By Random Ass Username Go To PostIf you need to get Legend for the solstice armor or resets for the ghost but at this point eh. Tokens are 2 for an L, 5 for a win. If you can guarantee wins I guess it's worth it to save up for next season but otherwise why torture yourself.I am stocking up all materials and tokens for Forsaken, the economy is getting an overhaul and the mats and event tokens are going to be useful for hoarding those mods esp gunsmith stuff.
Right now for me in quickplay, carry people. The other team has bronze - diamond too. Random but usually still more even than IB.
Iron Banner, my team is averaged out between whatever bullshit insane ELO I got myself to with my team mates being the lowest and we gotta play a premade of the middle between those two. Also technically I gotta carry but it's really NOT happening there.
But in both I basically have to outkill the person with .25 kd at the end of the game.
Also both are laggy as shit right now.
Crucible is just the opposite of sense. All of it. The lockout mechanic is even more wtf on the pile of shit that is control.
I see why they did it.
If you want to take all three zones you need to split up, so no more blobbing together
It creates a defend/attack mini game in the right conditions if the other isnt stacked

theres gotta be someway to cheese the solstice helmet super kill thing. I have zero patience for the minuscule bump you get per super kill this is stupid. Played like 3 games with 3.0 effeciency at the end barely got 2 supers off and shit only went up to 10%

By Random Ass Username Go To PostWhat subclass?warlock, arc
Mayhem gets you supers real quick but the new 4v4 thing means you gotta time it right, especially on certain maps. Gotta find em and hope your team mate doesn't pop theirs too.
It's a headstart. Hate the hunter chest. I turned the ornament back into the other. Too much cloth wrap.
I've gotten my warlock and titan resplendent but I don't think I have it in me go through it all again for my huntress
Bungie about to fix Comp and they're providing another Redrix Claymore since only the most tryhardy, masochistic and streamer types managed that Glory bullshit feat. People are pissed. I am chuckling to myself.
About to just nut up and sit in crucible until this helmet is done, please say a prayer for me and warn your children. Tell my story.
D2 matchmaking is trash. You're probably more likely to lose if you're any good at the game because it expects you to carry a bunch of lvl 8s to victory.
They did the same for rift when before TTK
Then again I wouldn't be surprised if pre orders are weak. There are so many games coming out vying for players attention this autumn. Even though D2 rentered the charts in the US.

I hate control so fucking much. I just don't how to explain how fucking stupid i find the whole venture.
So Forsaken might be another taken king?. I know nothing about the game but I finally decided to open up the copy + expansion pass that came with my pro. Sounds like the game is apparently worth playing so may finally try it out. No idea which class to go with though.
Doing a quick read I was either thinking Warlock or Hunter. But guess I’ll try out Hunter first.
Edit: Started a human Titan. Just beat the first campaign mission to unlock the hub/Co-op.
Btw I’m on PS4. I’m guessing most of slaent is on PS4 too?.

By DY_nasty Go To PostThat had me hype no lieSame.
So I can already see why this game can be so addicting. Will continue to play through it this week and I'm already tempted to get Forsaken already. Then I guess I'll wait and see for the annual pass.
Look at these buffs, except box breathing.

By Bold 2 in One Go To Postwhat is wrong with what he said?Because it's the same shit they said during Destiny 1? We are in the exact same cycle as we were in D1, and D2 was supposed to not repeat the same mistakes.
But it's just more "mea culpa" going on five years now.
to be 100%, anyone who's been around since D1 and isn't tired of this shit is being disingenuous
everything they've patched out for reasons, they patched in for reasons

There needs to be a destiny cycle image in the same mold as the COD one. "Games trash". "Wow Bungle". "Trailer is 🔥". "I'm byke" .
34/35 GB on XB1/PS4
