Got carried in D1, d2 manged to win one game so at least saw some of the new area. #jobdone

It would be cool if the lighthouse was the new social space in the dlc.

Are bungie going to do any live streams before the dlc comes out?

That's what's happening apparently.

Yeah, certainly some streams in November, think I heard three mentioned on a podcast as the weekend but could be wrong in that.

Falloutplays on high calibre rounds..... Not as big a difference as people scream about based on that video.

Not really, Bungie have done maintenance on Destiny on Thursday multiple times. Glad to see the patch out during the maintenance period instead of immediately afterwards for once though.

Better than the dreaded Tuesday reset maintenance.

Game is super buggy last night and tonight, did the challenge mode and did not get the rewards last night. Was in the gardens with the dogs and one of the members still had the buff from the baths lol and we were only getting 7 buffs from the flowers from 4 people.

Prestige seemed harder tonight (to me anyway) for some reason, hope they did not stealth buff the ads or some ****.....

We were getting PSION protection bubbles over the plates at calus. On the dps phase.

Wonda-Boy

Thats a new one to me :eek:

Tazzimus

Psion bubbles, ? symbols where my element type should have been on my guns, Johnny getting pulled through the barrier on the right again, ads teleporting around the place like they're in GOT..

Dunno what they're patching, but it's not the raid bugs anyway.

Generic Dreadhead

Don't remember any of the D1 Raids having this volume, variety and consistency of bugs tbh

Makes Prestige even less appealing, thats some feat.

Easier to just do a Nightfall for that.

Mitch Connor

Surely if you really want to do prestige, but only for platinum, you will wait til december 10th or something when you are at 330 light and give it a go. Should be easier then from a damage point of view at least.

I'd like to get it completed, just cause I am a destiny addict but i've no desire to really get in to it.

Also, I really need to do that Arms Dealer strike and stuff to get the exotic shotgun. 17 of 19 weapons. that and the tractor cannon are the ones I am missing.

You could cheese templar for pretty much all of D1, could cheese Atheon for a while. Could cheese Crota for a while, also had bugs of him getting up early and teleporting etc. (was actually just lag IMO). Could cheese the bridge in CE also.

CE and VoG were very buggy, didn't play the other raids much so can't comment.

Trials back tonight?

Generic Dreadhead

There's a difference between exploiting a mechanic to cheese the encounter as opposed to having bugs happening that stop you completing the encounter though. You could still do all those encounters "legit" and have no issues. They were not glitches, they were exploits.

YEDIT: Trials is back on Now due to Daylight Savings Time

It's even easier to DDOS on PC than on console. I dread to think what its like.

Was watching some streams, it looks a different game. So much faster. Do much more reflex based.

The game on PC is a joy to behold, looks truly stunning.

As for the headaches the PvP will bring thats another kettle of sardines.

Had shesnaps on for a bit last night cause she was the bungie bounty - she was having huge difficulty with playing on xbox after pc.

The only reason I am glad I can't afford the PC rig I'd want for destiny.

Do pc get the PS exclusive stuff?
As in is it console exclusive or proper PS4 only.

Don't think it has been said.

I've actually never played the arms dealer one, never seems to come up for me.

Lads in work are at me to get this on the pc but I'm just trying to will myself into it, slog of the campaign again is what's stopping me for now
