You made points to counter (all glory to) The Buff Gay Dude. I didn't see sources. I was just curious. If he had provided them, would you have been able to rebut without them? Are they hiding up your sleeves, if he does???
Genuinely curious. He's made some hard points. Nothing was offered in return, other than, "quote your sources."

Let's not assume that Buff Gay Dude has any sources. I said things about auto aim on consoles and bullet magnetism, which you can google yourself. It's a fact of life for console shooters.

So, you can't Google his, if you're so hard up for them?

I've seen his source. It's... impressive...

The real answer is buy a console, build a custom rig with a monitor and have a portable gaming system. Because as stupid as that sounds, a gaming laptop is worse.

Destiny on the PC is not what is important here. Is Bungie on the PC.

I use to be a PC player until 3 or 4 years ago, and I had no idea whatosoever about Bungie. To me they where a unknown.

When I started playing Destiny, I focused on automatic rifles. Because when you play on the PC, a automatic rifle is the best combination of stopping power, mag size and handling. But Bungie have other prototypes.

Getting handcanons the way Bungie understand them is not easy. With a handcanon you have a small mag, slow rate or fire. You have to make sure each shot matter. Is a bit like in a western movie.

Is possible for me, a PC player adicted to automatic rifles, to drop that and use a hand canon? I did and I enjoyed it.

Bungie is one of these companies that have something unique to say about videogames. And not having Bungie games on the PC means PC players did not had this experience available for them.

What's your deal?

The 'bone krew' is the_donald of destiny, they aren't going anywhere so just report & press ignore and move on

Jelly poo you can't be Krew?

At any rate. Though the last few posts in here might've been hard for soft ears, they were helpful and honest. The consoles have played this game for years.
But, what would we know?

The cheating on Destiny is horrendous and the only way to get rid of them is to report them to whatever console overseer you play for. Bungie has done poo poo.

Porting to PC is only going to make this worse for you.

We're just hoping they all go PC and leave us alone for the most part.

We were, then "someone" got bent out of shape about us filling the PC crowd in on just how lovely the PvP got. And apparently how angry we talk.

The carry economy destroyed everything.

You can pay someone to get you to max light, and then start playing. This is the worst, these people are worse then useless in end game pve content because they have no idea what they are doing.

Find/make a PC clan and stick to it. If you try to solo this game, it'll suck rear end.

I helped Minecraft modding start.

Decompiled the game, and wrote documentation for all functions, many people contributed to the effort. When "SDK" kits where created, to make creating mods easier, I helped test them.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dF7ZbtadbjmxAKQa7p5-gQOYVh-bwxGQxX25bMoCFOg/edit#gid=36

The weird thing about Minecraft modding, is that they want to mod for money. Something I have nothing against, but is kind of weird. You must mod because you love modding.

The Minecraft modding community is kind of weird and toxic.

I have the same feeling with streamers making money carrying people. Is not my problem. I am about freedom. But I don't think is a good idea to play a videogame for money, you must play because you have fun. Is something between the streamer and the carried dudes. Not my problem.

But yea, I hope Bungie provide alternatives to that.

Something that Bungie can make, is a version of the raid for 3 persons. We know is possible, because every raid has ben done with 2 and even 1 person, but it could (maybe) create this super-sweaty tier that is not osiris. Perhaps. I am not game dev.

I think the new guided games mechanic is some what of a way to address it. But it could back fire hard with wicked trolling that will turn players away.
