Destiny 2: Was in Xurs Namen sind „maßgeschneiderte PC-Features?“

The upcoming SF-MMO shooter Destiny 2 is set to receive features tailored specifically for PC. What could that possibly mean in Xur’s name?

We are currently in the fun phase where we receive no information, only marketing promises about Destiny 2 to drive up pre-sales even higher. And they are already gigantic.

The latest marketing statement came from Activision’s Eric Hirshberg: “The PC version of Destiny 2 is said to have tailored features,” it is stated. “They are also supposed to be significant.

We wondered what could be behind this and present you with some possibilities.

Finding groups in Destiny 2 should happen “in-game,” not on Facebook – Chat would be nice

Destiny 1 mainly relied on Facebook groups and specific websites to clarify “finding groups ” in the game. Groups for 3-player instances could be found through automatic matchmaking, but for raids or the elite PvP, the Trials of Osiris, you had to rely on outside help.

Bungie has said: Yes, that’s intended. We want well-coordinated teams to go in, preferably with voice chat.

However, it is suspected that reasons such as: “We don’t want to overload the console interface” might apply.

On PC, a “group search tool” along with a proper in-game chat would be standard. One should be able to find groups for all activities in-game, not just for some.

That would be a “tailored” and “significant” feature for the PC version.

Players want to customize Destiny 2 to their needs – Field-of-View slider, Aim Assist, and more

A typical thing that PC gamers are used to is, tailoring the gaming experience to their needs.

For console gamers, the game is standardized, while PC allows the game to be adjusted to personal preferences. This includes being able to adjust the resolution and the detail level of the graphics.

Some wish for settings for the “Field of View” or want to determine themselves where, for example, the crosshair is located.

There could also be settings for gameplay, such as whether the “aim assist” in Destiny 2 is activated or not.

A step further would be “interface modifications” and “tools”. In PC MMOs like World of Warcraft, this is a huge deal with damage meters, boss helpers, and much more.

If Destiny 2 were customizable on PC in as many ways as possible, it would certainly also be a “tailored and significant feature.”

An outstanding anti-cheat tool

Many console players fear, Destiny 2 could become a “paradise for cheaters” on PC, because Bungie has demonstrated in the past that they take a long time to respond to exploits.

A truly effective anti-cheat tool that enables fair play would not be sexy, but tailored and practical.

Not tailored, but still practical: Dedicated Servers

There are a number of changes that PC gamers desire that would also benefit console players.

The main wish here is clear: “Dedicated Servers” to manage the dreaded lag in Destiny 2. This was already requested in Destiny 1 and at least not ruled out.

That would be a feature that would truly be “significant” and with which Activision could gather many points in advance. Whether it will actually come is written in the stars. Perhaps we will receive our first answers on May 18. Here is a gameplay reveal for Destiny 2 scheduled.

What do you think? What would be “tailored and significant features” for you?
