Destiny House of Wolves Reveal Thread

Shit... I've stopped playing Destiny shortly after the first expansion.

I was ready to be done with this game until I came in here and found out that Fatebringer can be upgraded. That is awesome and reason enough for me to download the second DLC (that, and the fact that I already paid for it).

1) They're getting their asses kicked.

2) Pretty good sized area.

3) Round and wave based, very similar to Reach Firefight.

4) New modifiers!
 
They really should have more skilled players playing this. Even this Broman guy? Is he a streamer? He seems way to eccentric in his play style. I'm guessing he's a PvP guy?
 
It sounds great... except for the got damn exclusion of match-making from the "Challenge" mode

Come the f*ck on, Bungie. Stop gating the highest rewards by not including match-making.
 
IGN has a writeup.

http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/05/06/destinys-prison-of-elders-aims-to-please-pve-players



The Prison of Elders melds Strike missions, damage modifiers, and objective based gameplay together to bring us into a place where ”the most nefarious enemies in the galaxy are held prisoner.” You and two other players will arrive at this location in a dark and dingy room with four doors where a modifier notification will eventually pop up on your screen before a door opens revealing a large Servitor and your challenge. Once you enter the room you’ve been assigned, you’ll fight waves of either the Hive, Fallen, Vex, or Cabal while being given secondary objectives and avoiding landmines strewn throughout the level. These secondary objectives can consist of blowing up bombs by shooting them, disarming bombs by standing near them, or killing an enemy before he reaches his destination. Thankfully, these secondary objectives stop the mode from becoming a ‘hide in the corner and shoot everything’ mission. They’ll force your group out of your comfort zone and make you go to different areas of the map, but you’ll usually return to a spot that you’ve made “safe” – or at least as safe as you possibly can when 40 enemies are all around you.
 
I don't get the hate for Broman on this stream, he's pretty good I don't mind his stream and listen to it fairly regularly. He isn't the best streamer but he can be good.
 
So its basically defeat waves, like in every mission in destiny?

So only babby mode has matchmaking, everything with decent rewards doesn't?
