DUST Search - DUST 514 vs Destiny

How's everyone feel about this matchup?
DUST has a dedicated team, I'd say the same about Bungie. Bungie has a HUGE level of expertise over DUST's team on shooters. Both have customization while Destiny seems to have the upper hand with customizable appearance vehicles and 3rd person player view in safe zones (to admire your custom armor and colors).
I love that Destiny has space flight and combat, and that it's action oriented, not click click internal dice roll blah blah blah.

Through the breakdown and when you consider the stunning graphics Destiny is showing I'm leaning more towards it. More experienced team for that genre, more customization, more features (including PvE). DUST is fun and all but with games like that coming this holiday season they'll really have to bring their game up a notch or they'll be offering low quality graphics, feature lacking versions of new games designed for a beast of a console.

So here's hoping DUST can pick it up to at least match the upcoming titles since persistant world shooters seems to be the new big thing.

Bungie is a great game maker marathon, Myth, Oni, and of course halo...and i suspect Destiny will be a great game. That said the Destiny universe does not have ships i can board and kill everyone in them...at least as far as I can tell....Dust the game you can;t do that either but at least the universe could allow for it. Also i like Dust's more hard Sci fi universe which does not have magic (Destiny look like it will) and no stupid alien races.

You played Pathways into Darkness and Marathon? Quote: more expansions for the next 10 years or so, like EVE, it's going to last longer than Destiny. FYI Halo is older then EvE and Bungie is older then CCP. Repeating that 10 year BS really does not cut the mustard.

No matter who made it. Still odds are Bungie will make a solid game. But yeah don;t pre-order it....that is just asking for bad things to happen to you.
