I really like the game, but I'm really not seeing the point of playing a bunch more considering I've exhausted most of the beta content.

I know I'm never going to be amazing at the game or really good at PvP, but I'm okay with that.

Wow I'm terrible at PVP. I've only been able to log about 4 hours total so far with the game but both times I've joined the crucible I got rocked so hard. :( I'm actually really displeased with the frame rate. I know that's not really an excuse for sucking but more just a general observation that the frame rate is very low. I'm just one of those PC people with a 120hz monitor and the difference is astounding. I'm positive I'll get used to it, you always do. Buts impossible for me to look past right now.

Sooooo for iron banner do we just jump into the playlist on crucible, or do we have to talk to the new guy in the tower first? Also do we have to play as much in 2 hours as we can and then sprint back to the tower to redeem our rewards before the new guy disappears in 2 hours? Like how will we know how much we have to win before we can go get an item? I'm gonna have to get a friend to go check out the new guy while I'm playing or something haha.
 
Gotta stop running everywhere. Take your time, watch your motion sensors. I learned this the hard way.

Even then, I feel like speed is king most of the time.

When the opponent starts doing fancy shit like double jumping on your face or whatnot, the ones to best layeth bullet on them is still auto.

I've tried to bring the strengths of the scout rifle into the play, and I can't seem to do it well. It's easier to bring forth the strengths of the specials like sniper, fusion and shotty, but for primary? Eh...

That's cool, but I'm not saying "I'm doing horribly in PVP, what am I doing wrong?".
I'm saying "I find that I do well in PVP in general, but when I consistently lose fights, it's always against someone with an auto rifle. Also, when checking the postgame the top 2-3 people are always on auto rifles. Has anyone else noticed this?"

Now, weather it is because of playstyle or balancing, I don't know, but the autos almost always come out on top.

I used to think that auto rifles were king, but playing with other GAFfers last night, the top 2 members in our fire team were using scout rifles.

My Hunter so far, gonna try looking for more rare gear tomorrow. I did the Strike mission and couldn't pick up so many things because my armors will full. Didn't know they maxed at 10 so I missed so much. You live and learn I guess lol

I learned about the vaults just this morning. I pretty much store all of my under-leveled gear now so my setup screen is really easy to manage.

i think i'm starting to get bored. there really isn't much to do in the beta, especially with being capped at 8, i think if the cap was higher i would run down the strike mission countless more times to try and get better armor but alas

Anyone on PS3 want to fireteam up? I'm just starting out so i'm level 3 atm. PSN name is Gun__Violence, with two underscores. Sorry, no headset yet.

I'd really like to try the other subclass for each class, because I think I'm more interested in the other Warlock subclass and Hunter subclass then I am the main one, and that might determine which class I want to play on my main character.

I wonder if we can mix and match abilities from each subclass? Would be nice, but I doubt that will be the case... maybe we have to find some special item for it? :p

In case you didn't know:

Even though there is no cross play between PS4 and PS3, your characters are shared between the two platforms.

Just tried it on PS3 to see how they compare and my level 8 Warlock was there, with my settings and preferences fully synched up with the server and ready to use.

Thank God I actually checked this thread before jumping into Destiny, I would've missed out on this special event. So from what I've read, the special event is PvP only, for 2 hours and then u have to go speak to some guy in the tower?

Also you have to be level 5 to unlock PVP before you can participate in the event.

Little is the new Big
when you open the ghost it should be

Sparrow = square
orbit = triangle
Tower = r1+r2

or something I hate going to orbit just to go back to the tower.

Agree, need more options also the way to deal with different character equipment & the bank in an easier way than have to logout, go to character, go to the tower, wait for the loading screen then logging out, changing character and redoing the whole loading screen to move things from one character to the next. It takes too long.

I'm hoping retail will have a lot more shortcuts and improvement like that.
 
There's a ship that looks just like a stealth fighter.. must...have...

Yeah that's mine. Really smart.

I just took down Spider Tank on my own in Explore. Died a few times but hey :p

Also found this weird Alien black diamond shape enemy around from the ships. Was a ??? type thing with other tough enemies. Needless to say I died ha.
