Destiny - The Taken King |OT| Time to Explain

it's a shame, for the asking price it really should be multi format compatible.

It's annoying for me, I play both PS3 and PS4 and now I've been forced to go PS4 only.

It's weird too, why provide an upgrade path for your first year players but not one for your big second year release?
 
Fuck me. I've been bitten by the hype bug again, and am looking at purchasing TKK. GAF, answer me this please: (sorry if it's been asked a bunch already)

What do I have to do to get those 3 emotes that all the drama happened with a few months ago? I looked on PSN to purchase a TKK+emotes package, but nothing existed, and I'm sure as hell not giving Bungee 79.99 just for a few emotes. Has there been any info released yet other than "oh we're sorry, we'll let you buy them individually later"?

What Destiny content do you currently own?
 
I might just try it again tomorrow.

The thing that worries me is how it shows that I pre-ordered it on PSN when it was declined. Can't even buy it on the web store now.

EDIT: On Chrome it allows me to but not on Safari. Probably because of cookies or something.

What's strange is that I was using Safari, too. When I switched over to Chrome, everything worked fine. It seems like you got everything sorted out, so that's good. I guess the lesson here is that Safari isn't cutting it anymore.

If you have all addons just buy TKK and you can get those emotes after the addon is live for 20$ I think.

We'll see tomorrow if I can buy it! fingers crossed.

But yeah, weird that it happened with Safari with both of us.

Yea I own both the other dlc, so I guess I'll just pick up the $40 add-on.

is $20 the accepted price of those emotes? That hardly seems worth it. Maybe i'll just watch them on Youtube a few times and call it a day.

Thanks guys. I'll begrudgingly be seeing you in game.
nah i'm pretty excited to see the new content.

I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, but you can buy TTK+emotes bundle already. I did it last week. It won't show up in the psn store, but if you log into destiny and click the TTK logo on the main director screen (under mars) it will tell you to buy it. There's the option for redeem code, just the TTK, and the TTK+emotes bundle for $60. You'll get everything when you close Destiny and open it again.
 
Light determines:

How much health you have
How much damage your abilities do

Light + your weapon attack determines:

How much damage you do


Quick example:

Say all my items,every single one,is light 200. I have a light level of 200 now.
I shoot at an enemy with my 200 attack gun and do 100 damage.

Now, I equip an attack 150 gun but also raise all my other items so I still have 200 overall light level.
I shoot at the enemy and now do 85 damage.

Even though i have the exact same light,I will do less damage cause my gun does less damage.

Now say I keep my 200 attack gun but raise my overall light to 220.
I will now do 115 damage to the enemy I did 100 to before.
this is a bit off
 
$20 for emotes...
What a time to be alive.

To be fair(er), the $20 is the emotes, shaders, and exotic class items that give you an XP buff.

Thanks for the info, I just looked up the 3 emotes, and while the Titan one is pretty hilarious, I'm not spending 20 bucks for those.

The shaders and class items are pretty cool too, but yeah, it was the biggest waste of $20.

Don't know how they could possibly think all that justifies the price.
 
I read that wrong!!! I didn't see the "raise all my other gear" part. Is it confirmed that damage is attack+LL?

I'm sure we'll get more tests for confirmation but I've seen a lot of people on Reddit say so.
It also makes a lot of sense because otherwise you could just still use gjallarhorn and such with only minimal damage dropoff.
 
Is that CE class item the alleged one with a perk that allows you to wear it while also wearing another Exotic armor item?
Nope, and they're only 170 light. It's bullshit. You can't wear any of your own exotics and it's just going to be replaced by blues tomorrow.

Only the faction exotic class items are level 40+have the the exotic perk.
 
So on the PSN web store I now have the option to pre-order the $40 TTK expansion, but I don't have any content past the Dark Below, I thought this $40 pack wasn't an option for me, so what happens if I buy it? do I not get house of wolves? then? this is all too confusing.
 
Just realized Destiny never gave me a Mida. 4 Gallyhorns, 3 Thunderlords and 3 Truths, but never a MIDA.

Mida isn't gonna carry over to Year two isn't it?
 
Oryx was in Disney's Fantasia?

Its funny, this is the first weapon you pick up, and still my favorite to use in PvP.
It shreds, and it's tiny so it doesn't block my view.

Random thought but its just interesting I don't really care about all the crazy weapons.
I hope taken king has some interesting ones!

 
Ok, this Legend of You thing is really cool. Apparently, I'm some kind of Fallen and Cabal murdering, undying PvE god. I'm totally ok with this.

I ... really don't think so.

Light is just, literally, an average of a gear ratings, some of which are the damage values on your equipped weapons.

Damage should just be based on your weapon damage, right? Why would it be otherwise?
 
I'm sure we'll get more tests for confirmation but I've seen a lot of people on Reddit say so.
It also makes a lot of sense because otherwise you could just still use gjallarhorn and such with only minimal damage dropoff.

Gjallarhorn is a 170 damage weapon. If level 40 weapons have 280 damage, you would think that the difference between 170 and 280 would be pretty significant.
 
Does anyone happen to know if I start the Trial version will it have the 2.0 stuff updated and will I be able to continue my game tomorrow when I pick up the full version?

Fucking fiending over here, it's kinda sad.
 
Does the 60$ version at GameStop come with the extra emotes and stuff? And if so are they still offering 20$ trade in credit for the base version of Destiny?

Does it unlock at 5am est tomorrow?

That's the one thing I'm also hyped about TTK. I loved that starting gun but you quickly replace it. It looks like TTK has some good guns in similar design.

No, the $60 is just the base game, Expac 1 and 2 and TTK.
