So another late one last night on Destiny, @Sheikah and I were playing a bit of 3 Vs 3 for a good while, we were dominating too until about just before 3am I think, it was in the last hour that we kept getting paired against teams of unsporting 'hardcore' players who well and truly rinsed us. :p

 

It wouldn't have been too bad but each time we seemed to get paired up with a third player who did next to nothing, getting killed the most but would then end up getting the best rewards at the results screen while we both received nothing. :blank:

 

Honestly we had to laugh about it as there's not much else you can do... ::shrug:

 

Was still untold amounts of fun though and I'll definitely be online again today but later on in the evening again. : peace:

Sorry dude! Will be online later today. : peace:

 

love you.

 

:p

 

I'm not sure when I'll be online next. I've played a bit this morning with @Cookyman. Had a great laugh. I think I was in Orbit and just browsing a few things (checking my weapons out) and heard this voice coming from the telly. "Morning, Jim." My PS4...it's become aware! A sentient being. Got massively confused for a moment before I then had to scramble across the living room looking for the mic.

 

The Moon. Fuuuuuuark. So pretty.

Probably was using a fully charged fusion rifle or had his special.

 

My nephew just got an exotic weapon. Jammy git.

They need to sort out a map selection for multiplayer. I'm sick to death of playing on the moon map!

 

Skirmish is a really good mode (you can revive people too) and I didn't come across the large levels once. It's one or them icons down the left side of the map screen.

Who cares if it's 30 FPS? That's a weird reason to mark it down.

 

Sounding like a broken record now Choze. You didn't get the game so no idea how you can critique it, especially since the beta was such a small part of the game.

Doesn't stand out on a technical level is a joke if you ask me, it looks amazing.

 

I don't think 60 FPS would suit this game. It's clearly meant to be a cinematic experience, which 30 FPS gives you. As smooth as 60 FPS is, it has that cheap 90's BBC drama feel to it.

This whole review situation is weird. It almost seems a bit Zombi U for my liking, some pretty naff reviews (Metacritic is at 75 but what you might consider the 'big' reviews, Giant Bomb, Gamespot etc have it very low, while most of the top end reviews are from sites I've never heard of)...yet you come on here and people are loving it! I remember we had quite a good community vibe for Zombi U on here, all really enjoying it despite the critical mauling it got.

 

I've not played the full game yet, much like @liger05 the Beta put me off it as 'not my sort of game' and ironically all the stuff you chaps have been saying have solidified that for me, mainly I just don't have the time for Destiny! V jealous of you guys that do and can continue to play together and build up an N-E community. I've still got endless games of Titanfall I've promised my Xbox One chums to get through let alone embarking on this too, but I haven't got any where near enough time to make this a worthwhile purchase...yet.

 

I do really hope the sales figures are good though, I think another new IP selling well (Watch_Dogs, TitanFall from vague figures we've seen) will continue to encourage new games and franchises to populate our next gen consoles. I'm all for Uncharted 4 and Halo 5, but Destiny, Watch_Dogs and TitanFall can hopefully breathe new life and excitement into our gaming worlds. Although they said £500 mill had been sold to retailers, I'm worried there is no mention from Activision yet as they are usually the first to trumpet huge sales.

 

In the mean time, really enjoying all your guys chat and videos/screens of the game so far :)

I kind of understand why reviewers were held back, because the game is kind of an unfinished thing. Raids and more strikes are on the way, and we haven't had anything in space or with the Traveler. The ending literally says

So it's tied for the title of worst game you own, then.

 

I made the mistake of forgetting I owned Assassin's Creed 3 as I've let a friend borrow it, I thought I traded it in. So AC3 is the worst game I own.

Then The Last of Us, then Destiny, just.

 

I don't think The Last of Us is a bad game, it's good, but very overrated.

Had a good session earlier. Started on my own doing the moon, then had a friend join me halfway on a public mission. They stayed and helped me do more moon missions, had a laugh. Got myself up to level 12, working on the next levels. And got some great equipment at present, no idea when that will be obselite

I had more fun with this tonight, after I asked some random person who appeared to be playing the same mission as me to join me. The endless firefights aren't nearly as overbearing when you're playing with someone else.

Sorry for not joining you last night @Sheikah. I was in the middle on a level 24 strike and then was just doing a little bit of farming before heading off to bed. You guys play at some weird times! You're like the N-E Destiny nightshift team.

 

I got around 6 purples yesterday and not one of them turned into a legendary item. The drop rates are starting to do my head in. If it's a purple then it should be a freaking purple item!

 

It also annoys me how random the items are for end quest rewards and end crucible rewards. Surely the top player should get something? Just like you should get something for defeating a boss on a level 24 strike! Crazy. :mad:

I quite like that, creates an incentive for people like me who are unlikely to top the leaderboards to play.

 

I enjoyed yesterday. I have reached level 20. I also think me and @kav82 have now finished all the story missions but im unsure.

 

Apart from the odd strike missions and the bountys what else is there to do?

There's nothing wrong with dishing out items for other players randomly but I feel if you top your team it should be a sure thing that you get at least something.

 

If you're just playing for the story then I guess you're done. If you want to do the better strikes and raid mode though you need to level you're character up past the 20 mark. Raid mode arrives tomorrow but I think you need to be 26 to play it. Basically now it's all about the loot system for you.

 

I maxed my cash out yesterday. I didn't even know you could do that. Problem is that there's sod all to buy, so I'm just sitting here with the moolah and all the cash that drops in quests are going to waste.

 

EDIT: Never mind. I've just read about an effective way to use my cash.

Superior frame rate wouldn't suit it??? How on earth would a better gaming experience not suit a game?

 

I've never heard such rubbish in my life.

 

The standard of a smooth running shooter is 60FPS. In fact it's the target that developers ideally look to hit.

 

This was one of the few games that I actually would have considered buying another console for, however, after reading some reviews and speaking to @kav82, there's no way I would spend that kind of cash to play this.

Destiny is UK's biggest ever new IP launch, beating Watch Dogs. Sells 46% on PS4, 36% Xbox One, 14% on Xbox 360, 4% on PS3.

 

Expected and well deserved IMO. The game is like digital crack. I'm sitting at work here itching for my next fix. :)
