Lol oh yea an the voice guy does a fucking lazy ass job , like shesh lool

 

[Jolkien]

Truth, if the want balance they are gonna need to be nerfed. Gonna max out the Hunter when I get home from work to see what they are about. Right now Warlocks come off as the weakest.

Love this fucking game though. I just hope they have more of a plot then the Alpha shows.

Lol of course there'll be a lot more plot than they showed. You only witness a short lvl 4 story mission. The story will unfold throughout the journey to max level and the story will continue throughout DLC and Destiny 2 etc.

 

[Nightengale]

There is a hidden place underneath some downed Helicopters with a dead ghost. It's near one of those Hive spires/snips(?). There is a battle between the Hive and Fallen going on too.

I love how we're basically only to able to define areas within the game with these descriptions.

Were there a couple of Wizards in there? That might be the place i was talking about.

Like I legit thought that voice was a place holder. The whole concept of the Ghost is just like a knock off Cortana.

 

[everyday math]

Nope. Not in the hole.

Hive Knight with a sword.

I love how we're basically only to able to define areas within the game with these descriptions.

I can't remember the name locations.

 

[Shyakugaun]

Don't know if that's the place, but there was a hidden path down a cliffside near that had a cave that I saw a... Level 16 Hallowed Knight with a giant sword.

Well, bullets do no damage too to that one too.

Those guys are funny to troll with

Do you work for Bungie? lol joking but I hope your right.

 

[Jolkien]

Nah I don't work for Bungie I wish I did tho ! There's a lot of backstory on their website (The whole premise with Humanity golden age because of the Traveler and the Darkness that destroyed every single Human outpost but the Tower etc..) We already know that we will visit various place on Earth (Old Russia wich we saw in the Alpha, Chicago, etc) We will go on the Moon, Mars and Venus.

We also saw story cutscene in trailers already

 

[DrTeflon]

Anyone wanna party up and play some matches? PSN ID: DrTeflonBR ( i know my ID is stupid, I made it in 2008, sorry)

[Cantthink278]

This game is incredible played for about 8 hours today with my cousin lol multiplayer is awesome love every second of it

 

[Nightengale]

I can't remember the name locations.

Same.

Not that I'll remember how to get there, with the exception of the car-wreck.

 

[Wubbys]

Anyone in this topic reach vanguard level one? There is a rocket launcher I want to buy but I don't know if it is possible just from vanguard challenges from the bulletin.

 

[Dominator]

Played with randoms for the Strike mission and we got SPANKED at the spider tank. But other than that difficult mission (that I will go through and beat tomorrow!), I am absolutely loving this. This is enough content for a beta in my opinion, so I wonder what the beta will have in July.

This is an incredible "alpha", through and through.

I do have a question though. The random missions just keep rotating right? I feel like I've done about 20 and I am still getting ones I haven't done...

 

[fade_]

Anyone know what this is about?

 

[tokyostomp]

This Alpha is better than many full games with all their patches.

But does it have as much content as Ground Zeroes? People paid $29.99 for that tutorial "game".

 

[BenHargrove]

I love bumping into members of the clan.

DestinyGAF represent!!

 

[fedexpeon]

Anyone know what this is about?

You preordered it on the PSN?
I have no clue lol.

 

[Cloudy]

Talk about shitty VA from Dinklage and the MP announcer. Unreal that this was allowed in such a high profile game

 

[disastermouse]

Just but max level with my warlock.


Destiny has me hooked. So good. The atmosphere and sense of exploration is fantastic. The day night cycle is a huge addition, I am glad it made it in.

So satisfying going back to the devil walker and beating it by myself after it gave 3 guardians at once the fight of our lives a few levels back. Weapons feel great, and I love that each weapon can be upgraded and leveled up. Adds a whole new element to the game.



Going to start a Hunter tomorrow.

How do you actually level up the weapons? I can't figure it out.

 

[unbias]

Ya, only thing I cant think of is, nobody wanted to be "that guy" who decided Dinklage phoned it in.

Highlight the weapon(Uncommon weapons or higher) then you should be able to hit Triangle if you leveled up that weapon at all.

 

[molnizzle]

how do i come accross other players? i never met anyone so far. do i need to change some settings?

Sometimes you'll just see a couple running around, but I've never had more than 2 other players in my game at one time (not counting the Tower). It's usually just me by myself, or one other person on the map if I'm lucky.

I've yet to actually complete a public event thing because of this. I'm always the only one doing it.

Bungle really needs to fix the matchmaking.

Talk about shitty VA from Dinklage and the MP announcer. Unreal that this was allowed in such a high profile game

Yeah, it really is unbelievable. Whoever was in charge of this at Bungie should be fired.

 

[tokyostomp]

Anyone know what this is about?

How did you manage that?
I need detailed steps!

 

[Nyteshade517]

I was roaming around and found an enemy Pike to drive. Killing them with their own vehicle only seemed natural.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

How do you join DestinyGAF?

 

[_woLf]

I feel like scout rifles are useless in pvp it's all just auto rifles and shotguns....

I still can't figure out how to send Bungie that they need better voice actors...
Alpha.bungie.net only gives me bug support =/.
Where is the fill out the comment section on how to improve our game part?

But seriously, I hope a dev from Bungie reads some of these comments on GAF...because man, this is some low tier voice actors they have hired.

 

[BumbleChump]

okay this is driving me crazy. At the town, it has that blue question mark on the left side of the screen saying things like "The tower gunsmith can equip you with better weapons."

Ok cool where is he!? I can't find anything here. And the map doesn't help at all.

 

[Jolkien]

How do you join DestinyGAF?

Go to alpha.bungie.net , sign in go to clan. DestinyGAF should be at the top or just search for it. And you'll see a button to join.

North of the Crypto guy, if I remember. Not on atm.

 

[Tiktaalik]

So is this basically FF12 x Halo?

I'm not really sure what the heck is going on. I go down to a planet, there's some "missions" that don't actually direct me anywhere but if I circle around and continuously kill the same randomly generating mobs some percentage in the corner goes up and then the "mission" completes. A little weird, but ok.

I have done a bit of exploring and it's neat to come across cool baddies, some obviously much too strong for you.

Dinklage is actually an amazing actor. It's the dialogue director at Bungie who fucked this up.

I got a PSO+Halo feel with FFXII only with the fact that there are baddies near the lowbie area that can wreck your face off. >.>

Yeah it took me a while to figure this out too. The green "!" mark is where you need to go. You'll see it when you depress the touchpad.

 

[Zukuu]

I want to use shot guns. I want to teleport to my enemies (like ME 2 Vanguards). Can I do that in this game and with which class?

Titan's let you double jump hover charge sorta, and end it with a falcon punch of amazingness... Or you can use a shotgun(but you dont get that slight charge), but the falcon punch he does is awesome.

 

[fedexpeon]

Well, the dialogue director also fucked up one of the most important parts of the game too, pvp arena.
That announcer is straight garbage as well.

I hope they have time to redo these audio soundbites, because boy, this is some amateur work at Bungie for sure.
Picky? Sure, but I love the game too much...and the voice acting....I can't, I just can't describe how much works need to be redone by Bungie.
A superior product like this needs AAA voice acting to match its quality.

 

[drproton]

It's more these maps that pvp in general, I'm guessing. Pulse Rifles seem to be really good too.

 

[Outtrigger888]

The map in this game is huge, I think I found a cave with an Easter egg. I should have taken a pic, now I can't even find it

 

[KOHIPEET]

I love this gamr, but I literally can't win in pvp. Our team loses every single time.

 

[DOWN]

We need Marty...

Marty already did this though...

It's been presumed that he wasn't terminated until after creative production was likely done, no? The voice and audio creation was this likely done for a while now. This is likely the technical polish stretch for the main game while the creative folk move on to DLC.

Eh....a good actor doesn't necessarily mean a good VA. Dude was just reading lines with little emotion from what I've heard

[unbias]

I dunno if I would consider it bad acting...It sounds like he isnt acting but literally just reading the lines. It really comes across as he phoned it in.

 

[Tiktaalik]

Is there a more traditional mission system that I'm missing? I have no idea what's going on...

 

[VanCityGamer]

I got confused by that too, you have to go downstairs and through a tunnel to reach the waypoint. Don't go near the wall, there's some stairs before that that are easy to miss if you're fixated on the green waypoint.

Thanks for the explanation. Yeah, I somehow totally missed going down there at first. I think it's partly because I could see the waypoint through the cracks of the upper door that is closed/blocked off. So I just assumed, "There it is, they must have this objective blocked from the Alpha." But then I didn't understand why they'd be pointing us there. Anyways, it's resolved now haha.

I love this gamr, but I literally can't win in pvp. Our team loses every single time.

Same! We handily lose. Why are people so good at this game? Granted, I'm not very good at multiplayer shooters since I'm mostly a single player guy

 

[Tiktaalik]

Ah just realized there's different types. Story, Strike and Explore.

 

[VanCityGamer]

Eh....a good actor doesn't necessarily mean a good VA. Dude was just reading lines with little emotion from what I've heard

Yeah, but it's hard to know how he was directed. It's possible that since he's an AI of sorts, he was told to speak in a fairly stuff/monotone way.

 

[LiK]

Missions got way too repetitive. Looking forward to seeing how the full game is. I like the look and feel of the game. Not sure I'll play more unless more bros invite me into a party.
