| Josh Hamrick on Twitter: I’m sorry we let you down. We’re working our asses off to turn it around and bring the hobby back though. I feel like the last few updates have really started to change that and I believe the future is bright. I hope you join us. Posted: 08 May 2018 12:18 AM PDT |

| Warmind is written by an entirely different team to Destiny 2's campaign and CoO. Posted: 08 May 2018 04:45 AM PDT Thought this was interesting and worth noting; Vicarious Visions haven't just given Bungie a hand delivering Warmind from a technical/production perspective, but their Narrative Designer has been writing Warmind's story for the last year. We'll see for sure in six hours, but this should mean a pretty different tone from Destiny 2's relentless onslaught of humour and Curse of Osiris' general... dullness. Really looking forward to seeing what they deliver, it'll be fun to see what a team other than Bungie do with Destiny. submitted by /u/henrybddf [link] [comments] |

| Bungie don't wait until December, give us a 6 v 6 playlist now Posted: 08 May 2018 08:01 AM PDT We tested your Iron Banner 6 vs 6, and we love it. As a PVP player i can say that i am satisfied with the results of 6 vs 6. With the release of Warmind, i think it's time for you to consider a permanent 6 vs 6 playlist. We tested 4 vs 4 enough to know it doesn't work, and we tested 6 vs 6 enough to know that it works. We care about your game as much as you do(?), and i think the community is ready for a 6 vs 6 playlist. Don't wait till the next DLC, it may be too late. When the Iron Banner playlist is up, all i see are returning crucible friends returning to the game, and it's not because it's Iron Banner, but because it's 6 vs 6, and we love Crucible 6 vs 6 so much! EDIT: Sorry guys, it's September, not December. submitted by /u/rednecksarecool [link] [comments] |
| Bungie Plz Addition: revert back to 2 hit kill melees in PvP Posted: 08 May 2018 12:12 AM PDT Hello Guardians, This change has been added to Bungie Plz. Going forward, all posts suggesting this change will be removed and redirected to this Megathread. Submitted by: /u/kiki_strumm3r, /u/jhairehmyah Date approved: 2018-05-07 Why it Should be added: Because with everything else in the game being buffed, three hit melee seems incredibly out of place. There was nothing wrong with the way it was in D1 and now it feels like you're just tickling people. Examples given: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Criteria Used: "...3 examples (with links) of recent submissions (with at least 1 being over 5 days old), that have been well received (hundreds of upvotes on the front page of the sub - ex. 300+ upvotes)." submitted by /u/DTG_Bot [link] [comments] |

| Anyone having permission issues for the Warmind DLC? [Xbox] Posted: 08 May 2018 11:45 AM PDT Our main Xbox is set as my account's home device. Previously, that has allowed everyone else in the house to use all the games and DLC I buy. This was true for The Division, BF1, SW BF2, the original Destiny and it's expansions, and was true for D2 and CoO. My son was able to log into his account on my machine and access CoO. Warmind, however, appears to be an entirely different beast. It shows up on mine, but when we switch to his account, it says he doesn't have it. What gives? Is this launch day jitters or has Tess expanded her evil money-grubbing ways once more? [edit] Judging from the comments, it looks like Bungie killed Game Sharing on Xbox AND PS4.

[edit 3] Looks like this issue has obtained priority status: @Bungie Help submitted by /u/RemyBohannon [link] [comments] |
| Secretly we all want Warmind to be the start of something good. Posted: 08 May 2018 07:08 AM PDT i don't really post alot - however i dont think im alone in thinking that in just short of 4 hours time, we see something that could be the spark that could turn this game around. anyone else feel the same ? submitted by /u/chunkeh5 [link] [comments] |
| 19 Hours. 151K Clan XP. 0 Hope. The Story of Two Very Determined People and a Clan at Rank 4. Posted: 08 May 2018 08:44 AM PDT So it was the last week of Season 2. My clan, Colombian Roastmasters, was sitting at Rank 4. I noticed something odd about the weekly Clan XP, before this I had reserved myself to only getting to Rank 5 and not getting the Clan Staff for Season 2, but this week, I noticed there was no cap. There was not a cap on the website either. The weekly XP was labelled as being (NUMBER)/0. So that got me thinking. Could I get my clan from rank 4 to rank 6, by myself? So my quest began and the answer became apparent. Alone, no. With another person yes. So my girlfriend decided to be an insane completionist as well. This process (with some help from actual clanmates playing a bit as well), took about 18 hours over the past two days. These were our steps: Create a new character as it circumvents the 5K Clan XP Cap. Get to 5K Clan XP on that character. Delete. Repeat. I have about 9 hours of it recorded on stream and the rest of it is lost to time. Warning: I swear like a sailor. (nothing awful but just saying) Stream Video 1 Stream Video 2 Highlights: Begins The Big Oof But how The End http://puu.sh/Aif83/82008559e3.jpg https://puu.sh/Aifeu/32ca8882a4.jpg I would like to thank Bungie for making a game I can actually play this much and still enjoy myself as well as my girlfriend, Breana, who spent god knows how much time alongside me grinding. If the mods have a problem with this and consider self-promotion, that's fine but I wanted to have this go out before my bones explode from grinding to death. Stay in school kids. Don't do drugs. submitted by /u/KingNuclearo [link] [comments] |

| I think the general consensus is that 6v6 iron banner was a good change. Can we try the old 3v3 trials and elimination next please Posted: 07 May 2018 11:44 PM PDT The current mode is nowhere near as intense and is honestly a mess. Could go a long way to raising the trial's population. Obviously, it wouldn't be as good or strategic as D1 till we get the changes to the weapon system. But what is there to lose. submitted by /u/midkelts [link] [comments] |

| Bungie Plz Addition: Allow campaign missions to be replayed Posted: 08 May 2018 12:02 AM PDT Hello Guardians, This change has been added to Bungie Plz. Going forward, all posts suggesting this change will be removed and redirected to this Megathread. To clarify, this is in regards to repayable Campaign missions outside of Ikoras Meditations Submitted by: /u/screaming_tofu Date approved: 2018-05-07 Why it Should be added: Destiny is a game defined by it's replayability, either in the chase for loot, glory or fun. Wouldn't it make sense then to be able to play through the campaign to experience all the work that went into those encounters, as was the case for the first game? The opening siege on the tower and the epic struggle on the almighty are some of the best set pieces in the PvE experience and they are lost after a single run. I know Ikora allows you to replay select missions, but it's a fairly small selection. Examples given: 1, 2, 3 Criteria Used: "...3 examples (with links) of recent submissions (with at least 1 being over 5 days old), that have been well received (hundreds of upvotes on the front page of the sub - ex. 300+ upvotes)." submitted by /u/DTG_Bot [link] [comments] |

Kill all 3 shriekers to trigger the heroic version. Although you might want to stay out of the transmat circle while doing so, in case you complete the normal version before killing all 3. submitted by /u/nerddigmouse [link] [comments] |

Destiny 2 Hotfix 1.2.0.1 will be available to download and install | Patch Note Preview Released in last weeks This Week at Bungie, here's what we know so far on the upcoming Patch As a short-term solution, Vault space has been increased from 200 to 300 items. Multi-emote is here! You now can configure all four emote options with player-selected emotes. The entire emote collection is now always available to you for convenient swapping. Items in the emote collection have been removed from the Vault, as it's no longer needed. Guided Games will now feature a Leviathan Guide emblem that tracks the number of raid encounters and raids a player has completed as a Guide. This emblem rewards a unique aura for 14 days after a player completes a raid as a Guide. Once a week while the aura is active, guiding a raid to completion grants one Bright Engram. A new inventory category has been created that will contain pursuit tracking items, such as those for Exotic quests. Items in the Pursuits category are specific to each character and not shared across the account. In-game audio settings (sliders between 1 and 10) were added or revised: - SFX Volume
- Dialogue/Cinematics Volume
- Music Volume
- Chat Volume
Weekly lockouts for raid and raid lair rewards are now class-based. Players running multiple characters of the same class will receive rewards only the first time they run the raid or raid lair in a given week. Fixed an issue with collections where event emblems would not show up unless players owned Curse of Osiris. Fixed an issue where players would encounter a black screen upon loading into the Tower. Fixed an issue where Cayde was offering only one treasure map for Mercury. The full suite of patch notes will be published on May 8 shortly before Warmind becomes available. We're currently targeting a 10 AM release, but stay tuned to @Bungie for announcements. Eyes up, Guardians. Mars awaits submitted by /u/DTG_Bot [link] [comments] |
