My online Destiny experience is a sausagefest

i did a random strike today and a gurl added me as a friend after it, we haven't talked yet but i'm pretty sure i'm going to marry her.
 
there is a popular blond australian from melbourne who plays a ton of Destiny and is usually on page 1 of playstation live.

Maybe you can friend her and be in her server.
 
I run into them every once in a while. Not on Destiny though because I don't have it.

I play regularly with 2.. (one of them is my gf, and she's the one that got me into it)

the other is her co-worker.
 
What woman would want to spend time with a group of men who refer to themselves as a "sausagefest"? What a vulgar way to describe a group of males.

How about holding a conversation that doesn't have any references to human reproductive organs. You might just get some females!

I do.

You'll never see me have a mic on with randoms, but I don't mind at all talking with Gaffers.

This is one of my raiding team members. You can play with her OP, but I will have to charge you. lol

Edit: Destiny is a binder full of women. I have never seen so many girls in a online video game before.
 
I have played with several women online. One was a friend from another game, and another one is from GAF who doesn't use a mic at all so we had to PM each other to set stuff up, even during mid VoG raid lol, she would PM me back her response.

I didn't mind one bit, and she is a good player. My friends didn't care much either.

The first one though, she is shy, so I had to be in PSN chat with my friends and TS3 with her so I could relay her responses to my friends. No issue with that either.

After all, we were playing the game, not hitting on them.
 
To stay on topic, I've had the good fortune of actually being able to talk with everyone I've grouped with in Destiny, and like I said in my post above, only 4 of them have been women. The game really is a sausagefest, but it is no different from any other online shooter.
 
Women are smart and knows this game sucks hard.

86 posts and this many shitting on Destiny? Jesus... ( and sorry if this isn't allowed it just caught my attention)

Thread: Where do you draw the line? What does a company have to do to lose your business?

Well, Destiny lies at developer diaries and overall cheap ass quality of the game, means I will not spend a single penny in Bungie ever.

What a scam.

"inaccessible areas you would have loved to explore" thread

Destiny, the area they literally told "I could go there right now" in that infamous dev diary.

"Thread: Most Disappointing 2014 - Destiny Vs. AC Unity and Halo MCC vs Driveclub

Destiny:
- Corridor conected sections sold as open world.
- 10 minutes of incoherent cinematics sold as inmersive storytelling.
- 8 weapons with different stats solds as zillion on weapons.
- Tiny area with 3 useless vendors sold as multiple huge social hubs.
- Endless loading screens with spaceships sold as space exploring.
- 20 missions (most of them in same places) with almost same objetives, played again and again, sold as MMO progress.
- No lore sold as huge and deep lore.
- Etc...

Not sure what this Bungie guys did for 5 years of development, I guess browsing porn and shit.

Thread: Which publishers or devs are in your black book?

Bungie, they scammed me 60 bucks with Destiny, they will get another penny from my cold and blue hands (I mean after killing me, do not mind my avatar).

Thread: Games that don't have a clearly defined antagonist?

Destiny I guess, if 5 minutes of cinematics qualifies as story.

Destiny is like a son of WoW and Halo, but aborted.

My backup keeper at Fifa15 pro Clubs is a woman.

Dont remember playing with any other females on consoles.

Rtcw back in the day had a couple of female players.
 
There are a few women Destiny players who regularly post in the OT. You gotta know who they are though. It's not like they go around saying hi I'm a woman 24/7.
 
Admit it you're just trying to gather extra X chromosomes. We all know that the more X chromosomes you have in your party, the higher the chance of getting the Gjallarhorn.
 
I met two through Destiny and one of them has quickly become one of my favorite people to play with. I've only met about 5 people total through the 2 regrettable months I spent on there.

2/5 ain't too shabby
 
OP was hoping to find their WOW princess...All jokes aside I have a few girls on my PSN that play the game on the regular, but they don't advertise that they are women because people online a relatively dicks...
 
If you reveal yourself to be a girl in an online game you'll get one of three reactions.

1. Guys are going to be overly nice and start competing for your attention/wanting to help you out/try to give you things/'protect you'. Maybe they'll get in on that sexy time.
2. They are going to harass you/be dicks/annoying, 'grills can't play gamez. Get back in the kitchen'
3. They don't care and treat you like any other guy in the game, this is the least likely thing to happen.

This is just my observations through the years of online games so I understand why girls don't reveal their gender.
I am number 3. There's a few female players active in the OT. And frankly they are damn good players.
 
Many women get abused online. I would know because I have to deal with it when my sister plays games.

The ones who don't like the attention quickly stop using microphones.
 
So after four months of playing Destiny, and reaching a friends list on my PS4 in excess of 100 people, I have encountered... zero women. Nada. Zilch. Zero.

Not one single person I found online, on a forum, on a matchmaking site, in-game, a friend of a friend, or in a random party has been a woman playing Destiny.

In fact I think the sum total of non-masculine voices coming over the mic was a few party member's wives or girlfriends chatting in the background.

So what's going on here? Is Destiny 100% male much like CoD? Are the handful of people I met refusing or not using a mic actually women who don't want to get harassed? Am I, or my (adult, married/girlfriended/parent) male friends jerks on the mic?

Duh.
 
I turn my mic on if I have to. Often that means with only people from the OT.

This is one of my raiding team members. You can play with her OP, but I will have to charge you. lol

Edit: Destiny is a binder full of women. I have never seen so many girls in a online video game before.

Todd, pls stop.

Math is not yours to sell.
 
Our Xbox COD group used to play with a couple, she was the only one besides me who enjoyed the Search and Destroy hardcode mode in COD MP. So it was fun to play with someone that used tactics and strategy to play once in a while.

I think we played through pretty much every 360 co-op game there was.

Unfortunately it didnt end well when she decided to take up a relationship with another member of the COD group.
