It was completely unenjoyable. Not the gameplay, mind you, but with the experience using LFG to find people and then actually playing with those people.
I had no idea what I was doing and saw that someone needed people for Templar checkpoint in VOG Hardmode. I joined up with 5 other people just to have 4 quit after the Templar part. They all ran off into some cave and grabbed an exotic chest. I didn't even know that was a thing. So, I missed out on that exotic chest. No big deal, that's my fault. Then It was me and another guy trying to show me how to jump from one disappearing platform to another. We get to whatever the hell the next area is and we proceed to get just murdered over and over again. Keep in mind, I have no idea what the hell I'm doing.
So this guy jumps on LFG trying to track down more people. One guy hops into our fireteam, says "thanks for the checkpoint" and leaves. Classy guy.
Next, a buddy of the last remaining guy joins up and they proceed to start talking about porn the entire time as we get nothing accomplished. After 45 minutes of just dying repeatedly at the gatekeeper part I turned off the Xbox and did something else.
I have no words for this experience.
EDIT: UPDATE: I was lucky enough to find a group of guys to run me through normal and then hard modes of VOG. I can't say I was able to contribute much, but they never complained and helped me as much as they could. Hard mode was much more difficult to get through and I'm pretty sure I died more than anybody else. But, these guys got me through it and never bitched. To those guys, thanks

2 OdpowiedziI run vog hard every week. If you need help let me know. At first it's hard to understand all of the patterns each person must do.

6 OdpowiedziWell I think you did a couple things wrong. You shouldn't have joined a checkpoint nor a checkpoint on hard for your first time. Also you didn't miss out on that chest. It'll be there if you get back to that point. I'm always looking for new good players to teach so let me know what console you're on and we'll see if we can get you in with a much better team.

I'm glad you learned your lesson. The lesson and point I'm making: Get onto lfg, select NORMAL and run the raid first. I don't care it's level 26. The mechanics and teamwork in VoG is more important then you being able to shoot something. Anyone with experience in VoG would have told you that.
