Not really understanding the complaints myself...
Destiny |OT5| New patch out Tues., Master Rahool reportedly crying into his robes

People like to feel like they're getting screwed at the first sign of "cut content".
Probably like all cut content in every game that isn't actually ever cut out to sell later. There's a tiny few examples of this. This isn't one of them.
edit: I'm of the opinion this game was in development hell and they just had to cut shit out to patch in later once they realized they couldn't meet the release date with everything they want.
Kind of like most every bit of cut content ever.
People are dumb and like to jump to conclusions with pitchforks.
i can understand the instict to assume, i'm just making sure I GET this revelation- all this shows is that the map screen was indeed programmed in advance of the first DLC to have all the selection indicators.
stuff that you actually can glitch into like the king's watch doesn't even appear to be listed?

Wow, didn't even notice that. Level 10 strike huh. So much for leveling up and wanting to revisit the areas with heavy guards.
Edit:
Aren't the top right story missions in the "Kings Watch" area new?
The current "in" thing on Gaf is to hate on Destiny or something. Absolutely love this game. Completed the raid for the first time this morning! Got my chatter white, a sick titan mark and tons of mats. Lvl 29 is so close!

Nope, that's not it. There's a ton of complaints because there's a ton of bewildering issues with the game.

I think there's an admin who comes every now and again, but no. Most admins are gone now, I'm gonna be stopping duties soon as there's little point to clans.
that thread is going swimmingly. just lovely
i'm not getting it:
but both of those areas are on earth and the first raid is on the moon? and those areas are INCREDIBLY glitchy in their current form
just, whatever, rage if you want I guess.
no indication the strikes/raids are on disc whatsoever so far as I can tell... -_-

So that's what that is? you can see that and seraphim vault in game now by glitching. they have some stuff in them but are very unstable.

My. God. A Skirmish where if you lose three times you are out. Gimmie, gimmie. The upcoming content looks fucking awesome.
Where can I read about that?

Finished my bounty and got this bad boy..
The 25 K/D spread was pretty easy actually, got it halfway through my third match.

The biggest issues are being addressed this Tuesday. I've enjoyed all my time since even with said issues. Most of the crying was because of the engrams. That will be fixed and strikes are going to be easier/faster and more reward full. Can't wait!

In the youtube vid of leaked content under the crucible section.
Just got this from a legendary engram I got in PVP.
That makes a total of 4 exotic weapons and one exotic piece of armor.
Weapons:
Suros Regime
The Last Word
Invective
GJALLARHORN
Armor:
Helm of Inmost Light
I really want this.
0 exotics so far, 0 exotic bounties; almost level 27.

They're only glitchy because of the way you get in. I've been in the Seraphim Vault, and once in and the whole thing loads (since you don't go through a proper loading screen), the area feels very finished, dead ghost and all. A lot of the doors are locked, but it's there. Looked to be the same with the area on Venus that was posted today where the guy Blade Danced through the energy door.

Well there are missions that are located in the Kings Watch area on that map. The player just didn't highlight them. But of all the locations that are blocked off on Earth, Kings Watch is the only place that does have mobs inside of it or at least was showed to have some populating it in one of the glitch videos from the Beta. The Seraphim Vault didn't.

Seems like the current thing on GAF is disregarding others observations and continuing to just write valentines.
Since some of the content is low level, it probably implies that the "expansion" story content takes place in between the existing story content that surrounds it.
I was really sadden to see the
additional Raids

The game has issues, no doubt. Some of them bewildering. Yet me and literally everyone on my PSN friends list plays it incessantly. I guess that means they got a lot right, too.

I have both Found Verdict and Invective, which one should I sink mats into?
The way I see it FV has 6 rounds, and is not Exotic. So I lean towards that. Shotguns own PVP and everyone says Invective rocks, but I completely fail to deliver kills with them. Even tho they get nerfed I sort of like to try one.

Nope, you can restart a raid from the beginning and collect all the rewards for beating the parts up to the final boss.

Speak for yourself. Most of my "crying" has been about the awful, awful story, and the incredibly repetitive mission structure. While I'm glad that they're fixing engrams, they've still got a loooooong way to go.
They absolutely nailed the core gameplay loop, IMO. It's all that's kept me going
But at this point, as soon as I can get a group together to run through the raid from start to finish, I'm done until the first expansion drops.Jest Chillin

Yes, you're locked out. In fact, you get locked out on each phase as you beat it the first time of the week until the reset each Tuesday. It's to prevent people from farming the items and gearing up too quickly and then never playing it again.
Edit: Sorry, I misread you. You only get locked out of bosses and phases that you personally completed.
there's still a lack of in-game communication tools, lack of matchmaking for content on "this side" of doable with randoms, lack of visual customization ability, and of course all the story complaints. and apparently, we are absolutely positive that the DLC content is all finished and on the disc just waiting to be unlocked by your hard earned cash
the degree to which you are able to look past these aspects (well, the first four, the last thing is a joke based on the research I have done so far) is exactly the degree to which you enjoy the game IMO. the only one that has even affected me is the visual customization bit which is probably not a high priority for as many players as the other stuff.
disregarding others' observations. smh. i'm paying pretty close attention to the observations people are making. a lot of them are silly as fuck.
level thing is personal preference I guess. I would prefer they NOT ever raise it. I prefer to be forced to improve my skill to succeed rather than arbitrary raise numbers that indicate the strength of my avatar. i know that's not a popular opinion though, and both the soft and hard caps will be raised before long.

I've been saving up my blue engrams when they announced the patch, should be able to get 1-2 Cryptarch levels from decrypting them after it hits.

I think they are doing stuff now with NA East 8. Clans are still pretty meh thanks to Bungie. I think we have the most PS4 users of any of them but wish we could see each other in game
Tag still looks bad ass IMO

Constructive criticism is always good but repeatedly looking for things to be upset about is another.
Also, the missions being in lower level ranges simply means that it's adding content that any new players or re-rolls can do. All of that content will be playable at higher level difficulties so it still adds content that high level players can complete.
Level 28 Raids works well also as it provides something harder than Vault without making Vault's Hardmode obsolete. Those 28 strikes will also have Hardmodes that will probably be higher level than the Vault Hardmode.
They can't fix the story D: I hope you're not looking out for that.
There are immediate problems with the narrative structure of games like Destiny that make it extremely tough to tell a compelling tale that doesn't detract from the player's personal experience. it's almost intractable. it's not unique to Destiny by any stretch.
any good story bits we get from here on out will be equivalent to "good episodes" of a really poorly executed TV show
that they did.They absolutely nailed the core gameplay loop, IMO. It's all that's kept me going
i'm surprised someone who has played as much as you is really concerned about weapon balance in pvp. what more would you change other than toning shotgun/AR range?
Down in Atlanta for a conference so I had to leave me PS4 back in DC.
But man, Remote Play is awesome. I won't be doing PVP well, but it's just fine for PvE (for the most part. High level Strikes may be rough). I may take some time to level a Warlock while I'm here, and then just do bounties for my 27 Hunter.
