Yes, at least there will be a ton of new mechanic changes like the way light and gear and levels are used to make it feel fresh, but the content seems like we're going to need more in maybe the next 3 to 4 months already.

Just read the last few pages of this thread....as well as that 4th character one in Gaming...
Idk we'll see. Care to make a wager!
Just in general. I kinda lucked into discovering True Vanguard's channel on Youtube and imo he's the best PvP teacher in the business. His sniper school stuff for Destiny keyed me to a bunch of things (especially because Destiny doesn't have the option the change the sensitivity on the x and y axis separately). Zoning, engagement management, radar usage - a lot of people still don't know that the color of the red indicates near-enemy elevation, weapon reviews, builds, etc.
Mtashed has recently started doing clips reviewing other people's recorded games.
Builds are gonna become something more nuanced too imo. With HoW, there were more options on how to really optimize going into PvP because of the new perks and exotics.
I just think there's a lot there that kinda doesn't get spoken on here.

I don't have a huge problem with it, but with so many new weapons changes and designs I was expecting a little more from Vendor gear.
If every Taken enemy looks like this im disappointed. Just a "shader" change for existing units.
Is that fur? FUR!
LOL, I thought you guys knew about the press page.
I had literally no clue there were even different colors of red until they added the color blind modes. It's always funny when people watch my videos and wonder why my green looks brown, red looks yellow, and blue looks purple
Thanks Hawkian! I was worried there for a minute lol. I use the 100.io occasionally and it is a great resource, especially when I just want a couple of people to do 3 nightfalls in a row with but gaf is hands down the best raid group.

There were a lot of really, really small changes that I made that resurrected my k/d after my time with Titan and Warlock lol. Switching to Jumper control scheme freed up my mid-air aiming, dropping my sensitivity again stopped my bad CoD tendencies from jumping into my sniper rifle, lowering my brightness made Burning Shrine my favorite map and gave me my radar back...
all of those little things helped tremendously
I don't really gamble. Only if it's something inconsequential.

Can't wait to get home and find out if my ps4 is dead or still running.

....Well they all have different abilities as well, so it's technically more than just a shader change.
Edit - Unless you're just specifically referring to looks, then yeah.

I joined. Just got an XBONE so I'm only level 11/12 or so. I will be able to Sherpa also as soon as I get to 28/30.

The gorgon chest is going to be so pissed at you for not ever even calling.

Well, yes, but still they all kinda look the same.
I was hoping for some more "unique" looking enemies.
Might be some of them that's not shown yet
i hope
The Furriest of Titan Montages
I wish they would reset the K/D counters. I was such a poor poor crucible player to start and am so much better now. I've gone up 0.2 since I started which is great considering I was at 0.8, but I'm actually solidly above a 1.0 now and would like it to reflect that. Just the sheer awfulness and volume of Crucible I was playing until I got anywhere near decent put me down hundreds of kills which will take a long time to recover from.
Edit: Re: Shader changes of enemies
Was so disappointed that they made all these new Shank types and didn't put them in the PoE or Patrols. I hope they make them more prevalent in all aspects of Destiny and not just new TTK missions/strikes then forget about them.
I definitely agree with the bolded. DGAF is very PVE oriented. Only a handful of the regulars are serious PVP players.
I'd love to be able to discuss more PVP meta here and even have my recordings reviewed to improve my game, but this isn't really the place.
I still enjoy the discussion here though.

I don't either, but a lot of people do. And Bungie wonders why the community is so demanding.

thats not good for it. why is it still on? I usually have to restart mine once every few days cause i'll get weird stuff happening.

That fur is year 1 armor with a pallet change.
In fact raid/iron banner gear aside, all the new TTK armor is old cycled out year 1 armor. Has no one noticed?
Guys, stupid question:
What is limited to me if I don't have the current released expansions? Can I enjoy the game in some way or I'll run into a lot of walls preventing me to enjoy the game?
I only have the base game and I currently thinking about buying the expansion, but I want to check how things are at the moment and avoid getting disappointed again with this game when the expansion arrives.

I'd love to see that! I love reading about the PVP stuff. I just don't post a lot about it because quite frankly I'm bad at it.

So...any new info from the EDGE article?

By home I obviously meant the gorgons labyrinth
I once left my launch jap ps3 running for over a month. I hope the ps4 can match that endurance.
New Monarchy's Titan armor is just a reskin of TDB Vanguard armor.
Fur included.
Dirty dirty!
more year one exotics will get the year 2 treatment down the road.
I bought TTK collection on XB1 after a lot of thought. One of the best game purchases I've ever made!
Anyways, I'm @ 25 now after 3ish weeks. Doing a lot of Vanguard missions to get my 1st Legendary.
So....anyone wanting to do a casual VOG run? Haven't done any raids yet
I'm usually available from 7PM GMT to 9PM since I'm playing from Dubai.
GT: taimoorh

Gaf, I have an idea. I had done this many years ago as a member of another community. I am going to buy a book. A book with blank pages. I put a message, maybe a picture or something. I will then mail it to another DGAF member and they can add to the book as well. when it has made the rounds we can scan it and post it in an OT. We can call it DGAF Year 1. Kind of a nice commemorative piece. What do you think?

I consider myself intermediate in PVP, but yeah, I still prefer PVE over PVP, but the meta just sucks so much right now I can't even play it without bitching lol
The XB1 the100.io group is up to 35, nice! Way to represent. Looks like we can sustain at least a decent group there too.
At this point, if any Xbox One ONLY players- not multiplatform switch-hitters- are in the test group, please leave the test group and join here. There can't be any more than 5 of you, but still, lol. Multiplatform players can join both the Xbox group and the appropriate PS4 group- I'm looking into how to split it up logically right now.

Should be fine. I left my PS2 running for 3 years straight.
Pretty cool idea. Dibs on last page to repost my Navy Raid edit or whatever it is in.

That's a nice thing to do. Pretty sure USPS will misplace the book though :/
All the same if this were the bet:
A) NM Kings Fall Raid is level 40 with recommended light of 280
B) It is literally anything else
Then that's a really bad bet for me to make because you get "anything else" and I get one extremely specific choice.
Granted I'm assuming that it's (A) based upon what Luke said but that doesn't mean I want to put on an ugly avatar because I think that it's gonna be that and it might not be that...
solly vaalbar, no one plays destiny pvp without bitching right now.

this hand cannon and scout shotgun meta is almost done. 2-3 more weeks...
Very cool idea.
I thought this part was interesting:
Not really spoilery, but just to be safe as it's Luke talking about the raid.
"The way we developed King's Fall was different to the other raids. We developed Hard mode first this time, then scaled to Normal. And we have one more thing we're not talking about yet that's pretty special. It's a twist I'm very excited about." He stops. We push. "It's not just going to be Normal and Hard mode."

No no no, my counter bet would've been NM lvl 40/light 2--ahh 280 sounds way too perfect (cause then they could push it to 300 for hard). Dang you might be right.
And your avatar wouldn't have been ugly. Just would've been the class you dislike most in destiny with the caption "all praise [insert hated class here]"
But fine, no bets ={
