Rumor: Destiny 2 Will Be Arriving in September
A couple of Italian posters show a proposed release date and a beta signup for Destiny 2.
We know Destiny 2 is coming, as both Bungie and Activision have made it clear that a sequel to the popular shooter is in the works. But what looks like leaked posters from an Italian retailer give us a release date of September 8, and a possible beta before that.
Rumors have already started circulating that an announcement will be coming sometime today, although both developer and publisher have been mum so far. The release date could be the European street date–September 8 is a Friday, while most North American games are released on Tuesday. One poster is from GameStop Italy talking about the beta, while the other with the release date shows that Destiny 2 will still be a PlayStation 4 title.
Activision has said previously that Destiny 2 was on schedule for a fall launch, and that the new game will have a broader appeal to bring in more fans while still keeping the current ones engaged. The bad news for current players is that they will be able to carry their Destiny characters over to the sequel in name and appearance only, as all powers and inventory will be wiped. Also, the game is wrapping up its live events with the Age of Triumph, coming on March 28. The launch trailer is below.
Destiny is currently on Xbox One and PS4, while Destiny 2 will add PC as a platform.

Destiny on pc i wonder how much more abuse there would be. The console folks got to abuse some things and we had to resort to using separate websites for in game events.
I can imagine pc folks will find abuse so quick that console folks either get to abuse it forever until a major patch hits or maybe they can hotfix.
Bungee left many abuses in the game for too long.-

All of this stuff has been addressed pretty well in Destiny these days. I think people would be shocked at how different the game is.
They have learned so much from all of this, and while they still aren't perfect (particularly with game balance challenges), there is a lot of hope for Destiny 2. I really don't think the types of things you mentioned are a concern.
One of the biggest problems that they need to solve is the fact that the game relies too heavily on external resources to figure out the game. Then there is the whole grimoire thing. -
