I got a badass exotic armor the other day. I love that I can revive teammates much faster with it.

I'm really loving this game so far!
 
I can't even do the loot cave because every server I connect to already has like 3 people farming the cave.

My hunter is currently dancing in the cave while I take a smoke break.

Every time I have bounties for killing 25 Hunters along with one of the same for any other class the former completes much earlier than the latter. Case in point, the bounties for today. I killed my 25 hunters in two matches of Control. In that time, the bounty for Warlocks was at 4 kills. FOUR! I was also the only Titan on my team with every other player being -- you guessed it -- Hunters.

I'm a Warlock. You can...you can come and shoot me, if you want :)

My character is also a female, so it's uber rare in this game of male hunters/titans.

lol
 
For those who have finished the raid. Did everyone on your team get the "raid armour"? At least one piece?

If not it will be seriously bullshit for random chances to get the raid gear you need so you can reach level 30. The raid is not easy.

I asked the Speaker that question and he said that he could tell me why, but then he didn't.
I asked my Ghost that question and he said nobody knows.
I asked the Mysterious Stranger that question and she said she was too busy to tell me why she couldn't answer but that I had to get my ass to Mars, because reasons.

She's meeting Douglas Quaid who had to start the reactor. See you at the party, Pointer.

If the Mysterious Stranger really does turn to be a time traveler I wouldn't mind asking her why she couldn't have shown up 10 minutes earlier and tell me what's going on.

On another note, I was replaying the story today and I noticed a moment that's throw out there and never used, so I'm guessing something they plan to use later, but during one of the missions when Ghost was hacking he mentioned something about a doctor and sounded surprised. He glossed over it pretty quick too so I'd hazard a guess that character will be relevant in one of the later additions.

Hilarious.

It hardly makes no sense. C'mon. And I guess some people can buy into the ten-year plan. Why is that hilarious?

Do you read the first book of a trilogy not knowing that there is more to come? What's the matter with waiting?

Could Destiny's story be better? Sure. But it is a good start. And the game is fun, too.

How is Sunsinger for pvp? Ive just been playing with voidwalker cause its fully leveled and I feel like Nova bomb is too good.
Click to expand...

Good, at first you'll miss Nova bomb easy multi-il, but Sinsinger sticky nades are great (always a kill if they stick to target). Good for using the double nade perk.

Alternative using the all nades ignite perk and ignited enemies burn longer perk the solar nade can really net you a lot of kills if placed right.

Coming back from the dead to kill the person who kill you is always great too, and throwing solar nades everywhere will net a bunch of kills.

Getting an extra shield from melee hits is great too.

In modes without objectives where enemies tend to not be grouped so much Sunsinger outshines Voidwalker imo, while in modes like Control the instant cluster kill power of Nova bomb balances the sub-classes out.

Can we do an experiment? Set a stop watch for 5 minutes, then after 5m die post your kill count according to your death screen. The problem is that each run doesn't take the same amount of time, because it's basically just until you die. You can't compare by just looking at the number per run, because you need to know how long a run takes. An *average* run, not a specific run. So time it over 5 minutes and let's see what your kills / minute are.
Click to expand...

Alrighty. Results:

5:12 from the opening of the door until I stopped shooting and died. (took a few seconds to die after I stopped shooting)

152 total kills. 75 precision kills. 22 ability kills (melee). 5 grenade kills.
6 deaths.

that's 30.4 kills a minute. The Dark Beyond on Level 9.

got four green engrams.

Thanks for the description. I just started leveling Sunsinger, and I feel a little uncomfortable because of the missing Nova bomb, but it seems like it has other skills that more than make up for it.

ff13 had better characters and a more compelling story than this though

You mean the line "Dr. Shim? Nevermind that."

So you heard it from Ghost himself: nevermind that.

Also the Speaker is such a terrible character lol. "I speak for the Traveler but the Traveler's dead so yeah. See you again before the credits!"

I can see why people didn't like FF13 but I loved it. It was a pretty easy game that required constant input or the difficulty would spike. Perfect way to burn an evening.

I didn't mess with the grind, though. Out of all of the pervasive aspects in gaming, I find grinding to be the least enjoyable.

Yeah...
 
The Cryptic Dragon Scout Rifle is so much fun. When you kill with a precision shot, the enemy glows yellow then explodes in a shower of fire with an extremely satisfying booming sound.

Carries over to pvp, which is hilarious to watch.

Asking again, what do you guys think?

Invective or The Comedian?

Eh, I'm not so sure it's a good start. The first in a series is meant to establish characters, the universe the story is set in, establish back story, etc. Destiny as it stands now does very little of this in the game.

I found the dead Titan in The Dark Beyond more interesting than any other living character in the game.

Anyone else notice you can shoot grenades? I got mine shot as I threw it in the crucible and died. It's a pretty cool feature to have that makes the game seem polished. Strange they seem to have worked more on polishing the game than they have on actually writing a story.

This has been in Halo for a while. Its fun to accidentally do.
 
Just got Crucible rank 3 and got a legendary. So I now have 3 legendary rocket launchers, one with void damage, one with arc damage, and the other with solar damage. In a way I guess that's good, but I much prefer the machine gun and I want that fucking legendary auto rifle, Bungie.

I think I just nerfed my own Shingen-E by "upgrading" it. Now it doesn't let me un-do the upgrade.


It fires soo slow when I ADS, now :(

That's the only thing that allows the Shingen to truly swing with scout rifles at mid-long range.

Dude, that's the best time to be there! More people the better.

Don't be a pill and stand inside the cave though. You will stop the Thralls from spawning.
