What´s that "prepare to download" shit again & why doesn´t it move?

Checking old patch update info.

I haven't tested it but the patch notes say this is the case.

 

[Requiem]

NO BACK UP PLANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SHOTGUN KILLS TRIGGER FORCE BARRIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[traveler]

Yeah. It's crazy how strong the super is. A lot of folks are suggesting it's because of how weak the class is outside of that, but...in highly competitive modes like Trials that super is almost a guaranteed round win. Yes, you can run away and or focus fire, but neither is safe.

This is not particularly different than Golden Gun or, to a lesser degree, Blademaster, though. You get 1 super typically in Trials- that's not as important as something you have every round like, say, the Striker's lightning grenade, even if your super does give you the round. It's not like the striker super doesn't give you a few percentage points towards a win either when it comes up.

 

[Darknyss09]

WTF, I just got stuck in my inventory menu and can't back out.

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Yeah but

Buying exotic armor is a shortcut :^) You can only wear one of it, and they aren't obscenely powerful, so it's not buying power :^) Buy our DLC engrams now, it's random so it's not directly buying power!

Hmmm idk if i could get behind of real money engrams... hell, for what they're charging for dance moves... an exotic engram would probably cost us $25 per! lol

 

[xplicitone]

So much good and so much bad, all in one update.

Economy nerfs, especially Weapon Parts which are scarce, sucks

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

I just want the Hunter's wolf helmet

How many marks?

 

[SirMossyBloke]

It's downloading the 18gb patch again. It has less than 500MB to go and says it'll take 35 minutes.

What the fuck.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

I'm sorry, but the ONLY reason to reduce the drops of weapon parts, motes, coins, etc. Is because you will be able to buy them for real money. And I was one who was vehemently defending the microtransaction news.

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?

Caught in the cashgrab,
no escape from the DLC.

Open your eyes,
Look at the patch notes and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no DLC,

Bungie's like: easy cash, easy dough,
prices high, prices low,
Anyway the cash flows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

Amazing

 

[Strider]

No Carlton is killing my IB hype.

 

[MrDaravon]

I can't believe you can only have one emote equipped at a time though, they should let you override all 3 emote dpad/slots.

 

[BahamutPT]

I just want the Hunter's wolf helmet

How many marks?

Only Boots and Class Item for sale.

 

[Geist-]

Just saw the Iron Banner vendor pulse rifle rolls on reddit. Holy shit, it's a god roll, I'm so happy right now.

INVENTORY:

- Nirwen's Mercy (Pulse Rifle)(90 marks) - ROLL: Outlaw **/** Perfect Balance - Braced Frame - Injection Mold **/** Third Eye (also OAS scope) a.k.a near God roll

Now I just have to rank up Iron Banner without driving myself crazy.

 

[skynidas]

when is Iron Banner supposed to start?

 

[RemiLP]

What´s that "prepare to download" shit again & why doesn´t it move?

Happends to me too, but seems like its actually downloading. I was suddenly at 88%.

 

[EroticSushi]

IB inventory. It's 280 light across the board. 40 marks each.

Nirwen's Mercy (Pulse Rifle) - ROLL: Outlaw / Perfect Balance - Braced Frame - Injection Mold / Third Eye (also OAS scope) a.k.a near God roll

Ironwreath D (Sidearm) - ROLL: Zen Moment / Hot Swap / Snapshot - Quickdraw - Reinforced Barrel

Boots

Class item

two new emblems

same shaders

bounties

 

[FeD.nL]

armor seems to be 40 marks, weapons 90

 

[Toddler]

Mobile Tower app is fucked.... can't access any of my charachters, their gear, or the vault from it.

 

[LTWood12]

Patch note team meeting last Wednesday:

Joey: "Folks, these Uncommon weapons are the fucking interstate on the way to infusion. We got to slow this shit down. Right now you get a weapon part just for dismantling a green weapon. This shit has to stop, or at least we need to curb it, and curb it fast. I'm proposing a 25% decrease in weapon part yields from uncommon and rare weapons. I'm sorry but weapon parts should NOT be a guarantee in this life."

 

[Darryl M R]

$40 and you have some left over silver.


4200 silver to buy everything. You get 2300 for $20, and 400 free.

Are all the emotes available to buy at the moment or only a select few?

 

[GhaleonEB]

waiting for kotaku article or gaming side thread filled with jumping to conclusions about subclass infusion

I just assumed it was to fix the issue with the Spark of Light, which didn't level your subclass. I don't see this being something they'd ever sell.

Disappointed at the emotes pricing. I'll get one once the first meaty content from the live team hits, to support them, but $5 for a dance move is simply too much.

I still can't believe the weapon part nerf. For a while I had 4 or 5 weapons leveled, but I couldn't unlock the node for want of weapon parts post TTK.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

I just want the Hunter's wolf helmet

How many marks?

helmet is not available this Iron Banner.

 

[Lnkn52]

I hope IB is giving away marks like candy, alot of marks to use for all your characters.

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

Iron banner train anyone?

 

[Kyne]

So the conversion is $5 for a dance emote?

EDIT:
I better get a raid in 3 months time then if I buy this shit.

there are no more raids coming.

IB inventory. It's 290 light across the board.

Nirwen's Mercy (Pulse Rifle) - ROLL: Outlaw / Perfect Balance - Braced Frame - Injection Mold / Third Eye (also OAS scope) a.k.a near God roll

Ironwreath D (Sidearm) - ROLL: Zen Moment / Hot Swap / Snapshot - Quickdraw - Reinforced Barrel

Boots

Class item

two new emblems

same shaders

bounties

think you mean 280.

--

why is the class item counting as the gear for this Iron Banner? Ugh.

edit: spindles have been nerfed to 290.

 

[BahamutPT]

IB inventory. It's 290 light across the board.

Mine's showing 280

10/10

5$ Slowclap

 

[traveler]

For what? The next three months? The next year? Source?

 

[Jinjo]

So do the new emotes say something special in the feed on the bottom left? Determines if I buy slow-clap. It has to say "JinjoNL slow-claps xxxx"

 

[serenewarfare]

Bungie are a bunch of fuckers. Smart, but fuckers. Paid $5 to get the Carlton. No ragrets.

 

[LifEndz]

So much good and so much bad, all in one update.

Economy nerfs, especially Weapon Parts which are scarce, sucks.

Yeah...2 steps forward and 2 steps back. Everything else was fine outside of the weapon part nerf.

 

[Ozone]

So paying the $20 upgrade doesn't get you the extra silver?

Cool.

 

[Goodacre0081]

do we still need to use IB emblems, shaders and class items for the bonuses?

 

[stb]

regarding the 330 exotics and the subclass spark thing: https://twitter.com/thislukesmith/status/652190471989559296 EDIT: NOT a new tweet, but relevant!

I'm not saying they definitely aren't THINGS, but freaking out about DB entries has almost always been more trouble than it's worth.

 

[LiK]

helmet is not available this Iron Banner.

serious? so it's a possible drop? omg

 

[tick221]

Reducing the already low drop rate of strange coins is a absolute dick move Bungie

 

[_woLf]

I REALLY don't think those economy changes were necessary.

I finally felt like the rate of gaining shit was in a good place. :|

 

[Hoffelcopter]

I'm baffled by the strange coin nerfs. That shit was already scarce in drops.

 

[jaaz]

The "Press X to Get More!" line on the silver coins bothers me more than it should. I'm probably still mad at the economy nerf.

 

[skynidas]

OH BOY. I might have a problem, I have a North American PSN copy and i'm playing on my European account, so when i hit the "Get more Silver" thing it doesn't let me access the store.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Spindle has been nerfed

 

[Jabronium]

Be interested to see if IB drops still start at rank 2. Limited time to play this weekend and not sure I'll be able to get up to 5 again.

 

[GluedOnBeard]

My black spindles are now 280, well done Bungie on a useless nerf.

 

[GlamFM]

serious? so it's a possible drop? omg

They mix up gear from banner to banner. maybe next time.
