Yeah, forcing variety in crucible so that only spergs have the OP guns is a super great way to balance things.

three dozen or so weapons available across all vendors
This is the main thing, for me. I bought a vendor Palindrome because I needed a decent HC and the advice everywhere was "buy that one." If 30 new rolls are available every week, you might see more players falling into more varied habits. It also provides a reason to level the other factions at all.

I'd rather the spergs have OP guns than everyone have OP guns. FYGM. :patriot:

PI is really drat bad now, they nerfed it hard and then never bothered trying to turn it into something people could have fun with.

As stated, it only works in mayhem when there's unlimited green ammo.

I guess in the new meta there could be a justification to use it because green crates pop every minute and it could be a fun oh poo poo button, but if you need a safety net plan c is superior in every way.

Look I know I'm dumb for owning an Xbox but I was really hoping they'd skip the first on PlayStation poo poo this time. My friends play on Xbox goddamnit.

If there's a PC release I'd be tempted for that but I feel like Destiny is gonna be one of those games that's console focused, in terms of development and player base.

Not if it has cross platform

Even if it was just PC-PS4 or PC-Xbox like Rocket League does, that would be really nice

Roman
Aug 8, 2002

Yeah I was tempted to switch to PC but cross platform shooters often burn out on PC pretty quick. See COD, Titanfall, etc. On the other hand being a loot grind may make it last longer (like The Division, surprisingly). Hard to tell.

Why do you need more space. Just keep the best rolls and trash the rest. You're all ducking weird digital hoarders

My guess is they took out killing the ogres as the victory condition. Instead you need people to scoop up tomb husks that spawn all over the place and slam dunk them into the statues.

Certainly gets rid of a lot of the exploits with that area.

Me too, and I was so sure someone at Bungie had said it like that before, but I guess not.

Should have expected this from how they pronounce "Kabr" too.
