    I disliked the comic a lot.
    The speaker was made some generic antagonist and Saint 14 a sycophant.

    Kinda missed the whole destiny feel in my opinion.

    On a better note all 3 characters 335 now

    Played a few games of Mayhem as a Nightstalker, great craic. Getting between 12-15 tethers per game. See radar ping an enemy around a corner, throw smoke to lure, wait for super, fire tether, profit.

    I was just throwing Nova bombs out door ways or in the general direction of enemies and letting it find it's own way.

    I'd fling one, leg it the other direction and about ten seconds later I'd get a kill pop up on screen.


    Nightstalkers and Golden Gunners are a pain in that mode. Went up against 3 Nightstalkers and a Golden Gun, got rekt.


    Good fun though :D

    its so sad that a company spending millions on a game cant come up with a story line as good as that would have been...

    Interesting in that there's a scannable in the new Tower which clearly states that Hawthorne and her crowd have been stealing from the vanguard.

    Supers feel like they fill faster than D1, while grenades don't?

    Where's that?

    Once I landed in the EDZ by the church, and the radio chatter in the background was about hawthorne and their gang, talking about looking out for themselves.

    Nice if these are seeds for some future story.

    This video has all the lore from the scans aswell, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lP-UlnhntWc

    Are you in the boards clan ? I'm still plugging 15k into those clan numbers every week. Always a few on and still making the 100k a week.

    Oh well.

    I'm still enjoying it, despite the many flaws.

    It's a pity, the PC port plays so well but the game has died a quick death. I doubt they'll get anyone to come back to it.

    Yeah it is a superb port.Maybe they can turn it around I certainly hooe so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 593 ✭✭✭cavemeister


    I'm really enjoying the verses collection.. I like the grind!!
    Only 1 more left and I have the full weapon set.

    I suspect there will be a raft of changes coming this new year - There has to be, investor return on investment will demand it :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 235 ✭✭ChrisMcCauley


    Started my seventh character yesterday (3 on PS4 already and replacing duplicate Titan on PC).  The game always starts well but it's let down badly by the end game. The verses and master works are small steps in the right direction. That Perfect Paradox quest line was very D1 too.

    Don't mind me asking if end game is such a let down why replace a character?


  • Registered Users Posts: 235 ✭✭ChrisMcCauley


    I'm replacing a second Titan with a first Hunter.  Don't normally like Hunters but just for completeness ...
    Also, the grind for a new character is fine, it's just when you hit 330-335 it gets boring.  The raid isn't my cup of tea so having completed it once I didn't bother going back.  The raid layer is fun though and more like D1


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,933 ✭✭✭Tazzimus


    I only left it with two characters on the PS4, doubt I'll make a hunter unless it's just for the achievement.


  • Registered Users Posts: 235 ✭✭ChrisMcCauley


    Exactly, just for the "Achievement Unlocked"

    i have all three characaters and have fun playing each of them each week, but i've not put the time into running the raid multiple times a week to get it done on each like I would have done with D1 - though i think that is down to a general lack of raid runs. I'd probably run them more if the groups were there. Meh, not too bothered about it.

    Like Striker Titan, liked solar titan in mayhem.
    Like Solar, Arc and Void Hunter for different things. Throwing up tethers every few seconds with orphious rig is amazing. Acr strider with the chest piece last an age and is great for ad clearing. Golden gun is infuriating cause my reactions and aiming aren't good enough.... ALSO WHY CAN A HAMMER TITAN ONE HIT ME BUT MY GOLDEN GUN ONLY DOES 80% TO HIM!?

    Not played Warlock as much, Voidlock with Devour and that punching glove exotic, great fun. Arc Buddies, great. Solar.... i dunno. Not a fan of Solarlock.
