Rumble pit is just so damn fun. This game shines with it. The maps are perfect.
As a warlock player, no, no its not.
I've lost count the number of times in control I've wiped out an entire team sitting on control point without them ever knowing I was there.

Im going to tell u right now that triple jump is nearly pointless. you almost reach the SAME height with the double jump + the "control" enhancement. Not to mention with triple jump you lose the control enhancement & cant really have that amazing level of control of movement while in the air.
Basically its this:
Double jump is kinda high,
Double jump + control enhancement is really high,
Triple jump is pretty much the same height as the above, only you lose the air direction control :|
Double jump + The SUPER double jump is actually the highest jump but again you dont get the control enhancement at the same time.
That's actually gonna depend on your Subclass and playstyle I think, not an out-and-out best.
Some of them really do feel quite good. Deceptively well-designed.
How many pvp maps are there total?
I think Bungie played too much Dark Souls and they wanted players to work for information and lore.

Ok so one of my bounties glitch. It allowed to turn it in 3 times. So my gear all basically upgraded. Lmfao awesome
Yeah but when the thread moves so quickly, its pretty hard to find people on a similar mission/same level as you. (not to mention the same console)
I know its not impossible, but its much more hassle than it should be.

Then they got the wrong idea because all Dark Souls lore is found inside the game, not in some app/website companion piece.

Exactly. As a Titan we at least have to get ourselves within range and put our precious bodily fluids at risk.
Warlocks can sidelong toss a ball of nuclear death and do a twirl mid-air before getting back into action somewhere else, and Hunters can ding their targets from 10 miles away like some kind of magical golden gun apache attack copter in stealth mode.
Titans bring it.
I have not really checked out the cards, are they just cards with information about people, places items etc?

It's more in the line with what happened with halo 4. So much info is all in the books. You had to watch the terminals on the website. Bla!
I suggest reading them if you want lore info.

I still haven't finished the game, but do we ever go back to Old Russia to fight the Hive that had ?? for levels, or is that only going to be accessible via DLC?

It's a self post so there is no precious precious karma for me. With 10ish upvotes this could get to the destiny reddit frontpage which has 65,000 subscribers and 3500+ people looking at it right now. It could be the push this extremely useful site needs to really become popular and help out Gurrry and countless others who are looking for specific fireteams.
Some (like the place cards) also have small mini-goals/benefits:
So the story missions with the star and the laurels are basically the "main" story as in the one with cutscenes that furthers the "overall" story of your guardian/the darkness along.
And the story missions with just the little stars are basically sidemissions that are "just another day in a Guardians life".
Ok, got it.

How do I download the vanguard armory again? It failed to install the first time.

No. No you may not. It would blow your mind so hard you'd be skeetin' all over the place.
Yeah, that's definitely it. The sidemissions are fun to replay, IMO. The pacing is good. The main ones would be too except the unskippable cutscenes which absofuckinglutely inexplicable in a game that encourages you to repeat content as much as this.

Alright, that's good. I'm almost to the end of the game, so I was getting worried that it would be something locked behind DLC.
Got this the other night, it takes a long time to get the required experience to get the upgrades on legendary pieces it seems, i did about 4-5 lvl 24 strikes last night and got minimal movement into the first upgrade (and maxed out all upgrades on the rare gear I had equipped)
If I may, unless you're OCD about stuff, just don't worry about it. It's very very very very close to completely worthless.

They've got info on characters reacting to what you've done (like some of the vanguard talking to you about what you've just done in the story card sections), info on the races and enemy types, stories from different guardians that you get from ghost fragments (I think).
There is some legit cool stuff there but I wish it was more in game. Like, we get some stuff on our weapons and armour and stuff and that's cool but I would have liked more from NPCs or just direct in game access to this stuff. Like, we have this Ghost, he's a little companion who is kinda computer mixed with space magic. He seems smart and knows what's up. Why can't the gameplay conceit for us getting grimoire cards be that it's info stored in the Ghost and he's relaying it back to us? If they didn't want to pay for more Dinklebot lines just have it be text only like the cards are now just accessed from a "Ghost Menu" or something.
That pissed me off with Halo 4. I'm not hugely into Halo lore and stuff. I enjoy the games, like watching the live action stuff (adverts, Forward unto Dawn etc) and I enjoy the stories told in the games and then we get to Halo 4 and every piece of important information is outside the game, either in terminals you have to find/unlock and read outside of the game or in the books. You find this guy and automatically know he's a bad guy, who he is, his rank, everything without even finding out in game and from the MC perspective there is no way he or Cortana should know (well, maybe Cortana. I can't remember if she interfaced with anything before he hatches).
100 marks a week, the circle around the crucible/vanguard options in the menu shows your cap progress.

This. Only Titans know how big a risk it is to get that close when the cross hairs are already aimed at you more often than not.
Those on the receiving end will always find something to complain about. The truth is, every super has pros and cons.

I think if there were more bookend cutscenes (skippable once the level/mission has been completed) to the story missions and just more interaction with NPCs it would have went a long ways in improving it.
To say the Destiny universe is in need of being fleshed out "in-game" is beyond an understatement.
Still, having a good time but was really looking for more story-wise. Hope this is just the beginning...

Thank you! It is millimeters away from the front page guys. And look, listings!

So I figured out an easy way to bug out the AI. For the melee enemies, atleast.
Step 1-Figure out their tether. Yes, most enemies in this game are tethered to a location. Once you go out of bounds, they cannot reach you. Doubly hilarious for melee enemies, because they just sit there playing hide and seek.
Step 2-Throw a DoT grenade when they try to rush you for an attack(Before backing off to their tethered location) right behind them.
Step 3-Stare at them or just shoot them in the face.

That's a pretty retarded gating design.
Oh, btw, what's vanguard marks used for except in the vanguard vendor? Seems like everything uses crucible instead, which makes Vanguard marks useless.

My fireteam is dominating in Skirmish so hard we've made two people quit out of the last three matches. Gives us time to look at the gorgeous skyboxes, lol.
So my 2 cents thrown into this massive thread:
I'm tired of Russia after the Alpha and Beta, but I want to play more and get beyond the Moon. I'm not excited about starting character 2 or 3 though...
I have yet to Crucible (aside from Alpha and Beta), but I really really want to.
As a MUCH bigger fan of Marathon than Halo, I prefer the lightweight, non-direct story telling here. Gives it more of a mysterious vibe, than the beat you over the head Halo stuff.
My biggest complaint is that I don't have enough time to play it more.
