Best of luck MadDog

I know, it annoyed me at the time. But thinking on it now, i chuckle.

I walked past you twice and tried saying hello, but as you said it was a busy weekend and quite noisy. Still, glad you enjoyed the weekend for a first EGX. I don't think i spent longer than an hour in any one queue at a time, even on Battlefront. I think i timed everything quite well (either that, or i was quite lucky). The shortest queue was on Banjo Kazooie, the seat was empty. But shortest triple-A title i played was Call of Duty, only had 3 people in front when i joined. I managed to play everything i set out to play, if i had done the 4 days i would have used the final day to play the retro and indies as a chill day. Queues were not ridiculous in these areas, so you could easily have played many games in a short space of time.

I've been running the beta for a few weeks, i quite like it.

Well, that was quite an eventful weekend. Full of many great memories and experiences throughout, many great games were played, some games there I was interested in buying as they are out now, but needed a test to see if I’d like them. Some of the games were not labelled clear enough to see where they all were, so many could have been missed without asking around. Thoughts are as follows. Games played on Saturday Uncharted 2 (PS3) I played this for 20 minutes whilst waiting for my slot to arrive for the PlayStation VR. Only other Uncharted game I played was Golden Abyss on the Vita. Looked good, played well and I quite enjoyed it. Wetted my appetite for The Nathan Drake collection coming in less than 2 weeks.

Xur is up. He's in the Tower Hanger, he's got a Lecacy Primary Weapon Engram, Ruin Wings, Sealed Ahamkara Grasps, Light Beyond Nemesis and Hawkmoon (year 2)

Can't do the raid on Friday, out with friends

I've been starting the Infusion process on some of my weapons, i do quite like them. I did get a Legendary Auto-Rifle with 200 attack and a decent impact. I have infused other weapons with better attack with it, now it's up to 275 attack

Oh, i will. Intend to keep it as my Heavy, i have a nice Machine Gun i'm levelling up to match it, so my light doesn't get affected. I've got 2 days off (Thursday + Friday), will be on and off Destiny over this time. If ya see me on and need help with anything (sans the new Raid) or just want to do Patrols/Strikes etc, drop us an invite.

Scored my first Exotic in the form of Truth (Rocket Launcher), got it on a random Strike (non-Heroic). Light now at 274

Anyone fancies spamming Legendary Marks, get onto Zone Control. It's dishing out 10 marks per match. Edit: It's locked to 30. Also, just reached Light 261 and climbing.

Oh, you'll love it. I went for the first time last year, there is so much to see and do.

I'm up for that, more so on the strike front to get more gear.

Phew, story finished and several quests done and reached 249 light. @Map, i got the quest for "Shield Brothers", popped up soon after the story. I'll give it a go with Matchmaking and see how it goes, if it doesn't work then i'll give you a bell. I got a 280 def Ghost after a random quest, chose it over the armour as i believed it was holding my light back. Certainly was, as i went from 229 to 240 light in seconds. Doing some random Patrol missions on the Dreadnaught to finish up a quest.

Right, so where do we find better Ghost skins. I got one with 170 defense, but can't seem to get one with higher. It's one of the many things holding my light level down

Just been checking i've got everything sorted, then nearly had a panic as i thought i lost my hotel details. Been planning my route, will have to get off the train at Marston Green and walk to the hotel, then carry on around to the NEC. Will take about an hour total (including checking in), so should be by the NEC by half 10(ish) Hopefully will run into many of you over the weekend, if you see me feel free to stop me and say hi.

Not close to 280 as of yet, probably more close to 240 (i'm on 232 light). Which i need to be to unlock/give me a better chance at the Heroic Strikes to get better gear.

Yeah, i saw they were advertising the need to book. I don't know if Occulus will need booking, i've seen nothing as of yet

Anyone fancy co-oping the remainder of the TTK story with me this evening?

Ooo, nice. I also put my name down for a potential HTC VR slot on Sunday, have to wait to hear about that one. Probably run into you over the weekend, i'm very much looking forward to going. Apparantly, the Playstation VR slots ran out within an hour.

I loved Starfox 64, great game. I also quite liked Starfox Adventures as well, but not played Command or Assault.

It's a little slower than normal. Just reached level 40 and have a light of 214 (had a random Legendary drop in Crucible, and visited Xur for some guantlets). I do love the bug (is it a bug, i don't know), which allows you to basically replay all the old missions for more XP.

You still get materials, but in greater quantity i've seen. Not sure on the old public events, but the newer ones with the Taken are pretty fun.

That would explain why i can't see them on my screen.

Probably come to think of it. Still, it's bad publicity when they don't bring it South. Yes, they issued some out via email but still.
