To stop listening to the moon joke!  e: Re hunters, don't worry and play a warlock. On the other hand I started liking them only after deleting my first hunter at level 7 and recreating it. It's quite squishy and useless alone against PvE mobs and bosses, but it's quite powerful with a good team and in PvP. I think it will mostly be my crucible class when I can't find goons to play with online. limaCAT fucked around with this message at 18:30 on Jul 16, 2014 |

IGN just showed another ghost location inside the Devil's Lair strike. I knew one (a room near the spider tank, maybe they will show it later). Unfortunately I couldn't understand where that ghost was. (Near the room where you defend your ghost while he hacks some shields?).

Undead Muppet posted:I don't know if anyone has mentioned it before, but I like that the mp has a little bit of an anti-camper mechanic. When you ADS, the mini-map disappears. So anyone hiding in a corner ADS at a doorway is opening themselves up to a surprise flank attack. Can't wait to see what mp modes the final game has. The icons from Alpha looked like a CTF mode, a DM/TDM mode, and the rest I couldn't really interpret. Mr Longhair posted this but I saw it by accident, so I think it's repost-worthy: http://imgur.com/a/BKqju Multiplayer MP modes description from the IGN stream

The "Ghost" is the glue. I still think Peter Dinklage was hung over for one of his voice acting sessions. But overall, the first quarter of the game is looking and sounding really good. Can't wait to try a raid.  I still have to go over the work day!!! p.s.: do you see other regions in explore mode other than Soviet Russia?

Oh well, I used to have the official xbox one thread (even if I hated it). No one of the xbone supporters wanted to open one even if that clearly meant having one person less trolling their own thread. That's goons for you.

Tonight it opened with two panic moments. The first was before dinner, the game would not launch from the main square. I had to get into the library and launch it from there  .The second was after dinner, PSN was down for maintenance, but apparently everyone in this thread reported about that MrLonghair posted:Alright, the story has me interested bigtime. If it was a 600+ page scifi book I'd read the heck outta it. Yup. I think the script wasn't finished / polished when they recorded that wizard moon line. I mean, it would feel too much out of context right now since it's established that the ghost knows what hit the earth, that the fallen are already on the ground, and you see spaceships landing in the first mission, probably including the masters of the hive, wizards included. Oh well, I paid 40€ for a stupid t-shirt and I will get from it a stupid t-shirt.  MrLonghair posted:Had a good few missions with limaCAT despite the in-game music deafening our voices, a welcome break from doing them solo which is a good fun challenge though it makes you feel that the stronger targets are bulletsponges. What a rush they were, too! Am I wrong or did bungie add a bit more weapons drops from the missions? Well, it's also true that there was only one mission. I hope we will see a three goon team for the strike!

The game threw at me a green pulse rifle and green armor with pulse rifle bonuses. Too bad it's all level 5 gear, but maybe I'll keep that for PVP. Static Rook posted:Don't crush my dreams of being a close range cannon/shotty stealthy quick guy. I suspect you will soon find out you will eventually need to cover both short range and midrange, exp if you plan on surviving on First Light, strike and explore mode, and later when pubbies will eventually learn to actually use location tracker and not just ADS around every single inch of the map.

Static Rook posted:Yeah, I don't know sensible the build actually is, it just sounded fun. I think it could work on Rusted Lands or generally on Control with some team mates good at gathering attention, but once I ran with that combo in explore mode and some limited pvp and it left me with a sour taste. Static Rook posted:I want to use the Beta to mess around and try stuff so I'll have a better idea of what I want to use for the full release. That's why I hope nothing carries over, I'm not optimizing poo poo for the beta. Agree. Static Rook posted:I did find it funny that the enemy A.I. for the first couple of missions was basically "if the player is here then we all run to point A, and if the player is there we all move to point B." I just ran between two cover spots and picked off the Fallen guys off as they ran between their hotpoints.I'm sure that will stop working once I get into the real meat of the game, but it was funny to watch over and over. What level were they? If I remember correctly an higher level means a better A.I. too...

I was playing with two goons earlier, and we joined the crucible. Unfortunately our team was split, 2 in alpha team and me in the bravo team, alone with some pubbies.  After some time I was kicked out both from the fireteam and from the crucible and the game gave me error code bee. 404GoonNotFound posted:So have they confirmed that Crucible grinding will be the ONLY way to get Faction gear? This... feels kinda bullshit, if that limits PvE types to only two high-end sets total. I think I read that you can grind Future War Cult and Dead Orbit by carrying one of their marks and completing vanguard (i.e. explore mode) objectives too, but there was no entry level Dead Orbit / FWC mark (they required you to have an high faction rating already).

SealHammer posted:Does anyone feel like lag in the Crucible is worse than it was in the alpha test? Despite all the polish on the game, I can't help but feel that the enormous delay (sometimes up to a second) between punching a guy and him dying is longer than it was before or even in the Halo games. Lag is quite random. I actually had more lag in some strike missions than in pvp, but I noticed some good crucible games and some bad ones. Was also kicked out by psn maintenance

a cop posted:Sorry if I missed a post saying this but what was the new pvp mode? Just a new map with gear effecting your stats? Or was it something other than Control (or whatever the Territories one is called) It's control without the weapons limitation. MrLonghair and I were confused because after entering the tournament the announcer said "Control" and we landed on venus (we expected it to have either mars or rusted lands, not the two current control maps, venus and moon), however for winning the game gave us 25 tournament faction points.

This morning I quit after I surprised myself thinking: "Ok, when the game releases I should get another titan with a pre-set equipment for level-capped deathmatch and keep my main for exploration and non-level-capped deathmatch, and a third as an equipment mule and to show off the best matching gear". The Dragon's Dogma curse... it begins!

For a reason the vanguard bounty "kill 30 enemies without being damaged by them" won't reset if you get hit by one of them, so you can just cover part of it together with "kill 20 enemies by meele". Unfortunately the exp you take from redeeming bounties from the tower won't be used towards the "gain 9000 exp without dying". I also really love the fact that some open areas in missions are shared with people running explore mode.

It's disheartening how a good team can make or break crucible. We ended up being 3 because of pubbie ragequits, but the team we were up against was not even trying to rush the checkpoints.xxEightxx posted:Is there a point to upgrading the ship/sparrow right now? Showing off to the world your taste in vehicular fashion? bobtheconqueror posted:I'm pretty sure the "kill 30 enemies without being damaged by them" isn't continuous, so if an enemy hits you, it won't count towards the bounty, cause that one hurt you, but you won't lose credit for the earlier ones. Killing 30 enemies without getting damaged by anything at all would be kinda bonkers. I see. Well, you can snipe your way in the opening areas of Old Russia. The 9000 exp bounty is way more brutal. Was at 8000xp, then I remembered Mr Longhair's post about the radio in the shipyards and went to check the new area down there. Was one shotted by a ?? Acolite of Assholery or whatever. Had to gain back those 9000xp  e: Celebrant of Oryx? More like Celebrant of Orifice.

When you fall down in a no respawn area, what's the best way to tell off people not to rescue you if there are mobs camping you? I started telling off at 25, 15 and 5 seconds left, and if there are big mobs camping my dead rear end. Is there some good and clear army jargon I can use with my super mario accent in those cases?

magimix posted:What? If you are in a match-made fireteam you still can't talk to your team-mates? I'm mis-reading you, right? Nope, not at all, the official reason is that Bungie wants to keep the game the most griefing-free as it's possible. Steve2911 posted:This reminds me; the invisible walls you occasionally run into are super frustrating in a game with so much focus on mobility. Hopping around the environment only to jump between two rocks and fall flat on your face isn't a fun time, and even the walls covering the entries enemies spawn through are irritating. More than once I've tried to walk through the door the first group of Hive come through in the Moon Wizard mission. I'm sure there's a more elegant solution to indoor enemy spawns... I agree with this, but it looks to me dark entryways, spawn closets and ceiling trapdoors will be a staple of this game.
