[rustic flicker]

@bronze ocean

so basically

this is a graph of total damage vs damage per second

and for swords theyre one of the few archetypes with a positive trendline, meaning any weapons that fall beneath the trendline are pretty bad

because the weapons above the trendline aren't punished as heavily for being better in one of the areas

[bronze ocean]

So if vortex is bad what’s better now

[rustic flicker]

adaptive, caster and wave

however

caster and wave in this case only apply to ergo sum

[bronze ocean]

Wave frame sword? How does that work

[rustic flicker]

adaptive applies to legendaries

[bronze ocean]

Eh whatever I’m here to have fun and the vortex spin 2 win pleases my brain

[rustic flicker]

i cant get a clip but basically

[bronze ocean]

The adaptive sword slap is lame

[rustic flicker]

heavy fires out a big wave

[devout mason]

Swords akso aren't really used for dps anymore either

[rustic flicker]

if you determined to use a vortex for whatever reason, you would do far better with an ergo sum unplanned reprieve

[rustic flicker]

*outside of a few bosses

[devout mason]

Even then

[bronze ocean]

Oh I mostly use rockets for bosses. Swords are mostly for clearing crowds. But it’s nice to be able to slap a boss with it too if I have to

[rustic flicker]

crota you should definitely still use swords

he gets a damage buff to them

[rustic flicker]

if you want a sword for adclear, arc conductor ergo sum

[bronze ocean]

Whats ergo from

[devout mason]

Gotta do Final shape stuff in the paleheart

Aka overthrows

[bronze ocean]

Oh good it’s not witch queen or light fall

raid exotics: All except necrochasm, the one from SE, div, and vex
titles of note: Descendant, twice gilded conq, iron lord
lore progress: somewhere between 500-1000 total loretabs read, read every lorebook up until Chosen

[atomic island]

I find it funny u miss the 2 guaranteed raid exotics lol

[cedar hearth]

[tulip bough]

Y’all wanna see some bullshig?

and no it wasn’t resonance… x2 stacks, 1:20

[drifting plaza]

only reasonable explanation is lag spike happened tbh

[steady fulcrum]

I think the Witness just had it out for them and them alone

[zinc pewter]

You landed on the dudes head

Also is that 7th Seraph Carbine??? 😭

[drifting plaza]

lol so landing on somebody's head counts as grounded for that attack?

[gentle sable]

yea

[lunar rose]

Still no Navi

[mystic saddle]

have u thought about just getting it

smh

[devout mason]

Or doing the triumphs.

[mystic saddle]

ive used navi for a total of 1h i reckon

i didnt abuse titan enough to care for it

[zinc pewter]

The woven mail and sever just by shooting an enemy is nice, but yea it's kinda shit outside of abusing grapple melee

[devout mason]

Ive seen no one use navigator unless its grapple spam and even then tbh

[ionic jetty]

i was there when the server started vanishing
the first to cry for aid in the depths of #💻tech-support

a dark day

[ripe sluice]

That was a long time ago

[mystic saddle]

it was about 17/06/2023 ago

roughly 23:07

[hardy pasture]

most of misc should still have some iirc

since they didn't get wiped

I remember a safe haven establishing in tech support

[ionic jetty]

good times

[clear hatch]

I think I'm one of not many people who didn't leave/get kicked during either raid

[gentle sable]

dark times

[hardy pasture]

yeah I still have my original join date as well

from the olden times of season of the worthy

[clear hatch]

Damn

Destiny boomer

[mystic saddle]

i got the big fat boot sadly

[hallow needle]

LMAO THE BACKGROUND

This is mine

[steady fulcrum]

I used to have a Zavala faceapp pic

As my bg

This one I think

[steady fulcrum]

Why does he look so evil

I swear thats how bro walked around posessed by Savathun and no one figured it out

[wise flare]

I have my old join date too

[zinc pewter]

I hate him

[shut ginkgo]

just pc, not counting years of console 💀

[hallow needle]

oh I have less than 1k hours, wasted on destiny says i have over 600 hours afk

[shut ginkgo]

theres a thing that tells u how much u afked`?

@languid arrow im maining swordy

the scout rifle with impact casing

[languid arrow]

umm

what is this

[forest night]

its on the post

theres 3 more articles it links to

[languid arrow]

oh wtf I just noticed that

also wwtf

[forest night]

What’s happening with weapon crafting?

Weapon crafting is not going away and will continue to be a way to craft a specific roll of a weapon.

Our intent is for crafting going forward to provide a catch-up mechanism for rolls you weren't able to nab from the original sources. This may be because that source is no longer available or was gated by lockouts when it was. But ultimately, we want crafting to support the weapon chase, and not replace it. We’ll follow up with more details in a future article.

[languid arrow]

if they nerf weapon crafting then we are so back

holy shit

its all I ever wanted

[rough gazelle]

@devout mason this is what they mean by customizing challenge

[karmic bolt]

So they deleted seasons to introduce episodes only to go back to seasons lmao?

[forest night]

except the seasons are now fully f2p and will be less story focused

[karmic bolt]

The real question is will it be called season 24

[vale void]

yes

tbh the 3 month seasons were better

[vale void]

thats good

[forest night]

i will be season 28 when they refer to it as a season but they are probably gonna use into the light type names going foward like echoes

[karmic bolt]

Wonder if expansions are going on a price hike

To balance out seasons being free now

[young birch]

One of the worst d2 youtuber

[karmic bolt]

The dawn chorus guy?

[forest night]

my guess would be $40-50, still makes it 100 a year

[karmic bolt]

Destiny is....back?

[vale void]

40 each makes most sense

if there gonna be smaller in size

they should cost less

[karmic bolt]

Another car for parsons

[vale void]

and they both include new raid dungeon

[ionic beacon]

they finally added asiimov to destiny

[static python]

Icebreaker returning??

[astral egret]

yes

apparently

[ionic beacon]

they should only make red borders available once the weapon is no longer in rotation

[astral egret]

copping

ong

[ionic beacon]

like the seasonal weapons

[static python]

I didnt even notice that😭😭

[ionic beacon]

it honestly kills the game quick to have weapons crafted the day they come out

[static python]

If you cant get a weapon anymore how are you supposed to get the red border versions?

[ionic beacon]

like they do for the rotating exotic mission

[static python]

Oh

[ionic beacon]

they have the seasonal content there

[static python]

I forgot those give seasonal guns

[ionic beacon]

ye

like the DMT mission gives seraph weapons

[agile ravine]

Why they forehead so damn big

[static python]

I hope the title and armor isnt time-gated

[ionic beacon]

it prolly is considering it’s an anniversary event type deal

it’ll prolly be similar to ITL

[static python]

New titan fashion, instead of massive shoulders its massive foreheads

[zinc pewter]

🤨

[hardy pasture]

I expect more something along the lines of those higher tiers of weapons being more valuable generally that crafted weapons

ofc they said the high tier weps would be along the power of current adepts? I hope that's not the plan, otherwise this plan is completely doomed.

[karmic bolt]

Pot breaking time

ayo

the apollo art has me interested

[whole sapphire]

?

[zinc pewter]

[runic folio]

the coil???

[whole sapphire]

Ew

[opaque solar]

IS IT JUST ME OR SHOULD DESTINY ADD IT TO WHERE YOU CAN PUT A WAYPOINT ANYWHERE ON THE MAP INSTEAD OF A SPECIFIC SELECTED AREA

[whole sapphire]

Ooooh

[runic folio]

they look constructed by a megacorporation but then left to rot

[round torrent]

I’ve always wanted that ngl

[whole sapphire]

Spam goes hard

[opaque solar]

spam?

how come

[round torrent]

These symbols mean anything?

[vale void]

nah

[rancid mauve]

Honestly what would be the point

[vale void]

not seen it before

[runic vine]

I love no land beyond

[cursive plinth]

@floral ether

[runic folio]

structure looks human

[round torrent]

Cuz if your trying to get somewhere but there’s not way point there

[opaque solar]

lost sectors. i obviously don’t have every place memorized and it’s annoying going back and forth to the map

[zinc pewter]

it kinda reminds me of this ngl

the second image at least

[runic folio]

or deep stone crypt after it crashed

[rancid mauve]

True actually forgot you cant mark lost sectors unless its the daily one

[opaque solar]

it’s sooo annoying and sometimes quests require specific spots it’s easier to mark them and just try to find it there

i wish there was a feedback section and we can submit requests it would be so helpful

[harsh parrot]

damn they really dropped the episodes not even after the first one

[clever pine]

what return to calling them seasons?

[harsh parrot]

ye

[clever pine]

[harsh parrot]

from 3 eps per year to 4 seasons per year

[clever pine]

back to 4 seasons too?

man

[karmic bolt]

Got that eververse funding to make it free

[atomic flame]

i actually feel like throwing up

@devout mason what in the everliving FUCK is this

[cursive needle]

This is a proof of concept

This isn’t the final image

[atomic flame]

i do understand that

still i dont like oversimplification

it just removes the soul of the game

[cursive needle]

Well we still have the normal stuff

[devout mason]

My destination tab boutta look ugly

[cursive needle]

This is just a quick access menu

[main compass]

It's not like they gonna do a complete overhaul of that..I think atleast 60% of it is final

[cursive needle]

Destination menu is still there

[atomic flame]

i dont see the logic in this

surely it just kinda, strips the story impact of each mission back?

[unkempt patio]

I just dug this up

[main compass]

I doubt even they know what it means when they wrote it

[vale void]

mobile game ui

[main compass]

Well, that's Destiny Rising, their new mobile game

[clever pine]

no? it's a mockup of the portal, the new main screen meant to "replace" destinations

[agile ravine]

You know it’s just a new menu right

Like destinations is still right over there

It’s basically just the Guardian tab but for activities

[haughty spear]

https://youtu.be/p2xYvdBG1lA?si=wSOZjbvId0ZvJ_6G

The community kinda ignored this dialouge tbh

The part that worries me is the “inferior version”

Kinda signifies that Rasputin isn’t the last warmind… or Clovis is making a stronger one

[atomic flame]

yeah but still

[agile ravine]

Still what

What does this impact

You can just not look at the menu

And use the destinations

[zinc pewter]

wonderful
https://youtu.be/oObk5W66X7M

[agile ravine]

Osteo

[haughty spear]

Idc imma continue using rev0

[zinc pewter]

those are his real rankings in the thumbnail btw

[agile ravine]

QUICKSILVER

[atomic flame]

it'll likely open up to that

just more menus to clog up their already menu heavy game

[agile ravine]

There’s a dismiss button in the corner

I highly doubt it’ll be replacing the orbit screen

[main compass]

The Shader UI is one of the worst i have ever seen. Probably that person is fired already

[agile ravine]

What

[zinc pewter]

if they add a search thing for shaders it would be fixed

i think a lot of the "shader menu sucks now" is that they changed the icons so you arent used to them anymore

[main compass]

Why is the new one super-imposed on the old one is my question. Keep the diagonal ones only.

[zinc pewter]

why

its so much easier to find matching shaders now

"what color is this? diamond shape on the icon? that shader also has a similar color on the diamond"

[zinc pewter]

its out guys

[warped aurora]

Do you just get it from the get go?

[zinc pewter]

you can get the ornament set after looting cayde's stashes

Oh

Cooolsies

[signal laurel]

its weird seeing an empty ornament inventory

[chrome stag]

holy shit they get it

[cursive needle]

Wow 💀 so I gotta get to rank 8 to finish the title while others just gotta beat the campaign

[astral egret]

no, its bullshit because it isnt true

[sly fiber]

Especially because you're locked going downward for a while

Yeah I noticed that

Found this

Yeah melee lunge is really wonky

If you freeze someone out of their melee lunge they just fly past you and explode on whatever they hit

Gonna keep that for later

So to reach justiciar, i need a title

To get the title i need justiciar

https://tenor.com/view/wtf-confused-look-gif-24835232

[limpid hearth]

have you considered getting a different one

[glass cosmos]

i scroll through others, it gonna take way more time for me XD

[limpid hearth]

well legend disappears once frontiers comes around so you have a lot of time

[glass cosmos]

so you tell me i have to wait another aniversary for it

:(

is legend title a yearly title

[toxic axle]

Prob a one time thing

Just get an event title, they are easy af

[glass cosmos]

yeab but the problem is i need to get justiciar

[glass cosmos]

but it required me to get a title

[toxic axle]

You get that event title for rank 8...

[glass cosmos]

which i scroll through my other triumph, others are pretty time consuming

[hardy pasture]

that is by design yes

[limpid hearth]

frontiers wont be until late next year probably, you have a significant amount of time

[toxic axle]

Dawning has an easy title

[glass cosmos]

i started like 1 month ago so i dont really do much title or achivement grinding so my progress is kinda slow behind

;(

[limpid hearth]

the seasonal events are very easy yeah

theyre just very grindy and boring to do

[glass cosmos]

alright, ill see what i can do

[limpid hearth]

except dawning, i love being a star baker

[glass cosmos]

thanks for the advice everyone

[toxic axle]

Conquer is easy aswel

[glass cosmos]

I dont have strand ;(

[limpid hearth]

was afraid this would be the case

your best bet is probably just waiting for seasonal events to come around and doing them

[glass cosmos]

alright, thanks

maybe ill buy lightfall during sales

[limpid hearth]

you coukd go for virtual fighter once you get lightfall, i dont remember it being too hard to get

actually

lone wolf wouldve been annoying had the invincibility bug not existed

[glass cosmos]

alrite

[limpid hearth]

lone wolf requires you to do a master lightfall mission solo

however, theres a mission where you can become invincible

its not intended and iirc its not removed

[glass cosmos]

hm

nah not gonna exploit

[limpid hearth]

that is very fair

[glass cosmos]

i dont find fun doing that

i rather die a lot of time and learn from it

[limpid hearth]

i respect that

[jade lance]

I don’t recall doing that for the title

[limpid hearth]

oh whoops its just a regular master run

i forgot i did it solo to knock out both triumphs

[lunar rose]

Still no Navi time to wait til next feature

[devout mason]

Bruh just do three runs a week and do the god damn triumphs

Isn’t liminality one of the strikes anyway

The red would suggest... Vanguard Dare chest? Perhaps?
And... what's the arm, Empyrean Cartographer?

[civic onyx]

Wrong on both, its the war mantis chest and the iron forerunner arms. It is an old fit though. The new stuff is typically dreambane mask, iron forerunner arms, thunderhead chest and the fr0st-33s

Huh?

Thought it would be the third portal

[bleak jetty]

bribs

[fluid hull]

Technically they should be more like flying reptiles

[zinc pewter]

?

[upper temple]

not to be THAT GUY, but birds ARE reptiles. traditionally excluded from "reptiles" for the sake of identification.
of course, there were flying non-avian dinosaurs at some point, and there are several reptile species that can "fly". that is to say, square rectangle situation. all birds are reptiles, but not all reptiles are birds.

[gentle sable]

wow this is guy is THAT GUY (a nerd )

[hallow needle]

Its just cause this cayde line is supposedly rare

I got it once or twice I think, funny lil line

Surely ikora's last radio message in the helm doesn't hint at anything

SUURELY

[proven hedge]

I think it's funny

[zinc pewter]

it is? couldve sworn ive heard it every time

[hallow needle]

I mean thats what I've gained from searching around

[gentle sable]

alright

[zinc pewter]

(thats Cayde's VA)

[gentle sable]

yes i know

[zinc pewter]

[sick pond]

shit stain had to be wiped lol

[gentle sable]

cayde became a cop

[upper temple]

whenever i see nathan fillion i think about how he is the face model for edward buck from halo and yeah they kindaaaaa look similar (and his vocal performance for cayde and buck is very similar....)

[zinc pewter]

@warped aurora you

[gentle sable]

the AI

[zinc pewter]

dont use starvation or Ill Omen

especially Starvation, youre getting devour from your aspect

[elfin marten]

Why I'll omen I like the sword?

[elfin marten]

Ok do you have any recommendations on what I should swap it to

[zinc pewter]

because caster frame swords are the worse of any sword archetype, but if you like the sword sure

just dont be surprised if youre kicked from anything when using it

[elfin marten]

Okay well do you think that you falling guillotine is better cuz I also like it

[zinc pewter]

guillotine is far better yea

also depends on the roll

[elfin marten]

Okk I think I'm going to swap salvation with persistence

[zinc pewter]

Harvest, Instability, Persistence and Undermining

those are the fragments you want on voidlock

[zinc pewter]

pretty bad roll, but still better than Ill Omen

[elfin marten]

Harvest I don't know because I don't weaken any enemies

[zinc pewter]

thats what Undermining is for

[elfin marten]

Yeah I just read that I don't know because it reduces my discipline by 20

[zinc pewter]

you still get insane regen from Contraverse

and weaken is a strong debuff

its worth the tradeoff

[elfin marten]

Okay well I try it out thank you

[elfin marten]

What is this one better cuz this one looks much better

[zinc pewter]

oh definitely

you wont see much use with Surrounded though, but if you can activate it, its great

[elfin marten]

Okay what is a godroll

So I can keep my eye out or is there something better than falling guillotine

[zinc pewter]

the one from Onslaught, it gets Frenzy + Whirlwind

eager edge is also good for movement

[elfin marten]

Ok what is that one called?

[mystic saddle]

falling as well

just onlsaught version

[elfin marten]

Ohh

Ok

[elfin marten]

That one?

[zinc pewter]

yea

[mystic saddle]

yessir

[elfin marten]

I can't find a different auto rifle I like better than gnawing hunger

[zinc pewter]

you might like Ros Arago

same rpm

better perks

Rewind/Subsistence + Golden Tricorn is what you want on it

[elfin marten]

What slot is that for

[zinc pewter]

same slot, same element

so youll have volatile rounds from your fragment

[elfin marten]

Nice

Is that a world drop

[zinc pewter]

yea

[elfin marten]

Great

[harsh parrot]

@heady girder your name should be markellplier

[hallow needle]

This is not a game for sure you know

[heady girder]

I can tell from the "strategy guide"

[hardy pasture]

bewildered there's actually people who even test it out like it has any chance to not be a scam

[jade lance]

That’s beyond fucked

Holy shit

[main compass]

There is no strategy required to play that expansion

[drifting plaza]

well, there's certainly a market for that kind of thing, just check #❓destiny-questions daily

i could see people being scammed by this

Hey @Bungie @BungieHelp @DestinyTheGame @A_dmg04 @Cozmo23 @DestinyComArt soo, the NERF ace of spades DIRECTLY lifts a commission i did in 2015. This is not "similar" or a coincidence, you can see my same brush strokes and scratches/smudges.

Hopefully this is on nerf and not bungie cause otherwise

oof

[drifting plaza]

ngl i'm not an art person but seems a bit of a stretch

also wouldn't the design be a bungie copyright

[languid arrow]

I would agree but it looks like the nerf gun has the exact same scuff marks

[drifting plaza]

are those scuff marks present on the original ingame ace of spades model tho?

[languid arrow]

I don't believe so, Pretty sure this person's design is entirely original.

[drifting plaza]

hmm

well i guess i won't comment further, still not convinced but that is probably me not being good enough to differentiate minute art details

[languid arrow]

Personally I see the users point the exact scuff marks are the same in some area's 1:1 and the chances of that being random have to be in the millions

[drifting plaza]

i guess that's a good point, the patterns look like they have the same cracks and everything, even if they are shaped differently or scaled differently

but then again

[languid arrow]

I'm thinking that nerf probably found this image online while making it thinking it was offical bungie material.

[drifting plaza]

would that count as transformative at this point

[drifting plaza]

if this is the case then whoever did that at nerf made a major mistake lol, should get official designs from bungie channels and not just random internet searches

[hardy pasture]

look I mean on the one hand I kinda get it, on the other hand idk if I'd consider scuff marks and a little bit of a floral design to be much in the way of ripping off

[drifting plaza]

yeah it's sort of like the heat tfd got for copying d2 and warframe perk pics

bungie didn't really pursue legal action over that right, they changed it to appease players

[languid arrow]

I mean I would agree but it looks exactly 1:1 to me.

which means they just took the same scratches and whatnot and just put it on the nerf gun which if thats true is kinda fucked up

even if its something little like that

[vale void]

this has happened before

[languid arrow]

Yeah but that was a different studio thinking it was offical destiny material

I'm thinking that's what happened again here but it was nerf thinking this was offical bungie material

[forest night]

Did they say it was made by them, there is a very decent chance this was also outsourced

[languid arrow]

The nerf gun?

[forest night]

yeah

[shut ginkgo]

the great country of europe

[languid arrow]

checking rn

[shut ginkgo]

I mean the scuff marks are like on the exact same spots lol

[languid arrow]

seems to be made by nerf / hasbro

[rustic flicker]

who is this

[shut ginkgo]

somebody from the d2 lfg server (also in this server tho)

[alpine bronze]

Coped

[austere shoal]

need more stuff on screen.

[zinc pewter]

Wouldn't be the first time ngl

[zinc pewter]

"We are revamping the Hud to display more buffs and separate the important ones"

Exotic armor is still bunched into that

Have fun seeing your HOIL timer

[austere shoal]

Jokes on you. I'm using doom fangs now lmao

[zinc pewter]

Ew

[austere shoal]

[languid arrow]

same thing happened with that cutscene in uhh

witch?

or deep?

one of the two

cause I doubt bungie had any part in the design

[zinc pewter]

Deep I think

It was the Witness origin cutscene

[languid arrow]

likely just gave nerf / hasbro the license and said "make it look like this gun"

[dreamy ridge]

they somehow managed to fit 1 more buff

its not like we still have 70% of the left side free

honestly I wouldnt mind them displaying like 10 buffs

I rather have more info than less

[zinc pewter]

i would like exotic armor stuff on the right side

screen feels too 1 sided

[dreamy ridge]

honestly just make it max of 10 buffs and but exotic armor buffs below armor charges and every other buff under that

it would make everything so much better

rn I cant tell if my radiant or devour is running out

cause they keep overlapping

[dreamy ridge]

I feel like thats the idea

so you get to look on the left and see the buffs

not left to right

most people are not used to the raid and weapon buffs displayed still

[agile ravine]

There was also that one WQ teaser that used a fanmade Xivu design

[alpine bronze]

Oh I remember that

[zinc pewter]

with how talented the community is, i really cant blame bungie for mistaking fanart as official concepts

but then again, youd think theyd have some sort of harddrive or folders with concepts relating to what theyre working on

[languid arrow]

guess I was right

[devout mason]

Slowzo

@languid arrow i think the worst part is these have already started to be manufactured

[languid arrow]

Not really a bungie problem

it'll be on nerf / hasbro

they are the ones making it

so rip them ig

[devout mason]

Its weird this has happened three fucking times this year

[languid arrow]

you think after the first time bungie would provide people with material

[devout mason]

I think someone on bungie's side needs to be fired

[languid arrow]

I honestly don't think it's bungie's fault.

They even said partner

what likely has happened here is bungie just gave the nerf company the license to make this replica / blaster thing and when nerf was making it they used this as material

cause bungie isn't gonna design it most likely

[devout mason]

I'd usually ageee

But three times in one year

Sus

[cursive plinth]

I remember the Season of the Deep fiasco but what was the other one

[languid arrow]

I don't see any reason why bungie would use material that isn't theirs

so far it seems like it's been outside of bungie when this has happened

like the cutscene back in deep

what likely happened here is nerf was hired to make it

they send this design back to bungie and them having no idea it was ripped from some random fan design approved it

[scenic gate]

theirs's ?

[signal laurel]

yes’s

[languid arrow]

No idea why it auto corrected to that

[heady girder]

💀

they pointed out like 11 different points of similarities. doesn't seem like a stretch to me

a few times can be considered a coincidence, but 11 similarities is too much to call it a "stretch"

[drifting plaza]

yes they pointed out points of similarities but to my untrained eye it seems like there is still a bit of difference

but yeah that's moot now that d2 team is investigating

[heady girder]

just think of the fact that if even scratches were copied, then you know it's bad

a design can be inspired, but to even copy such a minor detail, shows that they were lazy.

[zinc pewter]

[drifting plaza]

i'm just not arguing about this lol d2team already onto it so no point talking about it

[zinc pewter]

^

[heady girder]

I thought this was a normal conversation about bungie yet again copying work, not an argument, but sure

at this point, I can't even defend bungie saying it's because they had some third party do the art

when it's happened this frequent from what I've seen in X, hard to defend.

[harsh parrot]

Hasbro

[languid arrow]

I mean it's literally not bungies fault though

this is from a 3rd party

[ionic jetty]

Aye, except Bungie would have provided them with reference images. It is just as possible that, and not for the first time, Bungie used an unofficial image as reference material.

We can't say either way right now as 3rd party observers.

[languid arrow]

Bungie is pretty stupid but I dont think they are stupid enough not to recognize their own work

[ionic jetty]

They've literally done it before.

I'm not saying it's what happened, but it is possible.

[languid arrow]

When was this?

[ionic jetty]

The first example that comes to mind is this one that was only just posted
https://fxtwitter.com/Rahll/status/1833930029677388060

Either way we'll hear about it soon enough

[mystic saddle]

i dont see it that similar

[languid arrow]

I mean I see it but

concept art is different then actual material used in marketing or when selling something

doesnt make it any better though

[dusk crater]

The only thing thats different is the colors and the helmet, wym 😭

That shit is plagiarism

[languid arrow]

yeah thats fucked up

[warped aurora]

The far most right one looks like the crisis armor

[floral ether]

rice

[mystic saddle]

Womp womp

[gentle sable]

truly a womp womp moment

[scenic gate]

i think more art should be stolen for profit

[upper temple]

nice joke bud

[gentle sable]

you think its a joke?

[scenic gate]

i wasnot joking i hate artists

[gentle sable]

no i was talking to helios

[scenic gate]

i know i was clarifying

[gentle sable]

i know you are 100% serious about stealing art for profit

i see

[heady girder]

I mean, it's their responsibility and this is not a recent issue.

[languid arrow]

it's not though?

If bungie hired this company to make a product for them its not bungie's reasonability to like look over the people's shoulder and make sure they are only looking at offical bungie artwork

thats just not logical

its clear that the people at nerf who made this probably just googled "ace of spades destiny 2" and found this image not realizing it wasn't bungie material

[zinc pewter]

The eye of helios?

[languid arrow]

bungie even said they had to investigate with their partner to see why this happened

[drifting plaza]

could be that bungie gave license to nerf and just said to them "hey if you need any resources just ask" and nerf company didn't do that

[languid arrow]

^

[heady girder]

So if this company has had repeated issues of copying art from individuals, we're supposed to look the other way because "it was a third party".

[languid arrow]

It makes no sense whatsoever why if bungie made the design why they would use material from outside bungie when they literally made the gun

[languid arrow]

there has been 3 cases of it so far.

• the newly talked about D1 concept art thing
• season of the deep cutscene (which was confirmed to be the fault of a 3rd party)
• and now this one which makes no sense why bungie would do it considering they own the gun and its original material

So its currently looking like the nerf thing isn't bungie's fault cause it makes no sense

[opaque solar]

wasn't the deep cutscene really simplistic and you could make a point of it being just a coincidence

[zinc pewter]

Nah it was pretty similar

They even said that someone mistook it for official artwork

[languid arrow]

^

[zinc pewter]

Artist wasn't mad thoigh

[cursive plinth]

TWO PHASE MASTER HERALD ON FINALITY

[zinc pewter]

(That's the norm)

[zinc pewter]

They were just hyped about bungie using it as reference material

[cursive plinth]

First time for me

[zinc pewter]

But they still received compensation iirc

[gentle sable]

yes

silly little destoyer eyeball

[scenic gate]

those who know ---->

four from what I can see. This shouldn't be an issue four times, but here we are.

[zinc pewter]

Honestly the best BL game imo

[gentle sable]

im sorry

[gentle sable]

honestly true

[heady girder]

best Beyond Light game

Where are you getting four from?

which they quickly fixed

yea

im honestly kinda surprised people noticed it too, from what i remember it was a small image in the corner somewhat hidden by the vignette(?)

But yeah nah that's on bungie for letting it slip past

[random eagle]

Fuck the cabal 😭

[void wolf]

https://corweee.artstation.com/projects/o29okw

feel the need to post this cuz its so cool

[random eagle]

God they need to start doing contests for more fan armor to make it into the game

Truly remarkable works of art that should be allowed in

[void wolf]

this is infinitely better than most sets in the game

[random eagle]

Real

[void wolf]

its crazy how much the community makes being better than whats in the game

as a warlock i feel especially shelled

my class item doesnt even add to my drip

[random eagle]

You’d be surprised I wanted to be a concept artist but the idea of it is off putting now I’ve seen so many badass character designs within video game gallery menus that should have been in the actual game go unused and discarded so many times it’s insane

[void wolf]

i cant look at the concept art for this game

[random eagle]

Then companies end up choosing the worst possible option 😭

[void wolf]

it actually pains me

its SO much better 9/10 times

[random eagle]

I have never fucked with any of the dlc poster armor sets since beyond light

[zinc pewter]

good and evil wizard sets is a prime example

yes it was a community vote

[void wolf]

that was a whole wipe

[zinc pewter]

but still couldve given both sets

[void wolf]

it should have been a surprise we made both sets cuz we dont suck

[random eagle]

For a entire dlc based of having ice powers you’d think the armor sets would be badass ice armor or something

Or better artic survival stuff than what we got

[void wolf]

hiding behind the community using a vote as a scapegoat is low

minecraft does it often, not anymore though

i sorta liked the crystocrene armor

[random eagle]

I thought it was ok but for the theme much better could have been done

Especially for witch queen

[void wolf]

witch queen armor made no sense to me

weapons too

it looks footballish

[random eagle]

Then when they do end up making fire armor it ends up behind a dungeon key paywall

They cooked with the season of the deep dungeon armor

[void wolf]

or in the shop

yes they really did

[random eagle]

That too

[void wolf]

i hate having to do dungeons or raids so i just dont have like any of the armor or weapons in the game

[random eagle]

I will forever stand on my belief that they made the class item ugly as possible to force people to buy the ornament to look a little bit better….even tho the one in the shop isn’t any better

[void wolf]

i hate how little hive things exist despite them being established for so long and having so much content

there are no heresy hive armor sets

wq armor isnt hive

season of the witch weapons werent hiveish

heresy weapons dont have an origin trait yet

[random eagle]

I hope they deliver for that upcoming Hive god season they’re doing story wise and armor wise so much potential to reach further into their lore

[zinc pewter]

witch queen armor is based off Ikora's Hidden

[random eagle]

Plus more content of course

[void wolf]

im so looking forward to the next two seasons

and not this one

i dont care about the vex

i have been dragging myself to complete this season pass

[random eagle]

I like the idea but god I wish they just looked better

I despise that cloak

[void wolf]

the actities arent fun, the exotic mission is a slogfest

the vex needed some new enemy type or something idk

a new big and small one

[random eagle]

Almost out the trenches im hyped for that season that’s supposed to be “vampire hunter” themed I pray they cook on that armor

[void wolf]

yesss

[random eagle]

https://tenor.com/view/bh187-blade-deal-with-it-gif-19215841

[void wolf]

im most excited for the hive season

but scorn will be great aswell

the weapon they showed looked cool as hell

[steady fulcrum]

What are you expecting from seasonal content mr

[void wolf]

the seasonal content kinda is the only content

its either that or yearly dlc drop

[random eagle]

Tbf it wouldn’t be much just to add a couple of new enemy types in the mix or even a boss with maya just for the very end the exotic mission is so repetitive

[heady girder]

what weapons

[void wolf]

the alien stake crossbow looking one

[random eagle]

I’ll be blade fr

[steady fulcrum]

Im fairley certain it would indeed be quite much to just add new enemy types considering how tightly designed they are

[void wolf]

i will not do exotic missions more than once

[random eagle]

Well nothing major like the new enemy types from the witness but something just to shake things up a little

[steady fulcrum]

Then dont

[void wolf]

i dont even have choir of one because i turn off destiny or get progress locked by a bug

the bugs are fixed but i just cant do it

[steady fulcrum]

No one is forcing you to play the game man

[heady girder]

sounds like krill issue

[random eagle]

Honestly not as bad anymore if you hop on fireteam finder and get lucky with a group of people

I didn’t do a single mechanic and they opened all the chests

[heady girder]

fireteam finder I barely use

discord lfg >

[void wolf]

i got disconnected after convincing myself to do it and get it over with and they both had their fireteams turned to private so i couldnt go back

then turned off destiny lol

[steady fulcrum]

Just play it yourself? Neither the missions nor the puzzles are hard

[heady girder]

fireteam finder has shitters filters

[random eagle]

Wasn’t out of laziness just had a cat emergency and they finished without me I came back to my screen with everything unlocked 😭

And my controller has crazy drift so it thought I was there
