These Kids
(7am Pacific Time)

Client fixes
  • Added more data logging for matchmaking systems
  • Improved connectivity failure handling to reduce beaver (Kick To Orbit events) KTOs
  • Improved logging of player disconnections
  • Internal tools fixes to speed up our release process
  • Fixes to the roster system to allow us to tune the frequency of roster updates on Xbox One
  • Fixed a bug that allowed users to quick scope on some weapons
Server Fixes
  • Security fixes
  • Server performance improvements
  • Fixes to reduce the frequency of some KTOs
  • Better logging to help diagnose connectivity problems
  • Fixes to some Centipede errors that were exclusive to specific player characters
Bungie's support site explains that the patch will help them identify accounts hitting the Centipede bug and make it easier for Bungie to address the issue. They note that they'll continue investigating "all forms and causes" of the Centipede errors, though.

"While we canโ€™t provide an ETA for the resolution of your specific situation, we can tell you that we continue to make great strides toward improving player experience. Again, that isn't a guarantee that your particular situation has improved, but it is a promise that we are hard at work trying to make things better for players," the company said elsewhere on the site.

Destiny will go down for maintenance at 7 AM Pacific on Tuesday while Bungie applies patch 1.0.2.1. For the next several hours, you'll be unable to log into the game. If you're online at the time, you'll be kicked off. The exact duration of the maintenance is unknown but Bungie will probably make an announcement on their support Twitter account when servers are back to normal.

Tomorrow will also mark the start of the Iron Banner PvP event. During this event, players will be able to purchase new rewards for Lord Saladin.

In the Cloud
Busy night last night. First I got the 10 Blue Fusion Rifles, then I farmed the Night Fall for 200 Fusion Rifle kills to finish my Pocket Infitiny Bounty :blessed:

Then, like the bunch of schmucks we are, we decided to try the Raid at 10:00pm. 4 hours later, still couldnt beat Atheon and called it a night.

The Raid is dope as fukk though. For those who haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. You will die, frequently, even if it wasn't directly you dying. But the differences in the Raid verse the rest of the game are so good. 6 person co-op and you need errybody on the same damn page or you are screwed. Hoping to finish it off tonight.

Side note, so far I have not collected a single thing other than shards :mjcry:
Give me some armor or crazy weapons Vault of Glass!! :feedme:

COD was fun for a while too, but it got to a point where it was too easy. I'd go on 70+ game win streaks

destiny is going to have these balancing problems for it's entire existence, that's always the biggest challenge for MMO's and it's extremely hard to get right. Esp with loot with random stats and shyt. There's always gonna be some weapon that is better than everything else
I don't really care though.

The thing is with this game is to get your character powerful enough to do work. There's so much shyt that you can say is OP in the game that actually creates a crazy rock paper scissors aspect to how matches play out. Once you get to a certain point your character can wreck shyt... but at the same time, someone out there has the ability to shut you down.

This never set out to be the perfectly balanced game that the OG Halo games were anyway. As long as I'm having fun, I'm good.

I like the Bad JuJu (for those shytting on it)

It actually takes skill to do well with due to the small clip size. And I always challenge myself in most FPS games I play... so I've actually used it exclusively since I unlocked it. I beat the Weekly Night Fall last night with it, I've played plenty of Crucible with it, and I even got some matches in with it in the Iron Banner (won 2 out of 3 matches in there by the way)

I'm not sure how they intend on buffing it, but if they bump up the ammo from 15 to say... 21, it'll easily be OP as fukk. I think they may just bump it to 18 rounds though... which would make a hell of a difference. This gun truly gets better with the upgrades... and if you have the right armor on to outfit it, it's really fun to use. The reload is crazy fast, and if you throw on perk for increased reload speed it's even more ridiculous. Last night I got the upgrades unlocked for the range boost and the one that instantly reloads your gun after a kill

:banderas:

That might be the GOAT perk... and honestly that's also why this gun can go from one of the least used in Crucible to most used depending on what they do with the ammo count.

fun is definitely what matters, im just a hater at this point, if the community is still going strong I'll probably cop when it comes to PC

this what i've been saying...bad juju is nice, especially when you get to the 'string of curses' perk....

i agree about it being op if they add more ammo...you already have infinite ammo once you reach that perk....i'd be cool with them increasing the impact, but they need to leave the ammo clip alone....

I'm fine with them bumping it to 18... 21 would make it GODLY with that perk on

did a couple iron banner matches...yea, that shyt is a different world....you better be on your shyt and the first to draw.....also, all those complaining about pulse rifles, you aint got to worry about that there...those shyts dont really work in there cause it seems to take longer to fire....anyway, only thing i didnt like about the matches i ran was the maps i got....went moon, big ass mars map, moon again out the gate, and i hate those maps cause of the vehicles and turrents....after that, got the base on mars, so my night ended better....will be going back in it this week...

18 is a bit too much to me too....the gun works on every shield type, does good damage, and you already get unlimited ammo to kill shyt, giving people more bullets to kill shyt wouldnt be fair...
