Frankly I think masked PvP bounties are kinda cruel, because you're basically hosed unless you and your team are PvP masters. Which, let's be honest, most pubbies are not. I mean, I'm not either so that doesn't help.
don't do the PvP masked bounties in IB and it doesn't matter at all (ok, it matters a little bit since you're missing out on helmet perks, but it shouldn't prevent you from winning)

*only puts my mask on as the Primeval is summoned in the final round, or in the last minute of a Crucible match, and takes it off right after*

Most people are retarded, you say?

On Xbox and PS4 you can’t do that. If you go into the menu when the primeval spawns it’ll be dead before you finish loading.

Not that you should have to spend a hundred bucks to compensate for poo poo code, but running Destiny off an SSD makes a pretty big difference. Menus render much faster and load times are noticeably quicker.

The exotic situation is such rear end

Exotics are cool and powerful again, so:

1) make some with a hard but guaranteed path to acquisition (see worm, whisper of the and Malfeasance, but pretend the rng starts were removed)

2) make the remainder easy to get via rng

3) always have duplicate protection (see: Xur)

It's absolutely asinine how bad they are at so much of this poo poo

Has something happened with the matchmaking in comp in the last week? I got up to 1720 or so, and sense then I've been going almost straight down to like 1100. I'm getting a bunch of matches vs. stacks, while I have players on my team that are 30 light or something. Also constantly getting afk players.

Adventures in me having no idea what's going on in the plot. I started up the first mission of Forsaken. I'm in a cutscene watching some guy die for real I guess I'm not sure how these ghosts are supposed to work. I have not played the first game or the first two add-ons to this game. I'm wearing someone else's face over my face because of the Halloween event. Bungee probably wants me to care about this dying man.

Dinklebots hide in your backpack and revive you when you get owned in crucible. You're immortal until someone shoots the dinklebot, which seems to happen a lot, but never to you though the implication is when you gently caress up and get the raid wiped the enemies end up shooting the dinklebots. The other implication is most dinklebots are incredibly stupid and don't hide in the backpack a whole lot.

I’ve had a hilarious time with Riskrunner lately. Purposely running through the vex milk to get lit and then trashing dozens of enemies is amazing. I finished a haunted forest run last night with 160 kills and the closest teammate to me had 80.
