I may be going out on a limb, but I'll just leaf this one here.

I'm curious, what type of gun is everyone using? I've taken a huge liking to the Scout Rifles myself though I have yet to find one that does a ton of damage.

Scout rifles definitely, the game greatly rewards head shots. I got a 93 attack one from the vendor at the Tower and it works like a charm.

Also Bungie on Twitter mentioned something happening at 6 PM PST in game?
 
But I hate the emphasis on the end game. I feel like it takes away from the rest of it. These games should be about the journey, man. It should take me like 3 months to reach the cap, at least, not 3 days
I'm with you man. Unfortunately we're in the minority it seems.

I found a pretty badass auto-rifle at the Gunsmith that netted me a kill-spread of 155-62-33 between me and my 2 teammates in Devils' Lair. It puts out an absurd amount of damage.
 
I wasn't too interested in this game but after a couple of days with the alpha I'm sold. I've gone from feeling meh over this game to boarding the Destiny hype train.

Auto Rifle goodness, Found a Galahad C with 101 damage, i end up at the top of the kill list and with the most precise kills every run, the only down side is it its trough bullets.
 
What console game has ever had a FOV slider? There's a reason it's set to what it is now, it affects performance.
Resident Evil 6 after the patch. It didn't seem to affect performance in any way.

I haven't played the Alpha, but if Destiny has a similar FoV to Reach (78) I'll be fine. If it's closer to Halo 3 (60) it will be a bit annoying, but nothing I can't get used to.
 
Probably gonna try to marathon this until servers shut down, cause I know I'll be missing it tomorrow lol. I always run into people out in the wild but never get anyone in the Tower, oh well. Ran into two other people and we basically all just stayed in the same area messing around. One of the public events popped up and we downed it and I got Gold rating.

Also, we finally found the cave where that Hive Ogre resides and put a few hundred shots into it for fun. I saw a loot chest inside but it wouldn't let me open it. Guess it has to do with levels and such.
 
Machine gun power weapon > rocket launcher.

100% agree. Rocket launchers can one-hit most enemies but there is something really satisfying using a machine gun to mow down a bunch of them.

Where did you find that? o:

Or are weapon finds random?
 
So, to upgrade the next level of a power (like advanced grenades, advanced jump, advanced supers) do you just repeat the basic actions lots of times until the higher tier one unlocks or is it level based too?

I got an upgrade on my scout rifle unlocked - not sure how - but nothing beyond the basic top row of upgrades in the status screen.
 
So, when i play on free mode are random players supposed to appear? Just curious, i played for an hour or two yesterday and no one showed up in the session.
 
So this SEN maintenance is not allowing me to connect to PSN at all. So i cant play.

On another note: Where in the world do I find a heavy weapon?
