Amusing that every blue the cryptarch gives me is for my main class (the guy who I am playing when I visit the cryptarch) and yet the one legendary he has decoded for me is for Titan. I think something is screwy in their algorithm

The first mission on the Moon when you get to the big doors that all the mobs spew out of. There is a checkpoint right before the doors open so you open the doors, kill the thralls that spill out and then die. Restart from the checkpoint and repeat ad nauseum.

LFR not coming until after the free month is over? How quaint. That is either a genius way to ensure that returning players re-up their subscriptions or the dumbest marketing move of all time.

The problem with WoW and its murderhobos is that there really is no Horde vs Alliance in the actual story. Sure each expansion you hear about some offscreen atrocity that took place involving someone's injun joe trading post or a lumber mill, but all the real enemies to date were killed by the...

Well I had all four friends I had been playing with give up on the game this evening. Three of them were doing the Weekly Strike together and after slogging away at it for what was apparently a few hours they won and got nothing and promptly tossed the game. Ive been inundated with texts about...

I keep hoping I might see one Legendary piece...

There seems to be something wrong with the engram algorithm. Out of 15 blue engrams I've gotten green or notes of light from 10 of them, nice augment mats from 3 and only two have resulted in actual blue items... And why the hell is PVP rewarding loot at a much greater rate than the Strikes?!

The two I got the Xbone version to play with have at least been very good about playing so that's a relief. Explaining to the one MMO-newb how the notion of Light levels works post 20 was an exercise in maximum frustration. He just did not get the concept at all nor the concept of tiered...

I just got to 20 with my Sunsinger Warlock last night and am now beginning to start the grind for Marks and Reputation on Xbone if anyone wants a partner.

Same deal here, especially weird given that the Awoken have a different voice actor so you would think they'd give that actor a different script to reflect the fact.

Anyone else get the impression we shouldn't have been able to make Awoken or Exo player characters until later but they changed their mind for player appearance diversity?

Interestingly I was thinking about this and noted on launch day that I had all the emblems but neither of the shaders. I double checked my code listing on the website and they show as active...but no where to be found.

I like the subclasses and the ideas of them... but they are essentially a separate class that you unlock when your first character hits 15. If you switch that character to the new subclass you have NOTHING in terms of abilities and have to level up quite a bit to even unlock your melee attack...

I think they tweaked a setting. I saw three public events this AM in about an hour. Of course people have played without them up till now so everyone else around just ignored them. Serious failure of game design to have them nonexistent for the launch. How they handled subclass pisses me off.

Its just part of the random matchmaking. Had it happen to us once when we queued up and ended up popping in at the last boss.

While assembling supplies for home improvement last month I noticed that the sign at Home Depot actually read 2" x 4" and commented as such to my buddy. A better solution would be for Americans to stop measuring things by the furlong per fortnight and actually employ real units of measurement.

Playing with real life friends and tackling all the content on Hard makes the game quite challenging and super fun. The boss at the end of the Moon Strike was tough until we figured out the strategy and then farmed him several times to get full suits of blue.

In anyone else cares Crispin Freeman is the name of the Male Awoken voice actor. He also did Roy Harper / Red Arrow / Arsenal on Young Justice. It was driving me crazy because I recognized the voice, just not from where.

I'm not quite sure what Bungie has in mind for solidifying the social network necessary for Heroic Strikes and such. Trying to communicate "hey, would you like to go do a really hard dungeon" with a combination of point dance and sit is pretty challenging. I suppose that is why they have...

The only Scots I know personally are very much pro independence and have been talking about it for the last year fairly steadily. I too wondered why this hadn't gotten a lot more press as it seemed like a pretty damn significant thing. Not the least of which due to our close governmental ties...

Sadly this is probably very much the case. Granted this is because both Book 3 and 4 are part of "season" 2 for the purposes of standard contracts and the pick-up order that was issued following Book 2 (which was itself technically picking up the back half of the first season). That having...

Well they did say the work was mostly done... Guess they werent kidding.

Yeah I noticed at Target instead of the usual locked up vidjamagames or maybe an endcap near the checkout register with some copies of Madden they had 3-4 cardboard towers full of Destiny sitting at different locations within the store.

I have to hope that they have a pretty epic storyline mapped out. I mean you seen evidence of it here and there in a "nothing is quite as it seems" sort of way, especially with how you interact with some of the NPC factions. Then again maybe the Darkness really is just Ming the Merciless and...

So this AM I was screwing around in the Cosmodrome Patrol and found yet another area I had no idea that existed full of ?? Hive. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I really enjoy finding secret hideyholes like that.

I dunno. I look at No Mans Sky and see Spore the Next Generation. Lots of conceptual promise that I fear will turn into lackluster gameplay

So my roommate tried the game after having avoided the alpha and beta (and after seeing comments today dissing on the game) and promptly managed to disenchant his first weapon upgrade rather than equip it.

I have no idea what is causing people to go so negative on the game. It's the same game I enjoyed in Alpha and Beta and I'm still enjoying it, playing with friends and taking on the hard versions of story missions with crap gear and laughing our asses off when we fail.

I'm playing on both Xbone and PS4 (yeah I'm retarded) and PS4 does look better...

I noticed already they had a bit more variety in the Patrol missions. Also I thought from alpha and beta I knew the Cosmodrome like the back of my hand yet I had patrols that sent me to well hidden places I had walked right past before. Wish they would add a numeric representation of weapon...

I must be too old to appreciate streaming. I really don't see the attraction

I feel confident our characters will persist through the Destiny releases and either carry over (since its all server side) from title to title or they will just continually update Destiny with annual major updates and then periodic content packs ala WoW, but with DLC costs replacing monthly fee.

Ghost 360 is currently available at Amazon. With the free upgrade to Xbone offer you can get your Ghost on and still play on Xbone.

Due to overwhelming peer pressure I'm now getting the PS4 version as well (or again since that was my original order). The worst part of the console wars is having people on either side who you don't want to disappoint. Anywho on PSN I'm "Qhue".

I kinda wonder if they will have the Ghost available for sale on the Bungie store sometime after the release. I really do want one of those little dudes.

Im kind of surprised that Activision hasn't put a Warlords of Draenor pre-order bonus doo-dad onto Destiny, or thrown in the Ghost or one of the Guardians into Heroes of the Storm. I suppose they really are trying to keep the Blizzard brand distinct from the Activision brand in case they ever...

I went to Target with a buddy to do the trade-in promotion thing listed above and there was significant confusion on their part. Despite the game being one of the one's listed as a guaranteed $20 value it came up as $10.93 and there was no indication at all of the Destiny promotion. I showed...

What is it with the greater rifts that are one single long hallway? Did one at max level that I am capable of and when I died on the rift guardian it took over 7 minutes of walking to get back.

Hah! Destiny Fragrance
