Anyone been able to successfully redeem their virgin media sparrow?

It says my code has already been sent, I contact virgin and they it's an error their end and will be resolved soon.

As described, it's broke for all.

Damn my VoG remembrance screenshot hit me right in the feels.
Everyone in that group besides me no longer plays Destiny I still talk to most of them occasionally but I miss playing games with that group... Pretty much gone separate ways. FeelsSadMan

 

[FinKL]

Its alright.

Load times might be a little long and still 30fps.

It feels like there are some frame dips too on One S

I bought the game. You and Marvel made me do it. You guys suck.

I wish adventures and other missions would scale difficulty based on my current level. I seem to always level up far faster than the mission I'm supposed to be on..and I'm even just focusing on red legion campaign. I'm one shotting regular enemies and it takes me like 2-3 precision shots to kill stringer enemies like captains and knights.

 

[Alebelly]

Do the rewards from lost sectors scale? Should I avoid those until I am higher light?

Im 3/4 way through and all rewards and drops have scaled to my level, even if I play lower level public events

 

[Crash331]

Anyone able to offer a answer, Coldheart code is it in the game box or do you get it via email?

I ordered from BestBuy and I got both, email and game insert.

 

[The Jazz Cabbage Master]

This game is the real deal. Well done Bungie, you surpassed my reasonable expectations by a wide margin.

 

[nOoblet16]

Hit level 20, time for a nap!

I am kind've confused as to why leveling up happens so fast? I didn't finish the story, did two strikes, no multi, barely explored the worlds... Yet I'm at max level already? Seems like it could've been slowed down a ton... Especially considering every weapon you get you replace almost immediately on the next drop anyway. Just odd how fast this is all happening, I don't recall Destiny 1 having such a fast leveling system, but maybe I'm wrong?

Either way, so far loving the game!

That was kind of the point of making everything reward you with loot considering how bad it was in Destiny and I'm fine with that. Hitting level 20 is not the real progression and as such the sooner it gets done the better. The real progression will come after that when you are trying to hit the last 60-80 power levels and have to play end game content to progress. And it's here that they need to strike a right balance, do it too soon and you don't have much value added to endgame content, do it too slow and you get forever 29 esque progression.

Work is awful today. I scheduled a big, laborious project today for a client and I'm severely lacking the energy I should have thanks to staying up late playing.

Nightstalker.

Where & how?

Farm and level 20.

My thoughts exactly.

We will see about end game content, but so far, homerun.

Thanks I just said screw it and opened it, it was in the box so all good.

Downloading the 6gb patch atm...

 

[VE3TRO]

So anyone who HAS started the game. I've done some screens of that opening reward display for those who'd like wallpapers.

The items unlock when you get to lvl 20. You can confirm one item, e-mote salute to verify. Thats the only loot unlocked at the start.

Man, that's just dumb

 

[RoboPlato]

It's real good. Hope you enjoy it!

 

[Darkgran]

Loving the game so far but the shooting feels a little off..

Not sure if it's just me.

 

[Landford]

Huge shout out to MarineMountie for gifting me the game because I am a broke Hunter. Let these kind gestures pile up just to show the absurd when someone says "Lol DGaf is a garbage community".

Thanks a lot man. Because of you I can take the Tower back!

Titan or Warlock, titan or warlock...not sure which is gonna be first.

 

[Freeman76]

Quick question: are there any larger scale, Halo-esque battles in the campaign or are they more along the lines of the first Destiny? I loved the gameplay of Destiny but sorely missed the epic scale.

Yes there are some huge scale battles and it really feels like an evolution of Halo at times, you can often tell this is by the same dudes. Less vehicle combat but otherwise, its the best Bungie have done imo. The maps are huge and intricate, the public events can get manic as fuck, Lost Sectors are short but very sweet. As a big Bungie Halo fan this is exactly what I wanted from Bungie after D1 (which I also really enjoyed)

The only thing Halo has over this in my thoughts, is the enemy design of Halo was more my taste, the covenant were just so damn cool. Having said that the villain in this is really fucking stylish, a cross between Bane and Vader!

 

[Darkgran]

Titan or Warlock, titan or warlock...not sure which is gonna be first.

Warlock. Now go play.

 

[ZeoVGM]

No answer on the Rockstar engrams?

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Still have 20mins of patch to dl.

Did they dramatically change this from Destiny 1? No matter what you did at any level, it was always satisfying and not completely without challenge...

 

[SpudBud]

Failsafe is my favorite new character so far. Legit funny stuff in this game.

 

[RoninChaos]

Any specs for PC?

 

[Mutagenic]

One thing I felt while playing last night was how incredibly slow strafing was with my hunter. I was wielding a gun that was supposed to give me increased move speed. I do have the roll, and I'm sure other gear might help with it, but damn.

 

[ShinAmano]

Same.

Spoiler

we killed atheon as the screen blacked out with the last tick of a solar grenade. Brought back amazing victorious memories. Then Crota has 2 randoms. Oryx was 3 different friends (my back up raiders), and 2 randoms. Wrath of the Machine was all randoms from lfg destiny... was sad watching my friends go away through my accomplishments.

It's the only choice

 

[FinKL]

Well then make a Titan. You have a moon named after you how much more bad ass can you get

Hunters are my first choice though

 

[Hawkian]

I am loving Titan. such a cool, well-executed sci-fi location

 

[Sora_N]

Whichever you think sounds fun. That's about it.

Hunter was always the most fun and easiest for me to play.



Got it thanks.

Thanks, I think I'll try Warlock though. See how it goes. Can't wait to get home tonight.

Didn't feel that way at all to me. Felt just as good as Destiny 1 if not better, to me.

Nightstalker Hunter, the only choice for those with skill.

[Inceptional]

Just finished the opening segment and hot damn, now that's how you start a game. Makes the openng to the first game look even more pitiful than it already did.

 

[orichalcos]

I reachd the end of story. After 12 hours. It was better than Destiny 1. Next step: strikes, crucible, max level/power.

 

[ExtinctionEvent]

This is the game D1 was meant to be, so good.

 

[PackAPunchedMick]

Ok. Thanks for the info.

Typical virgin media. If it ain't my router, it's my TiVo box, of it ain't my TiVo box it's my sparrow code

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Probably been asked, but are there any real PS4Pro enhancements?

How do you get your preorder stuff. There's nothing at the post master.

I'm from UK and my main account is American.

If you're asking whether this game account/region locks the digital purchase or progression (like FFXIV) then no it doesn't.

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Is hunter a bad choice?

Warlock and titans have heals and attack buffs/shields respectively. Hunters have dodge roll. At first it seems hunters don't have much in terms of support, but you'll eventually be able to debuff bosses and turn you and your allies invisible. I even saw someone using their dodge roll to bait large enemies attacks by rolling through their melee while the rest Dps. I like healing so I chose warlock cuz I like heals but they all have neat tricks.

On the offensive side, warlocks are space magicy stuff like area of effect damage and fast self heals and super recharging. Titans are defensive and bruce force offensive. Hunters have more tricky and unique effects to help them like anchoring enemies, increase backstab melee strength, massive single shot bursts. They all have advantages and they're all stylish.
