When you think about it, the old D1 tower literally towering over D2's tower is an admittance by Bungie that D1 was the superior game and 2 will always be in its shadow -literally.

Gambit can be hard, my friend. You are closer to your next rank up and reward than you were before the loss, and you'll get them next time!

Use the EP shotgun too!

I don't mind losing but at some point it would be nice to fight someone else. I just don't know what the matchmaking is doing.

I'm winning about half the time and doing well personally but when that happens I'd like to just move on instead of retry forever

Slayerage beat it earlier today. He's doing a second run with two players that he doesn't usually play with. They are bitching a lot, so it's a great semi-preview on what LFG groups will be like.

Has anyone on the PSpoor noticed slowdown towards the end of Gambit games? Not lag or anything, the game seems to be physically slowing down. It gets hard to even move my gun. Stopping and restarting the game fixes it for a bit but it seems pretty consistent.

Just came back for the expansion after not playing since before Warmind, and while I haven't tried gambit yet it seems like everything is slow. Seems like menus and loading screens take twice as long and thought I felt some slow down during some of the more hectic parts of one of the barrons adventures.

Yeah, I noticed it takes forever to load into the Tower now too. It's not happening every time but it's happening frequently enough, and sometimes severely enough, that I was starting to wonder if my PS4 was breaking down a bit.

Might be time to upgrade I guess.

I was starting to wonder the same thing (original D1 launch PS4 here). But every other game/app launches fine. Think there is just some seriously unoptimized/bloated code in there.

Playing the game on my launch Xbox was getting super bad, to the point I think the internal hard drive is spewing errors but hasn't quite failed yet. Like I'd start a strike and everyone would be 30+ seconds ahead of me when I finished loading.

Got a Samsung t5 off amazon and moved destiny to that drive, it's fixed things real good. The new triumph/collections menus have loading spinners all the time but I figure that's just because they crammed a ton of crap into it that the console doesn't keep cached.

One of the purple transmit effects that are new, the reef shimmer one? It’s so many particles of light brings my Xbox one x down to single frames every single time I load in somewhere. That owns.

Are you guys infusing up your sleeper stimulant before using it in gambit? Or just taking it in there at 385?

I’m always confused as to whether it’s the gun’s specific LL that matters, or your overall LL when it comes to pve (and I guess now gambit pvp) DPS.

Many many guns good in pvp now

Pvp good now

My rush melee in pvp REAL FUKKEN BAD

I have no idea why. It's not lag (much, rare teleporting duder on the other team, nbd). I'm just loving whiffing hard with shoulder charges and sentinel/striker bashes.

Normal melee seems ok, but jesus gently caress, I shoulder charged through multiple people over the last several nights.

Wonder how IB will be. Wonder if 540-550 light will let you two tap people with a 110 HC.

If you guys still want some more lore chat, in one of the new lore bits they say that Ahamkara and Worm Gods are actually different species that developed the same memetic-hypnotic-magic tactic of "Oh, --- mine" through loving CONVERGENT EVOLUTION, I poo poo you not. So, yeah.

Thats what started the debate actually, we were just arguing over it being a retcon or not like Rasputin's change in location.

They should remove the ability for the invader on Gambit to see where the enemy players are. Make them hunt the players down. It’s cheesy, especially when your primeval is up and there’s isn’t, that they can send a dude over nonstop who knows exactly where you are at all times.
