There's an Ultra Rare medal for starting a PvP match as a team of 5, which kinda says it all

An alarm probably sounded in the devs office

Imagine what would happen if we platinum it :eek:

I'm now at a point where I don't know whether I want to play Destiny (Iron Banner) or Overwatch tomorrow night.... Shows what a couple of decent performances in a game can do to my mental state!

Tomorrow can be overwatch day, wednesday is battleborn, thursday is DOOM.

Was planning to jump on OW last night at 9, then 9 became 10, 10 became 11 and so on until I went to bed at 1am. Darkest Dungeon very much had me in a "Just one more Turn" grasp.

Not gonna plan to be online for any games this week due to moving house (officially) on Friday

So give someone else my Battleborn spot if I'm not on at a reasonable time

When we are dealing with Cork time then nothing is reasonable........ the tobbasco incident should have proven that :pac:

Mitch Connor · 16-01-2017 11:18AM

OG Generic would have been squating in an empty house with just a TV, a pillow and a wireless hotspot to ensure he was on for game time.

That Generic was a guy you could rely on, that Generic was cool....

I have been frequently on time recently, I'll have you know, thank you very much :pac:

Might have to release an official statement to the Battleborn Twitch community, they'll probably notice the plummeting viewing figures Wed (if I can't get on)

I have internet in 2 houses now though.
Last time I moved it was cause I was waiting for internet in my new place :P
I also had a blanket, PS4 and some pi$$y Carlsberg. Notions!

Mitch Connor · 16-01-2017 11:31AM

You setting up a Battleborn Twitch studio in the new place? You know, go proper legit on your path the to the top.

You could always tell your missus that you need to see if its secure enough for sleeping (You know so she feels safe etc) so you will stay there on your own on Wednesday to ensure her safety :pac:

Ah its ok I'll stream it and get double your viewers :P

Mitch Connor · 16-01-2017 12:42PM

Anyone ever done a podcast?

I listen to a load of Destiny stuff (Crucible Radio, Planet Destiny, Destiny Community Podcast - maybe Guardian Radio and Destiny Resest if i've run out of pods to listen to in the gym). Also a couple of IGN gaming podcasts.

From the destiny ones I think PD, CR and DCP are very good, but the amount of times I wish I could shout at them for wrong info, or just cause I think their opinion is wrong.

Also always thought a podcast done as a more chat focused cast, while playing Crucible, would be a good laugh. Something more informal and adding the ability to have a laugh at plays during the podcast - but you'd lose that one an audio only cast. One of the podcasts I was listening to last week mentioned doing something similar - Chats of Osiris or something like that they are calling it.

I'm not sugessting to start one up - (its a crowed market place for them, i don't have the charisma to engage an audience nor do I have the gun skill to make up for it!) but its something that has interested me for a year or so - and I felt like typing something out and posting it. Always thought chatting about Raid opinions, opinions on game modes, gun types, lore chat and Destiny 2 would be good fun.

and that last turn ends up being 3 madman and a shaman who drive up your stress causing your healer to become abusive in turn turning your poor crusader into a stressed wreck who dies of a heart attack

They really need to rename that to Workplace Management.

Very quiet here today... All the action must be over in the BattleBorn forum.

Mitch Connor · 18-01-2017 11:32AM

The game itself is very quiet - very few on last night for weekly reset stuff or Iron Banner. Hoping we start to get some D2 info soon - just to energise the community a bit. Activision earnings call on Feb 9th could signal the start of such info. It was the first time we got info on TTK and RoI, and Bungie were quick out of the gate with some info following those earnings calls.

I think/hope Activision confirm D2 for this year in Feb, followed by Bungie confirming some small details.

I think we might get some small snippets from Bungie on D2, some teases, running from March to June, and then at E3 we will get the full, massive reveal of Destiny, with Bungie then hitting the twitch streams hard between June and August/Septermber will info hype.

Lets hope they announce a better name :pac:

Well if any of you have a child, significant other, dog, uncle, sister in law, robot, butler who has ever touched a controller while Destiny is loaded in your console you could always make a post about it to pass the quiet time and reap in that front page karma :rolleyes:

I'm a cynical, jaded f**ker alright

Abuses/knave must have something. "Daughter accidentally soloed Nightfall while hopping the controller off the floor."

Or "How to successfully complete Aksis phase 2 while changing a nappy"

Lol, keep your Reddit salt out of here!

Honestly though, how does something like that get nearly 2K up votes? I didn't even read it... Such a wall of text.

Seriously though, most of those sorts of posts are nothing more than exercises in creative writing.

Kimbot · 18-01-2017 02:53PM

Having kids just ensure you have someone to couch co-op with :pac:

It's so sweet you can skip having the 3pm Kitkat

Formatting game is weak. I had to read it yesterday cause I needed to see if it needed to be removed for not being related to Destiny.

It also reads like utter bulls**t but then again I don't have kids so I'm cynical they actually talk/act like this. Seems scripted

I'm anxiously awaiting that alright.

Might have to postpone the house move so I'm online the second it hits the internet

Wouldn't want to crash the car if I'm driving
