Just Torrent it (Destiny)

Let's see... I can get mad at Blizzard for not being willing to buy enough bandwidth to distribute new games to millions of people (when that bandwidth is really only needed at launch)... or I can participate in the solution by being part of a PTP network that distributes the game to everyone with a much smaller load on any one source (and gets me the final product quicker, to boot!). I'm gonna assume that users have SOME control over the client (as they would with any standard bittorrent client), so that nobody with a bandwidth cap gets totally hosed by serving up terabytes of someone else's game. If that assumption is wrong, I guess you have a point... but if it's not, you're being awfully petty.

On the old ones at least you could turn off peer downloading so you were JUST downloading from Blizzard.
