PvP is actually pretty damn fun in 3v3 I think. The Supers actually are much more manageable that way. 6v6 is just too cluttered for them and makes the experience messy. I think if Bungie made a playlist where everyone's Super shared the same cooldown it would actually create a decent competitive experience. That way teams could actually plan out when to use/save their Supers knowing that the other team would be having theirs up at the same time as well. It would prevent the snowballing effect of winning teams regenning their Supers faster than their opponents. I would also be on board if there was an objective point you could defend (sort of like a heavy ammo drop) where if you held it for a certain amount of time then you get bonus Super energy/orbs for your team.
I think the PvP has good potential in 3v3 for a somewhat competitive experience, but it would need a decent amount of tweaking.

So I decided to do all the exotic bounties I get from now on after doing the one for Pocket Infinity. The one I got yesterday was Toland's Journal and the first requirement is to complete a weekly heroic or nightfall strike. First thought that ran through my mind was "FUCK! How am I supposed to get two other people to do this shit with?!" Also the Vanguard bounties I had were The Bigger They Are (Complete a weekly heroic or nightfall strike) and Walking Tall (Complete a Strike without dying).
So I'm like "Screw waiting, I can do this!" and went in the weekly heroic solo. My mind is going places cause I'm like this is the strike with the bullet sponge Vandal that you have to fight along with a hundred other minions at once. Turns out you can pretty much do this easy if you just follow what you typically do in the Tiger Strikes: Skip the beginning part until you get to the non optional fight 3 waves will Dinkle opens the door stage. After that sped past and skipped the other parts until I got to the boss area. Used the crap out of my homing fire rockets and melting shit with my Pocket Infinity. That plus solar grenades and flame shield perks and I didn't have to pop my super once during the entire strike.
Feels good.

I prefer 3v3 too. My only complaint on it is how bad heavy ammo can break the games. Playing it with friends is a blast, but if the opposite team doesn't even bother to try and get or at least stop you from it? Yeah it's over.
Also, best maps are on the 3v3. And the worst maps don't show up there too!

Yeah, heavy ammo should be harder to get in some fashion.

good choice, but you probably want to have your character at least at 27 before moving on to another character, since at 27 you could still help out with raids.
the bungie then isn't the bungie now....
The fact that the company who basically pioneered fps multiplayer on consoles produced this drek is incredibly pathetic and sad.

Good decision.

Tried the Nightfall with Thrilltacular (27 Warlock), a friend (26 Hunter), and myself (27 Titan).
After a frustrating bug caused us to restart halfway through (non-host/Fireteam Leader went ahead of others, causing the mission to end...?), we tried again and actually got through pretty easily.
At the end, though, the cheese spot ended up being a death trap. Even underneath the platform/ramp, we got demolished within just a few minutes. Guess we need to be higher level.

Everyone will look nearly the same eventually.
But am I imagining the video that showed the tools they were using to create the models and such?
It was like their tech stuff.

yes, yes, yes. For some reason this seems to be a secret to so many people out there.
FINALLY!
My first Legendary off an engram. Blue one to boot. But whatever, I don't care. RNGesus is real! I will never doubt again.
I'm a fan of that gun, was also my first legendary heavy.

So in the "last area" or arena, where the Archon Priest is set loose, there is a platform on the far right side of the map. On the left edge of the platform, near the cliff, is a spot where you can crouch and get under.
When I played the Weekly on lvl 26 difficulty, this was a great spot to hide and plink at the baddies. You can still take damage, but it was relatively easy compared to running around.

Someone must have been adamant about getting in that "the children are afraid anyway." line.
"What are the children afraid of?"
"They're already afraid. Let's keep it moving, man. I don't have to explain why I don't have time to explain."

nice shots, i love sniping on this map.
i really want that sniper, although i do wonder about the way the reticle moved. do you have it upgraded? it's supposed to have more stability than my hierachon, but my reticle never moves that badly when i'm shot. i guess that's one of my perks though.
it'll be hard to give that up...
