Saw that a few people had a great time playing Destiny through Remote Play. I gave it a shot. Wow control layout was great and zero lag (I was playing through WiFi).

Have i reached maximum character progression? I haven't noticed any change in a while

Possibly. I'm the same.

I have this exact gun, but I have the bonus that it reloads quickly when theirs en empty mag, my gloves already increase the reload speed, shit reloads in like two seconds flat.

God dammit. I really would like that. I also lol'd when I saw that purple hand cannon in your inventory as well. I got one as a reward from a Crucible match (for what, I have no idea) but I just dismantled it. None of this is carrying over except maybe whatever we earn from playing it on the 26th, and I didn't want that tease staring me in the face the entire time.

Nice loadout though!
 
One thing that's really annoying is how hard it can be to see drops.

I was doing a story mission and after it finished I was looking for drops. Because they insist on taking you out 30 seconds after, you barely have any time to find anything. When I was playing I saw a green drop in the distance and I couldn't make it there in time because it pulled me out :\
 
if you look directly at any player a button prompt comes up next to their name. I beleive you can invite that player to your fireteam from that menu

Thanks. I hope this game can sustain itself on Xbox One - population wise. Plan on playing a lot of crucible.

Anything you don't pick up in a mission will be available to pick up at the post office in the Tower.
 
They're rarely available at low levels. Which means I have to level using no secondary weapon...which kind of sucks.

Go to that crypto dude or whatever his name is and you can use glimmer to create a random secondary weapon If the option is available. You could get lucky and have it create a sniper rifle for you

Yeah I don't understand why there is a 30 second timer.
 
The game looks surprisingly good on 360.
I'm so glad Bungie handled the port internally instead of outsourcing it.
If anyone knows the 360 hardware inside and out, it's Bungie.
 
How do I play with other people? I got to the tower and I went back to earth and I don't know when the co-op part of this game actually starts.
 
None of the codes I have work. What's up?

Edit: nvm, apparently you have to have an actual gold account, not a secondary account on the system.
 
If there's something you missed, you get a notification when you return to the Tower, like a quest objective type message.

Yeah I didn't know there was any function of the PO in the Beta beyond giving you prezzies once a day for things like getting a "gold medal" (or whatever that is) during a public event.
 
I just soloed Sepiks Prime on hard. My group was pretty bad. They were getting killed over and over on the tank fight. They would just stand right next to it, basically. One of them eventually left, and we ended up 2 manning it. The other person left after that, though.
 
So we're fairly certain that none of our character progression from the beta will transfer over to the main game when it drops in September, right?
 
There wasn't any kind of frame drops it was a frame pacing issue which caused some frames to hang and others to be sped up causing a judder.

It seems to be resolved at this point but without a confirmation it could just be a placebo effect.

I would like to know, I didn't notice the frame pacing issue in the Alpha and the Beta so I feel the same with post maintenance version.
 
If you want to farm Glimmer (don't) I have a hard time believing that there's a better place than Sky Watch. It's ringed with almost a dozen potential chest spawns and has a potential event location to boot.

Also I killed my first high level. The Hallowed Knight there was lured onto the cliff and my two shot rocket launcher took care of the rest.

Fun game.
Titan level 8. Warlock level 8. Strongly leaning towards the Warlock as my first character.
Hunter, lol.
