Au Revoir Shosanna posted:right in the middle of one of the titan story missions the action just stops while you proceed through a series of Extremely Pretty Hallways and it's honestly one of my favourite moments in the entire game I can't be the only person who wishes there was a fuckload more to do on Titan. An entire Hive-infested Arcology you really only visit in depth once. Airspace posted:Can I just move my Battle.net installation over to where I keep my Steam games, or am I going to have to download 90 gigs on a terrible connection? Nope. Gotta download it again, spaceman. The Steam pre-load is encrypted, and signs point to the structure of the install being just different enough that you'd have to download it all again anyway. Of course you can wait until after the game unlocks on Steam to give it a try.

Ugly In The Morning posted:What do the elemental energy things on some armor pieces do? That wasn’t here the last time I played. Elemental energy on armor ties into the energy cost of each armor mod. The idea is to match a mod that wants Arc energy to a piece of armor that has Arc energy. It's randomly rolled, along with the armor stats, so that you have a "reason" to grind activities to get the armor energy type and stat rolls you want for a given build.

g0del posted:This is my favorite. It's the closest I can get in Destiny to playing a novaguard in Mass Effect multi. Just constantly flying across the map blowing up red bars. It would be easier if holding sprint to shift worked right, though. Shift is a toggle by default, IIRC. Regarding builds...some youtuber guy noted that a top-tree voidlock grenade build with the 2-3 special void grenade mods you get from the artifact is possibly going to be real drat good. Hold Q to drop mini nova bombs, a lot, which disrupt and weaken enemies. I'm really not happy with the fact that respeccing the artifact costs glimmer. It's going to make it rather time-consuming to swap between arc and void builds. The Moon content also seems to be sort of...subtly encouraging Arc builds - a post-campaign quest step asking you to kill things with Arc abilities, Riskrunner plus Crown of Tempests being really goddamn good against Hive, etc.

Control counts for Valor, not Glory. The tooltips on each of the mode nodes tells you which "track" it counts for.

Eej posted:Resilience is almost guaranteed to be a dump stat unless you go all the way on it in which case there are some edge cases where you can survive longer in PvP and PvE. Pretty much this. Build for Mob/Res/Dis/Int and go ham. Mr.Unique-Name posted:I actually have that and thought about using it, but Sweet Business is kind of my comfort pick and I don't entirely "get" Cerberus+1. Do I pretty much only want to use it on focus fire and treat it like a monster shotgun? Are there times it's better to have focus fire off? Cerberus+1 has a neat "hidden" mechanic in that the central AR barrel has no damage dropoff so you can use it to get some very undeserved kills in Crucible. The spread on the shotgun barrels is also useful for tagging people while they're trying be twitchy fucks. Roman posted:i want to use the finisher that gives you an overshield but i gotta mw my class item to do it The overshield allegedly only last for the duration of the cast time so unless you're regularly getting merc'd while mid-cast (hello, Warlocks using Stormtrance) it's not as useful as it sounds.

750 being the new 100 LL (what newbies started with in the Red War during Y2) just means that 950 is the new 200 (or maybe 300). It's kind of mathematically dumb.

Eej posted:No problem. You basically have to figure out what the purpose of a gun is (High Impact Fusion: Hit 5 bolts to kill) and then figure out what perks make it better at that job (Liquid Coils: 4 bolts, High Zoom Scope and Range stat: Longer distance traveled by bolts before they start dropping off in damage, Stability perks: tighten the spread of your bolts so that more of them will hit what you're aiming at long range) then work from there and then check what everyone else is using to see if you have the right idea. tl;dr erentil fr-4 is good and cool, grab it from menage and enjoy

Oxyclean posted:gently caress random rolls, gently caress the "gear chase", just let me make the gear I like good. I don't care if that part takes grinding, just make it so it doesn't feel like a I might be wasting a bunch of investment because I could always get something with a better roll. Hell, I wouldn't mind random rolls if it meant I was just pulling a lever on my gear to re-roll the stat spread. The gear chase should be taking a set you like and working on that, rather then just hoping the next piece of trash that drops is maybe more right. Let me just make the gear I like wearing into gear that's also effective. Armor 2.0 was supposed to reduce the amount of sacrificing one of style or power but when the number of ornaments is so much less than the number of armor pieces that look really drat good on their own but have bad stats...

Probably make each glow its own ornament so if you bought all 3 glows, you'd have a Drained/Renewed/Majestic + Arc/Solar/Void glow plus the non-glow Drained/Renewed/Majestic. One of these days some vendor will drop me a drum-fed spike grenade launcher...

RBX posted:????? All of those supers have a cast animation that locks you in place until it completes, thus making you an easy target for literally anyone to shut down your super before you can even do anything. Warlocks also have on average the lowest damage mitigation while in super. Meanwhile, Arc Titans (especially bottom tree) are practically invulnerable from cast to the point where they run out of targets and Blade Barrage Hunters can instantly delete literally anyone.

The thing that's really turning me off this game is the amount of busywork and reliance on random rolls to keep people on the hamster wheel. Like...the Armor 2.0 system is a step forward, what with the ornaments and customizable perk slots, but it's still too bogged down in RNG to be fun. If you're trying to get good armor, there's just so many layers of RNG! 1. 1 in 8 chance for an engram to be an armor piece 2. 1 in 5 chance to be a specific armor piece type 3. 1 in 3 chance to be a specific element 4. ??? chance to roll high on overall stats 5. 1 in 6 chance to roll a high score in a specific stat And if any of these don't match what you're specifically looking for, the only way to reroll it is to do the activity you got it from and hope you get a better roll. Oh, and we're going to introduce new seasonal slots every season, so you have to restart the gear grind every three months! I'd really like it better if you could work in a directed fashion for a specific thing. We have these Black Armory forges already; why is Bungie not using them to let players choose their build by doing what they enjoy? It would be so much more fun if it worked like this: 1. Visit Ada to get an armor frame. 2. Set the elemental affinity by doing Void/Arc/Solar damage 3. Set the stat score by doing Kinetic damage - the more multikills or precision kills you get during a Forge or something, the better your stat score. Hell, make it so this can be reset a few times to try again. Maybe the Forge you do even sets the pool of default looks. 4. Set the stat distribution by running lots/taking damage without dying/healing friends/punching mans/using grenades/using Super energy By the end of this you have a piece of Legendary armor suited to your specific purposes for the armor. Each season, either do a new full set to get access to the new Seasonal mods or spend some ingame materials and do an activity to align it with the new Seasonal poo poo.

SUNKOS posted:I saw Cammycakes talking about range on handcannons and how he thinks it's useless since the nerf Bungie gave is literally just two or three steps forward to negate, so he thinks handling etc. is much more important now. I think that's one plus to Hunter mobility at least is walking speed going up, so you can walk backwards faster than someone can walk towards you. Not much help if they're sprinting/sliding and have the perks to draw quick and such but it was an interesting take because I was still in the frame of mind of all hand cannons needing a range masterwork to be useful. I never stopped to think about the whole "Just take a couple steps forward instead" angle. "Titans have the weakest melee." Arc titans would like to have a word with you.

SUNKOS posted:I'm not saying the AI is amazing, just that they put more effort into it than most developers do. It's one area of the industry that has unfortunately not really progressed from one generation to another, but for a shooter the AI in Destiny is up there just on account of basic things like enemies taking cover, sometimes running away etc. compared to most games where they literally stand in place and shoot. Doesn't mean that there isn't massive room for improvement in the genre, though. 4A does a good job of NPC AI, too, especially with sapient enemies who'll look for you for a good while before giving up and will even surrender if they're the last enemy left standing.
