In the Tower. Those computer terminal towers. These things behind the character:

I can't seem to choose between the Shingen-C and the Cydonia-AR3

While the Cydonia has higher damage and the glass half full attribute increases it further I really like the stability and ROF of the Shingen. I can't seem to choose one over the other.

For IB, I'd go with the Cydonia just because of the higher Atk stat.

I'd go with Cydonia for the stats and because it reminds me of that Muse song.

Magazine, Stability and Rate of Fire >>>

You'll level up the damage in no time so don't worry about it.
 
Welp, I got nothing at all on the first 3 iron banners.

then finally on the forth....

Looks like RNGsus smiles on me after my suffering.

The lag is awful in the game. I will kill someone and then after a short delay I fall over dead. Bungie needs to get it sorted. This game needs dedicated servers for pvp.

Starting to think everyone is right when they say everything is overpowered, but the problem is actually the lag instead :3

I thought Xbox One would have dedis for Destiny and so would the PS4.

They'll both have the same attack once upgraded. The last upgrade slot is always +5 attack rating.

Its pure preference when it comes to weapon type variations.
 
Man, Blind Watch fucking sucks when you're Bravo. The team we played just camped the 2 territories they get immediately and never moved. Their top guy was 10 k/d because nobody could get through that door and the open side had the rest of the team hiding behind the wall using those instant kill grenades.

Moon map is so much better.

How does gaf feel regarding voice communication in destiny?
Click to expand...

I always play with other GAFfers and we have a great time in party chat talking strategy and other stuff. It's even better when the game splits us up in Crucible. I don't really play with randoms, and if I did, I might not talk so much. They might not have mics.

I don't miss it, but would be nice for certain events that require teamwork like Strikes. PvP matches I couldn't care less, it will just be people raging over their death.

I agree.

I would love to be able to tell people to SHOOT THE WALKER'S LEGS kindly and calmly during the public events as well.
 
I'm finding this game immeasurably boring. I feel like every level is the same. You start. There's some bad guys. It opens up slightly and you can find more bad guys, or rush straight towards the objective. Sometimes you have to hold the square button for a second to make a thing happen. Then it gets kinda foggy and it says you can't respawn. Sometimes there are other people there, but they just run around in circles and jump and shoot the air. You then fight a bunch of guys and then a slightly more difficult guy. All while being talked to by a robot with bad voice acting. It's weirdly bad, like it's not "robotic" enough, and not "human" enough, so it just sounds like a really unenthusiastic guy. Then you can go to a hub and run around in circles with XxDixGalore420xX and buy things.

N...no thanks. I'm good.

Are dances tied to race or class?
Click to expand...

race and gender

exo female does several robotic moves.
exo male does a few of shoulder pops and slides.
human female spins around and waves her arms.
human male just moves his arms and legs in a one-two step.
awoken male is similar to the human male, but has more fluid movements and throws in a small hop.
awoken female just kinda moves her arms and one leg up and to the side.

in my opinion, if you're going to make a female awoken, the dance will look better on the Hunter class than the Warlock class because the long robe doesn't flow with the move or balance the weight like the cloak does.

i hope they let us buy more dance moves or switch them.
 
I'm actually starting to get pretty good at the multiplayer after playing a few rounds. But yeah, Point B on the Mars map needs to get adjusted asap.
 
Big kudos to TheNAC. We won several Iron Banner matches sans the last two where we were heavily outnumbered and only barely lost. Your eagerness to get rare items you won't be able to equip struck a chord with me.

Thanks! This is perfect. I think my favorite I've seen is the awoken male. HOORAY!

The point emote is pretty useless right now. They should have it apply to parts of the enemies. "Player X points to Devil Walker's Legs"
Click to expand...

Gotta put on that thinking cap.

When I party up with friends and I find a loot chest, I use the point emote, to bring them over to the chest.
 
Yo I got to the place where you fight the devil walker in the raid, but in explore mode. No one is here to help me fight so i'm scared to go in =/
 
Speaking of balance issues and PVP stuff, how does everyone feel about the multiplayer maps? I really like all of them except for the Venus one, if only because of the some of the dark crevices in the middle allow for easy camping and hiding among shrubbery. Bungie also really has to nerf the vehicles. You can go on a nasty streak from vehicle to super to heavy ammo and back again. Seems almost ridiculous.

Dude! You missed the best part of PvP! Iron Banner was so good! I don't even want to play the "balanced" version after that. Keep that shit for competitive tournaments. Iron banner makes all the exploring, upgrading and legendary weapons worth it, because you get to use them as is.
Click to expand...
Yeah, that's pretty much the worst idea imaginable to me, but am glad you're digging it ;p

I just hope I can find pickup groups that don't look at the PVE content as purely speed-farming runs to harvest PVP weapons. That kind of super-efficient uber-farming mentality drove me to solo and friends only groups in other games. I also wonder how much Iron Banner game modes will figure into driving players towards those expansions and/or other DLC we might see down the line.

Last bit: I was curious from the original alpha why there were vendors who sold rare weapons in exchange for PVP-earned resources when the game was supposed to flatten all of those differences away. Well at least that's no longer a mystery.
