[SaganIsGOAT]

Damn, 22 OTs. Holy moly.

 

[TheOddOne]

Never heard of this videogame.

 

[Twilight Gap]

best title

bogue you update the thread links?

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

People still play this game? Kappa

 

[FiraB]

Need two for ToO, anyone not started yet want to smash it out?

 

[Nonoriri]

I hope my newly ascended Thorn can get me that snazzy warlock ToO chest!

 

[Namikaze1]

I humbly request Fig's or Zoba's PvP services. I just need 3 wins. I'll owe you one or two or several.

 

[lazybones18]

I'll be up for more trials in like 2 hours

 

[Nori Chan]

Why does the title have a diamond? The only reason it had a diamond before was because of 21 lol

 

[nOoblet16]

First page again !

ToO is love ToO is life.

 

[DY_nasty]

PoE 32 full. sorry guys

 

[kittens]

XBONERS

Play ToO with me :-(

 

[Darryl M R]

Trials is pretty neat. It's fun watching all the different strats other teams use. Didn't get to nine wins on my first card, but got enough to get the chest piece and that's what I really wanted.

Also gave me enough passage coins to rebuy all the buffs. Nice.

Will be down to 34/35 PoE or ToO later.

Glorious.

That blows. Thanks for the heads up. Will keep a spot clear.

What color shader is that? God damn.

Also in ToO teams forming soon?

 

[thebigmanjosh]

New post for new OT

Need 2 people for lvl35PoE PSN: joshcbrugby

 

[EJRobinson90]

Nice new OT!

I must say that I proudly represented the OT title in ToO.

 

[Deku Tree]

Woo hoo

 

[Mattdaddy]

Anyone for 32 PoE?

psn Bicep_Curls

 

[DrDrizzay101]

best title

bogue you update the thread links?

Not yet. Scrubby OT is scrubby. Making Wall of Shame now, let me know what other stuff you'd like me to update. Still need to add your PvP call-outs post from yesterday.

Ugh, it stinks being so far behind with the thread and the game. Boo real life.

 

[LiK]

lol, dat title

 

[MrChowderClams]

that new OT smell

 

[Blue Ninja]

In the Game of Thorns you grind or you die.

 

[X-Frame]

Nice! Btw 22 is my lucky number.

EDIT: Damnit Blue Ninja!

 

[Hawkian]

took the title of the next gw2 OT, lol.

PVE players have 2 weekly etheric lights per characters and access to elemental primaries and 3 new exotics. I think it's pretty fair, I like this direction Bungie is going.

And a guaranteed top-tier armor piece for progression each week. It's a massive reversal in terms of the path to max level compared to launch and the first expansion.

I expect the reward schedule to be tweaked, in the relatively short term; perhaps up slightly for most PoE activites somehow, and down slightly for the amount available to the winningest teams in ToO. But I also expect whatever comes next that raises the level to ramp down the rate of progression a bit overall, and put it somewhere between TDB-era and the current frenzy.

 

[xplicitone]

Yes!! Hype

 

[xVaalbarAx]

yeah no joke great title.

 

[Stider]

[nOoblet16]

Is this the game with the most OTs ever on GAF?

 

[DrDrizzay101]

Why does the title have a diamond? The only reason it had a diamond before was because of 21 lol

Not sure what you mean "because of 21"

The diamond is for the light level symbol that shows up next to your players level once they go above Lv20. Every level above 20 has the symbol.

 

[rNilla]

When you play the game of thorns you DoT or you get DoT'd.

 

[Trakan]

Took like 12 engrams but I got all 3 new exotic helmets. I got another one I needed in the process as well. Nighthawk looks so good.

I think it's way smarter for Bungie to let the new exotics remain somewhat rare and give something people to play for than do what they did last time and give them all away on week 1.

 

[Hawkian]

Thanks for doing it all regardless. Hope everything is going as smoothly as possible IRL.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

1 week!

 

[Forerunner]

First page again !

ToO is love ToO is life.

It is pretty fun, however I'm not a huge fan of Burning Shrine (pretty skybox though!) Hopefully next week is Rusted Lands.

 

[Mindlog]

New thread for new news. No wait that's not right.
New thread for newness.

What color shader is that? God damn.

Bittersteel. It's one of the Dead Orbit faction shaders.

Aahhh! That's clever.

 

[Orthogonal]

Perfect subtitle name.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

In the Game of Thorns you grind or you die.

I like this

 

[blackjaw]

0-9 on trials

This shit is hard if you:

-are not 34
-casual pvp player
-don't have thorn

Also, if you don't get kills you don't get a super, heavily skews match towards the 'better' pvp players

Highlight was brute force winning a match by bum rushing them when they hid only to have their warlock revive then jump jump jump around and get a Titan up who just use his lvl34 revive shield to wreck our shit and go on to win the match.

Unfortunately ToO might not be me. I'll try again at 34

 

[Hawkian]

Why does the title have a diamond? The only reason it had a diamond before was because of 21 lol

lol... wut?

 

[BMO = GOAT]

Anyone up for ToO? Psn is Router_Go_Vroom

 

[FiraB]

I'll join you
PSN Stider

Need one more for trails

 

[hydruxo]

In the Game of Thorns you grind or you die.

 

[Blue Ninja]

I'm going to sleep. Tomorrow I will face the trials of Osiris, to get my hands on some etheric light.

I will fail horribly.

Good luck, Guardians, and good night.

 

[Anastasis]

22 OTs baby! We're just getting started!

 

[Falifax]

Three treasure keys, from the same crate, in a row.

 

[AmateurHour212]

ToO is a fucking slaughterhouse today.

Yikes.

 

[GRIP]

cool.

Need one more for trails

I'll join but not using a mic. If that's a problem no big deal.

PSN is GriP17-

 

[goldensun]

I have a question for everyone and anyone who has been playing since launch:

Is the new expansion enough to merit getting back into Destiny?

I played Destiny from launch all the way until I got everything I needed after The Dark Below came out. I had my character's light level maxed, had all of the weapons I wanted, etc. I stopped playing Destiny because I was tired of how I had to wait a whole week to cycle the same raid to pray to RNGesus that my drop was what I wanted. I did enjoy the weekly nightfalls and strikes, but the game just became stale to me.

Again, I want to know anyone's opinion on how much content and depth this new expansion adds to Destiny after TDB. Thanks for your inputs guys!

OT dos dos
lehs go!
