It's a bit of a hassle to switch to the SSD, but the effect on menu load times is enormous. It went from a major thorn in the side to a complete non-issue (although it still doesn't like loading ships/sparrows/shader previews while you're in warp).

You don't just plug it into the USB port and download the game to it?

Oh yeah, this is where I always end up giving up, when it turns out that only an internal SSD upgrade will make any improvements and that it requires a bunch of stupid tools and bios flashing or whatever

Im trying to get a useable roll on a hard truths.

The only roll that might actually make it not poo poo is: Medium zoom scope, zen moment, tap the trigger and stability MW. And a counter balance mod.



It gets owned HARD if you miss any headshots. The magazine is unforgivably tiny too. I have actually had better luck with...




Because apparently Zen Moment only gives a 66% boost to the base stability, so it only gets a 66% boost to its native 15 stability. T-T-T gives very high stability until Under Pressure starts kicking in.

Of course both of these are about to get worse when Ricochet gets nerfed, but it'll still probably be best in slot perk for the gun.

Hold on to your IB tokens. IB will give enhanced perks for the armor 2.0 season starting next season. Many are hoarding tokens this IB specifically to use next season!

Got a Gnawing Hunger the other night right before I logged off. Haven't gotten to play with it much but it had Zen Moment and the Demolitionist perk. I stuck a Counterbalance mod on it and Arrowhead Breaks so it's a laser now. Excited to get home and try it out tonight. Also excited to see how it performs when it's buffed in Shadowkeep.

Due to the silly way that recoil Direction works, your gun is actually worse with a counter balance mod in it. If you just use Arrowhead and any other mod, your Recoil will be more manageable.

TWAB say: Shadowkeep still coming out on Oct 1. We're fixing the "Apply" bug for real this time. Partial Campaign Progress will be reset Oct 1 but also you won't need to complete Campaigns to access endgame content anymore

has this been posted anywhere? whose been saying it?

Last week's TWAB

Lightweight and Adaptive hand cannons use a new firing animation while aiming down sights

This change was made to increase weapon accuracy when firing these weapons as fast as possible

Ex: Currently, players can shoot faster than the recoil animation of 140/150 archetypes – so while the handcannon looks to have fully reset from recoil, the following projectile will be shot as if the weapon was still in a recoiled state.

I mean, the content coming out is exactly the same crap we've been shoveling down our gullets for the past 12 months, so I don't see a lot of risk here

There are new ones, and also old ones. They tried to avoid making our y2 guns obsolete throughout y2.

Reallllyyyy hoping Xur offers the Huckleberry this week as that's the only Exotic I have left that I really want. I also just realized my girlfriend will be gone from the 3rd-6th so I'm probably going to take vacation next Friday and just play Shadowkeep all weekend.

Did you buy his Fated Engram this week? If you're literally only missing one exotic, he'll give you the Huckleberry in the Fated Engram.

The new Shadowkeep trailer showed someone wearing armor 2.0 trials armor

Probably just flawless ornaments but it got me wondering about what it would mean for comp if they brought back trials. Can destiny support two versions of "Losses Matter end game pvp"? Would comp just turn into trials on the weekend? Or maybe trials could come back as a monthly thing like iron banner

Or maybe it's never coming back since like 0.5% of the population legitimately gives a toot

Hell no we don't, and Bungie has gotten wise to our Shenanigans and puts stuff in the API literally as a troll. See solar week
