anthem looks like division-destiny so maybe good if its RoI Destiny 1 and Division 1.6+ but its current bioware so Destiny 2 and Division 1.1 it is

big nipples big life posted:I bet in less than 21 minutes you could hop in one of the 10 trillion discords in this thread and say "Hey anyone want to do the nightfall?" and you could be done with the nightfall before the queue ends. I tried in 2 of the discords and only got one person over 15+ minutes - when ya run on working dad time where you just have an hour here and there to play games it's real frustrating to have a bideo gaem ask me to spend 5-10+ minutes of the hour trying to find people to play with in TYOOL 2017.

A Buff Gay Dude posted:Actually on console release you couldn't access mods via API, it was added right before pc release. Back when Destiny 1 was out they said the inventory and vault issues were due to the last gen systems not being able to handle storing that many things (what?) but now it’s obvious that they just loving suck rear end at UI and didn’t do a loving thing between 1 and 2. Seriously what the hell was most of Bungie doing during Destiny 2’s development? Did character designers and menu devs just get a massive vacation? Zedsdeadbaby posted:We had radar-less playlist in D1, it sucked. Everyone just sat in corners and didn't move. It was eventually removed. This is what happens when you make loadout based PvP and there’s zero reason to ever move around the map to pick anything up or control an area.

Lmao this is hilarious. I don't know which discord you are using but in the main destiny goons one (the Moana one) and the Hotdog PC specific one it's never an issue. Unless I guess you are trying to get a nightfall going at like 3am or something. I've never had it take longer than like, a couple minutes to get a nightfall group and then it's like what, ten minutes for the nightfall itself? Plus, if you make new friends from the discord, you can eventually look and see if any of them are online, and just ask them directly if you want to nightfall. Yes it sucks there's not just nightfall matchmaking, no it's not hard to get around though. And frankly when I pubbie strike and see how many kills I'm getting vs them or orbs created I do not actually think the nightfall would be that easy if it were match made.

I dunno why folks like war rig so much. It's not often I'm just massively unloading with a gun for that long to where it would matter. For me it's PVE: Skullfort for infinite turning your own body into a grenade and then throwing a free grenade and PVP: synthoceps for SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER teleports into people's faces and punching them.

You missed the great calus dps comp era but war rig absolutely slays in terms of damage per second. War rig and sweet Business is one of the few legitimately special loadouts in the game.

(Pretend I took a screencap of me asking in there with no responses and some lololroflmao) The main one is trials of the naan. Typically I check in hot dogs first and if I don't get a group I move to the main one. For night falls and poo poo don't worry about the !lfg tags and whatnot, just pop into general or one of the lfg channels and introduce yourself and ask if anyone wants to nightfall. A lot of dudes are like me and we just play solo until we see people looking for groups, and then we hop in. I've seriously not once had a group fizzle out or fail, there are seemingly always at least two other people who are down. Now, it can get a little more tricky on Sundays or Mondays because at that point a lot of people have run that content and don't need to do it again until the weekly reset, but even then some people are still willing to help out.

i dont have a skullfort so war rig is basically on my titan 100% of the time. autorifles are the best and its really convenient being able to reload without having to interrupt your sprinting, as well as passively reloading while you do literally anything else as well. i don't really care about the minmaxing of DPS personally but once you get used to almost never having to reload it makes it comparatively annoying when you have to reload every dozen shots with other guns also the ammo belts look is indeed cool

http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Anarchy_(Gaige) Anarchy stacks with a Machinomant changed videogames to me. Getting basically infinite power by never reloading is another era of gaming and a religious transformative experience. Ultimate power guys, just by teaching yourself the skill of never ever reloading.

Speaking of Destiny 2 competitors, I'm surprised Borderlands 3 hasn't been kicking up much of a stink lately. If it exists it would be an even bigger deal than Anthem, honestly. edit: and the inevitable Division 2, surprised a developer like Ubisoft hasn't gotten round to it yet. Or maybe they're deep into development already. Zedsdeadbaby fucked around with this message at 23:47 on Nov 9, 2017 |

The problem of Borderlands has always been the lack of endgame and lack of quality. The last borderlands (the prequel) had at some points the quality a bad mod done by a retarded 13 years old with MsPaint. And not "bad" in a funny way. Games like The Division had the same problem. Lack of solid endgame.

yeah but otoh the gameplay itself is unsatisfying because you have to shoot a regular rear end human dude in the head 20 times with a sniper rifle before he dies just because mmo gameplay expectations dictate that he has to have x health in order to be more difficult

Borderlands, much like Destiny/2 and The Division, are games that have a story and an end. You buy the game, you play the story, you get the level you want, you do the fun activities you want, and you can stop. There's no subscription fee. Nobody is saying "you must play this game or you will have wasted resources!" I don't understand this talk of 'endgame'. You did it guys! You played the game! Not the endgame, the whole game! If you like it you can keep playing it and if you don't like repeating bits of it you can move to another game, just like literally every other game that doesn't have recurring fees. Nobody's like "ugh, Uncharted 2 was a good game, but the lack of endgame really hurt it" and that game is only like 8 hours long.] e: Crucible still bad and Nightfall non-matchmaking still dumb, i am not uncritical bewilderment fucked around with this message at 00:15 on Nov 10, 2017 |

There's just, like, regular bandits. And a bunch of criminals that broke out of jail. And then there's the last battalion, who are elite mercs who're holding on to the best stuff for themselves. And then there's the cleaners, who decided to take things into their own hands and are using homemade flamethrowers to burn out the disease." "Oooh?
