Destiny: Rise of Iron - Launch Trailer
- Thread starter hydruxo
- Start date
Lament elsewhere.
Not sure what you mean. There are plenty of mixed feelings about this "expansion", particularly from those that have played all the previous ones. It's more of the same. Asking oneself if they want to play more of the same again is not unusual.
Only 1 at launch, but I have a feeling they'll add a free strike (likely a PS exclusive) later on or something.

Is this fact?! That's phenomenal is yes. The music in destiny is half of what makes it so amazing.
It isn't.

God's had his chance.
Haven't touched this since we settled into a solid groove and called it a day with Oryx hard...
A few iron banner events - had to get my new armor - a few rounds here and there but i've mostly been radio silent.
This is getting me excited again. And that helmet on the player Titan with the horns on it?? oOooOooOooooWEEE boy ... that's hot.
Please bungie... please god can you just this once give us Hunters some gear that can at least halfway compete with the other classes in looking badass? The IB gear is the best we have yet but i need something elaborate and dope as fuck to come outta this bad boy. A hunter Iron Lord should look like a fuckin menace. pllleeeeaaassseee... .

I hope there are a lot of new environments, i really loved exploring the dreadnaught. Adding snow and a weird disease to previous areas is super cliche.
You will probably be disappointed if you don't like snow.

You're going to be done collecting the content in a day. Where's the fun in that?
I did that for the past expansions and regretted it, so I've purposely not prepared as well as I did in the past. Should take me at least a week or two to collect the exotics, which means I actually get a couple of nightfalls worth of giving a crap about the rewards.

Yessssss!I have good news for you
You know that engrams are rolled when you get them, not when you open them, right? Or are you just doing that for the cryptarch exp?

Okay guys quick question,
Played everything up to the first raid. Can I jump in and still experience everything from the first two dlc expansions and last year's bigger expansion. Want to get caught up but also want to see everything I missed.
I have the first two dlc since I bought the premium edition at launch just never played them yet

The exotic engrams will decrypt at higher light- makes lvling much faster.

1 new strike and 2 reworked strikes, but both xbox and ps4 are getting them. The exclusive stuff from last year is going to stay exclusive longer for ps4.

Never interacted with the guy, but I've heard nothing but awesome things about the guy. Definitely going to run the raid in his honour. Maybe get whatever of XB1 DGAF I can to join.

To all those Destiny players who are getting back in...are you guys down to run the old raids just to experience it? I never had the opportunity to do Crota's End and have only done King's Fall halfway.
My buddy and I are looking for at least 3 or 4 others (preferably adults) to run previous raids and maybe future raids too.
We're on ps4.

I'm super pumped for this. 6 weeks after TKK and 700 hours + I was done with Destiny. But for the past 5 weeks I've been playing the game consistently in anticipation for RoI. Managed to get my 2 Warlocks and 1 Titan to light lvl 335 after deleting my Hunter.
Rise of Iron IB gear looks so goooood. Can't wait, I think the woman in the trailer firing the Jolder's Hammer IS Jolder.

Excited and ready to go!
Huh, I forgot that the cap was 335. I only ever got my main to 330. Sigh. When is the next iron banner?

Exact same thing I thought, it sounded like Peter Cullen was doing the narration.

This will be the first Destiny content I won't be able to play day one. Gonna be a long wait until November 10th.

Quests also catch you up in terms of gear. I wouldn't worry about it.
It won't be as much content I mean it's already priced 10 bucks below ttk. I mean this has 1 new strike and 2 remixed old ones. Taken king had 4 strikes plus remixes. That should already tell you enough.

So it's an absolute ripoff for casual fans. They're hoping that us casual fans pay for how much it costs a level designer to move a box 5 feet due to their shit engine.
Thanks for the heads up.

No.
New patrol area
New social hub
New raid
New arena
New story missions
New strikes
New gear
It absolutely compares to the previous expansions in terms of price.
Not quiet as much as TTK, but considerably more than the first two expansions.
That looks awful. Yikes.

The Tron looking raid gear is so SICK! Can't wait.

Is this the raid gear?
So how does things look for people who only do PVE? I quit the Taken King before the hard raid came out and never came back. Seemed like too much of the game was balanced around PVP, especially with all the weapon nerfs that should have only affected PVP but were universal. After the April revamp, it seems like the main means to upgrade gear past 310 or so seemed through PVP aside from the hard raid or that special POE challenge mode. Not sure if I want to try the new expansion, I'd like to experience the new raid but dunno how tedious it will be to get raid ready, especially since I don't have stockpiles of the currency/crafting components ready to go and don't like the PVP aspect much.

I'd prefer longer PVE events, like Queen's Wrath was two weeks. The way the weekly events tend to be on weekends would be an issue to me, as I don't usually have that much time to play then. It was pretty annoying with Mass Effect 3's multiplayer events as well.
I'd also love to have more stuff added to the patrols, as that's what I enjoy to do the most.
It took me pretty long to reach 300 light level before the April update, but since then (and doing King's Fall raid once) it's been a breeze. The only things holding my level back were a couple of lower level gear, particularly the Ghost Shell, but eventually I got them from Challenge of Elders as well, when I finally found people to play it with. They really should add matchmaking to that and Nightfall.
If the micro-transactions are handled similarly as they are now with the packages, I don't see anything wrong with that. I managed to get Taken armor for the Hunter from them, without needing to pay a dime.
To my recollection, you can get higher gear than that from ranking up Dead Orbit, and the other two. It's also a pretty quick process with Motes of Light, heavy weapon ammo, and materials.
Yeah, I kinda hope there would be separate threads for PVE and PVP, as that could make it more easier to keep up.
I have no idea, as I've levelled up doing PVE stuff by using Three of Coins on patrols, daily heroic story missions, strikes, Nightfall, Court of Oryx, Prison/Challenge of Elders, and ranking up reputation. I've only done every raid once.
EDIT:
It's perfectly fine for PVE players, even when sticking with matchmaking missions. See what I posted above. My three characters are currently at 333, 331, and 324.
