  • That's really nice, still can't play Destiny so that means it doesn't matter how nice the new expansion is I'm not buying it. So instead of telling us all the cool things you got planned, why not fix the game first? The update you pushed through to fix your beaver issue made it so multiple game consoles sharing a LAN can't join a fire team, so I buy 2 copies of Destiny and 2 Xbox ones and can't play your game,. All I get is "we are aware of this issue and are working on it" messages, you would think that as someone who is willing to spend twice as much as the average customer might get more of an answer than a robo Pat on the head.

          • TBH, I'm still more excited for skyrim remastered. I agree that the amount of content you will be getting for $30.00 is pretty fair. But it still appears to be a continuation of the TTK model. Sure G-horn, Thorn, etc. are coming back. New Khovstov looks cool. But where are the endgame guns that are going to make you go "HOLY @#$@#$!!!!" when you first shoot them- and make you scream that in a good way?! Where is the loot that is going to make you scream and throw your headset and dance around like the silly gamer geeks we are when we get it? Moments like this.... [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWTAI6171vI[/url] Yes, RNGesus was BRUTAL in Y1. Yes, many players ground their butts off and didn't get one. But the fact of the matter is that for those that did, this is is the kind of joy the drop brought. And if Bungie didn't keep making things obsolete, we can have that Y1 system again, because on a long enough timeline, people SHOULD eventually get one of those guns. I don't want to hear arguments about it becoming LFG requirements. People ALWAYS have LFG requirements. They just change with times (LL335 + ToM/Spindle + Oryx Challenge Emblem ring a bell?). Bottom line, we need some incredible loot to chase again. The kind of loot that will make us scream like little girls when we get it. The kind of loot that will greatly decrease the grind in PVE when we do get it. The kind of difference-making weapon that G-horn was pre-nerf (and the kind of weapon I anticipate G-horn will not be in Y3). And it should ONLY be available through RNG. The chase for elite PVE loot is what keeps us playing PVE endgame content. I've only completed Kingsfall 12 times. It's not because I can't do it, but because there's no reason to do it after you finish all your challenge modes. The loot is trash for the most part and you can't get anything ELSE in the raid (other than raid gear) that you can't get elsewhere. So why even play it? In the time it takes to run a raid, I could run several strikes and possibly get a decent number of exotics. And even then, why play? Loot from strikes, raids, etc. They're all just going to be used for infusion fuel anyways, and most of my stuff is LL 330-335. That 5 difference in light level isn't going to make such a huge difference that it motivates me to keep playing.

            • Why did you make this? People have the Internet. They will mostly likely already know since everyone in destiny is apparently a YouTube star which means everyone already posted videos on this. This post is pointless. You wasted your time

                      Still no optional matchmaking or in-game LFG feature. We're approaching Year 3 and they still haven't figured something out? Disappointing.

                            They also just posted an article discussing the new Khvostov Exotic. I made a video for that above discussing its perks in detail and how to get it IF you prefer video format to reading. and if you enjoying reading heres the GI link: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/05/life-of-an-exotic-the-return-of-destinys-first-weapon.aspx Either way I'm stoked for that gun and cant wait for Rise of Iron. I hope you guys and gals all enjoy it too and maybe if you like my stuff I'll take any support I can get LOL. [spoiler]Also about my content, I'm just doing all this for fun. Its a hobby for me and I enjoying getting better and learning Photo/Video editing and I don't monetize my stuff and make money off it. The nice thing for you is NO ads before or during my stuff. Hope you all enjoy. Thanks again Guardians [/spoiler]

                              I hope its custom matches / private matches and you can pick The mode The number of players Toggle if light level matters or not It would be perfect to have casual games with your buddies AND a training ground to get better at specific modes without ruining those who are trying to get a skirmish or [b]rift[/b] win in regular crucible. Imagine a custom private match where it's Elimination 1v6 Light level matters You versus an entire 6-man fireteam to make those 1v6 montages lol OR if bungie's servers could handle it: Custom match on First Light (huge moon map) [b]64 vs 64[/b] [b]Mayhem Control[/b] Oh the fun we would all have lol

I'll wait to see what RoI really turns out to be before I delete this app and am done with destiny, and Bungie, for good. Not holding my breath RoI will actually make me want to come back to Destiny.
