Daft

Yeah, I was hoping it was at Amazon because I reckon they'd push down the price a little. I figured if I didn't get it, not having those class items and emotes would nag at me. Like the Blacksmith shader...that I have...and never use. I'm so weak willed.

Yep. Three exotic class items, three shaders and three emotes. I'm literally only buying it because I'm hyped and I have the moneyz. It's fucking stupid otherwise. I don't even wear my Hunter class item. I wear the first one you get which you basically can't see. Really not a fan of cloaks...well, I'm not a fan of the hood being up. You should have an option to wear them lowered.

@Eddage I might be around for Trials if you have no find another couple people. But I'll be playing on my Hunter. Who only has Gun Slinger levelled. I caved and bought the collectors edition of Taken King.

Yeah, went for it. Judge away.

New Gods would be SO GOOD. Would love to see the Fourth World characters appear in other films. Orion in wonder Woman. Maybe Steppenwolf appearing in Superman.

I just don't think it would work in live action. The Crisis events were a necessity of the comicbook medium. Just seems kind of dumb in live action. Not to mention they're kind of shit in the comics, too. Also, I really don't want the films slavishly leading up to anything. I would rather they be their own story for the most part, self contained arcs of two or three films preferably.

Level 34 GET!!

I'm still playing it regularly. Usually once during the week night and on the weekend. The game is bonkers huge.

Got to remember to pick it up when I get home later. Thanks for the heads up!

They're just annualised releases. No different from FIFA. I don't think it's a bad idea for that kind of game, tbh.

I texted everyone who didn't have one as soon as I found out. @Ganepark32 As one who also prefers Heavy Machine Guns, Gjallahorn is on another level.

I wonder how Fallout coming out the same day as Tomb Raider will impact sales.

You're through the worst of it now. Push on through, there are only gainz beyond.

Yeah, you guys are right. It's weird because bench was the only one I kept 5x5 up. Think I've broken through now. I do like 5x5 for it but i'm going to be doing drop sets now. On squats I've dropped the weight (partly because of the switch to high bar from) in favour of higher reps, so I do 4 sets of 10 reps at 72.5kg. Followed by 3 sets of 10 reps front squat with 60kg. Got some advice of someone else in the gym earlier this week. He had such a bodacious body I was a little in awe, kind of wanted to squeeze his man-chest but I resisted and asked him if he had any advice. He was super helpful and said it should be less about upping the weight and really about maintaining the tension; resist the urge to just go heavier and make sure you're really getting everything out of the current weight. Basically, slow down - negatives seemed a big thing - and when you're doing reps do it as if you're massaging the muscle. Yeah, sounds a little creepy. And if he hadn't the body to back it up I would have assumed it was a weird come on. But he did have a smashing bod and sadly he wasn't coming onto me. But yeah, what was I talking about... I'm just trying to slow myself down in the gym when I do reps. Less thrusting and more holds and maintaining tension.

Watch Dogs is dog poo.

I basically wasn't pushing myself, he said it was likely a mental thing and that I could easily do a set on 100 and once I did that dropping down to 95 would feel easy by comparison. I only dropped 10kg on the warm up set - from 60kg to 50kg. Basically, magic happened. But actually, I could probably have hit 100kg a couple weeks ago (maybe) but my 5x5 arrangement was limiting me and making me think that I couldn't get above a constant weight. I dunno, so I had the energy to lift 100 kg on my first couple sets and then that lifting heavier made lifting lighter easier? I'm going to go with magic.

So, I've been struggling with my bench press. Hit 95kg, dropped to 90kg. Didn't know what was going on or how to push on through. My biggest fear was realised, I'd hit a plateaux. Then earlier this week, some big dude in the gym who's spotting me gives me a bit of advice. HOLY FUCK. I warm up on 50kg. Then I go right up to 100kg and do a set of five reps. It was fucking easy. I was aiming to do two reps, because that what I thought the guys said to do (and shit, 100kg is A LOT mentally) but before I knew it I'd pushed out four easily reps and then I'd done another to finish a set of five. So I figure he said do two sets of 100kg instead of two reps. I do another set of five reps at 100kg. Not as easy, but still pushed them out with little problem. Really good form, too. Not dropping the bar. Still room to tighten it up if i'm being a total buzzkill but still some of my best form. I then drop the weight to 95kg, so this was still my personal best before today – not completely true, my 1 max rep personal best had been 100kg (FUCKINGLOLATONEREP) – and pump out another two sets. The first one I had an overly hands-on spotter (dude had a great bod but obviously had shitty form from the way he freaked when the bar touched my chest, in a controlled manner I'll add), which was a little annoying but he was better after I told him to back the fuck up on the second set. Then I finished a set on 90kg. BOOM. Finally, I'd crept into the 100 club ages ago on poor form but now I can confidently say I fucking belong there like a BEAST. Dis is me rite nao... Today, I was the biggest man in the gym.

Since I don't think it's been posted, here's a run down of the latest GI info. "Strikes now focus more on replay-ability, switching up the enemy compositions and even races strike to strike" The one I'm most looking forward to.

Ban smoking, just legalise and regulate marijuana.

Don't think I've ever bothered to solo a Nightfall. That being one of the reasons why. That fucking sucks dude.

Yeah, saving the story for the Nolan north experience. And yep, those juice XP rewards are waiting to speed-level my Void Hunter. Mwahahahaha!!! My Warlock has 24 days 6 hours and 59 minutes of playtime on him (compared to 2d 4h 10m on my Titan and now 10h 28m on my new Hunter). My Triumphs progress is forever safe with him. He'll always be my main. My Dead Orbit Exo Warlock.

I only had time for the Daily Mission yesterday. As a lvl 28, I didn't think I could rush through the lvl 30 difficulty so I did the lvl 26 one. BOOM, got rewarded with a Legendary chest piece which I Etheric Lit upped and I'm now lvl 31. Just need either a Legendary helmet - preferable - or Legendary boots to hit lvl 34. ...Then I need to start levelling Blade Dancer. I've got almost all the story missions to do so I'm going to go through those when 2.0 is released.

Funny you should say that, I just gave my spare Gjallarhorn to my Hunter. ...But no, I'm still a lowly lvl 28. Just need a couple Legendary chest pieces to Etheric Light up and I'll be 34. Just realised my new Hunter is going to hit lvl 34 before my Week One Titan will. Awks.

Let me back in plz...
