Lexorin posted:I mean, I feel D2 PvP is already in the "If you're not good there's no point" arena and not everyone has 5 or even 2 other people to play with. I had a hard enough time getting my partner to play and they hate PvP more than I do so that ship will never sail even if I did want to pvp. There have been some astonishingly silly generalizations about PvP and PvE players from the other side over the years but points for getting way out in front I guess.

Shockeh posted:Why aren't we playing together Orv? I’m not playing at the moment or for the foreseeable future. Got tired of the seasonal regrind and tired of the Bungie cycle of “Make mistake, fix six months later, make similar but slightly different mistake, repeat forever.” Still pretty much my favorite shooter of all time but the MMO elements weigh it down - as they currently are - more than help it in the end.

Bobby Deluxe posted:Has anyone else had the 'bonus round' happen after the boss round? About 5 or so tormentors spawned in, but we suddenly had mayhem uptime on our abilities. Yes and just once, no clue what caused it. Score or time presumably but it wasn't a terribly notable run by either standard.

Collateral Damage posted:It didn't help that when you were doing the campaign initially you didn't have a proper strand build and had to do with whatever random poo poo you got from activating the strand node. I assume it just gave you the abilities, no aspects or fragments. You get one aspect and I believe one fragment for the last two missions whenever you activate strand in them. Depending on your class they're of pretty varying usefulness but it's something, I guess.

I did a Coil the other day with two people who used nothing but Wish Ender the entire time. Wish Ender is great but that was certainly an experience.

Related to Neomuna stuff, is there any decent way to get red borders out of there? Seems like all the methods people had a year ago have been greatly nerfed.

I just want one of them which makes the math even funnier. Guess I’ll just be done with Neomuna tomorrow when I get the glaive that’s already been murdered for being good. E: Which is mostly just a consequence of a live game but it is funny how they keep giving us more glaives but every time they make them worth using they get the boot.

Finster Dexter posted:I did this pre-nerf, so YMMV but you can spawn in at the Terminal Overload zone and zip through the zones to check for heroic patrols, then hit the Terminal Overload to reload into new instances, and just do that forever. (if you spawn into a Terminal Overload that's on the last phase, you can finish it in a few mins to get a couple more rolls) You can get heroic patrols pretty quickly, but I guess you have to do a lot more just to get the red borders, so ehhh it's gonna be a slow grind no matter what I guess. This still works but yeah whatever the red border rate from heroic patrols is now it’s not worth it.

Bobby Deluxe posted:… Eh, I think that remains kind of a self-fulfilling problem. If you force yourself to do the things that aren’t fun then you’re always going to hate it. That said, every grind in Destiny could be 40-60% shorter and only the people at the top of Bungie obsessed with metrics would be harmed. It’d be nice if every time they go “Yeah actually we agree this is a problem” they didn’t do another ridiculous grind three months later. Or a triumph with bizarrely specific requirements or whatever. The core game remains one of the funnest out there though, so it’s a weird dichotomy.

Collateral Damage posted:It would also help if there were multiple paths to a given reward so you didn't have to grind a single activity until you hate it. Maybe add an activity currency that just lets you buy red borders, which in turn is rewarded from doing activities related to the source of those guns. Like for Neomuna guns do lightfall missions, neomuna patrols, lost sectors, terminal overload, hypernet current, etc. The thing where doing any activity has a chance for seasonal engrams is halfway figuring this out, honestly.

Warlock stasis super is so bad that feeding Ager's is a massive DPS increase over it or at least used to be, maybe they realized that was insane. There's some fun stuff you can do with it, it can feed some particularly ridiculous Bleak Watcher setups but if you're not feeling it that isn't likely to change.

syntaxfunction posted:When they said TFS campaign is gonna just be one long campaign not broken up with "also now go do some patrols or some poo poo" I was extremely happy. It'd be cool if they streamlined the rest of the campaigns to do that. That would be nice but honestly Lightfall was pretty tight already. The recent confirmation that they’re going BL/WQ style of the first episode being a direct continuation and most of the expansion content unlocking post-campaign makes me more concerned about the pacing of what comes after the main missions.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Is there any aspect of D1 Mars in the game? The D2 Mars sandbox/tileset are pretty distinct. It's probably a lot more work to add a strike to D2 when its underlying planet isn't a part of D2. Just a few of the Cabal placeables they’ve continued to use AFAIK. marhom posted:Yirix is still out there, yeah. Everything around Nez (full stop but) and his relationship with the Psions is unresolved, and Lakshmi-as-maybe-msund12 is a wrinkle that has obviously come back up a couple of times this year. Sounds more like an episode bad guy than maybe a mid-campaign boss but it’ll probably come up.

dodgeblan posted:lol i think that that they're doing this basically proves that d3 is coming I could see this in support of D3 or a continued D2 honestly. If they just unsunset everything and said go wild yeah absolutely D3 in two years or whatever, Age of Triumph 2 next year. But reissuing updated versions of old guns always seems to take them a weirdly long time so if they’re committing to that - in as much as ‘we’re planning to do X’ can be a meme with Bungie - I think they’d be unlikely to do that if they’re not just going to continue in this doomed world they’ve created.

Was doing Seraph Shield since I stopped right at the start of that season last time i was playing, is that teleporter about half way through that goes down into the jumping area for the old catalyst quests? Stumbled in there on accident and it seemed surprisingly extensive to have nothing.

Mostly I don’t like champions because I think Bungie’s combat design - which I dunno how Destiny still just feels like Halo after two decades of turnover, kind of impressive - doesn’t feel great when enemies have too much health. It’s less of a problem these days with how much power we have but it still just kinda breaks the flow for a second.

The complete lack of checkpoints in the Vexcaliber mission is a choice. Admittedly I'd be less annoyed by it right now if I hadn't had some kind of Battleye error and have to redo more or less the whole thing but scream.
