Destiny 2

Micaelis

Just curious how many people are hitting the Destiny 2 grind? Personally loving the new look and the way they've changed the live events to be more noticeable.

Feel free to talk about it and share tags for teaming up!

Mine is vSINvVanity on PS4. Send me an invite if you play and want to team up sometime!

Torinn

Hey! Get back to Dawnlording!

Micaelis

Nope, Dawnlord curse continues. Next time make sure the terms start isn't Destiny 2 release date >:(.

Been playing it on PS4, it's a lot of fun.

Micaelis

You still haven't added me, even though you were supposed to like 12 years ago.

Solnir

Been thinking about picking it up for computer, but dunno if I'm ready for the grind again.

Armali

I play on xbone. Hate what they did to Crucible, but I was a Y1 crucible player so I don't know if I'll ever get that back.

Khel

Love the game so far, digging the progression now- not gotten into raiding or crucible just yet.

Micaelis

I never really enjoyed the Crucible myself. Did it to the necessary point for certain engrams and whatnot but was just to complete the given task. Just got to around 240 Light last night so hoping to do Nightfall and whatnot soon, if I can find a team. Really annoys me that there's still not a matchmaking function for Nightfall/Raids and it outright requires the use of third-party websites to find teams if you don't have a full sixer available.

From what I played, seems like Destiny 2's crucible is all about team fire instead of solo-oriented play. Better in some ways, worse in others.

The PC port will be where the real shit happens, I think. The beta played superbly well on keyboard+mouse and performance wise.

It seemed that way, yes, and from what I can see it looks like they're doubling down on the Trials of Osiris style of PvP which outright requires team building and Light level to compete. Fun if you're running around with the same core group of people but think it leaves a lot of the playerbase out. 

Armali

Well, can't be hard to find a crew! I mean, you have a big pool of Achaeans to choose from right here!

Torinn

No.  No more Destiny 2 nobody plays it.  Pls come back.

Loving It! Glad Bungie fixed a few things we asked for. If only they got the token system right--loot drops feel incredibly rare in raid. Also sadly I don't have a real urge to run strikes this time around, beyond the Nightfall (super easy this week).

My clan and I are speed running Leviathan tonight so we will see what drops! But I'm always down to run public events or crucible if you catch me on. Or if you're looking for an active clan, let me know!

At least the collection grows.

Any other guardians on Xbox? @Regi abandoned me

Regi

Oi abandoned is a strong word. I'll be back when there's content to be had, just burned it out for now lol.

My sentiments exactly. I LOVE what they did with Destiny 2--this is what 1 should have been. But for all the good they brought from Age of Iron, that has been left behind with this new game.

Once you hit lvl cap, there is not much to do other than log in just to practice shooting or level alts. I'm up to my eyes in exotics I won't use, gun perks are static, and raid/PvP armor have no perks, so it's hard to justify playing until Osirus.

I'm hoping in the future they add in Destiny 1 raids and strikes as "memories", make prestige armour and weapons at least 5 levels above usual cap, and add more crucible match types.

Yo. One x AM is my gt

@Regi @Xias

Whatever happened to play for fun?

Personally, I feel like there's so much more I haven't done, a lot of it probably because all the people I was going to play with it got bored. I don't have a set of raid guns or full raid gear. I'm not even 300 yet (stupid mark, where are you). I haven't done Trials once, and I'd love to get my hands on some of the armor and the Prosecutor. I've never done any of the Prestige stuff, the auras look super cool. There's so many different kinds of gun archetypes that it's fun coming up with builds to bring into Crucible (double auto rifle + Actium is my jam right now!) and seeing how they do. Trying out the high impact scouts, the Halfdan, the auto sidearms or the semiauto sidearms -- all of that's good fun!

Don't get me wrong--I still enjoy hopping on when friends want to just mess around. But from a personal goal standpoint, I've exhausted all my options so far. There isn't a real collection system yet in D2 so there is no point in collecting ships, sparrows, ghosts, etc. Weapon wise, the only thing I'd reeeeeeally want is the raid rocket launcher.

It looks like a lot of neat things and changes are on the horizon so I'm sure I'll be playing again soon!

Armali

I've been collecting one of everything. You never know when something will become meta in Crucible! (and that's the only place where things matter!)

Telendrieth

One of the things I missed about destiny was just roaming around and killing stuff. The gun play and the environments alone are enough for me to just chill in social for longer than should be allowed. I'm loving 2 so far.

Xias

I wish the farm was more of a main stay. I was so excited unlocking it and now....it has become a relic 

Regi

@Armali If you had started at the exact same time as me and played through with me I think you'd be in the exact same position right now. I did play for fun:

@Armali Lol your playtime was much higher than mine already I stand corrected
