Destiny 2 will nerf those annoying killer turbines from the beta

Destiny 2's beta showed promise for the final game but there were a few issues with it. One of the most frustrating issues was this platforming section in the game's opening campaign mission, Homecoming. The player must avoid these really fast turbines while attempting to destroy this machine. There are two turbines spinning at high speeds and since the game is an FPS, platforming sections don't really work well.

The section caused tons of frustration for players (including myself who died over 7 times to the spinning machine of death) but Destiny 2's director Luke Smith promised via the Namek vs Saiyan podcast that they've already fixed that section for the final game.

“I was surprised by the turbine, because there’s only one turbine spinning in the shipping game, I was surprised to see two of 'em," Smith said, laughing. "That's a great example of something that we implemented, we found it to be challenging, especially for that opening sequence of the game, and in the shipping game we removed it. There's one spinning turbine instead of two […] Y'know what, I died to it a couple times too."

Smith promises that there won't be such a large difficulty spike at the start of the game like there was in the beta and it'll be much more welcoming in the final game.

"In the beta, for instance, we have a tuning for the game that is very challenging," Smith said. "Myself, a Destiny veteran, [I] was having a hard time with some of the encounters, because it's very thumb-skill intensive. And in the final game players will see that we've dialed some of the intensity and challenge down, certainly in those opening experiences because we want to create a game with Destiny 2 that is a world that pulls you in and helps you learn how to play it, and then finds you people to play with."

Don't worry, you won't have to go through that nightmare again when Destiny 2 releases for Xbox One and PS4 on September 6th, 2017.
