Updated title screen to reflect Forsaken launch

#

YEEEEESSS

#

New Music hype

light cairn
#

woah what, the escapees will show up in strikes and lost sectors too

iron inlet
#

I wonder if it'll divert the strike

#

like mid-way through Inverted Spire

light cairn
#

the other day i got a bazillion fallen in my garden world strike

iron inlet
#

Ghost: "Guardian wait! I'm tracking a Prison of Elders escapee, he's nearby! We have to eliminate him before we continue with the strike mission."

light cairn
#

pls no

iron inlet
#

Wouldn't be surprised

light cairn
#

not unless it takes the place of another objective

iron inlet
#

I'm also ready for back and forth banter in Forsaken knowing we found our voice again

light cairn
#

we have to make the jokes now

brisk merlin
#

yay

iron inlet
#

Waitr

#

        Presell is in the Reef location
        The โ€œLeviathanโ€ raid and raid lairs have been moved to Nessus```

brisk merlin

light cairn
#

iunno

My Battle.net keeps telling me that my game is already running so I can't update

brisk merlin
#

it was a while ago

iron inlet
#

brisk merlin
#

close abttlenet over task manager

light cairn
#

just restart bnet

iron inlet
#

I did like four times

#

light cairn
#

iron inlet
#

PC reboot takes like 5 seconds though

#

SSHD is great

light cairn
#

yee

#

good, current milestones are being renamed to challenges, which is really what they are

#

so actual milestones are implemented

#

much better

#

Flashpoint progress has been expanded to include Lost Sectors and Heroic adventures

#

#

ohhhh

iron inlet
#

yeah and flashpoints are twice a week now

#

which is sweet

light cairn
#

is Presell for the raid? since it's said in the same thing as moving leviathan

iron inlet
#

Could be the raid yeah

#

Checking for updates boiz

light cairn
#

i can't wait for this weird ass week of half implemented features

iron inlet
#

same

#

Why is checking for the update taking 224872018285 years

light cairn
#

what if forsaken title screen is no music

#

because i'm stealing all the bandwidth

iron inlet
#

Forsaken title screen better be black

#

back to D1

light cairn
#

wait shit, is my music set to on?

#

oh no

#

i hope so

uncut bramble
#

Sounds like Iโ€™m gonna have to boot destiny up again lol

iron inlet
#

matthewwww

uncut bramble
#

Howdy!

light cairn
#

โ—

uncut bramble
#

So new update huh? I'd seen rumblings of it on reddit but I thought it was just for those taking the DLC

light cairn
#

all the QOL changes are for everyone

uncut bramble
#

Nice! Might be worth booting up again for a bit. I haven't played since like Feb. Didn't get the last DLC either

light cairn
#

this update is like 37gb so good luck

uncut bramble
#

Yeesh

iron inlet
#

We can be Forsaken-less together ๐Ÿ˜ญ ๐Ÿ˜‚

light cairn
#

even more so if you didn't download warmind

iron inlet
#

B.NET RECOGNIZE THE UPDATE GOOD LORD

uncut bramble
#

Haha, there's no way I can pick up Forsaken. Not with Spiderman and Tomb Raider this month

iron inlet
#

it's still checking for updates

#

still

light cairn
#

rip

uncut bramble
#

Update is out on PS4?

iron inlet
#

Prob

#

it's only 20gb on PS4 iirc

light cairn
#

oh nice

uncut bramble
#

Typically I think I uninstalled a few weeks back to replay FarCry ๐Ÿ˜ฉ lol

iron inlet
#

There we go, finally

#

and now it's downloading

#

at a record rate of 650KB/s

uncut bramble
#

ouch

light cairn
#

don't worry, it'll be another 37gb when forsaken comes out! /s

iron inlet
#

Yeah but I won't need to download it ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

light cairn
#

i'm pretty sure everyone downloads it

uncut bramble
#

rip! I would definitely get the dlc's if I had more time to dedicate to the raids

light cairn
#

like my friend bought the other two dlcs and didn't need to download anything else

iron inlet
#

Don't worry Matt, skip doesn't raid either ๐Ÿ˜‰

uncut bramble
#

can confirm I uninstalled it

light cairn
#

wtf did you just say about me aeyes

iron inlet
#

Skip I'll give you brownie points if you accept and complete this challenge

light cairn
#

?

iron inlet
#

Beat my fastest normal leviathan time ๐Ÿ˜

brisk merlin
#

ok

#

what's the time

light cairn
#

that would imply i could find a good raid team

uncut bramble
#

i read that challenge as : "needs friends"

#

for me at least haha

#

is this 1.23?

iron inlet
#

24m 55s

brisk merlin
#

how?

iron inlet
#

this is 2.0.0 Matthew

brisk merlin
#

did you glitch it?

iron inlet
#

No Kev, we're just speedy

brisk merlin
#

where you go through the map

uncut bramble
iron inlet
#

Underbelly is fast as fuck

uncut bramble
#

damn this to DL 1.43 lol

brisk merlin
#

how can you do it so quick lmao

iron inlet
#

Lots of raids

#

lots and lots

#

Rockz has done 500 Leviathans

#

Tonu has done 1000 raids total

light cairn
#

nuts

brisk merlin
#

wtf

iron inlet
#

They're good people, I ended up joining their clan

#

They're PS4 main though ๐Ÿ’”

uncut bramble
#

masterrace

#

cool so im gonna check out that update in 15 hours

#

nice

iron inlet
#

Oh hey 1.04mb/s!

#

FeelsGoodMan

brisk merlin
#

9 hours if my internet was best

#

but its at half

iron inlet
#

I won't check it out tonight anyway

#

because maintenance ends at like 10:30pm

uncut bramble
#

if psn actually took advantage of my internet speeds I'd get it in no time at all. I've got 250mbps download

brisk merlin
#

just 10pm

iron inlet
#

IF it doesn't get extended

uncut bramble
#

oof maintainence ftoo

iron inlet
#

Knowing Bungie it'll get extended until like 2am

#

and I was up that late yesterday grinding comp ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

#

Grinded comp for 6 whole hours yesterday

#

ended up moving up by like, 20 points, maybe

light cairn
#

you know the season doesn't end until forsaken drops, right?

iron inlet
#

I know

#

but I'm not even close to Redrix

light cairn
#

no one is

iron inlet
#

and now the vault is offline until Forsaken

#

and the meta is about to go to shit ๐Ÿ˜‚

#

It's gonna be

uncut bramble
#

I remember when I knew what d2 stuff was. Who the hell is redrix lol

iron inlet
#

150 RPM HC
Orewing's Maul
Tractor Cannon

#

Redrix's Claymore is the competitive reward weapon for S3

#

you need to get 2100 points to get it

uncut bramble
#

ohhh gotcha

#

literally so much has changed since feb - it's so good to see

#

I just kind of wish I'd stayed on top of it

#

i think both my characters are max PL up to CoO

iron inlet
#

It's a completely dfferent game from february

brisk merlin
#

give claymore

iron inlet
#

honestly it's like, insane

light cairn
#

the go fast update is when things started getting good again

iron inlet
#

Kev just do the Broadsword quest in S4

#

because that's gonna suck

#

but be less difficult

#

just more time consuming

light cairn
#

comp rank in s4 also won't ever go down fortunately

brisk merlin
#

...a

iron inlet
#

One of the steps needs you to have reset your valor rank FIVE TIMES in S4 ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

uncut bramble
#

I guess forsaken will attract new players so I'll still be ahead in some respect I guess.
Did I read that Prison of Elders is back too?

iron inlet
#

Yeah but S4 isn't Redrix's Claymore anymore

#

it's gonna be Luna's Howl

#

yes Matthew ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

uncut bramble
#

I never really played D1 but I did play Prison of Elders and fucking loved it

light cairn
#

i mean, it's not back like that

#

just as a story location

iron inlet
#

No I mean

#

it is

uncut bramble
#

weh

iron inlet
#

It's back like that

#

the armour sets are there and everything

brisk merlin
#

prison of elders armor is there

#

hmmm

light cairn
#

not the mode though (is the point i'm getting at)

iron inlet
#

Someone datamined it from the API ๐Ÿ˜

brisk merlin
#

maybe in forsaken patch notes lmao

#

it was shown in the trailers too nyx

iron inlet
#

I'm pretty sure the mode is coming back tbh

light cairn
#

PoE doesn't really make sense with the story anymore

#

maybe a variant though

iron inlet
#

I bet the Spider will own it

light cairn
#

ooo

brisk merlin
#

gambit is PoE lmao

iron inlet
#

Speaking of the Spider is hot tbh

#

let's be honest

brisk merlin
#

I SAID THAT TOO

#

HE THICC

light cairn
#

yeah i think Gambit is the only straight up new mode

iron inlet
#

He's like Calus but better ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

brisk merlin
#

calus was a thOT

iron inlet
#

Oh no Skip there's a new PvP mode too iirc

#

other than Gambit

#

I think it's a secret though?

brisk merlin
#

yea

light cairn
#

huh?

brisk merlin
#

like a vault break

uncut bramble
#

tf is gambit. I don't really play PvP

light cairn
#

gambit is PvPvE

brisk merlin
#

you have to break into a vault i think

iron inlet
#

Because I remember they said "Gambit is NOT the secret mode that players played at the summit."

uncut bramble
#

PvPvE sounds cool...

iron inlet
#

Yeah it's like

uncut bramble
#

And it's nice to type

iron inlet
#

2 teams of 3(4?) are fighting Taken

brisk merlin
#

2

light cairn
#

basically it's two pve teams playing against each other, but on occasion you can invade the other team (one person)

iron inlet
#

or other enmies

light cairn
#

two teams of 4

uncut bramble
#

ohh cool

iron inlet
#

yeah 2 teams of 4

#

Let me find a link

light cairn
#

there's a free preview this saturday

#

if you can download by then

iron inlet
brisk merlin
#

everyone gets to play gambit on the 1st

iron inlet
#

ye boi

#

even if you don't have Forsaken

#

which is nice

brisk merlin
#

mhm

uncut bramble
#

ohh cool

brisk merlin
#

DEATH HEALS PRIMEVAL

uncut bramble
#

god that gameplay alone reminds me of how much i miss D2

#

I just got burnt out on it

light cairn
#

the gunplay is still second to none

brisk merlin
#

wow I love destinys gunplay

uncut bramble
#

yeah the gunplay is โค and the visuals too

brisk merlin
#

I liked destiny 1s artstyle things more

#

ike... they changed it

uncut bramble
#

I bought D1 full collection and played through the story. it was really great and definitely felt like a "sequel"

#

At the time

#

(end of last year)

iron inlet
#

Destiny has the best gunplay of any FPS I've ever played

#

like it's not even a contest

#

Nothing comes close to Destiny's gunplay for me

brisk merlin
#

CS:GO lmao

#

lmao

light cairn
iron inlet
#

HAH

#

funny

#

also yes

#

"You won't have to.... Uldren Sov... is mine "

#

that gave me shivers

light cairn
#

i love how the "how's your sister" line is actually really relevant and not just completely dumb

iron inlet
#

I love it because it's absolutely intended to be read as

#

"Fuck you."

#

being his last words

#

but obviously T-Rated game so they want to stay away from hard swears

uncut bramble
#

Danke Skip โค

brisk merlin
#

how's your sister
"she's fine, and you?"

uncut bramble
#

And we got a voice again

#

At least they're listning

iron inlet
#

also Cayde banged Mara Sov

light cairn
#

"Don't worry i can hallucinate her at will now"

brisk merlin
#

destiny but its in canadian

iron inlet
#

I'm 90% sure that's canon in the lore somewhere

#

I'm almost completely sure there is lore that implies Mara Sov and Cayde having a romantic relationship

light cairn
#

relationshi[p

brisk merlin
#

shi[

iron inlet
#

kek

light cairn
#

finna smash those barons to pieces

iron inlet
#

I love that I'm doing with my real life posessions what I do in Destiny

light cairn
#

sharding them?

iron inlet
#

I'm just selling things I sort of don't need to afford things I also don't need but want at the time

brisk merlin
#

I'm ready to hear that uldrens alt name is Ace

light cairn
#

wat

#

no

iron inlet
#

See I like the Theory

#

but Ace would be Human

brisk merlin
#

no

#

nonnono

light cairn
#

ace is loooooooooooong dead

iron inlet
#

and also not a Guardian, he's gonna be long dead

brisk merlin
#

how do you know

iron inlet
#

Cayde was Human

light cairn
#

because ace was his pet guinea pig

iron inlet
#

before he was an Exo

brisk merlin
#

awoken were human

iron inlet
#

what no Ace was his son

#

๐Ÿ˜‚

light cairn
#

same thing

iron inlet
#

I mean Kev I get what you mean

brisk merlin
iron inlet
#

but then that would make Mara Sov Cayde's Daughter

brisk merlin
#

AAAAAAAA

#

LOOK

iron inlet
#

and given Cayde and Mara had a relationship that'd be weird

#

oh does it do the thing I said it did

#

did I call it

#

I CALLED IT

#

IT GETS CORRUPTED WHITE TO DARK

#

SUCK MY NODULE REDDIT

brisk merlin
#

(it was obvious kindaaaaa)

iron inlet
#

(it was but Reddit told me I was dumb because Reddit)

brisk merlin
#

FUCK

#

ME

#

LMG

#

THERES AN LMG

#

I think thunderlord is coming back

#

theres a new roadmap coming soon too

light cairn

VIDOOOOOOOOOOC

#

AAAAAAAAAAAAA THE DIRECTOR

light cairn
#

oh my GOOOOOOOOOOOD

#

i'm so PUMPED

winter yew
#

Oh shit that forsaken trailer

#

Uldren was being consumed by the darkness hot damn

uncut bramble
#

PS4 Icon updated to "forsaken" just to remind me I don't have the dlc lol

light cairn
#

so fast, dang

uncut bramble
#

yeah when I put my PS4 into rest mode it did its thing

light cairn
#

jeeeez

uncut bramble
light cairn
#

nice!

uncut bramble
#

it is but it's false advertising

#

haha

brisk merlin

๐Ÿ‘€

#

brisk merlin
#

x

rigid haven
#

Who could even get 8 people together?

brisk merlin
#

ha

austere lance
#

Implying 8 people play the game xD

brisk merlin
#

...

light cairn
#

people trying to run escalation protocol that's who

brisk merlin
#

^

#

thats 9 people thankyouverymuch

#

Eris, get your rock off my tombstone.

light cairn
#

o o f

iron inlet
#

8 people together is easy

#

that's just 2 sets of people running crucible before it went back to 6v6

#

But yes that's definitely an 8-man fireteam

#

I assume it's for the new "Blind Well" activity

#

@brisk merlin @light cairn if you didn't already believe Uldren's being dictated by an Ahamkara

#

he's wearing "Sealed Ahamkara Grasps" when he burns down the Queen's Throne

brisk merlin
#

thats a theory

#

he wished for mara to live

#

the price was him killing cayde and any other guardians

light cairn
#

oof

iron inlet
#

I could share some Datamined spoiler-ish stuff if you want

#

I dug out some interesting stuff from the API when Ginsor mentioned there was a security hole

brisk merlin
#

wow did you know that the spider has a currency known as "ghost fragments"?

iron inlet
#

Yep! Dead Ghost Collectibles are coming back

austere lance
#

Cayde not being voiced by Nathan Fillion ๐Ÿ˜ด

iron inlet
#

Ghost Fragments come from those which we trade to the Spider

#

Cayde has literally like 10 voice lines

#

before he dies

#

Nathan is busy doing other shit, Nolan stepped in and did a great job all things considered

uncut bramble
austere lance
#

Anthem isn't even out yet and it looks better than D2, lol. Having actual characters in a game>whatever tf Destiny does with their characters

iron inlet
#

Hah that's funny

uncut bramble
#

the destiny characters are actually really well fleshed out with lore

iron inlet
#

Anthem also isn't a destiny-type game

#

it's more comparable to Warframe

uncut bramble
#

That sounds like a "read it on reddit so it must be true" kind of comment to make

iron inlet
#

You right

#

People who say Destiny doesn't have fleshed out characters like

#

Read the entire Bray Family

#

Oryx, Savathun, Xivu Arath

#

Mara Sov

#

Cayde-6

#

Rezyl Azzir/Dredgen Yor

#

Osiris

#

Toland

#

Eris Morn

#

should I carry on?

uncut bramble
#

He knows too much

#

Kill him

#

lol

iron inlet
#

I do know too much

#

I have had the entire Books of Sorrow on my iphone as an eBook since we unlocked all the lore entries

#

I read the lore like ALLLL the time

#

Is a great place to go for it

#

oh also Chioma Esi, Maya Sundaresh, Emperor Calus, Dominus Ghaul

uncut bramble
#

I'm terrible for not reading the lore. Like, in any game

#

ever

#

lol

iron inlet
#

All 10 of the Iron Lords

#

Saint-14, Nokris, Shin Malphur, Variks, etc etc

#

The Worm Gods (There's 5 of them)

light cairn
#

i want to fight alongside Shax

iron inlet
#

The entire Vex race, the entire Fallen race, the entire Cabal race

#

how many characters did I list that were fleshed out? let me count

light cairn
#

3 /s

iron inlet
#

35

brisk merlin
#

I love the vex

#

their lore is cool and they're time traveling robots

iron inlet
#

35 Fleshed out characters and 5 Fleshed out enemy races, all with subfactions that are also fleshed out

#

so tell me again how Anthem has more in-depth characters than Destiny?

brisk merlin
#

lmao

uncut bramble
#

but not as fleshed out as Anthem. Of which we know nothing except that it's made by EA

iron inlet
#

โœ‹ ๐ŸŽค

brisk merlin
#

(thats a mic drop... I think)

uncut bramble
#

$10 DLC for 1 fleshed out character

iron inlet

Boom

also I didn't even know that was an emote haha

#

amazingly fleshed out emotes

iron inlet

Yeah there's a bunch of hilarious emotes now

brisk merlin

I wish my old emotes from xbox d2 transferred to pc

iron inlet
#

same Kev

uncut bramble
#

same

#

wait

#

i don't have an xbox

light cairn
#

at least i got popcorn emote

iron inlet
#

my favourite emote is either "Hold On." or "Luxurious Toast"

brisk merlin
#

lost so many of them

#

I NEED THAT TOAST ONE

iron inlet
#

"Hold On." is literally your Guardian texting on a phone

brisk merlin
#

SKIP

light cairn
#

i need the CHAIR EMOTE SO BAD

iron inlet
#

and it's an infinite loop

uncut bramble
#

my favourite one was the time warp one

brisk merlin

I have that

good emote

uncut bramble

i think i do - i'll know better post-maintaince lol

i should be able to spell better by then too

RIP the one character anyone cares about besides Shax

@austere lance Were you waiting for my thorough debunking of your argument to be too far up for me to say "Scroll up" to come back?

austere lance
#

Wot

#

Boi I wasnt paying attention, you went on for awhile! ๐Ÿ˜„

iron inlet
#

So I was right, good to know ๐Ÿ‘

austere lance
#

So uh, out of all those "fleshed out" characters how many are basically talking mission booths? Or boss fights that people grind repeatedly

iron inlet
#

Zero

#

โค

austere lance
#

Lol

iron inlet
#

I understand if you don't like the game, but maybe find something actually accurate to complain about rather than copypasta bullshit arguments from the /r/games circlejerk

austere lance
#

I don't use Reddit, it's ๐Ÿ˜ด

#

The only gaming social stuff I use is Discord

#

I was drawing on everything I've seen since I played the beta for D1 ๐Ÿ‘Œ

iron inlet
#

Ah so you were drawing on total inexperience based off of an unfinished demo version of the game in 2014? Good to know

austere lance
#

No, I mean I've been playing since the D1 beta. Or I was til I quit D2 in November

iron inlet
#

Clearly you didn't pay much attention to the game then ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

brisk merlin

Oh what really?

I was in a Destiny clan, wasn't too impressed by the "lore" not ever being shown and having to be discovered by looking for a bunch of dead ghosts that gave 3 sentences of info ๐Ÿ˜‚

brisk merlin
#

its up

iron inlet
#

Lots of people are in Destiny clans, doesn't mean you payed attention to the game nmspalm

brisk merlin
#

^ lmao

austere lance
#

300+ hours in D1

iron inlet
#

If you'd payed attention to the story you'd know plenty of the characters are fleshed out, far far more than Anthem

#

300 hours

#

that's hilarious

light cairn
#

let's be honest, in game time doesn't have to do with knowledge of lore

#

regardless if it's a lot or a little

iron inlet
#

No but 300 hours over 3 years of Destiny

brisk merlin
#

the tower seems so empty lmao without the solstice statue

iron inlet
#

Maybe the frames will be better now though

#

๐Ÿคž

brisk merlin
#

I didnt have problems with frames in tower lmao

light cairn
#

shush

iron inlet
#

I mean my rig is also not good

#

I get 30fps in the tower

#

compared to 60fps everywhere except the EDZ

#

because the EDZ is sad for framerate

#

too many trees, hurts my poor old GTX 960

#

and my Intel Pentium itlwLul

light cairn
#

that's your cpu not your gpu lol

iron inlet
#

Tru

light cairn
#

mine slowed down considerably right at these last few mb ๐Ÿ˜ซ

iron inlet
#

I think the entire download server for B.net slowed down

#

mine went down to 28kb/s

#

You're still typing? I can't help but feel like you're gonna be disappointed by how little your response matters to me

brisk merlin
#

oof

#

lmao

iron inlet
#

Time to get drunk to honor cayde and let this download overnight

austere lance
#

Do the characters actually count as fleshed out if in-game all they do is sit there and repeat 5 lines? If they were fleshed out they'd actually, you know, do something. I get that they have background info that people had to spend forever learning by hunting dead ghosts but seriously, 90% of the people that play the game have zero reason to care about them ๐Ÿ˜„

brisk merlin
#

huh, most games have npcs repeat dialogue when idle

#

IDK any game that has new dialogue every time

iron inlet
#

No Kev Anthem is gonna have NPCs that say new unique dialogue that matters to the lore every single time they speak whilst idle nmspalm ๐Ÿ˜‚

brisk merlin
#

lmao

#

new

iron inlet
#

16 quintillion lines of dialogue

light cairn
#

i mean, Sound isn't wrong that they pretty much do nothing in game

iron inlet
#

But they don't in like, any game

#

ever

light cairn
#

it's par for the course for the kind of game yeah

uncut bramble
#

Repetitive lines doesn't mean they aren't any less fleshed out though imo. It just means that you're now playing end-game

iron inlet
#

Every NPC is repeat idle dialogue, except in missions or in deeper lore

austere lance
#

I mean, the Bioware guys have said that there's gonna be bromances and side characters that are interesting

iron inlet
#

Okay?

brisk merlin
#

destiny isnt like... a full RPG game

light cairn
#

you're comparing apples and oranges

#

also, I'M IN BOIS

brisk merlin
#

nice

light cairn
#

heroic story missions โค

#

why are all the maps zoomed in now

brisk merlin
#

why not

light cairn
#

because now i gotta scroll a bunch more

brisk merlin
#

sounds like a you problem

light cairn
#

oh wow the tower does feel totally empty now

#

wait...i can use the vault?

brisk merlin
#

apparently

#

hmm

#

they LIED

light cairn
#

๐Ÿ‘€

#

holy shit this mass shader deletion ๐Ÿ™Œ

#

oh, so it appears you can use the vault but not collections?

austere lance
#

Anyone else hyped for Cyberpunk after watching the gameplay?

light cairn
#

Yep!

austere lance
#

I finally had time to watch it all, it looks huge!

#

I like how you can go through areas lethally/non-lethally

iron inlet
#

Skip I enjoy our NF modifiers are still on your challenge card

#

For all of those strikes you'll be wanting to switch to Arc Singe over Solar, otherwise just as good.

#

Strange terrain is the fastest

austere lance
#

Lots of ways to go through the game and multiple endings ๐Ÿ˜

#

@light cairn getting your body modified looked kinda disturbing, lol

light cairn
#

it does which is great

austere lance
#

When she got her eye modified I was like "noooooooo" ๐Ÿ˜„

#

I hope there's a ton of enhancments to get

#

That eye scanner was cool af

winter yew
iron inlet
#

@light cairn People are getting Forsaken drops

#

do the Flashpoint

light cairn
#

but...you're not supposed to ๐Ÿค”

#

bungo pls

iron inlet
#

User Coffee#9180 on the DTGCord got it to drop

#

the "Temp" is a Tangled Shore shader

light cairn
#

big bugs

primal inlet
#

Nyx

#

What

#

The

#

FUCK

iron inlet
#

Apparently people are getting the Y2 Versions of Y1 Exotics too already

#

Dog o/

light cairn
#

well i wasn't planning on playing this week

#

since i was burnt out

#

but now

primal inlet
#

don't do it

#

you can't vault anything

light cairn
#

you can

#

you can use the vault

primal inlet
#

i thought it was shut down

light cairn
#

you can take things out at least

#

and it's 500 slots

primal inlet
#

is it just that the api's borken?

brisk merlin
#

SHIT ITS LIKE BEFORE

#

HOUSE OF WOLVES

iron inlet
#

People are getting shit like this

light cairn
primal inlet
#

and this is why they roll it out a week early

iron inlet
#

So yeah, people are already getting Forsaken gear

#

so you could actually sorta start the grind now

light cairn
#

i was wondering why they were doing this staggered update thing

#

i don't want glitched weapons tho

#

i mean, i do

#

but, not if they actually break stuff

#

which they won't

jade lake
#

lol all they did was convert D2 back to D1

iron inlet
#

etc

#

@jade lake If you never have anything but bullshit criticism to say about games that other people enjoy during discussions about said games, keep out of them ๐Ÿ™Œ

#

Skip it seems like Forsaken drops are dropping from Milestones as a whole

#

not just flashpoint

light cairn
#

ah, that makes sense then

#

wait, actual milestones or challenges too?

rigid haven
#

...when does forsaken come out?

light cairn
#

since it's different now

iron inlet
#

Either I guess?

light cairn
#

one week

iron inlet
#

Next Tuesday Woop

#

Skip if you have 400 armour or weapons too, apparently you can infuse it into exotics & legendaries now

#

since the light cap was removed

jade lake
#

holy fucking shit nyx that was moreso a good statement than critscism. D1 is actually good. Its a nice step forward. Chill your shit buddy'

brisk merlin
#

nice nyx

iron inlet
#

Someone also got a Foetracer with the following additional perks

#

Kinetic weapon targeting, sidearm targeting and auto rifle targeting as well as shotgun reserves and special ammo finder! This is crazy!

brisk merlin
#

wow

iron inlet
#

So it looks like exotics are already dropping with Y2 perks

#

Ontop of the exotic perk, obviously

light cairn
#

but random rolls don't exist yet ๐Ÿค”

#

unless they lIED

iron inlet
#

no random rolls until Forsaken it would seem

light cairn
#

weird that new perks are dropping then

brisk merlin
#

I think this a HoW thing

light cairn
#

yes i just saw

iron inlet
#

It's nothing new "game-wise"

#

but it's great

#

I wonder how close my Download is

#

inb4 29GB left

#

oh shit

#

28.99GB left

light cairn
echo hill
#

When does forsaken come out?

light cairn
#

one week

echo hill
#

ahh gotcha

#

preloading or...?

iron inlet
#

Preloading yeah

echo hill
#

nice

light cairn
brisk merlin
iron inlet
#

This is amazing

light cairn
#

holy crap

echo hill
#

I think ill pick up the legendary edition when i get my pc

#

is it worth?

light cairn
#

definitely

echo hill
#

cool

iron inlet
#

Infinite shoulder death

light cairn
#

this is absolutely the best time for new people to join in

iron inlet
#

Airborne Knee of Justice returns

#

yes for sure Skip

#

It's also the best time for old players to return

light cairn
#

or for people who were still playing and never left

iron inlet
#

It's just the best time

#

for everything

#

for everyone

light cairn
#

yes

echo hill
#

I got max power when it first released but havent played any of the dlcs yet

iron inlet
#

Oh they're worth it

#

people don't like Curse of Osiris but I don't see why

#

both DLCs are great fun

echo hill
#

okay good to know

iron inlet
#

Curse of Osiris is about 3 hours first time, Warmind about 1h30m

light cairn
#

i just replayed CoO to help a friend, and the amount of times you have to go through the infinite forest is dumb

#

and go to other random places too

iron inlet
#

Skip I was doing that today when you messaged me

echo hill
#

cool

iron inlet
#

I got through Curse in 1h30m

#

I was at Xol before I got kicked from the servers

#

trying to finish my Titan lol

light cairn
#

rip

iron inlet
#

is direct shader purchase available yet at all?

light cairn
#

no, that's with collections

iron inlet
#

Ahhh fair

#

I'm ready to have infinite Chatterwhite

#

or "Honors of the Nine" rather

#

but it's Chatterwhite to me

light cairn
#

shaders were catalogued like all the other collection stuff, right?

iron inlet
#

I believe so

#

Eververse is the only exception iirc

#

because Eververse was tracked from launch

light cairn
#

hmm

iron inlet
#

whereas everything else was from when Warmind launched

light cairn
#

i think i'll still keep my shaders til i know they're safe ๐Ÿ˜›

iron inlet
#

Can't wait until I wake up in 12 hours from now

#

and my download is still only half done

light cairn
#

honestly all the cool stuff is in next weeks update

iron inlet
#

I just wanna play though ๐Ÿ˜‚

#

Like I'm not actually bothered about 2.0.0 I just want to finish my Titan lol

light cairn
#

ah

iron inlet
#

So I just played a new strike in the new strike playlist and a red bar enemy dropped 377 light STOMPEE-5s with random rolls on it:

light cairn
#

ooo

iron inlet
#

A red-bar enemy

#

just dropped an exotic for the guy

#

that's crazy

uncut bramble
#

#

So random rolls are back?

light cairn
#

#

and better than ever with masterworks and stuff

uncut bramble
#

Ohh nice

light cairn
#

plus whatever the "leveling" thing they've been talking about is

uncut bramble
#

Thatโ€™s exciting

iron inlet
#

Apparently every class has a Cayde cloak class item in the API

#

can't confirm yet

#

will have to dig further

light cairn

Queenbreaker's Bow was renamed

brisk merlin
#

#

brisk merlin
#

iron inlet
#

Weirdly according to DestinySets

iron inlet
#

That's it in terms of new exotic weapons

#
Shards of Galanor (Gauntlets)

light cairn

brisk merlin
iron inlet

Contraverse Hold (Gauntlets)

This is the Warlock armor

brisk merlin
#

aresnic bite 4b

#

hm

#

that a legendary that can have an ornament

iron inlet
#

Now that's pretty much it

#

for what I can find that's anything worthwhile

brisk merlin
#

ascendant challenges?

iron inlet
#

Wait

#

I found more

brisk merlin
#

I like that they used that quote from d1

iron inlet
#

Perk names but no perk descriptions for the new exotics

#

"Riven's Curse"

#

While in the Dreaming City, you take more damage from all sources.

brisk merlin
#

warlock bond?

iron inlet
#

Yeah there's one for each class

brisk merlin
#

why do I have a sword from forsaken

iron inlet
#

It's glitchy

#

found a new exotic sparrow

#

no name

#

or picture

brisk merlin
#

iron inlet
#

Only that it's a Sparrow

#

that's all I've got

#

Found some Lore

#

It's a Record

#

"Brephos II"

#

Too much to copy paste

brisk merlin

iron inlet
#

Found a Ghost Shell from the raid

#

I think the 14 wishes is to do with this Record

#

Habitual Wisher - Make 10 wishes in the "Last Wish" raid.

#

This is adorable

#

there's a Record called

brisk merlin
#

WE CAN MAKE WISHES

iron inlet
#

"Make-A-Wish"

light cairn
#

iron inlet
#

Help grant a Make-A-Wish wish.

brisk merlin
#

awww

iron inlet
#

520 is the light requirement for the new raid

light cairn
#

oh no

#

that means 600 is gonna be really hard

brisk merlin
#

there's uh...

#

uh

#

in the database a new material

light cairn
#

shhhh

iron inlet
light cairn
#

stoooop

iron inlet
#

That's your new Bright Engram

brisk merlin
#

I saw that nyx

#

I ofund an exotic sparrow with a name

iron inlet
#

oh?

#

AHA

#

I found some exotic perks

#

I'd have to manually match them to the armour though

#

CHAOTIC EXCHANGER Charging your grenade with Chaos Accelerant, Consume, or Radioactive will give damage resist. Charged grenade hits return a random amount of grenade energy.

#

When Chaos Reach Super energy is almost full, sprinting tops it off. Damaging enemies with Chaos Reach extends its duration.

#

Hits and kills with Blade Barrage will return Super energy after the Super ends.

#

Using a grenade, melee, or Barricade ability empowers you, granting increased damage and resistance. While empowered, the next ability you use has faster regen.

#

Kills and assists you make while standing in your Well of Radiance return Super energy.

#

let me try match these up

Gwising Vest (Chest Armor) - ROVING ASSASSIN

Titan

One-Eyed Mask (Helmet) - VENGEANCE
Marks the enemy that dares to damage you. Track down and destroy your enemy for increased damage and overshield.

Ursa Furiosa (Gauntlets) - URSINE GUARD
Move faster while guarding when Sentinel Shield is active. Guarded damage converts to Super energy when the Super ends.

Heart of Inmost Light (Chest Armor) - OVERFLOWING LIGHT
Using a grenade, melee, or Barricade ability empowers you, granting increased damage and resistance. While empowered, the next ability you use has faster regen.

Antaeus Wards (Leg Armor) - REFLECTIVE VENTS
Improved slide. Sliding reflects incoming projectiles. Reflecting projectiles grant Super energy.

Warlock

Contraverse Hold (Gauntlets) - CHAOTIC EXCHANGER
Charging your grenade with Chaos Accelerant, Consume, or Radioactive will give damage resist. Charged grenade hits return a random amount of grenade energy.

Chromatic Fire (Chest Armor) - CRYSTALLINE TRANSISTOR
Precision kills with your Kinetic weapon create an explosion in the element of your equipped subclass.

Phoenix Protocol (Chest Armor) - BATTLE-HEARTH
Kills and assists you make while standing in your Well of Radiance return Super energy.

Geomag Stabilizers (Leg Armor) - CLOSE ENOUGH
When Chaos Reach Super energy is almost full, sprinting tops it off. Damaging enemies with Chaos Reach extends its duration.

bOOM

#

I think now I've covered everything non-story spoilers that I could cover

brisk merlin
#

I want phoenix protocol

uncut bramble
#

Finally got in to check out the update. Iโ€™ve got one milestone which is the spicy ramen one but it wonโ€™t let me interact with the ramen shop ๐Ÿ˜ 

light cairn
#

hmm, should just say "collect loot"

uncut bramble
#

Nothing. I even tried reloading. โ€œYou havenโ€™t logged in in forever, cuntโ€

#

Itโ€™s stopping my milestones showing ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

#

Frig I forgot how pretty this game is though

#

No idea if my guns are any good but Iโ€™ll find out with this public event lol

light cairn
#

milestones are revamped, that's why they're not the same anymore

#

the old milestones are now "challenges" that show on the respective parts of the director

#

like i only have one actual "milestone" now, and it's just clan xp

winter yew
#

hi

jade lake
uncut bramble
#

Ohhh thanks skip that makes sense

winter yew
#

so I stopped playing Destiny 2 even before the first dlc because it was so insanely bad of a video game, what a waste of money on the season pass. Has the game changed for the better now with Forsaken like Oryx did with D1?

austere lance
#

I'm just waiting for Metro Exodus, Cyberpunk, and Anthem @jade lake

jade lake
#

i just want cyberpunk out of all the AAA games out there

austere lance
#

If I had to pick two games to get I'd pick Cyberpunk and Anthem, they look like they'll give the most play-time for my money

cinder vessel
#

I can't think of any AAA stuff that has me really excited ๐Ÿค”

winter yew
#

what about borderlands 3 guys hoooly moly can't forget that

uncut bramble
#

Spider-Man, tomb raider, assassins creed, Mario smash bros

cinder vessel
#

Yeah, nothin'

#

I just expect those to be decent

winter yew
#

you have game fatigue

cinder vessel
#

Well maybe, but those are all in existing franchises

#

Cyberpunk 2077 & Anthem aren't but I don't have much confidence in Bioware. CD Projekt Red is complicated

jade lake
#

only game this year im looking forward to is smash

#

i dont think CDPR has ever let me down

winter yew
cinder vessel
#

Wonder what Arkane's working on now ๐Ÿค”

bronze wind
#

I'm interested in seeing more about sekiro

#

well we know it's coming in march so i'm content

bronze wind
#

Yeah I'm excited.

uncut bramble
#

Ya boy I got fireworks emote ๐ŸŽ†

light cairn
#

noice

iron inlet
#

I went ahead and did the weapons for Forsaken aswell

#

also ye boi 19.8 GB remaining, looks like it WILL be done by morning :DDDDD

winter yew
#

early download?

light cairn
#

patch 2.0/preload, yeah

winter yew
#

ohh

raven frost
#

so uh

#

that cyberpunk 2077 gameplay trailer

austere lance
#

๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜

raven frost
#

is it okay to say wow yet?

jade lake
#

yes

austere lance
#

Yes

jade lake
#

Iโ€™m super excited I just hope it comes out a stable game

raven frost
#

like I get it's probably going to get tuned down quite a bit but still

#

wow

jade lake
#

It looks like a game that you can just sink so much time into, which I need right now

raven frost
#

I'm not even a fan of RPGs often but I'm really impressed

austere lance
#

Same

jade lake
#

like W3

austere lance
#

Yeah, I played nothing but W3 for a solid month ๐Ÿ˜„

jade lake
#

itโ€™s so good

raven frost
#

I can't lay my finger on what I love about it but it's so goooood

jade lake
#

But it gets old

#

imo

raven frost
#

W3?

jade lake
#

same with yeah

#

wait

#

nvm

#

I was typing something and i replied midpost

#

wtf

raven frost
#

ooh wait W3 = witcher 3

austere lance
#

Yee

raven frost
#

I'm dumb when it comes to acronyms sometimes

cinder vessel
#

Witcher's medieval fantasy so makes sense it would get old

jade lake
#

Yeah, same with BOTW

#

itโ€™s hardly a good zelda

austere lance
#

I put about 150 hours into W3 in a month, lol

cinder vessel
#

i can't say much about Breath of the Wild, other than I really don't think I'd enjoy weapon durability

jade lake
#

itโ€™s kinda pseudo Zelda, a appreciate what it does different, but traditional Zelda is just so much better

#

the dungeons in BOTW suck total ass

#

compared to other zeldas

cinder vessel
rigid haven
#

Weapon durability was a huuuuge downside

#

Huh, might have to check that out

cinder vessel
#

If you ever thought Res Evil might be more interesting with Japanese fantasy/horror elements, that's the game for it

cinder vessel
#

Hmm. Dragon Quest XI sounds like it may be alright ๐Ÿค”

#

lol:
You camp out at campsites with your buds. While camped out, you can forge items. Jason Schreier texted me a few hours into his experience playing the game. He was like, โ€œCan you only forge at campsites?โ€ And I replied, โ€œYeah,โ€ and he replied, โ€œThatโ€™s dumb.โ€ I didnโ€™t have a retort. Well, now, I do: your guys donโ€™t want to make taverns and inns all smoky with forge-fire. Theyโ€™re considerate. [Editorโ€™s note: Thatโ€™s a dumb retort. -Jason Schreier]

rigid haven
#

That's for Dragon Quest?

#

Wait shit

#

Dragon Quest is on 11?

light cairn
#

dragon quest has a zillion games

#

probably one of the few series that even gets close to rivaling FF

rigid haven
#

I only played 9

#

Sentinels of the Starry Sky or something

#

It was wild, with a flying train, angels and stones

light cairn
#

yeah the original is from 1986

rigid haven
#

The original 9 or the original DQ?

light cairn
#

dragon quest 9 is in the same mainline that started in '86

rigid haven
#

So DQ has been going since 1986?

light cairn
#

yes

#

which is exactly what i said

#

according to wikipedia i think there's 43 total games including the spinoffs?

cinder vessel
rigid haven
#

Whate

#

43?

#

Holy shit

cinder vessel
#

Like I haven't known where to start into Dragon Quest because it has so many titles

light cairn
cinder vessel
#

But from the Kotaku review it sounds like Dragon Quest XI may be a good entry point

light cairn
#

it's like Final Fantasy afaik so any numbered one is probably fine

austere lance
#

Final Fantasy VI ๐Ÿ‘Œ

cinder vessel
#

Yeah, still, it's good to read from someone that's apparently played the entire series to some crazy degree say that XI feels like a good stepping in point

rigid haven
#

I've only played 7 and 15 when it comes to FF

light cairn
#

yeah that's high praise

rigid haven
#

15 is great but you have to get the Royal Edition

austere lance
#

Why

cinder vessel
#

Because like I read/hear from everyone that any numbered Final Fantasy can be jumped into, but like unless you know the person's background it's like, "But can it really?"

light cairn
#

it really is

#

obviously don't start with a sequel one tho

cinder vessel
#

And like from personal experience I know that that's true these days, but when I was younger I was always really skeptical

light cairn
#

ah
