Support NeoGAF

[ElRenoRaven]

Hi there. Sorry if I'm intruding into your thread. But I would very much like to talk to Valentinus or PsychoRaven. Whoever is it that will be in charge of DestinyGAF.

I sent Raven a PM yesterday. It must haven't gone through, since I didn't get anything back yet.

So Raven, or whoever else is in charge. (I'm assuming its him based on things the last few days) please PM me and we should discuss this fairly.

Thank you.

You'll have to talk to whoever is in charge. I'm guessing that' Valentinus. I'm just sitting back and chilling. I never did get any PM the other day though. So gaf must have burped or something. Like I said to everyone here. It's all good. Same goes for you guys over there. It's all cool. I wish both groups a ton of luck. It's ultimately about the game and playing it and having fun.

 

[Shyakugaun]

Will each class have more than one special attack (L1+R1) ?

That would be me. False Prophet Todd360 at your service.

I demand that you step down shadownet! No negotiations! Only demands here! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yah looks like the focus allows maybe 3 versions of each class. I think the stupid golden gun can be replaced by a cool blade attack if I am reading it correctly.

 

[veloxStrix]

Just spent like 15 minutes getting my GAF avatar as my PSN avatar. xD

This is what happens when I dabble in pixel art.

ALSO, I have a set of Astro A40s and they work beautifully.

It had just occurred to me how many little faces I use when I post. Yikes.

Wait, there are Destiny avatars for PSN now?

I made mine. I used the Retro Bungie shirt as reference, changed the colors, and made it a little more detailed. Then I used the Playstation app to upload it as my avatar.

Ah, ok. I think only you and anyone you shared your real name with can see that, though. Looking at your profile, your avatar is some anime character to me.

Edit- your PSN is catfax, right?

Hi there mate

That's diabolical, Sony. :c I was so excited. I was wondering what was preventing people from putting porn up everywhere. All that excitement.. woosh.

And yes, I am Catfax.

I think you could get it to be your main PSN avatar if you make it your Facebook picture and link your accounts. I don't link my FB account so I'm not 100%, but fairly certain.

Just in case you really want it. And I like it, nice job!

 

[Shadownet]

Hi bro! You are welcome and aren't intruding at all, why would that be? You are just as free to post here as any other gaf member. I think Psycho Raven has declined actually being in charge of organising the GAF group. So it would probably be Valentinus now..

Either way, you are welcome here brother!

Thank you for the warm welcome. I have sent Valentinus a PM. We will be discussing this and try to come to a mutual solution that will satisfy everyone.

Thank you PsychoRaven. I'm talking to him right now. I am with you though, I can't see why both group can't coexist? (DestinyGAF PS4 might need a name change to avoid confusion) but other than that.

Unless a merge can be establish where both Valentinus and I feel comfortable with. I honestly would just like both groups to continue functioning.

I think either you or him said something about Alliances. A feature that let two groups join forces with each other. I would be open to that. If that is the case. That mean DestinyGAF PS4 will be sort of an extension to DestinyGAf without actually having to merge or disband.

 

[Marvel]

Hello Shadow, you're always welcome. As far as I'm concerned we are all Necromorphs made whole by Destiny.

Weird thing with the a40 is I can never get chat audio and game audio balanced well. Chat is either too low or vice versa.

I'm online on PSN right now. I didn't get your PM, I think I'm having the same symptoms as Psycho. I'm available to talk on Chat. Come online. ID: Raishin_Yaya

 

[pokeystaples]

When I checked the what's new section 4 of my friends had played the alpha. Are people just opening it to listen to the title music?

Oh for real?? Damn I wasted time writing that whole thing. I'll get on in 5 mins.

I... I have done this.

 

[Dineren]

Agreed. I can highly recommend the Sony Gold headsets though. People on the other end say they can hear me clearly when I'm using the mic on it. Game audio also sounds great on it, and it's really easy to mute and mix game/chat audio.

Have you had any interference problems with them? I had the Sony PULSE headset and spent hours trying to fix wireless interference issues. I eventually went out and bought some wired Astro A40s, which work great, but I'd rather have a wireless headset.

Didn't know you could do this. Is there any documentation for avatar size? And by app, I take it you mean the ios/android app?

Rai, I just accepted your friend requested and it says you're playing the alpha. You seriously just sitting on the title screen? Lol.

 

[SPACECADET]

The headset you get with the PS4 sucks. Gotta buy a better one.

no kidding, i tried it on for the first time with destiny and it barely stayed in my ear, and when it did the position was in a way that the audio was almost impossible to hear.

Yea I am lol

It seems to only be viewable by you and (maybe? Will test in a sec) people you have revealed your name to.

I tinkered a bit, and it seems like the size is somewhere around 300px by 300px.

And, yes, that app.

 

[The Librarian]

They do sell some discounted PS4s here: http://www.mtcclearance.com/catalog/gaming-consoles-c-4_84.html

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Yeah, it's viewable by people you've revealed your name to. Tested with two of my friends back when that firmware update first went live.

Wishing my PS4 would die right after Beta so I can buy the white version.

 

[PrivateWHudson]

Wishing my PS4 would die right after Beta so I can buy the white version.

I hear you. Although the black blends with my A/V stuff, and I rarely look at it unless I'm putting in a movie. I think I'll be happy with the white controller. My birthday is in August, so I may ask my wife to pre-order the controller and white headset for me. I won't get to unwrap anything on my actual birthday, but it'll be worth it.

 

[Conkerkid11]

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Used PS4s are currently $250 at CowBoom with this coupon: 14599752

They're going in and out of stock though.

I hear there's a deal at GameStop where you can trade in a used PS4 for nearly $400 credit toward a PS4 or Xbox One?

Enjoy your Birthday goodies! I need to buy a headset myself actually, still using the garbage one that came with my PS4 haha!

Wrong country for me I'm afraid

 

[WarpathDC]

I don't know about you all but I was going to get about 600 bucks in games this fall. Destiny has saved me a bit of money knowing that it will now consume most of my free time.

 

[MADGAME]

I was at $480, but then Destiny snapped it's fingers in a Z motion and said nuh-uh girlfriend.

You guys spend too much on games.

– Destiny
– The Master Chief Collection
– Sunset Overdrive
– Evolve

That's it for me. Oh, and another Xbox One. ;(

 

[broony]

For me:
Destiny
Driveclub
Hotline Miami 2
Alien isolation
Maybe Evolve

 

[Jdnathan11]

Um, how da heck can you drop that kind of cake??? What games where on your radar. Didn't know that many good games was coming out. Late

No problems whatsoever. But I imagine if you're getting interference that you might have some devices around that I don't.

I... I have done this.

I redownloaded it hoping for something then just let the music play for a hot minute.

 

[MADGAME]

I don't normally spend much at all, and some of the 8 games on my list may get re-prioritized. No sense in getting them at launch given the amount of time I will be dumping into Destiny. That number was combined between my gf and I though, so if it gets knocked down from 8 to 4 or 5 between us that's not so bad.

Why another X1? IIRC I read your PS4 was stolen. Did you have an Xbone fall victim also?

 

[Marvel]

After the Alpha I canceled a fair few pre-orders, most of my time will be spent on Destiny and TLOU. Dragon Age and Alien Isolation are on my radar though, hope they're good.

It's very relaxing!

 

[Jdnathan11]

Im a cheap bastard so destiny and cod for me. Boo yah !! Not much time to play with life and such..

My Playstation 4 and my Xbox One were both stolen.
