Typically my wife and I wait until the first DLC drops, as it always includes a major patch to fix a lot of the launch issues. We got D2 “free” for buying 2x Ryzen cpus (R 2600x + R7 2700x), but we’re still heavy into Far Cry 5 & MH World (and civ6 for her, and I can finally play Witcher 3 at more than 40fps lol), so…

Played some more last night on pc, had these same sound issues, missions borking and couldn't be completed, etc. Though I will say I had a lot of fun as it was good Division game play that I liked in D1.

Except I live in Idaho, a HUGE Mormon influenced state. And Mormons, for all of their (real or perceived) faults, are almost always onboard with science, and they vaccinate their kids. They groom these kids to grow up and go on a mission to very underdeveloped places where diseases that are almost rumor in places like…

My biggest issue is that almost all of these assholes are screaming about vaccines being evil yet they've all had the vaccine themselves and never had to worry about the diseases that are now making a comeback.

We’re on pc, but I’ve seen both ubi and reddit forums full of fire and ire for ps4 and xbone as well. It works well for some, not so well for others.

Like Anthem, D2 is a hot mess still. Couldn’t get past the character creation screen until about an hour ago, and it plays just as badly in terms of optimization and sluggish feel as Anthem’s two “demos.” It’s messy, bulky, and has little of the feel of D1 (wife and I have about 1500 combined hours in D1).

Shopping right now for a replacement for my wife’s 970 (I bought a 1080 a year ago for $400, was a steal when they were $700+). R7 looks good, but our budget is in the sub-400 range, so it looks like a 2060 for her ($349, basically matches my 1080's performance).

Wife and I bought it last week from Uplay since it was $15 (spent my $5 gift @ Steam to buy MH World for us, so now we have 2 coop games to play together until Division 2 & Anthem are a few months old and have some major patches).

Huh, you must have played an alternate universe Anthem because I did more than just run here to kill enemies then run somewhere else to kill enemies.

Literally? No. Looks nothing like Destiny, plays nothing like Destiny.

Played both weekends, and I would says it's closer to The Division than Diablo or WF. I'm interested enough that I'll pick it up when it's $10 or so (Division is $5 now in Uplay store lol).

Yep, agree on all points. It’s proof (to me, anyway) that this is a console-first, pc-afterthought design. At least Destiny UI for PC was altered for us lowly mouse-kb plebes.

Thought the same thing after last week’s disaster demo. This week, totally different since I actually got to play and found a way to make flying feel good (swimming is still worse than an exploded anal fistula after drinking hot sauce).

This. It's like fucking inception-level shit in the menus on pc.

Had this and many other issues last week during vip demo (lol, okay bioware). Tonight got dc’d first mission,, but then no issues at all for the next 5 hours.

I thought same thing until I got into it for a few hours tonight. Got all blue rare gear and learned how to combo (and how to use my “super” better) and suddenly it was a hell of a lot better. Get a good squad and it’s even better, especially when you synergize with other javelin classes.

Devs have said it is primarily a coop game for 4-player parties, but it has at least 6 difficulty levels (easy up to Grandmaster 3 so far, sort of like Diablo torment levels), and for sure you can solo it on normal difficulty (I couldn't beat the stronghold tonight by myself, but me and one other random did as a 2 man…

After finally getting some actual time on on it tonight, without crashes or major bugs, it’s turning out to be pretty fun, and I’ve only tried the Ranger javelin so far. Got all blues (I think legendary gear is disabled in the demo) and learned how to combo attack. Suddenly it’s a lot more fun and engaging, and I can…

Titan with Insurmountable Skullfort helm is the best!

Actually, it is your fault. Same is it is mine that I get into grindy games.
