Okay,

The community hasn't really settled into using any particular one of the LFG sites yet... reddit doesn't seem to have a preference quite yet and I'm not sure where else to look. I checked out the ones that offer these general services and I think that

http://destinylfg.net/

is the nicest. It has filters for both platform and region (none of the others seem to have both, annoyingly), doesn't require any signups, shows how long ago a listing was made, has report/banning functionality for abuse, and a couple other nice features. www.destinyteamfinder.com is missing region, and thatwizardcamefromthemoon.com is pretty, but WAY overcomplicated and missing basic features for this use case on top of requiring a signup. NONE of them but wizard seem to have an option for Headset Y/N, but whatever, if you require one you can put it in the comments.

I really think if we were to adopt this site and start listing things it would go a long way toward making the site itself a valuable resource for others, and enhancing the enjoyment of GAF members who don't have people to form a fireteam with.

Love the layout. Seems much easier and streamlined than the others for sure.

Nope. Locked areas are still locked. Absolutely ridiculous. This game is a joke in many ways. Luckily it's also really good in some other ways.

From what I saw, there aren't really any "locked" areas, besides the ones only used for story missions and strikes. There are doorways that you can't enter, which are used for spawn points for enemies, not as a locked area. There are still several places with extremely high level enemies, but they're not locked. You can run through them on your sparrow and survive (if you're very lucky).
 
Getting notifications that:

- "Use of user generated media is not allowed on your account"

- "Use of this application's chat and messaging features is not allowed for your account"

Then it hangs on the sign in. It was fine an hour ago. Is this a server issue or something on my end? It sounds like a ban, but I don't chat and rarely interact with anyone. What gives?
 
I was actually gunna use lfg tonight for a strike on venus lol
Sweet, spread the word about it if you can! URL is easy to remember luckily, just don't forget it's .net

Wait... what? Those areas are still locked?

Seriously?
Heh, I'm really not sure that's correct. I don't know if there are any "locked" areas actually. Enemies with I heard that enemies showing ??s are, I believe, just 5+ levels above you and can be returned to and dispatched. Can anyone confirm?

What about those areas that some people were able to get into accidentally in the beta but weren't actually open up for people to go into?
 
YESS!!! Been saying this for WeEks!!!

new online game mode, sparrow wave racing.

I want Sparrow racing so bad. Like Warthog racing in... Reach? 3? One of the Halo games.

Probably hard to set up though as they would either need unique maps, modified larger maps (moon one that was in the beta and that one on mars one where you can get the interceptor come to mind) or spawn you in on a planet and racer there.
 
Dismantling is selling stan!
So true. Unfortunately for me, I don't have a shotgun right now. Sold my old crappy one for parts.
I'm certain the gunsmith will have one that you can easily take into PvP.
You earn em after level 18 it unlocks a new crucible style playlist but of harder strikes, you can also get them for trading materials like spinmetal to the vanguard quartermaster
Bounties also give you Vanguard marks.

I don't really know what an example of that would be or how to tell...
 
Man who's decision was it to disable matchmaking for Heroic strikes? That's just stupid, I understand (kinda) why they did this for raids, but why can't randoms handle strikes we've all done already just more difficult?

Absolutely stupid decision imo. Hopefully can hook up with some gafers later.
 
Redeemed a legendary engram only to get a shit tier blue weapon, smh.

Yeah this is why I'm saving my purples. Anybody know how much cryptark rep you get from deciphering a blue item? I have a bunch but I think it'd be best if I just deciphered them for rank.

Yeah, this is why I post my psn id as much as possible. Ugh, come on Bungie, no value added with that omission.
 
I play at odd hours sometimes but if anybody would like to add another person to their PS4 friends list go on ahead, PSN: LordHoag. If you ever see me on and want to shoot some things go on ahead and send me a message. I'm level 18 at the moment, hoping to push to 20 later tonight.
 
What faction should warlocks go for?

From looking at them, for me at least, FWC looked best as it's gear had both int and discipline which I like better (more often super and grenades? yes please!). I think the other ones have them in differing combos like str and int / str and discipline.
 
Is there a way to get different classes of armor from the tower? I had a good look but I couldn't find it. I've only ever earned one new class and I'm level 11. It's just a little rag by my feet. Yet I see people running around the Tower and elsewhere that are around the same level and have epic cloaks.
 
I know the feeling. Makes me question the "level" playing field. How people can melt me with 3 auto rifle bullets I'll never know



So it's not just me! *sigh of relief*

They normalize weapon damage, but you still have a ton more abilities / modifiers on armor / guns / etc. at higher levels.

You do definitely have an advantage at higher levels, regardless of what people say, although there is a lot of skill involved too.

In an extreme example of this I switched over to sun singer at 15 and immediately jumped into PVP. I had literally no abilities, including grenades and hovering. I figured it would give me a base load out at a minimum. I switched back after the first quick / brutal death.
 
Sorry to hear about the problems, for what its worth I have had the same thing happen to me but only once since I purchased it on launch day. Luckily, even if you are mid mission it allows you to pick up where you left off. So while annoying, at least its not devastating in terms of progress lost. Must be a bungie server thing in general.

Yeah, I noticed it reverts back to a certain point in the missions. Thanks for stating you are having issues on xb1 because that means it must be a Bungie thing then.

This happened to me a lot. Today I got booted 5-6 times, once few seconds before end of a Strike. T_T

However, my reported error was "no internet connection" that also booted me out of my PS4 Party Chat session. Because of that I suspected that the culprit is my router who maybe does not like "low bandwidth state" that PS4 maintains with PSN/Bungie servers. This type of disconnect never happened on my PC. So I just activated some torrent to work in background to maintain some bandwith, and..... that gave me 2 hr of Destiny time without any disconnect. Strange... but it worked. I will need to test it more though.

Lol, I just got booted while loading to go back to the tower. I think that's enough Destiny for me today.
 
Titans should look to New Monarchy. Armor has stats for Intellect (Fist of Fury cooldown lowered) and Strength (Storm fist cooldown lowered).
I (Titan) went FWC (intellect + discipline). Would rather have grenade cooldown as I use it CONSTANTLY (a lot more than melee), but still have the super cooldown as well.

FWC SON!

Gonna add you. I am level 17 right now and should be by 20 tonight. My PSN is F0X-AlV3E

Are these things explained in game, or do we have to google facts like this? It might be awhile before I get to 20 anyways as I am in no rush and really enjoy patrols.

Shameless friend plug incoming
Rflagg080 psn:
Minor warning I never pull the trigger on inviting others(because I hate the in game invite system why not be able to send a short tell about what you want to do? ), but I would love to do some strikes or team up for story missions, even if they are below my current level. If you see me rolling on patrol earth I am trying for spinmetel and glimmer so depending on when I started I might send you a tell back instead of grouping.
 
Not always though, most of the time it's just vanguard rep
You're totally right, I was confusing myself. You can collect materials while doing patrols/bounties though and turning those in to the vanguard can get you marks.
Here's the Seraphim Vault that was able to be accessed via a glitch. You can see it's a full, detailed, intricately designed area. Because of areas like these, people assumed the Old Russia we played in the beta was just a slice of the real thing.
How would one get there "legitimately"?
