Are these rewards from others in your group having completed the Nightfall (and Crucible stuff)? If so, can you let us know what you received?

I've done nothing with with my clan so others completing it.

 

[neoism]

are you thinking of the gatling gun legendary? that's not a Machine Gun technically

No the machine gun from d1 that were heavys but it was moved to the first slot in d2
They were in the beta...
But I guess they are gone because I've played about 20 hours and gotten 0 😑

 

[JHall]

Nightstalker super not being a one hit kill in PvP is really dumb.

 

[KeRaSh]

So my clanmates got a clan item from Hawthorne and see their clan stats in the menu. I'm the clan leader but I can't get the item and the menu says clans are unavailable. Are they rolling the feature out gradually or what's the deal here?

Seems like it. Once I logged out and back in, though, I had it.

Log out of the game and log back in. They said in their blog post this was required.

What is the well rested buff and how did I get it?

It speeds up the first three levels you gain after 20 so you can get three bright engrams faster. I think it automatically applies once a week.

 

[Parmadillo Marshmallow]

The story is so damn easy, I don't understand why they level-restricted anything. I don't want to do these boring "Adventures" (euphemism for "side quests") just to meet the hard-coded level restriction.

I don't know, it might seem like a petty reason to complain, but this whole level-restricted campaign is the straw that broke the camel's back. There are just too many core gaming concepts this game missed and that I find unenjoyable: 30 fps, aim acceleration, and ads sensitivity being the worst offenders.

I guess Destiny just isn't for me.

Well there's way more to the game than just the campaign missions, but you do you.

They weren't in the beta. Sweet Business, the gatling gun exotic auto rifle, must be what you are thinking of.

I hope they come back though. I liked them.

 

[LucidMomentum]

The wait will be worth trust me... 60 fps worth it

That demo ran like butter on my 980Ti, you know I'm jonesing...

 

[BiGBoSSMk23]

Holy shit...

I just finished the first mission on Nessus with that Failsafe AI and the Ghost and ughhhhh...

I can't...

They clearly don't give a shit.

Fuck it.

 

[CouchDweller]

So i heard the PS4 version is getting HDR capability. Is that only on the Pro? Has it been added in yet even?

Oh lol did everyone have that at the start? I really can't remember the beta much 😂😑
But that's a damn shame sub machine guns are cool and everything but you have to be up the enemies nose to be effective.

There's a sticker on the Destiny Pro bundles that says HDR is coming but didn't really give specifics.

 

[Raven117]

Man, there are some kinderguardians in here that truly don't know what "grinding" can really mean in Destiny.

A few adventures, a public event or two a grind does not make.

Level restricted story missions? D1 didn't have that, did it?

Didn't someone just close-to-finish the campaign at level 13?

I'm pretty sure I'm heading into the final campaign mission and I'm only level 13. I've played some Crucible and done several public events as well. Is this normal? I was hoping to be 20 or close to 20 by the end of the campaign but I don't see that happening.

Oh haha

You can't select the final stretch of missions until you're level 15. There's a small stretch around 10 where you typically need to grind a bit and one just before 15. This is normal. Just about everyone is finishing at level 20 around power level 200, just doing the story and a few pub events if you see them.

This does kinda blow...

 

[Blue Ninja]

Hit 268, not sure how to proceed now. Legendaries somehow don't drop above 265 anymore. :lol

 

[pantsmith]

Woops responded to the wrong thread.

 

[Star Falcon]

Minor thing. Has anyone else received unexpected Veteran Account emblems? I never played during Year One, but i got the Emblem for it. Conversely, i beat Kings Fall several times during Year 2 but i didnt get the Oryx emblem...

 

[ZeoVGM]

Is there a chart to reaching max light? Like what activities you should switch to doing at different levels?

 

[Parmadillo Marshmallow]

Well there's way more to the game than just the campaign missions, but you do you.

I'm not arguing that there isn't enough to do. There certainly is plenty to do. But it's all at 30 fps with heavy aim acceleration and too sensitive ads speeds. I guess it's the engine itself that I don't like, more than anything. If they could have gotten the fps basics down, then I would have tolerated the level-restricted campaign. As I said, the level-restriction was a relatively petty straw that broke the camel's back.

 

[Vic_Viper]

I read someone's post earlier this morning saying your alt will level faster than your first character. Is this true, and if so how does it work? Do I need to get my main to the Cap first before my alt will get the bonus xp? Or is it just from loot share?

Think I'm going to pick my Titan back up after playing Warlock for awhile but want to wait if it'll be quicker.

 

[JohnOfMars]

260 is the soft cap. You'll need to work on Milestones to progress.

PC Feels much smoother, my guy. If that's an option for you.

 

[JHall]

Gunslinger is king now.

 

[Draper]

Man, I swear to god I just got an exotic from Tess, but it's not showing in my inventory

 

[Tovarisc]

Hit 368, not sure how to proceed now. Legendaries somehow don't drop above 265 anymore. :lol

• Do world quests (blue icon) and following exotic quests
• Hit up Nightfall
• Keep farming HM Public Events for lucky exotic engrams
• Milestones and Cayde's treasure maps

and some more pointers at http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=248289269&postcount=9963

 

[Alucrid]

eh if he doesn't like doing the side quests and doesn't like being locked out of content due to level i don't think he's going to like the rest of destiny, even on pc

 

[sn00zer]

This legitamatley might be my GOTY. Its Destiny, but much better, and its got an art direction that blows most other games out of the water. The environments are just incredible. Some really wild ideas at play.

Also if you dont like Destiny youre probably not going to suddenly like Destiny 2. Also Destiny in general is infintely better with a coop partner to the point I would say dont bother playing unless you have a coop buddy.

 

[level1]

You got an exotic ornament breh. It shows up in your inventory (the tab beneath shaders iirc)

As the guy who is quitting this game for various reasons, I will say that the environments and level design are absolutely stunning and probably the best I have ever seen in a game. Truly stunning.

 

[LiK]

Is my beloved Zhalo Supercell in this game?

 

[Staf]

So this may be too early to ask but... Will someone not interested in multiplayer or grinding for loot find some enjoyment in this game? The lack of story, or so i was told, was what kept me from getting Destiny 1.

Some of the story missions you almost have to stop and just admire the attention to detail.

Spoiler

The stealing of the Golden Age PC/Server or whatever it is was an amazing level

Can you join more than one clan?

Yo...u smaht

 

[Gold_Loot]

Level restricted story missions? D1 didn't have that, did it?

It's not a problem really. At that point, strikes, and challenges unlock. Do one or two of those and you're good to go. That's not including PvP or class quests.

 

[Lizzy]

I would also like to know this

Same!

 

[B00TE]

Titan lookin' fresh already:

That's sick. Where'd you get the chest piece?

 

[Mr_Antimatter]

Story done! Now the actual game begins.

Think i'll get my main to NF/raid worthy before I rush the story on my alts. Will probably have to remake my titan though, she looks terrible after the conversion.

 

[sn00zer]

I put art direction almost above all other things when I play games. I was just generally shocked how much of a stunner this game ended up being. The 'graphics are ok but nothing special' comments in reviews kinda reinforce my mantra of graphics are a small part of what makes a game look good.

 

[Tovarisc]

Titan lookin' fresh already:

That fur looks kinda bad :/ Shame as otherwise that is cool looking armor set.

 

[theifofdreams]

So does having a small clan fuck you in rewards as much as it seems to?

 

[LNBL]

Titan lookin' fresh already:

I got the same chest piece, i love it

 

[gatti-man]

Light level 215 and I'm really liking end game so far.
