===New Competitive Multiplayer===

The [[Crucible]] functions differently in Destiny 2. All game modes feature two teams of four for every game mode. In-game, there is a new HUD that gives the player information on the enemy team, like when their [[Super]] is ready, or when and where they picked up ammo for their power weapons. There are also brand new maps and game modes. One of the new game modes, for example, is called [[Countdown]], which is the first attack-defend game mode in the Crucible, similar to Call of Duty's Search and Destroy. The radar is also modified, with the detection radius being fixed, as opposed to it scanning until it finds an enemy. Modes/Playlists:

Kinetic guns had no elemental attribute, otherwise functioning exactly as energy weapons, which were charged with [[Void]], [[Solar]] or [[Arc]] light. Some special weapons in ''Destiny'', like [[fusion rifle]]s and [[sniper rifle]]s were moved into the power category.
