Is there some trick to the 25 K/D spread? I can manage a 1.0-1.2 KDR if I actually try but it seems like it would take a very long time to complete. I just got the bounty again on my hunter and haven't shitcanned it (or done the 5 strikes) yet.

Thanks! Now that strikes arent completely worthless maybe I will just bite the bullet and slog through it.

i don't know exactly how that one works but its not 25 K/d spread, its like 25 more kills than deaths (maybe that means the same thing I dunno but its not 25:1 K/D ratio). I am the WORST in pvp but i got that one after about 5-6 games. I suggest playing control, playing extremely defensively, crouching all the time, and generally squatting a map point waiting for people to come in and die. Also vehicles are great with it. It carries over from game to game so don't have to do it all in one game. Playing very defensively is key though, if I saw more than 1 enemy I always just booked it. It does count assists so just sticking with a big group and getting a few shots in is good enough.
I found the one that required void kills to be much harder/longer since it took forever, like 15+ games for me.
You dont have to do it all in one game.
It takes the medium of it for points. For example if you got 10 and 6. It will give you 4 points.
Just play control, and throw grenades. Don't have to play the map itself

Yeah, I know it's just 25 more kills than deaths and not something absurd like 25 KDR. Still seemed like it would take a long time, but I guess I will give it a shot. I know the gun is garbage, and I hate shotguns in general, but Column is right that the ammo regen would be useful until I finally get an Ice Breaker. This game can be extremely stingy with ammo drops, so much so that I actually find Juggler to be a perk rather than an extra challenge, because you can sort of force it to give you the ammo you need.
FYI if you need gear go do strikes right now. They are dropping blue engrams like crazy, which will give you coins a lot of the times.

It also takes in to account assists as well. I just sat back in control, grabbed some kills and assists, and camped a lot if I had a good ratio. Took about four matches or so.
It sounds like we'll have :

At the least around 4pm CST. No response from fourth yet, I think Lost was saying 5 CST for him.
Vorph come join my fireteam and finish this asshole boss and I'll help PVP, hah

I just texted thefourth. He told me he will be online at 5cst, and he will contact doom.
My wife, and I are going over to his house tonight anyway, to do some drinking.
I'm sure his wife is going to be pleased when he locks himself in his rec room the whole time heh

I'm on PS3 because I refuse to buy a PS4 until they put DLNA back into the system.
That's actually the one thing that is ruining the game for me more than the loot. Not making at least PVE cross-gen was a colossal fuck up on their part.

Did they stealth-remove the free ammo when completely out thing today? I'm in the 28 heroic weekly solo right now, and I ran out of ammo on the stupid tank boss. I killed him and have been sitting outside the final area for like 5 minutes and I'm still at 0/0/0. AFAIK that was only disabled for nightfall previously, and I know for a fact it worked in the 26 heroic two weeks ago when it was Phogoth.

No clue man I ran out of ammo twice yesterday when doing the Nightfall and weekly heroic. During the Nightfall I think I saw exactly ZERO ammo boxes drop, it was insanely annoying. Pretty sure my game was bugged.
Those have Juggler enabled. You won't get ammo drops for your equipped weapon so you need to be constantly swapping weapons. If your teammate is doing all the kills it will trigger off what weapon he is using it seems like.
Translation: get kills yourself, constantly swap weapons early on.

Fucking kids stole my TV.

The beta showed some portions of the game where we got a glimpse of what was to come. The gameplay and mechanics are there. No one denies that. It was a straight up shooter with decent control. What was not expected was the piss poor story line (Even though we all made fun of the horrible dinklage acting job) horrible RNG loot system, bosses where the difficulty ramping isn't new abilities for the boss but more hit points, a limited communication system, and what we now know as cut content to repackage as DLC and sell it, gutting the entire world that we could play in and actually understand from day 1.
Destiny has a story which has been cut to bits to repackage and it shows. It was a game sold on it's immersive world and it's a flat, boring, repetitive lazy designed mess with encounters that are stale after the 1st 3 times you do them, much less the same exact story mission types throughout the entire process. No one should defend this title one bit. No one. It has failed on just about everything aside from shit we already have had for the last 10 years in countless other games, which is a fluid gunplay mechanic and PvP. This is a shell of a game that was launched. Quite honestly it is sickening to think anyone would defend it. We had good gameplay mechanics in FPS games countless times. The world is stale, the maps all repeat, the story is completely gutted, the loot system is all kinds of horrible, the weapons themselves upon acquiring show no differentiation, the mission type is the same throughout, most of the class abilities and upgrades are just as stale without any graphical differentiation upon use, and the endless grind serves no purpose other than to beat your head against a wall.
Knowing what I know now, and seeing that "Wait until you play it. Don't trust the review" crap we saw from Bungie, and the aftermath with the reddit posts about the major changes all to cut content and sell it on DLC in the most fail of way via Activision, it's pretty apparent they were all in this scam. So I would say no. This isn't what we expected when we were playing a limited 8 level alpha/beta to test the servers and showcase the combat responsiveness and mechanics based on what we saw in 2013.
Can it be a good game in a year? Who knows. The game by itself, not a chance. A year from now I am sure their intention, if they don't have everyone trade it into Gamestop by the 8th, would be to continue to sell content that was already created to piece meal the story together so the game effectively costs about $120 by the time it is all said and done.
As far as I am concerned, this is an all new low in console gaming where at one point, I thought this shit only happened with very bad PC publishers. Something akin and even worse than Mafia 2 when they cut out the storyline when Tommy was in jail (Joe's adventures, originally was in the main game) and the entire open world portion sold as DLC as well.
Pretty damn ridiculous.
Then I buy Middle Earth, and my hope is renewed. Very happy to say we have games we can trade this in for.
Sorry Vorph just wanted to respond. I won't clutter it up anymore for people trying to plan raids and such. Carry on.
