Got my first FWC ship

it only took 39 levels and more than a year lol

 

[todd360]

At this point, why not complain about the press getting to preview new iPhones before everyone else? Bungie is essentially making the streamers their "press", and raising hype through them.

I'm not trying to complain. I'm just questioning the decision to do what they are doing.

I would totally watch you stream Todd.

I would definitely stream trials if my internet connection was good enough. I'm sure I'll have moved to a place with better internet within 10 years of destiny haha.

I am looking to do 1 more Nightfall.

I will also do any of the Exotic Sword Strikes (Void/Arc/Solar), if we can get 3 people.

 

[purg3]

Oh ok. Still though. Why give that to them instead of just posting it themselves for everyone?

Free advertising not from the source. Meaning if it came directly from bungie it would probably come across as a sales pitch. Where as if it comes from popular community individuals, it looks better and gets people hyped. It's a win win for both parties involved.

Sounds like how I was with Revenant. Then I got it first DO package post-TTK release ~_~

Interesting. Got all emblems, shader and the ship as i hit 25.

FWC do appreciate my full attention.
Until i recently switched to do the other 2 faction.

I feel like ive made a mistake.

Is Nightfall limited to once per account for rewards, or can I do on each alt?

 

[Tovarisc]

Gesture of goodwill towards that part of community that keeps exposing their game to majority of community. For e.g. you could say that Datto getting these small gifts and gestures from Bungie, even invites to Bungie HQ, makes him more likely to be positive about Bungie and Destiny in the future. Same time Datto knows that accepting these special things guarantees him so unique or even exclusive content to release which in return generates him extra money that month.

Relationship like that between developer/publisher and youtubers like Datto can be very unhealthy as it can affect on what kind coverage Datto produces. Better not be too negative or critical so special treatment doesn't stop.

LevelCap got into semi deep shit for relationship like that when it came into light he had been paid by publisher/developer to create content, but LC never said it was paid for by 3rd party.

 

[KanameYuuki]

Anyone up for 3x daily?

 

[scarletham]

I'm not trying to complain. I'm just questioning the decision to do what they are doing.

Sure, ok. My point though is that it's free advertising for Bungie via vetted mediums with wide audience bases

I hate you. I have 100 levels of DO across my 3 characters and still no ship.

 

[KanameYuuki]

You can do NF for each alt getting rewards. So yeah 3x NF per week.

 

[igordennis]

What is the cheapest thing you can get with marks? Im capped out but i dont want to spend much since IB is around the corner.

Once per character, I believe.

class item from Speaker, i think

Awesome. Thank you

Let me move some items over and I'll be up for a NF

That's a good explanation.

I didn't mean to divert the thread from dance hype to marketing tactics. Sorry everyone. Gonna go eat dinner now.

Materials from the Vanguard vendor

3x? Do you actually get rewards for doing it multiple times?

 

[neoism]

I hope I can get the evil scheme emote with the silver they're going to give us for free.

say whaaa their actually giving us some?

 

[LiK]

That's a good explanation.

people are talking about the dances because the streamers are previewing them. i don't see anything wrong with asking.

 

[scarletham]

I assume they're saying that they want to do it on all three of their characters

 

[Tovarisc]

3x? Do you actually get rewards for doing it multiple times?

Nope

 

[SnakeEyes]

Is Nightfall limited to once per account for rewards, or can I do on each alt?

Nightfall is once per character, Daily Heroic Story and Crucible are once per account, Heroic Strikes (for Marks payouts) are three times per account, Weekly Crucible is three times per account but only on Wins.

 

[Tecnniqe]

say whaaa their actually giving us some?

They are giving us silver, so we can get a few. Prob 1 or 2

Just found out my wife is getting dinner with a friend. Who's raiding tonight? My warlock still needs a run this week.

Just found out my wife is getting dinner with a friend. Who's raiding tonight? My warlock still needs a run this week.

I'm hoping to get one together around 8:30 - 9:00 PM CST if you're around and haven't found a group yet.

 

[Kyne]

thankfully the smartloot (tm) seems to work well with factions.

I now have in my possession every shader and ship (both year 1 and 2) from DO. Time to move on to New Monarchy.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Well, time to dance at Draksis door for cooldown while i watch Twitch.

Aint nobody got time for strike farming.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Me, Lt, Hawkian, and T44 in about 6-7 hours depending on when LT is free!

It may not be optimal , buy I'm trying to get a group to start from the sisters. Have 3 interested so far.

 

[Jblanks]

They should've done an intense out call instead of the safe one (baseball).

To use when someone tries sliding shotgunning you, but you melt them.

;_; I have the DO exotic bond on my warlock and I'm still missing the "Nowhere" and ships

i'm still waiting for Bittersteel to drop.

 

[Hawkian]

but why?

 

[KanameYuuki]

Oh wait Daily is share between characters, dummy me haha.

All right. I'm all loaded up if you are still down to do a NF. My mic is broken however...just a warning

[VE3TRO]

Those dances better not be restricted to classes or race. I'm gonna use the slow clap on so many people in strikes. Could've used it today on some idiot.

 

[Kyne]

sux mang.

i'm still waiting for Bittersteel to drop.

sux mang x2.

on the note of DO exotic bonds... THEY ARE ALL BROWN.

Seriously. It's a dark brown. It's not even black. How the fuck does Bungie mess stuff like this up. The only shader in the game that works with it is Sulfur Burnish, which I'm pretty sure is a titan exclusive shader.

 

[border]

but why?

Yeah I thought you only got marks for doing it once, account wide. I'll give it a go and see

 

[LiK]

class exclusive emotes are possible. don't we have class specific waves and dances already?

 

[SkylineRKR]

I got Bittersteel on Rank 6, and a perfect Hung Jury with it. Still waiting for Revenant.

 

[scarletham]

I thought dances were race specific?

Well Revenant, which was considered to be black shader of the game, has more brown camopattern in it than it has black.

 

[neoism]

How much do we think armor and weapons are going to go for at Lord Saladbars place tomorrow?

It's going to be legendary marks to buy this stuff, right?

shit looks like ima have to play today...:/ im at like 5 marks lol

Sending you a friend request now -- we will be starting shortly

 

[Blue Ninja]

Man, fuck point. I need the Carlton.

 

[LiK]

[Kyne]

Spoiler
