Did you play IB last week?
I'm positive i got matched against you for 2 games (1 win, 1 loss)

I'll PM you but yes I did play it, on Xbox. Mainly Tuesday night, and sunday night (uk time).

What's your GT?

 

[Raven117]

Just had one of the smoothest Daughters and Oryx HM cm experiences with a group on destinylfg.net...huh, who knew?


We had more trouble with Daughters then Oryx cm. Did Daughters on third try and Oryx on second and first was a early wipe...

Everyone in the party was cool, calm the whole time with joking and laugher. Honestly, the experience was the anti lfg.net you always hear about. I was shocked.



Obviously we had a few disappointed folks with the rewards but hey, this is Destiny.

Yeah man, this can happen. Before I received my gaf account I used lfg a lot and I had some great groups. I also had some that were a complete waste of time.

 

[Namikaze1]

Doing daily if anyone wants to hop in for some marks.

Your success with LFG is all RNG. Just like destiny.

 

[Lnkn52]

Goodbye Destiny, I'm going to a new world now.*

Spoiler

*In June 2016

you streaming this new world?

 

[WeTeHa]

I could start hosting these if there is still a demand.
I have been pretty bored of Destiny lately, but don't mind helping people get there flawless raiders.

If you do these and have a spot open, I'd love to join you.

I need the Clan Raider, too. So yeah, point me to your clan page so I can join once you have this set up and ready to go. Think I need the Clan Strike, too.

Same here.

the lack of matchmaking for nightfalls is really dumb at this point

 

[willow ve]

the lack of matchmaking for nightfalls is really dumb at this point

The lack of matchmaking for anything outside raids is really dumb. And I would argue even raids need that option.

 

[Deku Tree]

Dear Xur,

When are you gonna sell Twilight Garrison?

Thx, Deku

 

[Subtervotion]

Nightfalls need mm. No question.

Raids... sort of. I don't think they could have just straight up mm. Maybe if you got a team of 3 together first, it'll match you with 3. Maybe if you completed the raid 5 - 10 times it'll let you mm. Maybe an in game lfg. Idk. But it should have something. Bare minimum it should have an in game lf call sign on everyone's name.

 

[deadduck]

Dear Xur,

When are you gonna sell Twilight Garrison?

Thx, Deku

100SC later I still don't have that.

 

[Xeroblade]

As of now besides getting people to raid with, are lvl 41 strikes the best way to get loot or is crucible?

 

[Deku Tree]

100SC later I still don't have that.

I had six chest engrams in my vault, and I decrypted all of them on my Titan, and I still don't have it. That's why I decided to stop popping 3oC.

 

[Robdraggoo]

Ever since i started using doctrine of passing in crucible i started noticing how annoying and how much a hinderance aim assist is.
Ill be firing in at a guy to have someone else cross the path taking my cross airs with him. Taking my kill and getting me killed in the process.

 

[Frenden]

Playing other games until Destiny endgame is more like Year 1 than Year 2. I miss Y1 raiding a lot.

Me too, dude.

 

[Tragicomedy]

I'm also up for the flawless and clan raider achievements.

 

[TheAquaticApe]

Me too, dude.

 

[JohnOfMars]

I'm probably done with Tuesday raiding after this week. Been done with Nightfalls since Week 2. Irno Banner is hard to get excited for, since I don't care for 6s too much.

But I think I'll stick around for Trials if people will have me. Will you be on tonight, Ape? I have a Challenge Mode to do, but other than that, I'm available. For cards or bounties.

 

[Raven117]

Pretty much. You can usually tell within the first 30 seconds of joining chat whether the group will be a good group or not.

 

[Shiv47]

I need the flawless and clan raid trophies, but also the salvage one. Trying to get this with randoms has been rather difficult so far. Anyone else need it and want to team up? I've gotten one relic in six or seven matches, so I'd love some help.

I'm doing my usual run with Nami and Shock City Todd. If I decide to do more after I'll post up! It was fun playing with you last time. Maybe we can get a ringer to ensure your first Y2 flawless.

 

[rasengan1337]

it makes me a little melancholy to ponder the state of the game at the moment. Fallout 4, as fun as it is, just doesn't have good shooting mechanics (at least, relative to Destiny). I'm hoping that there will be groups to continue doing challenge modes at least, until the drip-feed turns back into a spigot/flood with news of the latest content release.

you know you don't need to actually capture the relic, right? all you have to do is actually initialize it.

 

[JohnOfMars]

Pretty much. You can usually tell within the first 30 seconds of joining chat whether the group will be a good group or not.

The true test of an LFG group was Year 1 trying to decide if you were going to use a Heavy Synth after your 5th wipe on Crota. Before the Heavy Ammo glitch was fixed and Bungie didn't even deign to have Xur sell Heavy Ammo synths every week as a stopgap.

 

[embalm]

Do 3 of Coins have a timer? Does the buff to drops go away after you beat a match or kill an Ultra?

I'll be trying them out for the first time tonight.

 

[FyreWulff]

I'll be trying them out for the first time tonight.

3 of coins lasts until you kill an Ultra or complete a Crucible match.

There's an invisible cooldown where killing another Ultra or completing a match really fast will have a reduced buff.

Generally you should use a coin for every third match or Strike boss.

Do not use more than one at a time.

Oh. Where did this news come from?

 

[Shiv47]

Really? The language is unclear on the trophy then, I assumed "capturing" a relic meant actually claiming it through the whole sequence.

 

[Namikaze1]

Don't expect anything big. First event of the year was said to be similar to Festival of the Lost event. It's the event after a lot of us are looking forward to.

The Division, Dark Soul 3, Uncharted, and No Man's Sky will hold me over until Destiny 2. It is a great time to be a gamer. January is a slow month but February will create a streak of great games.

I still need to play bo3, fallout 4, Wolfestein & the DLC, batman Arkham, the order, and ds2. Then I want to play UCC, UC4, and DS3. Will wait for reviews on NMS.

 

[Truelize]

Infusion comment:

Before TTK came out I assumed that when infusing weapons we were going to be able to choose to keep perks from the gun that was being broken down.

 

[JohnOfMars]

Witcher 3, Journey are the two at the top of my list that I already own. I'd like to get Arkham Knight & Legacy of the Void.

And I'm always off and on playing Diablo 3. It's so good. I hope Destiny one day gets to this level of awesomeness and developer love.

But that's all yesteryear. This year, No Man's Sky! The Witness!

 

[Atone13]

Hey DestinyGAF long time no see I finally upgraded to TK just before the holiday, but still haven't had much time in game. Just popped in to do some crucible and maybe get lucky and found this mayhem clash on the front page, gotta say im having a lot of fun with this lol. Looks like the fatigue is setting in pretty good which is sad, but hopefully I'm around when some new stuff starts drawing people back.

What was the consensus around here of the new raid? You guys enjoy it? I'm no where close to worrying about a group for yet, but if it's really worth getting into a couple times I might work for it a bit. Anyway, glad to be back, hope you're all well.

 

[Darknyss09]

Oh. Where did this news come from?

Bungie tweet from yesterday.

https://twitter.com/bungie/status/685241676835627008

The Bungie Weekly Update will return on 1/21. Not a major reveal, but a preview of our February Update. More to come...

 

[Xeroblade]

So we get nothing for the next few weeks? No Trials or IB?

 

[Robdraggoo]

Is there another destiny tournament today?
Thought i heard triple talking about it this morning.

 

[Darknyss09]

I still need to play bo3, fallout 4, Wolfestein & the DLC, batman Arkham, the order, and ds2. Then I want to play UCC, UC4, and DS3. Will wait for reviews on NMS.

Destiny completely killed by enjoyment of FO4. The gunplay (I know it's a different type of FPS, but still) and inventory management made it more of a hassle than fun.

I loved FO3 so maybe I'll give it another try. There isn't anything happening in Destiny for awhile anyway. I'll need to train my brain not to play it like a shooter lol.

Um uh... We'll get a new emblem on 1/12!!!!

Outside of that, Trials will still happen each weekend and probably another IB before the next update. But until then, enjoy the freedom!

I liked it for awhile. Probably played about 12 hours before i got bored. Destiny has made me a lazy gamer.

Although 2016 looks promising for me.
Uncharted 4
No mans sky
Last guardian
Zelda
Ni no kuni 2

Top the list. Will this be enough to finally break me from Destiny?

We shall see

 

[JohnOfMars]

(don't worry. I won't get the hard mode helmet tonight, so I'll keep raiding.)

 

[LTWood12]

We need a Luke Smith post

 

[Robdraggoo]

We need a Luke Smith post

Tell us everything is going to be ok other luke. Tell us!

 

[JohnOfMars]

We need a Luke Smith post

He posted his top games of 2015 over at Giant Bomb.

He looks so happy now that he shipped Taken King. Per twitter, he's back to working on longterm Destiny stuff.

 

[Dahellisdat]

So the sleeper simulant quest level appeared for me today....anyone else get this?

The first firewall? Do I have to finish this today or will it disappear again?
