Saw "Bhulk, Disciple of Gains" earlier. Made me chuckle.

That asymmetry on the Director, where there clearly should be something on the left in the mirrored position to the HELM… that has to me intentional. What will show up there in the near to distant future?

There have been a lot of hints in the seasonal story we might be going back to Titan soon. I'd expect a few vaulted planets to pop up this year.

If they reintroduce Savathun's Song, I sure hope they don't rework it like they did Lake of Shadows and Arms Dealer.

It's been long speculated that there's a Leviathan on Titan (the thing that was guarding the worm gods on Fundament) so I expect that to tie into the endgame.

I'm pretty sure the Traveler and Witness are basicaly gonna kill each other off, anything else would be considered an anticlimax. Especially if it turns out that the Witness is merely the final boss of the Final Shape campaign, now that would be very much "that's it?". And I don't think Bungie wants to make raid bosses story-relevant anymore, given that only a small part of the players base plays them.

In the wake of Lance Reddick's death I happened upon this trailer. Say what you will about D2 vanilla, but this trailer is just amazing:

Apparently Bungie saw it fit to release an out-of-schedule update regarding upcoming future changes to the gameplay. www.bungie.net/7/en/News/article/reflecting-on-lightfallI do spy some interesting stuff in there. With some luck, it seems competing with your strike teammates for bounties might be a thing of the past soon. They are also making Vex Strikeforce a source of new exotics. And focused exotic could be useful too. Of course, this is Bungie, so it's also a matter of seeing how exactly the monkey paw will screw us. For one, I would like some way to spend enhancement prisms and ascendant shards without having to upgrade a random armor piece. If not that, at least let me reset ranks without claiming those rewards.

Been a while since I tried 6s but IB this weekend has convinced me that 6v6 Crucible is probably the worst MP component of any game ever developed. It has it all - bad balance, bad maps, bad matchmaking, bad spawns, bad hit deteciton. There's like... nothing good. And then this mode makes it all worse because it snowballs by giving extra super energy to the team that is winning, constnantly. There's been matches where I've had the enemy team get 10 supers before anyone on my team gets even one.

Oh, I can't even remember the last time I played IB.
I only very occasionally play standard crucible, but now that I'm gonna switch back to the laptop, I doubt I'll even try that - framerate really takes a beating in PvP if you don't have a halfway decent CPU.

I loss farmed my way to that chainmail shader the other season. That's the last time I played.
PvP in this should be so, so much more than the absolute pile of shit it actually is. The fact that a lot of big PvE nerds often have come from PvP imbalances makes the whole thing all the more insulting.

It's kind of embarrassing for them IMO, given their past and pedigree with matchmaking. I don't think another team could make something this much of a mess unless they put dedicated effort into doing so.

I sometimes have to remind myself that these people are responsible for Halo. It's night and day and I still struggle to understand quite how we've ended up where we are with the pile of dog droppings PvP is here.

Trying to decide if I want to suffer through doing solo spire of the watcher for the last guardian rank 11 triumph...

I'm still on rank 6 Just can't be arsed with it this season and still need to hit 1800, which appeals about as much as having Dominic Raab as a boss.

Thanks to legend campaign I think I hit 1800 after about a week
Probably going to run my last 2 GMs this weekend, saved the probably most annoying two for last (Hypernet Current and Mars Battleground).

I didn't find solo Spire too much of a pain in the arse to actually complete. The flawless however almost broke me. One mistake in the end boss room and you are just absolute toast.
I also may have jumped down into a death pit by accident at least twice.
Few GM's off rank 11 but it's never really been something I've chased considering it all goes away at the end of the season. An emblem or something token like that probably would have made it a more interesting chase.

I’ve not finished the campaign. Finally dropped or didn’t to normal as I was having no fun fighting wave after wave of infinite respawns and the dullest fights in Destiny. Now I can just plow through the rest of the ‘story’, get strand and get on with the good stuff - Gambit and seasonal

I don't expect it to be *hard* per se, I just tried it once during last season when we had the solo operative mod and after 2 DPS phases on the harpy I got bored and turned the game off

It's a slog, there's no denying that. The run where I did the flawless I didn't get one single brick of heavy drop on that roof and the Harpy practically died of entropy in the end. It became quite a dull challenge in the end as the only place I was dying was the last boss and it took like an hour to even get there and try.

Well, I did solo spire. Boring AF. Took like 7-8 phases on the harpy and 5 on the wyvern.
Would have shaved a lot off if we still had solo op.

I thought he looked more like Ackbar.
Kinda hyped about the Guardian Games actually. I'm sure Titans won't win, though.

Got Rank 11 done earlier this week too. Got Dream Warrior as well which I'm happy about. Never been fortunate enough to have a group consistent enough to work on a Raid title until now.
