Official Destiny Thread [RISE OF IRON OUT NOW!]

[Luck]

Finished the story missions for the vanilla campaign and house of wolves and the dark below.


I can see why reviews were not that good and a lot of people were pissed.

The game play is great but man,game just leaves so much potential on the table.

The story is nonsensical. I have no idea what's going on. The missions are basically all the same,it's very reptitive. I didn't even realize I finished the last mission until I looked it up online after it was so anti-climatic.

That said I started taken king and the improvement is very noticeable. The missions seem a little more interesting. There's actual scenes and I can follow what's happening. It's disappointin the taken are just reskinned versions of other enemies.

Haven't dabbled in too much other stuff yet. Did the first arena. Tried the 2nd one but too under powered right now.

Was there a reason bungie gave why some stuff has matchmaking and others don't?


I gotta say the division campaign>>>>>>>destiny and it's not even close.

I agree with most of this but gameplay over everything because that has longevity. There's a reason why I've been playin this almost exclusively for the past 2 years because theirs so much to do gameplay wise as far as builds and experimenting if you're that time of gamer. If a person just goes with the "best" weapons and builds then this game, like most will bore you quick. This is basically for a borderlands type of cat.

But to your point about matchmaking the the division is a perfect example of why matchmaking would never work for raids. The shyt is terrible for something that requires coordination and communication, most nikkas don't even play with mics like that but nightfalls and simple shyt should have matchmaking

Yeah I mean even with all my complaints I have a hard time putting the controller down because the moment to moment gameplay is fun as fukk. Definitely better than division on that front.

I LOVED the division campaign. But the dark zone is trash,the end game is trash,and the post launch support has been a disaster. They kind of painted themselves in a corner by having such an isolated environment snowy new York with human enemies while trying to make a grindy mmo loot gear game. Where your weapons and everything all looks the same and the only thing changing is arbitrary numbers.


So destiny for me has been kind of nice seeing all those different environments and alien enemies which definitely lends itself far better to this style of game.

I really feel like there is a shyt ton of potential here that they can really nail with a sequel.


And yeah I get the matchmaking thing with the raids. But having matching making for that first arena and not the next 3 makes no sense.


Truth be told I haven't even touched the pvp stuff yet so I'm happy I didn't skip destiny altogether and finally pulled the trigger on this collection because I'm gonna get my money's worth.

that's why destiny has been going strong despite all the complaints....bungie got the most important thing right: the game play is fun as fukk...the rest of the shyt (story, toughness of the grind, etc.) could always be improved on (which they've done), but game play is the foundation and that had to be right...if that isnt right, the rest of the shyt doesnt matter...

as for no matchmaking in the arenas: you gotta remember at the time, those shyts were harder than they are now (especially the 3rd 1 where you fought the kell of kells)...and bungie was trying to get people to meet others and play together like for raids, nightfalls, etc. with it...i think now, it'd be ok to have matchmaking for it...just like i think cause of the changes, i think matchmaking for nightfalls would be cool too....but no to matchmaking for raids....

with so much stuff to do in the game now, you def will get more than your money's worth....enjoy and welcome guardian...

after searching forever, finally found a group that would accept my 360+ light guardian and finally got into the raid last night...that shyt is fun as hell....i like how it is a mix of all the raids so far in the game and you have to work together as a team.....also, like how it's very rewarding...anyway, we were able to finish that shyt relatively easy....surprised the shyt outta the cats in the group that had done it before because 2 of us (myself included) hadnt done the raid and didnt know the mechanics....but i like told them: i'm a fukking gamer, just tell me what i need to do, and i'll get her done....we knocked out everything the 1st time except for phase 2 of the last boss....and even that only took 3 times (the first was cause someone fukked up the pillars)...got my outbreak prime quest and everything....all i gotta do is run the raid again to get it, which i should do tonight with the same cats...

side note: those cats were cool as fukk...they took the time to explain the mechanics to us and showed us where everything (chests, clusters, monitors) was at...it's people like that, that make the game fun as hell...glad i found them on lfg....cause i was ready to say fukk it reading some of the bullshyt requirements people asked for on there, my god....i read some of those and just laughed cause i've probably completed 3x more raids than a lot of them (220+ & counting), but cause i didnt grind my ll to 370+, a lot of them wouldnt let me run with them, smh....anyway, fukk them, found some cool cats, now i'll be able to help people get through it....

[Boolean]

Hard Mode was cake I liked the subtle changes tho

 

[Tha Gawd Amen]

Hard mode wasn't that hard. Can't expect much from a rushed DLC. Time to say deuces to Destiny it was a good run

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

Haven't touched this shyt since the day after I bought it 2 years ago.
