Crucible anyone? Rift is fun but not with randoms.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

True torture indeed.

When are we supposed to get our cat emblem and black sparrows?

hey you're back! hope you won't rage uninstall Destiny this time

VIP stuff on 15th most likely

Wha? When did I do such a thing?

edit: Oh you talking about my meltdown over the warlocks jump? Fuck that shit maaaan.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Why is mayhem not available?

it unlocks on 11/09, in 2 days.

 

[igordennis]

Pretty sure. Need to test it a bit more.

No way man, no way. Anyone can confirm?

 

[Juraash]

That sucks haha.

And yea I received rep at the end, got radiant light buff. No blue flames though.

Thank you! The rep thing was my biggest concern. I'd have to relevel vanguard between now and TTK of I do nightfall on my Warlock. But I might still just do it.

30 minute impressions:

TLW got hit baaaad but using perfect balance is like eating ice cream after a break up
Thorn's range sucks but otherwise the same
Sector 618 is confusing but cool concept
Thieve's Den is trash in Rift - shocker
Blink Shotgun hasn't changed, although maybe it depends on the shotgun being used
lol at Arcbolt. Can walk right through it.
Bannerfall best map in the game BAR NONE

As for Rift.... i think it's too hectic right now. Half the time I don't even know it's being scored and i'm off on the other side of the map doing something. I dunno, doesn't feel like i'm playing an objective game yet. Also, the Mercy rule means most games just end really quickly.

Other general impression is that Crucible feels "balanced" and smoother.

u lucky played like 20 games didnt get bannerfall once...:/

MERCY AGAIN

BUNGIE PLS

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Wha? When did I do such a thing?

lol...about 5-6 weeks ago, when you couldn't make the gorgon chest with the warlock jump


were you just lying about uninstalling Destiny?

 

[Kalamari]

MERCY AGAIN

BUNGIE PLS

Try playing without snipers lol

 

[Kyne]

will preordering now get you the new preorder bonus stuff instantly?

 

[R0ckman]

I dont like the Mercy rule.

 

[lt519]

MERCY AGAIN

BUNGIE PLS

Stop being good? Sounds like a you problem sounds like they should just disable it on rift as a quick solution

 

[Namikaze1]

Yeah, Mercy Rule is just not working well for Rift. Games are ending far too quick due to Rift Dunks giving a shit ton of points.

 

[Twilight Gap]

Stop being good? Sounds like a you problem

I've actually been at the bottom of the scoreboard every game

 

[Lunar FC]

lol...about 5-6 weeks ago, when you couldn't make the gorgon chest with the warlock jump


were you just lying about uninstalling Destiny?

I didn't uninstall, just had to take some time away to get my mind right after to that hot piece of fucking dog shit jump.

 

[neoism]

Momento is like really really bad. Way too tightly packed.

yup one of destiny worst by far...

still hate the cauldron more though..

 

[EroticSushi]

MERCY AGAIN

BUNGIE PLS

"It's working as intended."

 

[Twilight Gap]

yup one of destiny worst by far...

still hate the cauldron more though..

no way Cauldron shits all over memento

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

I didn't uninstall, just had to take some time away to get my mind right after to that hot piece of fucking dog shit jump.

ah okay, glad you have recovered

From a Senior Crucible designer:

Quick Rift note: Unfamiliarity with the mode + large objective scores will likely trigger Mercy Rule games more easily in in the short term

 

[neoism]

Is it me, or is the UI crisper and more clear?

nope really like what they did every thing has a more bolder look the numbers and letters are just easier to see.. even the maps on the galaxy map look better...

 

[xVaalbarAx]

Im down to do whatever. I want to play some PVP!

 

[saveweyard]

No way man, no way. Anyone can confirm?

Shooting some more it seems to track somewhat, but it's definitely nerfed.

 

[Lnkn52]

Void Walker is a great class for Rift, for either runner or bodyguard.

 

[neoism]

And these are the $20 emotes?

horse armor 2.0

 

[Jblanks]

Thank you! The rep thing was my biggest concern. I'd have to relevel vanguard between now and TTK of I do nightfall on my Warlock. But I might still just do it.

Np !

 

[ChanMan]

Okay so I have the vanilla version of Destiny and just did a Strike I never did before. I guess we have access to all DLC strike now even though I haven't bought House of Wolves and Dark Below,

 

[everyday math]

So I'm playing Defender Titan for the first time ever. And what a fun class. ^_^

 

[Fonz72]

Anyone up for doing the fireteam bounties in crucible?

Fonz72 PSN

 

[FyreWulff]

[Namikaze1]

Oh shit. Just noticed the time. Yeah. Off to sleep. Thanks for the games, guys.

[EroticSushi]

Fun run on Rift. Think we knocked out 13 matches in around an hour.

 

[xplicitone]

So yea, shotguns still wreck in PvP. Boo!

 

[Twilight Gap]

had enough of rift. bleh

Stream's still up. playing Skirmish on the new maps now.

 

[Raybunny]

Today its the day! Can't wait to return from work.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

so I did the sunsinger side quest and got the level 40 bond. Is there a voidwalker one too?

 

[Namikaze1]

Fun run on Rift. Think we knocked out 13 matches in around an hour.

And only one was a full match.

Loving the dunk animations. Especially the one you do when walking backwards.

 

[sikkinixx]

So yea, shotguns still wreck in PvP. Boo!

Yeah and blow in pVe. Thanks bungie.

 

[Lunar FC]

ah okay, glad you have recovered

I can say I'm a changed man. No danger to society, that's the God's honest truth. Absolutely rehabilitated.

 

[Rainmaker]

Really sucks i cant wear the class item i want. I like tge no towel look on my titan. bummer

Yeah. This is stressing me out way more than it should be. haha. It's kind of a dumb idea. It should be cosmetic.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Really sucks i cant wear the class item i want. I like tge no towel look on my titan. bummer

i think part of the problem is none of the TTK items are in the wild. it feels weird right now because you are forced to wear like 2 things because of light level.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

so I did the sunsinger side quest and got the level 40 bond. Is there a voidwalker one too?

Yeah

 

[equil]

Anyone else randomly have their equipped weapons fully leveled up?

 

[Kadey]

So I uhhh got another uhh....

 

[Twilight Gap]

Memento in Skirmish is a snooze fest. Wow this map is waaaaaay too big.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Yeah

how do you get it to show up?

 

[NeOak]

wow, i'm missing Dinklebot like I knew I would.

;-;

Nolan killed the "We've woken the Hive" and "A CELL! FROM THE PRISON OF ELDERS!" lines.

And i'm hating the "Guardian Down" lines.
