Posted: 12 Jun 2018 09:03 AM PDT And this quote: "We are very comfortable saying that if you're working on faction rallies right now, or the things that are coming in the summer, that'll still be totally worth it because you'll be able to bring that stuff into the new content," Taylor said. "But we have a lot more details to talk about there, but we can definitely assure people that'll be the case." [link] [comments] |
Bungie: Please let us adopt Colonel Posted: 12 Jun 2018 07:30 AM PDT Bungie, Who's going to take care of Colonel, Cayde's chicken? Here's why I think our Guardian is the best adoptive parent for Colonel, and why the other major players just won't do:
Therefore, the only ones who have the experience, competence, and knowledge to take care of Colonel - are us. We knew Cayde-6 well (we were his favorite guardians). Animals (space rabbits, space toads, wolves, Louis) are comfortable in our presence. Most important, we can give Colonel the revenge he so desperately seeks. A child who has lost its parent should have to right to look its parents' murderer in the eyes before pecking them out. Bungie, let us adopt Colonel and lead him into battle against Uldren and the Fallen. We will not fail our chicken. EDIT: Ok, some of you made great suggestions as to alternative adoptive parents but none of them will work unfortunately.
EDIT 2: Oh wow, we're going there. Ok, here it is.
This should definitively account for all major NPCs CURRENTLY in Destiny 2. If not, I'll eat a salad for lunch. (I got caught. I missed a number of people, so I'm delivering. I have no vegetables at home, imagine that. https://imgur.com/a/0Tryev7) Bungie, this community of animal-loving Guardians has spoken. Please ensure Colonel's health and well-being in Forsaken. (THANKS FOR THE GOLD! Ca-caw!) [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Jun 2018 06:24 AM PDT I really wanna boop him with the tractor cannon right after he pops his super... And I swear if he has any kind of "stomp" AOE move and I can't punch him (Titan 4lyfe), I'll be real mad. Edit: Dude! Thanks for Gold whoever you are! I can't believe my Mom always said I'd never make any money off of playing video games! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Jun 2018 09:07 AM PDT On another note: it'll feel more personal fighting him if he actually remembers us. [link] [comments] |
Embargo is over: Let's chat about the summit / new stuff for Destiny Posted: 12 Jun 2018 09:35 AM PDT I AM GONE TO E3 NOW, I will try to respond when I get back or have a break. Look at the comments to see popular answer :) Love you guys and have a great day Edit: Just a heads up, we still don't know about some systems like shaders / mods yet. We discussed them and gave great feedback on them, but they were still being built and adjusted. I will try to answer questions, but I simply don't have enough info yet haha. If nothing else, this post is to hopefully give you guys a bit of faith in what is to come. I am pretty cynical, and I am very excited for the future. Hey Guys! I don't want to get into crazy detail, and I think it would be best if I try to answer burning questions from you in the comments, rather than trying to cover everything in the initial post. I am at E3, so I may have to come back and do a burst of answers later on. I will try my best to hit the majority. However there are a few things I want to say off the start: 1. A lot of us focused more on what Bungie needs to do in the future, not what happened in the past. I know it may be interesting why things "fell apart", but I don't really feel like covering that. The majority of discussion was what comes next, so let's focus on that!2. I can't really discuss stuff that is really far down the road. I can't get into personal details or stuff Bungie may want to bring back but hasn't announced / shown. I am not leaking shit or trying to burn bridges with deep dive details. I will talk about what I knowNow let's start! Gambit is insanely fun: Many of us believe Gambit is stellar. And when I say that, this is coming from a very PVP oriented guy. Datto ALSO thinks it is stellar. It is a game mode that has something for everyone, and the mass majority of people WILL enjoy this game mode. It has crazy come back moments, crazy clutch wins, and honestly, it may be so big it rivals early trials of osiris for community engagement with content. It may be one of the biggest game modes for the series yet, and I am already craving playing it again. I am excited for everyone to try it, because whether you like shooting dregs or grinding PVP, it will most likely be enjoyable for you! There will be 100 different ways to win, and I doubt any "meta" will form any time soon. It is too diverse in potential tactics. Weapon Slot Changes: Do you like Destiny 1's weapon system? Good! Use it. Do you like Destiny 2's weapon system? Good! Use it. There is a way to build your character load-out for everyone going into forsaken. I think literally everyone will enjoy this change, and it brings a lot of outplay potential to the crucible. Having access to a shotgun or sniper frequently leads to a lot of cool moments. I honestly believe this shift will instantly make PVP more fun. There may need to be some tweaks soon after launch to get everything running smoothly, but as of now, playing with this new weapon system felt really nice. I think it will take some time to figure out the best way to balance the sandbox, but even if primary weapons retain their TTK, the game "should" speed up due to players having more power in their other weapon slot. I believe players won't group up as much and will be aggressive because they feel more confident with the weapons they have equipped. The Bow is as fun if not more fun than NLB I don't know how "good" the bows are for PVE and PVP, but they may be the most fun weapon I have ever used in Destiny. Being able to pull back the string behind cover, pop out, and absolutely destroy enemies felt AMAZING. One of the highest fun factor weapons to ever release. I'm serious. I am craving playing with it haha AMMO SYSTEM Not fully disclosed, but in the Gambit build, "Primary weapons" like hand cannons and scouts use white ammo, and "special weapons" like shotguns used green. If you try to run a kinetic and energy shotgun, they will both share this green ammo and you may starve yourself of ammo very quickly. This system may change / adapt as the summer goes on, so we can't focus on it too much. But it appears to be a similar ammoo economy as Destiny 1. I think it played nicely overall. And if you want to snipe, shotgun, or use the bow a bunch, you will have a lot more uptime than current Destiny 2 "Power ammo" Supers are DOPE AS HELL: While I haven't got to play a few of them, the new supers add some wicked fun to Destiny. Death from above Heatseeking titans, HEALER warlocks, Void Dancing hunters. I think these new supers have a lot of fun factor built into them, and they have some pretty cool niche strengths. Destiny 2 has felt very similar to D1 for a long time, and supers have honestly gotten pretty stale to me. However, being able to lazer beam enemies on the stormcaller is going to stay fun for a very long time. I think these added supers are going too feel as good if not better than adding the subclasses in the Taken King because of how diverse they are. You are in for a treat. Bungie wants to fix this game more than we want it fixed: It was very obvious how passionate the developers are. They want this game to improve and are working on it. It was very refreshing to see how badly they wanted feedback and advice on how to turn the ship around. Many stayed after hours to discuss with us, or pulled us away for a couple extra minutes between meetings so we could get into more detail. We felt heard, and I think they are making great progress.

How can one man mess up so bad? Posted: 12 Jun 2018 09:11 AM PDT Bruh this man don't know what he did. I didn't trust this bitch when I saw him and this guy think he gonna run it on Cayde & get away with it?! Does he not realize we personally were given the duty of executing a Deity and we saw that mutha through?! It's over. You fucked up. Let me hear anything about you and your kin and y'all getting rolled on. I didn't like Uldickhead when I first saw him but I put up with him and even helped out his crew when they needed the guns. Hell, his fine ass sister asked me for help and didn't send out her soft ass brother when she needed someone to rough up Skolas. Does this man not realize how many consecutive Gs have received Ls just fucking cause?! I fought Oryx 1v1 after he bodied y'all and then picked 5 of my closest homeboys to ride on this fool WHEN HE THOUGHT HE WAS SAFE! Then you fuck with Cayde?! Do you not realize how many homie points this man had acquired? He could hit me up at 4 AM, in the best sleep of my life, asking for a ride to the airport and be lucky I didn't tell his ass "Call a uber". His points didn't go away with his death bruh. We gonna bury my man with his shades then we coming for you. Watch your back. EVERYWHERE! If you in the bathroom, don't think a man won't pop outta the toilet to rain judgement on your ass! I rolled out thehastag #4mymanuldren after we iced the King outta respect cause I thought you were dead but clearly you want me to make it official. Marking it on my calender, September. Your ass is done, kid. [link] [comments] |
Be careful what you wish for... Posted: 12 Jun 2018 04:57 AM PDT Community: We need harder activities! Bungie: EP. Community: Jesus.
Community: We need more grind. Bungie: New Faction Rally. Community: If I see another PE I'll kill myself.
SPOILER ALERT Community: We need darker story! Bungie: Kills Cayde. Community: ... I.. erm...
EDIT: Not a complaint btw! GG Bungie. 😊 Community: Change the damn weapon slots! Bungie: 3 Shotguns. Community: Yeah baby! [link] [comments] |
I just want to thank Bungie for not adding a battle royale game mode. Posted: 12 Jun 2018 10:13 AM PDT Seriously, it feels like every other major game (even battlefield, for the traveler's sake) is jumping on this bandwagon before it crashes. [link] [comments] |
GG's to Bungie. They made us hate someone more than Rahool and Tess in a 1 minute video Posted: 12 Jun 2018 01:18 AM PDT |
Let's remember the original dead Guardian Posted: 12 Jun 2018 05:14 AM PDT He didn't even get a team to recover the remains. If the hive are anything like us, his armor is now an exclusive exotic set that might drop whenever another Guardian wakes the hive. Bungie better let us do better for Cayde than we did for this poor bastard. Just sayin. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Jun 2018 11:12 AM PDT Good one, Bungie... Side note: Also, looks like the Striker's Death from Above isn't tied to the super. You can just DFA using your melee ability apparently. [link] [comments] |
Destiny 2: Forsaken - E3 Story Reveal Trailer Posted: 11 Jun 2018 06:31 PM PDT |
[Spoiler] After that video. I’m going to need a certain item added to the game. Posted: 11 Jun 2018 11:08 PM PDT If you learn nothing else, learn this: When a Hunter takes up the cloak of a dead comrade, this is a vow. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 12 Jun 2018 05:13 AM PDT A 270 Nightfall does not require me to strategise and synergise with two other Guardians, all I need is their presence. Guided Games is nigh on useless in its current state, and needs an updated beta or a revamped full release, and Forsaken is the time to do it. Maybe add in a cool emblem or shader, or maybe a really cool gun with a low drop rate for completed GGs. [link] [comments] |
[Spoiler] Clarifications on Exo Guardian Death and Reboots Posted: 12 Jun 2018 07:20 AM PDT Good afternoon Guardians. The past day or so has shown that some clarifications need to be made about exactly what a reboot is, why some Exo's have a number following their name, and the function of Light and how it relates or doesn't relate to the reboots Exo's have to have to function properly. I'll start with Light. Light works for an Exo the same way it works for Human and Awoken Guardians. Using Light, a Guardian can bring themselves back from death providing their Ghost is still around to do so. If your Ghost is destroyed, and then you are killed, there is no coming back. The same is true the other way around, if you are killed and your Ghost destroyed before it can revive you, you are dead permanently. The legendary Warlock Felwinter proved this in killing a Risen. Light allows the Exo Guardian to be brought back from death in the same state they were when they died. This is important. It does not replace the reboot function. What is the reboot function for Exo? The Exo mind is a Human mind. The Human mind is linked to a Human body, and to remove it from that Human body and put it into an Exo body puts a great deal of stress on the psyche of that mind. It can never fully settle down in that new body, because it is not the body it was born in. Clovis Bray decided that a reboot every now and then relieves this pressure. An Exo can be safely rebooted 20 or so times before problems were expected to occur, and Clovis Bray were most likely hopeful a solution to this problem could be found before the first Exo even got close to 20. Then the collapse happened, and that research stopped. All Exo's, with and without Light, currently active have this issue. They still need to be rebooted to keep themselves effectively sane and without any problems. However, so much time has passed that the issues Clovis Bray feared are starting to come to pass, a perfect example of this is Banshee who has been rebooted so many times his memory has become incredibly damaged. Once a reboot has taken place, a new number follows that Exo's name. Cayde has been rebooted 6 times, Banshee 44 times, etc. Rebooting does not bring the Exo back to life if destroyed. Only Light can perform that function. People seem to think this works like regeneration in Dr Who for some reason. Rebooting refreshes the mind, not the body. Lore-wise, there is nothing to suggest a particular Guardian can be brought back. His Ghost was destroyed, and then he was too. History tells us that is the end of the matter. This is not to say that at some point, a solution could be found to remedy this, but current information is what we have and unfortunately, Cayde-6, Hunter Vanguard, has died at the hands of Prince Uldren. EDIT: This post is not to speculate on what might be. This is to discuss what is currently known to be true. The Traveler being awake may well play an important part in this turn of events. It may also mean nothing. This is to educate on what is currently known, not what we may or may not want to be true. [link] [comments] |

If Bungie freezes or removes my Y1 gear, this will be the 4th time I am starting from scratch in a Destiny game... this time feels different though. I have never seen my Destiny friends list so sparse as I had from this past Nov - May the entire time I have been playing Destiny. People are getting excited for Forsaken; that's great news... but I don't think it'd be right for me to be starting on a level playing field as those who bailed on D2 when they fire the game back up again. I was a zombie at work for a week while grinding for my DFA, I destroyed my KDA slap-boxing during a gun fight (Warlock, bruh) for the S2 IB chest ornament, I felt the burn as I had to open 183 Gunsmith packages to finally get my Manannan SR4... the list goes on. These are things my Guardian has that Guardians who left D2 do not have. Things they will not be able to get because they weren't around for it, and I think that is fair... but I did stick around for it and I did earn it so don't lock me out of it as well. Shouldn't the Guardians who kept with D2 during the "hard times" be rewarded by Bungie for their loyalty rather than stacked up and shuffled in with all the people who left? I am not going to sit here and say I absolutely won't get Forsaken if my gear doesn't pull forward - but I will say this is the first time I have not immediately pre-ordered a Destiny expansion while I wait to hear how Bungie is going to handle gear. If the gear in Forsaken is just better and my current items end up in the vault as they are replaced by new stuff over time, I am fine with and HOPE for that... but don't force my decision, and certainly don't make me feel like all the time I put in to Y1 while taking jabs from people just for still playing a "dead" game didn't matter. EDIT: I'd like to think this was released just now because of me... in fact, I'm going to say that it was: https://www.gameinformer.com/e3-2018/2018/06/12/year-one-destiny-2-gear-carrying-forward-into-forsaken [link] [comments] |
[spoiler] We'll protect you, Redacted Posted: 12 Jun 2018 11:35 AM PDT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WigaYh9ApO0 It's alright guys, we still have time.... At all costs, Mr President. EDIT - No one wants to hear your petty negative rants about eververse and iron banner this has nothing to do with either, take it elsewhere [link] [comments] |
Old Death from Above is now a melee ability Posted: 12 Jun 2018 09:34 AM PDT Judging by all of the new footage. Skullfort is gonna be ridiculous with this 1:25 for the new melee ability (Old death from above) 4:25 for the new super ability [link] [comments] |
You Allow Light 100 Guardians To Queue For Heroics When They Can't Do Damage Posted: 12 Jun 2018 07:18 AM PDT Why? Also why do you allow a handicap of 75 to be available when you can't do damage on 75 handicap nightfalls? [link] [comments] |
Dead Orbit won the Faction Rally! Posted: 12 Jun 2018 10:16 AM PDT ~18 Minutes after Reset the Milestone finally appeared, go grab your weapons!I guess no real surprise here. The winning weapon is the Basilisk Shotgun, though I guess most got the real reward already at lvl50 :P The Weapon is MW'd though, so grab it at least for the cores! That makes DO have two fins, NM four, FWC zero. But fear not, I have a feeling that FWC will win the next one.. Quick note: You can keep grinding the ornaments for the faction you're pledged to this week - but since renown is gone now, you can only complete those that don't require renown stuff. Also, don't forget to turn in your remaining tokens before they disappear next rally! [link] [comments] |
OMG the dude with that story theory for the Forsaken was right! Posted: 11 Jun 2018 06:31 PM PDT |
[Spoiler] Obtaining Ace of Spades in Forsaken Better Be Very Special Posted: 11 Jun 2018 08:40 PM PDT It better not be an engram. It better not be a gift from Xur. There better be only one way to obtain Ace of Spades in Forsaken: and that is to pry it from Uldren's cold, dead hands. I don't care if it's a Raid or Story, it better come from that specific way only. As an aside, Cayde's Exotic Stash from Pre Ordering is his final parting gift to us.... Also, SAVE YOUR CAYDE's odds and ends trinkets. They will be our new mementoes. [link] [comments] |
New Xol Transmat effect (from nightfall) Posted: 12 Jun 2018 11:01 AM PDT Got this drop from the nightfall, I assume this isn't the nightfall exclusive reward. https://imgur.com/a/TI3lBs0 Edit: Video showcase - https://youtu.be/Ij8qn8yDBNw [link] [comments] |
[Spoiler] One last picture with my boy. Posted: 12 Jun 2018 03:13 AM PDT |
Posted: 11 Jun 2018 11:15 PM PDT Only difference is that it takes longer to dismantle the exotic. Where is the sense of progression? [link] [comments] |
