Ahhh apparently they wanted to have a "final" major codebase to work from and then do incremental updates to that on a constant basis rather than have a Windows 11, 12, etc. I can see how that would appeal to the Enterprise people especially because they could justify the update to Windows 10...

So it was officially announced today : Microsoft's next OS is Windows 10, will ship later in 2015 Windows 10 Hands-On: Well Hello There, Start Menu! Microsoft Announces Windows 10 | TechCrunch Looks pretty slick, adding the Live Tiles to the Start Menu seems like a very obvious...

Is anyone at Bungie doing a cost-benefit analysis on things like the faction vendors? I am thinking specifically of the Queen faction vendor seeing as the weapons she sells, while somewhat attractive at level 20, are almost guaranteed to be useless. The sheer quantity of content you have to do...

It does seem to be mirroring the early 20th century social upheaval and empire building.

Blue fusion rifles on sale until 1pm eastern, 10 AM pacific. It's kind of insulting that the Cryptarch still has white engrams for sale. I could maybe understand it if we had a means to customize appearance with transmits or whatever, but as it is there's no point in it.

I'm pretty sure they are convinced they have a long lasting IP based on the preorder sales and sales to date. I really think they underestimate how they look to gamers who don't read reddit articles or go to bungie.net to look at the Grimoire. Those people aren't going to post on a forum...

I thought you werent supposed to get a repeat exotic bounty? I already did Pocket Infinity and I'm getting offered that same bounty again.

I thought that read ark nads at first...

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Skill Trees Game has gone gold and the skill trees are published. Claptrap's trees look amazeballs, as does the comedic value of his action skill. I am definitely going Claptrap

Hmmm it looks like we may have a new companion...and its not Danny Pink It also highlights even further how much this series is echoing that of the first doctor

Ooooo. Good use of Carol Kane!

I never asked anyone to service me or to carry me. The people I had done the scenarios with got past the dungeon step and the guild started raiding at which point no one did dungeons. I joined PUGs for two weeks with no luck, joined the channel that someone else on the server set up for...

Fair enough, but given that everything has been so simple these guys are blissfully unaware of even basic mechanics. Just getting the door open was a trial in language comprehension

Trying to explain how the first raid works to MMO newbs is a pain that will linger for some time... I really think they should have started with something a bit less complex even if it seems trivial to MMO vets.

I cant help but think that they (and indeed everything) had a much more elegant backstory once upon a time. Probably tied into why both the Fallen and the Cabal are fighting against the Vex. Like if the Vex were intergalactic forces of Order who were trying to keep part of the Traveler's...

The degree to which this makes no sense is quite staggering.

What the hell is Aetheon anyway? In light of the revelations about the Story I have to wonder exactly how this fits in to anything. As far as I can tell the whole significance of the Vault of Glass is that its a Raid with Vex and they need to die because reasons.

Looking through that material, and especially the proof in the form of background details seen in Bungie's own marketing videos, I have a feeling that the original game was going to be both much larger and make a lot more sense. Hell the areas datamined from the first DLC appear in stuff from...

If you have the ability to have such a crossover between two shows in the same universe why would you not do it? Heck they can share villains and even overarching plot elements as well and hopefully feed off each other. Star Trek made critical blunders in this area with the overlap between...

My buddy finished the game without realizing he had done so. He called me up since he was stuck and didn't know what to do next. He had been calling me up to this point because the lack of manual or in-game description for things like element specific shields etc had confused him. I asked...

Sooo the leaked content list mined from the mission select bug over the weekend ([Video] A players level select screen bugs out and reveals future content including strikes and raids : DestinyTheGame) seems to show quite a bit of Story in the Cosmodrome that should have been part of the original...

Korra taking a three year jump seems sensible. I agree that the trailer has a highly fascist vibe to it. Certainly the world-building that has gone into both of these series is top-notch. I really do hope they have a mechanism to continue with another series following the next Avatar (which...

I have a very easy time seeing Spirit Bloom even from a distance since it glows... Relic Iron, on the other hand, I can be almost standing on and not see it.

Hmmm Caterpillar/Cattle error codes now for all of us on Xbone with Comcast

Just saw the Destiny commercial on the Cowboys Saints game... That game looks awesome, I don't recognize much of the scenes showcased in that thing.

We've gone a long way from 'there is a big dragon in that room, don't get breathed on and avoid the tail swipe' to that craziness I saw with the new conveyor belt raid.

Depends on when the code generates the stuff mailed to you. Since all the old engrams are changing to be blue they will have just modified that item ID and create a new purple engram item. If the item ID is created by the process of opening the email you might be okay.

Having the Queen stuff break down into nothing is really dumb. The whole purpose of doing the Bounties is so you can run the missions. Sure don't have them break down into Ascendant...but at least have them turn into a nice stack of Spinmetal / Relic Iron / Helium with a decent shot at a...

PVP is notoriously hard to incentivize given that you need a mechanism to prevent the rich from getting richer while the poor get poorer. Handing out the best loot for both PVE and PVP to the worst player seems a bit extreme... Doing the 200 headshot Queen bounty today took a lot less time...

Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion | Season 01 Episode 101 Watch Full Episode - WatchDisneyXD.com Its up for viewing on DisneyXD online above or on their mobile app (which does support Chromecast) Decent intro episode. Better than the theatrical clone wars Truman capote-as-a-Hutt launch...

Got the Suros regime. It's pretty nuts

Timescale of character abilities has certainly changed considerably over the years. 15 years ago people used spells that had casting times of 6-10 seconds in combat and many did not even know what a Global Cooldown was. Now if you aren't constantly moving and activating a new ability every...

You can't have massively social role playing games that are popular because any hint of a decent population and the shitcock crowd swarms in with the sole purpose of trying to screw around with everything and make it so that no one has any fun. If there is PVP interaction then the shitcock...

Got the Exotic Bounty for Pocket Infinity while the guy was selling the fusion rifles this evening so did the whole thing in one sitting. Quite convenient.

Those all sound quite sensible. The world boss retroactive especially since it was silly

So what did they do to attunement? I stalled at the dungeon step because everyone had done that part and PUGs (at that time anyway) were 100% guaranteed to fail. Probably could have slogged or begged ny way through it but then there were all the world bosses to deal with and I just didn't have...

Gunsmith has a blue fusion rifle for sale until 10:00 Eastern (7:00 Pacific). 1600 Glimmer each

Yeah their servers are shitting the bed this afternoon.

Well yeah but its not like Hydra will ever go away, that is what makes it such a darn nice enemy. Though they should throw in some A.I.M. for variety

Its pretty random. I have 4 legendary and 1 exotic heavy weapons and not even a single legendary primary. Even before Queen's Wrath I had chests and hats out the wazoo but still sport blue legs (except on my Titan and Hunter alts who both have legendary legs...)
