monkeu posted:I got the CQCs and they add just the right amount of height for what I wanted - they're longer but no so much that it's a pain to go from the right stick back to the face buttons. I actually bumped the look sensitivity up a few notches too which I hadn't intended on doing. I actually just ordered a second set for my other controller. Very happy with them! Can't wait to try them with Destiny. Are these the concave or convex ones?

Harrow posted:Any bets on how long raids stay no-matchmaking? Personally I think it's a good idea--if they opened it up to random groups, said random groups would inevitably find them too hard and whine all over every possible internet outlet about it--but, well, there will also be whining in this scenario. I'll be surprised if they don't add matchmaking for raids (and make raids easier to accommodate) before the end of the year. I'm guessing not until they release their second raid.

Speaking of handcannons, based on the Gamescom trailer they're already getting improved. The exotic gun they showed had faster reload and a bigger mag than what is currently in the database.

DarkAvenger211 posted:Is there enough info out on subclasses to know if you can change them sometime later or not? Sure. You can change between the two subclasses with no restrictions*. If you select to "lock" a subclass, you create a new blank copy of it and gain a boost to your primary stat (armor/agility/recovery). You can then use the locked subclass, or re-level the blank copy at an accelerated pace if you decide you no longer like the choices you made. * Maybe there's a restriction to changing it during combat, that's not know. Probably not though.

SlimGoodbody posted:In the beta, it seemed to me that every time I started to wonder when I was gonna level, I would get preempted with a level up notification. Also, every level felt like it gave me something noticeable and fun. I'm psyched. I can't imagine it being too bad, even if the release slows down XP. Green weapons will replace white ones so you keep having new stuff to grind and unlock. Same when rares start to replace greens, etc., so you'll still be getting those new skill/new attachement pop-ups all the time

MrLonghair posted:Do you still have to complete the raid to get an achievement/trophy? And with ones clan. That could be the hardest challenge not most easily done through time. I can see selling achievement-desperate slots in clans for raids.. It's going to be hilarious to see the platinum/gamerscore whiners bitch about the four raid and/or clan achievements.

Fifty Three posted:I may actually have trouble with those, too. I usually play with a small group of friends and I don't think they're all getting this on 360. It really only matters if you care for gamerscore/trophies. Otherwise everything except for 2-3 (Raid, Hard Raid, Clan Raid) of them are perfectly possible and 1 (Clan Strike) might require a bit of work.

Looks like the Expansions are actually a bit bigger than I thought, by virtue of having a Raid.quote:We call it an expansion because it has one of all the activity types from Destiny, so it's story, strike and beyond – and competitive and cooperative experiences in there. As well as new gear, new armor, new weapons and everything else. haveblue posted:Normal Crucible is the one where things are constrained and smoothed down to an even playing field. Iron Banner lets you go hog wild after the skill check (presumably they are using modified ELO like every other matchmaking service in the universe). Sort of, you still benefit from all your equipment perks. So items like Crest of Alpha Lupi seem like a massive advantage in PvP modes where you can rez your team, for example.

Symphoric posted:I'm probably too old to ever get good at PvP again, but I want that stuff no matter how long it takes me to get it with my rockin' 0.5 K/D ratio. You can slowly get PvP stuff through PvE activities, so there is that at least.

Pretty much. This is what happens when you stop feeding us information, Bungie Retards start to make poo poo up for clicks.

Karthe posted:Has there been any word on whether we'll get to visit other parts of Earth? I'm really hoping there'll be some content that lets us explore the city directly beneath the Traveler, if only for some world-building. On top of what The Cameo said, Bungie confirmed that stuff like Old Chicago was just research material and will not be part of the game unelss they change their mind later down an expansion.

GodofGravity posted:I don't think we've seen any official stats on the gear yet, but the assumption is that it will be fairly low level starting gear that will probably be replaced early on. But we do actually, and it's not starting stuff! Monte Carlo and Hawkmoon are level 20 Exotics. The armors (Manifold Seeker, Argus Deimatic, Vanir) are level 15 rares with random perks, so basically they're stuff you'll be looting. It's also quite unlikely that you'll simply be given the weapons, since they're basically end-game level stuff. And both guns, while not having any crazy/funky perks, have really useful effects.

BastardySkull posted:I thought the Vanguard armory stuff is to replace the poo poo starter gear you get given but apparently not? Vanguard Armory =/= PS4 exclusive items. The Vanguard stuff is bought off the Vanguard Quartermaster at 1000 glimmer a pop. So basically it's cheap as hell, better than white quality items... but they have no perks. The no-perk stuff might change at some point before launch, but yeah it's pretty much a way of buying whatever weapon type you want without dealing with the RNG, and they have slightly better stats.

BastardySkull posted:Vanguard Armory early access is a preorder exclusive. The Vanguard stuff is only described as "early access", so it could go either way (free vs buy pieces, I know about the pre-order only requirement). But looking at the promo video for it, you get the items off the vendor and there's a glimmer price. It might actually just be 250 glimmer (or the helmets have a lower price). e: or maybe you'll have a reason for getting them, stats might be level 8/10-ish? Just with no perks.

Fuligin posted:Has Bungie revealed what Vanguard is yet? I'm holding out hope for Firefight 2.0. The general idea right now is that the Vanguard option is to launch random strikes at specific difficulty levels, because of datamined activities. "Vanguard Eagle - Launches a random strike at level 18" Viper 20, Wolf 22, Tiger 24.

BastardySkull posted:This is not something we have any idea about other than "guys it's really hard we got some nerds to try it and they thought it was hard and took 16 hours!" so we'll see. Mission < Strike < Hard Strike < Nightfall (Daily) < Nightfall (Weekly) < Raid < Hard Raid. Dunno about you, but I sure hope there's a difficulty and overall challenge increase between the first and the last. Especially since Raids as described by Bungie sound just like typical MMORPG raids, which involve bashing your head against gimmick encounters until you figure them out. At least until people figure out the whole thing and strategies get posted online. Then it'll be easier to figure out who is just a bad fucker who ruined your dreams of acquiring this achievement.

Is anyone having issues preloading Destiny PS4 via the web interface? The PS4 is on stand-by, but it says Destiny & the vanguard are still waiting in the queue. Since I'm a few hundred kilometres away and returning on launch day, I'd hoped to start the download remotely
