Edited by Powermix24: 12/4/2016 5:35:28 PMI want to play Destiny again . I really do , But the connection in PVP is broken and ruled by red bars . I like to play again , but doing the same strike that i have done 9000 times over 2 years doesn't have me convinced . PvP needs to be fixed , i would take overpowered snipers all day everyday over red bars .
-
So nothing new but buy silver hahahaa
-
Edited by Lorax: 12/4/2016 10:52:51 PMDo you get Icebreaker from RNG? (Like the Thorn)
-
Bump.
-
Rumors are flying around that dubious volley will secretly be added in a black spindle style quest. (Possibly in the iron tomb mission, they may have accidentally leaked it with the, "some missions have secret rewards" tip that appeared a month ago.
-
That Taken Spindle tho
-
I was really hoping SRL would actually stay in it's own matchmaking playlist and not this private match bullshit. Bungie knows how to play their consumers. They know how much backlash they got from Festival of the Cost but they don't give a shit as long as they get more money. Can't blame them for that though, but at least have some -blam!-ing respect for us. Instead they go and add an entire armor set behind a pay wall.

Edited by Meekahel: 12/4/2016 9:51:23 PMNice post OP. As for the content, it's not too bad... but too little too late. My ass it took all this time to "relaunch" Ice Breaker. Every single updates they just give a little... drop by drop. i understand creating content takes a while... but Bungie sucked 100% of the time the 3 years the game has been running. Still no old raid coming back (which shouldnt be useless to begin with. but waiting 2 years to play what i paid for? no thanks). And I thought I heard racing were staying forever... it is.. but only throught private matches.... how retarded is this. That one activity I was actually looking foward. Maybe bungie is scared of splitting the already thin multiplayer community. And strikes score? Not bad but a bit late isn't? And why are we still playing the same 3 or 4 strikes over and over again?!?!?!?!?! I am not convinced.. I like to pay microtransaction if I find myself something cool to buy... but I think I'll save my money and maybe some storage on my ps4 as I am soon to uninstall this game. It was ok at start... but so poorly delivered that I can't help it but to complain wgenever this game does something new. RIP Destiny
-
Thanks! Do you know: -Will the new ornaments be attainable after SRL? -If so, will they still be individually attainable from Eververse? -What are the [character]'s Tags?
-
Sorry m8, but FFXV caught me dead on the tracks and plus I'm a first timer to FF games.

Edited by Intoxicated ODST: 12/4/2016 9:41:29 PMThe thing i was most excited for... the New festive / krampus lookin armor is locked behind rng dawning packages... [spoiler]BUNNNNNGGGIIIEEEE NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PPPLLLLLEEEEAAAASSSSSEEEE[/spoiler]
-
Will the old shaders be coming back from last years srl?
-
I might get the book this time. I'm not too sure. Depends on the rewards. What was cool was that weird snowglobe engram looking helm

You sir are doing a great job. Thank you.
-
Pay to win yet again....i bought 10 of those Festival of the Cost tresure boxes to get doubles of the same shit....let us buy shit individually instead of relying on RNG...i feel like im playing poker machines here at bungie
-
I've got a feeling I'll spend around 10-15$ this time, didn't spend any on Halloween that was bs, I know it's all cosmetic but there's 5 really cool looking sparrows I'd be willing to pay for, and 5 out of like 12 is better than the Firy Wolfmask 1/100 odds pretty much
-
I'm quite excited for this. I love it when the tower decorates. SRL has been a thing I've been excited for ever since it was rumored it'll come back. I took a break from Destiny last year so I missed it, and have been wanting to race against my friends and strangers ever since I first heard about it. The only thing I'm not that excited about is Strike Scoring. The way it sounds is if you wanna do a SIVA crisis strike or Nightfalls, you have to participate in Strike Scoring. This rubs me the wrong way. I thought Strikes were suppose to be cooperative? My fear is that Strikes will devolve into people trying to rack up the highest score possible- to complete Zavala Bounties- instead of helping their downed teammates or focusing on the strike specific objectives just to farm adds. And it is a legitimate fear. If Variks and his bounties and sigil are anything to go by, Zavala will have similar score based bounties, and completing these bounties are the only way to obtain the quest to get Y3 Icebreaker. And that's not even mentioning Zavala's record book! Of course only time will tell what Strike Scoring will bring. I really hope I don't have to drag a 2nd friend into Destiny more or less against his will just so I can have a relatively friendly game. And here's to hoping Zavala and his book will have an entry for reviving allies or other cooperative moves. Because I don't want to have to wait 30 seconds to get back into the Strike because GitGud69 is busy farming adds to get gold tier and 200+ kills.
-
Are the quests and bounties permanent, or do we have to do them at the same time as SRL?
-
do we need rise of iron to access the dawning?
-
I really like the Bitfire and Firefly sparrows.
-
Does anyone know if we'll be able to complete the SRL book from last year??? Would be really awesome if we could
-
In the will of crota section you have info on taniks...
-
So just ice breaker to look forward to then.
-
Those strike revamps are going to be nightmares with matchmaking...
