So torn between the classes. I mained Warlock for D1 but my friend is also going Lock. Had a lot of fun with the titan in the beta but love hunter cloaks.

How is a man supposed to choose!
Are you me? I'm in the same position. My friends have already locked down Hunter and Warlock so I'm torn between playing Titan to round us out vs picking whatever I want.
 
HEY GUYS (FORGIVE THE CAPS BUT THIS IS LIKE TOWN CRIER STUFF)

Back in the OT's, every top of the page (that's 101st post, not 51st, mind you), we used to post something fun.

A gif..
A Destiny confession..
Introduce yourself, etc..

Come on we have to get it started again!! :)

Lol I thought the same thing when it rolled to p.2. Me thinks this thread will move too fast at first to keep up tradition!
Heck, I left for a couple hours and the thread doubled!
 
Someone talk me into canceling my CE from GameStop and just buying the digital collectors instead.

$99 vs $250 seems like a no brainer.
 
Destiny 1's OT completed by the time that the game launched.

OTs 2, 3 & 5 completed IN A DAY.

That's insane... I posted very little back then, and only started spamming the OT's around the Forever 29 era (I think?) :p

Wall of shame always shows the culprits!

I only need to sleep one more time before I play this game .

Hey Messy, I know we haven't played together for a while.... but was curious if you were picking up PS4 or PC? I'm getting both, but switching to PC as main after October 24th.

I see you playing PUBG on steam quite a bit (unless that is your brother). My time going forward will be super limited, but it would be awesome to play together again at some point and catch up since we haven't talked for quite a while :)
 
I barely played Destiny 1 and honestly cant remember much other then doing a little MP and a couple missions with friends but I didn't last long. I wasn't sure about getting this and now leaning towards yes with the 2 month gap before COD.

I heard in the first one it wasn't the best for solo players to do Raids and stuff....Is this one any different? Is there matchmaking for all the missions and everything the game has to offer or is this game only good if you have a regular group to play with?

Season pass worth it or you guys going regular for now?

Any help would be appreciated, I might pre order tonight
 
i just hope no one pays attention to the reviews, Destiny 1 got bad reviews and it's one of the best games i have ever played

cannot wait to lower the raid's boss health to 10% and then hear the magical words, "Guardian down"

Seems like made it more suitable for a solo player to find groups. So you can pretty much do everything main solo and easily find groups for group activities.

Holy shit!
 
Sorry if this has been asked before but what can we expect to see as bonuses for returning players, or is this still unknown? If known, will the bonuses be tied to your account or your character? I'd like to start fresh so I can change my dudes appearance, but I don't want to miss out on any extras.
 
Question regarding voice chat etiquette: When setting up voice chatting as a fire team, is Playstation party chat the preferred route or would I be expected to do something in discord?

Still unknown.

There are A LOT of "unknowns". I like it...
 
I think you need to quote the OP, and there will be a link to join our server.

Did you download the discord app on PC, they also have a really good app for ios/android.

Whats a PC? Lol Never use mine anymore..

I downloaded the app on my phone and tablet. I think I'm in the server now.

We still aren't 100% certain, I bet it's emblem/shader/emote though... Definitely something cosmetic.

They mentioned you would need to remain on the same platform for them however. So if you were PS4 for Destiny 1 and you switch to PC you won't get veteran rewards.

Needs to be PS4 > PS4 or XB1 > XB1

Question regarding voice chat etiquette: When setting up voice chatting as a fire team, is Playstation party chat the preferred route or would I be expected to do something in discord?

Discord will be great for PC, but we usually party chat for fireteams. In-game voice chat has pretty bad quality... rather it did in D1... not sure about D2.
 
Fucking bag is ugly. Steel book isn't worth $250. Pack ins are ehhh...

Go with base plus season pass for $89😊

Well the digital deluxe is $99 and comes with all the same emotes and emblems and stuff.

I really think that's what I'm going to do and I got both the Ghost edition and the taken king collectors. This thing just isnt anything I want or need. A statue or model of a sparrow anything is better than that bag.
 
Mained a Defender Titan in D1 so I'll focus on Sentinel to start. After that I might finally make a Warlock.

Looking forward to checking out the improvements to character creation.

There is matchmaking for all of the hardest stuff, and a method of in-game LFG for that stuff as well... but...

The game would by far be best experienced with the community you are in right now at your side :P

Season pass isn't worth it if you're not all in in the first place- specially cause you're talking about playing CoD which will be out right before the first D2 expansion.

You're good, account-based, as long as you're not switching platforms.
 
Do we have details about each classes yet? Guess I'll go Titan as D1, but I'd like to have a look at other abilities too before I commit to a class. Or else I'll just level all 3 before starting the end game, not sure how long this will take this time.
 
I don't know how you can review a vanilla Destiny game without at least playing through all the content and leveling a character to nearly max at least once and the raid releases on September 13 so...

Yeah, any review released within the first week or so is pretty worthless imo. A game like this needs a good chunk of time to really make a decision.
 
I doubt they'll wait that long, I fully expect to see most reviews out by the 11th.
Oh, there will be reviews out tomorrow. They'll just be largely meaningless.

And again I don't mean this as damage control. Even if positive, they're very simply not reviewing the full game without the raid. It's a difficult and unique subgenre to critique in one shot.
 
Destiny 2 will release and the PS Exclusive content in The Taken King and Rise of Iron will still not be on Xbox... and the same will happen to Destiny 2.

I love you Bungie, but fuck off (Activision too).

Good to know because I don't play many games with people on my friend list anymore but maybe I can find a group or clan here (Xbox) and maybe ill go regular version for now and if the game grabs me I can do Season Pass later
 
Do we know how the character transfer works? Can we transfer two of our characters and then make a new one for the third class?
 
Thanks

Check out the clans master list post in the OT, there are a couple of Xbox-focused ones to join!
 
So rolling launch by region means what exactly. I have a friend on the west coast but will his game be playable at 9 or Bungie keeps his region closed until 12 his time?
