[Phear]

Hey guys, i need help. I am on PS4 and I want to go all digital. Bought Vanilla Destiny on Disc and all DLCs up to TTK digitally.

Is there any way to get rid of the disc and play Destiny all digital? "Destiny® – The Collection Upgrade" is only for people comming from PS3, right? There seems to be no Vanilla Destiny Standalone Digital. What can i do?

Thanks in advance!

 

[SgtCobra]

What new exotics have dropped? I'm wondering if I should decrypt my exotic engrams

Only one, the exotic sidearm called The Trespasser.

 

[123rl]

Thanks. I only have one Special Exotic Engram so I'll save it

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

What's in this 12 GB update I'm currently downloading?

You can't right now. Vanilla isn't available as a standalone digital download. Gotta wait I guess. I'm in the same position.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

What the fuck with the worthless green engrams? And the blue is decrypting at 245 for pretty much everything? Come the fuck on. I've got a 4 day weekend and this'll ruin my plans completely.

Yes, you buy the $39.99 Collection that includes everything including vanilla Destiny and RoI. You just delete your disc game and then download it digitally and you can play everything except RoI now (after a big ass download). I just did it earlier.

Thanks. Just to clarify, the Download states i need to come from the Legacy (PS3) Version, but this works with PS4 too, yes?

I dont remember seeing anything about the PS3 version.

I went to the store on my PS4, searched for "destiny", and bought/preordered the $39.99 "Destiny - The Collection Upgrade". I've only ever played on PS4 and it worked fine for me.

Toward the speaker. Instead of going left/up the stairs toward him, go right to the big locked doors.

For me it says I can't buy the collection because I already own The Taken King...

I wouldn't say nothing. Bad Juju is like the indispensable Prison/Challenge of Elders primary. Really any PvE that has you up against a large number of enemies.

 

[Deku Tree]

Is it time to stock up on 3oC? Are we back to leveling up by decoding a lot of exotic engrams. I guess it makes sense to wait until your sort of high level to start decoding them though.

Thanks. He appeared when I checked again but he wasn't there the first time I looked

Downloading huge update now.

 

[Zakalwe]

Good week for Xur for me. My journey to replace my Y1 Exotics continues.

Skullfort was the next armour peice I wanted. Lucky roll. Was it always 2x melee charge? I don't remember it being that before, but it's perfect for my current defender build.

Also got ACD/0 from my first Exotic engram, the second piece of armour I wanted!

Someone above said Bad Juju is worth getting. True?

Kills with it recharge your super faster.

Works in PvP too.

Yeah, I like it.

 

[RickD]

Yes, definately! Reloads the mag when you get a kill and gives you loads of super energy as well

 

[Zakalwe]

Alright, I'll grab it!

Also: where's the best place to use your 3 of coins currently? I have an Agonarch rune, would that be a good place for one?

 

[Bold One]

Any hints of a graphical bump?

I use 3oC on Patrol against the taken bosses, and in the Cosmodrome patrol against the Troll Patrol VIP boss in the Divide.

I pop them in crucible matches, before the end of Nightfalls...

 

[SmartWaffles]

So very useful for a solo PvE player? But I don't have any other weapon to infuse it to, currently using a The Devil You Know which I really like.

Found one really easy to get to, engram on my first run!

Video states there's a 15 minute cool down on 3oC effectiveness, but I read a post from Bungie stating this isn't true.

Facts?

 

[ThingontheFloor]

Fell asleep to the multiple update delays, but woke up and decrypted a Trespasser on my 2nd saved special engram, so that's alright. Going to hold on to the rest until ROI drops unless any new ones are discovered, tho. Would rather new exotics than a temporary light increase. Sidearm hype?

 

[panama chief]

Just had a blue special engram turn into a Byronic Hero(primary). Not complaining but that's not normal.

It's quite common actually. I find a lot of Legendary items from blue engrams.

EDIT: oh, a primary from a special! That is odd. :3

 

[wesleyshark]

Woooo got a Tresspasser. Such a lovely gun.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

15 3oC used over the last couple days, 0 exotic engrams. Top it off with the other engrams decrypting to garbage and this has not been a fun return to Destiny so far...

 

[X-Frame]

Fuck me, Shoulder Charge's activation animation really was slowed down.

 

[Zakalwe]

Oh, I just realise the ACD/0 I got from the Xur engram is a year 1. I didn't know that was possible. Kind of sucky. :/

At least it's unlocked to buy with marks I guess...

Yeah. Legacy Engrams only dish out Year 1 items.


I was hoping there would be some special public events

I got this Byronic from a blue

Its amazing at short range, ass outside

Why are Zur's engrams legacy when the equipment isn't? Slow down the drip of Exotics into the game?

 

[noomi]

So many Tresspassers, I assume the drop chance must be pretty high then, gotta get to grinding those special exotic engrams then.

Also someone mentioned that a gold daily public event is not actually giving out marks?

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

So the stealth nerf is true then?

Why is everything fun being nerfed? FFS

 

[bitofadrizzle]

Facts?

Scott Taylor said recently in an interview with Eurogamer that there is no cool down on 3oC but from testing it seems that there is.

People who have tried speed farming with 3oC (one every 2 minutes) were getting one drop for 10 coins on average compared to one drop every 5 coins when they were using just one per day. One popular theory is that the cool down only kicks in once you have an exotic drop.

The cool down also used to be per character.

So the right way to farm 3oC is speed run until you get an exotic engram, then switch characters and do it again, then repeat.

They are gonna do something next week supposedly. Popular theory right now is Iron Banner: Supremacy.

 

[robertsan21]

Im guessing cause some players just kept running in tight spaces and shoulder charged around corners. There is no way to defend yourself maybe it was too OP?

In my opinion the only nerf that I was glad they made was the nerf to the Mythoclast in PVP. Thats shit was crazy.

I never had any problems with Thorn users, last word users, shotgunners, snipers etc, I got killed by them a lot sure, but you just got to adapt. They should have left everything else as it was

 

[Sh0k]

Right. You have to buy the collection upgrade. On the store it is called "Destiny - The Collection Upgrade"

I would like to go all digital too with Destiny, I pre-ordered Rise of Iron a couple of weeks ago, any chances that I can talk to a Sony rep to ask for a refund to get the Destiny - The Collection Upgrade paying the difference? Is it easy to do or should I just stay with my physical copy and forget about going all digital?

 

[onimushroom]

First post-update Vanguard rank-up package gave me the Fatal Vision ship and first Crucible rank-up package gave me the Kingspyre shader. Cool.

[WeTeHa]

Only a couple more days and i can finally play some games again. Just in time for RoI. I'm pretty excited. Can't wait ror new missions, exotics, legendaries and secrets!

 

[robo]
