They've said they're going to buff it so it's a much better PvE weapon - it's intended to be a weapon that you would want to take with you through the next raid, which might explain why it's solar (since the hive are mostly weak to solar.)
DLC looks awesome, lots of new weapons and armor (with new mechanics for upgrading guns, etc.) I liked Destiny from the beginning but they've really been making huge improvements lately and I hope this continues the trend.

Is it not? It's one fourth of the planets? I wouldn't mind seeing a breakdown/number of missions.
But you are classying each planet as 25% of the total game, which isn't true at all.

You are not counting strikes and the raid. You are not taking into account that the first earth missions are very short. Calculating the exact percent of gametime the trial has would be difficult, but is certainly less than 25%.
Raid, pvp. The beta is more like 15% at most. But your not even the 100th person to post that meme on gaf.

Fair enough. I know I played less of Earth than the rest but that's because it is the lowest level content. End-game content and repetition aside, In terms of actual things to do and see, it certainly felt like a fourth.

Then why did the Mythoclast get nerfed so badly?
Guardians with body armor full of holes made with the Mythoclast re-entered the Vault and time travelled to the future when the Mythoclast is about to enter production and swapped the schematics.

Enemy design in this game just screams lazy. Bosses are just bigger versions of the minions.

Perhaps it felt that way, but it just isn't true.
They all feel like reskinned halo stuff to me. Cabal = brutes / hunteres. Fallen = Elites / jackals. Hive = Flood. Vex = sentinels and 343 = ghosts.
They went with what they knew for sure.

Pfft joke was done by Honest Game Trailers already.
Also, I am pumped for this. Much like aforementioned video, I can complain about all the problems I see with this game but I can not stop playing.
It wasn't a joke though. People have been saying it since launch.
We can definitely scale standard enemy types, and do, but for special encounters the team creates new geometry, shaders and effects, encounter mechanics, sound effects, etc.
What you're seeing in the prologue is one of Crota's forms. We'll have some more info dropping soon, but we'll be pretty tight lipped about the Raid and Raid boss for obvious reasons.

I just don't understand why every alien in this game (some of them from different star systems/galaxies) is a biped or a geometric floating thing.

While it is true that Sekrion and the Templar (just to use them as examples) are different from each other and from standard Hydras, they are visually similar and it's hard to spot the differences in the middle of combat unless you are scoping them.
I've raided a ton and only realized the Templar was not a vanilla hydra some day that I happened to be far from him and decided to use a sniper rifle.
Lmao. I love this.

That Destiny split in a nutshell lol
Make sure to include some fromage in that geometry, good sir! Some of us like our cheese.
Sure, they are based on base enemy types in a similar way that Phogoth is based on an Ogre. In some cases, the differences are minimal so we don't lose affordance (for example, lasers are going to come out Phogoth's face), in others the changes can be more radical.
But I hear you.
I'm pretty sure normal will be 28 - saw that somewhere in the materials that came with the update on Monday. They wouldn't make it 30. Normal 28, hard 32 (new level cap) makes sense.

I'd love to play it, but i'm not buying DLC.
If it is her I'm seriously wondering if this was cut from the main game. She's too big of a voice actress to have been literally a pointless character you never speak to. Then they'd bring her back for the expansion? I'd bet anything she had all that recorded from ages ago.

Yeah not gonna worry about this until Destiny 2 ( or a major expansion ) next year.
Not paying for little trinkets of extra content here and there.

Isn't the Iron Banner selling level 30 boots and gloves right now?
You have a good imagination man.

Yep. Easily attainable with about 4-6 hours of smart play, as well. Totally worth it if you are not being blessed by RNGesus, so pick them up while it's hot. The event ends on Tuesday but as the week goes on the Tempered Buff (Costs 1 Mote of Light and lasts 12 Hours) gets stronger every day, speeding up reputation gains.
There will be alternative paths to 30 with the DLC, I'm not too worried about it as someone with two 29s and one total raid gear drop.
That must have been fun.

Lol. I wish my dad was good enough and willing to play these types of things, would be pretty fun, but he isn't coordinated with FPS at all.

Stoked for this. My Titan is ready, Hunter is close, Warlock is lagging behind.
