[alpine garnet]

i mean if they love cats then they’re good person

[mint berry]

You might be on to something

[brisk sage]

I faced someone called Lenmark in my iron banner match the other day I was sad when I realised it was just an imitator

[mint berry]

Right because the real mark would use Lemark

[brisk sage]

It's like when you have the first three matching numbers in the lottery then you see the n between le and mark and your hopes are crushed

[dusky spindle]

Uh not to throw shade on your skills or anything, but ytf are you soloing a three player team?! lol

Unless thats a private match 😆

[mint berry]

They left the competitive game

I don't do private matches

[dusky spindle]

Oh...well thats lame

[mint berry]

Truth be told I was just running around with conditional

[livid vessel]

Marathon under 4 k now wtf this is a new record

Marathon 60 k

[vocal marten]

Average Destiny game

[vocal marten]

Hop on we’ll run some

[fervent veldt]

the duo stack 😼

[coarse burrow]

r u checking flopathon lol

[fervent veldt]

he keeps coming back and trying to rage bait people 😭

failing miserably

[coarse burrow]

im asking bc uhhh...

current count is wild

[tired oriole]

itll go back to 30k in season 2 for 1 month

[trail rapids]

god damn wtf 😭

[tired oriole]

the game just got back up from maintenance and people are finding out that they didnt nerf the wstr like they saif that tbey would

it might be over bc ppl cant hit the back up button

[coarse burrow]

idk what that is but if it just came back from maintenance then that kinda explains it

[fervent veldt]

^^

[tired oriole]

wstr is the shotgun everyone thinks is overpowered so they are nerfing it

even though theres 2 other equally powerful shotguns

with longer ranges

[fervent veldt]

isnt there a shotty with a full auto gold mod

[livid vessel]

Daily trash report

[coarse burrow]

idk what that is

[livid vessel]

Goes down faster than some.girls after some drinks

[livid vessel]

That's why I check marathon

[full yacht]

Lemark do you still raid

@tired oriole

[trail rapids]

n mfs think that game is good? 💀

literally makes no sense to have something like that

[carmine wind]

playing bc they're popular ❌
Playing bc its good ❌
Playing bc you like it

Thats just my MO tbh

[blissful scaffold]

40 mins still weekly reset. Let pray that i can get the auto.rifle drop once for me before IB gone till June

@carmine wind hi zavala

[viscid crag]

They are not equally powerful

Every top level player agrees the wstr is much better than the misriah and certainly the circuit breaker

[viscid crag]

Yeah idk I’m willing to bet everyone here that spends time jerking it to marathon player count has never played the game

The way these people talk about the game you’d think they’re getting paid to hatewatch it

[pine lintel]

fr

[storm relic]

the sad part is that people on twitter actually are getting paid for that

[blissful scaffold]

@viscid crag best 12p is still.perfect paradox

[viscid crag]

It’s actually mysterious I’ve never seen a game have people who have never played talk about it this much

[viscid crag]

Yeah probably

[viscid crag]

Yeah there are bounties to make twitter posts and stuff but most people are doing it entirely on their own which is just sad

[blissful scaffold]

30 mins till reset ! Gotta be quick!

[viscid crag]

Thinking for yourself is pretty hard for the average internet user though

[storm relic]

i dont mean the bounties but the checkmark engagement money thing

[viscid crag]

Yeah probably that too

[carmine wind]

[north nexus]

pardon me for disagreeing: i think there's more severe examples with outrage/culture war stuff

[carmine wind]

The internet deemed it concord 3

It MUST die by necessity

[north nexus]

but as far as consistent complaints by the same people repeatedly about a singular game, i wouldnt be surprised if destiny was number 1

oh wait this is about marathon nvm

absolutely correct, aegis

[viscid crag]

It’s a bungie game let the company kill it themselves

Save your breath

[sour ermine]

Truth hypernova

[cyan stream]

is this reset a boring reset? i came back managed to get my auto rifle from track and 1 of each armor slot in few games of banner lol

[storm relic]

i think if marathon was made by someone other than bungie it'd have like 400k peak ngl

[carmine wind]

Honestly its not even that
Its that the age of the Triple A game is over

Hence why arc raiders gets away with AI use & Bungie cant

No shade on either of them tho

Its just the landscape these days, even bf6 is feeling it

The label of "concord 3" doesnt help

[blissful scaffold]

https://tenor.com/view/pixar-disney-hoppers-lizard-wave-gif-15184704642520455338

[carmine wind]

Im just here to ride D2 until the servers finally close & die

[hearty lily]

quick question, how many times have people thought the game was gonna die but it never did?

[carmine wind]

Depends on who you ask

some say it was dead 6 years ago

Some say its dead now
I say "do i care?"

[hearty lily]

because people said the same thing in the final shape but it didnt die

[carmine wind]

Must be thousands

[hearty lily]

meh i dont think it is i think people are just waiting for something to drop, bc the game is pretty dry rn, i'm just playing rn bc i never did all the stuff for eof or renegades, and i'm having a lot of fun rn

the game is really fun when there's stuff to do but right now, nothing is new except for ONE new gun in iron banner

[carmine wind]

NO NO NO NO
YOU CANT HAVE FUN ITS TRIPLE A DEAD BUNGIE GAME
PLAY SLAY THE SPIRE TWO NOWWWWE

[carmine wind]

But yeah theres nothing to do
Im just here making builds tbh

[hearty lily]

making builds is fun to me aswell

[carmine wind]

Thats why d2 suffers beyond post nut shape clarity

D2 just suffers bad when its not updated

[blissful scaffold]

@hearty lily new flash: same people who keep yapping about game is ded, will says game is so back when June update come out

[carmine wind]

Its the cycle

But kinda doubt it this time around

Didnt really happen with renegades or ash n iron

[hearty lily]

i think this june update will be really good, it will give people a good reason to do older raids and maybe make those raid weapons meta again

i enjoyed the first pantheon too

[void plume]

damn never seen this server so empty on the VC

[brisk sage]

11/12 players on IB eruption waiting for game to hopefully load in even though reset just happened lol

[fervent veldt]

zavala is selling unfall, if anyone even cares about that lol

[tired oriole]

needs disruption break for sturm activities

[fervent veldt]

Meanwhile the people that have played it all generally say the same thing. “Game’s fun.”

[viscid crag]

Yeah it’s legitimately good it has problems but I think it’s a one of a kind experience

Hi 🐠

[frigid hatch]

when i login im angry at how trash most players are it's actively dragging me down with them, but never bored, so yeah idk why people crying like they an infant that ain't had they mums T . I . T

[vocal marten]

The ability to recognize Skissue vs game mechanic issue is lost on a majority of gamers these days it seems

[viscid crag]

[blissful scaffold]

@vocal marten my 1st and last IB before it gone give me non IB weapons 🥀

[frigid hatch]

guardian games and getting The Ritual (Witness first fight) was so horrible lmao

[fervent veldt]

what

[frigid hatch]

because everybody kept shooting the nuts, running away from trying to use the shield

basically had to Hitless the entire fight to even beat it

[zinc garden]

Guys which Unfall do I take from Zazvala? Nothing is really standing out to me.

[fervent veldt]

none

returned memory clears unfall

unless you dont have it then uhh i guess lfg + a damage perk?

impulse is good too

[frigid hatch]

most of them got OFA

jolting is also fine

take one with Implosion rounds is more important

Implosion = +15% more damage from the Explosion portion of the attack

this the only one with implosion

[zinc garden]

Gracias

[fervent veldt]

surely

[frigid hatch]

OFA ain't exactly nice for rocket sidearms since their boom radius is so tiny

[inner sandal]

shirley

[frigid hatch]

good perk, just not good for them

[fervent veldt]

you dont really need blast radius

just more velocity

[zinc garden]

I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.

[plucky notch]

how interesting..

[fervent veldt]

and so am i lol

[blissful scaffold]

Another week of slop Destiny 2

@zinc garden hello!

[zinc garden]

What’s good, man? Enjoy IB?

[brisk sage]

Lmao I had the exact same thing happen

[blissful scaffold]

I WAS BUSY BUT MANAGED TO DO 1 MATCH BEFORE RESET. GAME GIVE ANYTHING ELSE BESIDE THE AUTO RIFLE

[zinc garden]

😢

[blissful scaffold]

I THOUGHT I CAN GET ONE MATCH BEFORE IT GONE TOO BUT NAH, "BAT"

https://tenor.com/view/reee-kid-tantrums-gif-15375793

[zinc garden]

What was the god roll for that AR anyway?

[fervent veldt]

dsr + kill clip or target lock

zen moment is there too

[frigid hatch]

aight gamers which one we think i oughta keep?

[zinc garden]

Keep both and dual wield

[frigid hatch]

god i wish lmao

[inner sandal]

Neither are exceptional tbh

[frigid hatch]

maybe i'll keep both, let my titan have rewind swash roll and my hunter can have the Void perks

[storm relic]

Man high tyrant is the best legendary primary a void titan can dream of

[frigid hatch]

it's ironically the best possible pve rolls for the gun

[storm relic]

Dond sleep on it chat

[frigid hatch]

Reghusk is mostly PVP perks

[inner sandal]

It’s just a reckless oracle lite

[mint berry]

No

[frigid hatch]

arguably better or worse, depending on how you look at it

[storm relic]

Do you like OFA or target kock/golden tricorn

That's the decision

[zinc garden]

I like GT on Voidlock with Briarbinds. Easy uptime.

[fervent veldt]

the real answer is sharding reghusk pve rolls and wait until they buff primaries and the gos reprise

[frigid hatch]

naw i'm a simp for autos

i keep 'em all except the truly.... TRULY trash ones

like seventh seraph carbine

[fervent veldt]

the only autos ill use are 720s, maybe 600s in pve but even then, theyre sitting in my vault collecting dust until bungie buffs primaries

[frigid hatch]

remember when-....

[fervent veldt]

thats a different story

[frigid hatch]

i still never used this thang

[inner sandal]

conundrum hammer

[median plover]

guys
i played destiny last time when forsaken came out
Could you recommend me what activity should i start first?

just bought every dlc except renegades

[inner sandal]

I was gonna say renegades

[pine lintel]

damn i wanted to get one of those

[fervent veldt]

i love utility weapons

[inner sandal]

But if you want the best loot outside of that, start with portal activities

[median plover]

ill check on them, thanks

[frigid hatch]

just do trials it's still in the drop table

[inner sandal]

If you want the best playable content, do the Final Shape campaign

[pine lintel]

thats what i do, but i havent gotten lucky, i always get either the kinetic shotgun, or armor most of the time.. the hc only dropped once then never again

[median plover]

well i heard final shape is even better than forsaken,
but i cant play the without getting new loot lmao, i want to get some guns first

[frigid hatch]

oof

[quartz bridge]

is always on time still faster?

[fervent veldt]

all sparrows have the same speed as AOT but AOT is still better because of the benefits

[frigid hatch]

no

[fervent veldt]

ever since they patched tap boosting on skimmers, i went back to aot

[blissful scaffold]

Rising can dual weild

[frigid hatch]

okay but then i have to play a gacha

[trail rapids]

first is garbage second is best

[mint berry]

Is it yesterday's question or is it tomorrow's answer

[mint berry]

Good thing I'm not a HC person

[alpine garnet]

spare rations the best gun

[mint berry]

I think that's rapid kinetic on mine

[frigid hatch]

oh, that's something i can do now, actually, farm Judgement lmao

[mint berry]

Yeah

[frigid hatch]

hadda fix up my drip after all that iron banner

[carmine wind]

If only a kinetic tremors + shoot to loot + attrition orbs roll was possible

It'd be still hunt's crack

But its 3 perks

[carmine wind]

Hot take: Vanguard's Vindication + Ferropotent 2 piece perk is a highly underrated combo

Just need a special ammo vanguard weapon that has good ammo econ

Or for primaries to not be an active detriment

[shadow lance]

Are there any even playing

[mint berry]

Absolutely me and Mark were playing earlier

Mark was holding points and I was getting kills

I don't play objectives

[tired oriole]

first time playing destiny 2 in 2 months

[mint berry]

I see this pop up

[tired oriole]

they kill farmed us and we still won

[pine lintel]

they just suck that bad ig lmao

[uneven ginkgo]

Man, they are down bad Aztecross is starting a fresh D1 character...

[elfin whale]

which unfall should i pick up from zavala

[delicate dust]

The third one, with Impulse Amplifier/Jolting Feedback.

[sacred flax]

Holy tuff

[mint berry]

I went to Target right

Explain this

Let's go came out 2018

[delicate dust]

💀

[mint berry]

Za came out in November

[delicate dust]

Why is it 100?

[rocky geyser]

This server having 500k members is crazy

[north nexus]

the explanation is that nintendo and TPC have a chronic aversion to sales or bargains of any kind, meaning that they sell old games at their retail prices

i think the markup over retail (normally lets go would be 60) is target being wack, though

[mint berry]

Call of duty Black ops 3 still 80 bucks if you want all the DLCs

Black ops 2 still $60

[dusky wigeon]

yarr

[storm relic]

Isn't it kinda funny that the tier system argument is so so similar to the crafting/random drop argument that this time it only took bungie 1 year to address it (tier upgrading) instead of 2 (weapon enhancing)

[delicate dust]

At least they're learning. :\

[blazing fox]

zavala is selling t5 unfall is it usable at all?

[fervent veldt]

unless you have a good returned memory already, i wouldnt recommend this rocket sidearm

unless you want a arc rocket sidearm for build crafting stuff

[blazing fox]

wtf is returned memory

the tiered solar from crucible?

[alpine garnet]

hi repter hi

[fervent veldt]

yeah the solar rocket sidearm from crucible

[blazing fox]

ppl in lowman are saying it’s just an energy slot “the call” jolting feedback is worthless

[fervent veldt]

yeah i wouldnt recommend jolting feedback tbh

[blazing fox]

games so dead i started playing mtg and ow

[mint berry]

Magic of the gathering imagine

[blazing fox]

wdym

[mint berry]

We all know Yu-Gi-Oh is better

[blazing fox]

yugioh is the least beginner friendly hobby i think ive ever seen

every card has the entire bee movie script printed on it

17 game actions at split second speed

win before turn 3

lmao

[mint berry]

Oh you're talking about master of the pendulum

The card with the most words

[blazing fox]

there’s a magic card that’s illegal in like every format that has a link to a website

1 sec lemme find it i think it has yugioh beat

[mint berry]

But yeah I know exactly what each for these do

[blazing fox]

it’s called “Urza, Academy Headmaster” i’ll dm you the link

[mint berry]

I understand legendary plane Walker

Those get beat by pendulum cards

[blazing fox]

like don’t get me wrong yugioh has SAUCE the card back is better than every other tgc but i just can’t see myself getting into it @mint berry

[mint berry]

Get this

You follow

Pull this card

And sell it

Each of these are going up to 5,000 starting at 500

[viral bloom]

Question, if I've already done the GM conquest missions, would re-completing them count towards the grand conqueror triumph for the title?

[late meadow]

Can I get Outbreak perfected now?

[late meadow]

Nvm

[sour ermine]

No, you have to wait till june like the rest of us

[viral bloom]

Nuts, I was hoping to get the title this season 🙁

[pine fog]

What kind of nuts

[sour ermine]

When the big june update drops it will still be this season technically speaking

Just like how ash and iron was still season 27

[pine fog]

There’s gonna be a new bp tho yeah?

[sour ermine]

Even tho it had its own reward pass

[viral bloom]

Oh? Alright, interesting

[sour ermine]

Yeah until a new expansion drops the season no longer changes

[viral bloom]

Good to know, thanks 🙂

that strike… was something else and I still missed it. But not in good way.

[slow copper]

Thorn version was genuine trash

[fervent veldt]

🥀💔

[plucky notch]

yeah… I remember killing the big knights thinking that I gotten it! And when I found out that I had to kill the final big boss? I gave up and quit Destiny 2 for like 3 months. I came back in time during season of the.. wtv to save Saint 14.

[lapis grail]

Rapid hit meganura ain’t bad on a oxygen

I’ll take it homie

[slow copper]

No, but heal clip is more ideal

[lapis grail]

true

[slow copper]

I mean HC OFA is probs the best i'll get so that's okay

i really need a better legendary bow

[quaint hollow]

gun is cheeks

[slow copper]

we just lying

[lapis grail]

I was using tyranny of heaven for a legendary bow

[slow copper]

man that was THE ritual weapon when it came out

[plucky notch]

you know what one gun is straight up trash? The SMG from this expansion.. it’s so weak. 😭

[slow copper]

yeah I have moving target/explosive head so

[slow copper]

which smg 😭

fast talker?

[plucky notch]

idk the name of this Star Wars wannabe dlc.. it has the cooling reload mechanic. I deleted the game again. Delete this game 27 times..

[lapis grail]

Renegades?

[slow copper]

dawg

This is probably the best DLC they've released recently

Aside from Final Shape 😭

[plucky notch]

yeah for the first.. 1-2 weeks after release sure. But now? holy.. it’s bad post release.

NOTHING to do.

[charred yacht]

Why do you hate fast talker lmfao

[slow copper]

Okay so, why is it bad?

Dawg you just don't like it because you don't have anything to do

I love this DLC because i still have PLENTY of things I want to/can do

Lawless frontier might be the single best addition gameplay wise they've put in

Plus we're getting pantheon 2.0 in june, so idk what we're on about

[plucky notch]

post release. 3+ months of nothing til June. Iron banner’s re-release that they claimed to improve.. came as.. trash. Nothing change. More than 3 months.. doing nothing.

[slow copper]

(I kinda hope we get onslaught-esque stuff again)

[slow copper]

Okay so what I'm hearing is you just don't enjoy what's currently in the game and want to blame them on not making content fast enough since they just released Marathon

Which is fine, don't get me wrong

But just because we're in a lull right now since they've released their first new IP since BEFORE DESTINY does not mean the game is bad 😭

I can name SO many things to do right now

[dawn verge]

If you're a new player, sure.

[plucky notch]

it’s not about fast enough. I don’t really care about how long it takes. The quality of this game gets now? Absolutely abysmal. Awful. Marathon is getting more communication. Destiny 2? HAHA! Hell no.

You wished

roadmap? non-existent

gone.

[slow copper]

10 raids, 6 dungeons, Multiple different exo missions if you still need those (for whatever reason), Lawless Frontier, Gambit (not ideal), Crucible (if you enjoy PvP), etc.

Like listen, I'm usually a destiny hater but frankly I'm not gonna say there's nothing to do

Like just go play destiny: rising atp 💀

[lapis grail]

Which unfall is the best today?

[slow copper]

third one

allegedly

[lapis grail]

Roger that

[plucky notch]

rising is equally as bad as destiny 2 but alright sure. 10 OLD raids.. 5 OLD dungeons and 1 recent new one. One and.. exo missions from like beyond light? lmao

[slow copper]

Okay, i still fail to see how there's nothing to do

[dawn verge]

If you're new, sure. But anyone who's been playing for any meaningful amount of time has farmed those to death. Also, of those 16 raids and dungeons, only two, arguably three, have anything worth getting since the other dozen-ish are have been excluded from the tiering system.

[slow copper]

You can still have fun doing things that are old though like

[slow copper]

Sometimes I just do things to do the activity

Lemme bsfr, I refuse to do salvation's edge even though i want all of the weapons

[plucky notch]

maybe every once a while sure. But right now? Nothing to do if you are long time veteran. But if you are brand new? Then that’s a different story.

[dawn verge]

I'm doing Crota's End right now, our sixth guy is taking a poop. It's okay, but knowing that nothing I get here isn't worth it doesn't help. Also, it doesn't help players en masse turn the game on. Just having something to do isn't why people play.

[slow copper]

I have 4k hours and I've been playing since beta i have PLENTY of things to do

(Like collecting lore books :3)

[dawn verge]

4k hours is nothing, you still have TONS to do.

[slow copper]

Correct

I do, and i intend to do them

However, I'm sad about the things I didn't get to do on this account because I wasn't on it during pre-DCV

Like All of the leviathan raids, the forges, etc

[dawn verge]

So what about those of us who have actual play time?

[slow copper]

God I loved the Forges

[plucky notch]

I have roughly 5k hours.. been playing since the alpha of D1.. I have done literally everything I wanted in this game. Nothing at all to do without finding a dead game with no one wants to do.

[slow copper]

You act like 4k hours is nothing though

[dawn verge]

Those were mid.

[slow copper]

That's your opinion, and that's okay

I personally enjoyed them, SOTP is (to this day) still my favorite raid

As much as DSC tried

[plucky notch]

that’s like.. everyone’s most favorite raid..

[alpine garnet]

@dusky wigeon you pulling?

[humble patrol]

anyone farming fireteam ops

[slow copper]

Nothing for me to really get from FT ops atm but if you want I can join

All of my things are in pinny right now

[humble patrol]

i just need people who know what they are doing and can farm them fast with me

tryna grind the points and power

so i can get the bonus focus

[slow copper]

Ah

Which op are you trying to do?

[coral hinge]

Well i finally finished edge of fates campaign. Honestly i didnt like it at all

[humble patrol]

quickplay

[slow copper]

That is the general consensus

[plucky notch]

with the power reset change they did with Edge of.. awful. Make sense.. but.. damage numbers.. why the hell do they still need it change that bloody thing.

[dawn verge]

It's fun, but I think there are better ones.

[coral hinge]

nice to know its not just me that felt that way

[humble patrol]

/join retro#6515

[slow copper]

This is the one thing I can agree with you on, I understand the light level reset, since 2050 was egregiously high

But damage numbers still don't make sense to me

[plucky notch]

true.. don’t get me wrong. There are some newer raids are fun.

[slow copper]

We are a GODSLAYER, there is zero reason my gun should do 25 damage per shot lmfao

[coral hinge]

im starting the renegades campaign now

[dawn verge]

It just made no sense really.

[slow copper]

Prepare for funni lightsaber

[plucky notch]

I want to see my total number BIG. Not.. you know this.

[humble patrol]

how do i do the quickplay fireteam challenge

[slow copper]

I think EoF gave us a better understanding of things like the veil (if i remember correctly), and we learned more about the IX but like yeah it was all over for most of it

[slow copper]

wdym?

[coral hinge]

i figured id be getting a lightsaber at some point

[humble patrol]

it says something about high power

[slow copper]

lemme go to the bathroom rq

[humble patrol]

ok

[slow copper]

It's like half to 75% of the way through campaign

But it's honestly so worth, and the upgrades are scattered throughout the dlc's activities

[plucky notch]

I still don’t understand the veil.. even if I watch video or watch the lore? It doesn’t make any sense to me.. to this very day. 😂

[dawn verge]

The Veil is basicalyl the darkness version of the traveler.

[slow copper]

The IX were always meant to be some mysterious outer gods, afaik, but the veil never got a real explanation til they went back over it in EoF

[coral hinge]

seems fun. also is there anything worth doing on the edge of fate planet still?

[slow copper]

Aside from raid/seal? no lol

[plucky notch]

so basically the darkness power runs by the veil? Similar to the light and the traveler?

[quaint hollow]

oxygen was terrible when it was pinnacle weapon too g

[slow copper]

nah that’s cope

[slow copper]

Pretty much, yeah

[coral hinge]

oof.

[slow copper]

it’s why the witness needed it to enter the traveler

[dawn verge]

Strand and Stasis don't come from the Veil.

[plucky notch]

interesting.. so in this instance.. it’s legit like Yin and Yang, relatively speaking

[dawn verge]

But like how the Traveler connects to the Light, the Veil does that for Darkness.

It's weird and just a plot device.

[dawn verge]

Light elements are physical, dark elements are mental.

[slow copper]

They’re paracausal

It’s more than physical and mental

[dawn verge]

At a basic level, it is.

[plucky notch]

Alright. I need a lore sweat/fanatic that are here to fully help me understand this even more deeper..

[dawn verge]

Check out Byf's old videos before he jumped ship.

[plucky notch]

Didn’t he like quit or something?

[dawn verge]

As most have, yes.

[slow copper]

that is what jumping ship means, yes

[dawn verge]

You can't make money playing this game anymore.

[strong cape]

Does anyone want to chill and run d2 ? with only older weapons and builds. Just want to experience fun like how it used to be before EoF

We can run it on friday

[slow copper]

see this guy gets it

oh on FRIDAY? man

i’m not sure i’ll be alive by then, lemme check my schedule

[blissful scaffold]

https://tenor.com/view/ena-shinonome-proseca-project-sekai-geminids-gif-27122512

[slow copper]

im unmedicated :(

[outer tundra]

@stoic oracle

[strong cape]

nah frrr just looking back at it , it would seem fun to run old weapons/ builds again

[slow copper]

if only they didn’t remove ways to get 90% of old weapons

i’d so run kindled orchid and threat level

Or well, tatara gaze/BF

[strong cape]

true, still got some older content where you can then

in the worlds

[slow copper]

True

but i’m talking like DCV content

[strong cape]

true

well whenever you or anyone’s down add me lil rino #0165

[coral hinge]

well just beat the first campaign mission for renegades and i already like it more than edge of fate

[fleet condor]

Bingbong

[coral hinge]

the story questline seems a lot shorter than edge of fate too

[slow copper]

It is

[coral hinge]

like is it really just the 13 step one i have in my quests right now?

[slow copper]

Uhhhhh

shouldn't be...? I don't 100% remember

[coral hinge]

this is the one i have rn

[slow copper]

Oh yeah keep doing that then

[dusky wigeon]

got her and lc, we lit

[fresh sail]

Keep up the good work guys, destiny gunna have the same player count as marathon soon ^.^

[wide ice]

Did they stop letting us post in #d2-fashion ? my image perms aren't working there

[coral hinge]

okay so looks like that first quest i had was more of an intro thing. Got the actual story quest now

[pliant wave]

i don't need to worry about the registration site in this discord showing as 'not secure' do I? lmao

follow up question. i saw a deal on Humble Bundle where if you donate like thirty bucks, they send you steam keys for the expansions, my research shows they're reputable and work alongside the Bungie Foundation. is this a legit way to cop the expansions?

[alpine garnet]

omg huge W

[slow copper]

dawg it's humble bundle they're like one of the most trusted retailers

[pliant wave]

i've only been gaming on pc for like a year so a lot of this is still new to me lmao. i appreciate the confirmation fssfss bro

[blissful scaffold]

U just resurrected. Good. Now use this and fight witness immedietely

[slow copper]

Basically yes

[verbal field]

we up

[slow copper]

Oh boy I can't wait to play Wuthering Waves

[turbid karma]

Its a lot easier to determine how much damage you're doing when the numbers are smaller

[slow copper]

I say, lying to myself.

[slow copper]

Nah let me see my auto rifle do 4k per bullet

Heavy do like 15-20k for an lmg

Or higher ig whatever the OG figure was

[turbid karma]

Too many numbers on the screen

I mean i dont think it was absolutely necessary that they changed it but the numbers being smaller was probably a neutral change if anything

[blissful scaffold]

Hsr?

@turbid karma talka about that remind me of this

https://youtu.be/YxGQ4g5V1Lw?si=xorq8J430icNx5XH

Primary actually shreds
Ad back then

[charred yacht]

I think think the damage numbers being smaller causes a bunch of rounding errors with damage buffs

probably some way to test it maybe im wrong

I'm curious why they decided to lower it, maybe having smaller numbers somehow helps with like the game performance but that just sounds ridiculous to me

like shooting 1 mag of yeartide does 376 damage for me and transcending (5% more weapon damage) it still does 376 damage
my guess is cuz each bullet does 8 and 8*1.05=8.4 which rounds to just 8

[alpine garnet]

ayooo!

[charred yacht]

new number system is buns

[lapis grail]

I remember 2-shotting Sedia, the Corrupted with Sleeper Simulant on heavyweight in like 2019 😭

I gotta find when I uploaded that clip to my instagram

Oh it was September 2021 wow…

[cerulean olive]

I'm pretty sure the game only rounds when showing numbers

[blissful scaffold]

@charred yacht @cerulean olive not missing out the old number but.... when i see Datto use HC to kill red bar and yellow at ease back in Spire of the Star video. As oppose now, i can see why people double special to maximize the dPS

[charred yacht]

maybe then, I feel like itd be weird for like the shooting range thing to be showing the number based on all the rounded values combined 376 instead of like 376*1.05= 394.8 rounded to 395

[true ledge]

thought i was the only one that hated the new damage numbers, i understand its easier for visuals and calculations but i dont really need to see the math behind it unless im truly min maxing my damage. after years with old damage numbers i cannot get use to it

[charred yacht]

but maybe the shooting range is just bad

[blissful scaffold]

Shooting range aint consistent

also, something number aint adding up

[charred yacht]

it seems pretty consistent to me, but it might just be consistently wrong

[blissful scaffold]

i being with some other and they did tell me about inconsistent

@charred yacht i was out for event till like 30 mins before reset. i did one IB match and got loots beside the IB Auto rifle

[lapis grail]

Jeez man… May 30th, 2019 I posted 1 shotting Sedia with nighthawk golden gun…

(850,836 damage)

[slow copper]

I need people to do Salvation first encounter with but MAN no one is farming it

[lapis grail]

Salvation’s Edge or Garden?

[slow copper]

Salvation's

[blissful scaffold]

Witness deez

[slow copper]

Nah if I want the AR from Garden I have to farm SECOND encounter

[lapis grail]

alright

[slow copper]

I just want to craft non-denoument and move on

Nullify would be nice too but there's better pulse rifles

[blissful scaffold]

why do that now when this June, old raids will get tiered

[lapis grail]

I’ve had success with nullify in PvP. I have firefly and incandescent.

[slow copper]

Because it's... Craftable?

Like I know the tiered weapons come out in june, but they're likely not craftable

[blissful scaffold]

non tiered and old perks

[slow copper]

Okay but like

Non-denoument is one of the better combat bows

[blissful scaffold]

no Mambo

[slow copper]

I don't even need Nullify

Name a better combat bow than non-denoument atm

Is there gonna be nothing for D2 in May?

[blissful scaffold]

@lapis grail hop pff D2

[slow copper]

Maybe we'll get solstice but that's like... June/July

[lapis grail]

what did I do 😭

[blissful scaffold]

May d2 is May May

[slow copper]

It's generally like... March... June... October... December/January

Like what's the BIS combat bow right now

[blissful scaffold]

i meant: Hop off D2 in May

[slow copper]

(aside from HoN)

[lapis grail]

I just don’t think there’s gonna be anything for May

this is gonna hurt d2…

[blissful scaffold]

Yes! that is why D2 can be hop off

New game to play!

[slow copper]

Destiny 2 is gonna drop below 5k active in may

[blissful scaffold]

Mostly Go on gacha game

https://klipy.com/gifs/cirno-cirno-fumo-5

[slow copper]

Not gacha

Gacha bad no gacha

https://klipy.com/gifs/dudidam-mambo-1

[slow copper]

I really was hoping to use a better legendary bow but seeing as Arms week isn't coming back any time soon, I'm not getting King orfeo with Explosive head and Meganuera

[blissful scaffold]

what u use bow for ? vE or vP?

[slow copper]

PvE

I use jade rabbit in PvP tyvm

[charred yacht]

wait nevermind yea the shooting range is just inconsistent and bad, game doesnt have the rounding error, but the shooting range just counts together all of the rounded numbers instead of how much damage you actually do I guess nevermind lol

[blissful scaffold]

@slow copper

[slow copper]

Boo trinity ghoul

But i guess i'll use the free ADC weapon

I was more looking for a champ buster, which Lemon does well, it just doesn't get Unstop from Artifact

[lapis grail]

Began this on Ultra-Violence

I've been disappointed by New Malpais in comparison

[spiral shale]

so how is the game doing rn

[tired oriole]

:)

[spiral shale]

also how do i change to eu

im eu not na

[mint berry]

PVP in an hour be there

[tired oriole]

You can change your region with the /region command. Must be performed in one of the text channels.

[spiral shale]

thank you

[mint berry]

@vocal marten so I bought $120 worth of girl scout cookies five bucks a box and so my brother decides to donate it to the homeless

[mint berry]

[alpine garnet]

hi sad face hi

[pine lintel]

outpost runs kick my ahh everytime

[tired oriole]

i became good at the game after dying over and over and over

[tired oriole]

yes

[uneven ginkgo]

Damn... apparently Tassi's source is saying the dev size at bungie has Marathon slightly edging out D2

thats wild considering the studio hasnt really grown.... so they are cannibalizing D2 for Marathon.... Those 20 to 30k concurrent players must really be worth it

[tired oriole]

he said it. it must be true

[alpine garnet]

[remote loom]

Is it possible to do all GM conquest? Haven't played ina while

[tired oriole]

Nope not yet

[knotty wyvern]

20-30k seems a bit too high tbh.

D2 concurrent players: 6,976
Marathon concurrent players: 9,173

[alpine garnet]

hi Inept hi

[frigid hatch]

this isn't news at all, we already knew it was the case before the game launched lol

[alpine garnet]

there’s 874k players on consoles

[lapis grail]

is that marathon and d2?

[knotty wyvern]

Yeah Marathon was always going to be DOA

[trail rapids]

ark survival evolved has more players than that usually

shi is sad man

[knotty wyvern]

Hopefully whoever made the call to pretty much abandon D2 in favour of Marathon got the sack and ousted from the gaming industry

[alpine garnet]

didn’t fish idle 2 game have more players

[coarse burrow]

coulda had d3 by now

[alpine garnet]

so round! https://www.vxinstagram.com/p/DXUEOY7Em-n/

honestly probably

[urban compass]

as great as that game was, is it worth replaying?

[mint berry]

A remaster drops tomorrow man

[urban compass]

in an age of creative bankrupcy AAA gaming is just remakes and remasters

[mint berry]

I mean Ubisoft still has rainbow six keeping it afloat

And it just acquired the rights to Star wars for the next few games

[urban compass]

...ubisoft is like the Dr pib of AAA

[mint berry]

Could be worse

[urban compass]

star wars is pretty played out idk nothing about that IP is exciting

[mint berry]

They could be EA

[urban compass]

Battlefield is def doing better than rainbow six

[mint berry]

But is it better than splinter cell and Ghost recon

Or Vegas

[urban compass]

games that no1 plays?

[mint berry]

Doesn't siege have more numbers right now

[urban compass]

definitely not

siege just has loyal players

[mint berry]

11 years of rainbow six

How many battlefield

[urban compass]

they avg about the same, siege def retains more

[alpine garnet]

hope there’s ps5 version

[urban compass]

cant beleive the avg for last 30 days of d2 was just 7k on steam

[alpine garnet]

there’s 703 gazillion on consoles, trust

[urban compass]

no there isnt lol

[urban compass]

across all platforms rn its 20599

PS is 9214

[compact remnant]

Since the last intern quit working on d2

[trail rapids]

whenever u want

[compact remnant]

when D2 dies y’all think the traveler will resurrect it?

[sage badge]

D2 dies and bungie employees form a new company to make a new game

[hollow hull]

i think id genuinely vomit if that happened

Just let sony take over, and put all the staff on a d3 and let it cook for 3-4+ years

[haughty token]

D3 propaganda

[alpine garnet]

bungie should learn from hoyo how to make good games

[rugged drift]

What does everyone use for heavy weapon in solo gm arms dealer ?

Bitter end it is lol

I'm going to need 5 40 lb bags of concrete

No, have someone confirm it and move to exfil.

Your spotter should be logging

[tired oriole]

1 200 pound bag work?

[mint berry]

someone's a pro at this

[mint berry]

That's new bed sheet

[charred yacht]

legimately sucks to watch destiny die so bungie can work on marathon

[hoary plover]

Destiny and Marathon are both in a race to dipping player counts

[cursive pelican]

let bro cook

[fervent veldt]

☹️

[urban compass]

sony is going to split the studio up to work on other sony titles

unless they buy themselves back but i dont think they can afford it

[charred yacht]

cant wait for the destiny reboot in 10 years

[urban compass]

im betting if bungie cant make a case for why they deserve to keep working on titles that are actively losing money the studio will be shuttered by end of year

[ripe pond]

can’t they just shut the game down and get their bag and go work at a different company?

[charred yacht]

why do you want them to shut it down

d2 players want destiny to die more than bungie does tbh

[urban compass]

sony would be in charge of the servers to keep the game running, but they dont need bungie to do that. If they dont see bungie providing any value (i.e. creating new products they trust can make money) they will close the studio and carve out the best talent they need from it for other things

I doubt sony would shut the game down if its still bringing in enough of a trickle to justify server costs

[charred yacht]

if bungie gets shut down its all going, thats how shutting things down works

[urban compass]

no, sony can maintain whatever they want including running the game, they own bungie, therefore they own the IP

unless there was some sort of clause in the agreement when sony bought them

[true ledge]

theres barely anyone doing raids, do yall think when june update comes and they bring the tiered system to the old raids, the player base or at least the ammount of people doing raids will be a lot higher?

[urban compass]

no

no1 likes tiered loot, bringing that system to raids isnt what anyone asked for

[sour ermine]

If they make the weapons and armor sets actually desirable and the update brings more than just RaD content yes

[true ledge]

😂

[tired oriole]

i mean bungie has 3.5 billion dollars do they not

[urban compass]

that money is long gone lol

[tired oriole]

true

100 cars

[urban compass]

you're referring to the amount sony bought them for how many years ago?

[tired oriole]

was it 5

nvm 😹

[urban compass]

4

[wide ice]

Tiered loot was never gonna work this late into the game I dont think

[ripe pond]

seems like this company is tired of coding this game and wants to code marathon

[urban compass]

marathon uses the same engine...

[wide ice]

Assuming desert perpetual doesnt have tiered loot either that makes it all the more redundant to play at present

[ripe pond]

yeah if i were pete id ditch this game too

[urban compass]

desert perpetual is the only raid with tiered loot atm

pete hasnt been around in years

[ripe pond]

didn’t he leave like last year or smth

[tired oriole]

soon every raid 🙂 and dungeon

i cannot wait for that to be the inly thing to do next season

[tired oriole]

or for the rest of this season 😹😹😹

[wide ice]

But then the question of why didnt they plan on converting all the raids to tiered loot when DP was already getting coded for it surfaces

[urban compass]

“Regarding Destiny 2, partially due to changes in the competitive environment, the level of sales and user engagement have not reached the expectations we had at the time of the acquisition of Bungie,” Sony said.

“While we will continue to make improvements, we downwardly revised the business projection for the time being and recorded an impairment loss against a portion of the assets at Bungie.”

that was Nov last year

so prob more layoffs

[urban compass]

bc it prob less than a handfull of devs that have to comb through spaghetti code which is prob taking forever if they are not familiar with the other raids. Bungie like to rotate newbs onto D2 and use the veterans for marathon

[charred yacht]

cuz bungie always does this like for when levi raids still had static rolls or when they slowly added red borders to all the raids

[urban compass]

d2 is likely being worked on by entry level devs with a few leads, bc its relatively "simple" to edit or copy paste in "new" content

[alpine garnet]

my uncle working at bungie said that the game is being coded by Grok now

[urban compass]

your uncle is clearly not a dev, no dev uses grok

everything is claude

[alpine garnet]

claude too expensive for bungie

[dusky wigeon]

no way i just saw someone fall for 1/10 bait

[alpine garnet]

can you believe that today I baited somebody to get seele

[wide ice]

Dedicated servers are too expensive for them too

[urban compass]

Marathon has em

[alpine garnet]

truth nuke

[carmine wind]

which one, uchur or meat

or jma

[wide ice]

Do you think marathon is just a last hallelujah to make some kind of money before they went under?

[carmine wind]

i think Marathon was a "Sony told us to" Project

[wide ice]

Surely they didnt think it was gonna be as big of a hit as destiny or even arc raiders in the context of extraction shooters

[urban compass]

it was all they could come up with bc they are creatively bankrupt

[carmine wind]

kinda like how Sony was responsible for Concord

[alpine garnet]

marathon is money laundering enterprise

[urban compass]

AAA is literally just remakes reboots and remasters

[wide ice]

So its just a bunch of execs pushing an agenda?

[alpine garnet]

minesweeper remastered when

[carmine wind]

Of course the top brass did, but the top brass didnt account for, well...
"ITS CONCORD 3" "WOW THE VISUALS SUCK" "they stole art (Not ragging this, this is valid)"

[wide ice]

Theres no fkn way this is real

[urban compass]

they do...

[carmine wind]

of course

[wide ice]

Speaking of which i need Todd to puke out FNV remake soon

[carmine wind]

why do you think Sony did Horizon Zero Dawn's remaster

and people are already calling it "Concord 4"

[urban compass]

didnt they already do a FNV remaster

[alpine garnet]

right after the next TES game

[wide ice]

Remake, like they did with Oblivion. I wouldnt mind if obsidian handles it

[urban compass]

nah that would be gross

[carmine wind]

its not "creative bankruptcy" like Meat says
The line must exponentially go up.

[wide ice]

Why? Outer Worlds 2 did pretty ok

[carmine wind]

it has to, the investors (which they are federally obligated to cater to more than their own consumer base) will poop their pants if line doesnt go up exponentially

[urban compass]

if by ok you mean extroidinarily mid

[carmine wind]

that means they have to shoot lower, and lower, and lower

[urban compass]

I dont think the line has been going up for awhile

[wide ice]

I mean in that genre? There arent any entries like it thats doing as good

[carmine wind]

well it has to. Otherwise investors get scawed 😱
