Just a single new strike? So this is another one of the small expansions?

Does that mean there are two strikes on PS4 or are they actually not screwing Xbox players over this time?

We will only find that out if PS blog announces exclusive content. In the past Bungie does not mention the exclusive content themselves.

Interesting. Thanks

 

[lt519]

Woah, didn't read everything, if the raid is actually just a Horde/Wave type mode I may just be skipping out on this. I want new mechanics to figure out, not just fighting waves of enemies presumably from some spot people find to cheese from.

 

[BokehKing]

i'm pretty sure he means that level 32 gear will be released.

They are not doing that again, they said it was a mistake last time

 

[Valor]

I wonder if anyone will care by May 20th

 

[joecanada]

Everyone get ready for one new raid and then a handful of stupid missions using recycled content and maps!!!!! Oh, and for good measure, they will add a handful of weapons that are terrible and no one will use!!

/cry

I'll be back but I don't have much hope...

Holy shit I thought you loved destiny. All hope just died for my 99 dollarsspent on CE

 

[GuitarAtomik]

The vendor gear last time got you a level higher than the raid gear. If it only puts you on par, then it doesn't really invalidate it (not nearly as much at least).

 

[mocoworm]

Hopefully they will let you use ascendant and radiant shards again. It's crazy that I have so many stocked up.

 

[Tovarisc]

I wonder if this DLC will give middle finger to all players who have put a lot time into 1st DLC, just like 1st DLC gave such finger to Vanilla players who put a lot hours into that. Suddenly all that time you used to gear up and maintain variety of gear was wasted time as you had to recollect and relevel everything.

 

[gatti-man]

What mechanic? It isn't too difficult to jump from 1 to 20, and so on. Just work on the Vanguard strikes, and upgrade your light gear.

This isn't like WoW when the game is over 10 years old, and the level cap is 100. When a third or fourth Destiny expansion is released, then maybe we will see such mechanic.

Well last time they offered quick lvl 31 gear through vanguard and Pvp commendations.

 

[mocoworm]

What is the new level cap?

 

[falconxcrunner09]

What is the new level cap?

IIRC from the data mining, it would be 39.

Edit: Just checked, its 39

Edit2: I misread the information, its 39 light for each piece of armor. Max level should be around 33-34

 

[mocoworm]

IIRC from the data mining, it would be 39.

That's insane! From 32??

 

[celestial body]

Well it looks like there will be a new 'social' space at least. That already puts it above TDB.

I think 39 is rumoured to be the new vanguard gear light level no?

 

[Deku Tree]

That's insane! From 32??

No it's probably 34 or maybe 35. Don't believe it'll be 39.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

That's insane! From 32??

Oops, I misread the info. 39 light for each piece of armor. So you can hit Light Level 34 potentially actually.

 

[Un4]

Well, i still play Crota every week with a bunch of friends so i'm happy with the news.
Finally some incentive to get my Warlock up to level 32.

 

[qa_engineer]

No it's probably 34 or maybe 35. Don't believe it'll be 39.

The guy who leaked it did the leg work and was able to determine the level cap of 39. He got everything else right so there is no reason not to believe it. Unless you have a better source?

Yeah, 33 light = lv30 36 light=lv32 39 light =34?

 

[qa_engineer]

Yeah, 33 light = lv30 36 light=lv32 39 light =34?

ahh I too misread. I thought it was level cap.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

The guy who leaked it did the leg work and was able to determine the level cap of 39. He got everything else right so there is no reason not to believe it. Unless you have a better source?

No he is right. I always thought the new level cap would be 39. But I misread it, the megamanexe leak says 39 light for each piece of armorarmor, not light level. That beings you to 33. With raid gear, you can hit 34.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Yeah, 33 light = lv30 36 light=lv32 39 light =34?

You can hit 33 with 39 light. So you can hit 34 possibly with the raid gear.

 

[shanafan]

Do you think Bungie might offer a discount on the expansion pass with House of Wolves?

I play Destiny on both Xbox One and PS4, and I have the expansion for Xbox One, but not for PS4. Think they might do any form of discount if you do not have Dark Below?

 

[Wildarmsjecht]

I focused on one character because WARLOCKS RULE, FOOL!!

But I think it's time I work on getting 2 new classes up to raid levels to farm out what I need properly.

Tingles in my body, Destiny has done it to me.

 

[Deku Tree]

Yeah, 33 light = lv30 36 light=lv32 39 light =34?

Nope. It's

30 light x4 = 120 light = level 30

33 light x4 = 132 light = level 31
36 light x4 = 144 light = level 32

so probably

39 light x4 = 156 light = level 33
42 light x4 = 168 light = level 34

 

[PooBone]

Came to see some pricing info and hopefully something new.

I found neither.

 

[biteren]

im just gonna wait for the "GOTY" edition with all the DLC, and thats if im even interested in Destiny still.

 

[Orochinagis]

Nope. It's

30 light x4 = 120 light = level 30

33 light x4 = 132 light = level 31
36 light x4 = 144 light = level 32

so probably

39 light x4 = 156 light = level 33
42 light x4 = 168 light = level 34

Oh I see thanks for the clarification.

Check out the dates below the trailer on the Bungie page for further details.

$19,99 per expansion or $34,99 for the pass.

Wow. So true, and yet I still play a lot.

I hate the direct price conversion they did for other regions.

Even with the UK 20% vat on top it's still cheaper to buy the american dlc from the xbox marketplace by around £6.50

The expansion pass was ridiculously overpriced.

 

[Mindlog]

Kind of a lame hype video with no run through of the content other than the single player event that's been cooking for quite some time.
As a Destiny fan this game has fallen woefully short of the 'living' - 'television season' whatever those words were used to describe the constant stream of content we were supposed to get.

Again, not making direct comparisons here. But maybe...

[CraigerGamer]

Are we not getting another raid?

Please Bungie, not like this.

 

[Drain You]

If there is no new Raid I really can't see myself getting back into it.

 

[radeonxt]

Can you buy house of wolves if you haven't got dark below? :S

 

[codhand]

oh yeah, Destiny.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Can you buy house of wolves if you haven't got dark below? :S

Yes

 

[Ombala]

Im not falling for this again. Last DLC was the most overpriced DLC ive bought.

 

[Kor of Memory]

Im not falling for this again. Last DLC was the most overpriced DLC ive bought.

Really? What would you consider fair?

For me (on PS4). $17.50 (or even 20 bucks) isn't that bad consdering.

I remember paying $12 for a 3 map pack in Halo 3/Reach.

Here I'm still getting a 3 map pack for multi, plus 2 strikes, plus some missions, plus some exotics, plus a raid. I'd say that all makes up for the extra $8, and then some.

 

[mocoworm]

House of wolves will not include a new raid

Big mistake from Bungie. HUGE mistake.

Quick to judge. Prison of Elders sounds cool, so let's just hang onto our shorts before we jump to any decisions.

That's the same for all mmos when new content is released.

 

[HaleStorm]

I said this after the beta too.

I thought that could not possibly be everything for earth, yet it was.

I have put in far more hours that I am willing to admit, but shortly after tDB came out, I burned out. I took a couple week break inthere as well before tDB.

No new raid? Was there going to be one, but they decided fuck it because the last one was so laughably broken?

Also, I could have sworn that raids were advertised at launch as being part of each expansion. seems like hot garbage to be charged that much for what ultimately amount to about 3 hours of new content tops.

even though I already paid, I don't see my self spending much, if any time on this.
