Destiny |OT25| The Taken Thread

Yeah I know it'll get better. It's just I've never "raged" with a game. I play for fun and take it easy. The fifth anteater got to me,
I haven't been that pissed off in years. If the game has the power to piss me off that much, something is wrong :p

Game is deleted and Destiny addiction will break. This thread is a different kind of nicotine though, won't even pretend I'll stop posting :p

Hard Crota was my first rage. Trials has been my second rage. Losing constantly in trials is rage inducing even though I know for the most part I'm playing for fun but I want the armor and weapons and packages. And this shouldn't effect me but people that beg for carries without barely trying to get wins themselves, annoys me.

The past 4/5 weekends I've raged during Trials but I can't stop trying. Only 1 of those 4 weeks I've gotten higher than 7 wins. 2 of those weeks I couldn't even get 5 wins in ~40+ games.

Was gonna message ya to ToO last night but my buddy hopped on last second. Went 5-1 real quick and just stopped and played some Control. Felt bad me, you, and Durden couldn't get it done Sunday. It was a weird week, got the armor on all characters but something with that map wasn't clicking with me.

Oh dude Hard Crota was EPIC RAGE. I was SOOO done. That was awful.

Had surprising fun with Trials when I didn't care what happened. Played with Grim and Darryl last week and went 8-1 and was SHOCKED. I played OK? And our run was really fun too X!

Had some rage with Skolas but we got him down finally. :)

Javy you do what you have to do, but don't go anywhere. You're a calming voice of reason around here. :)
 
I took a 3 month break and got every other exotic except Hawkmoon.

This glitch with not getting anything after losing is really bad.

Got my Destiny-branded Red Bull today at 7-11. I will probably wait until tomorrow to redeem -- kind of anti-climactic though that the quest itself doesn't launch until September.

Ahh nice! It's alright. I played until about 1am CST and it took all of my willpower to NOT get out of bed and play with Danarchy/Terrordactyl when he posted around 30 minutes after. I dislike that map as well. It annoys me it's only partially symmetrical.

It was 3 months.

Ahh so maybe after they fix these server issues, it'll get in your loot table :p
 
The same thing happened last Iron Banana. We'd start getting our coins and rewards halfway through the next match. If you didn't keep playing, I don't think you got your rewards because I had a loss and then played later and never got the medallion.

Hahaha yea Cauldron was actually 1/5 that I didn't rage :p. I didn't care for the map at first but it grew on me like beer. The other 4 weekends weren't as good to me. I did enjoy Widows Court the most even though I didn't do as well. At least it gave for variations of play.

if the 50% buff works for iron banner rep and HoJ rep, im buying a case
its contents will go donw the drain thuogh lol
 
I would love to test 1 weekend where the Trials maps are on rotation. I bet it'd be a lot more fun.

Or you know, have another gametype that's a copy of trials but with map rotation. (not extermination, but literally is part of Trials)

You were sniping like a beast

but but but "strategy"

I had a great time palyning with Balze and EJ last week
althuogh the "strategy seems C side go outside A side go inside
seemed to work. but rotating maps would be fun

Yea I love the concept. And it's fun for a day or 2. After that it needs to change. My other suggestion if not perm rotating, would be change map daily or halfway (2 days each, even though it ends at am reset instead of noon when it goes live which bothers me haha)
 
I'm glad I didn't stay home after the reset. It makes the "glitch" that much sweeter because of the nonsense that's going on now that's inexcusable
 
You must be playing another game :D

Every time I open the trials load out of my rivals I see: Thorn, Thorn, Hawkmonn or TLW... casually I see Vex, Red Death and Messenger and it is when I know we won't have trouble in the match (focus first on this guy).

PS. Not just me... watching the Unstable and Nghty streams shows the same.

You clearly haven't come up against a good messenger user.

I know they know, but until the issue is resolved, I won't be playing. In a perfect world, the rep I gained will pop all at once, but I am worried that rep will just be lost forever. I don't feel like taking that chance.

Yea, don't bother until it's all fixed. I'm not gonna play tonight unless it's fixed. At least I got Batman.
 
I wonder if they'll have a queue for that rep that is missed out on. And if they don't I wonder if they'll know what you wore at the time for the bonuses and if you had the tampered buff active. They have to use timestamps and check history and not sure if they have all that information but I'd hope so.
