Loving the game. Put in damn near 20 hours already.

Currently 23, trying to get ready for the Vault of Glass with my clan. Found this crazy legendary Sniper today. It's upgradable to the point where you can kind of use it like an AR, with fast aiming and reloads.

Welcome to GAF my friend. Very nice gear there. Are those just from random drops?
 
I need HELP, I have a serious connection problem with this game. Anyone can help? Everytime I play, or most of the times, I get disconnected from the game every 5-10 minutes and back to the ORBIT screen each and everytime. PSN or the whole internet connection doesn't creash with it, so it's connected to Destiny servers somehow. Any solution or idea about what's going on?
 
Just come back from holiday and found my game in the post. I haven't really payed attention with this game except it's a Shooter loot game like Borderlands but with some MMO elements. Can someone tell me which class is the most fun.

This is really preference, I guess everyone here in this thread will tell you take Hunter, Titan or Warlock, best would be to test them out, so you see for your self.
 
Is the map rotation broken or is there currently only one map on control? I had hours of playing only Blind Watch last night (which as mentioned is completely unbalanced), loaded it up again today and same thing, Blind Watch.
 
Well another day and level 24, the grind for gear has started and I'm not bored so that's a good sign.

Heroics are badass but can't do nightfalls yet, not geared enough.

Got my first purple drop but identified it and it become blue...

Stider got his first exotic which was awesome, bounty board exotic shotgun called incentive, mean upgrade tree, solar element and regens ammo.

Sleep good tonight, off to dream land.
 
Finally played the crucible mode. (team death match) Not surprisingly people are already level 20. I am only level 6 so I was getting destroyed.

I assume it's a moot point to play the crucible mode until I level up more?

We can't read your mind in the future and tell you which class your future self prefers.

Try them.
 
Does anyone else get put off PvP because of the low call of duty like health levels? everything seems to kill super quick and I dislike that, and it's a huge contrast going between tough PvE to super quick kill PvP

First Light is still :( annoying map

Destiny kill times are not like cod at all. you die in cod in 0.3 seconds sometimes. its ABSURDLY fast. Destiny kill times are slower in comparison due to shields. I cant stand cod multiplayer cause of its "i see you first so i win" gameplay style. Ive turned the tables on ppl shooting me in the back tons of times ( ・ω・)
 
Can anyone who has upgraded the warlock Sunsinger class to a decent level care to comment on how useful it is?


So far I've only seen a few youtube vids of it and was wondering if it's worth switching and upgrading it for when the raids begin.
 
Whats the better weapon when it comes to PVP?

  • Pulsar MSM - Pulse Rifle 121/130 Attack - Uncommon
  • Naraka SR5 - Scout Rifle 138/156 Attack - Blue

I also want to get some Illyrian Type 0 gauntlets. Do I need to keep playing and see the Vanguard when I rank up?

I have noticed that scout rifles and pulse rifles are very hard to make work in PvP.

Then again I only played the Control mode so far and that definitely favors more close combat weapons like ARs, Shotguns and Fusion Rifles.
 
Could someone please clarify for me what exactly carries over to PvP and what doesn't?

As far as I'm aware all your player abilities and weapon upgrades carry over but all weapon damage and health/armor are normalized.

So basically a higher level character will be better equipped in PVP due to having better abilities but weapon damage and armor will be the same as everyone else.

I got 19 kills with the Naraka last night and find it quite useful in PVP for killing from distance. TBH though once I pickup a decent level Cydonia or Shingen I'll probably switch over to them.

That happened to me. I got a blue drop and it became green, I then got a green drop that became blue. So it evened out I guess.

I'm not a 100% sure but I think the gun stats do (not damage etc but impact, Rate of fire), also any mods to the gun come across. So it doesn't matter how rare the gun is it all depends on those base stat bars. Then all your skills come across so someone higher levels would of unlocked more skills and then finally I think maybe your strength, discipline etc may come across which can improve cool down on abilities.

Then in Iron Banner everything comes across so Titan's become 10x more tanky.

I suppose I'll have to try them out. I've played a little with the Naraka SR5 - Scout Rifle in story and it seems to kill everything in 1 shot.

Funny enough the best weapon I've found for Control mode was the Tamberlane-B Machine Gun with an 81 attack. Can wreck a group who are capturing in seconds.
 
Hit 20 tonight when finishing the story (what). I'm digging the Strike playlist; I did a couple rounds of that and got into one from Venus and one from Mars. Both were pretty awesome. These Strikes will probably be my main joint from here out.
 
Hit 24 on my Titan.

Really content with it, grinded out Rank 1 for Dead Orbit too.

Very nice. I'll ask the same question I ask everyone with high level characters: Did you get your gear from story/strike drops or PVP?

I'm 100% going Dead Orbit with my warlock once I level up.

Haha. They just need to add that shit to the back of the box.
 
Currently a lvl 15 warlock and I decrypt my first blue encrypted thing and I get a legendary and then I realize it's for hunters. Kind of stupid that you can get other class gear from that. Oh well looks like ill do a hunter next.
 
I decided to rent Destiny for PS3 (PS3 mainly because there weren't any PS4 versions available) from redbox. I'll at least be able to see what the game is like for myself. Because it requires a constant online connection I might not purchase it, but I guess if I really enjoy the game it could change that.
 
I read somewhere that you have to kill them at the same time. I got mine when I nova bombed 4 guys at once.

You have to kill a warlock, hunter and titan in one life in a PVP match.

I got mine by sheer luck nova bombing a zone with all 3 standing in it. I don't know if there's a time limit to it though. I think the 3 kills have to be pretty close together.

The funniest part to me was right near the end, Dinkbot was like
"It's all starting to make sense!" to which I similarly yelled "WHAT IS" at my screen. Fucker doesn't elaborate one word beyond that either.

Whatever, I guess; I certainly didn't come into this game for the story.
 
Really disappointed in the story missions, every mission seem to follow the same template.

Getting really old defending an area while dinklage spews exposition at me.
 
Anyone else having problems with Bungie.net account linking?

I created an account in the Bungie App with my Facebook account only to realize that none of my game data was linked, and since there wasn't an option to link a PSN account, I logged out and created another account with my PSN account.

Now my PSN account and Facebook account are linked to two separate Bungie.net accounts. When I try to link one to the other, it says that they are already linked to a Bungie account and must first be unlinked.

No problem, since there's an "Unlink account" button in the account settings page, right?

The problem is, when you click it, it says you can't unlink an account you're logged in to the website as, and that you have to log out in order to unlink them...

Which is impossible because you can't access the account settings if you're not logged in.

Anyone else find themselves with this problem, and is there a solution?
I had this problem a while back. You need one form of log in attached to each account. What I did was add a secondary email account, which then allows you to remove one of your other log in methods.

Odd, it seems like it is showing here that I am Rank 2 with the Vandals, which gives me more glimmer per kill, but the actual numbers show 654/750. Rank 2 should be the one that gives me the extra glimmer yeah?

Maybe it is bolded blue just to make it easier to read though, dunno.

Remember you only get extra Glimmer while using a bonus Glimmer consumable!
