Destiny

Everyone kept thinking they'd probably sell it before the TK. I didn't really think they would.

Should have known when Freak got his 3rd or 4th during a nightfall this week.
 
I agree. Everyone should be able to enjoy it.

I don't think it should be sold every day, but there's plenty of long time players that have never gotten it. And it's sort of wraps up the first year.
 
Its funny the bungie forums have people freaking out and the destiny reddit people are happy it. Just because someone got it in a RNG drop does not mean they deserve it more than someone who bought it. They just got lucky.

Friendly heads up/reminder....

Destiny reveal on twitch today at 2 Eastern. Looks like today's stream is about your character and how xp/light/armor/etc works in TK.

Next week is the dreadnaught (sp?).

Week after is Court of Oryx.
 
I watched the live stream yesterday.
Bigger vault which is what I've been wanting.
It kind of showed how you could employ a gun you may not like into a gun you like to make it stronger.
The Gunsmith, Crucible and others would have their own bounties.
The stream lasted about an hour so there's a lot of good stuff that's going to happen.
You have to be level 25 to play TTK..
It also talked about the more experience you have the better...

Basically looking forward to The taken King....

I'm sure Kwebb and Dr RosenRosen can describe better then I.....

No I can't haha. Did not watch the stream.

I really like everything for the most part.

My favorites are:

vanguard/crucible marks will be rolled into one (legendary marks, I believe) and they can be transferred between character.

Crucible will have a bounty where if you complete all 5 for the week you will receive nightfall rewards.

Interested to see if any of the current weapons will be able to hang with the new Taken King guns.

I enjoyed year one of Destiny and put in a ton of time with it but it feels like we Beta tested the game (which is okay to me).
 
I've got a few minutes to waste. Here's my thoughts on yesterday's twitch...

Main things...The Destiny grind returns for those that had everything. Oh boy, they have really turned up the grind for folks that haven't had to in awhile.

Marks....grind...you can only hold 200 at a time....and they are across all three characters now. Grind. Good news, you can earn more than 200 in a week...allowing you to grind more.

Weapons...your year 1 weapons will garbage for the most part now. So, collect new weapons then grind your way to leveling them up. Now you can combine guns to make a more powerful gun....which means more grinding.

Exotics....you don't have to earn them again, but your current ones are garbage. Again, let me introduce this mechanic called grinding. Cause that's what you're looking at for all your exotics again.

Bounties....Holy cow, keeping track of all available bounties is a job in itself. There's approx 2,000 bounties available. Hmmm, seems like to knock them all out you'd have to get your grind on.

Vault - more space. Great, I suppose. I've never really had a vault problem myself but I do have to clean up my gear on occasion. You don't need to keep every gun and armor piece.

I foresee a lot of grinding, which is what I enjoyed about the first year. I'm not crazy about re-do'ing exotics and ditching old weapons, but I'm ready to play it and see what's in store.

The grind is back for folks bored to tears in Destiny currently.

Also, if you're interested, here's a 3.5 min video of all the info in yesterday's hour long broadcast.

Got a couple questions which I figure I can ask here. Going to be upgrading to the Xbox1 finally.
1. Will my games on both transfer, Destiny being the main one? (do i have to purchase it again)
2. Will my progress/characters transfer even if I have to buy the game, and dlc's, again?
3. I am guessing that the rest of my Xbox Live stuff we all be fine./?

tried googling this stuff and except for the Live I couldn't find a clean answer.

Pretty sure no character progress will carry over and you will have to re-buy everything.

In case anyone is interested....

No more Nightfall bonus XP for the week after TK drops. Also changed that it doesn't send you orbit if everyone dies and they added a 30-sec timer for revives on your dead teammate.

Weekly heroic was mixed up a bit.

Next update drops Sept 8th. That's the rebalancing update. Then, Taken King the week after.


ps.....do the Weekly now for the coins. And do it the next 2 weeks.
