I really, really wish Bungie had included grimoire cards in the game. Or at the very least made them easier to read on the website.

It's so hard to find something specific. :/

 

[U2NUMB]

And first PvP game was horrible.. 6 vs 4 for 80% of the game.. I still do not understand the balance of the PvP.. just not fun at all and was hoping it was going to change from beta. Will keep at it but ugh..

It seems weird that the message popup is so prominent for something you can't even see in-game. Hopefully they add a viewer at some point.

Special order vendor is in the same building as the postmaster, just on the opposite side (closer to balcony).

one for each character slot. put 2 of them in your vault and grab them when you create othe characters.

Thanks guys, sorry for being a fucking idiot with this game.

Man, WTF. I had absolutely no issues during the alpha/beta. Now all I get are centipede and bee error codes. I'm done for the night.

Anybody want to join?!

I'm available if you need another.

Well, my xbox one decided to download it for a second time. Sitting at 52%, it will be a few more hours before I can try it.

 

[bob page]

So with the engrams that the cryptarch sells, is it best to buy those as they come available or should I wait until I'm higher level to buy them?

 

[Ken]

Should I decrypt them as I pick them up or hold on to them for later levels (I don't know if they scale or not)?

 

[ryan299]

Where do you get the vanguard armory weapons?

 

[Citizen_Insane]

They scale, so later levels.

 

[ProvenDeadly]

Do you have to be a certain level to even be able to see the vanguard weapons?

 

[Truant]

Just tried the Moon strike with my lvl 12 and two lvl 11 dudes. We couldn't even damage the boss. Such a crazy dungeon.

 

[Ken]

They scale, so later levels.

Alright cool. Wish the game said that somewhere but I kind of guessed that when the engrams don't come with levels themselves.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I better keep my encrypts then. Also yes handcannon is amazing.

 

[imjust1n]

Head shots just feel so good.
I dig the story so far.
the music is amazing actually.
I like the rpg crafting stuff.
I love the dedicated app.
I like hard is challenging.
It has me more interested in what's gonna happen.
The graphics are amazing and love the way the characters look.


I don't like that the world seems empty at times.
I have not come across a character I can love at all. Like story line that is.
I hope this game is not short.

8/10 early score. I'm so far digging the game and I don't understand others criticism. We all have our own thoughts.

Here's to hoping it's quick for both of us.

Do Vex Minotaurs have a weak point? Couldn't seem to find it.

 

[super-famicom]

Level 5, if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Keeglez]

Just got disconnected from the Strike on Earth, the ball boss had maybe 4 shots left till he was dead.

 

[Jagxyz]

Anyone else not get anything from those 20+ codes or whatever? Where do you go to get it?

Also, how do I get the clan tag active?

 

[Hiko]

headshots with the headcannon are just

Killed the wizard with like three shots

 

[VisceralBowl]

nvm

 

[LEGGZZZZ]

How does matchmaking work in this game? Is it still like the beta where you need to link up with people in the main city area?

 

[broony]

Not 100% convinced on the story but the encounter to encounter gameplay is solid. Guns feel great, A.I. Is really challenging and the art / environments are really cool.

I was unsure of the sound in the beta but it's great so far in retail.

I'm having lots if tense moment where I get out by the skin of my teeth. When I do die I never feel it's cheap. I know I fucked up.

It's like a fps theme park with lots if awesome rides.

 

[Jarmel]

headshots with the headcannon are just

Pure Sex: The Gun

For normal missions yes, you need to make a fireteam in the city or with randoms you meet outside the darkness zone.

For strikes you just select them and it fills your empty fireteam slots with others.

Skill Points Question

Is there any reason/need to save skill points or are you supposed to buy anything you want when you level up?

Is there re-speccing or anything?

 

[StrongBlackVine]

How do I unlock this Vanguard armory pre-order bonus? Do I need to hit a certain level?

 

[super-famicom]

Anyone else not get anything from those 20+ codes or whatever? Where do you go to get it?

Also, how do I get the clan tag active?

You need to go back to Bungie.net, and look at your list of redeemed codes. There should be a button that says "Use Now," or something similar. After you click those buttons, they should be available at the postmaster for pickup (for emblems and shaders. grimoire cards should be viewable on the site or app). You may need to restart your game for the items to show up.

For the clan tag, visit the clan page and there should be an option to set it as primary clan.

Have you tried the app?

 

[Kiant]

Well have to honest guys and gals, this game is a big disappointment for me .

17 at the moment and 2 maybe 3 story missions from the end and nearly everyone has been the same, press square and then defend against 3 waves. Strikes are just downright boring and not entertaining, the bosses might as well be called Bullet sponge #1, so far the only enjoyment has come from PvP.

So strange because I liked the beta, I was just hoping there would be more to this game but there really isn't. Feel bad because I know there are people who are enjoying it but yeah..not me.

There is no reason to save points. You can repec every 5 minutes if you want to.

When you get a skill upgrade, just go ahead and activate it. You can respec (in the categories you're able to) anytime for no penalty.

Time to run some strikes! LOVE THIS GAME!

And holy shit just got an uncommon quality handcannon. Ohhhhh yeah

My first legendary gear!

 

[The Librarian]

Yeah, the app isn't too great for that. It was actually what I was using before I made that post.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Wow I hope that wasn't the only Earth story content. 25 minutes for that?

Spoiler

If so, this game is turning out exactly like I thought it would.

 

[boredofcanada]

So, is Iron Banner coming back?

Allocate all the bandwidth TO ME!

What skill did yours come with? Mine was "bonus accuracy when firing from the hip." Feels like using the Halo 1 pistol, but without the zoom. But I may need to find a replacement soon, it's only level 7.
