Some sort of puzzle. Got past the first part. No idea on the second.

That's from Pre-alpha stuff for Destiny . I don't believe they updated it with anything, but IDK.

That's old. Is it being refreshed?

Rumble counts as a win towards bounties and quests if you place in the top three.

Wow - news to me. Alright then.

Tweeting some numbers and dates, including ROI launch date.

Anyone run the daily today?

I love this kind of stuff.

 

[GustyGardens]

I have never wanted to go home and get killed in the crucible so bad before.

I bet each "infection" is a color on the owl sector map. eventually it will show % of people with each one?

I was just thinking the same thing. I was planning on cutting down on Destiny until Rise of Iron next week, but I want to be infected.

Nope. Not for Grimore.

Right, not for grimoire, but yes for bounties and quests.

You're probably right. Right now the map image is just a static .jpg, but the exact same map image is built into the background (background_1.jpg). I don't think they would go through that trouble unless they meant for the overlay to change.

 

[spyder_ur]

No good at cropping or embedding tweets, but the most recent one from that twitter account mentions Rasputin.

Anyone know who owns this Twitter account? It's followed by bungie. No tweets since 2014

 

[Jinjo]

Apparently having infections changes how you see the Owlsector website. There's 4 or 5 in total. KingGoth is trying to get them all now.

Reports of SIVA infected WARSAT public events in the Cosmodrome

Oh snap for reals?

 

[Jinjo]

Confirmed fake.

 

[soultron]

That owl sector twitter account might also be fake, just saying.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Deej confirmed twitter is fake (could be a life, but I double it) however the website is real and the infections in crucible is real.

 

[Jinjo]

That owl sector twitter account might also be fake, just saying.

DeeJ also confirmed that to be fake on Twitter just now. Only the infections and the Owlsector Bungie page is real. That SIVA WARSAT image from a few hours ago was not real either.

I keep getting weasel errors.

 

[NastyBook]

Trains now powered by Netduma.
Shoutouts to Katsubento for the hookup.

Train tonight.

Have you already tried it yet, or will tonight be the maiden voyage? Hope I don't fall asleep when I get home. Wonder if I should get a blueberry/sour apple slushie for the trip home?

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

I keep getting weasel errors.

Same, got weaseled and tapir'ed twice just now.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

the hell is going on.

 

[TheAquaticApe]

SIVA is taking OVER. PANIC!

I just got my third connection error as well.

Where are they now?

 

[Twilight Gap]

did someone say every court of oryx and kings fall challenge is available this week for calcified fragments?

 

[jrcbandit]

I quit the game about a year ago, before the Taken King hard mode raid launched. Any weapons I should be working towards before the new expansion launches? Only one I know so far is the 320 light sword that was released late April. Disappointed that all my sniper rifles were nerfed ;p. I don't have that many good weapons, mostly level 290-305ish exotics and a must have like Hung Jury, my nerfed sniper rifles, some shot guns/rocket launchers, and ever faithful Thunderlord. I also got Sleeper Simulant and Touch of Malice before I left. Never did get that one exotic sniper that was a special mission of the day, black spindle or something like that...

 

[Hzoltan69]

How does changing factions work now? With FWC I'm about to level up, so I'd rather not get any more xp for it before RoI. Can I just switch allegiance and gather xp for another faction, then simply switch back next week? Are there any limitations?

 

[Deku Tree]

did someone say every court of oryx and kings fall challenge is available this week for calcified fragments?

Yes

 

[chur]

Yeah they're all available this week.

It's pretty much what you said. You switch over and you can switch back in a week.

 

[Hzoltan69]

In a week or any time?

 

[BLU-82]

In a week or any time?

Once per reset. If you change to another faction you cant change back to FWC until Tuesday reset

 

[Truelize]

Ok I got the game to load finally....

Is there anything new to do?

Did this patch give us entrance into anything ROI related?

 

[Dead]

damn. Stacking brilliance and magnificence :0

 

[darthbob]

Does the rep bonus stack?

Private Matches are available. You can go dead ghost hunting.

 

[Jinjo]

Owl Sector updated! It's tracking infections. Hourly updates now. A message on the site about Brilliance 3.2:

Owl Sector Internal, OS-I6 1

SHU: How long since we last convened?
QUI: I can still recall the Dawn Calamity, so not long enough.
BER: I've got consistent and strange reports coming in from across the system.
SHU: Try me.
BER: A few Guardians in the field report being swarmed by some kind of electronic mite. The first few after visiting the Dust Palace on Mars, but the rest from all over.
SHU: How bad?
BER: Fantastic, apparently. At least, that's what they're yelling over comms. Is happy shouting a medical issue? Do we take this to the Vanguard?
QUI: Ikora first. The Hidden might know something.

 

[X-Frame]

Oh shit this is awesome!

Hope this is better handled than Sombra!

 

[Kyne]

So if all of the CoO events are in play, does that mean all of the challenges are as well in the KF raid?

 

[GreyWind]

What is that green and blue effect that I see people with in the tower?

 

[TheAquaticApe]

What is that green and blue effect that I see people with in the tower?

People are getting infected by SIVA!

Spoiler

Some type of launch event/ARG for RoI

 

[Ambitious]

did someone say every court of oryx and kings fall challenge is available this week for calcified fragments?

Yeah. I need all three KF challenges and also the Challenge of the Elders. The problem is, I've never played either challenge, my gear is all just below 310, and I haven't played in a year. I'm looking for an experienced, forgiving group in order to tackle all four challenges. Wanna team up?
