Support NeoGAF

[Hawkian]

I strongly encourage folks to post in the TTK Gaming thread. People are of course free to use either, but the Community folks en masse ignore the thread, then it would signal a probably I didn't realize we had. All communities eventually get a bit insular but I hope that's not the case to a great degree here; DestinyGAF has been very welcoming of new players, and TTK will both bring in new players, and bring back old ones. An infusion of new players to the Community thread would be a great thing, and the participation of the DestinyGAF community in the Gaming side would help facilitate it.

To be clear, I don't think it will be a problem, and certainly wasn't with the HoW thread.

I don't expect many to refrain from posting in the TTK thread on gaming side, and rest assured that a substantial infusion of new players to the Community thread is coming.

Personally, I won't ignore it by any stretch and will endeavor to assist new or curious players I see, but am not likely to post myself. I predict it to be a more vitriolic and less constructive environment than this one, as gaming side threads have to a large extent been outlets for that sort of discourse. But I'm absolutely open to changing my mind and participating if it doesn't go that way.

The thread is moving fast and I missed his first post.

Oh, alright, my bad for jumping on you.

I just don't like this nebulous idea of cliqueyness in a community this big without any examples. I have no idea how to combat what I'm hearing. :-/

 

[Namikaze1]

I'm okay with this. More epic music!

Epic music is epic

I really like it

We did Iron Wafer last night and while Nilla kinda did save me a spot, I did ask to be included and was online. Many of the other guys I hadn't run with before or often and we had fun. We won most of the time but did have a couple scrubby rounds.

I know the conversations can be clique-y but there is nothing clique-y about DJ or RAWR or mehrmantrout saying

COME WITH ME IF YOU WANT THE CHECKPOINT

which is open to all. Hawkian's noobie raids are open to all. "I'm at the boss if you need NF join on _____" are open to all. Posts by Koro, Ned, Doge (weeping) saying "Hey 1st timers with no Mercury visits post here" are open albeit console specific.

Sometimes people ask for clannies or such for specific trophies but I think that deserves a pass. While our conversation can be inside jokes sometimes or whatever else I think we're pretty dang open, but we can always do better.

Hi, I'm Glenn, I'm bad at PvP and I do moderate to decent imitations in party. I try not to be a boat anchor but unfortunately it seems to be my lot in life on occasion.

thanks Phen0m it means a lot to be noticed

In all seriousness as a relative newcomer my take on it all fwiw Of course theres cliques thats just the nature of life, people always gravitate towards people who they enjoy playing with or have similar interests/humour after all we play in our free time

However I've never found it exclusionary on here, sure LFG posts can be ignored sometimes but you can't ask everyone to reply with a no thanks in subsequent posts, so it then gets lost. You either have to keep reposting it or stand up and join another LFG that goes up

 

[Chronology]

I've been actively trying to prevent that, ever since the very first OT.

If we do, then we'll suffer the same tragic fate.

What happened to HaloGAF?

 

[rNilla]

They fixed it?

 

[noomi]

Is there anyway someone can host it on their channel so we can get a chat again? I dont want to see bungie's chat

We're all in the DGAF@E3 chat, you were in there before, you should just be able to select it again

I've been actively trying to prevent that, ever since the very first OT.

If we do, then we'll suffer the same tragic fate.

Thanks for looking out Ghaleon, please keep us safe <3

POWER OUT IN 3...2...1

 

[BMO = GOAT]

Yea, what happened to HaloGaf? Im curious now

 

[Lee]

Is this Marty music or not? Doesn't seem like it to me.

Nope. Bungie dropped Marty's tracks faster than their stream.

 

[KxoZz]

Epic music is epic

I really like it

It's one thing they got right from the beginning

lol

 

[xplicitone]

I see what you did there

Hahaha adding that e felt a little weird for sure

 

[jaaz]

*cringe*

 

[nowai]

lol god dammit Deej. Already starting with the dad jokes.

 

[Tecnniqe]

That Deej save. Luke plis. Show yourself!

Forever lost in the dark corners of time.

Hoping that they give some of those engrams away at PAX

 

[Deku Tree]

I see a ghost

 

[GalacticToast]

Dude in the audience with the red hoodie looks like Jean-Ralphio.

 

[xplicitone]

Alright, enjoy the stream everyone. If I see this thread jump more than 9 pages in the next hour, I might just give in. See yall on the flipside

 

[Zoso Achilles]

I don't think we have anything to worry about yet. If the community at large becomes angry with the direction the franchise is heading in, like it seemed with HaloGAF, then there may be problems.

It's still sad I have nowhere to discuss halo here anymore. RIP

 

[Kor of Memory]

Is this Marty music or not? Doesn't seem like it to me.

No. You can by the fact that Paul McCartney hasn't come back.

 

[deoee]

Cozmo looks so sad all the time LOL

 

[Kor of Memory]

Is it just me or does Cozmo always have this deer in headlights pose? Poor guy looks like he's about to be shot at any moment.

 

[GalacticToast]

He ignored the sword. Lol

 

[Tecnniqe]

What a tease! I SAW A SWORD EQUIPPED!

 

[Tjamato88]

In before the thread explodes!

What should I do? I have a level 3 Titan that I was thinking about using the TTK level boost on but I'm also considering just grinding him up and using the boost on a new Warlock character.

 

[GunnerZ]

Is it working for you guys?

 

[nowai]

Glad they are finally showing the class perks in depth.

 

[E92 M3]

Is this Marty music or not? Doesn't seem like it to me.

I'm guessing it's not.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Hahaha amazing

Stroke the Forge

I see Titans doing good.

Why no sword?

It's so easy to get to 34 now if you have excess armour cores/light, personally I'd do it now to get ahead on the subclass grind

 

[trance-ecj]

I don't know about this whole 'spotlight on a community dude' thing for these reveals...

most of the time im just cringing rather than getting excited while having someone explaining something in a clear way.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Artifacts aren't cosmetic? Dropped so damn hard

 

[Hawkian]

Feeble request to spoiler tag anything you see re: content that we hadn't known about before!

 

[GhaleonEB]

That artifact specified solar melees, which implies they are both class and subclass specific.

 

[Chronology]

So I guess artifacts are

Spoiler

just little exotic-lite style buff items?

EDIT: spoilered for hawk, sorry

Definitely save the boost for your third character, I say.

 

[Namikaze1]

Sunbreakers sound op

 

[GalacticToast]

That Vanish smoke bomb

 

[JohnOfMars]

Our loadouts are going to get so much situational. This is good in my eyes.

I'm so glad there are apps and Chrome extensions that allow us to build loadouts and equip them automatically. Would be such a pain to do it all manually.

 

[Blunoise]

Come on this is boring. Get to the warlocks already

 

[gutter_trash]

Sunbreakers sound op

I find it odd that their subclass bares the same name as the Warlock's Exotic Gauntlets


hmmmmm


oh, what video are you guys watching?

 

[NeOak]

"Titan Master Race"
"Sorry guys, still no blink"

"Master" race denied lol

 

[daedalius]

Sunbreaker talent tree looks SO GOOD

I wonder if they are going to adjust the others to have more synergy similar to what Sunbreaker and the other new subclasses are getting.

 

[Tjamato88]

It's so easy to get to 34 now if you have excess armour cores/light, personally I'd do it now to get ahead on the subclass grind

I have none of those things haha but yeah my buddy just bought the digital TTK bundle so I'll probably just use my Titan and play with him.

 

[GalacticToast]

So they took away the Warlock's

Spoiler

lightning grenade

and gave it

Spoiler

arcbolt

 

[KxoZz]

lol you can extend the range on the stormcaller meelee that already has ridiculous range
