[QUOTE=Chains!;48353595]Don't buy it yet. Wait a month. You can then pick up Legendary Edition for about $60. Includes Destiny, First 2 DLC's and Taken king.[/QUOTE] The PS4 I've ordered is the MGSV limted edition one so I won't get it until the 1st anyway. That sounds good though, thanks for the heads up.
can i just ask why someone is playing destiny at all when they're so antisocial that they cannot talk to some random people for an hour to participate in the most fun piece of content this game has to offer? like destiny is just not the game for you i get that most of it can be beaten solo but it wasn't meant to be and it is a hell of a lot more fun and easier too when done with the correct number of players
Did the entire Thorn bounty in 4 hours! That was much less painless then I thought it would be.
[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;48354938]Did the entire Thorn bounty in 4 hours! That was much less painless then I thought it would be.[/QUOTE] If you can average a 1.0k/d and 15 kills using Void weapons, you get around 45 points a game. Took me about 10 or so games using a void primary on my friends account. 15 without it on my account. Honestly isn't that bad of a bounty. Takes a lot less time than the bad juju.
[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;48351616]What I'm trying to get at, is that raids should be designed for EVERYONE. Not just friends.[/QUOTE] I have never played destiny with friends lol How are people this oblivious to LFG sites

I just camped heavily contested control points and would leave if my KD dipped below 1.0.
[QUOTE=the tee;48352946]Why's that? They did this so people could form communities and socialize with each other.[/QUOTE] That's a really horrible excuse. Originally it was because they felt the endgame content was "too difficult" for random groups to complete. Considering most groups that complete the endgame raids are random groups that is obviously bullshit. Now they are doing it because it makes people socialize with each other? "How can we get players to be social and form strong communities with each other?" "Lets leave out key features that allow players to socialize and create communities so they are forced to use third party sites for that purpose" "Sound perfect!"
[QUOTE=BusterBluth;48355261]That's a really horrible excuse. [/QUOTE] It is. But it sounds better than "we don't have time in our milestone schedule to add it". Bungie has always focused on content more than usability. (Just look at the Grimoire shit) [QUOTE=PieClock;48353765]The PS4 I've ordered is the MGSV limted edition one so I won't get it until the 1st anyway.[/QUOTE] Well the Facepunch clan hasn't been active since May, but feel free to add me if you need somebody to sherpa you through content! PSN is Fancy Raptor.

(Just look at the Grimoire shit) [/QUOTE] Its about as basic a feature as you can get though. Its ridiculous, I have no clue why people defend it.
[QUOTE=BusterBluth;48355530]Its about as basic a feature as you can get though. Its ridiculous, I have no clue why people defend it.[/QUOTE] Yeah, it should be in the game.
[QUOTE=BusterBluth;48355530]Its about as basic a feature as you can get though. Its ridiculous, I have no clue why people defend it.[/QUOTE] I'm okay with it because the community does a better job than Bungie would do.
I don't see why there would be anything wrong with just having matchmaking for stuff like nightfall and PoE, raid matchmaking shouldn't be a thing tho
[QUOTE=Bathtub;48356282]I don't see why there would be anything wrong with just having matchmaking for stuff like nightfall and PoE, raid matchmaking shouldn't be a thing tho[/QUOTE] Why? It is a thing, that's what most people do.
[QUOTE=BusterBluth;48356393]Why? It is a thing, that's what most people do.[/QUOTE] I mean automatic matchmaking like with the weekly heroic, not going online and finding people.
raid matchmaking really wouldn't be a big deal. you could still play with your pro raid team if you want.
people like to give the argument that there should be raid matchmaking because you don't HAVE to use it if you don't want to but these people would be the first to be crying on bungie.net or reddit when they inevitably get matched with awful players non stop and can't even beat the damn thing

Didn't nightfalls have matchmaking for a time? I think that was before I took a long hiatus from the game for a couple of months.
[QUOTE=Bathtub;48356467]also, unless they changed it so you can toggle matchmaking, you wouldn't be able to solo/duo raids anymore which would suck because that's fun as hell[/QUOTE] another good point that I never thought of me and my friends frequently do vog with 3 or crota with 2-4 and we would rather play with just us than be forced to have a few randoms tag along

They could just put a little search button in the corner of the screen.
you need a sunsinger to kill himself then rez just after atheon teleports then time's vengeance gives him his super back so he can do it again each time [editline]2nd August 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;48356525]That's why it would be OPTIONAL.

I'm guessing you do one portal normally while the third guy opens the other portal, have the relic guy go mid to handle minotaurs and then send the original portal guy to help out with the remaining portal?
one guy goes in first portal and gets the relic relic guy and another guy go to 2nd portal and 3rd guy goes conflux BOTH players on 2nd portal go in, relic guy fires super at the gatekeeper to put him half health or lower then immediately exits and holds portal open, the guy still inside finishes off the gatekeeper with sniper / rockets and brings 2nd relic out, then it's easy relic guy might have to hang around to cleanse the dude inside the 2nd portal before he exits to hold the capture point

Two guys on Mars sync plate, one guy on Venus. Once the Mars portal opens, one guy goes in and Gjallahorns the Gatekeeper to get the Relic while the other guy stays outside and defends the plate. After the guy in the portal gets the relic, he goes outside, cleanses, and defends conflux. As soon as relic guy leaves the Mars portal, the other Mars guy goes over and jumps in the Venus portal and gets the relic in there while the 3rd guy defends the Venus sync plate. Venus relic guy comes out, both relic guys kill praetorians.
whatever suits you I guess, both ways seem easy to do, I don't see either having any advantage over the other except with our way the relic super knocks the gatekeeper down to like 33% health instantly
[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;48356441]raid matchmaking really wouldn't be a big deal. you could still play with your pro raid team if you want.[/QUOTE] "Your pro raid team" How childish can you act about this dude.
[QUOTE=o DefcoN o;48356604]whatever suits you I guess, both ways seem easy to do[/QUOTE] What about oracles? Did you guys snipe from up top or stay on the ground? Personally, I prefer the ground, especially considering we would only be a group of 3, but I can see the advantages to staying up top and sniping.
So, not exactly a huge achievement but i finally got my Warlock to Light level 30! So now ill get that sweet year one reward. time to get Hunter to 30 \o/
