Mine just showed up today. I figured out the turbo function. The button that switches functionality, don't know that one but don't think I'll use it. Just make sure that one switch is on 4 and not 3.

This isthe best community on gaf. I seriously wouldn't be getting it if it wasn't for all the cool people I met through these threads.
Man I hope I can catch one of these sometime since I never did do CE. That Thursday time probably will never work for me unfortunately

- Dungeons - A sleeper hit, the Dungeons is TTK's best 3v3 map. I haven't played it in 6s yet but I imagine the spawns being wonky. From a design standpoint, it's clean, simple to understand and leaves most of the combat up to the player.
- Bannerfall - Pleasing to look at with good verticality and pathing to boot. Bannerfall is the premier Rift map and it handles beautifully, but it struggles with pacing in the other game modes. Control especially plays weirdly with the dynamic spawns and oddly placed zones. Its overall layout however is strong, and better objective and spawning could secure its spots as one of the better maps.
- Crossroads - A unique map with neat geometry and fun gameplay mechanics. Probably not good for 3s, but 6s flow pretty well.
- Frontier - Although the free terrain should make this a free fire zone, the structures get a bit complicated. It's not that great for Rift, but it has potential in the other game modes
- Drifter - This map in 6s is ridiculous. The spawns are all over the place and the tunnels are like clogged arteries. In 3s however I think its pathing will shine and allow players to plan their movements around the map.
- Vertigo - The teleporters add an interesting dynamic to this map that hasn't been fully tapped into yet. The geometry is a bit convoluted and i think the routes are too flat, but it is one of the stronger objective maps in TTK.
- Memento - Bungie tried something extreme here with verticality that we haven't really seen in a Destiny map yet. Unfortunately, they accompany that verticality with a bunch of long stair cases and clutter the rest of the geometry with visual noise. The map is distracting and cramped and ultimately wastes its potential. I think it will be decent in Salvage and Elimination, but Rift and Skirmish aren't too hot.
- Sector 618 - I think this map speaks for itself. I honestly can't think of one redeeming factor on it. The bridges were a neat concept but were poorly executed because of how closed off and decorated they are. We're left with a cluttered map with wonky spawns, virtually no sightlines and unpredictable map flow. Halo 2's backwash was a better map.
Hahahaha

Good games everyone. Had a lot of fun, except for those Sector 618 games. That map really saps the energy out of a lobby.
On another note, I'm officially in love with the Jewel.

Swords disappearing in Scrota's end again, so stupid.

*shrug* I actually like Sector 618. One of the better ones
Oh...
Nah your good. You guys need to stop worrying about the old guns. We are going to have a shit ton of new stuff to shoot on tuesday. New guns for the win.

So, you still think it's good? Haven't tried it yet, but after how disappointing my experiences with HCs have been, it would be great to find a silver lining to this black cloud.

Something I was never sure of: Is the radar a motion sensor similar to Halo's where you can crouch to avoid detection?
Rift has been all new maps for me.

Just need to keep good aim and get headshots. The damage drop off is noticeable though.

What do you like about it? It's almost literally a bunch of trash everywhere.

But what is it about the Jewel that you like better than, say, Hawkmoon?

Jewel huh? I'll give it a go.
By the way, this hori pad? Very interesting. Full review to come later.
Just want to say I have a full auto Red Death now. Good stuff.

Crouching will take you off the map. For a short period of time. You'll pop in and out.
Most people don't look at their radar anyway so popping in and out is fine.

Hmm, I played Rift and got some of the House of Wolves maps. Not the end of the world, but I've played a ton of those already and would just like to try the new maps.
Ah that's a hot tip. Thanks.

Both raids had weird stuff going on since 2.0
VoG: Templar detaining randomly, teleporting without shield break. Also they reset the timer on the relic shield...so stupid. Why did they have to touch anything in VoG? It was perfect
CE: Gatekeeper respawns on the bridge if he falls down the cliff. Sword disappearing, gatekeeper deflecting sword attacks, Crota not kneeling to dps..
