How well does Slack handle multiple accounts? Because I already use it for work and if it makes it a pain in the rear end to use two logins then gently caress that poo poo.

I am driving to New Mexico in a few weeks to photograph the Perseids with a couple gaming bros. Meeting cool dudes is cool. Only thing I won't do is game with co-workers, it ends up awkward because I feel like I have to curb my language or it'll come back at me later. And if it turns out they're poo poo at games, how do you avoid playing with them without lovely excuses?

Not that I was a spammer before, but I would just run around with heavy out. It's the pro tier choice, and anyone who uses machine guns is used to it because they can't compete with rockets. So you let everyone else frag each other in 2 seconds then you can clean up without risk.

A constant flood of maps would suck anyways.. you'd never get a chance to really learn all the angles before something new hits. Eventually you'd hit a point where there's so many maps to play, you never really get to see your favorites anymore either. If you play two hours a night you're only going to see ~8 maps total and Destiny already has more than that available. And given their RNG has a habit of pulling the same map two or three times in a row you'll see even less. There's also the issue where if they were cranking out 2-3 maps every month the quality would get even worse. You think shores of time is lopsided now? Or that one spawn on twilight gap is bullshit? It would get way worse than that pretty quick.

Drain 001 posted:Yeah if only they had worked on a franchise that had 15 years of maps that they could draw inspiration from. Destiny has two halo maps, they're called First Light and Bastion. You never see them anymore because they're loving garbage. Halo is a completely different game.. has effective vehicles, power weapons you actually have to fight for, slower movement, and less vertical movement. Different games require different map styles.

SpookyLizard posted:Can bungie even remake Halo maps? Do they have any rights or is all owned by MS and 343? Technically yes, but it's unlikely anyone would care. Unless it turned into a PS4 exclusive map which would be loving hilarious. Can't really copyright the placement of boxes anyways. Just name the new map Bloody Gorge and make the bases squares instead of octagons and what is Microsoft going to do?

Raymn posted:I haven't played much in a while but I still like to occasionally do Iron Banner. What light level do I need to be to not be gimping myself by having slightly lower damage than max? Anything over 320 should do okay. You'll lose on some fringe cases but if you play smart you'll do fine. Over 300 is doable but the gap starts getting more noticeable.

Shotties are bullshit again/still. No one's using anything else. Even snipers are way down because they actually require some skill and why bother when you can just run at someone and get a guaranteed kill. Don't know how you change that, they need a higher skill ceiling though.

Ranking doesn't matter in IB, in fact you want to avoid rank 5 as long as possible so your pool of potential drops doesn't get cluttered with the ghosts (which seem to have a huge percentage chance). If you want guns you want to play as many games as possible for rank 3 and 4. You can get drops at all ranks, but anecdotally the chance of a drop seems to go up the higher your rank. if you finish your weeklies and save them for Sunday or Monday you'll hit rank 5 no problem.

I actually used fabian a bit today after someone was talking about it last night. I had some okay games, but it's inferior in every way to my counterbalance/braced frame arminius. Fabian is certainly fun when a UR rear end in a top hat charges at you in a straight line and the gun starts shooting ten billion bullets a second, but at mid ranges it's loving garbage. You only win against scrubs. It either needs way more stability/range (like monte carlo) or more impact. The cute little shields should give you +1 armor too.

I didn't see a single UR today, probably because I was playing with some lower skill bros and it kept me from having to face off against the sweaties. I'm not great but I think my rank gets inflated a bit when I play with wrecks/rasheed and it screws everything up for a while. Then I play with normal humans and things settle down and the game is more fun.

Best shotgun counter I've come up with is a bullet hose and fusion rifle combo. They're the only things out there that have a consistent chance to kill a shotgun rusher before they close to OHK range. Each weapon works differently though, fusions are better for sliders because you just arc your bolts downwards and should be able to roast them. But the AR is better at range. Omnipresent strikers are a hilarious counter too. Was rolling with four titans yesterday, all of us had armamentarium on. Routes were constantly blanketed in lightning and rushers didn't have a chance.

IB drops felt pretty steady to me, but I attribute a lot of that to delaying hitting rank 5 until today. It kept ghosts out of the pool and I got several drops. No god roll weapons but a bunch of infusion bait which I was running low on anyways. I also got two primary exotic engrams which are super rare for me (it's almost always heavy or helmets) so that should be nice to have in my pocket when ROI launches.
