Vault Of Glass

So I saw some of the guys in the "Beautiful Basterds" clan talking about the Vault of Glass, I havent heard alot about this but through the grapevine they said it took some MLG player 16 hours just to get through the entrance?? Thats crazy.......give me feedback on this and tell me what its all about. Sounds like I definitely wont be braving this mission alone.

    • http://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=12068 Took Bungie guys (DeeJ's group) 45 minutes just to open the door to the raid. The guys who made the game took almost an hour just to start the raid due to lack of communication. For the info on the clan that played it: "These folks are shooter players, not -- for the most part -- Raiders from other games. They are a group of people used to working together primarily in competitive multiplayer games, and hadn't been exposed to an experience like this before. " "We arranged the 24 visitors into four teams" " In two days of playing - where they broke for meals and had some ramp up time with the game on day 1, here's what happened: Two groups made it to the final encounter. Neither group defeated it. One group made it to the final encounter, but had to be skipped through an earlier encounter. One group washed out and elected to go back to playing Strikes, Missions and Patrols."

    • No. 16 hours to fail, 45 minutes to open the door. It was a collective of 24 esports players and bungie employees broken into 4 teams.

    • 16 hours is a load of bullshit. I don't care what they say. It would be a design flaw to have content lasting that long.

      • Give you feedback? You mean keep the hype train discussion going?? Google that shiz. It's a tiny 45 min or less strike that will be figured out quickly in the first week. There's no revolution. It's an endgame loot dispensing module you will tire of running and rerunning and running and rerunning. Because remember, this is a loot based game where golden gear can only be equipped one weapon one armor. You've lost the incentive for elite sets of gear aka Diablo 3. You won't be farming for Jade for six months.

        • I wonder what stops the team of six from keeping one Player back in case everybody wipes so they can wait for the respawn ?

          • You have a week before your progress resets. And you can leave with your group anytime. Not to mention i heard that your first playthrough on normal will take the longest.

            Deej played the test run and took 45mins to open the front door. Another 2 teams made it to the end but gave up at the final encounter because it was deemed too hard. This took 16 hours to reach. The 2 groups that made it that far had never played raids or used Co-op methods because they were the best solo players, when they were told to work as a team they totally stuffed up but pushed to the end. I also like to point out i know the 2 clans who went into the vault and the other 2 groups that weren't in a clan, so i can tell you that clan you mentioned did not test run the VoG. On top of that MLG players suck at Co-op, period. More info here: http://www.bungie.net/7_Bungie-Weekly-Update---08292014/en/News/News?aid=12068

          • It took them 45 minutes. Over the entire play through it took em 16 hours and they didn't beat the end.

          • With checkpoints this is very reasonable. The amount of hours logged prior to being able to attempt the Vault of Glass will dwarf the 16 hour mark. The biggest difficulty will be coordinating times to get the group together during the week before it resets.

          • It is going to be tuff but Dusten L. Said that it'll take nowhere near 45 minutes to enter, and he said that if a fireteam wanted to they could go in one do a lil bit of the vault then re-group later that week and clear it. Vault will be reset every Tuesday.

              • Seeking Xbox clan members We are guardians of the Order for dragons. We will rule the worlds of destiny one step at a time. We are a group of xbox gamers who play throughout the day. So no matter when you play you will have a firefight team,pvp team. One goal we have is to have 200 clan members by 9-9-14. Our main goal is to defeat the vault of glass before anyone else on both xbox systems. leader SORINMARKOV4 co leaders ShogunOfPeace, and Loganator97. rules must be 18+, unless 2 of the 3 leaders approve. You must have a working mic. Main reason for this is we will need to work as a group for raids,pvp,fireteams and for the vault of glass. You must speak English. See you on the battlefields of destiny!!! http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Xbox/117785

                  • It wasn't an MLG team, Urk posted that it was a team lead by Deej. Which tells you that substandard players can not only get there but expect a long grind to get anywhere in it. We all know that games developers suck at playing games. A well geared and coordinated team will probably on take about 4 hours to clear. There are only so many mechanics that each boss can have : Adds - addition foot troops Weak spots Run and gun - either chasing the boss or running from Switch use - something needs activating either to protect the group or remove a shield/buff from the boss. At the moment I cant think of too many more mechanics they can actually use with aggro tables for actual tanking or actual healers the general rule is going to be avoid all incoming damage. So we are unlikely to see massively complex bosses that are more memory game than actual boss, a la titan hard and extreme from FF:ARR

                      I call BS. I'm sure it's hard but 16 hours is ridiculous. If that's the case you could do a raid a day and that's it and still get 8 hours sleep so anyone with a job (which a lot of the people who will pay for this will have jobs others their parents will) can only realistically do a raid on their days off and it will take their entire day off to do so. Then the kids who get it, get done with school between 3-4pm are only looking at 6-8 hours of gaming if their parents are completely lax on them doing school work so only time they can do raids is the weekend and once again it will take their entire weekend to do 2. Plus to top it all off if you fail half way through you're done for the day. No way this is the case I think someone's just trying to hype up the difficulty. Raids: Start at lvl 25 at the 1st difficulty lvl (meaning you unlock higher lvl raids) and are meant to be repeated several times because they want you to come back. Who wants to go back when you die 8 hours into it and have to start over Not me. NightFall activities: Extremely Exotic rewards "The weekly Nightfall activity is something that pushes all the way out as far as the leveling allows you to go in Destiny. So it ends up occupying at the far end of the spectrum: this extremely high gameplay investment challenge. Like it's both the toughest guys we can throw at you that's going to require the best gear, and it's going to have a bunch of modifiers on it that make it even harder.” To me the weekly Nightfall is what you should be worried about not the raids and the only proof that this has happened is on a forum show me a video or a bungie employee talking about it and I'll believe it otherwise it's just heresay

                      • From what I've heard, raids like Vault of Glass' are in stages/chapters. I guess it might be possible to do them all back to back. I'm guessing there's check points you can start at...
