Is there a way to un-upgrade something in your subclass? I have the bladedancer subclass going and upgraded the thing that adds an extra attack when pressing RT. Now I don't blade dance, I spin on the spot?

I applied the same upgrade and proceeded to eat dirt the next four times I supered. :/

I'm hoping the next upgrade is worth it.
 
This is the Destiny positive opinion thread.

That sounds amazing.

Really, step one should be making the Grimoire accessible in-game (have they ever given a justification for why it isn't?), but adding a scan option would be great.

They have the perfect tool for this with the Ghosts, getting to the
library on the moon for example, a great opportunity to reveal more on the history of Earth, the golden age or even the existence of exo and the fallen
The gameplay in the game is fantastic. I love the art direction and graphics. However in terms of story telling and the mission design the game leaves a lot to be desired. I know Halo: CE was designed to be a much tighter experience than destiny in terms of level design and enemy encounter, but I expected a lot more in this department from the people who gave us the Silent Cartographer.

you can change back any time you want

mid boss fight. mid pvp. alive. dead. doesn't matter

you can change subclasses like you change weapons
 
Sorry, PS4 here

Looking for people do the weekly strike with as well though. It's tough as hell.

I'll attempt it once I get to lvl 22. The lvl 20 strike was fun as hell though, I'm kind of mad it only gives you 2 marks and like 20 rep. You can do 2 patrols on earth in a minute and get that much rep.

I think the core problem with the level design is that a lot of the levels have to function as throughways rather than just places to fight. It really limits their options.
 
It really doesn't make sense at all to me either. It's like, they clearly spent a lot of time developing this universe with all this relatively interesting lore, but they made it such an unnecessary hassle to learn anything about it. For a game that seems to be striving for easy accessibility from a gameplay and mechanical perspective, the storytelling is anything but.

Agreed. It would ake up for the problems with the story(somewhat) well not really but it would offer more. The need to go elsewhere is stopping a lot of people from even knowing to go there or wanting to. The game has a lot of separate parts that didn't get pushed together.

As others have said, have the Ghosts you find tell you stories about the world from a room in the Tower sort of like the Jedi Library. That would be interesting for sure.
 
Finished the game. Wasn't sure it was even the end till the cutscene. Not sure what to think besides the cutscene was kinds cool, whereas everything that led up to it was just okay.

I love how
the stranger or whatever said something along the lines of "This is just the start" and all I could think was yeah where's the rest of the game? :/

Dear lord that screams DLC....sounds like we payed for story alah asuras wrath style....as in DLC required to finish the story
 
So I found out that New Monarchy may likely be the "best" faction to reach towards if you're a Titan, since they have gear that specializes in Strength and Intellect which is great for melee and super recharging, respectively.

Though I have to still compare the factions to the Crucible gear and the Vanguard gear and see which ones I'd like to work towards.
 
So I'm around level 4 and I still haven't been able to play any of the mission type thing with anyone else. Are the servers screwed up?
Game is boring me playing by myself.
 
So far hand cannons and pulse rifles seem to be the only usable primary weapons. Scout rifles and auto rifles got nerfed hard.
 
That full auto option is fucking amazing.

It's blowing my mind I need it now.

Add some of us and get a fireteam going.

In order to level up a subclass do you need to have it active?

yeah

I dunno about that, I've been destroying people with the scout rifle.

Where do I get a cape for my hunter?

I'm still using the one I started with which is so tiny it's basically a scarf.

I'm level 8 btw.

Talk to the encryption lady at the tower.

auto rifles are pvp only for me right now.

scout rifles... man, there's still a place for them - but its hard to go from the hand cannon back to the scout rifle. especially if you have a handcannon with a decent clip size.
 
Been in these Destiny thread for over 1 year now. Now the game drops and I barely have time to play. Sucks being a senior in university. Hoping I get to finish the story this weekend. Can anyone say how long it is?
 
Still loving Destiny! I haven't even completed all the moon story missions yet. I completed the moon strike and got to level 15 before stopping for the evening. Tomorrow I begin leveling Defender subclass.

A question about the Strange Coins, do you get one for every public event you complete? I've only played patrol for about 15 minutes with a friend so I've only gotten one so far.

It's crazy. I remember it was the exact opposite in the beta. All I used was scout or auto.

You can finish the story in a weekend easy.
One day if you go hard.

Like maybe 6-7 hours? Not sure, I sunk at least an hour or two into multiplayer while I was beating the campaign.
 
I want to get an XB1 Fireteam going! Level 20+ please. Gamertag = kittens dx!
 
So I was just doing some missions on Patrol on Venus when a public event got triggered, so I pressed the touch pad to see where it was on the map, but all the markers just point to other mission beacons (the green flashing ones). How am I supposed to know where the public event takes place?
 
How does this game "start" at LV20?

Am I missing somthing? It feels like all there is to do is to either play PvP, or do the exact same missions again where enemies die the same amount, but I die faster, for better equipment to fight the same enemies etc.

=( 6 hours it took. I thought getting to LV20 would be like playing Hard mode in PSO or something.

Look for the other players

you don't need the touchpad for it. a beacon will pop up in your normal hud

True, however strikes could have been a perfect opportunity for this. Using the loot you've gained on the planet to fight through well designed levels along side two other guardians, with a memorable enemy encounter to top it off instead of the bullet sponges we are given. I understand people don't want a Halo like experience from Destiny, but ending strikes with skirmishes that give me the same level of excitement as the double scarab fight from Halo 3; I would return to play them countless times at higher difficulties. Reward us with greater loot and it'd have me returning to Destiny throughout this generation.

I really hope bungie knock it out of the park with the vault of glass raid, just need to find peeps to play it with ><
