Destiny

Yeah - now going on the forums, people are complaining about having to pay for the expansion. Some people stupidly believe the existence of silver will mean all DLC is free. I've bought one dance which is like £4 - even if all TTK players bought 3 that's still only £12 vs. a 'small' DLC like HOW or TDB which cost £20 or TTK which cost £40.
So basically, complaints due to lack of PVE, now complaints it won't be free (although I think the one in Spring will be)

I read the small update notes, it sounds like the new PvE content may just be old stuff made more difficult? Like, level 40 Crota, for example? The reason I've made that assumption is because of the word "replayability" when they mentioned Spring PvE content.

 

[Brand86]

Possibly. Although a LOT of people have been asking for that so I would be sort of happy. We will see.
Fancy running a raid tonight anyway? I need to do my hunter still

Yeah I can come on mate. I've only done the one run, not even killed Oryx yet. I haven't been on for the past few days, been going to bed early with the Mrs (she's not been well)

 

[Pint]

Well I still haven't killed oryx yet. Had to leave yet again when we got to the stage. I've only run the raid twice and I was having to tell people what to do as they didn't understand, it's not that hard to understand the mechanics ffs. I was even first across the ship jumping puzzle on my first attempt.

You'd be miles behind me on the ship puzzle

Don't say that Mark, my mrs has been ill and constantly moaning and I told her to man up!

Haha, don't worry mate, probably 2 different illnesses!

 

[Brand86]

Hers is a bad cold...if I had one I'd get zero sympathy!

There you go, keep playing the "man up" card! To be honest, I did partly go to bed at the same time as I was f**king exhausted!

 

[Brand86]

i went to bed early last night. I was considering doing a raid but Highborn wanted to do it so decided to watch some Family Guy and have a nice relaxing evening instead!

Haha, I don't blame you! If we are raiding tonight, it needs to be a relaxing affair!

 

[Brand86]

Best is up for it and whoever else. I've done 1 complete run, an Oryx CP on my other titan and the totem CP on my hunter. Hopefully be on around 9

 

[Marc.]

Well Oryx and another run would be good. I'll be on about 9 too

 

[Brand86]

Sweet as flip

 

[Pint]

Ive managed to end up with loads of treasure keys so have been running easy through level 28 PoE. Does anyone know if you can get Y2 exotics from it as I've only had Y1 legendaries. Oh and a shed load of strange coins and motes which have been useful.

 

[Brand86]

Only y1 mate as POE is considered (annoyingly) y1 content and hasn't been updated.
Check out these concept ghost shells this guy created - pretty awesome!

[Pint]

Ffs. Breezed through the raid. On round 4 on oryx and then some idiot walked off his platform.

Typically I then ran out of time and had to leave.

 

[Marc.]

LOL, get used to that. @Brand86 and I had a very similar experience last night!

 

[Pint]

f**king infuriating. I still haven't killed oryx.

Also up to 41 cal I died fragments. Don't know where the last few are to get the malice quest.

 

[Gorms]

How did you guys do with Crimson Doubles? My second game in I got a 320 chocolate ghost, I couldn't beleave it. In total I had around 10 ghosts drop.

I also got reported for "cheating"... But I don't think it will stick. I technically didn't do anything wrong... I was just using a perk to its full pertential.

 

[Pint]

I didn't play any. Wish I had as I only found out about the 320 drops last night!

 

[Cookie]

I went on Destiny earlier for like 20 minutes. It felt weird. I think the addiction is long broken now.

I completed my bounties, didn't get anything worthwhile though. Best I've ever done in PvP though (which isn't saying much).

I tried Trials out for the first time on Monday. I hated it!

 

[Gorms]

Rusted was a horrible trials map, think i played about 5 games then just gave up.

The addiction is gone for me for now. I will pop on for trials if the map is good but thats about it.

 

[Brand86]

I just like collecting stuff but don't feel compelled to play as much - mainly because stuff generally takes so long.
I am just happy to slowly work towards grimoire and faction rep, finding PVP quite fun playing new modes. Inferno control was one I'd not played before and it sucked

 

[Pint]

I'm also trying to get faction rep. Up to about 16 I think.

 

[Brand86]

All of mine are 30+ now...but spent everything I had to get that high! All my motes and coins are GONE

 

[Pint]

Haha. I won't allow myself to go below 100 motes. Is it at 30 you get the exotic?

 

[Munson]

I played Crimson Days and really enjoyed it. Then it got ruined by knob heads jumping off the map just to get the game over as quickly as possible. Im not sure how they thought other players would chip away at the bounties if their opponents kept jumping off the map like twelve year olds.

Although how Bungie didn't see the whole thing coming is a mystery. They completely screwed up the whole event. Embarrassing. But then this is Destiny we're talking about.

 

[Cookie]

I don't understand how they're going to keep it going for another 6 months on new DLC hype alone

 

[Gorms]

I can't see it personally... and I tend to play pvp more than pve so this must be mega painful for people that don't. I still need to complete the arc subclass on my warlock so that will give me something to do for 20 mins. I might also finish off my gunsmith levels. They said they are going to increase the light level in spring but How will this work? Will we just raid for 340 gear?

My vault is now full, I don't know what else I can do, I have 46 exotic engrams and 60+ legendary ones. I even had to use 10 exotic helmet engrams the other day to get the ram. Like yourself I think I'm going to start to stash resources.

 

[Brand86]

I think the exp. level will increase maybe to 45 (irrelevant) and the light level will go up. Like you said, unless they introduce another end game activity it will be pretty lame. I'm not keen on doing more King's Fall. I like it as a raid but want something new.

I could do with some more exotics to breakdown, I have less than 10 shards left now! Going to start collecting engrams for the update though

 

[Pint]

It took me 50+ attempts last night to get the scent of the worm calcified fragment. I'm on 44 now. All the others I'm missing are either challenge mode raid or T3 court.

 

[Pint]

Managed to 2 man the T3 and now I have my ToM.

 

[Marc.]

Congrats mate - it's an epic weapon for the last 2 raid bosses.

 

[Brand86]

Decent. You need to get 50 though...to receive a very average shader!!!

I haven't bothered to get the last one I need

 

[Pint]

How the f**k do I get past 309? I have all 310 gear except for my ghost at 309 and my Titan mark at 303.

 

[Marc.]

Keep running the hard raid.
