically just keys to unlock the game door at this point

    The only reasons to not buy digital is if you care about used games, don't mind waiting a day or two, or have internet issues (but with these patches...)

    Digital future!

    No I don't.

    I got batman on pc and given how hitchy it's being I'm kinda regretting it

    My computer blows the recommended specs out of the water but no matter how far I turn the graphics down the game hitches and hiccups every once in a while
