SRL gear.

Can SRL gear be infused to work like normal armour? i.e. does it give Int / Disp / Str boost?

I thought it was just the helms, the rest has Zero light

My god he was good with a sniper in hand.

His sniping was unreal, in the video - a lot of his shots look like we were just standing infront of his sniper reticle and letting him pop shots off at him. But this wasn't the case, in one instance he rez snipes me, but dudeile was actually distracting him with cover fire, he moved off me threw a wombo combo at dudeile and back for a rez snipe, faster than we knew what was going on.

His speed was unbelievable. He was crossing the map so fast, and putting himself in position to cut off our every move.

We knew going into the game that he was very high-level and we had to either 3v1 him or take out the other 2 guys first, so we actually played pretty well. But wouter had other ideas. on at least 2 occasions we had him dead to rights and down to a sliver of health but he managed to escape, recover, and catch us as we were chasing him...

Edit: Great to see the video, although I would like to have seen the non-montage version, as its sped up - he was fast enough - the video didn't need speeding up!

Being able to snipe that smoothly, especially using a controller, is so far beyond my abilities it's a joke. The thought to action time is so low, looks like everyone else is running through water by comparison.

Titans can play football:


(stole from Reddit).

Yeah.... I dunno how to Gif

Ok, I'll preface this by saying that this is not so much funny or interesting as it is.... i dunno.... telling?

I've spoken to a few of the lads on chat about the day I basically thought to myself "you know what, screw you Datto"

I've, in the past, found him to be reasonably objective and a good voice for the community in Year 1 and Early Year 2 (without coming across as a shill)

But basically he posted a video about the Warpriest Challenge back in the day when it launched complaining about it being too easy (and hey-ho, if you've played this game for ~700+ hours, it is easy)

The thing is there was a kind of "community backlash" at the time since people on Reddit were like (i'm summarising and paraphrasing here)

"yeah, we find it easy, but we are the 1%, this is a challenge for the 99%, you don't speak for everyone, you now only speak for the 1%, which is elitist. You play this game all day every day as a full time job. Try going on LFG and finding some randoms and you'll get a rude awakening"

I actually agree with that sentiment, it's not super hard, but heck, even Oryx ain't hard once you've killed him a few times, challenge or not.

So here is video one, where he kind of let's loose (and don't get me wrong, the guy is entitled to his opinion and to voice said opinion on his channel, no argument there)



The thing is, that AFTER he posted that video and saw the "community backlash", when he did the Golgoroth Video he went into full "Toys thrown out of the Pram mode" and basically got the hump. It was one of the most f**king immature things i've seen from a person like him full stop on Youtube (and I watch a lot of stupid rubbish on youtube)



This ended up serving as a catalyst for him expanding his channel more and more (and good for him, no animosity there from me in that regard) but if you see his stuff now in regards the April updated it's DRIPPING in negativity like a sulky child. I mean he WANTS to complain, but "Can't" cause it's free.



Sometimes we'll kind of have chats about this in party but just wanted to throw this up here as it came up again recently and it was the kind of the day that Datto stopped being my "Go-to" resource for all things Destiny

Anyway..... yeah.... that's my rant over with

He's moved to/back to ProfessorBroman and KingGothalion.

(We really need the run away emote)

I've never liked either of those tbh. I can't stand Broman on a personal level. Gothalion I can actually stomach though. He came across like a dope on that live stream with Bungie before HoW but his Youtube stuff ain't bad, I can digest it.

Thing is, there's another youtuber I like called Morning After Kill (MAK). He's a fairly annoying guy from New Jersey (i think) who does Destiny videos and stuff for other games I like, like Borderlands. And there's a decent bit of bad blood there between himself and Broman :P

I like him (cause he's "real" in that he talks about real life stuff like his problems and screwed up family issues etc), but most people would find him MEGA annoying.

He seems like the kind of guy I'd get introduced to by a friend in a pub and either spend the rest of the night becoming best friends or I'd hate him so much I'd leave and burn the bar down :pac:

I'll leave one of his videos here for the sake of it. Yeah, he's annoying. But I like him cause he's his own guy for the most part and almost parodies how Youtubers are

Only just started listening to the Planet Destiny stuff and TruVangaurd. TruVanguard is great. An awesome player but seems very chill and humble with it - and it is clear he actually enjoys and likes the game.

The description on the video tells teh real story IMO:

So, I couldn't put these thoughts into the video because they're from the perspective of a hardcore player and whenever I talk from my hardcore perspective, I get destroyed by all of you. I wanted to name this video "A Casual Dream, A Hardcore Nightmare: The April Update," but I'm gonna guess that wasn't gonna go over well because no one likes hardcore players.

As a hardcore player, I'm disappointed in this update because Bungie has essentially casualified this game to the most casual I've ever seen it. Don't get me wrong, for the majority of the player base, this is a good thing to do, it just sucks as a hardcore player. The one thing that I thought I could be hardcore with, Prison of Elders, doesn't have global leaderboards. I have nothing to strive for. If you're not a hardcore player, you're not likely to have this train of thought and instead may view hardcore players as selfish or elitist. But, I'm gonna ask you to TRY to put yourself in the shoes of a hardcore player for the rest of this read.

Spending more time flat on my back these days so when I creak up I watch a lot of YouTube and Twitch...

I do like MTashed crucible school ones but his so called comedy ones with the Scotsman and the like are embarrassing IMO.....

Never really watched this Datto guy, I may have seen the odd one of his videos come up in my suggested feed...

"Can you put your daddy on the mic?"

"Hello?"

"Bro, I'm a loose cannon... Are you sure you want to do this?"
