What is the 4th thing, I'm not watching that entire video.

>>532566232
>5 mistakes in EoF leveling
#0 is loggin in at all.

do the bonus drops things stack or do they reset if you dont run the mission within the daily reset?
Also completing the daily portal "bounties" gives bonuses to missions randomly, does it stack on top of the daily bonus rewards or do i have to cancermax run the missions first to deplete the rewards and then redeeeeem the challenge to refresh the bonuses?

>>532564997 (OP)
Facts or nah

I love timegating, love being gaslit by content slobs that I'm the problem expecting normalcy in basic systems of a videogame

>>532565429
don't worry, op
there wasn't a single piece of information in it that they hadn't already relayed via tweets
just some vague "we're listening" nonsense

>>532567818
pure, raw trvthnvke

>>532565429
Reading it I'm pretty sure Bungie forgot until the last minute too.

did they just remove one of the easiest mods that gave +20 power? the promotion one? can't get more scummy than this bungie

>>532567818
TRVKE

>>532569329
Keep playing the game

>>532566232
>Ehroar
Not clicking

>>532567515
Player Stake modifiers are important, especially as you go up on level. My bad, forgot that one

>>532566232
>400
Bro I'm struggling to get to 200.
I'm not buying the expansion.

i took a long break from this game and after coming back im still enjoying the core gameplay
this probably wont last long
>>532567818
avant garde sucks

I FUCKING LOVE BAD JUJU. I FUCKING LOVE TOUCH OF MALICE. I FUCKING HAAAATTEEEE RELOADING

so is hitting 200 enough to do the normal version of the raid and fabled/mythic kepler missions? I don't feel like poopsocking the power grind at the moment.

Destiny is better when a democrat is in the Oval Office

>>532571759
It's enough for the raid, you can probably do fabled if you feel like it but definitely level before trying mythic.

>>532572490
Bungie does it on purpose, they hate chuds.

>>532571759
Who cares at this point
Just do what you want to
Fuck the power grind
Escape the hamster wheel

>>532571759
Mythic doesn't have the multiplicity modifier, so everything is tuned around a fireteam of 3. Trying to solo it will be a colossal pain in the ass without pre-nerf Third Iteration.

>The Nine planned this all along!
>So that means any plan Savathun made was essentially a manipulation by The Nine to get the outcome they wanted
>This would also imply they knew we would defeat The Witness but how does the Dark Future factor in if that is the case
>The Nine can see into the future but The Nine including III do nothing and III dies
>They didn't just throw a train at Maya when she was controlling III
>They claim we don't have an accurate time line of the collapse when there would be thousands of ways to determine that

EoF has so many plot holes its funny.

why doesn't bungie bring back normal xp levels to ease new players into the game instead of immediately making them grind for power level

>>532573683
Even if you take EoF on face value, it strips basically every other entity in the game from having any agency prior to this point.
Traveler? It's not picking people based on any criteria, the Nine are.
Witness? Didn't rebel or go into incel rage over the Traveler leaving, it was the Nine.
Dissenting Voices within the Witness? Planted by the Nine to make it possible to defeat the Witness.
Savathun? Moron. Puppet of the Worms, who were in turn puppets of the Nine.
Eramis? Calus? Ghaul? The Vex? Idiots. The Nine were in charge of every bit of opposition we've faced.
IT WAS ME BARRY remains one of the dumbest plot points for a reason.

give yourself to warframe

Just wait until the next INSANE plot twist where we learn an OC Donut Steel writer's pet was manipulating the Nine all along.

>>532573805
Bungie looks like they were being honest with themselves and realized not many new players are jumping into the game at this point, so they are just trying to extract as much time as they can from the hardcore. All the changes made this expansion are for hardcore grinders. They removed all obstacles that prevent you from going into a mindless grind (portal has far less menu, loading, vendor ranks and bounties, no moving around destinations) and even more ridiculous things to grind for like new confusing stat system that has messed up how everything works, weapon and armor tiers, modifiers, etc.

>>532573683
didn't some of the 9 get fucked by the witness?

It's almost like Bungie should have started working on Destiny 3 when Sony bought them in 2022. But I guess Sony and Bungie are both retards.

>>532574909
>All the changes made this expansion are for hardcore grinders.
Bungie as they realized they can just do nothing and let the game go into maintenance mode

>>532575446
No, the planets came back and the associated members were completely unaffected.

>>532573683
It was just a prank.

Maven > Zavlr

https://x.com/aquativityy/status/1948538936240078967
Over 60% of the top 100 Desert Perpetual contest clear teams are obvious cheaters, including a 5-man, 7 minute contest clear

>>532573683
>>They didn't just throw a train at Maya when she was controlling III
Why didn't they kill Maya before she became a digital ghost? It should have been easy to kill her during the Collapse or at any point beforehand, and the only thing that changes is the state of Neptune and the absence of Lakshmi as we knew her. Even if killing her would be disastrous for some reason, they weren't able to engineer a situation where the Echo of Command goes to someone less dangerous?

>>532573683
Lemme guess they're gonna make the Cult of Osiris Vance prophecies things of stuff that did sort of happen all ideas the Nine planted?

>>532573683
They just really needed to bring a person from the 60s to show them the end result of identity politcs by showing them Maya being a schizo dyke and fucking shit up like a retard, they thought it'd be funny.

>>532576657
damn some of these are so blatant especially with people without kills that didn't seem to be a player swap or anything. This happened similarly with Sundered where you definitely had tons of cheats in the top placements who then got disappeared after a few days and people's stuff shifted.

I started watching a raid guide on the new one and could only think fuck this I would have to run it 6 times with more and more modifiers just to unlocked non-useless loot, effectively running contest over and over for no reason other than bungie forcing some fake ass grind. fuck this company man what a joke

>>532574909
I think you're unfortunately right which is shitty because I feel like Destiny's endgame, getting into the actual challenging shit, finding and acquiring the weapons you enjoy etc wasn't that oppressive hard to get acclimated into. I mean yes the onboarding sucks, the economy really sucks if you have no prior history(i've had friends restart from scratch and glimmer, cores, etc are tough), but yeah I guess this is just some weird hail mary to satiate people who want their balls stepped on and Datto and Cross who are trying to cover mortgage, alimony and parkour lesson payments.

I'm somebody who's pretty hardcore but the moment I saw this entire thing fell into the same mistake Diablo 4 made early on, I bounced because padding the number go up process is boring, and getting to the fun part where I can focus solely on the gear and less on number is where the grind is tolerable.

It takes less time and effort to SSF level 100 in POE1 than it does to hit powerful cap (400) in destiny atm. I'd say what a fall from grace but that already happened 3 years ago, this is more a final nail in the coffin

huh, they changed fireteam ops to be matchmade now

>>532578146
I don't think there was a change, the ones at the top were always matchmade but most of the individual options (except the "featured" onslop) were non-matchmade

>>532578107
>SSF level 100 in POE1 than it does to hit powerful cap (400) in destiny
Bullshit, hardcore pvp trannies were already 400 end of last week, and regular no lifers are approaching 400 now.

>>532578491
regular no-lifers in poe take a few days max at league start to hit 100. It happening a week and a half later in destiny isn't making your point

>>532578762
Carry on then, I was comparing to myself, had no clue poe trannies hit 100 in matter of days, not really sure why you made it out to be some achievement then if it's that easy.

>>532573683
you solve this by saying that the nine are just full of shit and are lying to (You)

>>532578762
>>532579120
poopsockers aren't people

>>532578350
huh, i thought only the featured ones were matchmade, went into a liminality and it had matchmaking

Reminder that a Korean MMORPG made for WINDOWS MILLENIUM EDITION has a grind of less than 1 week (and less than 1 day if you sit down and just do it and also have a guide/resources) to build yourself to competently farm endgame on a fresh account with no spending.
If people can favorably compare a Korean MMO to your grind, then your grind is bullshit and needs reevaluated.

>next raid mechanic gets leaked

>>532579756
nta but they changed it this week

>>532578107
Dawg you could probably do a harder mode run of Baldur's 3 doing all the side quests and shit and still be done way quicker than you would with this slog

>>532574089
the MYSTERY is back GUYZ! Allison COOKED

>>532580353
for sure, I'm just comparing to a successful live service game that has a power-level-adjacent reset on launch. Seems like the industry has already figured this shit out yet bungie has to be the dumb ass hipster faggot that does everything wrong yet again

>>532573683
This is why they should’ve never done a story line around The Nine and especially another story line centered around a big bad threatening the universe. They should’ve done small stories on a small scale with new characters only.

The characters and the world have been raped enough, feels good to not about this shit story anymore.

>>532576657
"verifying runs" they said on the official Bungie stream lol

>>532576657
ABSOLUTE STATE

>everyone on the reddit whining about the changes are also admitting they've been grinding up to to 250-350
Its fucking over, the frogs have been boiled. You guys are going to cry about it while still logging in and the systems will all stay in place.

>>532580548
LOVE THE GRIND LOVE RUNNING SOLO OPS LOVE STARCROSSED BUNGIE PLEASE PUT IN ENCORE IN ALREADY I LOVE IT TOO

I unironically still log daily to grind a little. I haven't purchased EoF though.

>>532576657
>Da gayme moost run on wangblows to prevent cheating on PeeCee - Bungo
>Over 60% of DP clears are from cheaters
Total Bungie Death when?

>Maybe 2% of the playerbase active during Contest Mode could clear it legitimately. Likely less.
>Twitch views do not seem to have translated to players in-game.
>Retention is now even LOWER than before the raid.
So what was the point in making this watchable
If I want to watch people fuck around for 48 hours, vtubers exist, and they don't ask me to put another 200 hours in to see the model move.

>erm actually the plot with the witness was just to prepare us for this totally bigger threat that always existed

Did we just get WoW'd?

>>532576657
The laid off their security/anticheat team, didn't they?

>>532583187
We got WoW'd and Diablo 4'd.

So now that the stats are out can someone check how many hunters cleared the raid, subtracting from the known cheaters here of course
>>532576657

>>532583140
Cute girl, who's that?

>>532583863
Nobody anymore.

every day I pray that literally every single employee under the bungie tower gets yeeted to the street and sony gives destiny to some competent devs. Let the helldivers team have it or something

>>532583964
Damn... they sunset my bitch...

Please watch Datto's videos so he doesn't get an aneurysm when he comes back from GCX

>Raid requires you to run it at least 3 times at -20 to get loot unlocks
>You also have to play at -40 just to get T4 loot consistently.
>Raid doesn't even have T5 loot currently.
WHAT WAS THE FUCKING POINT

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=feNCLoZljfs
This isn't time travel by the way.

are dungeon secret chests still weekly or are they farmable now that dungeons don't go on rotation?

>>532584162
THE GRIND IS BACK! we won streamer bros!

EoF is not an expansion, it's a season.

>>532584162
Do the Kepler tier improvement bonuses apply to raid loot? I wouldn't know I haven't purchased EoF.

>>532584650
lmao, kepler shit only applies to kepler, you need to grind each activity separately to have a true sense of pride and accomplishment

>>532570812
nigga what are you doing the legendary campaign got me to like 150 and currently im 225 with only touching portal like a 10 times

>>532585773
Can you not read? He just said he's not buying the expansion, actually a lot of us aren't, me personally I've just been grinding portal stuff, maybe I'll buy the expansion once it's discounted.

>>532584449
Its an expansion without a season. They learned at least narratively, seasons dont make any sense, since so much story was temporary and now gone. Now you have the expansion, which will be permanent, and no movement story wise until the next expansion.

>>532586534
It's a season in scope very much with a bunch of pre rendered cutscenes they likely outsourced.

This entire situation can be attributed to Marathon, Bungie is spreading themselves thin trying to support D2 while also being all hands on deck developing Marathon and fixing the art fuckup + maybe trying to come up with last minute PvE content.

What's the best Titan build right now?

>>532586989
The ass piss build

I haven't seen the Jade Rabbit poster in a while. I hope she's okay.

>>532587741
if they're british, you'll never see them again

>>532586989
Crest of alfa lupi + storm's keep barricade spam with some long range weapon to deal with mythic enemies.

>>532587818
I've heard of something like that going around. Can't they VPN?

>>532588375
probably
or just use expired ID

>>532576657
so if top 100 was 60% cheaters lets say after top 100 it drops to 30% per 100 clears where cheaters that means out of the 390 clears only 243 are legit that means 62.4% of clears were cheaters

>>532586534
no i cant read why do you think im on here shit nigga

Remember how Bungie was too retarded to conclude the Light vs Darkness conflict so they just ass-pulled a DreamWorks villain and killed him off two years later?

While wasting or not explaining:
>The Traveler
>Ghosts
>Light
>Darkness
>The Pyramids
>The Worm Gods
>The Veil
>Nezarec
>Calus
>Xivu Arath as any kind of actual threat
>Rasputin

Fuck Bungie.

>>532586989
ashen wake grenade spam with roaring flames and 200 grenade
flechette storm + wishful ignorance (+ monte carlo) with 200 melee
alpha lupi + storm's keep
consecration spam still cleans up red bars even on mythic

Bros are we back?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgNCgJG0vnY

>>532586989

70% of the raid clears were cheaters

will be one of Maya's dykes

>>532591171
That's cap

>>532587818
Why ?

>Pre EoF
>Bungie apologistsif you want the best loot you have to play the raid or do gms
>Ok plays the raid and gms
>Post EoF
>Man this new system sucks why am I only getting tier 1 for the raid and why do I have to grind and have to add a bunch of feats just to get t2/t3
>Bungie apologists "Oh no, you actually have to earn the best loot? Say it isn't so."
NIGGER

Are Conquests weekly or seasonal? Surely they're not seasonal, right?

>>532589608
Did it even NEED to be concluded? I mean I guess so cause bungie wrote themselves into it but I was always under the impression that the darkness was just this malicious force or energy that will always be around no matter what. Could we push it back and keep it at bay? Yes. Could we defeat it? Hell no. But I guess it can be...
And god the witness was so gay dude, the pyramid ships were intimidating enough. I would have much rather had the ships be like sentient prisons where they would contain schizos like rhulk/the dread, the giant ass lovecraftian monster from D2 concept art, or even these spectre like beings in pic rel that the ships would release upon us whenever one would arrive and attack. idk how that would fit into the lore but it would make seeing pyramid ships scary because you have no idea what they'll have in store this time.

>>532592321
they are seasonal 1 time only :)

>>532583187
>>532573683
Why don't think just expand the Winnower's roster.? Just make it so there are many more like the witness and of equal power in the far reaches of space ,and that the witness was just one of many who are the chief disciples of the Darkness. Retcon the other disciples to not be under the witness, but just similar agents of lesser power.

You could pretty easily introduce new races and villains by saying that the witness left a massive vacuum is his part of the universe, and now equally destructive forces are moving in to fight for the spot. Like warhammer demons.

>>532592321
You can only do them once :)
What do you mean you can't find a group to do it with late in the season? Just make friends anon!

>>532592531
>>532592673

>>532592810

>>532592481
>Sentient prisons all containing different beasts
Now I'm upset it wasn't this. That would create a good mirror to guardians too, where each pyramid has its own unique fucked up champions just as the traveler does.

>>532592481
>Did it even NEED to be concluded? I mean I guess so cause bungie wrote themselves into it
they did so because they were going to EOS D2, thinking that all the shit they were working on would replace it. COVID and other realites fucked it up and ruined their plans.

no chuds the villains being angry dykes is a way better story than all mythical nonsense

>>532589608
The Witness was kino but Final Shape was rushed.

ruh roh!

What do you think Bungie will do to get people interested in playing Renegades? We know they won’t do the right thing and revert the system and loot changes they made, are they just hoping people play because of Star Wars? It’s all hands on deck for Marathon, I doubt the quality will increase dramatically when comparing to EoF

>>532593848
they dont have to do anything, youtubers will hype it once the hype renegades reveal trailer drops in the absolute state of snoy sometime in september or october

>>532593337
Witness should have had one of his more serious and ghost-like concept designs. The goofy appearance is a major criticism for the final villain of the saga.

Also his end goal of just freezing everything in place does not even align with the darkness motif when compared to other main villains like Oryx or Nezarac. Hell it doesn't even make sense with the initial collapse actually killing most of humanity outright.

And the concept of an evil collective was fumbled. It should have been more esoteric and not Bungie's baby commentary on collectivism.

Edge of Fate?
More like End of Service

Doomposters in shambles

>>532581397
I didnt even make it to 90 before I got tired of this bs.Id rather grind for vehicles in WT.

>>532589608
Calus in Lightfall was pure kino

>>532592810
that is a very old symbol with roots in Western esotericism (like a lot of early Destiny lore) and variations of it have likely been around since D1 concept art

>>532593064
I'm glad you like the idea :)
>>532593238
>COVID and other realites fucked it up and ruined their plans.
they were insane anyways to have 4 or 5 projects going on all at once while working on destiny, all that bs deserved to get canned. And bungie is straight up retarded not realizing just what the hell they have with destiny and not treating it better, NOTHING they make will ever be able to replace it.

predict week 4.content sloppers will do a 180 as soon as their source of income dries up.tranno will probably double down

>>532595892
there will be an aztecross, fallout and mactics video next week.
datto wont make a video until late august.
byf will keep sucking bungie's dick because that week's datapad said that the cabal on mars can wield the light.

>>532595892
There will be many interesting interactions between Bungie and their shills at GCX.

>59,861 24-hour peak
Bungie is going to make it

>>532593803
>75% steam dropoff
are you kidding me

>>532593803

>24 hour peak today couldnt even break 60K
if nothing changes for the better i predict week 4 will have 46k players or lower. We'll see how things go this weekend now that the raid race isn't around and go from there

>>532596043
jabba and tranno are the biggest bungie semen slurpers of the old guard.byf in particular will throw himself on the smallest lore tidbits for speculation videos even if it butchers the lore.I dont think the waffles guy will stick around without a decent cash inflow

>>532567818

*Total semi decent in crucible = 7

I see his point.

>>532598650
on warlock;
- Wings of Sacred Dawn leaves you vulnerable and in high comp or trials people will know to look at the skies for you
- Secant Filaments is not good in pvp
- Swarmers current version is not good and not worth enough, doesnt give mobility and its way too situational since it makes you HAVE to use strand as pvp subclass to get the most out of it
Warlocks should've at least kept eye of tomorrow or transversive steps as featured for pvp but yeah
NOT WORTH GOING PVP ON WARLOCK IF IT REQUIRES BUNGIE APPROVED GEAR ONLY

>>532599210
I guarantee you that the only PvP feedback they get anymore is from Hunters, at least internally.
The Hunter loadout is actually pretty nice and balanced. You've got some gimmick builds and some old classics that will get you through the season. Meanwhile, Warlocks are almost exclusively TTD shit why are they still sucking it off didn't that guy get laid off or moved to marathon or random PvE shit that a Warlock might wear to PvP because they don't want to change clothes.

>>532597054
the way I see it...they wont be able to make the correct changes to bring players back.the incoming world map changes are only visual and the loot from the ritual playlists is still complete ass.almost everything ouside the portal is worthless now and the portal itself sucks ass.then there is fact that build crafting has been gutted and that our pre EOF loot is essentially sunset.prior to EOF you could play whatever you wanted and progress that way but now you are stuck in narrow path where playing the same solo mission over and over is the best way grind LL which really boring.speaking of the LL grind...its just meanigless grind until the real grind for gear begins and the new tier system is just farming greens,blues etc again except they are all purple now.players will not spend months to just to get to the real grind only to start from scratch once the season ends because destiny isnt diabolo.

tldr:bungie is too slow in reverting the mountain of changes,bugs and nerfs etc that are needed to save the game and they are too stubborn to admit that sunsetting and vaulting stuff under a new disguise will always be extremly disliked.we complained 5 years about sunsetting and vaulting and they still brought it back and that means that they dont give a shit about our feedback.bungie has pissed away thew last bit of trust and they wont regain it without massive "overdelivery"
they forgot the main lessons of their awful gdc
>no trust
>no retention
>no revenue

>>532599210
I'm scaping the barrel and that's exactly why featured exotics are bad

>>532599627
To add to this you are probably better off just using no exotic so you can dump everything into the Weapons stat which actually affects your ttk if you get it over 100 lmao.

Edge of Faith

>>532599552
that fucking GDC presentation will haunt bungie forever lmao

is there anyway way to get perfect paradox now that the helm is gone

I'm edging my fate rn

>>532599926
yes and they cant even stick to their own values.
>we create games that inspire friendship
>grinding the same solo mission again and gain is the best way to level up now
and before that it was
>we create games that we want to play
>barely play their own games
>>532601017
more or less.you cannot make such stupid changes without having the manpower to quickly revert them or your game dies.most of their hands are tied to flopathon and the playerbase knows this.there was already a growing resentment towards marathon and its certainly going to get worse now.you cant neglect or outright screw over the costumers who finance your bs and still expect them to stick around.every destiny player is valuable because the game barely gets new players but bungie gave us the stick instead of the carrot and now they shouldnt be surprise if the player numbers crater.

>>532601632
imagine having 20000 hours in destiny lmao what a waste of 2 years of your life

the studio motto shit is so fucking gay lmao. do any other studios do that shit?

>>532599552
The big revert will occur during the ash and iron (or whatever the name) patch in september. But it will be too late.

And the guy in your photo is indeed a retard

why are you all crying? the game is still getting respectable numbers, 60k puts you in top 30 on steam.

>>532602892
Why don't people say that warframe is dead when the game pulls about as many people? Hypocrisy.

Is there a way to restart solo ops without putting modifiers every time?

>>532603105
No, only quickplay keeps going everything else is a one and done affair.

>>532603043
A part of me wants to try warframe but a part of me is saying I should stop playing these time sink gaas games

>>532603186
i tried warframe and it made me motion sick lol
im getting old bros...

>>532602596
>ash and iron
this could become their biggest mistake.people look back very fondly to the ttk-roi-triumph era.can you image the rage if this ends being some low effort port that takes place in a tiny bit of the plaguelands?it will be one of their last "fuck you"'s toward the playerbase before sony turn off the lights for their studio.

>>532603229
I just wish another Marvel Vs Capcom came out so I could burn 6 months on that

Doomgods.. our response?

>>532593803
how are there 100k+ players and only 77k total hours played?

>>532593803
why do retards on /v/ keep pushing this propaganda where more people play games on the PC when it's clearly not true?

Man I keep saying these hardcore players say one thing but actually want the opposite. They ask for grind but live for exploits that remove it. Ask for a ballbuster raid to end all raids. Get it. It's too hard or no I expected it to be more like puzzles not a boss rush. Do you really want hard puzzles? Shit you can't speed run or easily explain as a guide. You want an environmental puzzle across multiple zones that takes three to six hours to solve with multiple answers and keys while you are being shot at that has a hard fail state anyone on the squad could trigger? Bullshit. No you don't stop the cap. Go play The Talos Principle go play Myst or some shit. Turns out most of them cheated anyway so that was a fucking lie.

They ask for unique and rare weapons outside the reach of most players so they have things to chase not just raid loot. Bet. Every new gun has an endgame version out of the reach of 90% of players. They still mad because its not in the season pass or some shit. It's actually part of that big ass grind they asked for because obviously it is, what the hell did you expect? If its not it won't be rare shit. If tier 5 dropped in the raid day one it would just be raid loot. You already have that. The gun itself is the loot you numbskull the tier is part of the chase you been begging for since Beyond Light. The grind on top of the grind.

You can't make this shit up. I'm at bungie and I see this retardation on display and I'm making Renegades casual as fuck. Dungeon made to be done solo. Lowering the grind by 50%. Everything is craftable. ADA-1 reopening the Black Armory Forges to craft tiered loot because fuck you that's why. Man if they don't let me craft my own personalized lightsaber because you fuckwits keep circle jerking over all this hard shit you don't actually want to do I'm going to write a physical letter to bungie filled with nothing but cartoon dicks. Put me on a watchlist I don't give a shit.

>>532603539
Prob people like me who have a lot of bright dust. I log in to check what's new, and then log out. But I don't play the game.

>>532603796
they want status but they dont want to work for it.many of them are rejects from other games that are trying to be the 1% in destiny.the streamers fall into the same boat but they have a financial motivation aswell.the irony is that their demands tank player player numbers which are their source of cloud and money.tldr greedy parasites that seriously harm their host(destiny).

They should have made a half crafting system half what they have now where you grind out all the perks for whatever gun you want to max out and have a god roll for. Copy diablo 4. I find a gun it has a perk I want I now have that perk unlocked but that perk also has levels that only go up when you find that gun again with that perk and break it down. Lessens the RNG retardation but still is time consuming.

>>532603796
If lightsabers aren't craftable, they'll have missed the entire fucking point.
You don't have to go as hard as Jedi Survivor did, but half of the point of a lightsaber is that it's an expression of the user. Make it craftable and give it a bigass perk pool. Also make it come in multiple flavors, like Ergo Sum.
Knowing them, though, the Monkey's Paw has curled and it'll be a 45-perk heavy sword that shades poorly and is only available once a week from a 250-power Solo Activity.

>>532603043
Because we exactly know what, when, where is the new content and we know the content will be good.

>>532604401
I've seen this concept thrown around a lot on plebbit and here, but here's the problem, it means that the grind is finite which is bad for the player engagement metrics, higherups won't like it. They want the game to become people's second 9to5.

>>532603796
No team actually beat the contest raid 70% cheated as per >>532576657 the remaining 30% abused an exploit involving lord of wolves giving 500+ reserves when hot swapping to it in the middle of dps phases.

>>532604681
I mean they now rest the guns what every 3 or 6 months so better to give them a path to get everything they want before reset time comes

>>532604843
Yesh, that's because you average gamer isn't meant to get all the guns and all the rolls, god rolls are the carrot on the stick, you'll be seeing people posting about getting them, but your average gamer won't have one.

For over a thousand threads, the hopeposters were guardians of peace and justice in /dg/. Before the dark times. Before... the Doomgods..

>>532604401
They talked about concepts they had for crafting back in Witch Queen and Lightfall when they were overhauling the currencies. Originally, crafting was almost exactly that: You get a blank gun and you have to get currencies for the perks, like a Rampage token or a Bait And Switch token, by dismantling gun drops with those perks. However, it proved to be very cumbersome to farm/track, and confused a lot of the testers, in addition to putting a lot of pressure on the inventory system, so they went with the more generic shaping materials that the system released with. Even then, that ended up being a bit too annoying to farm and track, so they switched it out for generic materials.
My concept for fixing crafting was to make redborders guaranteed, but require an exorbitant number of them (somewhere in the ballpark of 30~50 based on origin) to get a full weapon pattern. That way, it works more as RNG protection, rather than the replacement for the seasonal loot chase that it turned into. If you get a godroll in less than 50 drops, then congrats, you're done. Just enhance what you've got. If you don't, just craft the roll when you get the pattern. Everyone wins.
But NOOOOOOOO the concept of a multifacted loot system is apparently TOO WEIRD for Bingle.

>>532605025
I dunno why they don't let them? Especially since the gun will be useless. I haven't played Diablo 4 in 2 seasons but last time I played it was casual as fuck but that made it good because I would get to a natural point where I would be done and content with all the shit I had.

>>532605214
I get why they didn't want redborders as it stands now but a longer red border farming method seemed like the best of both worlds.

>>532605214
Because it's harder to monetise it. Whenever they reinvent the wheel and bring in staple systems from other games, it's always some overcomplicated shit with currencies that usually can be bought for silver. Transmog is a good example of that, you could do that shitty quest to farm weaves one by one or you could drop some silver and get a bundle of 5 or something.

>>532605346
Only needing 5 was stupid. Maybe for raid guns that's okay, since you still generally would only get 1-2 drops of a gun per run, and could only get a redborder once a week, but it should've been at least 10~20 for seasonal guns, since you get tons of those all the time.

>>532605528
I still think it's weird that they never sold Harmonizers directly. They put them in the paid track of the Battle Pass, but I always figured that after the first couple of seasons they'd smell money and sell packs of 5 for $10. Would've been easy money from impatient retards.

>>532572490
Trump was president during rise of iron and forsaken.
Biden was president during Lightfall.
Need I say more?

>>532605702
>They put them in the paid track of the Battle Pass
That's exactly why, they used them as an incentive to make more people consider buying the premium track. And the other reason was the backlash, they nearly shat the bad because of the transmog/weave shitshow, they didn't want the repeat of that, at least the higherups back then didn't want that. I'm pretty sure the new director, Tyson Grind, would sell them without any issues, one more controversy at this point is a nothing burger.

I have a dream
In that dream, the guy who insists shaders need to have those fucking keyscratches on them gets fired, and on his way out, gets hit by a car

They are three real Powers right now

>Eris Morne (the Hive)
>Mara Sov (the Awoken)
>Maya Sundaresh (the Vex)

Two of them are enemies

Now the gate has been unlatched, player retention pushed aside; empty servers shift and offer room, a fate destiny 2 must abide.

>>532603796
>I'm at bungie and I see this retardation on display and I'm making Renegades casual as fuck.
How's the HRT going?

So is K1 Logistics really the most efficient way to get to 200? I'm at 170, and I just have 30 Light left to go.

So how low is the player count going to get this year consider this is where we're at a week after the biggest expansion of the year and a new raid

>>532609052
Back to Season of the Revenant levels, expect 4 digit playercounts again by the end of August.

>>532609052
check again in 12 hours

How's it going /dg/?

>>532610720
Took a day off work, just grinding my way to 200 while I eat pancakes and watch Taskmaster.
Its a good day.

>>532610720
tired, should sleep soon desu
>>532610786
>pancakes
damn, i could go for some pancakes, maybe tomorrow.
thanks for the idea anon

>>532610862
Get some dope syrup. I'm doing strawberry syrup. Its great.

>>532610720
I was sick for the last few days but its getting better now

>>532567672
can i get some clarification on this?

>>532610720
Very tired. Gonna jerk off and go to sleep. Mildly looking forward to seeing some mcuslop with weekend.

Encore is coming back next week, right? Right???

>>532593064
I’m glad the creative director of Destiny got fired. Retard picked the Shitness over these things

>>532610720
Like shit

>>532610720
I'm playing WoW and Warframe because
>they have a tons of content
>they are free
>they are alive and loved by their players

>>532614549
>WoW
>loved by its players
You traded one maze for another.

>>532610720
I’m at work playing shit that is not out yet

>>532614628
I love mazes. I wish Destiny 2 was still a maze with millions of things to do, explore, farm, and discuss.

>>532614628
i love wow it has been my favourite game for 16 years :3

>>532614628
Nothing wrong with mazing if the maze is fun.

>this makes the average player angry

>>532612238
can't have everyone just skip our company curated grinding planned for 8 weeks

Ada is pointless, everything she does can just go to Rahool. Let her manage the gun range instead.

With the farm gone, why is there no remembrance of Holiday in the tower next to Cayde?

>>532615442
Man I'm glad Splitgate 2 died

>>532615885
Maybe Bungie will try to steel portals and make them shit like they did with the Metroid ball.

>try to solo a dungeon
>bosses now have almost twice the hp

thanks for ruining old content bungo

>>532616980
They've always hated their solo playerbase, they finally gave you a wealth of solo content this season and purposefully made 99% of it impossible.

Unleashed Delver here.

>>532615442
Portal is actually a good idea but it was extremely half assed like everything Bungie does.

you guys remember doing gm excision when it launched

>>532618424
I remember when nightfalls had a timer that booted you to orbit then never bothering with them again

>>532618807

>>532618884

>>532618884
That's basically been Bungie's MO, finding new ways to make Destiny such ass every season.

>load into gm excision
>multiple guys die right at the start

>your gun model doesn't even load properly

You rike?

>>532621989
It's sunsetting they just wont admit it
Either way they're gonna do something when data shows 99% of people don't advance beyond power 300 and paid content is functionally dead

Holy FUCK there is nothing to do.

I didn’t know he paints his nails. What is it with destiny and troons?

>>532573683
>>532574089
Are they tho? They're not behind everything that happened, they are just witnesses, as they exist simultaneously in past and future, everything would have happened without their meddling anyway, they just surgically nudged several events (where they could intervene), so it would eventually benefit them.
They are timeline hijackers at best, not actual writers of whole story.

And knowing that it's called Fate saga, it seems like central conflict is going to be based around ye olde "Guardians make their own fate" adage.

>>532623584
he's trying to replace tranno

>>532623584
Please don't post this disgusting cretin again

Week after the expansion drop and we're 1/10 the population of the previous expansion. I hope sony annihilates bungie into the sun

This situation reminds me of Warlords of New York update for the Division 2.

>>532625932
why? while it wasn't amazing, it didn't completely kill the game and it was priced properly for the amount of content it provided

>>532622113
>It's sunsetting they just wont admit it

what the bonuses for only using new weapons and new armor weren't enough of a tell? You even get an easier time with score multipliers if you use only new weapons and armor

I hate Bungie so much

>>532626007
They added world tiers, nerfed all the exotics and added paragon levels from Diablo 3. It was the same crap to increase player engagement, and after the first season, the game died.

>>532624234
yeah, well, for that, Datto is just going to put him in his place by sucking his dick and then crying about it.

>>532606880
This, most new shaders add too much shit and look stupid. Sometimes I just want to change colors without adding animated emblems, scratches, and other texture patterns on top of it. The old shaders were much better.

>>532623584
personally i view men with painted nails as repulsive and untrustworthy

>>532628316
I painted my nails once this year and it was hilarious how it obviously triggered a couple guys I interacted with. Coincidentally neither of them get any pussy.

>>532628427
what an empowering story

>>532628498
Its just funny, it makes me smile. Maybe if you had a woman who loved you paint your nails you'd be less angry.

>>532628590
I'm angry?
I'm amused now if anything

>>532628427
painted nails are gay homie
>b-b-but no pussy
I'm married to a Caucasian, cardio-bunny, biological woman. your nails are gay

>>532628590
She is cucking you with men that would not dream of having their nails painted; the fact that you let her paint your nails means your are incapable of accepting it.

>>532628427
the room clapped. they clapped for me.

>>532628427
Hello Tranno

I love skarrow
he always has the right opinion

>>532629562
and are these right opinions in the room with us right now?

>>532629562
Thanks bro, i appreciate it.

>>532574089
Every future plot point is also very much dead on arrival too unless it specifically tries to go against the nine
I don't know who had this great idea of "well everything that's happened and is happening is because we wanted it to be this way"

sunset sex havers

>>532630593
>I don't know who had this great idea of "well everything that's happened and is happening is because we wanted it to be this way"
its an attempt to make the Nine a foe with a bigger scope than the Winnower. Unfortunately, once you have ended the story about how the universal force of adversity was defeated, nothing you can write will top that. Unless they have the Nine being manipulated by the Winnower, but they wont.

when it comes to sunsetting sex I think thats what we call aging

i know its not healthy to get mad at things that dont exist, but thinking about all the different ways they could have changed the game for the better but chose not to just makes my blood boil.

>>532630002

>>532573683
it would be best not to think about it
the idiots who wrote this unironically know nothing about Destiny, same with the retards who came up with the Witness

>>532632073
>knows thing is bad
>does bad thing anyway
D2 players in a nutshell. Bungie got your money and your time, which is all they cared about. But by all means, waste more precious time bitching.

>>532632551
They have my time yeah, but not a single dime since Shadowkeep.

>>532632551
please don't confuse shitposting on /vg/ the same as financially supporting a shitty company

Yeah man, please

>shitposting
like ive said many times the people in this general over react every expansion when shit releases
>oh no the game is buggy
>oh wow theres barely anything to do
yeah believe it or not thats just how most games are nowadays. bungie is no different from someone like fromsoft or activision. people are just pissed off because they didnt get what they wanted and they need to accept the reality of the situation that you arent the core focus that needs to be satisfied but instead its masses of people that need to be pleased
so whats the point I am trying to make in my post? edge of fate is a decent expansion. they are experimenting with how they want to design the game further in the future and I think renegades will really change how we both feel about the game and how we play it

Heard it here firstfrom the top minds of /dg/: making the game worse is a decent expansion.

Destin bros...

>>532633531
>5 silver has been deposited into your account

>>532633653
experiemnts arent meant to feel good. they are conducted to help make something good in the future

When do we get our equivalent of Taken King or Forsaken? We need one

>>532632074
why didnt I expect there to be a lodi basedjak already

in order to understand the player, one must put them through a trial and see how they react
then you would reshape the environment to give them a more pleasant experience
this is whats happening with the year of prophecy of destiny 2.

>>532633986
they also fail

>>532633678
Is that retard still going, I thought he got clowned into oblivion for the BG3 take

>>532634306
and thats what experiments do. they arent perfect. they fail and fail and fail again and again until finally they find just the right mixture that gives the desired effect needed from it

Self loathing isnt healthy. But then again you guys play Destiny 2 so you're inherently unhealthy, I suppose.

>>532634753
I literally forgot this guy even existed
He is still seething about destiny?
What about that one dude who was seething about D1, who used a red D1 titan as his avatar. Is he around too?

>>532634645
>>532634809
it took 3000 years to cure small pox
this development takes time, especially with a development team conducting multiple experiments aswell

You guys play Destiny 2 lmao, who cares what you think.

i havent played since april how bad did they fuck it up, should i go back and try it out

>>532635301
apparently shitposting in /dg/ means you play so I guess you do as well? or are you just american and the lead paint and propaganda has ruined your ability to think?

Why is Datto shilling that men should be wearing makeup? Now is not the time for more LGBT propaganda

>>532635374
Why would I play Destiny 2, I dont hate myself.

>>532635464
why do you assume anyone else here plays it then? what is it like living with a profound mental disability?

>>532635301
Datto, you're being ridiculous. Stop watching instagram reel slop for 5k views and putting on makeup, it's not healthy.

>>532635372
Don't pay any money but if you want some schadenfreude, look at what the portal grind is.
Seasons were bad by the way and this is better

>>532634434

Did he dislike it? Based, if true.

>>532635546
Because you guys clearly play the game still despite hating it lol, this is such a weird general.

>>532635464
>I dont hate myself.
random lurker here! considering everything else youve posted so far, you hate yourself more than anyone else! Cya!

>>532635737
No he said all games should do the development model of being early access until your company nearly goes out of business then release so you can be as ePiC as BG3

>mommy says I'm special and unique and no one else is like me!

>>532635749
We hate Bungie, not Destiny.

>>532628427
people who say stuff like this very clearly get low quality pussy and brag about it. Unless you're a male model equivalent or a rockstar, the type of man who paints his nails is ALWAYS some weird dysgenic who chases equally fucked up women.

>>532635834
The projection is very funny.

>>532635727
is it actually better? ive seen just people complain the gear grind and the game as a whole is just stale and pointless due to it

i say and act like this

>>532636685
Nah I'm being factitious, even the worst seasons were miles better than this dogshit

>mass reply
>saaar you are projecting saaaar

>>532636783
well fuck, i've no idea what i'm gonna play now, honestly impressive how dogshit bungie is handling the game, makes me wonder how many people are being held hostage working on the game and can't leave the dev team

this general seems to attract a strangely high amount of people who are obsessed with the game but seemingly don't play it or even know anything about it
like this mentally ill individual here

How many Bungie employees come in here and defend their retarded decisions and gay tendencies every day? More than 2?

>>532638017
This place has like 3 dozen posters, I cant imagine its worth the effort to shill here.

no we just lurk, THAT one is all on you

>>532638145
I would talk to you guys if you were cool like Luke Smith was.

APOLOGIZE

>>532637061
Some people hated the matterspark / mattermorph navigation puzzles but I think once they started combing them they were fun.
Id say the expansion is worth playing but definitely not for 40 bucks. If you can get a cheap CD key or wait for a deep sale, that's probably worth it.
The grind is only for infinite time streamers or dads that are unwilling to learn a new game and will stay with destiny due to inertia

piss status?

>>532638385

>>532638704
>patrol zone smaller than the tower
>story is mid at best
>cool guns, dogshit perks
>muh infinite forest

it was just plain ass, they were missing so hard with early d2 its honestly a surprise the game lasted long enough for forsaken to be made

Content wise and quality wise EoF is miles ahead of CoO.
Im not going to pretend like CoO was some huge DLC with infinite amount of content.

if bunjew didn't make us permanently -10 to -50 on any content and purposefully nerfed every stat / ability on top of that, EoF would have been a good DLC

Bro there's like 5 strikes in the rotation and it didn't even change from last week, wtf are they doing over there

the patrol zone is massive

>>532639289
forsaken only got made because they had 2 studios helping them, and I can bet with you most of the good decisions with forsaken came from those 2 studios

>>532639929
I was having fun until I hit 300, then the best move is just not to play. The ammout of ass mods you have to run to even have a chance of getting upgraded gear is insane, went from being able to clear kell's fall solo in 14 minutes to just slogging around without ammo and hud just for a chance at a shitty t3 drop

>>532640247
Pretty much and it only gets worse.

>>532639386
>3 new pvp maps
>2 strikes (reused story missions)
>12 exotic armor
>4 exotic weapons
>public event
>2 tokens and a blue

>in a couple months this will be a gacha general
Grim

I FUCKING LOVE LIMINALITY YA BA DA BA DOOOO

>>532638704
It had more content than Beyond Light did, only problem was it was expanding on a bad game. Would have been great if it came out after Forsaken.

>>532639386

>>532640247
a lot of issues would have been alleviated if fabled campaign bumped us to 250-300 on its own
>>532642613
what does no sparrows mean? THere is a least one in reward pass and 5 billion sparrows / surf boards in eververse
0 new strikes fair but considering they were reused story missions, EoF also has reused story missions.
0 tokens and tier 1, more like 2 armors and a weapon
Not really sure what Raid Lair implies, but new dogshit raid has same "pick your encounter" mechanic, with ability to go straight to final boss, i think in future we will be able to modify it like portal garbage
i would say 4 armor sets can be considered as old exotics, i think last time someone mentioned a lot of those 12 were returning exotics as well
whats 4th exotic weapon? Scout / Hand Cannon / Rocket Launcher, whats 4th?

EoF campaign and Kepler are much bigger than CoO, plus year just started, we will get a sprinkle of content by the end of the year

>>532643320
forgot to mention, i think solo ops are 100 times better than strikes.
honestly who the fuck played strikes?

>>532643530
I just solo the strikes now to get my bonus rewards, not like they're any more difficult than the solo ops

>>532643661
i feel like they are longer but that depends on strike and solo op

They just need to delete Kepler and add all the vaulted content back to the game with updated weapons and world tiers. It's that simple. Also remove the New Gear and Featured Exotics shit.

>>532593848
>thinking marathon will ever actually release

>>532644274
hunt is better than marathon will ever be and already exists with a stable population. I would definitely prefer a futuristic setting vs the cowboy/western one

>>532597106
The fact how Byf used to ninja re-upload, take down videos, etc to always look the most correct was embarassing, like he's just so addicted to keeping up the illusion that he knows everything and admitting not being super sure of things is just under him. I always remember the Week 1 of Invite to The Nine in Joker's Wild when he was thinking "the blade and the hour glass" were somehow Taox and a Vex or taken mind, and while he did admit he was just spitballing, idk how the fuck in early year 2 the physical lack of Eris(who was teased all throughout Year 1 and Year 2 lore) and Exo Stranger briefly referenced in Mara visits and other stuff wouldn't click as who was being referenced as sharing powers similar to Drifter.

>>532640065
Collections and the Shore were made by High Moon from what I remember, and Vicarious Visions did the Dreaming City

>>532645042

>>532623584
The guy's a massive bitch with the whining about how "the community's mean to me" and then you find out he was a fucking ratfuck for CoD and would defend some horrible decisions.

>Solo Ops objectively better for leveling than anything else in the game
Bravo, Bungie. I miss when Destiny was a multiplayer game with some MMO inspiration.

>>532646813
Bungie would never lie

>>532644146
They arent doing any of that

After playing starcrossed a gorillion times the last few days I noticed it probably has the best way bungo has done hp gating for a non raid/dungeon boss. Instead of it just getting an immune shield it spawns those two clusters of goblins that can give a shield to it and you have to kill the goblins before that, and the toblins form a shield conga line so if they do shield the boss you gotta kill the goblin chain, but you can stop them from even shielding the boss at all. Why is this the only time they did hp gating like this? It feels more natural and good then just instant immune shields, now go do this slop mechanic. Especially since if you have good AOE shit you can insta nuke both clusters of goblins each time. Also the platforming sections are super short and dont overstay their welcome at all. It took years but I finally like this mission.

are destiny girls qts?

>>532647797
If by "girls", you mean gay men wearing nail polish, no.

>>532639386
Curse of Osiris

>No new strikes even ones made from story missions

CoO had more general content that was better for the core game, EoF is like if you took those Cayde stashes and made that the entire content of the expansion. EoF is just inferior.

>>532603795

I’m convinced the campaign was intentionally designed to encourage players to buy the campaign skip. I have negative drive to complete this on my last character.

Nigga we know more layoffs are coming and that Sony taking over is inevitable.

I didn't even know this retard was on twitter, who put me on the Chud list? Is it because I follow Tassi?

Guardian sissies, I’m so eager to play the dungeon ops playlist! It’ll be so fun to drop into a portion of Prophecy, transmat 5 supplies for Kepler, then do a substantially weaker version of the final boss and earn portal guns at the end, it’ll be soooooo kino~

>>532649549

Please please, for the love of God, break Bungie into two and give the newly formed Destiny team more studios to aid them, just like with Activision. Its the only way to save this shit at this point.

the only real end to the Light vs Darkness conflict would be end of service
the morons who invented the Witness didn't know shit about the setting and were more concerned with making their own Avengers
the Shitness is Thanus and The Final Slop is Endgape

btw the Pyramids are, or were supposed to be, to the Dark what the Traveler is to the Light

70% of the contest clears were cheaters
Seventy percent.
Seventy.

There isn't even enough legit clears to fill a top 100 now.

>>532652759
Remember when seeing the Pyramids was an actual "oh shit" moment?
I still remember the epilogue cutscene of the Red War which shows Pyramid ships activating at the edge of the solar system. Or the screen in... Seraph? that showed the fleet approaching Earth, and they moved closer like, every reset.

Cross, live right, now, his team went from like 375 to 130 from Bungie removing cheaters

>>532652593
>calus in year 1 + 2 of destiny 2 was shown as this gray moral character who was willing to be an ally with us since we indirectly fulfilled his revenge
>he was also an "ally" to us since he wanted to see how we'd fair against the witness and darkness.
>beyond light comes out and he suddenlt disappears from the story
>lightfall brings him back as a generic evil mook for the witness
i hate what they did with my boy...

>>532652759
The Pyramids were genuinely cool and ominous, so of course nu-Bungie turned them into a bunch of pointless ships. They always should have been the dark inverse of the Traveler, trying to lure strong beings into becoming disciples of Darkness. But of course Bungie needed their eyebrow man big baddy to scowl at us in the raid, so they had to ruin everything.

Bungie has to explain everything and escalate the story to be something that threatens the entire universe. Reboot Destiny and take it away from Bungie, it’s the only hope remaining. Bungie can’t even maintain the combat sandbox without fucking something up that ruins it.

Meanwhile my old clanmate arguing with automated bots and some turbo jannie customer support person who say they can't conclusive confirm that Battleye picked up their Sims mods in the background as cheats or not and don't want to unban somebody who might still be cheating and using other programs as an excuse to cover.

>>532658151

>>532657825

>>532657226
Somebody on here mentioned she had the -tism stare, and it made her self conscious

>>532658328
Oh nice, I'll watch her videos sometimes for builds or whatever. That's cool, I felt bad because I thought she was one of them.

>>532658261
I know this friendly fire shouldn't be tolerated but Bungie's out for ruining everybody's life. I'm mostly just said that with another clanmate lost it's just the washed dads who could've gone pro, will wait til datto has a video out for them to have an opinion and enjoy getting lost in the mindless grind despite not realizing how absurd it all is

Casper Konefal is a talented artist but his Witness concepts are fucking shit. The unibrow is dumb as hell and the rest of the face is just a basic human. The arms and hands are also just regular human ones, and the black outfit just looks like a funky trenchcoat. I can't believe how unimaginative the design is, every other alien race is much better.

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/KOPWwW

>>532653291
I was mostly pissed off we didn't really get to see a ton of him physically in his decayed state where he was basically carted around in an iron lung. Even when he goes into the slab in Shitfall, it looked like barely anything happened, he was supposed to look like the lungs and organs of somebody who was smoking and just a complete husk.

>>532653046
That was Worthy, and when they finally arrived, we had to play fucking gambit on the planets that they would eventually delete.

>>532658930
I agree, it never really felt right to me to make the alien more human like. Especially when Bungie painfully forced that whole angle of "actually now the statues are like souls screaming in limbo" when there was obvious the original design intentions reminiscent of Veiled Isis and the philosophical connections to that playing a part, the thing basically talking of a bit of a complete control of darkness over light with the shroud being Darkness over a divine feminine like female statue/the light. It never had to be this poorly done for how it all turned out.

>>532653046
yeah i remember
KINO ALERT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLunWWNFvgg
>Or the screen in... Seraph?
Worthy, Seraph was the one where Ana and Elsie were having meltdowns over their daddy issues(that Robert projected onto them), and Rasputin decided that the best course of action was for him to commit suicide
Worthy was a solid season that had some issues but was overly hated by trialsissies and cattle parroting streamer "opinions"

Shadow Calus was peak Calus. For the first time, we see him alive and not just some kind of buffoon who farts and laughs and eats. We see him disappointed, angry, frightened, unsure, boastful, and above all, we see him CABAL, taking up arms and fighting, not just obese on his throne.

>>532658492
That's bullshit, you don't put yourself out there as a live streamer, baiting lonely viewers with your "sexy" voice, and post photos of your legs and cleavage, but are somehow afraid of showing your face. She just knows it's easily her weakest feature and it'd lower her appeal.

Exploiting bugs isn't cheating, not does it devalue getting world first or being in among the first batch of clearing groups.
You would have to disqualify literally every single world first race winner from every game. Exploit early, exploit hard is a tenet of racing. Its on the devs to ensure the game doesn't have the bugs. If the bugs are there when shipped, then its fair game to use.

>>532670701
it is now, you will like it or stop playing chud

here's a question for Alison
what did the Hive do so that they would be able to defeat the Ecumene?
hint and bonus question: Oryx did something to his sisters. what was it and where did it happen?
surely Alison knows this, she wrote Heresy and it was all about Oryx and his sisters and the Books of Sorrow

>>532671095
THE GRIND. IS. BACK.

>>532671189
>Books of Sorrow
I think the Bungie writers stance on the Books of Sorrow, well before Alison, was that they were not to be taken literally/were apocryphal.

Went back to Destiny 1 last week after 8-9 years?! and began my return with a new Hunter, in the 9 days since i've had 2 engrams decrypt into exotics. The Bones of Eao after i had bought them from Xur and then Truth...which Xur is now selling. What kind of fake bullshit RNG is Bungie pulling? How is this level of kikery okay?

I mean the odds of this being legit is in the billions, do they really design RNG around your specific account and inventory?

>>532671095
I’m thankful for autists like this, canaries in the coal mine that is the current Destiny 2 sandbox

PSA: alacrity probably goes hard in the solo playlist and xur is selling trials guns. just a reminder for the pvp impaired.

What is his opinion on destiny 2 right now?

Imagine hiring an obese west coast female writer for to write for your science fantasy action looter shooter.

>>532671918
Primaries are actually useful and supers don't take an eternity to recharge. It is a completed game with a cohesive vision and feel across the whole thing, however you will notice a plethora of missing qol features that you probably take for granted in D2. If you don't mind low fov and framerate, I'd absolutely recommend playing it.

You CLEARLY dont have 100 intellect

>which are old activities
the shit Les is saying here is what i was talking about last thread and a couple threads ago, about old content

it doesn't matter how many activities or how much ""content"" is in the game, the people who play nothing but this game will always complain
even before half of the game was deleted there was complaining about there being no content how there's nothing to do
idk if Luke said it, or whoever, but it's true that people don't want to do old content and play old activities, this was shown in Wish with Blind Well and again now where people don't want to do it even though the OLD CONTENT gives new rewards

Man, this a good reminder to look at how hostile Bungie is with what's left of the Destiny fanbase. They fucking hate us and don't even try to hide it.

Man I am always surprised at how ugly Warframe looks. Not the graphics the designs themselves. Fucking hideous work all over this thing. What the hell is that blue face thing with the stick figure arms at 8:16? How does that make it off the concept page? Eww.

>>532679419
We also had actual game devs working on the game instead of social activists larping as game devs

As an alpha giga master founder vet of Warframe, this fills me with nostalgia.
Back to the times, when Scott and Steve openly hated us, dev streams had that antagonistic vibe to them (uni vacuum drama and shit) or when Steve got visibly angry after Rebb read him Zamboni's post.

>>532679419
You don't spend a thousand years trying to find a way to resurrect your best “bro”. Saint's absence left such a huge void in Osiris's life that the only explanation has always been that they were lovers.

>>532680280
>You don't spend a thousand years trying to find a way to resurrect your best “bro”.
You do it if that bro was a fan favorite lore character that was unceremoniously killed off screen and you need a way to bring him back for easy brownie points with the fans.

>Can you imagine being so fucking disgustingly touch-starved and sex-saturated that any amount of fraternal camaraderie instantly signals "they are gays, they are in a homosexual relationship" to your ghoulish, porn-addled brain?

There also was pretty early drama related to Mag Prime (or Latron Prime?) part % drops, and dataminers proved that DE lied/were wrong about drop chances. Btw, dataminers were a hot topic ever since, with DE having a multiple go's at trying to shut them down.

Brookes claimed that the executives demanded he kill Rasputin for good, which seems so bizarrely hands on that I have to assume it's bullshit

The scourge of brainrot /pol/ who think that homosexuality and transvestism appeared in 2016.

>>532679565
It's just a nuWarframe.
Old one, circa 2013 version had a pretty grounded giger'esque-lite art direction and moody, dark atmosphere, which I really appreciated, even if it was somewhat unpolished and low budget. Early warframes had a nice and elegant biomechanical theme going for them.

>>532682930
>executives
Why the fuck would executives care about the story or even know who Rasputin is?

>>532683367
Jason Jones could. He was involved enough to scrap the original D1 story.

>>532683113
The art direction in Destiny was only good three times: for the Hive, for the Darkness (Witness and Pyramids), and for the Disciples (of the Witness). Everything else is ugly or ridiculous.

>>532682930
Yeah I didn't really get that whole comment especially the "he's too powerful to write around". If that was really the case what about all the shit to go on in Lightfall with Mara god powers in Defiance(or any other time), Space Whale god bullshit, Eris being a Hive God, and then Riven from beyond the grave hooking us up so casually. It makes no fucking sense especially when they made the conscious choice to have Rasputin effectively redeemed and sentient as a human.

>witness
>good art direction
just fucking kill yourself already holy shit

>>532682930
>>532683367
>>532683510
Rasputin was problematic (god I hate this word) in many aspects. He was too powerful to write around, his existence created some plotholes that desperately needed plugging, and the execs would probably want to remove a popular Russian-themed characted since the war in Ukraine began, they had another KEK situation where Titan's IB armor ported from D1 had leather straps forming the letter Z on the shoulder pad, and they did a stealth update to remove the semblance, but unlike KEK it was never mentioned in patch notes or anywhere else.

>>532683367
I could maybe imagine someone knowing about a Russian robot and wanting it dealt with given the timing, but unless it was Jason Jones wanting him gone to spite Staten, I have to think it was Brookes trying to get people mad at the executives instead of him.

As a former minigamer I could have told you there were tons of cheated clears

Its the same shit you see in trials and comp, and of course its rampant because bungo has terrible anti cheat. And of course for every blatant cheater there are probably one or two subtle ones that arent obvious at first glance.

I unironically bet over half the contest clears are fake and gay

braptics cheated and still put out a stinker of a performance

>>532685030
Are you responding to somebody else? I'm saying that I'm against Rasputin being offed when he had more of a place after Seraph and that Bungie's reasoning made no fucking sense consider who else they magically gave absurd god powers that kinda bends the world more than what Rasputin was possible of

>>532685030
It's like my gf likes to say, the a character cannot be smarter than their creator. Destiny's writers are hilariously stupid, and 'too powerful' was a Brookes's argument if I'm not mistaken. As for plotholes - Rasputin was either extremely powerful and capable of killling off paracausal entities (Guardians and their Ghosts) or a bitch who can be hacked by a Fallen warband and whose paracausal-killing warheads did jack shit against the Black Fleet. He's also a treasure trove for any information about humanity's Golden Age and tech (including but not limited to weapons), but this was barely mentioned at all. His death created even more disjointed shit because Forsaken's Dreaming City repeated quests and Cosmodrome patrols still refer to Rasputin as a living entity.

>>532685880
>>532685030
>>532684141
Also on the 'too powerful' note - they somehow didn't apply this to Xivu Arath until Heresy where any act of war would make her stronger, and they decided to strip her of her power in the background, which was another hilariously stupid decision.

>>532685030
Rasputin can control SIVA, he can easily rebuild whole Earth in a jiffy, arm us up to gills or create fuck hyuge space armada. Possibilities are infinite. His Warsats are doomsday tier weapons.
Yet he was hobbled and shackled at every turn.

>>532685812
i'm linking your post to the other guy to read, sorry i should've made it more clear

>>532685880
>capable of killling off paracausal entities (Guardians and their Ghosts)
what can or can't kill Ghosts has been inconsistent since forever

>>532685812
>>532686116
Yeah, I was against killing off Rasputin as well, it's just a character that had some flaws plot-wise, but instead of trying to fix his issues, they just doubled down on them to write him out of the story as quickly as possible.

>>532686116
Rasputin was somewhat more interesting in that he could remotely make Ghosts power down with music. It only happened once in an Io adventure. It was called Arecibo I think.

>>532685030
Rasputin didn't really work as an ally given he solves a lot of the more "local" conflicts by existing. Just warmind laser house salvations civilian population into dust and just side step the whole campaign. Which is why any time he was at full power he ended up bitchslapped or switched off. He doesn't work as a villain either since he could do the same to guardians. He is complicated enough to give Vex simulations trouble, strong enough to at least calculate the crippling of the traveller, but didn't really work in the era of the game he was present for.
A Rasputin revived now would be kind of sick with what they are setting up with Maya. Different visions of what humanity should do without the witness bearing down. Maya wants a literal return to the golden age (and send shithole earth back to deal with the collapse). Clovis wants to rebuild humanity in his image, achieve his LUCA goals, and then you would have Rasputin / warmind expansionism through military force, with the guardian faction not wanting any of this shit and just wanting to secure their back yard and have their gentle kingdom ringed with spears

I wish we got to see the warsats fire at the traveler. and i wish rasputin was the one who did it

>>532685880
>His death created even more disjointed shit because Forsaken's Dreaming City repeated quests and Cosmodrome patrols still refer to Rasputin as a living entity.
Yeah and I can play devils lair and it refers to sepiks as an existing entity that hasn't been killed yet. Do you people not understand what a timeline is? Such a retarded complaint

>>532686723
Fuck now I'm imagining a post-witness villain where rasputin actually does get taken over by Clovis, or just goes rogue in general. Better than robodyke at least.

>>532684141
>want to remove a popular Russian-themed characted since the war in Ukraine began
Is that why they made Saint gay?

>>532687112
They should have Ana try to rebuild him again, fuck up, and make the multiple warminds we always should have had, and then have Ana court marshaled

>>532686409
>He doesn't work as a villain either since he could do the same to guardians.
Except now we have Maya murdering one of the Nine by waving her arms around, and then the witness could flick his finger and delete guardians/ghosts instantly.

>>532687168
No, that was just Brookes and the other writers being mentally ill

Did tassi stop getting cheques from bungie? He’s been on a roll lately

>>532687236
if by court marshaled you mean lock her in my guardian's basement then yes i agree

Hard to say if Bungie would have made the staff cuts they did before D1 came out, I think that had the worst impact on the studio. Staten probably would have stayed, there would be no reason for Jason Jones to tell him he doesn't like a Halo script. They would have still done the sneaky Jew shit of robbing people of their bonuses before they need to get paid out, but maybe not. Bungie is one of the most retarded AAA devs out there, but I think 343/Halo Studios is even more retarded. But Bungie was pretty excited to finally work on something else, they probably would have ran it into the ground but just from burnout, not total incompetence(only saying this because I think there's a chance that the staff would be much different today).

>>532690178
Pretty much this. Well said

Legendary gear is now broken up into 5 tiers. For armor, tier is what determines stat totals. For weapons, tier determines whether or not perks are enhanced and the number of them, with T5 giving 3 enhanced perks per column and enhanced magazines, barrels, and origin traits. The tier of your rewards is determined by a combination of at least 6 different criteria and the entire system is a fucking mess.

At this rate there'll only be like 10 maybe 20 teams that cleared it "legitimately".

What the total number of new raid completions, my team wants to do it tomorrow and I fucking dread it.

>>532699270
I'm honestly not shocked if there were people who legit fell into a cheated clear on LFG by coincidence and acted with no real malice. The same shit happened when people got filtered by Warpriest Challenge mode and how it was basically the huge cutoff of where a mass majority of those who attempted Contest KF Challenge mode dipped off. I remember the big one was the Nighthawk GG net limit hunters popping into raids to just auto delete him. Also you figure, steam chart jerking aside, there's fuck all for people actually can take the challenge of Contest mode and I'm not surprised carries were going nuts.

>>532699540
It fucking sucks. Use meta shit or get bent

>>532699865
I mean I was looking at a guy that had 2 contest clears both an hour long with him having like 700 kills and 3-6 deaths while everyone else had like 20+. Dude also didn't have the emblem equipped to try to hide it but you can just check his collections lol.

There has been many cases of cheaters just jumping into LFG teams and just deleting bosses so its probably why Bungie won't do shit about it beyond saying they'll do something then just announce a "ban wave" that most likely banned no-one. Bungie probably won't ban paying customers at this point right now honestly.

>>532699540
Is it even worth it? You need at least 4 clears to unlock all the feats you need to reliably get T3s, and most of the weapons are just okay. The fusion has good perks but is the awful horizontal frame, and the fact that Hatchling/Killing Tally is a possible roll on the rapid fire sniper is just fucking stupid.

>>532700453

Why do people keep talking about how good the story was when it was just deus ex machina garbage the entire time?

>Pull a man from the 60's, he is a translator and can speak an Alien language in two weeks
>The rest of the story is just villain of the week who is just a retarded bad guy just for the sake of being bad with Maya thrown in for no reason.
>We find out Ikora was a mom and worked with this random guy? Ok???
