2.0 update/weapon tweaks goes into effect later today. After that, I THINK everything gets locked out. Nightfall, wolf bounties, weekly mission, etc.
Ya got a few hours to get it all finished. |

Destiny 1.5 would be the Destiny that deserved a GotY nod. It really should have launched with this progression and quest system.

For those with a PS3 or Xbox 360 that has a hard drive in the 20GB or less range, Activision is giving away free 3S GB USB hard drives to allow the upcoming expansion pack to be playable.
Only requirement is you have to be an existing and active player in the game to qualify for it. Requests have to be made before Taken King arrives in order to be eligible as well. Quote:

Bungie states they are well aware of the problems the recent 2.0 patch has caused with some of the quick fixes involving items being pushed back to a later release date.

I know it's not a major thing, but the voice change is kinda... jarring. Imagine, say, Batman The Animated Series gets re-aired on Cartoon Network, only they replace Kevin Conroy with Paul Reubens... and he doesn't "Pee Wee" it up or anything; he uses his natural voice, and does a really good job... just sounds NOTHING LIKE *the* Goddamn Batman , in spite of being the same character.
The Crow T. Robot syndrome. It is audibly like someone chipping a section of blue paint off a wall, and just patching it with teal and calling it a day. Yeah, it's still technically "blue", but you could've matched it better with different paint. |

'NolanBot' is whatever. After a while we won't even hear it. Would have been interesting to have certain Ghosts have a difference voice, though. May built bonding or whatever. |

Shit to do is always good. Also, I've missed quite a bit. I haven't been much in the last month. Life majorly got in the way, but that's not a subject for the gaming thread.
Cool they extended the deadline, but I'm still not likely to hit that Skolas challenge in the next two days. |

Anyway, voice casting. I know he's another guy in everything- but Steve Blum would have been a closer shade of blue. Not spot on, but his "generic" anime voice would have sounded a lot more similar, and less like an excited preteen. |

NolanBot is too damn nice. Unless he shows some real emotion in Taken King, or even when I play past missions, worse move Bungie could have made was ditch Pete Dinklidge.

Im with Kalyx in the thought that they should have employed a few different voice actors/actresses and let you choose.

Don't recall them giving the bounty weapons away.
Then again, I got all 5 early. Pocket Infinity was the elusive one of the bunch. |

They aren't giving them away. You only have in the armory what you had already.

I had like, 4 exotic bounties that were just sitting in slots not even started, and when I logged in today, I was able to turn them all in for the weapons.

Yeah, Al's right. If you had any exotic bounties sitting around after 2.0 went live, they're auto completed. Just read up on it. I think it goes for the arena ciphers, too.
You lucked out, dude. The Bad JuJu and Thorn bounties are the toughest of the bunch. |

Yeah they didn't give them away, they just unlocked what you were getting anyway. I did the bounties on those very weapons and I don't feel like you cheated or anything. It was inevitable.

At the chamber in the tower where the class bosses hang out there's these terminals on the wall that have 'blueprints' of all the exotics you got. You can 'resurrect' these will a little money (marks). You can also purchase Year 2 versions of SOME old exotics. This is another workaround for the vault space issue, only that you'll pay money to keep them coming back if you break them down.
Speaking of exotics, the Titan has sweet shit coming for Year 2. You can scope out all the new exotics right now: https://www.bungie.net/en/Armory |

Yeah I hit lvl 40, but it being the 'level cap' is a misnomer.
I'm not strong enough to do a weekly yet. Think this revised light system is gonna be pretty prohibitive. |

So im scratching my head here on a couple things:
1) The armory...when you grab something from it we've already owned, are we getting something that we need to level up again? Or does it come fully upgraded? 2) someone please fucking explain the light system...I get that its an average of your offense/defense, but does that determine how hard/easy things will be, like Strikes? |

Gear raises your light, light is your average attack/defense and space magic power, activities will require you be a certain light level, activities get you stronger gear, gear raises your light...

Yes. Light is sotra like a bar. You need "x" amount to be able to run through it without much difficulty.
Obviously you can be brave and do it with least powerful gear possible, but you'll have a harder time. In short. Start working your way to getting legendary gear all over again, Al. Max out, run the raid on hard (in the future), max out again. |

How big a' motherfuckers are they? Just for my consideration.
Won't be on Destiny for awhile, yet, as the afore mentioned yet unspecified life reasons put a crimp in my plan to buy said expansion. Also, I've been "castle crashing" since finding out the Remastered is free for whoever had it ages ago on last gen consoles. Is it worth jumping all over now, or should I leave it on the back burner for a bit? |

Bungie left behind the bullet sponge type boss battles for enemies with actually interesting patterns and attacks. Also been rocking legendary gear for so long I forgot what it was to run around with very little perks and buffs.

Well, that certainly tips my scales in favor of the "later" category. Control is the best part of PvP to me. I like the controlled chaos aspect of having that many people on a map at one time with split priority between capuring and killing. None of the other game types keep me coming back often, unless bounty.

Is it honestly just locking you out of the control rotation? Not just the daily/weekly stuff, you can't go into the multiplayer menu screen and pick it?
I bought TTK on a whim last night, but if you can't get into control without it that's quite fucked up. Control is THE multiplayer mode as far as I'm concerned. |

The Year 1 playlist has a 6v6 hopper that randomly cycles Clash and Control.
This is an inverse of sorts with how DLC is often handled in that it's often people who got the DLC didn't play them in a public playlist. You have to go to some special DLC Playlist while the general population only got it if purchasers matched up. I almost never played Halo 4 DLC in genpop playlists because of this. |

Got gyp'd today. Had some special items to use for special encounters on the Dreadnaught this morning. Used one this morning, game stopped and disc ejected. Use tried the other a little later, same thing happened.
Sooooooo pissed right now. |

It was pretty bad. Often defended as "well he's meant to be a robot" but nobody goes "Oh that Brent Spiner was just terrible as Data".
He clearly wasn't trying to be robotic either, as the ghost would make quips and show emotional reactions. |
