#RapeBungie
Notice who the first reply is whenever that OP image is used. What a pathetic faggot that loser is.
>>538209624Sony needs to rape the already thrice raped
Monolith's Fall reminds me a lot of Destiny 1 raids in overall design, balance and length, specifically Y1 raids like Vault and Crota.If you told me it came out with House of Wolves I would have believed you.
>>538208791I hope the power level requirement doesn't get too crazy I'm trying to break 60k but it's getting kinda hard to find stuff that increases it
>>538209726>power 58kWhy are our modern guardians so weak
>>538209915we traded power in favor of using subclasses and weapon types freely
QRD on how #rapebungie started trending? Did dmg just Streisand effect it?
>>538210449Dmg made a long thread just to say>stop making rape jokes some of us did actually get raped at the company so it's insensitive :((((((
130 gig download for Destiny 2 only for me to uninstall when you cant be white.
>mobile game made by chinese developers>one of the main levels is set in china>2 of the 3 broken characters are asian>main bad race and raid enemies are alien bugs>most of the legendary weapons are made by a chinese aero space company
>>538210815Errrmmm what?
>>538209391Soon
what are the chances Bungie retcons the meaning of "Young Wolf" into being named after Wolf from Rising?
>>538210815Grow up or get out chud. Zero tolerance for that shit here.
>>538212125>grow upthis game is rated T for Teen
>>538211754Bungie refuses to acknowledge even Rise of Iron, they hate and are jealous of anything they didn't work on themselves.
>>538212241So grow up and realize the error of your ways
IB in Rising is so miserable as newcomer. all these faggots with exotic weapons... one or two guys dominate entire lobby, lul. every match
>>538211170Russia alone must have had thousands of those guns sitting in unlaunched exodus ships
>>538212802But enough about Trials
I think it's time for OP to have more link about Destiny rising, at least the official website and an OP image about Rising.Destiny rising is here to stay, 80% of the /dg/bros play it and desu, it's just too soul kino to ignore it
>>538210449A guy said it on twitter so they banned his destiny account for it, then it started trending, and then dmg made it way worse.
>>538213851>they banned his destiny account for itHe can just get the hack that unbans you now lmoa
>>538211754Could be pretty based or Ikora in the Tower whispering when you approach her, “You remind me of a young wolf I once knew.”
>>538214007Doesn’t exist according to Bungie, their tools say so
>>538214226>believing binglelmaoing at ur life
>>538211170>retard that hasn't been on the moon for the past 10 years
>>538210449>Did dmg just Streisand effect it?I think it's deliberate on his part. It's like Trump, when he wants us to forget that he's on Epstein's list, he announces something completely stupid or exaggerated so that we talk about something other than his taste for teenagers. Bungie has been delivering bad news for months, so let's divert attention. That way, there will be lots of articles about that and not about the disastrous quality of D2.Let's wait and see if it works.
>>538214665That was basically the EoF lead up. We give approved content creators access to make their heckin approved video blitz, it was info that 100% Bungie should've been on top of and the ones talking about it, when live streams come out there's info that starts to sorta contradict shit that even content creators said, and things Bungie downplayed("we want harder bigger end game content be more rewarding, don't have to run 1 thing over"), the entire thing was a charade to overlook just how much of the core game was being gutted and they were holding up tent poles with overhyping basic bitch QOL features. Also remember when there was that (probably dmg on the account) D2 teams twitter freaking out on Tassi when he had an article that was like "uhh we still don't have answers on x,y,z," and then the tweet is all "ERM it's actually this, your article is misinformation!!" as if Paul was the asshole for pointing out the info was unclear and left more questions. At the time the only clarification was in this stupid freakout reply tweet to Tassi, and iirc it was about everything that fell in Ops that again downplayed how little of the game was going to even be in the Ops system.
sony will #rapebungie soon

SIVA saves the game in ~3 days
Lets fucking GOOOOO
Siva raped Bungie
>>538217404whoever came up with the idea for siva must have stolen ling-ling's head or something
Can you wellskate with the new sword? You can’t right? Because it’s a wave frame?
*yawns*
>>538218468light attack skating only
I started watching X-Files and I've come across a decent amount of ideas/story objects that bear almost an inspired resemblance in Destiny
>>538220002That’s unfortunate
it's uphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CH7MwTv0GU
>>538220639>mrs. potato head defending bungie, praying for a shill slotI hate this stupid bitch
what if Maya/Conductor is going to the Plaguelands to steal Golden Age tech and wake up Siva with her Command (module) echo, which would be the finale for the season?feel like it's way to optimistic, but maybe the reason they haven't showed us Siva in the Plaguelands is cause Maya is going to reawaken it by the end the leads into the third dlc, as I assume Renegades will be something more Guardian-related to learn a new power.and I was thinking about new abilities, considering it's Star Wars themed I assume if Bungie were to introduce a new ability it'd be kinetic, but I think we're due for another dark subclass. maybe kinetic could be a dark subclass but idk if they're even going by darkness/light subclasses anymore
>>538220639Kek Les is hilarious. Literally within seconds of cross saying bungie shit the bed again he just has the biggest fucking smile ever while Liv was like "But then they recovered!"
>missing last encounter of monolith's fall>if i go Attal, people dont do damage and cry its my fault despite me keeping them alive more consistently than Tan-2 and they also take 4 business days to kill the precision shinkas if i dont use her>if i go Jolder, people don't wanna help kill the scorch cannon fallen>if i go Gwynn, people get mad i dont wanna go inside the teleporters (they caused a wipe after shooting the wrong thing again)my god...
>>538221163>maya fucks up and gives us a siva subclassit's the only way I'd ever forgive her
>>538221530I hope Les becomes the most popular Destiny when Cross finally quits.
got this as a popup, for next season i assume?
how the fuck do destiny players get overwhelmed by the simplest of tasks man? I'm about to lose my fucking shit
>>538224178They're poor innocent Dads who have four minutes per month to play while supporting his wife's eight kids.
>>538221163there is no siva. for whatever reason (probably legal ones), they are incapable of ever bringing that content back. perhaps sony might pull it off somehow when they remaster destiny 1 for a cash grab.
>>538224597>>(probably legal ones)>some guy on the dev/writing team brings up bringing back SIVA into the story/gameplay>Allison and Tyson are about to agree and approve it when a bunch of G-men walk in and escort that dev guy away, murmuring something to Allison and Tyson before swiftly leaving>Allison and Tyson explain to the rest of the team that there will be no more discussion of SIVA moving forward
>>538224178Believe it or not WOW players are even worse
>>538223264No it's happening right now anon, load in.
>>538225994kino
>>538224597>they are incapable of ever bringing that content back.They lost the content. Just like they lost the Red War and Forsaken campaigns.
Gwynn got all the hype but Attal is officially our girl!
i'm just gonna be honesti don't understand how decals work
>>538228287it's shit you can put on your character's armor like a sticker
>>538228862i get that part but the whole polishing system makes no sense to me
>>538229185I don't get it either, I guess it looks better when it's fully upgraded or something idk
>Champions are tied to weapon class>Having the wrong weapon class still lets you chip down and stun the Champion>You have a clear indicator of how much durability is left on the Champion before it's stunnedEXPLAIN WHY THE CHINESE BUILT A BETTER DESTINY IN A CAVE WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS.
is Estella coming out next week or have I been deceived?
>>538228287Get the N decal and put it in Ikora if it's still available.
>>538230684Way ahead of you
new auto secret exotic?
>do sunsetting in destiny 1 nobody liked it and they had to walk it back>Do sunsetting in destiny 2 >nobody liked it and they had to walk it back>maraflop has seasonal resetting as a feature>nobody liked itSeriously, why do they keep trying to force this?
>>538230886probably a legendary
>>538224597I always wondered about association and “ownership” stuff in this game series because I even think back to just how physically long we went specifically not getting CoO and Warmind’s IB ornaments for and just how Comp ornaments, the y1 Vanguard shit, and the Faction rally sets as well from the DLCs. For all the random ass shit that has gotten repeated it just never made sense why they really were you had to be there fuckers over it when it’s like small time shit. Even the Faction Rally ornaments for Crest of Alpha Lupi, Eye of Another World, and Knucklehead, did eventually come back last year or so. Even when you have these dick riders say how Bungie’s got plenty of assets and things they could use, why not just tack in shit that hasn’t been seen in ages for no barrier or cost.
>>538221530Is Liv fishing for a job like I get not trying to circlejerk a dead horse but like I have never seen such apologism and downplaying unprompted practically for this shit, like even Skarrow would tell her to chill. Les rules and his points on Marathon were sane.
>>538230924They didn't walk it all back ;_;
>>538231794Pocket infinity would have been a kino edge of fate exotic
>>538231794>called pocket infinity>is kept in pocket for infinity
did they save the game? the player numbers have been raising for 3 days straight
>>538232737people doing last-minute seasonal stuff before it gets wiped on Tuesday
Having that last sky burners guy survive and we end up extracting him from the dreadnaught would have been an one of the easiest slam dunk instantly cool character introduction dungie could have ever done.
>>538232737I'm showing the game to a friend, we are having a great time so far doing Shadowkeep. He already likes the game even though being a new light absolutely fucking sucks thanks to Bungie. He is even considering buying some dlc. We are gonna make it hopebros
>>538209391I’m not a /dg/poster but I want you all to know how much I hate seeing this disgusting image at the top of the catalog. Every once in a while I see it and I can’t help but hate you all and wish your game would die more than it already is
>>538233123Nobody finds it amusing or clever except 3 chronically online unemployed retards who keep using it over and over and over without drawing a fucking dime the entire time.
>>538232987Bungie will never do anything cool ever again.
>>538231524Its possible. I don't know how long she's been around but I do know that her appearances of coming onto the stream is a fairly recent thing. Combining that with the fact that shes been in a few of cross's YT vids, knows that people (at least a single person) at bungie watch cross in some way, AND has a spot on cross's new podcast while hes probably at the peak of his popularity is a really good position considering how newish she is. It all kinda makes sense if you think about it like that but she really just could be a standard BDF troop. People are like that
Who is good for DPS in Rising? I have been torturing myself with matchmaking the final encounter of the raid and the past three attempts with different teams we wiped just because of running out of time. I've been playing Jolder and either I have a shit build or I need to try someone else out
>>538233123Sorry, Anon. I personally fucking hate it, and I've tried to make a good few threads that stay tonally consistent with Destiny's themes. But I've been very depressed recently and haven't been able to bring myself to make one for a while.
I didn't win the Powerball now what guardians?
>>538235407i want to play but i don't know how to play in the lottery
>>538235482It's over people already won in flyover states
>>538235651always late to everything
>>538233123Get pissed on, faggot.
>>538231794Mike Syphax we know that’s you
>>538234841Probably goth bitch for now because you can build her heavy ability damage and shotguns to the face do a shitload of damage. Jolder is more of a support tank unless you really hyper focus on upgrading the Huckleberry to the max and even then she's still doing just ok damage. I'm a Jolder main and can almost go toe to toe with a gwynn but that's only because I've put a shitload of resources on Jolder.
>>538234841The Arc SchizoOrThe Goth Bitch
>>538235356>But I've been very depressed recently and haven't been able to bring myself to make one for a while.Please Starbaker.... we need you to return....
>>538235356>asspissing titan mindbreaks chumps so hard they get depressionwho knew he had so much power
>one day left to get the monolith emblem>need 36k power to even queue>my highest character (tan-2) is at 26khow over is it for me?
>>538238473>>538239118I'm not gonna blog here, but in the middle of moving and getting over my mother's passing.
>>538232737yes... just 2 more days hopebros and then we're in the clear... just imagine it.. a 75K player count with a consistent 90K 24 hour peak every day... we are about to be so back... just hang in there.
>>538233054This is the only way onboarding works. They need existing players to basically babysit the new players so they can actually learn what to do in order.
>>538209624AAAAIIIIIIEEEE BAN HIM BAN HIM BAN HIM
>>538239150Put on a skirt and ask for help on discord
Alright bros, i'm entering the Menace and Issakis mines. Please pray for me. The amount of absolutely braindead retards in Break In almost drove me insane, but i really want the emblem.
FUCK the new firing range, all my homies still use the enclave one
Let's goo
>>538243296shard
>>538239420I’m sorry anon :(
>>538230886That's just the support frame reskinned.
>>538243439Thank you, friend <3Even if that's just in passing, that means more than you know.
>>538229185The mythic and exotic decals shine like animated shaders I think.
>>538229957The new season is September 11th so on Thursday. Estela is the second Pulse rifle character so since the new bright engrams feature a pink ornament for it and she is a Solar character I would assume so. In the Beta they had Gwyns banner on at the same time I remember it saying 20days left still so It lines up.
>>538213041>>538211170There is a series of legendary weapons that are modeled after Drifter's original Dark Ages arsenal from Forsaken's era of Gambit (Dreaded Venture, Hazard of the Cast, Bad Omens, etc.). In Rising, their descriptions hint at their Russian origins, and their origin trait is called Yelnya Guards - IRL Russia has a city called Yelnya which houses the 144th Guards Motor Rifle Division of the Russian Army which has been formed in 2016 as a successor to a similarly-named disbanded Soviet formation. I'm impressed the Chinese actually bothered to look it up.
damn this general is fucking dead. shit was way more active during the early d2 days and was consistently pumping 3-4 threads a day during forsaken. is the console version really that bad now?
>>538244935Oh I forgot to mention there is also Maru and Umeko as 4 star characters which probably come at the same time but I think we might need the new location for Maru as Umeko is Red Sea.She is described as a pirate so I assume we will get a tangled shore or maybe a vex style place next. Her super is a big gun that fires out a big void laser. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbCxWqac6EI
>>538230924The issue with keeping loot around forever is they have to keep making better loot somehow. They tried just wiping the slate clean, it didn't work, so they moved on to making new loot more valuable, while keeping old loot usable and incentivizing people to use the new loot. The issue now is they're being too forceful, and it's backfiring, the intent is fine, as per usual the execution is wrong.
>>538242689> hey the playerbase wants a firing range> sure hang some fucking change in the basement
#rapebungie
for the love of all that is good and holy in the world, they need to fucking remove the life system from matchmade activities. people are fucking retarded, stop expecting them not to be.
>>538230924>why do they keep trying to force thisbecause in theory it's the easiest, shortest and cheapest method of controlling the meta of a game, by forcing people to use the new shiny grenade launcher your division of 6 people have been proudly working on for the past 5 months
neat
>>538247404my favorite shell
>>538246035remember when the best answer to this shit was a brand new game with brand new systems and mechanics?I get to keep and use the old loot in Destiny 1 and it's just as good a decade later while Destiny 2 my favorite weapon got permanently killed at least 3 times by now
>>538247813Destiny is small time compared to any MMO. The fact that we can infuse gear at all is an outlier.
what did they mean by this?
>>538248316GHOSTFUCKER
beware of overdelivery
>>538248717Truman must be having a seizure seeing all that overdelivery in Rising lmao
>>538246035>>538247813honestly how do you even make an infinite treadmill mmo-lite fps game work realistically, are there any examples of someone doing it right?
>>538248786By making the gear unique stat sticks instead of individual pieces with a personality so people don't get too attached.Making the activities that you run for said gear fun and repeatable also helps a lot
>>538248786
>>538249014i wish i could like warframe but the aesthetic is so ugly. i just want the original destiny aesthetic back in a real game for once.
>>538249014Kill yourself.
>>538249089Yea Warframes aesthetic is a really acquired taste. But almost all of its content is still there from launch. Only raids, events and a couple tilesets are gone. And those tilesets were remastered.
>>538249089Rising
>>538249227
I DONT WANT TO PLAY WARFRAMEI DONT WANT TO PLAY DESTINY RISINGI DONT WANT TO PLAY DESTINY 1I DONT EVEN WANT DESTINY 3I WANT TO PLAY DESTINY 2 AND ENJOY DESTINY 2 ONLYWHY CANT DESTINY 2 (TWO) BE FUN ANYMORE? WHY CANT BUNGIE GET THEIR SHIT TOGETHER?
>>538239420it'll get better, stay strong
>>538249446Eh, I'm having fun.Granted I took a break before Final Shape and just came back a few weeks ago, so I get another year and a half of Bungie bullshit before I'm back to where you are.
The only original strike left in D2 is Insight Terminus :)
>>538249446play rising
>>538249446>I DONT WANT TO PLAY DESTINY 1Why?
>>538249446should have let them turn it into a subscription mmo
what i never understood is how bungie can put out much more content than slop like cs2 or ow2 but still end up with less players and make much less money
>>538250864there is no gamba or sex appeal in destiny
>>538251104destiny would have more players if it had pregnant exos like warframe and it played a slot machine animation every time you opened an engram just to edge you with an exotic
i want my youth back
at 402, what should I doing to get to 410?seems like near everything in Portal isn't giving me much
>>538251287you will never be able to go back to the past, even if you were to experience the same game in modern times it would not be as goodlet it go
>>538251341You say this but I found a dedicated D1 group a few months ago and been enjoying myself the same way I did in 2017
>>538251329wait a week until power goes up
>>538251435I'm trying to complete the final conquest before the season ends
>couldn't even break 30k on a saturday
>>538251905I'm grinding Iron Bar
>>538248773Chinks don't have Jason Schrier in their bushes taking pictures of devs chained to their desks
>>538251723Ash and Iron is still Reclamation and will be adding another tier of conquests
>>538250459I'd play it, but it is a console-only title, and the last console I owned was a fucking 3DO in the late 1990s, it was full PC gaming for me since then. I don't really want to play a shooter-based game on a controller, I still have flashbacks about playing through entire PO'ed on a 3DO controller which was absolute ass.
>>538251329Solo ops one gear piece at a time
>>538252108>He who does not work shall not eatThere is also a non-zero probability of Chinese devs actually doing their work unlike some terminally online people who are permanently oppressed by internet bullies in Twatter while attending their knitting clubs together with Blacked@Bungie as mandated by their Diversity Committee.
>>538251341if jay gatsby can do it so can i
>Gambit wasn't updated for the portal at allWhy?
>>538253785it has been neglected for yearsim surprised they didnt outright remove it
>>538252974Yeah Bungie are full of lazy cunts as well, but I'm just saying no one's going to jump up NetEase's ass for crunching their workers
why is it still called the kinetic weapon slot if you can have darkness weapons in it
>>538255005Bungie once mentioned that it would be called 'Kinetic slot' for now, hinting that it would be renamed, but nothing actually came out of this idea.
>>538255171i remember when i was getting into the game i didn't understand if descriptions that mentioned kinetic damage meant any kinetic slot weapon or kinetic energy weapons
>>538255423The game is still not consistent about it. Some bounties and challenges that say Kinetic want any weapon in the first slot, some, like Shaw Han's Cosmodrome bounties, specifically demand Kinetic damage.
>still need 1 item to reach 400>season pass caps at 399Bungie, for fuck's sake, would it fucking kill you to make it less obnoxious even once?
>>538244935SMG/Shotgun character when?
>>538255840>would it fucking kill you to make it less obnoxious even once?That's an emergency box for future trains
>>538238147>>538234841We had two Jolders for the raid, one of them did absurdly high final boss damage with Huckleberry.
>>538253785I've heard Ash and Iron is supposed to do something with Gambit. But then nothing got revealed. So either they canned it or I heard bullshit.
>>538242689
>>538248786You have to find a way to make the community accept that getting a static roll of a gun that is obsolete once the next update releases is the objectively correct way to do things. Raid releases, full set of armor and weapons, you don't just get loot for every kill you have to get lucky, that's your farming incentive, and when the next raid comes all of your stuff is powercrept by that loot, but you actually need the power from raid 1 to do raid 2.The only cure is to run this like an actual mmo.
>>538256193Where did you hear it?
>>538250459Not him but i'd rather not play video games at all than put up with those load times and a controller.
>>538256193pretty sure they said they would make Gambit into an event like Heavy Metal, where it gets highlighted for a week at some point or some shit like that
>>538256356I wouldn't mind that.Ideally every week Destiny should have something going on, be it an event, or mode focus, featured raid or dungeon to farm, ect. Bungie have a surplus of content to frame as fresh for the week to week experience. But all they bother with is trials on weekends and Iron Banner once a month, and they can't even do that anymore. It's so fucking easy to sucker people into playing old content for free. But Bungie could lose money owning a casino.
>>538256193pretty sure they said renegades
>>538256193I'm pretty sure this was the last time they talked about it, which was a year ago.
>>538256356I remember them vaguely saying that they are maybe planning to do something about it in the future.
>>538256591> we are still figuring out our planRemove invasion and focus on the PvE race?ykykx
>>538256193i have a feeling we're gonna get another season of the drifter
>>538257527> bungie attempts another rework, > invaders are invisible, > do double damage > blind all invadee's upon entering > instaban if you die
>>538256553that's what the entire portal is aboutthey canned seasonal stories and weekly missions for an increased focus on ritual activities to carry the game between more frequent expansionswhat they failed to realize is many casuals don't play the game for the grind they play to fuck around and get their god rolls after a few weeks of logging in
Do we have a dg pack for rising in the EU yet?
mithrack is an acceptable causalityI want all fallen dead
>>538257846with the way they speak about the systems it seems like they want people to log in and fuck around in portal activities with their friends, and slowly make progress across 6 months but the casuals who log in to fuck around with friends don't like playing hard content or grinding for powerand the hardcore players who think grinding power is fun will just find the most efficient path to reaching max power as soon as possible, breaking their system in the processso in reality they made this system for a small minority of players who may not even exist
>>538258078i forgot to mention the casuals dont want to invest the effort to get tier 5 loot and unlike adepts, they feel like if they don't have tier 5s then why even botherthe crafting rework might fix things for the casual audience, but they'll probably do something retarded like make it so only last season's weapons and armor are craftable
>>538233123Joke's on you we also want this game to die.
>>538258221It's because it used to be adepts were just cool cosmetics with enhanced perks, now tier 5 is where you get to really make cool stat builds without sabotaging your other stats.
>>538258447you could make the same argument for farming artifice armor in master content but casuals didn't hate that
>>538251287No you just want to go back to a time when developers weren't retarded diversity faggots as a rule, politics mostly stayed away from games and the internet and good quality games still came out every now and then.
>>538258221>but they'll probably do something retarded like make it so only last season's weapons and armor are craftableBack when they initially announced that crafting would be scaled back, they said it would be "a catch-up mechanic", so either the season after release or once the gear is no longer featured
>>538258691this is where my assumption comes from, but they have also mentioned you will be able to potentially free up vault space by destroying weapons you know if you ever need in the future you can recraft, and the system will also allow for armor craftingso whatever that means
>>538258597Because the advantage to artifice armor is nothing compared to what 200 stats can give you now. The old stat system was so fucking bad that even an extra mod slot didn't attract people. Plus, not having the artifice armor didn't essentially put a sign on your normal gear that told you it was shitty. Drawing attention to your gear quality is what really did it.
>>538258884its very funny they bolted on a rarity system on top of an existing rarity system
>>538258689>politics mostly stayed away from games
I hit the acclaim wall in Rising. Fruit might be the most valuable resource in the game. My advice if you’re just starting or haven’t gotten too far in Rising is to pick 1 or 2 characters and funnel everything into them. Sounds obvious but I have 0 experience with gachas so I was keeping everyone I unlocked pretty well upgraded. Now I’ve got a lot of slow chipping away at realm of the IX for fruits ahead of me
>>538258936calling it a rarity system is generous, there are legendaries and there are exotics, it's not like Borderlands where uniques exist.We used to have uniques, they were called Pinnacle weapons, and that should have become a third rarity, but Bungie is fucking retarded, so now master at arms is a garbage tier damage perk that no one runs because you can sneeze and get a bigger damage buff.
>>538259010>actually excitebike is about the struggle of jewish trans womenkill yourself, retard
>>538258221I also don't understand why Bungie want to make holofoils a thing, the chance to get them is already rare to begin with, their tier was better only during solstice (+1 for regular solstice drops and +2 for holofoils), and their ornament/texture is usually utter dogshit. Heavy Metal has two holofoil guns with some sort of pearlescent pink moving texture which doesn't even take shaders at all, half of your gun is covered in some Barbie shit you can't remove, and this is supposed to be a good thing worth chasing according to dmg.
>>538259118Don't worry Timmy, the famously apolitical video games like Deus Ex will always be there as a safe space from all lewoke.
>>538259139Remember this is the same devs who thought momentos were alluring and then made them all look like fucking dogshit.
>>538258936>>538259108Rising has a new Mythic (orange) tier between legendaries and exotics, and they have reworked the perk system so that perks also have rarities, and blue perks only roll on blue guns, purple guns can roll blue and purple perks, and mythic guns I saw rolled purple and orange perks. I had a Subsistence/Rampage auto rifle, with both perks being purple, while Vorpal Weapon is a Mythic (orange) perk and has a 35% damage bonus off the bat (you can enhance perks beyond their initial bonus but it's a whole different story).>>538259118When people speak about apolitical games, I understand they mean games without hamfisted mandatory references to yet another %CURRENT_THING%. Didn't we all see how graciously Bungie handled the Trump/migrant crisis reference in Splicer, or how pointed was their social commentary about COVID shown through Neomuna's lore? These were the fucking worst takes they ever had in their game.
>>538259497You see, I didn't notice the political commentary because Bungie writing is just standard writing tropes but in space. So if they were trying to hammer home some sort of message I didn't give a fuck therefore it didn't matter to me.
>>538259364Latest Solstice also dropped Solstice Mementos which couldn't even be used in current tiered weapons, including actual Solstice drops.
>>538259691
>not-season ends in two days>finally reached 400>finally reached rank 9>portal can now drop guaranteed t4 items>but only with an A grade>reachable by slotting in all sorts of bullshit modifiers making you play with a power delta of at least -30>no more power progression beyond ultra rare prime engrams>this bullshit system changes only in Ash and IronI'm surprised Bungie leans so much into FOMO and wanting the player to treat the game as a job, but at the same time they do everything to make me not play.

>>538209624Can’t rape the willing.
>>538261305I think D2 is just a testing ground for Marathon now. We beta/alpha test systems and philosophies and then implement them in more or less modified versions of Marathon.
>>538262592They're testing how little content they can give out while still being viable so they can mantain both games (they were already getting their shit pushed in making D2 alone work).
ok i guess i owe the doomGODS an apology, contrary to what i first thought: this new system is actually dogshit and so is the buildcrafting which at first seemed like an improvement over the previous system, but it's not.everything in this game is dogshit right now, it's simply not worth playing, they practically sunsetted everything, quadrupled down on the forcing builds and playstyles on players, nerfing stuff, pve which previously was fun and rewarding is now only rewarding when it's not fun and even then the rewards are not meaningful enough.after further inspection on the progression, the way bungie treats players, portal and its effect on the gameplay loop, constant questionable nerfing, i don't think i will be playing for a while. lets see after a year or two if the servers are online if sony hasn't shut them down already. bungie will have to perform miracles in order for me to install this kernel drm equipped, time wasting piece of turd again.

>>538224597You are not getting SIVA. You are getting Neomuna's SIVA 2.0, the silver shit. Go watch the trailer again when they unveil the axe. That's Merging with Cloudstrider tech. SIVA is gone. SIVA is retconned. And you fags are so desperate that you keep shelling out money for bait cosmetics, you fucking deserve this fate.
>>538268523>>538268523>You are getting Neomuna's SIVA 2.0, the silver shit.Nimbus won bigly...
Remember in season 10 when people thought Bungie would bring back siva because they referenced it in the fellwinter’s lie quest, then arrivals happened?
>>538268957I was just as mad back then, yeah
im one of those people who is happy when a company dies or at least stops using some old, popular thing they did. that just means they will never have the opportunity to ruin it.
I wonder if we’ll ever see a leak of the original Destiny 3 pre-alpha build from 2018-2019 before the Activision contract broke. I’m pretty sure they just ended up reusing most of its assets for Shadowkeep and Beyond Light but I’m still interested in seeing what would have been.
>>538267854Its over, Destiny Rising completely killed D2 and it's not even on Steam. If it does get a proper Steam release or if it even gets released on consoles, then D2 wouldn't even last.
>>538256553That’s what I don’t really get with the whole featured loot and plans of soft sunset with EoF stuff. If people can full heartedly see EoF isn’t worth it as it is, they have plenty of weapons that are better or on par with raid shit and Kepler stuff, they don’t care about trials etc etc , it’s like you’re giving them a larger out to specifically *not* buy the DLC when it becomes soft sunset in Renegades. Even for Bungie being complete greasy cunts somehow were stupid enough to leave more money on the table
How the fuck is anyone playing Heavy Metal? It's so fucking bad
>on Issakis>first phase goes absolutely flawlessly>get him down to 25%>second phase, the same people that did correct callouts before are now doing wrong callouts and we wipe>this happens FIVE(5) attempts in a rowWas it sabotage? I'm losing my fucking mind over here.

Destiny 2 is about to be RAPED by Randy.
>>538271283reddit: the game
>>538269772They need to stop putting anything other than cosmetics behind these party modes. Heavy Metal is actually kinda fun if you don't have to play 20 matches
>>538271395but enough about destiny 2
>>538268669So shouldn't Nimbus technically be dead by now? Don't they only live for like 10 years or something?
>>538271604By the time of Lightfall he was only active for about one or two years, so no
>>538271604No time passes in Destiny. It's been like a fucking year since we killed Crota.
So what’s the deal with awoken in Rising? As far as I know Mara doesn’t exist in this universe (yet at least)
>>538271604He was a "rookie", but Rohan was at the end of his 10 years. Assuming neomunans aren't retarded, they would have a hefty overlap, so he would be a maximum of 5 years in when we met him, so 7 years in.However, we know for a fact neomunans are complete retards, so he is probably only 1 year in when we meet him, so he's 3 years in. The game will die before Nimbus does.
>>538271786They actually specify that Cayde has been dead for several years in TFS
>>538271786Time in destiny passes more or less in real time. Maybe a year behind if you don't account for delays
Haven’t touched D2 since revenant last year but have been enjoying myself with Rising a lot.Is Edge of Fate or its raid alright on a discount or should I just wait until it becomes free on psplus to return?
>>538272578if you enjoy mobile games you should wait
>psplus>free
>torture #1 aka last wish7 year old raid btw
>>538273395>torture #2 aka VowThis would have broken a lesser man16 gamers enter, only 6 survive the harrowing experienceMaybe it’s me
>>538272578if you dislike mobile games you should wait
>>538269554Yeah, playing the game through an emulator really holds it back.
>>538272578If you like Destiny you should wait
>>538272578This is the worst time to play Destiny 2, check back in Summer 2026 when the expansion after onions wars comes out.
>Expansions>Raids and DungeonsTotal Bungie Death can't come soon enough
>>538273395Riven cheese finally dead
>Can just download planets and missions in RisingCould it really be that hard for Bungie to do something similar to this or MCC instead of fucking sunsetting fucking everything? I mean there’s no point in doing so now because D2 is so fucking dead that it would segment the playercount even more between activities, but still.
>>538275637I hate images like this. Some random pajeet was ordered to make this large image with as much text as possible to pretend these expansions are bigger than they are.
>>538278490Speaking of I just think in hindsight of all those constant survey pushing in twabs of “rank the interest in these stock cliche gear ideas we have” that’s obvious mood boarding for some contracted outsourced team, good thing this is where the attention is at instead of y’know having a coherent game. I am curious what the fuck is even the financials situation of Bungie like how/why are they being this stingy in an era of games where notoriously fucker companies don’t even treat things as retarded.
>>538271604I think far too many people realized how illogical Neomuna is and it’s just getting further memory holed
>>538278928Things aren’t going good at Bungie, even with the high launch of Lightfall or TFS they still bled money for the studio. Its more than likely that Sony is keeping their purse tight unless the studio can prove itself again.
>>538278928I was actually surprised when a friend of mine came back to Destiny after 2 years abandoning and they gave him a "why did you come back" survey and awarded hm 1200 silver like that must have been really important to know
The funeral bells have sounded
>>538278928It makes no sense that they are doing bad financially other than bad management. Bungie probably wastes too much money on employee entitlements and that new office was a bad idea. I think Pete Parsons is sketchy and not for the reddit car reasons but I think he ran the company in a way to make it look better than they are burning money with the hope that someone buys them like Sony did
>>538279805>he ran the company in a way to make it look better than they are burning money with the hope that someone buys them like Sony didThat's exactly what happened. They buy themselves from Blizztivison then suddenly also have the money and manpower for like 4 games, a movie, and a t.v show? Just off Destiny? Then about as soon as they're bought by someone for a ridiculous amount of money it's all cancelled except for the live service games that Sony's going all in on anyway? Come on now.
>>538280136I think Ubisoft was trying the same thing and no one bit. Like they had that pirate game in development for ages because it looks good on paper if you are a studio with a lot of shit in development and the moment they released it was the moment they gave up on trying to get someone to buy them. Now I don't even know if Ubisoft has things in development. Far Cry 6 was one of the worst games I ever played in my life
>>538280350Skull & Bones was them scamming the government of Singapore to pay for another studio there, and that only came out because they finally put their foot down and demanded Ubisoft actually hold up their end of the deal. I think they only thing they've announced that's coming is more Ass Creed because that's all they have that does well.
>>538275637>Codename: SurgeSurge what, exactly? The apathy of players?
>>538271889Skorri is an awoken.
>>538256212Wow it's just like halo!
>>538271889Playable awoken coming soon
>Discovered how fun Icebreaker/Stasis is>It's great for hard content>Can't use it for conquests because of Avant Garde>Worse still, they're reducing the bonus points from Locked Loadout...AND FORCING AVANT GARDE TO GIVE MORE POINTS GOING FORWARDI hate this company. I hope someone bombs their fucking server room and crashes it forever.
>>538280951Funnily enough, Division 2 is making a comeback of sorts. Not a massive one, but the small Battle for Brooklyn DLC was probably successful enough for current day Ubisoft for them to profit on. But yeah, as anons point out these publishers probably just bleed money for years in the hopes they get either get bought out or investor funds. Another publisher that did the same was Embracer Group, the people that own THQ Nordic and Deep Silver.
>>538271889The Reef was keeping firmly to itself, but the awoken had already been created and left the Distributary by that point in the main timeline. The Awoken of the Reef hated the Traveler and viewed awoken Lightbearers as nothing more than shambling corpses that were perversions of their dead.
>>538284816Estela looks like the kind of girl that drools when she cums.
>>538279805In a lot of ways that's probably not far off. You consider how Destiny always was something with extremely strict limitations as to what it could be physically be, what they could do with it. They coasted ungodly hard on vibes, over the top marketing and other absurdity because at the end of the day there wasn't an awful lot of substance in larger areas of the game. The fact they were trying to have cake and eat it too calling themselves like an MMORPG with no framework to have that environment was one of many tells of the situation. It's kind of part of the whycome no Destiny killers could overtake and it's mostly just how a company couldn't even do half of the bullshit Bungie's done in their run of Destiny and expect to still have a game. Or in short I don't think it's accidental why there's so many questionable choices throughout Destiny that felt implemented by somebody who's never played a videogame
>>538284867I went back to Division 2 after not playing it in ages, I was actually surprised how it wasn't as bad as I remember, they fixed and unfucked a lot, and the additions while not over the top insane, it's welcome and enjoyable. Actual inoffensive enough cheap entertainment, it really just makes the situation of Bungie being so jacked up on making things disposable and unfun such a pox on things.
>>538284867>Division 2I played that on release can't believe its still going. Wonder how different it is now
>wake up>realize destiny is shit>going to enjoy my sunday outdoors>get stung by a bee immediately after stepping off my front stepdmg is sending assassins after me #rapebungie

How do you build Ning Fei for high DPS? I keep seeing people running him hitting hard as fuck, and I use a Jolder with an upgraded huckleberry + dome for dps.
Did they announce anything past the Star Wars DLC?
>>538284816>Offensive Solar>PR + LMG loadoutDunno how I feel about this one. Might just sit on my boats until we know what's coming next.Umeko's the real prize here, due to her debuffs, but she may have been nerfed since Beta.
I can't tell if the marathon subreddit is filled with paid bots or legit room temperature IQ people
>>538286485I think the only thing is the temp title of the summer 2026 expansion, The Alchemist. It's now very apparent that it's more of Maya's bullshit.
>>538286341Tan and Jolder are buff bitches for him, stack as many as you can for maximum damage
>>538286814Seems like mostly Bungie employees trying to hype themselves up.
>>538286923It's nothing but people saying overtly positive things and being hyped for the game and saying the closed betas drastically made the game better but they can't tell you how
>>538286485Shadow & Order is Renegade's equivalent to Ass and Piss. Shattered Cycle (probably hive focused) is the Summer 2026 expansion and The Alchemist (probably maya shit) is the Winter 2026 expansion. They haven't really said anything about them other than the title names.
Ash and Iron sounds like the name of a garbage WWE tag team
>>538284865>they're reducing the bonus points from Locked Loadout...AND FORCING AVANT GARDE TO GIVE MORE POINTS GOING FORWARD LMMMAAAAOOO are you serious? Where was this said? Fucking knew they'd do this at some point and what better time to do so when the player counts are at an all time low, the player sentiment is in the tanker, and a new game that's a competitor against yours comes out next week :D yes bungie very smart keep doing what you're doing lol
>>538287809nta but they said they're reducing locked loadout in one of the recent retarded twids, they just want us to stop playing entirely and I'll oblige.
>>538287809It was in one of the last couple TWABs/TWIDs. They're reducing the score bonus from locked loadout and adding a new modifier(Touche) that's locked loadout and Avant Garde combined.
im actually going to miss out on the shader and emblem because of infinity third world retards smearing their greasy fingers over their phonesTHE FIGHT HAS LESS MECHANICS THAN A DESTINY 2 STRIKE.
>>538288695I don't blame the third world I blame gamer dads
>>538288323>and I'll obligeAs have many others these past few weeks. >>538288391>and adding a new modifier(Touche) that's locked loadout and Avant Garde combined.Kek they can't help themselves can they. If feedback is supposedly being passed along to the team then they know how much players absolutely hate avant garde so what is the purpose of this? I swear some of the changes they do have to be out of spite
>>538286814Circlejerk of nutriders that are willing to give Bungie benefit of doubt and think they got some magical blank slate on their hand. Reality of the situation is that everybody was basically correct once playing the Alpha and realizing, who is this game even for? because it absolutely will not appeal to anybody who actively doesn't like PVP(most of current Bungie's fanbase) , it won't convert anybody onto the extraction genre because it doesn't even really do it that well, and it just comes out like a shoddy-average BR-like feeling game with extraction elements. I think there's a lot of mentally ill people holding out for some "Bungie magic" that will save the day and they just don't realize how bad the bed has been shit. I also figure just youngins who don't know any better, I thought I was hot shit cause I played in CAL for CS 1.6 but I was also in early high school so of course I felt like I knew everything about FPSs. That's where I feel a lot of these autists are at, they think Bungie's gonna throw out something cutting edge and life changing.

>>538257850whats the lore on this thing?
Here are the rules for gacha pulling:1) Never spend your currency on pulls for the permanent banner.2) If you liked a limited character, pull until you get it once, then stop.3) Hoard your pulls/leaves.4) If another limited character you like releases, repeat steps 2&3.5) Once reruns start, drop everything you have to get dupes of the character you like the most.
>>538295774>>538296024
whats the best way to farm proficiency for new characters?
>>538289538It's not unheard of for a studio to make a decision they know the players hate for the overall long-term health of a game, but I'm not sure what the benefits (perceived or otherwise) are here.This won't drive up engagement, which has been their main attack point since Heresy.This won't drive up retention, which has been an issue since The Final Shape.This is a direct attack on player sentiment at all relevant levels of play, so it's not a "feel good" patch.The only thing left that I can think of is that they want to increase the pressure to use Avant Garde/Touche because they want a smaller sandbox to work with when having to make balance considerations for endgame. Either they're making moves to allow them to downsize dev hours on D2 (to either liquidate or reallocate those devs), or the strain of having to constantly chase balance for the top end is putting too much pressure on the devs and the more casual players.Bungie is trying to, at the most benevolent reading of their design intent, force feed the playerbase their veggies to make them stop crutching on the same busted combos they've been using for a year or more. However, the playerbase isn't having it, and would rather starve themselves, or go over to Li's house where his mom has funny cookies with words in them.Bungie needs to break the glass and put out a "junk food" patch that just lets players go nuts and not care about balance for a bit. ANYTHING to get people in the door, at this point.

>>538308359fuck you
>>538303291turns out ana did a shit job of cramming him into an engram before mars vanished and he ended up lobotomized
I'd get year of sloprophecy if bungie payed me 20000$

>>538308437I'm just calling it like it is. Who the fuck pauses from masturbating to look at some posts or doesn't close the tabs that aren't porn.
>>538308120Edge of Fate is dead content, waste of money. Renegades will be even worse, with no raid.
What's the fastest way to level power in Rising? I want the raid emblem.
>>538309041people who have lots of things to do?
>destiny has been reduced to mobile slopGuys, seek help. Attend NA meetings or something. This is just undignified.
>>538309215whatever you say
>>538305647The hopesissy copesLusting for meaty DOOMcockTears down his cheeks, RAPED
>>538309971based
>>538305647hopebros I'm growing stronger!
>>538309971fucking disgusting. doomposters truly are the worst...
>>538309141If you click on your power in the character menu you can read what to upgrade
>>538309971
I decided that Rising is the main timeline.
>>538313397aieeeeeeeee
The only main timeline of Destiny is the one Jason Jones wrote.
I have applied to a janitorial position at 4chan.org so I can ban doomcucks from this general for good.
>>538306982The look you give when Mactics says he wants to do mechanics and starts policing load outs
>>538314417I'm going to rape you when I'm done with Bungie
>>538303291Gets even more retarded with that cloud shitter who snuck in and removed mentions of shit
>>538314720They should make a new exotic that functions like a mix between Tractor and Rat King, name it after him.
feels good to have subfactions backnot a fan of the cabal designs in rising though desu, rising is usually pretty good at sticking to the d1 aesthetic but d1 cabal were all about rust and efficient brutalism whereas these cabal are more sleek and regal like in d2
>>538308120If it drops to $50 or less, and if Renegades looks good, I MIGHT consider going for it.Edge of Fate is basically a non-expansion and offers no content worth paying for, so Bungie's absolute best offer would be justifying spending full price on Renegades and tacking on the dungeon key, battle passes, and EoF raid content for $10 total extra. Mind you, that's if Renegades can justify its own $40 price tag. If Renegades is just EOF 2, then I don't think there's any way they can secure real sales, even with Star Wars attached.
>>538315264oh hey nice rasputin is canon
>>538316000>The Sentinels are mecha made by Japanese who built it on the moon and shot them to Earth to serve as autopiloted gundams to protect humanity.Bro this lore is awful and I'm fucking here for it.
>>538311274>>538312740They love it!
>>538316000This is absolutely fucking retarded good Christ.
>>538316195>awfulyou mean kino, Bungie would've made some stupid storyline about lesbians rather than this.
>>538316429bro i have some bad news about gwynn's questline...
>>538316429Best I can offer you is "Cringekino", and that's honestly a bit high for the current market.
>>538316504a properly mentally ill lesbian that was tortured to death and maybe even raped multiple times.
>>538316195>>538316378it's especially retarded because the hive were on the moon the whole time, but i could see crota going>oh shit they're making a mech? okay leave them alone i wanna fight that thing
>>538316504Gwynn's storyline is fine. It doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't, and the cheesy dynamic between "Bitter lightbearer-killing assassin that fetishizes death" and "chipper lover of all trying to keep as many people alive as possible" is way better written than any attempt at homoerotic romance that Bungie's ever produced.I just wish they'd written more than the one interaction between the two. I main Attal, and I'm getting sick of the "Dinner and a Show" bit after the 400th matchmade activity.
>>538317126>I just wish they'd written more than the one interaction between the two.this is an issue with every character tbf, i main tan and wolf won't fucking stop bringing up him destroying jiangshi public property
>>538316000This series truly is dead, isn't it? It's felt like a limbo since the wet fart that was Heresy. But now that we've entered full-blown soulless gacha territory, I feel like it's morally correct to drop it.Thanks for posting that. I feel free. Just uninstalled and hid the game on Steam. Goodbye, friends. May you soon awaken from this nightmare like I have.
>>538317510see i actually prefer retarded chinks taking the setting and doing whatever they want with it than the previous five years of retarded californians taking the setting and doing whatever they want with it. rising lore being bad is expected, destiny lore being bad is a disappointmentat least the chinks go in for chuuni shit instead of soap opera drama
>>538309115Renegades has a dungeon and those are better than raids.
>>538315954>Edge of Fate is basically a non-expansion and offers no content worth paying forThe campaign and raid are both very good.
>>538229957SHE'S COMINGhttps://x.com/_DestinyRising/status/1964720321967079481
>>538316000Very interesting and I like the lore, the justification being competition with Bray
>>538317510>the wet fart that was HeresyHeresy was the third best season they ever did.
>>538318683Dungeons are better than raids, but the last few dungeons are kinda shit
>>538319265Lem owwNo.
>>538319368Yes, your taste is fucking abyssmal.>>538319287Vesper's and Ghosts are the only bad dungeons.
>>538319505>Yes, your taste is fucking abyssmal.says the guy defending modern bungie slop
>>538319505Look at this guy. Calling someone else's taste bad while defending Bungie's last semi solid turd before the softener kicked in and it's now a hose of diarrhea.
>>538319602Yeah, thats like the last few. Sundered is also shit because it was buggy as fuck when and the armor is total modern bungo slop. I also already forgot what happens it even drops
>>538315264Have you considered that maybe the Cabal in D1 looked more rusty because they hung around on a dusty planet?
>>538318960All the prime characters are going to be female............... I only play male or dommy/muscular/strong female
>>538320038the brutalism is more important than the rust, their overall aesthetic is very different. look at this dude for example, i wouldn't even guess he was cabal if you showed him to me without context
>>538316378What’s wrong with building a gigantic robot in space?
>>538320571He certainly looks more Cabal than Ghaul
Destiny Rising clearly shows how dangerous “wish dragons” can be when used by humans (or vice versa) who are easily corrupted by their own ambitions.
>>538320571>Iron Ghaul
>>538318920>1 hour of actual story>60% of which is cutscenes>A mechanic that has been near-universally panned as, at best, "the devs played a better game and didn't understand what made it good but tried to copy it".>With 4 hours of extra padding.>And 2 replays at progressively worse difficulties that are spongy bullet voids.>Raid that offers no loot in a looter shooter>4 encounters, 3 of which are bigger models of existing enemies in the game>Mechanics are extremely minimal, requiring less party engagement than even Root of Nightmares for some.>Bosses are all aggressive DPS checks because Bungie had to do SOMETHING to make it resemble a challenge.>The final boss has novelty but is ultimately another DPS check in the DPS Check Raid.>Also you aren't allowed to get any good loot unless you crank up the difficulty and the power delta.If you pay $40 for this, you're retarded and deserve to be parted with your ability to have any assets, liquid or otherwise.
finally got it, its wild how many people mess up simon says
>>538321773I started too late and I'm too low power
hope we get better looking armor sets in Ash & Iron, the eververse and season pass sets were abysmal dogshit, and the world drop/Kepler ones were average.raid and trials was okay, but I don't think I'll wear them much
>>538320481>dommy/muscular/strong femaleFaggot
>pvp? don't bother using saladan's VA, just get AI to do it>srl? who cares lol, generate that shit>random cute girl? write a blank check damnit it is IMPERATIVE we hire a real human to capture her full emotional rangebased priorities desu
>>538320481In the beta, besides Estela, there was also Maru, a female titan with a huge machine gun. You can find her gameplay on youtube
>>538322623They really nailed the autistic look, especially on the vendor camera angle.
>>538322623Why the fuck are people wearing glasses in a universe where virtually any ailment can be cured?
>>538322192that's rough anon, i overshot the light level needed for this one too.not that it matters, challenge mode caps me at its light level ceiling
>>538322623I love her
>>538318960Wtf feet?
>>538321773>When you finally get past the simon says mechanic but then your team doesn't have enough dpsI hate the dunning kruger effect.
just finished the last mission, bungie literally couldn't even dream of creating kino like this
>>538322623We're not used to this, but Red Sea Rift doesn't have much AI because they actually listened to player feedback and rewrote its story.
>>538323186You know that in our real world there are people (especially women) who wear glasses as a fashion accessory... I was shocked when I saw a friend at college wearing glasses for the first time and she told me it was just for the look, a bit like a hat or jewelry. Interesting.
I'm seriously wondering if I'll even log in on Tuesday.
>>538323605Absolutely retarded. Why not put my fucking arm in a sling and call it "fashion"?Did black people create this? It seems like something they'd do.
>>538323558>born too late to enjoy the beginning of the grand Destiny saga with Destiny 1>born just in time to enjoy the beginning of the grand Destiny saga with Destiny Rising
>>538323605A hat has practical uses. Head warming, blocking direct sunlight, etc. Rings can and are used in defensive situations.Wearing glasses for no reason is insane.
>>538323867You mean you haven't uninstalled already?
>>538323186is it ever stated anywhere whether guardian healing magic actually works on mortals? it's possible the effect relies on both people having the light
>>538324389We literally used a solar healing grenade on Lodi at the end of Edge of Fate
>>538324389I think anyone can be healed it's just our guardian didn't know how to use healing nades while cayde was dying.
>>538318960nice feet I got 230 rolls ready for her
>zombie is yourswhy do they keep saying that?
>>538325774Who is "they" and where?
>>538315264How come in rising, when I shoot the flying cabal, their jetpack turns off and they fall to the ground, laying there for like ten seconds before slowly getting back on their feet, yet in destiny2, shooting flying enemies does nothing until they die?
>>538211170Black man is loud angry and nearly gets everyone killedBlack woman is stupid and doesnt listen, unleashes the vex on the galaxyYeah im thinking thats based
Ass and Urine peak predictions? I’m thinking 60k max. 50k is probably more realistic.
>>538327642100k

>>538322247You know that yas queen rah rah stuff how women wishing they had the confidence of mediocre men and how easy it all is, sign me the fuck up for being a couple made up illness deep fail upwards woman. If I told people at age 30something that "I have been in gaming industry for over 15-20 years" and part of that is counting being a mod on a Dragon Age fan forum, I would be getting ghosted so hard for an interview.
>>538327642350k

What's her story?

>>538328949Because she's blond and Estella is not blond... so... who is she?

Waiting for the inevitable disaster stream on tuesday.
Wtf are those recommended characters for legendary campaign challenge missions? Literally no one leveled up Ikora or Finnala. Got 2 bronze chests with catalyst items before reset, can't get the other 2
>put in 70 hours this season>370 llis this bad or good
bungie should have swallowed their pride and just worked with netease to make destiny 3 for both pc and mobile
>>538330070This was gay
>>538259072>My advice if you’re just starting or haven’t gotten too far in Rising is to pick 1 or 2 characters and funnel everything into themFuck I never played a gacha and was leveling up everyone.Am I fucked? I'm around chapter 4.
#rapeandmurderbungie
>>538318960Rising is so cool, I fucking hate Bungie and want them raped to death.
>>538333684Nah you can reset them at some point for free before beating the campaign, look it up.
>>538296279>1) Never spend your currency on pulls for the permanent banner.I only ever used leaves on the timed goth girl but I'm afraid I won't even be able to get her. She's guaranteed in 35 pulls but her event ends in 17 days or something, and I'm not paying to get extra tries. >3) Hoard your pulls/leaves.Why
>>538333684You should focus on three characters with different elements and different damage types (spread, impact, etc.). I would love an Impact character (the muscle cute lady) but I don't want to use my "primo"
>>538334225>and I'm not paying to get extra tries.Giga farm the Triumphs, you should be at least at 820 if you a serious Destiny player, 900+ if you are a proDestinygamer. They gave tons of Lumia leaf
>>538299379>Warmind deleted>All Seasons deleted>has diedRasputin is in the DCV forever
>>538330070>all that D1 armor>only some of that is in the gameMan I fucking hate bungie. A lot of those guardians are just copy pasted and wearing the same sets but still.
>>538329263Where are you getting these players from?
>>538302327brookes just hides behind others when the backlash is too loud
>>538335772Have you not seen how hyped folks have been from these past few twabs? bungie is cookin bigly right now and people are ready to feast
So if carpet muncher Maya has the Echo of Command and can comepl something as powerful as a member of The Nine why doesn't she do things like...>Capture and compel a ghost to give a Vex unit the Light>Compel the Traveller to revive the people that died in the collapse or recreate golden age EarthInstead she is rummaging around in The Plaguelands in Rasputin's dusty old cupboard for some warsats or something.
Total Bungie Death.Kill Bungie employees. Behead Bungie employees. Roundhouse kick a Bungie employee into the concrete. Slam dunk a Bungie employees baby into the trashcan. Crucify filthy Bungie employees. Defecate in a Bungie employees food. Launch Bungie employees into the sun. Stir fry Bungie employees in a wok. Toss Bungie employees into active volcanoes.

Kick old Bungie employees down the stairs. Feed Bungie employees to alligators. Slice Bungie employees with a katana.
>>538337415you forget that her grasp is tenuous at best and multiple things have told her to fuck off and eat shit.3 probably just went along with it because muh plans within plans within plans or someshit
once i hit 400 power does pvp start dropping tier 4 armor?
>>538338783>hitting 400Why would you do that?
>>538337415Don't forget that the Nine are achronal and even all of the Witness's actions were only because they permitted it, so they all would have known that the Echo of Command would be created, Maya would get it, and she would use it to kill 3, and yet it still happened. The writers also keep doing callbacks to things related to the Darkness even though they stressed in the first mission that dark matter has no connection to it.
>>538338926kill yourself answer the question
>>538339126ooooh feisty
God I wish pugs weren't so retarded I'm about to fall asleep and miss out on the shader and emblem.
>>538339273faggot
>>538338783I think it's possible, but you need to win, be wearing all featured gear, and have a high Crucible rank(not-rep, not comp rank) to hit the minimum score threshold. You might also need GR9, but I'm less sure about that.
Too bad there is no Lost Sector in Rising, do you think this is because the activity is too bungie for netease?
>>538339656Rising has better exploration
>>538339067I almost guarantee we'll be able to bypass The Nines ability to see our future with some macguffin dark matter shit. Quite funny they basically immediately 180'ed the whole "guardians make their own fate", the current writers think they are making something really compelling and original when its really just incoherent slop... I guess its to be expected when you hire a slug woman that wants a "senpai character" to write your story.
>>538322730Maru will come alongside the third zone of Red Sea Rift which is like a Seadock Shipyard place a bit like the real Red sea. I assume that the beach is implying that Estela's quest will also involve that area.
>>538338926Tier 5 gear means you triple your drops when it comes to guns and get to fuck around with the armor stats.
>>538330943It's Estela she harnesses the power of the Ahamkara which gives everyone around her bad luck.I unironically think they are going to transform the black girl into her or at least have her discover her or something.
>>538339964Luhrs saying that they wanted to "challenge" the idea of Guardians making their own fate when that's the core of paracausality was braindead, but the writers just aren't smart enough for a story that's heavily revolving around achronal beings. The Nine decided that we would be their Weapon(which feels like a reference to the First Knife concept but we are told isn't) and orchestrated our resurrection for that, but 3's plan to bind them sounds bad for the remaining eight, and they should know about the plan and know that we would be told about it, but are still giving us powerups.
>>538339580i have my rep maxed out and am wearing have 5/5 armor bonus hopefully that's enough thanks
>>538340261What the hell do you need tier 5 gear for? You don't even need tier 3.
The game is over...
>>538337547Post your Bungie ID please
>>538341034don't worry, bungie's genius play with 'the lands' will save us
>>538340931It's not about need, it's just fun to fuck around with. Like having 100 in all stats but maxing grenade to double your damage.
>>538341353That's retarded, there's no point in chasing loot in this game.
I wouldn't be opposed to some armor that looks like normal 21st century soldier guy. The fantastical stuff has gotten pretty bland lately
>>538342502yeah it'd be cool if we got tactical armor
so how do i get higher light level items at 400?do i need to get A+ on portal activities now?
>>538337415The writing around Maya is so fucking weird because they seem reluctant to make her an actual threat. She's just doing a bunch of bullshit instead of attacking the City
>>538342781Nah just prime engrams.
>>538342856it doesn't seem like she's trying to destroy Sol, more like she thinks what she's doing is in everyone's best interest.
>>538342856Dude she just ordered Earths space god to kill itself. Her entire overarching goal is to replace current Earth with Golden Age earth. How much more of a threat do you want her to be? Does she need to shoot Zavala in the dick?
>>538342969where do those come from?nothing from Portal i assume?
>>538343107I don't know man. We finally get a homegrown human villain and I'm just so disappointed with her.
>>538339303The emblem is a shame but shaders are dog shit in this game, it's a fucking one time use consumable anon. Like D2 year 1 horseshit.
>>538343107They try to make her sound like she knows what she's doing but she's just gone full schizo murdering everyone and destroying everything with her dumb plan.
>>538340574They're scared shitless of Maya and most of them just want us around as insurance because it's a lot safer to fuck around with Maya when they have something that can kill her in their back pocket.
>>538344104That's just it though, we already had her figured out in Echoes. She IS schizo and her only goal is to find a version of Chioma that isn't sick of her shit, because she's a narcissistic retard who thinks that the "real" Chioma will love her no matter how much of a megalomiacal dipshit she is. She's just determined that the only place to find that Chioma is back in the Golden Age, and rather than travel backwards in time to find her she wants to kill two birds with one stone and solve post-Collapse civilization at the same time by dragging the past into the future. She's a space lesbian, anon, a delusional creature by definition.
>>538344296But how does that make any sense? It's explicitly stated that they could have just stopped the Witness themselves at any point, and everything from the Black Fleet entering Sol to its death was another test. If they have that level of power, killing her or destroying the Echo should be doable easily.
>>538344864I'm not entirely convinced of that anon remember these retards kicked off the Red War to kill one guardian's ghost, they only ever act through intermediaries, and a lot of them seem extremely smug and arrogant. It would not surprise me in the slightest that despite these supposed incredible cosmic powers they have that something as stupid as getting forcibly dragged into the third dimension is a painfully easy way to kill them. Our source for how powerful they are is unreliable at best. Why would they need a weapon if they actually could just kill Maya anytime they wanted.
>>538344864The whole downplaying of The Witness the new chungus writers is just completely dumb, he's technically older than almost the entire Earth and likely older than the nine, we had multiple lore entries that said we were doomed and every possible predicted future showed him as the winner, hell it invalidates the entirety of the Elsie's story where she has essentially been looping endlessly for god only knows how long looking for the one timeline where humanity manages to win.But for the nine it was just a prank lol! Haha!
>>5383432645% chance of drop on A-rank from portal activities.
>>538345415Now that I read it the way you put it, it is even more painfully obvious how hard those cocksuckers at Bungie ripped off Marvel.
>>538342502The closest you'll get to that are some Hunter armors.
the shitness is a garbage character and should be retconned out of existence
>>538345907What chest is that on the left? I like that one.
>>538343107Her shooting Zavala in the dick would at least be something we can directly react to as characters, rather than the completely disconnected action of killing 3.We have absolutely zero known stakes in the Nine. They're the ones with stakes in US.
>>538333392Wouldn't have worked. They would have never been able to decide on anything and bungie employees would be sabotaging the project out of sheer spite and jealousy.
>>538323929Blacks did NOT create chic culture.
>>538323996>born too late to enjoy the beginning of the grand Destiny saga with Destiny 1You didn't miss out on much, it fucking sucked and all of the hype was based around promises that were never met. It was cool at first because there was nothing else like it at the time. Series peaked at TTK.
>>538343107She's a robot lesbian with a raspy voice. We've killed multiple gods at this point. Fucking Kang was more intimidating as a main villain replacement.
Can't believe this I was looking through the new shaders in next weeks Rising seasonal engram. Um making games is hard guys we cant make our shaders look cool.
>>538348491it is weird that they made the vog and gos memento shaders so ass
>>538348593What's funnier is you can use the argument "but Rising shaders are single use".So are Mementos....
warlocksisters...
>people queuing for Calamity Ops while under the power level requirementDo these niggers not understand we gotta kill shit as fast as possible?
I won.

>>538330070I want to go backDestiny 2 peaked hereI hate the portal grind
I give up, I'm not getting that emblem, I'm never finishing the raid.
been playing Rising a bit on my phone with one of those controllers that you stick your phone in the middle of and make it into a kind of ghetto handheldgame is a lot of fun, been enjoying it in a way I haven't been enjoying d2 in yearsis it as tightly polished or does it control as good as d2? nobut it's really easy to get into any activity, most of the destiny formula is there, and pretty much all the characters are fun and viable and nice to look atnot to mention the game is quite generous right now, getting every character is well within reach at the momentthat might change in the future since it's a netease game, who notoriously also published the absurdly predatory diablo immortalbut the game simply not having a 50/50 system puts it head and shoulders above every other gacha on the market in terms of consumer friendlinessif the fate of Destiny is to become a mobile game franchise, it certainly could have been worse than this
>>538349594that looks like triggers ass from zzz
>>538351593So you’re saying I can count on you for logging on to run the all new exciting Ash and Iron activity on reset?
>>538352991I mean I might log on to check it out once, and then not touch the game for another several months
>Guardians make their own fate is being subverted because the Quirk Chungus lead writer watched Dunc and this is her spin on the Golden Path
bungie cooked
>>538345415I’ve said it for years the demystifying and trivializing of the Nine was going to push me over. This game has always been guilty pleasure popcorn but it was one of the few cool things in this game and I loved Season of Drifter’s lore books and visits with all the referential shit being opened up and all that. I guess the only thing I can be happy about is Cocytus space station didn’t get ruined and still could exist as just a weird cross roads. I legit thought they were gonna put the raid there. It’s very dumb to just casually act like the Nine now suddenly was doing all these things setup all along. The fact that even the cutscene with Ikora driving and the road sign cuts the saying Nine, like what the fuck kind of goofball shit was that? I never thought I’d kinda miss the seasonal model because if the story wasn’t amazing it was something different, I hate how much just sits in the base dlc
>>538285094If a girl did that when I was fucking her I would lick the fucking drool off of her face holy fuck
>>538338783Yes it can drop Tier 4s, and you can get your tier 5 prime from it as well. I genuinely have no clue how the scoring works for pvp, wouldn’t be surprised if it’s almost random because you can technically get that completion of an activity % chance rate to see the prime. But yes 400 GR9 I’m pretty sure opens it up for drop quality . Def don’t level in pvp unless you hate yourself, also with 400-500 being like 10-400 on Tuesday you’ll basically see better shit easier as the leveling goes quick. I’m guess 500+ is going to maybe be for some of the highest conquests?
Edge of Fate and the original plan for Marathon was like a Producers situation right? They clearly wanted this to bomb intentionally?
>>538346763That's the chest from Duality
Rising > D2
>>538354794Sure feels like it. God bungie is so retarded lol
>>538350234Yeah, she's by far /OurGirl/
>>538305647>hope from the Disney nuWars crossover
Haven't played Destiny since TFS and I've heard it's worse than ever after Blackburn left... but the leaks for Marathon have me curious.Previously it was a 4/10 but now it looks like it'll be a 6/10. Hopefully it'll be a hit so Bungie can live long enough to make a D3.https://thegamepost.com/marathon-nda-playtest-3-leak-reveals-new-details/
>>538342502We used to have armour sets in similar vein... Alas, nuBungie is too retarded to score some easy dubs.
>Destiny rising mobile game of the yearThe chances are high
>>538357806Some variations even had attachment for nods on the helmet.
>>538357806>>5383580850 personality0 charmI'm sorry but it looks like random armors in a random SF videogame.
>>538357676>Previously it was a 4/10 but now it looks like it'll be a 6/10. Hopefully it'll be a hit so Bungie can live long enough to make a D3Shut up. This shit needs to fucking flop so bungie finally learns their lesson. D3 made by current bungie would be total shit anyways.
>>538358426nobody asked you troon@Bungie
>>538358531If Bungie 'learns their lesson', they fucking die.They're 1000+ heads in the middle of Seattle getting paid million dollar bonuses by Sony.
>>538357676d3 ain happening, even if it did, it would be turbo shit. ill say it againl. anyone holding out for d3 is retarded. i am also retarded who bought the whole years expansion
>>538358809>d3 ain happeningWell I want a decent looter shooter (in the first person perspective so Warframe doesn't count). How's Borderlands 4 looking? Heard they toned down the cringe reddit humor.
>>538358769>If Bungie 'learns their lesson', they fucking die. Yeah.
https://x.com/destinybulletn/status/1964760678323069182>NEW: Bungie’s latest closed playtest 3 for Marathon has reportedly leaked online, revealing details about a new Runner and abilities, "multiple" UESC Marathon ship maps, UI overhaul, and more>TONS OF NEW CONTENTDid Bungie... le cook??? How we feelin Bungie fanatics?!
So is that Arknights crossover back on the menu thanks to Destiny Rising?
>>538359394>Previously it was a 4/10 but now it looks like it'll be a 6/10.I'll try it again even though I hated the first test.
>>538359394Will it still look like absolute shit? Some of those visuals in actual real non trailer bullshit footage looked legit PS2 tier.
>>538359657I play on a 4K OLED and thought it looked amazing. In a very stylish ONI kind of way.

>>538360323The Cube will save us.
In my time away from playing D2 I picked up Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion. Is fun
>>538362308i would play it too if i wasnt a broke ass bitch.
>>538358426L
https://www.tiktok.com/@playstation/video/7547525468946189582why is sony posting about d2 on their official account, are they that desperate for new players
>>538364007lmao why is this so funny
>>538364085it's literally just some guy dicking around in the cosmodrome (dead content) and menusimagine trying to be a new player in the most volatile era
man they are really desperate to get people playing the destiny mobile game aren't they?all the ads are creators overexaggerating killing a few red bars, as if its the greatest thing ever.
>>538364180must have had an intern make it, this feels really low effort
>>538364261They did this for D2
See ya later, virgins
>>538364261
>>538364446UOOOOHHH BED BREAKING SEX WITH JOLDER
THE GAME LITERALLY GIVES YOU A PICTURE WITH THE PART YOU NEED TO SHOOT HIGHLIGHTED IN REDHOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO FUCK THAT UPI'M NEVER GETTING THIS FUCKING EMBLEM AAAAAAAA
>>538300609>mystery niggas
>>538354025It’s marvel slop combined with mysteries aren’t allowed for modern retards and that faggot shill always trying to defend Edge of Slops shit writing needs to find a new fucking job.
>>538361728Is The Cube a PvE looter shooter? I got extraction shooter vibes from it.
>>538366037JUST DIAL NIGGA I’LL FUCK YOU UP
>>538366930I'm like 95% sure thats what it is. I believe it will have some pvp in there but mostly its pve. One of the few games that im actually hyped for
>>538340931You need everything that's in the game. Until your tier 5 report is entirely green, you're not done grinding.
>>538364261Erm, that’s every D2 trailer
I can’t believe bungo managed to make a brigs vs tanks gamemode the most mediocre playlist in crucible.
>>538368046God I fucking hate Bungie's marketing department. They've been making the same trailer for ten years where the gun shots match the beat of some shitty rap song. I hate this brown-coded future.
>>538369469>shots of gun hip firing red bar enemy we’ve been killing since D1>Character with a relic that some coper will pray is an exotic melee weapon or new super>npc we are sick of talking about slop>uninspired non destiny sounding music
>>538370006>uninspired non destiny sounding musicEven Destiny music doesn't sound like Destiny music anymore. Anything post-Marty (2014) sucks and Music of the Spheres was the best thing he's ever done.>fired to make sure he didn't get his founder's shares, that he ended up suing for successfully anywaysFuck this gay earth. At least Six Days in Fallujah rocks.
>>538370202That game does in fact rock.
>>538370202>>538370302Yeah, I'm pretty sure Fallujah does have rocks :)
>>538370202Music of the Spheres is excellent for what it is, essentially a concept album, but how it was used in d1 wasn't actually that great. It was ham fisted into place. Remember that amazing track for The Last Array? Remember what you were actually doing in that mission, killing packs of 4 hive repeatedly while a percentage filled? It was totally mismatched. There are a lot of as strong"OST" tracks that are well scripted adaptively over the years.
>>538371125The Last Array track is so fucking good. Second favorite after SHIELD BROTHERS.
In Rising, Legendary weapons are pointless the second I start getting Mythic drops, right?
>>538373119Once you have a full complement of mythics, yea.
>>538373119Yes
>>538300609>post Warmind>Uldren kills cayde>takes hostile actions against humanity (the last city)>before the vanguard of the "good" awoken can even do anything Rasputin glasses the reef in retaliationa much better version of Forsaken
>>538300376You know full well that when she fails at that she'll come back and blame humanity for it.
>>538318960FINGERTIPS
>>538374238She will come back with an army of neon gay fallen through portals like in marvel slop to “save” the guardian from maya. Lmao. She Mythrax will thank here and she will be sassy and still a cunt. She will then leave and threaten to come back as an enemy next time.
>>538373119yep, soft sunset if you well
>>538373119Yeah but they give you materials regardless.
>>538356221I just got the new exotic sword too it's like a Solar Black Talon.When you use the sword in the bubble it has no delay so its insane.
>>538377652where do you get it?
>>538378346Complete current event objectives until you can earn the exotic.
>>538378490gotcha, thanks anon
>>538233123
Swords don’t have an ammo generation stat because… BECAUSE THEY JUST DON’T OK!!!#rapebungie
>>538377652It looks like one of Young Wolf's Howl's ornaments
>>538371125All Bungie games are like this, go back to Halo 1 or 3 and you’ll see that most levels are straight hallways with enemies placed left and right. What elevated the final escape sequence of Halo 3 was Marty’s music, without it it’s just a really boring warthog section where you essentially hold forward to win.
>>538373119Yep, as it should be
>shaders are single-userfuck, should've expected that considering it's a gacha but i'm so used to them being infinite. sucks to waste the exclusive raid event shader on a mediocre roll
>>538382290single use* not single user
>>538381480Sure, but at least there you understood the stakes etc. At the time when doing The Last Array, you didn't really know who or what Rasputin was and why this satellite dish was significant in any way.
>>538381480CE had some neat environmental storytelling, like the leadup to the first encounter with the Flood, and that entire level had almost no music. 2 and 3 had more spectacle and relied on the music more to create a complete package. Last Array was just kind of a mission that happened with the bulk of the context being in the Grimoire, but the music picked sounded like the climax of a major story beat.
>>538382290>come play destiny rising>they use the worst parts of D2Y1
>Destiny2 reddit is literally the nation of Doom>Destinyrising reddit is literally the nation of HopeChoose your side
>>538385840I choose the Nation of Playing Something Else.
pastaman says tarrabah nerf is ragebait by bungie
>>538381387Yeah it glows with fire cracks like that in game and also leaves the fire pool except it can fire the flames long distance like Black Talon.
Still need 4 more people with 5 hours left where are you guys?
>>538386103basedI'll play Pioner when it comes out. I really enjoyed the most recent beta (not the steam playtest)https://store.steampowered.com/app/3105890/PIONER/
>>538382290The way it works is it is an unlock for that gun so its still one time use but once you use it on a specific weapon you can apply it to any roll of that weapon. Still shit but not as bad as D2Y1.
>>538387968So it's like masterwork and mods then? They are also applied to all copies of the same weapon in Rising.
24 hours remain
>>538368865All they have to do is double the speed of everything.Faster brigs, faster tanks, faster firerates, faster cooldowns. Make it fucking chaotic like Scorched.
>>538387383I just started the game, how long until I can join clans?
>>538380180
>>5383914531 more sleep until ass and piss!!!!
>>538233123The 2 losers that make it their life goal to keep this general alive will commit suicide when it is gone so you have that to look forward to
>>538388991Pretty much yeah, basically if you get the Del Lassi-4 Scout Rifle and apply a green shader to it, whenever you get another Del Lassi-4 you can apply the green shader for free. Its basically a consumable to unlock the ability to put that shader on any version of that specific weapon.
did the TWAB really increase the doomposting outside of this place tenfold or something because "muh community morale" is supposedly in the toilet and this weekend was the most I've seen "destiny is dying bungie I'm BEGGING you to do something" on my feeds in a long time
>>538387968that's still gay but not as bad as i thought, luckily i put it on a good gun but there should really be an undo option even if it costs bright pigment or whatever>>538391887i forget when exactly but it's very early, not more than a couple of hours
>>538393510the only thing I want bungie to do is die faster, rip the fucking bandaid off and let's move on from this shit company. Every single individual employee currently or previously employed by bungie needs to be blacklisted
>>538393510if you would please consult the TWAB
>>538393510Pretty much. The blatant fact that Bungie revised something they were absolutely not going to budge on like the soft sunset of gear that isn’t from the same DLC in the new system and then the deal with Primes was basically telling how much of a sham so much was. For all the train man wheeling and dealing over delivery nonsense, I just don’t understand why they were so adamant on things that quite literally would have people bouncing from the game and/or just having no reason to buy a newly old DLC. EoF would’ve been completely pointless if you didn’t play it new if all the shit was irrelevant to being current and you’d really only buy it if you’re that into just owning a raid and campaign
>>538393510future proofing
>>538393510destiny reddit is fake doomposting> I am bungie's biggest fan and I have already purchased 6859 silver, but be warned in a humble way, I will only purchase 1200 silver if you don't buff warlocks> Excuse me, sorry, I don't mean to hurt your feelings, Mr. bungie, you saved my life and I will always be grateful to you, but allow me to think that you might, perhaps, if it doesn't hurt you too much, sorry, reconsider this decision.No wonder dmg still thinks he can change the course of events when he sees things like this.
>I love this game and think it is the best game ever and has no flaws and I am no toxic entitled hater and I pre-ordered all future content and pre-bought $100 worth of silver and have spent $1000 in the Bungie store and scarified my first born to Bungie and personally bought Pete Parsons a new car but I don't think Portal is good again I love the game and think its perfect and will never stop supporting it so please I beg you don't attack meI still can't decide if this is a zoomer thing or a reddit thing to see criticism as a bad thing
>>538394459granted I'm also talking about the 3-4 videos that spawned this week on youtube that's being recommended to me that are just named "the fall of bungie" or whatever-1 video from that guy that's been doomposting since lightfall on a weekly basis
>>538369469this is just every first person shooter shooter, and they're probably outsourced
Haven > The TowerDo you agree?
>>538396663>medieval slop
/dg/, what do you think would the 'death nail' for Destiny 2? A single line in a TWAB that would shit-can the game and make Sony step in.
>>538395083Sorry, I don't watch random player reviews on youtube. The only indisputable fact about the quality of the current product is the number of players on Steam, and it's miserable.
>>538396663Better than D2 tower? YesBetter than D1 tower? Hell no
"It's Mara-slop or Maya-slop, your choice" - Bungie
I am being completely sincere and unironic when I say that the Red Sea Rift storyline is a top three Destiny campaign in terms of writing
>>538396992why not both?in fact, why doesn't Mara does mating press Maya so she forgets about her former wife and moves on to a new lover
>>538397250I have skipped every possible thing I have the ability to skip in rising and just like in normal destiny, I have no idea wtf is going on and am only there to shoot aliens
>>538396816Destiny 2 is going to limp around for a while, I doubt they gonna make any more retarded TWABs, given their reception. And even if they are, it's still wouldn't be enough.What would kill Destiny for sure, is Marathon flopping, badly, which subsequently will lead to another wave of layoffs or devs simply jumping the ship.
>>538396816The one from 2 or 3 weeks ago where they said they were gonna make the grind worse, which they reverted after the backlash and then pat themselves on the back saying they listened, but still kept some of the shit changes in.That was the point a lot of people decided to leave and when the doomposting truly got out of hand after Bungie essentially doubled down and showed no plans of unfucking the game, all while showing their trademark animosity towards the players through dmg.
>>538398125bungie has been doing that for years, saying they're going to do something much worse, then pulling it back to their initial real plan of smaller nerfs while simultaneously being praised by the cult members thinking bungie actually "listened"
>>538397865D2 is dead because a couple months ago they made the retarded decision to release less new content and have you grind more content that you have already been grinding for 7 years just to make a pointless number go up and this and this alone would be the goal despite the fanbase saying they hate light levels and Bungie even making strides to remove it only to bring it back in the worst way possible and what will kill it is they can't revert this because they went all in with this
>>538397524It's a good thing most of the kino is in the gameplay then, the delivery "no, I'm a Guardian" was the most kino we've had in a while.
>>538396798Medieval slop but seen from Asia, it's like JRPGs versus RPGs, there's more beauty and poetry. In any case, it fits with the context of the period in which the game is set, with warlords and political turmoil.
>>538398125priority is balance even if they know it's bad, they would just fix it later since all their dev time is going towards the next expansionthey were retarded thinking that would go over well though
>>538398254>bungie even making strides to remove itthe power rework was happening under joes watch don't forget that
>>538398254It's astonishing that Bungie has earned a reputation as a genius in live services when the management of Destiny 2 and its community is one of the biggest failures in history. It proves that the entire entertainment industry is a circus beyond words.
>>538398651Bungie has "rebooted" Destiny 1 and 2 so god damn many times that you have to wonder if these faggots that say that are even paying attention. This to me is a sign that they were always managed bad that no system they create sticks around
>>538398651it's because people forget Rare exists and sea of thieves has been massively successful but out of the mainstream and not discussed widely, probably also because of no controversies or anything that sells media stories
>>538397282"Mara-slop" unfortunately means Marathon not Mara Sov
If the exotic mission is free for everyone what are the retards actually paying for?
>>538399508
>>538396798>castle ruins are just a small part of it>90% of hub looks like a standard mix of old/new Tower/Last City districts>Medieval slop
>>538399291oh.however my statement still stands, Maya needs correction from Mara
>>538387383Unfortunately you chose to play on the retarded american server instead of the european one where the good players are.
>>538399508Earlier access to the reward pass exotic and a portal score multiplier
>>538397524Soulless.

>>538401346I know you love gay robosexuals but stop trying to force that shit on me
>>538401324Update your gpu driver.
>>538401324There's probably an agreement between Netease and Bungie to keep it off consoles and PC because Bungie didn't want to risk losing ground.
Here's how I will torture dmg:Number 1: The Marrow Furnace. I'll inject liquid metal into his bones, boiling them from the inside.Number 2: The Nerve Harvester. Each nerve fibre will be plucked and strung, vibrating with agony.Number 3: The Organ Grinder. His organs will be twisted and cranked, a grotesque puppet of pain.Number 4: The Skin Weaver. His skin will be peeled and rewoven, a living tapestry of torment.Number 5: The Eyeball Crucible. His eyes will be roasted and replaced with burning coals.Number 6: The Mind Flayer his thoughts will be shredded, echoes of endless torment. He will be forced to grind caldera for all eternity.
I'm the idiot still in a clan with the 2 guys who slurp down Datto's opinions and this time around they're in total disagreement with Datto because they think "the last 50 levels should be a mark of hardcore players and deserves to be long" and they feel that the shit drop rate is actually really fair and "so easy to climb in the background". These are guys who play the game practically like a fulltime job at their fake email job and say how "the grind was really not that bad, people just like to complain". If it wasn't for these guys being standby to do raid seals to max and run things I'd be long gone but just absolute addict slobs. One of these guy's girlfriend left him because he spent money that was intended for a weekend vacation rental on skins in some shit gacha
Tommorow is in your hands
>>538402358i feel bad for you dude, im about 407 but i refused to put my balls in the woodchipper that is farming for that 1 in 20 in solo ops. idk how much you care about em, but such drooling retards deserve everything they have coming to them
>>538402358same anon, but i cannot fathom people who just sit there and grind. unless your a streamer. but i may be getting old. but i have enough self respect to play for an hour or 2 then jump to warframe or helldivers which is way more fun per time invested
>>538402662grim. ghastly even.
>>538402358the final grind from 400-450 and every season's equivalent should be from doing endgame content, so master raids, master dungeons, flawless trials and high-rank comp, and whatever else would be considered endgame.you should get high light level drops from these activities, instead of mindlessly grinding one activity days on end just to receive one 5% drop.leave those odds for randomly rolled gear, not light level
>>538402785Can't wait
>>538402785Can't wait to see 4 awkward aging millennials and gen x one being a tranny of course exaggerating how awesome Star Wars is. You want to piss the faggot Destiny redditors off and really make them mad? When they make a thread tomorrow for this stream keep posting how Star Wars is old boomer shit that no one cares about anymore it really angers the "dad gamers" who haven't come to terms with how old they are
>>538404392Saying that Star Wars isn't a western is enough to piss them off
>>538401627Anon it wasn't Bungie writing the story this time around it was about fallen being irredeemable niggers that deserve to be slaughtered, devil splicers, ahamkara, Vex being based kicking people off their lawn and militaristic Cabal sieging a town.
>>538401627>>538404973Yeah the protagonists ghost is about five minutes from shouting TOTAL FALLEN DEATH at any given time it's great
TFD
what if Bungie gives us sexy Sith women before EA/Ubisoft does
It's been 10 years and I am still mad at when people used to use map exploits to beat every nightfall when D1 first came out and Bungie said we are doing it wrong but never released a single video showing the "proper" way to do them. I don't think it was possible to beat those nightfall bosses the same way you would when you saw them in strikes
>>538405476i dread them giving us classic strikes but with that new coat of bullshit where it has health gates, and retarded mechanics. the taken version of that big hydra strike with the aegis is pretty good. but you know they would fuck it up more with a mid strike plate shitting mechanic or whatever time wasting bullshit they wanna crank out
the most recent chapter of One Piece is titled, "The Island of Destiny", and the manga is going on another short break.Destiny 2 is having new content released tomorrow, as well as showing what's to come in December.
red sea is pretty but it feels too small compared to jiangshi

>>538407035>>538407154DC and NYC are soulless.Give me the Bayous of Lousiana
>>538398557The power rework on its own wasn't a problem, and honestly I'd say it's ultimately beneficial for the system. The main issue is that the pace of upgrades within that power rework are ass. If you could get to 450 or even 400 within a couple strong weekends of grinding (let's say 10~20 hours), nobody would've minded and the conversation would be significantly different. The most fucked up parts are:>This pace isn't a core part of the design of the power system, meaning it's not integral to the system's function that we get upgrades this slowly.>This pace can easily be tuned in MAYBE a day's dev time. That we've had to wait this long for even minor tuning indicates a level of incompetence or malice out of Bungie that means the grind length is incredibly deliberate.I really do hope that some day we get a Tell-All expose on what the fuck Bungie was thinking at this point.
>>538405373They thought letting guardians wear the ugliest high heels ever put in a video game was "spicy".You'll be lucky if you get something discernable as a female in the Star Wars shit.
>>538401627Imagine destiny 1 but with an actual decent story and tons of exposition about the world and how humanity is handling the collapse centuries after it occurred, right off the bat. No having to wait for grimoire, no having to wait for an entire year to know exactly what the fuck is going on. That's rising. I understand you don't care about the worldbuilding of the game or whatever but don't slander it by accusing it of being the same faggoty homosexual buttsex poop-quirk writing Bungie devolved into.
>>538408678Agreed. The other thing is for how much there's also this "Tyson Green beats his dick to Baal runs in D2 ladders" ARPG inspiration talk , we can't even conventionally do pushing like you could in an ARPG where you're getting higher quality rewards because you went in and completed it at such a deficit. The fact how loot just scales +1-4 levels(depending where you're at of course) for how little or more shit you piled on just sets things to be unbelievably stretched out. It also feels insane when there's idiots actually saying "uhm the grind from 10-400 feels the same like it was on a new expansion to pinnacle cap". I mean sure if you specifically were playing inefficient as possible on one character and missing plenty, maybe but what we have currently does take significantly longer.I get there was that leak from the TFS summit of leveling changes that listed Lvl 1-100, flat number that covers your gear levels, you always get xp in background but weekly challenge and pathfinder is the more solid 1/2-1 level up, but I imagine that was scrapped because they know people would've just found the spammable afk farm spots and been done with it in an instant, also it does paint how pointless stuff still is. I agree though a lot of this shit is just arbitrary padding.
>>538409345unironically I thought the person I was replying to was referencing destiny 2 stories not rising. I have nothing against rising and feel that it's a better all around product than d2 at this point
>>538408214That's Hunt: Showdown, and it's kino.
>>538408678Don't forget when they said this about the pacing, which was 2 weeks before they announced the nerfs that they've since been pressured into canceling.
>>538409712Exactly.Just remove the extraction-slop and the fantasy shit and you are golden.
>>538409535The fact is I could do all the little yellow symbols for 2-3 weeks and be max level, maybe 20-25 hours playtime total, and I played a wide variety of activities to do that. To be honest, I dont mind the once a year power climb. It got me doing old content at least once a year, and that was fine. It's them trying to make it a replacement for seasonal stuff that kills. The new tier system is good. Make me do a checklist of hard stuff to reunlock Tier 5, then let me farm, then I'll be back on to do it again for the next season. This shit isn't hard, and they already had this solved during lightfalls year (seasons wise)
>>538409535even if they fix how much you progress it still won't fix how awful it is managing all your tiered armor, unstable cores, and armor dropsi would be more interested in them cutting the power grind in half and having new tiers drop on every 50 levels than them increasing the rate you level up
also where do patrols fit in with the portalthere's basically no reason to do any patrols
I know I've been told by this general to not reinstall this game because I already had (more or less) the best times already, but is A&I tomorrow worth coming back for? I don't wanna puke up 100 bucks on expansions for strand and chromatic and whatnot, especially with Battlefield 6 coming up.
>>538411214nah just play rising on an emu if you want a destiny fix
>>538411214A&I is free but it will also be nothing
>>538411096Nothing in the world tab exists apart from the Enclave and Tower. Kepler is the only destination, and Kepler doesn't have patrols.
>>538411214>Plaguelands with no Plague>A villain you won't know or care about because they're from shit you can't play anymore>No new enemiesYou tell me anon
>>538411214all we're getting for ash and iron is an exotic mission and a new activity so no
>>538411214Ash and Iron is one activity, one exotic mission, and a new battle pass. Does that sound like it's worth reinstalling for?
>>538411214I still urge you not to take part in Bungie's current humilliation ritual but you can technically get every previous expansion for 15 bucks + other games in this month's humble choice.
>>538410726I agree, leveling isn't content and when RNG still is a factor, people would rather have time spent getting the stuff they want not leveling for access to things or basically leveling to just level. I don't really get why Bungie are such fucking retards with this shit. Go back to Lake of Shadows x2 Rewards speedruns, just because extra shit was dropping and you ran stuff quickly didn't automatically mean you were squared away with getting a god roll Palindrome or whatever.
>>538411301Half of my destiny fix is all the exotics and retarded shit I had on my hunter though, like crimson and last word.>>538411335The "free" thing is why I'm asking, to see if I could wring out a month or even a couple weeks of gametime without buying the (overpriced) expansions.>>538411569>one activity>one exotic missionDamn that's rancid. God damn bungie for doing "battered wife simulator" instead of live service for their video game.
>>538411569Who is better and who will you main Ash or Iron?
>>538411214Oh if you've not played in that long, I wouldn't even bother, put that money on a root beer float or something.
In Bungie we trust.
>>538411214>worth coming back forYeah but imo you're going to uninstall it again in one or two weeks, unless the update comes with a giant destination to patrol and at least two activities
What if Reclaim is more than just a name here? What if the never before seen mechanic is guardians fighting to open and keep open sections of the Plague Lands to receive rewards or access secrets like the exotic mission? But more powerful enemies will surge calling for more high level completions to keep or /reclaim/ the area. Something like a legally distinct Helldivers 2 limited to a small area.
desu, this update and starwars expansion can't be worst than EoF
>>538412031Iron is a good guy. He means well. And he’s a strong leader
>>538412079I installed for a couple hours back in 2024 to get mad at crucible, but I haven't properly played since early 2020. I think with the exception of shadowkeep and fors->go to google>forsaken got vaultedOkay, with the exception of shadowkeep every expansion I own is vaulted.It just keeps getting worse and worse.
>>538412516gta san andreas already did it
>>538412707Ash is strong you retard
>>538401065>Jolder: Ash KetchumWhat the fuck.
>>538412774The Dreaming City still exists, but not the good part of Forsaken or the campaign. Shit isn't fair.
>>538401065ikora isn't gina torres in rising
The power grind is good. Ideally, we should only have ~1000 people in the world in full t5. It should be incredibly rare, a sign of absolute dedication, and it shouldn't be achievable at all without clearing raids.
it's funny to remember bungie thought matterspark was impressive enough to be the focal point of their entire expansion when rising has like four different patrol gimmicks that are more fun than it and they're all just side content. if bungie came up with the wire shooting puzzles they would've advertised them as A WHOLE NEW WAY TO PLAY...HACK INTO THE CIRCUITRY OF YOUR FOES... and charged 80 for eof
>>538414860thisi think a single piece of T5 should be behind at least 500 hours of gameplay. this is my true and honest mmo opinion. tourists do not @ me
>>538412774Shadowkeep is Free to Play now, too.Which means all your money was good for is the raid (which is in the running for Least Played Raid) and the dungeon (which is better regarded but most people only play it to get Xenophage and then dip).
>>538414947Them CCs and BDFs gaslighting the community telling everyone how GOOD Matterspark was and how it basically changed the game yet at the same time having no idea if it would affect the game outside of the patrol zone.the DCJ sub basically became a bungie dickriding sub after EoF fucking bombed lmao
>>538414860T5 gear should be rewarded from playing the hardest content.
>>538413803Women are always the voice of boys in anime
>>538414860If T3~T4 was reasonably accessible within 10~20 hours of play, and then T5 exclusively was behind a 100+ hour grind, sure. I think people would be cool with that. The difference between a T4 and T5 piece of loot is mostly just better odds on Column 3/4 perks, but the odds aren't THAT much better.But there's people who didn't even bother getting to T3, because the grind is demanding MMO time without MMO power. If you grind for 80 hours in an MMO for a piece of loot, you're usually getting a power spike that has you laying waste to all of your enemies, and invoking the jealousy of your peers that haven't done that grind. In Destiny, if you do an 80 hour grind, you get an SMG that sets somebody on fire slightly faster.
>>538415494>Shadowkeep is Free to Play now, too.Yeah, I saw that too. Effectively all my spending has been for naught only a few years after the fact, and precious little will be given to me without a pricetag.
>>538401065>wolfI want latina hag saggers in my mouth NOW
>>538415494The tunnels are also being added to the portal(the loot will drop, but won't be refreshed), so I think the only rewards that won't be available to everyone are the ship and emblems.
>>538414860get a job
>reach 400>slog is 100x worse, both in terms of rewards and number of modifiers needed to get the rewardsThink I'll get off the train here
>>538414860get a handjob
4 more posts until a new general, this one will be legendary come tomorrow
>>538401830How much do you want to bet that Rising has made more money than Bungie in the last 2 years in this week.
>>538417714It'll get worse tomorrow unless you're already running featured gear in every slot
You know I had no idea how bad the leveling was until this last weekend when I decided to take it seriously for a few days and try to get to 400 before the Ash reset purely to see if I could. I start at like 360 from casual play. I grinded fireteam ops and found it is literally a noob trap. Hard as balls depending on the phase of the moon and you get like nothing for doing it. Right now when it comes to leveling only solo makes any sense to do at all. Its more rewarding, faster, easier and you have full control over the retarded shitty modifiers bungie is so proud of. Hell I thought you guys were over selling the disparity here but no if anything you all undersold it. It's night and day. This is the one way everyone should be leveling now and into the future. This is truly a broken system. Made it to 390 before I tapped out. got like four random tier 4 guns in 30 levels. All shit. All immediately infused or shards. Back to the land of casuals I go glad to be rid of the big number go up curse.
>>538364446Hope you don't pass out
About to try the mobile version. Wish me luck bros.
>538414860he's just throwing shit into the water
>>538417984All but one slot. I'm all in on hammers and I know of no featured weapon that rolls with One-Two Punch.
>>538418050>noob trapsWorking as intended. The entire system is basically a field of tar pits that if you're not playing with some methodical purpose, you're virtually never going to make meaningful progress and get the more rewarding stuff. Now sure you got slobs who worship content creators saying how great it is "levels mean something now" and that it's all an indicator how much of a grinder you are, but reality is it's just trying to sell leveling as content(bad) and have that stand sufficient enough for lack of content and reward structures in other more appealing parts of the game. Even the one person on the livestream panel lied through their teeth with "we want the demanding harder content to be more rewarding and not just have people run the same 1 thing", a raid shouldn't be so skimpy and unrewarding compared to just running Caldera all day. But yes the post 400(soon to be 500) experience is absolute bullshit and the getting there feels even more pointless. Nobody likes things that are disposable and waste as much time as they do with the unfun parts.
How do you guys feel about Bungie probably dying to the lawsuits and disasters and our shared 10-year long journey coming to an end as Destiny shuts down
>>538419252It's an unholy union between Ivory Tower Design and Disposable Effort Design.We've finally reached the pinnacle of Live Service.
>>538419406it don't matternone of this matters
>>538419218The Kepler shotgun and the two shotgun HCs are it, and I'm aware that it's nerfed on the HCs.
