I have no real objection to the Hive per se but I'm just tired of them, they got so much attention and playtime in D1 and I want to shoot something else for a while. Bungie's going to introduce a 16-man PVP mode but make it 4v4v4v4.

As if Rasputin could have stopped the Traveler even if he wanted to. She "held power over him", he wasn't powerful enough. But now he's not longer just a Warmind, so...

It's called something like "starter dance" and yeah it sucks that there's still only one emote slot. My first bright engram gave me the ship Titans had in the beta and the sixgun emote.

I got two sparrows from my freebie. The red/white crucible one that reloads ammo when you ride it (seems useless) and some neon green/blue one. Wish I got some emotes like you guys.

I posted this and then proceeded to have a 60-46 3 on 4 Clash win where I had 36 kills and a 21 streak. It was the best Destiny match I've ever had and the best multiplayer match I've had in a long rear end time. Maybe it's... good? until I have my next bad game

Same way there's a whole bunch of people walking around in the Reef despite it being open to vacuum space magic. I did all of Cayde's treasure maps and it gave me a Ascendant Artichoke which had no use beyond turning it in for glimmer but I did lol heartily.

After a few weeks I'm hoping we get something that feels like a nice 50/50 balance but who knows. I really am not hating 4v4 like I wanted to. The action gets going quick enough. Lone wolves running around aimlessly hurt harder for sure though.

quote:4v4 will be the death of casual drop in PvP. Everyone will only play once they have a full 4, and it will never be like D1 where you could roll with 2 or 3 in control and have a reasonable chance of winning. Yeah you can tell within like three games that if you don't have a full squad you're loving yourself. I'm looking forward to some clan pvp this weekend!

Proc gen is stupid. It only means you have an infinite number of caves that all look pretty much the same. Instead of a handful of caves created by an actual artist.

Yeah I did a Lost Sector last night that was amazing. It started with a cave entrance that was so dark I couldn't even tell it was an entrance and then when I got through the darkness it was a huge underground cavern that was beautiful. And that was just one of them. I can't wait to explore more.

Seriously gunning for a scrambly-crazy loot and shoot in a future release. edit: Agreed w/ Tei as below VVVVVVVV but if you had a lot of small detailed tiles that linked together, like the famous GBS Blue Ball Machine thread, that might look better. I saw a suggestion on reddit once like this that was basically just a big, narrow-gap jumping puzzle made out of those warping vex tiles, but tbh this may not be something that's as possible as I'd like on a multiplatform game; if I'm correct that also has way different mass-hosting requirements, as well.

Thinking about quitting solely because you can still only equip one emote. It's just about the worst decision for a game based on paying money to look stupid.

Future release wishlist: With all this new scenery, I wish they'd add "seats" in the tower cafe area, and also in the new faction areas (Looking at you, FWC and New Monarchy) so people could BE PART OF THE SCENERY and hang out and look stylish if they're idling in the tower or something. I don't know how "seats" work with this game, though, so I don't know the veracity of Interact Button => Play static or looping animation in scripted location. LeafyOrb posted:Joined Biggest Dumbest Space Men as LeafyOrb. Yep. I've promoted a crack team of ace button pressers and cool posters to administrate #3 in anticipation of this. I'm taking suggestions for [KINK] clan #4's name. edit: Soma Soma Soma posted:The clan link just puts me to a 500: Internal Server Error page.

I periodically get Cloudflare errors right now trying to do anything on the clans page, it looks like Bungie is getting haaaammered: https://www.bungie.net/en/ClanV2/Chat?groupId=2163070

Just picked this up on PS4, will probably try to join the goon group later today (though I'm kinda confused about the Discord thing - I thought that was just for PC? I haven't played many PS4 games with goons so I dunno how all that works). Couple quick questions - does it matter when I redeem the Coldheart weapon? Like should I wait until I'm max level or does the whole scaling system make it irrelevant? And are these EDZ token things common enough that I should just turn them in to the sniper guy in the church for reputation, or do I hold onto those? I haven't actually seen anyone else that even takes them yet, I don't think.

In the casual queue I haven't noticed it. In the 4 games of Competitive queue I played my enemies were a finely tuned high precision squad of 4 elite powerfuckers who were born to play Destiny. I don't know if there's a way to check if the enemy team is grouped outside of noticing that they always back each other up instantly or they move in a blob of 4. But that might just be good play and teamwork instead of a 4 stack. Quickplay/Casual is fun at least! If you like Halo shooting you'll get your money's worth with Destiny 2.

Coldheart will be given to you at a point where it makes sense; it can be infused up as high as you want after that. quote:And are these EDZ token things common enough that I should just turn them in to the sniper guy in the church for reputation, or do I hold onto those? I haven't actually seen anyone else that even takes them yet, I don't think. That is the only use for EDZ tokens, so may as well. You won't be able to get the rewards until level 20 so right now it makes no difference whether you turn in or hold (if you unlock a reward you can't claim yet the guy stops accepting tokens until you can so there's no chance of losing anything).

xzzy posted:Proc gen is stupid. It only means you have an infinite number of caves that all look pretty much the same. Instead of a handful of caves created by an actual artist. This is why people loved noted good game and cave re-user Dragon Age 2. Lots of games manage both. Diablo 2&3 have proc-gen areas with great art direction and some set-piece tiles that liven the place up. Bloodborne has huge wonderful artist-made areas and proc-gen dungeons for once the main game gets exhausted. The proc gen levels lose the distinctive character of the crafted areas, sure. But they give you back a continual feeling of "what's in the next room?" Destiny at launch had a handful of levels that they spread as thin as possible over a pretty small number of missions. In a game that is about doing the same thing over and over again to grind for more loot, it got old very fast which was disappointing because a sense of exploration was part of the selling point for the game. I remember very distinctly going through a Moon mission and then later on going through another mission and realizing it was the exact same environment but I was just going through it backwards. How is Destiny 2 in this regard? Is there a lot more terrain to cover?
