Destiny 2 final PC specs and global roll-out time revealed

Destiny-13

I’m kind of excited for you guys who jam on PC. You’re not just getting Destiny this month: You’re getting your first proper taste of it outside of a beta format. People to meet! Places to go! Cabal to shoot in their ugly fat faces! More than that, I have a feeling that Destiny 2’s Crucible will strive on PC. It’s tight, the four on four format keeps the action manageable and it has a focus on team-based action now, a far cry from its single-player that gives a solo player multiple moments of glory.

October 24 ain’t so far away. But is your PC ready to handle Destiny 2 at its best? As a reminder, here’s what the game looks like with every setting cranked to the max:

And again, with every setting down like a clown with the downs:

If you want to hit that 4K sweet spot, you’re going to need some hefty hardware. Also around 68 gigglebytes of hard drive space to store everything on. Here’s the list of final PC settings, via Bungie:

MINIMUM

CPU: Intel

  • Intel Core i3-3250 3.5 GHz or
  • Intel Pentium G4560 3.5 GHz

CPU: AMD

  • AMD FX-4350 4.2 GHz

GPU: NVidia

  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 2GB
  • GTX 1050 2GB

GPU: AMD

  • AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB

RAM:

  • 6GB

RECOMMENDED

CPU: Intel

  • Intel Core i5-2400 3.4 GHz or
  • i5 7400 3.5 GHz

CPU: AMD

  • AMD Ryzen R5 1600X 3.6 GHz

GPU: NVidia

  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 4GB or
  • GTX 1060 6GB

GPU: AMD

  • AMD R9 390 8GB

RAM:

  • 8GB

So when do the servers go live? Locally, you can expect to log in at 19:00PM, watch the servers crash, swear at your monitor, reset and log back in properly again about five to ten minutes later. Here’s a handy dandy map for you to set your watches to. Click to embiggen:

        Random question. Do you know of any South African groups for this game? A good friend of mine started playing the game again, but is frustrated because all the groups (or whatever you call it) he joins are either French or some other European language, incapable of talking English.

            As Otto mentioned, clans are your best bet

          If it’s clans then there is probably a local clan out there somewhere. But for 99% of the game I just use my clan as a way to access a dojo. Since there is so many locals and peeps right here who play I always have someone online to group up with.

          If it’s anything like Destiny 1 , It’s gonna have lots of expansions at the same price of the base game.

    Don’t know if I want this game anymore now …

    The price just seems to be out weighing what you actually get.
