Some clan mates wanted to try and get max 5500 rank and the said they could wait up to 30 minutes for a games.

The lower glory ranks aren't as brutal but yeah gently caress that.

I think putting trials away for a season and bringing it back reworked will create some good hype for it and be a cornerstone of season 5. We will have enough to do anyways. Smart move imo

Thank gently caress that radar is coming back. Taking it away was just about the single most stupid thing bungie has ever done.

I think Bungie's done stupider, just because no radar in Trials only affected a small subset of Destiny players. Switching loadouts from Primary/Special/Heavy to Primary/Other Primary/Heavy was worse. Forced 4v4 on everything was also worse.

I refused to play Comp/Trials with it gone and would continue to not play either until it came back if ever. Nice to see they 180'd it.

I got conned into one game of Trials with it gone and immediately regretted it 15 seconds into the match.

No radar is a very smart decision in a game with a low ttk, a narrow FOV, and weapon models designed to block your vision.

You just aren't on Bungie's level.

D2 has a relatively high TTK compared to most other shooters...which is maybe what you meant to say anyways?

High TTK = it takes longer to kill enemies
Low TTK = It takes less time to kill enemies

Yes, I know what TTK means.

To be precise, Destiny is in the middle, somewhere between the one shot kill crowd and the bullet sponge crowd. I believe it sits on the shorter side of the median, and is why getting blindsided is so deadly. You're gonna be dead before you can react. Which is why no radar is stupid.

(ridiculous auto aim makes it easier to kill in Destiny as well)

most of the lore that concerns the farm comes from Adventures which all take place before Ghaul becomes a cum ghost

A bunch of the Earth legendary stuff seems to note it expanding or becoming a new town and you can't get that until after Ghaul Becomes Legend (tm). Various bits reference it onward as well.

I don't care for the orchestral swells. Destiny is all about cool atmospheric dark techno like in the whisper mission and the Alak-Hul bossfight from Taken King.

https://db.destinytracker.com/d2/en/items/2414612776-new-city for one, but I guess I was conflating it with a few other things. I was pretty sure the idea was humanity was moving outside the City, which you wouldn't know, because you never move outside the City again.
