Does anyone have any thoughts on if/how Golden Gun could be made a bit less awkward in PvP? The startup animation felt like a liability since it's not followed my instant death like Titan and Warlock.

I ask because Hunter had my favorite grenades, double jump, and balance between mobility and toughness for Crucible, but the Super wasn't nearly the trump card I had with the other classes.
 
All my blues are armor.

I'd love to see the blue armor. I have the Rare quality shotgun and rocket launcher at the moment.

Hunter's get TRIPLE JUMP later on. That should be fun
 
I'm guessing there won't be, but have Bungie said anything about a loot-trading system?

Nope. Intentional game design choice to make weapons more valuable.

Whenever you implement a trading system into a game, it inherently makes certain weapons more valuable and a significant portion of weapons become "trash" to the majority of the populace.

N is for no survivors down here in the deep blue sea!
 
Damn, were you running Strikes?

I did a couple, but only managed to get green drops. I average 7-8 green drops per strike(lev8), plus the 2 at completion.

However, some of the blues I received from public events in explore mode, and the rest were crafted from the cryptarch. I'm almost at level 5 cryptarch.

Cloak Of The Cosmonaut?
That Hunter came from the Moon.




Look at this gaffer showing off the receipts! haha

What use is showing off if I can't use them? :P

Keeping them in case the vault items transfer over to the retail game. I dismantled a couple of blues in the hope of receiving some armour upgrade parts.
 
Man, there sure is a ton of footage in that Beta trailer that we haven't seen yet. Here's to hoping they didn't just gather random footage to build that thing and a lot of stuff will be unlocked tomorrow!
 
Fuck that I'm not getting lost there. I wish they had a system in place in the game itself.

the easier way to submit a bug report would be this.

1.) always record PS4 gameplay
2.) bug occurs - save video
3.) Trim video to include only the bug
4.) copy to USB
5.) move to Youtube
6.) once finished, supply link of youtube bug report video to Beta Feedback forum

I think Golden Gun is balanced and fine as it is. You trade invulnerability for mobility and versatility. You can snipe people with that thing, as I have done many times and you don't need them to be grouped up to get multiple kills with it. With the combustion upgrade, when you hit a target with Golden Gun, they blow up and kill or damage their teammates around them as well.

With triple jump and blink, I think hunters will be able to dodge Nova Bomb and the Fists Of Havoc.

The supers are pretty balanced as I see it.

Edit: I should clarify I meant invulnerability during activation. I love jumping above a doorway with a person inside of it, only pop my golden gun while out of sight, then fall down golden and ruin their day lol. Although the activation does have a distinct sound so if your'e attentive you can hear.

Speaking of distinct sounds, I know it's been mentioned before, but an audio cue for when your grenade and throwing knife (or equivalent melee) is up again would be very nice.
