Yea, legendary engrams should get you legendary gear period not some chance at getting it.

It wouldn't be as bad if the percentage of legendary from them were better. Out of 14 that I've found, only 3 ended up being legendary, with one being exotic.
 
does anyone else experience looooong delays when respawning in crucible matches? does the auto respawn timer freeze for several seconds when you hit the button?
 
Load into the Dark Beyond. Get to the Temple of Crota mob encounter. "We've woken the Hive!" Kill all the trash mobs, let the yellow guys kill you. Checkpoint will take you back to the beginning of the encounter. Repeat as needed.

Start the mission on hard so you won't have to do the first part (you start at the temple). And don't kill the knight. Everything else is fair game. If you kill the knight it saves and you'll have to restart.

I do. 10 seconds remaining for automatic respawn. Same message displayed for 15 seconds.
 
So everyone recommends joining a faction so I decided dead orbit, so I have been doing tons of patrols e.t.c and I've only just noticed now to buy the armours e.t.c u need crucible points. Wtf so I'm forced todo multiplayer in order to buy anything? Did I join the wrong faction?

All these different points etc are so friggen confusing.

I've played for 30 hours and not one of my legendary engrams have been legendary. Starting to feel the grind. Thank God I enjoy the MP.

You can trade in mats for crucible marks I'm pretty sure
 
Really? Somehow i don't buy that. I went that route for a bit and couldn't get past level 21. I stopped the farming racket and played the game properly and got to level 25 in a day.

That's the thing about personal experience: it's typically unique and not indicative of the whole. I'm level 22, every usable piece of gear I got, and my one legendary, was from RNG. The strikes have netted me nothing but motes, cryptarch rep, and marks. I hope it starts working out for me better.
 
Yes, happened a lot yesterday.

thanks. it seems related to my disconnect issue, as when i get that it usually drops me then and there or shortly after. 8 days and cant complete a game. error code bee
 
What the hell are spinmetal, weapons parts, armour plates etc. even for? I'm level 21 now and still have no idea what to do with this crap in my inventory.
 
Man, this is really getting frustrating. Just leveled up my cryptarch and got 2 legemdary engrams but got only vrap in the end. That makes it my 5th legendary engram that didn't turn into a legendary item....

Meanwhile my PSN buddy got a legendary handgun with his very first legendary engram. RNG god hates me.
 
I enjoy the game but this review is just fucking spot on.

He's too annoying to sit through. Some fat dude in a leather jacket being loud and saying "fuck" a lot for comedic purpose is about as awful as it gets. He's not funny or affable and I'd never want to spend a single minute with this idiot. Why can't he just review games like a normal person and leave the funny stuff up to someone who is, well, funny.

Does he make any points that haven't already been discussed here?

I don't recommend joining a faction if you don't enjoy PvP, know. Put on any other class item and work on your Vanguard rank. Sorry you were misled.

You need crucible marks for every faction bar the vanguard one in which you need anguard marks. It doesn't take long to get 65 marks (that's what the gauntlet, chest, and leg pieces go for). You get 3 marks per game if you win and 2 if you lose.

You need to ease the fuck up. Nothing Angry Joe could possibly have said is worth an ad hominem attack. It's okay for people to dislike things you like and vice versa.
 
How....?



Thanks, you mean on the skill trees?
Just save the materials for now, you'll understand when you need it.

Upgrading your best gear to progress is a big part of the late game. Keep collecting all materials you come across.

Comedic purpose? He doesn't do it for comedy.

And if you don't like him, don't watch? I don't understand when people get butthurt over youtubers, just don't fucking watch.

Name calling is fucking pathetic too.

Yep. For example, cycle over the defense upgrades on a piece of Legendary armour and it'll show you what mats you need.

The second half of he tree requires ascendent shards/energy too, which is difficult to come by. You can get them by dismantling unearned legendary or exotic items as well as from engrams. You also get one for completing your first gold tier public event or the day.

I don't get what you're trying to say here. Should he have just ignored all of the obvious flaws?

No, I just don't think it's worth watching if you've spent a significant amount of time with the game or read a dozen reviews already.

He's also not entirely spot on as he makes a couple of factually incorrect statements. Dude should do his research. This is his job.

Unless you really like Joe and want to support him, he's not saying anything new.

I didn't watch, that's why I asked at the end if he makes any points that we haven't discussed here.


Edit: Did not know we were in Kindergarten today and had to mind our manners. Sorry for calling Angry Joe bad names. I should have just called him extremely obnoxious and left it at that.

I don't particularly enjoy Angry Joe either but really, you need to get over it. You seem to be an absolutely joyless person between this and you chiding people for not playing the game 'properly' (aka the way you play).
 
This game is so good. Redoing missions on level 28 difficulty is truly how the game was meant to be played. Every fight is a fight to survive.


My mate finally hit level 20 today too. Lucky bastard got The Final Boss at of his first legendary engram ever. S'all downhill from here buddy!


EDIT: Also, as is typical, got the last strange coin I needed for Gjahallorn, or whatever is, this morning. After Xur had left. Xur's a little bitch!
 
How do u meet people in this game I'm only level 3 and have no one to play 3 player coop with

The in-game social/community features are quite limited so you have to work with what's given to you (not much) and hope for the best.

People directing you ask on here or go to another site is indicative of how Bungie failed with regards to social features in the actual game.

Not bad.

Hi! if you post your platform and your ID you'll get some friend requests from this very thread. There are some pretty cool people in here.

if you want to make or find a team to do something in particular, you can use www.destinylfg.com

Fair enough, the name calling was unwarranted but at least you agree. He actually said at the end he enjoyed the game too, just lots let it down.

You have to harass people in town or the over world with invites. Good luck though, I've finished the game and no randoms ever accepted my invites, the game is insanely anti social, story missions really need matchmaking and daily/weekly strikes.
 
Anybody else curious as to why there is no map? Was this ever explained by Bungie?

Not that I know of. It's either one of two things: one, the game was rushed out the door, no time for a map, or two, some silly explanation about wanting players to explore their environments organically.
 
holy moly, got a bunch of cool stuff in one go.

1 legendary weapon
1 exotic weapon called Ice breaker
1 legendary armour.

Now the weapon, it says Please replace these components of use causes fatal damage: heat sink. Magazine. operator.

How to I replace those?
