I found a used copy of destiny at a swap meet for $2 over the weekend. My niece had shown interest in the game when she played it on my Xbox so I grabbed the game for her. It doesn't have any of the expansions though, which item should she purchase on the Xbox store so she can have all of the expansions? Or, is there a website where I can purchase a digital key that will give her all of the expansions?

It is the Xbox one version for the record.

Do you play on Xbox One or do you live in government subsidized housing? We can run some content with you to get the LL up faster.

Try buying the Destiny Collection Upgrade for $40. You're not supposed to be allowed to buy it (it's intended as an upgrade from 360 to XB1) but they let me buy it by accident.

If you consider a bunch of filthy unshaven cretins huddling in tents down by the river, yes there's a community.

Should have bought an xbox where it's all big dicks, convertibles, and hot coder wives.

You are Destiny.


I think we're going to Jupiter/the Jovian Moons in a few weeks. And maybe the Vex are there. First, Geomantic Symbols table:



At the end of the Age of Triumph reveal twitch, there was this. It has the Day glyph for Jupiter, "Acquisitio" in the top left corner of the planet, plus what looks like a lot of moons, and the Vault of Glass logo???:


At E3 2013 when they revealed Destiny, the reveal content included Jupiter (probably Europa), with the Night glyph, "Laetitia", with an ice level layout:



At first I thought the planet was Mars, because it's red, but THIS is Mars with the SIVA logo on it:


They also had Earth:


the Moon, with a big Hive logo on it:


And Saturn, basically untouched:



If you guys remember me pointing out earlier that these transit billboards in Last Exit looked like different Waveforms (left to right, triangle wave, sine wave, square wave):



...I noticed that the Traveller also has the faint implications of the very same waves dressed around its outside in the very last fadeout of the video:

The short of it is if Bungie actually did have a secret code hidden in their game, someone smarter than you would have posted it months ago on reddit and a legion of spergs would have deciphered the whole thing while you were asleep.

Bungie makes such a fuss over old content coming back (streams, posts, skywriters, etc.) that I can't believe they'd have an Actual New Thing (crucible map) and not be teasing it every Thursday for the past 6 months.

They're deleting all weapons except sidearms. You have to pick up ammo for melee. Gear takes damage and has to be fixed with exotic shards or be destroyed forever.

Oh poo poo I remember you! I ran a few raids with your group of friends back in the day. I'm pretty sure you showed me the ropes when I first started playing. You guys were hilarious.

Because its like one every three months and its for like 6 hours at a time.

Anyway back to destiny Mayhem strikes sound fun but could possibly get old real quick particularly with burns active. A huge part of the fun in destiny is the challenge and all the orbs + quick recharge rates would probably be a little too easy.

Just end game stuff, you can do hardmode raids, trials, iron banner, nightfalls, I might be forgetting something. Vendor rank up packages go up to 390 so use spare resources on your faction until you get to 390. Skeleton keys and exotic engrams go to 400 too.
