schmeo posted:my scrub account is SwankyCornholer if you want to add that as well. As one of the lovely players who is likely being protected by the current matchmaking, I am curious how it would be to make a new character. In terms of actual time invested, how long did it take to get decent weapons to play with? Did you level your entire super tree, or just get it started? It might be fun playing with a limited build, no reload gloves or extra armor gear. Anybody else going to lag it up in iron banner this week? I will be playing most nights so feel free to add me -cyansnow19 Fake Edit - PaulaDeensGunt may be my new favorite gamertag.

I decided to create an alt last night. Used my spark of light, which gave me a good scout, but then I ended up getting a Suros JPS 55 with Red-dot ORS and counterbalance. It is a Grasp/oversoul archetype and it kills hilariously fast. I played one game in the crucible and had the second highest score and highest KD. It was weird how bad some people were. I didn't see any cat emblems, but a lot of 334 players who would do stupid things like crouching down when getting shot trying to capture a point and not even trying to return fire. I had 3 or 4 throwing knife kills because people would stand still and shoot or run straight at me. I am a middling level player, and I felt over powered as a 26 with 125 light. I miss my trip mines, triple jump and a heavy machine gun, but it was fun. I just hope I am not killing some 8 year old kid playing on his brothers account. My new GT is NewbMeatShield if anybody wants to play. I will be doing banner under my normal account most of this week. Last_Taste fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Jul 19, 2016 |

Maker Of Shoes posted:Honestly they need to rethink what "Hard Mode" means. Perma death as a mechanic is really loving stupid. Thats why I never did KF on hard mode. VoG was fun and challenging and DB was fine except for glitches. Synchronized swimming where if one goes down you wipe? Combine that with the 16 orb strat? Nope. It isn't that hard to have a different mechanic: -60 second death penalty. Trigger a legions phase like the Templar. Lots of yellow bars for your team to clean up/chain supers until you can be revived. Hard, but potentially fun with a good team. or -Dead guardian is in a containment field which can only be destroyed by a fully changed super from another entering the field. Have to sacrifice your super to revive your team mate. or -Individual supers disabled at a boss, you still charge your super bar. If a team mate dies, boss is buffed, and a debuff is applied to the group. Individual guardians can use a superbar to break the debuff and get a specific buff (something like radiance, increased damage output and increased shields) to keep DPS levels to the boss around the same. Kind of like a torn between dimensions/aura of invincibility mechanic. Revived teammates remain torn and unable to damage the boss until they can recharge their super bar killing adds to re enter the fight. Teams have to call adds and plan who charges a super. Any of that garbage would be better than sitting there watching until the team wipes because I got hung up on a tiny piece of geometry.

victrix posted:Bloom as in 'repeated shots are less accurate even if you are perfectly on target each time' is lame but whatever But in the video, the shooter is outside the range. Below are two screen caps from the video. I made the cross hairs stand out more in each photo. In the top one, any shot will land within the white circle. ADSing it wills till fall between the 2 green lines on the thorn sights. I added the white to show the circle. The range they want you to play at is very close, but every bungie game since Halo CE used the circle sights to represent accuracy before bloom makes it get even larger. The dot covers most of the opponents head, and leave a lot of room to miss. Edit - I suck at posting pictures. Last_Taste fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Sep 13, 2016 |

A Buff Gay Dude posted:Lol how could anyone play this game solo? I played solo last night due to having to do real life stuff between games, and the salt was real. I got put into a game at 70-12 and it was non stop supers. I put up with it for a few hours to grind drops, but it was a painful experience. Several games our team was all 365 and lower matched against 2 teams of 3 with everybody 375 plus. It was very discouraging to see my hawksaw hit criticals at 22.

I had the thorn quest drop on my Titan. Real talk: Is the new thorn worth the grind? I would gladly do it with my warlock, but doing it with my titan sounds like slamming my huge dick in my corvette door.

Well, I guess its time to start hording my daily legendary engrams. From Bungie: On October 18th, corresponding with the release of Heroic Mode for Wrath of the Machine, your Maximum Light will be increased to 400. With this increase, many reward sources will also increase their maximum Light. Strike Hoards, Nightfall, Exotic Engrams, Trials of Osiris, Crucible, and Iron Banner will now provide rewards up to 400 Light. Archon’s Forge, the Heroic SIVA Strike playlist, and Legendary Engrams will now provide rewards up to 385 Light. Rare Engrams and the SIVA Strike Playlist will now provide rewards up to 365 Light. The recommended Light for these activities will remain the same with the exception of Nightfall, which will be increased to a recommended light of 380. For those striving to reach Heroic Wrath of the Machine or even attempt their first run at Normal Wrath of the Machine, players should find more paths and options available to them to reach the recommended Light. I will be buying a bunch of arm engrams from xur and saving them until next week.

To avoid boredom I am playing with all my PVP loadouts. I played as a sun breaker in supremacy this morning, and it was weird but fun to have a roaming super. What is the best sunbreaker exotic? I was using arma since I am used to having two lightning grenades, and the incendiary nades were pretty effective (I suck at sticking people with fusion). I know that immolation fists are a go to, but has anybody used dunemarchers? Matching it with the shoulder tackle super could be fun. Any other obvious choices I am missing? I always run voidwalker on my warlock, but I am going to switch to a shock lock. Are impossible machines the go to since landfall was nerfed, or is ophidian the new hotness for pvp? The only class I am going to have a hard time changing is my hunter. I love gunslinger, but the new tracking grenade gloves seem good, and I might finally try to run a blade dance. I just want my 1HK tripmines back...

Menstrual Show posted:Primary meta is, in order from most to least popular If you like hand cannons for PVP, buy the vendor palindrome (Crucible quarter master). It is a very good roll. If you have dead orbit ranked up, you can buy a competitive shotgun. It isn't a god roll at all, but you won't be totally outclassed. Use Truth or an older good roll machine gun until you can get a good one to drop. If you are grinding light levels, the weekly strike bounties can have some good gear via RNG. Lots of the bone krew still run strikes, so getting the bounties done isn't too hard. Otherwise run some forge for a ghost/artifact.

yamdankee posted:^^^ So my precious The Ram and Lifesteal won't actually regen a shield, just health? And they didn't mean to do this? Wow! That's pretty terrible... Guess its time to finally switch to shocklock. I like my blinking high armor ramlock. Surviving a shoulder charge, then quickly killing the titan was the best. I never got ophidians (F U RNG), but it sounds like they got nerfed as well.

If increased armor (over 10) reduces health, is there a reason to ever run high armor? Build to 10 using armor boosts, then give extra points to agility and recovery? Am I missing something?

pech posted:Do any of you guys wanna play with a level 10 who got the game yesterday and is really bad? Everyone I see is level 40 System and GT? Really you should play though the campaign to unlock all your class abilities and get some decent gear. Jumping into PVP with other players will suck because you won't be properly equipped and you won't know the maps. At this point even scrub pvp players know what works. PVE can be fun. Run missions and patrols, do public events for marks and buy good vendor gear when you hit 40. Once you can do strikes and dailies you will be rolling in marks and you can get better stuff.

I will probably run my litc lingering song for that reason. Its mayhem, primaries don't matter that much, so try for fun two shots. May have to use it with a WoL defender. Extra fun to run with a nightstalker. Since the bubble invites supers to challenge it, having a tether on top of or infront of the bubble is a fun way to troll people into trying to super you.

As much as Halo 5 sucked, it was very nice to have social and ranked playlists. I know that Bungo doesn't want to split the player base and they have always stated that destiny PVP was supposed to be fun and not super serious MGP tryhard mode, but there seems to be a good population trying to do just that. At least show us rankings like in the Halo days, so we can see the rank 50 players, and can try to contain them in game with team fire. Also, the lack of lag and responsive feel in halo 5 is a decent example of dedicated servers. Too bad the gun play and movement feel heavy and dated.
