[quote]The #destinytruthcast is a Bnet #feedback forum community podcast hosted by members of the community and featuring community members as guests.
The podcast was started to give everyday guardians a chance to do something they would probably never experience by being on a podcast and to give them the opportunity to have not just their thoughts, but their voices heard by Bungie as they discuss the game because everyone's opinions matter, not just those of the streamers with lots of followers.
Beyond that, it's allowed us to get to know the voices and personalities behind the gamertags we see on the forums and get to know each other in a way not possible in anonymous words on a page.
We aren't here to endorse or tear down Bungie or Destiny, but to give honest, balanced talk on this game. Thank-you and maybe we'll see you on an episode. [/quote]
What's up fellow Guardians :)

Today's topics include-

Once again thank-you to Rorschach9182 for joining us today and we thank you for listening and participating on the forums. We can also now be found on twitter @dstinytruthcast and online at www.destinytruthcast.com
As always, if you'd like to be on a future podcast, message us and let us know your thoughts on the game and what you think would be an important topic to come on and discuss. We look forward to hearing from you and can't wait to hear more voices on the next episode :)

Sweet, opening up my jobsite for a 3 AM concrete pour finally has given me some laptop time to comment! Great show DTC team, always enjoy listening. [b]-Festival of the Lost[/b] Shameful cash grab by Bungie. I was on a break last year when this came around the first time so I missed it. Don't like how the masks take away helmet stats and light level.. would it kill us to be able to put it OVER a helmet? I'm appalled by the fact that our microtransacitons are supposed to PAY for these events.. only for the event loot to be centered around additional micotranactions with no way to earn that loot in a viable way from game play. BULLSHIT. That's all I'll say on that. [b]-That damn broom[/b] Screw that broom bot. I'm ok with the broom just being an limited use. [b]-Dusty Engrams[/b] Pretty cool for Bungie to implement this. NOT COOL for its currency to be SILVER DUST and for it to be RNG. It's awesome Lost Sols that you were able to buy 4 of these and get a full hunter set. I threw $20 bucks at the screen for legacy IB gear for my Titan. I got 6 pairs of boots, only 1 with perks I like. I got 2 arms, none of which with perks I like. I got 2 chests, both with shit perks. I'm not very happy and want a refund. I knew what I was getting into, but I'm still very disappointed with the results. [b]-Skeleton Keys and Exotics[/b] Skeleton key drop rate is a joke. Bungie should be ashamed for implementing this, either on purpose or by accident, and should be equally as ashamed for doing NOTHING about it to date despite overwhelming feedback that it frankly blows goats. Exotics... My 3oC exotic engram drop rate is shit. I'm averaging one engram at 15+ 3oC tries, which is a mishmash of Ultra kills and PVP matches. That's unacceptable. Carnival, I don't know how you do it bro, but good for you. And I hate you! [b]-Spooky Trials[/b] Liked the new format. My ToO experience wasn't great though, I played it with some friends on Friday night and it was a slaughter. We kept on getting matched up with sweaty try hards we had no business playing against. Pretty much every team we played against was in a ToO clan. Get job matchmaking Bungie. [b]-Shotgun counters[/b] There are plenty of ways to counter shotgunners, you just got to Git Gud at using them. Myself included. Nothing is wrong there. [b]-ARs[/b] Never really tried any high impact low RoF ARs... probably because they are shit LOL. I have really been enjoying using the Raid Auto in PVE though... it's fantastic ANYWHERE. [b]-Favorite moments of the last week[/b] Expressed my favorite moment in another thread... More jumping into holes with BigTex!

voices heard? what a joke, lmao let me rephrase that, the pay attention to all the cry baby bullshit and thats just tip of the iceberg.

2 RespuestasYou've been fighting for the Destiny community since day 1, believe me, I'm a day 1 player too and I'd just like to say thank you. Now for the comment. I've given up trying get the Devs to change anything, they all they want is our money. Look at festival of the lost, last year you could get legendary mask without paying a cent, this year you can't even participate without paying. Bungie shouldn't be trying to get more money out of us, they should be trying to get more new players and to do that they need to do some massive damage control.

6 RespuestasWould be great to hear your opinion about this so called hibernation period Destiny is going into, and the fact that it coincides with the release of Call of Duty every year. Considering how now there is Titanfall 2 and Battlefield 1 to compete with Infinite Warfare and even a Modern Warfare remake. Most hardcore players will probably just do trials and the raid, or just one of them and be out. Also would be great to know what you think regarding the microtransactions, and how Destiny is the only game that is now completely 100% Rng for Premium rewards from the Treasure chest. Even Overwatch is letting players use their in-game currency to get the boxes. And also regarding the slight drought in content, in Rise of Iron. Yea we can run Archons Forge, and its fun for a while. And yea we can run strikes, but those hardly give any rewards. So basically we are left with Crucible and doing the Hard raid, which many people will not run anyways. I understand that content takes a long time to make, but Destiny could use some fixes that people have been asking for. Like increase drop of Skeleton keys.

2 RespuestasNice podcast once again. The festival of the lost, i think this is about Bungie ,they are lost themselves. To put rng on things you pay for is something that belongs in a casino not in Destiny. Young people play this game, my son does, he would spent money on this crap of i wouldnt stop him from doing so. Its getting really hard for me to keep playing this game,not for the game itself but more about how Bungie is trying to get every little penny out of it Its getting clearer and clearer with every dlc and update they give us. If this is the games future i am out. Cheers.

2 RespuestasAnd on a sidenote , D2 comes in the 3rd or 4rd part of 2017 if i am correct. How the hell is this game gonna survive this ?????

2 RespuestasFun episode. Great job folks!

1 Respuesta-Festival of the Lost Money grab. Quest is the same as last year (minus the Athion part). Can't get any drops with out paying real money. Farming candy is pointless after you have the shader. Drops rates are so low on the boxes you need to spend way more than you should to get what you want. All stuff should be chance drop (even if it's small) from the candy bags. -That damn broom It's different I say let them keep it. And add a horn that sounds like a witch's laugh. I mean it's the only sparrow that does not look like every other sparrow with a different paint job. -Dusty Engrams It's a neat idea. But lack of silver dust drops, unless you pay real money, makes it pointless to me. As for redwings's bring all things forward like this. Again pointless to me for the same reason. Let's also add if they bring say CE gear forward people will still complain. Why? The perks will have to be changed to match current gear. No more "Carrie more heavy". Problem is people want it brought forward but don't want it upgraded to match current gear. Same with the guns. -Skeleton Keys and Exotics Drop rate is to low on both at least for me. At 30 3oC today no excotic. Keys are just as bad and when I do use one I always get the class item so a waste. -Spooky Trials Cheep tactic to add a "scary" element during the event. Was fun the first few games then nothing but shootgun, camping, and more lag. -Shotgun counters Nurf Range, nurf amount of ammo, buff primary, or FIX LAG. Don't care witch but I'm tired of shooting a shootgunner while he charges across the map to get get a 1 hit kill or a delayed trade. Most of people's problem might be from lag in game. If I get killed by a shootgun legit cool I'm fine. If I put 2 fusion rifle blasts in you and you don't die while charging with a shootgun to 1 hit me is BS. -ARs some could use a tweak. But I don't know what would be best. -Favorite moments of the last week Getting killed by stumping my tow on a step. Really funny but how the heck did it happen.

To have their voices heard by bungie!?!? Isnt that what these forums are for!? [spoiler]What a crock of poopie![/spoiler] 😂

I thought I would give your POD cast a little listen...Not to be critical or anything as you were having a nice pleasant conversation, but you guys should consider having a time limit as 1:23 mins is over TWO HOURS! These things should last 30-45 mins tops! An episode of Westworld is shorter then the pod cast, which is what I put the pod cast on pause so I could go watch it. Other then that the audio was good, keep at it.

2 RespuestasBump, idk why more players don't use fusions to counter shotguns. Also AR were good when RoI dropped. When I was using the Titan exotic AR it was a flamethrower now it's...meh. They need to be more consistent with buffs to primary's. In other news, wow guardians, the broom? Smh, it's looks cool in all but fotl was a cash grab even. God I hope players learned from their mistakes when srl comes.

Editado por Orpheus49: 11/1/2016 3:53:45 PMAnother thing I forgot to mention in my response was redwing's comment on quicker reaction for shotty duels I may have the advantage of being young, but only in extremely cqc situations do i feel like it comes down to who shot first I grew up getting bullied, and in the hood of East LA. So im generally a very alert person, always looking out for someone to get attacked by. Sometimes its panick shotting that makes it so instant, or good anticipation, but whatever it was, it only really comes into play in super close quarters While reactions do come into play, [b]Movement[/b] is definitely the biggest fundamental of shotguning.
-
I agree that dusty engrams are great, but for silver dust at all completely soured the whole thing. If they did bring more forward that way I'd be very disappointed. But glad you see the problem with that economy.

6 RespuestasEditado por Kone19ps: 11/1/2016 10:32:38 PMGiving it a listen now! But quick comment isn't there already a sparrow kiosk? And I'm fairly sure the green sparrow was legendary purchasables only/3 free we got not bags of candy that was just bat swarms and jackolytes

1 Respuestai listened it was an interesting truthcast. I will listen in the future

8 RespuestasSols always input the best thing in #feedback it's always a pleasure to hear you podcast. Now I'll answer the fallowing -Festival of the Lost: I was excited before it drops the leaked info showed that they have input some effort this time to my surprise it was a copy paste of what happened last year but with micro transactions walls with no other option. You can get some ((not all)) of the old masks and Saladin mask that's it. It's a total flop and if SRL is going to be the same The majority of the players will move on. -That damn broom: one of the reasons I give up on #feedback is that there was 15+ trending posts about a freaken broom while there are tons of posts that can improve the game dramatically got totally ignored. -Dusty Engrams: that's the slippery slope upper limit and it's a -blam!-en scam to anyone who kept there Y1 armor in the vault you can get a better one (RNG) if you pay silver dust a currency that is designed to make you go and buy boxes so you can try your luck. This is a full priced game + DLC prices it's not a free-to-play game such as the mobile games or WarFrame. -Skeleton Keys and Exotics: they phantom nerf the drop rate back in April update for exotic engrams and they phantom nerf the drop rate the S.key and exotic engrams again I think that was there way of punishing the majority of the community because the minority took advantage of there system that they should've tested well in the first place. -Spooky Trials: I have nothing to say about ToO because I genuinely despise it. It created a fraction in the community back in HoW ((PvE/PVP player)) and I watched countless clans destroyed because of it. Currently PVP is suffering from net code and connection issues not to mention matchmaking that get you to fight ppl across the world and that's not acceptable the game been out for 2+ years and the connection got worst somethings needs to be done. BTW Dos, DDoS, lag switch and connection manipulation was a big issue back in HoW, TTK and currently the only reason Bungie have noticed is because there 1% start crying now ((thx to WBMM)) there top 1% odds to face the cheaters have increased is because there are ppl who can't get to the light house and they have no problem paying. -Shotgun counters: team shots, TLW, Trespasser, some good roll side arms, other shotguns, sniping, fusion rifle. The reason shotguns excels is because most maps are CQC ((not small, mid or large)) expect a few and the mobility aspects of the game make it easier to charge someone not to mention faulty radar. BTW only one type of shotguns dominates if they got that God roll other then that it's a hit or miss. -ARs buff high impact crit dmg by 3-5 hp and buff total dmg of the mid impact by 2% and see what happens. I really like the game but they are destroying it one step at a time.
