I still really dislike this weapon system. As cool as it is to get abilities to proc, I feel we've lost a lot more fun by limiting our weapon types to a lot of general purpose weaponry. All the interesting guns are in the "never gets ammo" category. Sometimes, I get plenty of purple drops, but I mean, I can go through my shotgun's ammo in ten seconds or so. It's incredibly frustrating, and some of the worst design I've ever seen in an AAA experience. The combat flow is just so much flatter than Destiny's was.

It's way more interesting to have a scout rifle, shotgun, and sword than it is to have, like... an AR, an elemental AR, and a shotgun, or something.

It makes sense that you arrive at the farm and it's completely empty except for the lady with the hawk, and when you return five minutes later it's totally set up as a functioning base? Seriously, you stumble into an abandoned farm one minute after being abandoned and alone for weeks and return to a thriving encampment the next. It felt so disjointed that I wondered if I had missed something.

I mean, do you really think you fly between planets that quickly? It's a timeskip.

What's weird is that after the campaign,

it's completely abandoned; I don't understand this, considering how bungie really pushed it in the marketing. There's no point to going there after the campaign. It's bizarre.

Hey guys my wife had a question a few hours ago. She wanted to know when I'd be "done". What is "done"? Do I need a higher light level?

i agree, this isn't explained well in-game.

There should at least be an NPC dedicated to plausible explanations for your SO

 

[OriginalPoe]

You need to clarify what her definition of "done" is ... eek.

 

[adversarial]

Back to back baboon errors for the past 30 minutes. Just me?

 

[Abstruse Moose]

Soon.

 

[Darryl M R]

Beside the armor set sold by Tess for real money I'm not sure if any other armor will stand out to people.

 

[Perineum]

So I unintentionally ended up doing the things to unlock Voidwalker for my Warlock, but then saw in PvP you can be a Stormcaller?!

How do I unlock stormcaller?

 

[squidyj]

this voidwalker healing is fucking ridiculous.
heal to full, gain some grenade energy, refresh the buff timer? jeeeeeeze

not to mention just facetanking bosses with the warlock healing circle.

 

[Hawkian]

Same way as you did Voidwalker without noticing I suppose, hah.

Once you are at level 14 or so you'll get an artifact from a chest if you keep doing stuff in the EDZ.

 

[CrimzonSamurai]

The only thing I can say I'm disappointed in so far is the gun sounds. I had one blue pulse rifle that sounded so satisfying, but every other primary is just like pewpewpewpewpew.

 

[ZeoVGM]

I still can't get over how much I love the colors in this game.

YES.

My fiancee and I were talking about that tonight. The game is SO colorful. Just wait until you get deep into Titan.

 

[Ivory Samoan]

I see storms on them there horizons my hombre...I'd come back with "soon" and keep that going for the next 2-3 years.

It's great, not ridiculous: not OP at all

Spoiler

pls stop or Bungle with mess with my baby haha

 

[ShooterMcGavin]

Everything just feels better in this game compared to the first one. So glad I "reluctantly" gave in and bought it. Let the loot addiction begin...

 

[psynergylover]

where is the "New Pacific Arcology?"

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

Damn! Already all the way up to 271? They really are dishing out legendary and exotic engrams left and right.

Failsafe for president.

What activity are you primarily partaking in?

Grinding Public events in the EDZ; Great way to get better gear and finding EDZ tokens to give to Devrin for legendary gear.

 

[CrimzonSamurai]

where is the "New Pacific Arcology?"

It's one of the platforms on the Titan environment.

 

[Caim]

Subclass relics randomly come from chests and there seems to be a level requirement for them to start appearing.

I got my 2nd class at 7 and the last one at 15.

 

[darkwing]

what's a good thing to buy, keep on running into the glimmer limit

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

Couldn't sleep so why not play some Destiny? Woke up at 1:30AM but now it's time for work! Did the Nessus story and some adventures. Got 3 left then I'm off to Io. I'm lvl 16 (164) now.

Need to try get Stormcaller. I've only got 4 unlocks left in Voidwalker. I'm having too much fun with Warlock...can't believe I haven't played it until only now. It has easily become my favourite. Warlock > Hunter > Titan. I'll be going with it on PC.

Can't wait to get back home later and play again. Also, Failsafe is the best

 

[Vilam]

My PS4 Pro has crashed 3 times now during the middle of the Lighting the Dark mission; this sucks.

Edit: Finally passed the mission by running through it without killing anything. Crashes seem to happen when I'm firing my weapon. That said, started the next mission and this time it crashed my entire PS4, the whole system shut down. Fucking great.

can I get specific directions? i'm at the supposed spot but no kills are registering...

 

[BuggyDClown]

Hey so I did one of these a few weeks ago for Law Breakers, we are giving away a copy of Destiny 2 for the launch today of our twitch channel. Once we hit 200 followers we are giving away the free digital code it's Destiny 2 Deluxe on PS4.

https://www.twitch.tv/unrankedpodcast

If you have a friend who wants to play on PS4 since I figure most of us have the game already this is something they or you may want.

 

[CrimzonSamurai]

can I get specific directions? i'm at the supposed spot but no kills are registering...

I think it's the biggest platform in the bottom center of the map but I don't have it in front of me.

 

[Hawkian]

The New Pacific Arcology is the name of the entire playable area on Titan. It's equivalent to "European Dead Zone" on earth.

More specifically, the actual arcology is the giant, domed city that you can see at all times in its skybox.

can I get specific directions? i'm at the supposed spot but no kills are registering...

Registering for what?

 

[GReeeeN]

Snipers don't feel powerful enough to be in the power weapon slot, especially in pvp. Why would you take the risk in missing a hs when 1-2 bullets from a grenade launcher that shoots nearly just as far is pretty much guaranteed an instant kill.

Also the majority of pvp maps don't feel sniper friendly unless in one very specific area of the map

for the challenges Ikora gives you after beating the game...

I have to kill 40 enemies in the New Pacific Arcology

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

What's the best thing to do with unwanted exotics like low level ones acquired during the story?

 

[Hawkian]

for the challenges Ikora gives you after beating the game...

yeah that should legit just be 40 kills on titan. Sure you haven't just already completed it, by any chance...? They reset daily.

 

[carlsojo]

It's a pain in the ass. There aren't very many enemies in there. I don't know how to give you directions either.

 

[OriginalPoe]

what's a good thing to buy, keep on running into the glimmer limit

Treasure maps from Cayde.

 

[serenewarfare]

Just got The Prospector exotic. Full-auto grenade launcher that allows me to detonate them all simultaneously.

RIP.

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

Story handing out free loot.... damn.

Spoiler

I chose Graviton lance

and i'm gutted to already have it. It's really boss.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Finally got my copy today and played the first few missions. So far I am enjoying it a lot still a meal lvl 1 lol

 

[Caim]

What's the best thing to do with unwanted exotics like low level ones acquired during the story?

I'm not sure, but they also dismantle for 5 legendary shards, and you can also bring any exotics you got back at 205 at the cost of 10 shards each from your Vault.

 

[CREMSteve]

This game is so good.

 

[LegitMcfalls]

Hey guys my wife had a question a few hours ago. She wanted to know when I'd be "done". What is "done"? Do I need a higher light level?

I told my girlfriend id be done before christmas in 2015...you should ask her to just fill out the divorce papers for you now so you can get back to that sweet sweet grind.

 

[psynergylover]

yeah that should legit just be 40 kills on titan. Sure you haven't just already completed it, by any chance...? They reset daily.

I'm looking at "0%"....

don't lnow what I'm doing wrong...

Edit: I was at the wrong fucking spot!!!

 

[CREMSteve]

I told my girlfriend id be done before christmas in 2015...you should ask her to just fill out the divorce papers for you now so you can get back to that sweet sweet grind.

No joke. Haven't played video games in ages, playing this the past three nights and my wife is ready to divorce me.

 

[carlsojo]

I'm looking at "0%"....

don't lnow what I'm doing wrong...

It isn't kills on titan, it's kills in Arcology where the last mission was on that planet. The Festering Halls? I think it's called.

 

[Djostikk]

Got a new challenge. 'Red legion Raiders Loot 3 cabal supply caches. Anyone know what these are about? Not as simple as opening chest on earth unfortunately

Same for me.

 

[LegitMcfalls]

No joke. Haven't played video games in ages, playing this the past three nights and my wife is ready to divorce me.

Just you wait until the raid launches. Probably about 3 or 4 hours of headset chat and very little outside interaction.

Do what I did...get your girl hooked on the game too!

 

[Hawkian]

I'm looking at "0%"....

don't lnow what I'm doing wrong...

weird well if it means actually in the arcology...

would be anything to the right of that circular border... Like around "solarium"

It isn't kills on titan, it's kills in Arcology where the last mission was on that planet. The Festering Halls? I think it's called.

Ah yep, there they are in there.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Failsafe is one of the few joke characters that actually works for me. I hate Cayde but Failsafe is sorta sparingly used in comparison.

Also I like Holliday, but does anyone else feel like her line reads come off as super weird sometimes? Like really long pauses and ending on a question? when it doesn't seem like the scene makes sense for that. It's like some of her dialogue was transplanted from a different scene entirely.

 

[Strider]

I found a handcannon with dragonfly, reload speed, and lightweight.

This is what gunslingin is all about

 

[Emitan]

What's weird is that after the campaign,

Spoiler

it's completely abandoned; I don't understand this, considering how bungie really pushed it in the marketing. There's no point to going there after the campaign. It's bizarre.

Spoiler

What really? Haven't finished the game yet but had it spoiled we go back to the tower. I was assuming we could use whichever hub we wanted. Why abandon it?

 

[darkwing]

Treasure maps from Cayde.

already bought them lol

also any reason to hold off opening legendary engrams?

 

[MythicReclaimer]

Spoiler

1.) Complete the main story and all follow-up EDZ story missions
2.) Get the Mida Mini-Tool from Devrim Kay as a quest reward
3.) With a Scout Rifle, get 50 precision kills and 25 kills without reloading
4.) Dismantle five Blue or Legendary Scout Rifles
5.) Get 50 airborne kills with an SMG

How do you get Step 3 to show up? I've done one 1/2 but I'm not seeing Step 3 in my Milestones or being tracked anywhere else. Devrim Kay didn't say anything about Step 3. I'm assuming it can be any Scout Rifle to complete Step 3, right?

 

[Triz]

So the random hidden stuff you find through the game that you scan with the ghost...is it tracked like destiny 1? Or is it just filler

 

[BakedTanooki]

Soundtrack is incredible in the original Destiny too! You can listen on Spotify but I'd say it's still worth a playthrough if you get a chance.

I think you are right. I should play the first game too, after experiencing the awesomeness of Destiny now.

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

Is the campaign short? I feel like it's going to end soon enough and i'm on the 2nd mission of Io.
