Oldest 3 man fireteam ever - 211 years.
I had the pleasure tonight to participate in what l believe is the oldest fireteam to ever play Destiny or perhaps any other video game. I'm 73, Coldstoneshoki_9 is 72 and IronDuke-177 is the youngster of the group at 66. We total 211 years. By the end of this year we will add to the total as IronDuke will be 67 in November and Coldstoneshoki will be 73 in December. We played 2 Heroic strikes and 2 320 strikes and some Archon's Forge. It make take us older Guardians longer and we die a lot more than you younger Guardians but we can still get it done.
So have fun, don't get discouraged when things are hard and not going your way and never stop gaming.
I did ask permission from both Guardians to use their gamer tags in this post.
Edit: some Guardians have replied to the post by questioning my motives, that l am an attention seeker, which is a valid argument. From my perspective, as someone who has been kicked from events, left behind when l lost my way, ignored in clans and refused help when l asked for it, here is my reply:
The point of the post is to make the Community aware that there are many more "mature" gamers playing than is widely known. That players don't have to think of quitting when they reach at certain age, it's o.k. to keep on gaming whatever you age may be. That even as time takes it's toll on your body and reflexes video games can be fun and achievements are not out of reach.
I was fortunate enough to be chosen as the Community Focus for July 20, 2015 and through that experience I learned that there are many older and middle aged gamers playing who contemplate quitting because they think there is some kind of stigma associated with being an older gamer or they feel they are being a drag on their fireteam because their KTD is too low. They don't want to be "that guy" who no one wants on their team. I want to encourage them to keep playing. That there are gamers who are older than they are who aren't giving up and that gaming can be enjoyable even when their minds and bodies are slowing down. Aren't these forums supposed to be a place the Community can share achievements and not just rip each other apart?

Awesome job guys! Don't listen to the haters! You give me hope. . . And by the way, I'm 33, and have been booted from fire teams for being "too old". You are lucky to have friends your age that share the same interests. Keep up the good work guardians!!!!

Do you guys set aside the metamucil can for sessions? Or take breaks in between to do prune juice shots? I'm kidding. It's awesome that you guys play the game; I'm 35 and have kids and still play games, just grew tired of destiny. Can't wait to see what games they have when I'm retired and your age

2 OdpowiedziWhy are there so many old people playing video games? If you are over 40, you should have more important things to be doing, like writing your will or planning your funeral...
