I thought it was at least 5 years ago where they said Black Friday was basically dead because the deals are essentially year round now. People still get excited because the stores tell them it's a sale, but you can find that shit on Slickdeals in March if you wanted.

Yeah, I have the Xur stuff from last week for Hunter and Warlock ready to go. I'm enjoying myself so far, but I know it's going to be shitty by the time next week's reset rolls around and I'm basically done with the game until December. I can't imagine I'll need another week after that to hit...

What's the best method for doing the 2nd and 3rd characters? Hit 20, equip your 1st character's highest weapons, and then use tokens to get full 265 legendary armors? And I assume after that, just do the normal milestones and exotic questlines? Which would basically mean the "boost" you get...

Does that mean the reset isn't until Thursday then? Or is it just a random patch mid-week? They also took servers down around 12:30pm PDT today. Not sure what for.

Fuck, 8 hours? I don't have time for that shit. Guess I won't bother raiding.

What's the likelihood of us being able to complete the raid this week for PC? Not sure what the difficulty level is. Or really, anything about it to be honest.

Just curious, but how long did it take you to get through the campaign each time? I was estimating something like 5-6 hours, but I think I'm at about 4 right now (been playing in short spurts) and only level 9. I was trying to "speed run" them as much as possible, but I ran into a hiccup where...

Damn, dude. Did you do 3 characters? Janx and I both apparently made it to 283 yesterday. I'm working on leveling up my 2nd, but it's taking longer than anticipated to get through the campaign (was hoping to knock out at least a few milestones before reset). I haven't noticed very many people...

When does PC get it? Or are they supposed to be the same now?

Weird, I find scout rifles are probably my favorite weapon to use. I had an energy one for a long time that melted, but around 265 I started using Nameless Midnight only. Pulse rifles just seem shit to me in general. I guess if you aim below the head to start, the last few shots would headshot...

This is what I was getting at with my post yesterday. Once you hit 265, the only way to increase your level is exotics or the big milestones. Also, is there a list of what all the weapons I should be keeping are? I'm pretty much sure I got rid of an Antiope-D yesterday, and apparently it's good?

Dunno, I noticed the same thing. I keep getting D.A.R.C.I.'s and Actium War Rigs, which was extra annoying since they're both Xur items. Have had 3 of each drop. I think I've had 5 other exotics besides those, so that seems like pretty bad odds.

How are you farming exotics? Just running PE's? Anyways, as an aside, it came up yesterday in Discord between myself, GuardianX and Janx, but the decision to make it so that a fireteam has to travel together to every planet is absolutely baffling. Anytime an engram drops that needs decrypting...

Holy shit, I'm literally about 10 minutes into the first episode and I just said that to my wife and came here to post it. They're really going overboard on the "nostalgia." And it's super distracting.

Hit 282, so I guess I'm basically done. I still have the PVP engram to do, as well as Rat King and Sturm, but those two can wait. All the guides I read for 265 were shit though. The only way I was able to get an upgrade was through one of the milestones or plain luck (getting legendary mods...

Finding the grind to 265 longer than I expected. Seems like people were doing it pretty fast, but it's taken me a ton of grinding PE's to get to the mid-250's. Feel like maybe I skipped something, but I don't know what. Maybe just bad luck with engrams.

I haven't noticed zoning helping any, but maybe not many people are actually showing up the PE's right now? The crappy part is unless there's a fast travel location nearby, it's incredibly hard to do multiple times. So the only real option is to bring your own firesquad and pray other people...

Yeah, every time I stop to take a look at my surroundings I'm kind of amazed. I know when I first got to Io I was waiting on my friend to do something else, and I just stopped and looked up to see Jupiter massive in the sky. It was kind of a "wow" moment. It's a shame they bungled the content...

Wow, that article really started off with a bad assumption. The US has incredibly fucking retarded priced home internet. We pay more and have crappier speeds than most other developed countries. "Reasonably-priced" my ass.

Take a hiking pole or find a place to rent a walking stick or something. That and some sort of water shoe is damn near a necessity. I think we got ours from the Zion Adventure Company in Springdale.

Hillary proves that sociopath politicians think they're above things like that. Check mate, Allied forces.

If there isn't rain in the forecast anywhere nearby, I strongly recommend doing the Narrows. Was one of the coolest hikes I've done (only recently supplanted as my favorite by one in Kauai). My wife isn't good with heights, so we started the Angel's Landing hike and ended up turning around...

Yeah, I don't know how they could make a PC so anti-social in 2017. But they managed to do it by stripping literally every possible feature they could from the game. Shit, I didn't even know I was accepted into a Clan with the rosters being broken, because there's absolutely nothing that lets...

Yes. You can say it's the best single back exercise you can do. Sure, I'll buy that. But is it really that much more beneficial than doing say, pullups, rows, and just about anything for hamstrings on leg day? Fuck, throw in some hip thrusts and you're probably hitting more than you would with...

You can still slip a disc with perfect form. And it only takes one error in form to fuck you up for life. Do you have 100% form on every lift you do, every single time? It's fine if you want to do deadlifts and think the risk is worthwhile. I just decided for myself that it's not. Outside of...

What about the zone token/coins or whatever (shit you get from random chests)? I read something about not turning those in; why not? It looks like all it does is increase faction for that NPC.

I can't figure out if I'm just paranoid because everyone is min/maxing, or if I actually need to. Unfortunately it's kind of ruining some of the fun of the game because I'm afraid I'll accept a quest reward when I wasn't supposed to, or complete a quest at the wrong power level. I just need...

That's how it was in beta though, and after the first day it seems like damn near everyone was doing it.

I've never been a fan of doing more than 5 rep sets on deadlift. It's too taxing on your entire system, which means your form breaks down the higher reps you do (which is a big reason I think Crossfitters doing deadlifts is the stupidest fucking thing you could do). That said, I don't even do...

Pretty bummed about the aim assist thing. Guess I won't even bother with PVP. I'm having major buyer's remorse on this one, but hopefully the PVE is fun enough to make it worthwhile. I should probably give the game a shot before writing it all off already, but you all really didn't sell this...

Holy shit, you increased your 3 lift total close to 100 pounds in 10 days? Man, to be a noob lifter again...

Thunder in California is fucking weird. Because almost everyone lives in some kind of valley, it sounds a lot louder than it would in the Midwest. But yeah, 5 years in California now and I think I've only heard thunder once or twice.

Is it actual auto aim, or the thing from the beta where you could "turn it on" with an attached controller? I mean, either way it's a retarded decision, but one is a little less retarded.

Why? Is anyone even watching this show anymore?

Got my preload finally going. Any word yet on what time servers are coming up? I'm not taking off work for this game, but more wondering if they'll be cleared up by the time I get home. Edit: NM, looks like 10am PDT.

Episode 3 I was laughing almost start to finish. I actually saw this play out in real life a few years ago in San Diego. Right hand turn lane, cop car in the front at a red light. Light turned green and there were several cars behind the cop, no one moving. The guy right behind the cop car...

So we just got back from 2 weeks in Kauai. Definitely the best vacation of my life. Normally after 2 weeks somewhere I'm ready to get home, but not this time. Absolutely love the island. We kept saying there were no "highlights" of the trip because every day was just fantastic. We did 5 hikes...

I don't do physics. I just know that adding mass, not necessarily muscle, does in fact have a correlation to increasing bench press. Maybe it's just got to do with cushioning the joints better. Fuck if I know. But I've been lifting for a decade and that's my conclusion. Why does body weight...

It's not "easy" but bodyweight has one of the biggest correlations to bench press. If I put on 20 pounds of just fat, my bench press would go up about 30 pounds.
