Bailed on my own birthday party to get on Destiny... for this!

im sitting here with the birthday cake.

Seems to stem from destinytracker.com showing each new prestige level costing more xp per level. Reddit has a thread about it as well.

Feels like I'm getting them at the same pace I had been. If it is an increase it doesn't seem noticeable to me as of yet.

 

[WizzNARD]

I'm not sure where people are getting this info about the post 20 bright engram stuff. I really don't think it's taking longer as you go. Seems the same to me, unless you got the well rested buff and what not.

I think it's just hearsay from people pissed about the micro transactions eververse stuff. I don't have a stand on it either way, don't really care too much to be honest. But I'm like 99% sure that there is no increase. If there is I'll gladly admit I'm wrong.

 

[Wallach]

This isn't true as it works the same as Destiny did with Motes of Light. It's the same amount of XP once you hit Level 20 and thereafter.

This is false. The API exposes the XP value on DestinyTracker, so this is pretty visible now.

5 levels in it begins to scale up every level thereafter. I have not yet seen anyone claim to have found a cap on this increase.

WTF servers are down, I have to actually listen to the meeting I'm in at work thanks Bungle.

Could this be like a visual bug or something? I really do not notice a difference at all

 

[commish]

I thought "who cares" about the shader change, but I can't lie, last night I spent a good 60 minutes trying to figure out which shader to use. It was like trying on different outfits.

I weirdly like the change now because my choices are more meaningful. Sounds stupid but that's how I see it.

Sorry for late replies but I actually got off GAF. He's just got a touch of jaundice. Nothing too serious but it doesn't make watching him under the lights any easier.

Yep been there. Billie Blanket and all. He will be fine. Congrats on the new born and good luck with the rest of the adventure.

I think I seen it was 60k per level on that tracker site

 

[Lizzy]

Servers are still down? Pre-order cancelled.

 

[Gaiaknight]

50 more min till we here about another delay

 

[Dalek]

������ this thread is too much

 

[Pandora012]

So I'd just to delete a character every now and again to get my 3 bright engrams and then level a bit more. Repeat. Kinda tempted, but not sure.

I am, which makes sense to me because I have played a ton since release, but unlike the folks powerleveling alts it has all gone into my Titan.

 

[Kyne]

missing parties and being stuck at hospitals wtf is wrong with you people

 

[WizzNARD]

Huh, well I guess I'm wrong. I'll still say I don't notice a difference at all, and I've played close to 40 hours(I think? Maybe not, but close) all on my Titan

Congratulations on the KinderGuardian buddy! Hope things get better with the jaundice (I know next to nothing about it sorry).

We're gaffers. We have huge penii (even the women), and we like to make our voices heard. I've started a class action against Bungie.

I can only imagine hope he gets better soon x

First time with Destiny, and I can't get to the menu at all.

"Destiny 2 is temporarily at capacity"

"Destiny 2 servers are not available"

Wtf is this shit? Great first impression.

 

[Bizazedo]

Huh, well I guess I'm wrong. I'll still say I don't notice a difference at all. I already said it, but is it possible that this is a bug or something? Like it said that, but it's not actually happening?

It's Bungie, you never can tell.

Remember when we all thought losing heavy ammo after death was a feature in D1?

Relax, you just had the bad luck of coming in during a maintainance that's taking longer than expected.

Y'all got any more of them Totem check points?

Bad timing Today is a schedule server fix day where it is just taking them longer than usual to get the servers back up.

LMAO I immediately thought of the scene from don't be a menace when he's swinging all pissed knocking kids out

Lol you missed the one where the poster said he skipped a class having to do with his college dissertation

Sell it. Online games arent for you. Never buy an MMO either, it could take years off your life.

 

[noomi]

I swear OT2 before maintenance is up.

JohnOfMars you best be ready!

 

[MythicReclaimer]

I am, which makes sense to me because I have played a ton since release, but unlike the folks powerleveling alts it has all gone into my Titan.

I've leveled three characters (one of each class) to around 290 PL and haven't noticed it slowing down as far as XP for Bright Engrams. I mean if the numbers say it is then I guess it is but it hasn't been noticeable at all for me as of yet. In fact I've felt like they were coming rather fast and furiously to be honest which kept me out of the "shader" discussion. Felt just like getting/earning Motes of Light from the last couple years in Destiny (I can't remember how it was in Year 1).

In any case if this becomes a huge issue it will be adjusted in some fashion.

 

[level1]

I expect to find a free exotic engram at the postmaster when I log back in. Get on it bungie.

Phew, glad to hear. I thought this was just the norm.

Any eta when it will be backup?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Man, there's some serious anger going on over the maintenance window.

 

[speiky]

Anyone know how much the shaders cost that Tess sells this week?

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

ugh....get it together Bung.

Was hoping to play today because I can't play later tonight :''''(

 

[eizarus]

45 minutes from now apparently. No idea what that's based on (it was supposed to be over 2 hours ago). My guess is that Bungie deleted all of our characters and data.

 

[Wallach]

40 dust per.

 

[black stig]

At least I can keep up with DGAF now! Some good posts related to

Spoiler

The Speaker

.

Hope the extended downtime isn't an indication of backend difficulties. Think Bungie are on record saying D1 was a pig to update.

 

[Lucifon]

This is one crazy long maintenance. Basically left me unable to play the game for my full free time today only a week after launch Fortnite battle royale is entertaining me though.

 

[SlimySnake]

This maintainence ��

I'd advise against anyone skipping their own birthday party to play a video game

 

[NullMoon]

Anyone on Xbox looking to do the raid tomorrow? Trying to assemble a group, so far I have two guaranteed my self included. I have an 283 Warlock, and my brother is a 276 Titan. Also, we'll be running Nightfall, Flashpoints, etc. tonight in preperation for the raid. Shoot me a message on either here or Xbox Live if you are interested. Gamertag is Null Moon.
