Destiny |OT5| New patch out Tues., Master Rahool reportedly crying into his robes

So I've got my crucible rank at 2, vanguard rank at 3, and my faction rank at 3. Leveling up all 3 produces great results as I simply buy legendary gear from all 3 factions every week and break them down for ascended shards as I'm already decked out in full Dead Orbit Gear plus the helm of inmost light.

I'm still trying to figure out what the point of the cryptarch level is. Yes you get a package that gives you a chance for legendary engrams every time you level him up, but there should more than that. I've got it at level 22 and it's rarely done anything for me. I think I've gotten one legendary engram from the post master for leveling him up that's actually turned into a legendary.

Amen. I love this game.

It'll be great when the game is a little less new and all of the people who hate it will have moved on to hating something else.

Have you ever thought that the people "hating" the game might be the ones actively trying to like the game but can't.

I don't understand this game.

I'm up to around 80 hours. All my friends are currently preoccupied with FIFA, popping back on to Destiny every now and again.

It's frustrating and repetitive, I've done (nearly) everything, then done it again, then done it on a harder setting, then done it as a Bounty, then again as a Daily, then again for another Bounty and so on.

And yet it is utterly addictive.

I find the core experience, the actual gunplay, presentation and minute-by-minute gameplay utterly brilliant.

I'm constantly finding myself wanting something extra; another gun, more mats, more rep, more marks.

I find myself hooked, and yet at the same time worried about what's round the corner.

The core of this game is so brilliant; I just want to live up to what it can be.

I think these posts sum up my feelings on this game. Can only hate on it in small bursts, but ultimately I really just want it to live up to what it could be. Until they rework the "pay for story" model, it won't be there.

just a small forewarning- the best you can expect is a shift in ratio.

some people play games they hate for years. I don't get it.
 
Hi Destiny thread, long time fan, first time caller...

I'm enjoying the game a lot. I've been playing by myself mostly, with the odd random strike thrown in. What am I missing out on by not doing crucible stuff? Just points to buy weapons/armor or is there a story component there?

Nothing really. If you're looking to buy legendary gear from a faction then you're going to need to play crucible as every faction bar the Vanguard one requires crucible marks, but other than that, nothing.
 
Just got my fourth Exotic bounty. This time I'm going for the Pocket Infinity. I also got the Ice Breaker sniper rifle from the nightfall earlier. So all total my exotic weapons will be Invective, Bad Juju, Super Good Advice, and then Pocket Infinity. Not bad after getting all the way to the (soft) level cap with no purples or exotics. They've just been falling out of the sky the last week.

Make it 0/14 on legendary engrams being legendary or exotic items. Hopefully I get to a cool 15 before Rahool is replaced by his much smarter twin brother on Tuesday.

I received my first ever legendary from a legendary engram today. I couldn't believe it.
 
Going to run raid on normal for a buddy in 10 mins. I need 4 more people. My only requirements are must have mic and at least 27. No experience needed. PSN ziggygod

Hmm interesting question. Thank you for it. I've never thought that, I guess. I find the idea of having to actively try to like a game foreign and baffling. I can usually tell if I like a game or not within about an hour or two, for some games even less. The rest of my "review" play experience is deciding how much I like it.

I was addict to it before I beat the raid. I use to play hour of it trying to get new gear but now I have noting to work for. I just turn on the game then turn it back off.

It helps that the game does the shooting really well, but then when I think about having to run around in a circle waiting for spirit blooms to respawn I ask myself what I'm even doing.

Just leveled up the Cryptarch. I should save the message bonus until Tuesday, right?

Per Bungie.net:

"The 1.0.2 patch will go live next week, and includes several changes to the Cryptarch and Engram experience. These changes guarantee that Engrams will always decode into items at or above the quality of an engram.

Only Engrams that drop after 1.0.2 are subject to this change."

No clue if that means postmaster engrams too.

I don't understand that mindset. If I don't like a game, I don't have a desire to try to like it. I just play a game that I do like instead. I'm not saying that people that do feel like that are wrong or anything. It's just not something I get.

I haven't claimed it yet so they technically haven't dropped. Decisions, decisions. I just hit 27 but I still don't have any purple weapons.

Theres also the in between hate and love of a game, which is where many people are, myself included. It's just something to do. I can sit in crucible and have some entertainment even with some bullshit lag or matchmaking, but really the next big thing will take my time from destiny. It just does not have the legs to hold on to some.

I'm kind of in the same boat as the question. I like a lot of what Destiny offers - like really it - which makes some of the strange decisions in it even more baffling. If I didn't like the core of the game so much it wouldn't bother me at all and I'd move on to something else.

Some people like to get their money worth out of a game. I beat that shitty aliens game because I didn't want to waste 60 bucks.
