I'm accidentally a suicide bomber!

I've put way too many hours into this game over the last few months, so I think I might sit the first expansion out and wait to see what happens with the second one. Not that I don't feel that I've gotten my money's worth, but I don't feel like there is much new content coming down the pipeline via these expansions.

That blows. I was hoping it would be their way of sneaking in 323 attack VoG weapons.

I just realized that I spent 20 hours on my hunter, I have 60 crucible marks which would be fine since I could buy (tomorrow) a new piece of armor... if I loving had dead orbit at level 3 already. :argh:
I have a ton of materials but I can't spend them anymore for rapidly grinding my crucible rep :sigh:

I imagine that yes, the moment you are playing the expansion, you'll start getting the new currencies including commendations, whatever those are.

As far as anyone can tell it will all happen at 1AM tonight.

I found a legendary helmet engram this morning that I'm not going to turn in until then, just in case. My helmet's exotic anyway.

I enjoy the ever living hell out of Destiny and was really excited for tomorrow, but knowing that Bungie is racist towards Xbox just kills it for me.

I got 2 Legendary secondaries yesterday. So are they going to be shiny new stuff if I open them tomorrow, or the old and busted junk? I thought the contents were determined once they dropped.

Their level is determined, not the actual item.

Like blue engrams dropped on my titan and transferred to my warlock will decrypt as warlock gear. Legendaries can always be for any class so maybe they are determined at drop, but I'm not sure why they'd do it that way if blue engrams already work another way.

Why should I not get upset? It's clear that the strike was ON DISK DLC that was available since DAY 1 so it should be free to both the xbone and paying customers of the game!!! :argh:

VoG doesn't become obsolete. It's still a good raid for characters at light level 26-30.

My main reason for wanting that new PS4 strike is that it's obviously an enormous glimmer farm. It's several massive waves of vex with lots of yellow nameplates.. probably better than Exclusion Zone because it also comes with strike rewards.

maybe if they let you level guns/armor in there now it would work
