On the flip side of that, Bungie sure has gotten a hell of a lot of mileage out of that code. As they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

They just need to update their tickrate to 60 or higher so they have more options for balancing archetypes than nudging TTK one or two frames in either direction.

I think that's a nice addition. Supers shouldn't be a win button, and anything that helps normal players have a chance to avoid or have a fighting chance against them is welcome in my book.

Too bad that hunter looks more awkward to control than blade dancer is.

Dude is spamming the gently caress out of that button and going nowhere.

I've just reduced look sensitivity to 6 having been at 10 since launch.

It took about an hour to get used to but it is like a super power. Head shots have never been so bountiful.

That bubble is a lot bigger than I remember. It looks like there's easily enough room for a full raid party in that thing. I like it.

Also having a laugh of this dude explaining all the visual effects of a bubble taking damage and it cuts to a clip where none of that is shown.

You follow the path

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment

when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.


I'm quietly expecting the deepest secret in the game to be, after years of complex puzzle solving, literally a cameo-style portrait of a bony space dragon wearing a top hat & monocle while holding a cup of tea

The bigger the beard, the more unix in it. And this dude was awesome.

Yea, it look bigger, also the transparency will make easier to see whos inside. Thats a double edge sword for attackers but would favor defenders almost always, I think.

I kind of like what I see. I will make a character of each class, of course, but titan looks pretty solid in the awesome departament.

Sentinel confirmed as most OP subclass. I'm excited to see the new, bigger bubble. And now I'm wondering if all other subclasses also have an alternate mode to their super.

Man now i'm gonna be loving bummed if this isn't the case

LOL if the alternate supers for each class are just the D1-style super tho

Man, I'm so curious to see each subclass side-by-side. It seems like there's a push to make each one a roaming threat vs. like a single titan slam or nova bomb or whatever. A little homogeneity is probably good but I wonder if, yeah, sentinel's just going to end up being the best because it's everything else + titan wall/bubble.

I hope they do because it's something unique like the bubble shield. If most supers are just different colored projectiles it would be really boring, I like how radiance focused on reducing ability cooldowns instead and was fun paired with the claws etc.

It is a get out of jail free card and I have a new guy during a sherpa running Warlock I'll tell him to self res.

What are the odds that they killed it not because people sat on it, but instead to keep people from soloing raids?
