Announcing a New Rule: Platform Neutrality. Everybody love everybody...or you're f***ing banned!

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 11:33 AM PDT

Hi there!

So here we are- the D2 cat's out of the bag, the final update to Destiny is live, and we've all purchased our non-stop tickets to Hypeville. On behalf of the subreddit, we'd like to welcome all you new folks and welcome back all you hiatus folks- we're very excited to have you!

This week has been an incredible reminder of why we love this subreddit, this community, and all those who are part of it. The game, its makers, its players, and its fans have combined to make something truly great- a thriving community of people from all different walks of life who can relate to each other and find common ground in the Destiny experience.

In that regard, we have revived Rule 7 and given it a new function! This was formerly the "no unnecessary edits" rule. You can find the exact text and all pertinent information below.

Preemptive TL;DR: everyone is welcome here regardless of what device they choose to play Destiny on, and being a jerk about that choice will quickly make you unwelcome here.


New Rule Addition - Platform Neutrality

7. This subreddit is Platform Neutral. Insults, personal attacks, condescension, or similar behavior relating to the merits of platform choice will not be tolerated. This is a bannable offense. Players of all platforms are welcome here, bullying is not.

How will this be enforced?

  • Rule 7 will be enforced in conjunction with Rule 1. If your comment or post would normally warrant a warning for Rule 1 and ALSO falls under Rule 7, you will receive a 2-day ban from the subreddit for the first offense. Bans become exponentially longer on subsequent offenses.

  • As with almost all of our rules, whether a comment or post has crossed the line will be up to the Moderators' discretion. As a team, we always strive for fairness and consistency, and we utilize your feedback and individual responses to direct us.

Who does this apply to?

  • Everyone. This applies equally to console players insulting PC players for tangential or direct association with "PC Master Race" tendencies or beliefs; this applies to PC players condescendingly describing the technical specifications of consoles to someone they are arguing with. Basically, if your comment is ad hominem then you are ad-ded to our ban list.

Why should we care?

For those of you who are brand new to Destiny, its community, this subreddit, or even reddit in general, it should already be evident to you that this community prides itself on being welcoming, helpful, fun, and informative. None of those characteristics necessitate petty arguments over a person's choice of gaming platform. People are free to make that choice, it does not affect you, please do not go out of your way to make it affect you. We will all be united in our salt.

What about jokes?

Look, this modteam might be boring but we still have a sense of humor, however inane and juvenile it might be. Many of us have been doing this for a few years now, every day, for unhealthy portions of the day at times. We can usually tell the difference between a joke or playful banter and an underhanded or thinly-veiled insult.

We are not unreasonable people, as I'm sure many of you can attest to- if you believe you were banned unjustly, please reply to the ban message you received with why you feel that way.

Protip: if you are a dick to us in modmail, we will (usually) give you a chance to chill out. If you are still a dick, you'll be ignored and/or mocked with gifs and meta-jokes.


Other Notes!

  • New people! We will be seeing a LOT of Kinderguardians in the coming months- for both Destiny 2 AND The Collection. Please welcome them, help them, guide them- show them why they want to be part of our community. Remember- you were new here once too!

  • PC and Cross-Platform Info - WE DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING YET! Bungie has not yet told us whether cross-platform play will exist, if characters will transfer between platforms, what the recommended specs are, or when our shill checks are coming we will know this information. We have begun removing frequent reposts/questions of this nature under Rule 2. As this information becomes available, we will ensure it can be found in a centralized location for you all.

  • Pre-order bonuses, beta codes, etc. - Please search before asking a question related to pre-orders of Destiny 2. There are a ton of threads about this already, and the comments are generally consistent and accurate. ALSO- please do not disparage, mock or insult people for pre-ordering. It's their money, they can do what they want with it. You're not their real dad.


FIN

That's it, thanks for taking the time to read/scan/skim...at least...maybe?

We appreciate you and we appreciate your help and participation in making this subreddit great! As always, the modteam will be answering questions or concerns in the comments.

Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

The "Also, there will be a ton of loot" is so funny to us because we feel that Bungie now knows what we want and what we are always talking about

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 03:54 AM PDT

Seriously I loved that part

I'm truly 100% confident and happy to see our beloved game going the right direction. I feel that this relaxed approach since TTK is finally going to give the identity that our game really deserves.

EDIT: /u/Nickthetaco described exactly why we loved this trailer so much

That is actually what I really loved about the trailer. It felt like Zavala was talking to actual guardians, and Cayde was talking to the players.

I can't wait to May 18th!!

Would you be interested in a Play Anywhere copy of Destiny?

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 07:13 AM PDT

For those who are unaware, due to the heavy integration of the Windows Store for Windows 10 and the Store on the Xbox One, Microsoft has been able to release a feature called "Play Anywhere"

Any game with this feature means you purchase the game once, and can download to PC and your Xbox, using cross saves.

It does not mean there will be cross platform play, but it does mean you could continue leveling your character on multiple devices.

There a quite a few games using play anywhere, mostly first party titles like Gears of War 4, Halo Wars 2, Recore, etc. etc. However, the newest Resident Evil was announced as Play Anywhere at the last second, even though Sony had the exclusive advertising and content rights, similar to Destiny.

Personally, for a game like Destiny I would LOVE this. Being able to have LAN parties by just bringing my gaming laptop over, or having the option to continue leveling my character when on a business trip.

Zavala only Version & Cayde-6 only versions of 'Rally the Troops' Trailer

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 07:58 AM PDT

Good afternoon Guardians,

After yesterdays 'Rally the Troops' reveal trailer for Destiny2, I've had some pretty interesting discussions about how each side of Zavala or Caydes speeches either 'enhance' or 'detract' away from themselves and actually in some ways 'spoil' the Trailer

I went digging and I've found these so EVERYONE can get the best out of the Destiny 2 reveal trailer

To which ever side of the fence you fall on, Enjoy


- Zavala ONLY Version

- Cayde-6 ONLY Version

- Rally the Troops - Full Trailer


TLW

Everything this game does sparks great debates and that is only a positive point for the future of Destiny

Hope you all got your pre-orders in


Happy Friday, Guardians

The only promotional thing I'm looking forward to for Destiny 2 is another Luke Smith rapid fire interview

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 05:33 AM PDT

Please, Luke, this was my favorite thing about the promotion of TTk!

The queen wasn't here to save our asses this time

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 07:00 AM PDT

Mara Sov prevented the fallen from uniting and overwhelming the city AND stopped oryx's entire force before he got to earth.

The moment she's gone the city got fucked up by the cabal army. She's probably shaking her head wherever she is.

Sword-block the Shrieker death blast, it saves so much more time then running from it.

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 07:55 AM PDT

Our team started having 2 people kill the Shrieker and then block the blast. It saves about 10 seconds overall, which is huge at Deathsinger. It takes very little ammo to do this, and hardly hurts you.

I've seen posts about using bubble titans or self res, but those classes are far better off on Striker and Stormcaller for this section.

Edit: Have two people with Raze Lighter do this, Dark Drinker is void much like the Shrieker death blast and you will die.

Dark Drinker coupled with Radegast artifact will also block the blast, with the benefit of deflecting some of the death blast onto the Knights that spawn from Ir Yut's chamber. [SGA]

Dear Bungie/Activision: we'd rather have a delayed, complete, polished release, than a early broken one

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 02:26 AM PDT

I've seen enough unfinished games that were pushed by activison to meet a deadline, I don't want D2 to be one of them.

End of Destiny 1

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 04:57 AM PDT

I would love to have one update on the 6th or 7th of September where they actually have a cabal invasion on the tower. Just a single mission that can't be won. Whether just over run or you get to a point where you can't fight. Say slowly losing all your weapons during the mission. Being injured etc etc etc. What would all you like to see in the final days?

D2 Has An Advantage over D1 Straight Out of the Gate.

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 01:30 AM PDT

I have a Solar Flayer Mantle that means alot to me. It was there the first time I downed The Taken King, it saw Siva infest the Cosmadrone, killed Aksis, reached the tip of Felwinter, saw the Lighthouse for the first time. If Gary is going to take it away from me, along with my Hung Jury, Invective, and Stinkin' Year 3 Fatebringer, then I have more of an emotional desire to see him dead than I have had in all of D1!

Destiny 2 Reveal was a tale of two viewpoints

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 08:07 AM PDT

With Zavala reflecting how Bungie sees themselves and Cayde reflecting how Bungie sees us.

Gary's name (ghaul) could mean something else....

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 06:56 AM PDT

So as we all know by now the cabal use Roman names to describe their troops I.e legionnaire,centurion etc well the Romans took over modern day France and Germany and what were the names of the people living there? Gauls. I feel this explains the use of new units as they could have been conscripted from a different planet. Thoughts?

Got Friends who are interested in D2 but felt "Burned" by Vanilla D1 PvE and want to show them the Light? - I made a handy table for you!

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 06:37 AM PDT

Hello DTG!
So essentially when I try to explain how the game has grown since Vanilla to people I often find myself saying "They have more than doubled the content".
I never actually bothered quantify this until recently.
So if you know people who played Destiny 1 at launch and enjoyed it, but felt the Grind or Lack of Content left them feeling burned out or conned?
Well look no further for some evidence to the contrary.
Even forgetting how much less the grind is (16 Bounty slots, Multiple roads to LL390, Better QoL and currency economies, trading x for y) you can say well "there is ~3x more content"

Content Type Vanilla The Dark Below House of Wolves The Taken King April 2016 Update Rise of Iron Total
Core Missions 20 3 5 19 1 6 54
Strikes 6 2 1 4 1 1 15
Social Spaces 1 - 1 - - 1 3
Patrol Areas 4 - - 1 - 1 6
Prison Of Elders Room Types - - 4 4 - - 8
Raids 1 1 - 1 - 1 4
Extra Stuff - - PoE/ToO added 4-8* - 3 Exotic Missions & Archons Forge 7 - 11 approx
Totals 32 6 11 29 2 8 97

I have limited this to PvE as PvP is not for everyone.
I'd welcome any/all feedback about the figures and if you think some are incorrectly stated :)

Asterix = 1-3 New Subclasses, 2 (?) Exotic Missions, 1-3 Subclass Missions, Quests added

EDIT: I made some slight adjustments. As I said in one comment "If I only ever play every piece of content once, how much is there?" was my ethos when compiling this. I didn't want to get bogged down in Modifiers, Normal/Hard/Challenges, Quests etc since people would view it as "Thats the same thing repeatedly"
I just want to say, I understand the arguments for AoT Record Book or SRL adding Value to the game, but that was not in the scope of why I created this.
Think of it like this, if you created a lvl0 character now, how much would there be for you to do solo (with no pre-made fireteams for the most part, Raids aside) if you never did the same thing twice :)
Sorry I should have been a bit more clear earlier when I posted the 1st time, my bad guys and gals.

I'm no god, but here's my 390 Crota solo.

Posted: 31 Mar 2017 03:44 AM PDT

Hey guys, it's taken me about 12 hours but I've finally managed to solo 390 crota, I know that Gladd did about 5 hours after the patch, and I will never be as good as him, but here's mine anyway :)

Full run of the kill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIK9Wm7N6o4

Doing the new Crota's End last night and we were struggling a bit getting the Deathsinger challenge completed. Then, this happened. Unfortunately, I didn't have recording of group chat going, but you can imagine there was much cheering and relief.
