Hero-of-Time Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 I'll give it another go then, but last night I was dying straight away and it felt like my gun was useless. Although I'm pining for Battlefield still so I doubt I'll be playing pvp on this much at all. I think it's just like any competitive game in that it takes a while to settle in to the maps, weapons and how the game plays. Once things start to click then it's a right laugh.
bryanee Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 From 6 until late? There are a lot of us, so we might be able to have people just drop in and out. I'll likely be on from 6 for a couple hours and then again at just before 9 for a couple hours more. Who else is interested and what suits everyone? I'm in. Wooooo.
Daft Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Does anyone know what the deal is with the radar? If you're crouched and not moving, do you not show up? Because I've been doing that.

Seriously, headshots headshots headshots.

I was just asking a lad at work about this. Yeah, I think if your not moving and crouched you can't be seen. I was sitting on one of the objectives in a match yesterday and the opposition just ran straight by me. It could be that I didn't show up, either that or they just didn't see me as a threat.

It may have been something with the connection in all fairness as I have been getting disconnected left, right and centre on this game (no issue at all with any other game, just this one).

Zell Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 You know, at some point yesterday when I had only been playing the game single player, I was starting to question the quality of this game and whether it had failed to live up to the hype. Then S.C.G, Map and I did the Moon Strike mission and all my doubts evaporated. Ending the night with us going to the Crucible as a team of six N-Europers was the cherry on top. I had so much fun last night with all of you guys, thank you very much. I'll hopefully be online tonight at around 9.
Cookyman Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Getting a bit worried if the game is meant to be a bit cack on your own... Yeah and the GIFs looked better! Destiny is mean't to be played with others even if you do play alone you get randoms popping up all over the place - unless your @yesteryeargames who seems to have the online equivalent of leprosy. Look forward to playing as a clan with all you fellow numptys
James Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Is yesteryear having NAT issues, I know that was always a problem with matchmaking on various xbox games....
Jimbob Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 I'm up for some Destiny from 9pm tonight, anyone fancy joining me?
Babooo Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Got to say I'm yet to really start enjoying this that much. Was doing a mission (can't remember what it was called - basically wave after wave of enemies coming at you) I was playing solo. I was crying out for some help - died 3 times and gave up. Aren't there meant to be randoms out there playing along side me?

There are meant to be, but because the game is larger than the beta (which only left you in Russia) i guess they are elsewhere, or in free-roam Earth. I had to do a public match earlier on my own because the random whom followed me decided to wander off.
Deathjam Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Me and my boomstick are recking faces in multiplayer at lv 6. Enjoying this very much!

Babooo Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Ok so I just had a few hours playing this with 2 others (1 friend from work and 1 random) and it was ALOT better than playing solo. Can't emphasize that enough! We completed Devil's Lair which was pretty tough. Wave after wave of enemies and loads of big boss type characters which took an age to take down! Is it me, or is this game pretty repetitive?
drahkon Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Is it me, or is this game pretty repetitive? It's just you :p Nah, playing the missions over and over again by yourself is repetitive, yes. But I've played the strikes/missions/pvp-modes mostly with a mate and it was always different. By the way, sorry @Daft and @Sheikah. Couldn't join you as I was already in a party with my mate Checking my profile on Bungie.net...20 hours with my Titan and almost 4 hours with my Warlock. Reached level 24 just now. My Titan's looking good. : peace: Got these two beauties: My first legendary item My first exotic item! And I found legendary Gauntlets
Magnus Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 I'm MrMcMagnus on the PS4 if anyone wants to play this weekend. I'm a whopping level 4, so I'm really good at the game.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Cracking games with a 6 man N-E group tonight. Lost some and won some. I'm not a fan of the TDM game at all. Some of the maps are far too big for that game type and you end up walking around for ages looking for someone to shoot. At least with the control game type you know where the opposition will be heading for.

Ganepark32 Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Missed the action as I had something that came up that meant I couldn't get online after dinner till half 9 (you did send me an invite earlier, @Sheikah, and apologies for not replying or accepting. Was finishing up a mission then had to head offline to sort dinner) and even then I could only stay on for half an hour. So ended up playing a couple of Control matches with randoms and actually had a lot of fun and was doing pretty well. First match I just got wasted but quickly picked things up and from the second match onwards I was getting kills against clearly more experienced players! And as a result of a couple of matches, I got to level 10! Also managed to finish that Moon mission that others has mentioned. The one with the sword. That was pretty cool but 3 different mini-bosses and no real dodge mechanic, at least on the Titan, meant it felt a bit like a slog having to do the double jump thing then swing the sword to move away from the swarm prince things. Got tomorrow off so after some cleaning, I'll be able to play a bit so gonna make the most of it as I won't be able to touch it again till Sunday night/Monday.
Jimbob Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) Now that was what i call a brilliant session, thanks to @S\.C\.G, i don't think that Strike could have been done. Edited September 12, 2014 by Jimbob
Fierce_LiNk Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Had some great fun tonight with @S\.C\.G. Haha, how fucking loooooong was that Strike mission where we kept dying over and over. Also, can't look at NEUK again without think "fuck". Thanks to @Eenuh for ruining that one for us. :p Seriously enjoyed that. Could have played for another hour or so. Damn work. Won't be able to play again til Monday I reckon as Ine has family over from Belgium. Feelsbadman.
S.C.G Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks for tonight guys, another amazing night starting with decimation which then turned to elation as we were getting slaughtered in PVP but we turned the tide around, then ending with around two hours of story missions with Jimbob and Flink. Dat tank! The big purple eyyyyye! And of course the Captains! Oh my... the Captains! But we persevered, triumphed and conquered! (after dying a lot) Eeet was good! : peace:
bryanee Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Just hit level 20 and got my first piece of light armour. I think I'm going to do a little bit of grinding on the vanguard stuff to get some more before I tackle more of the Mars stuff.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 That Moon map was boring as fuck. Didn't help that half of their team quit. Had an absolute laugh with Blade yesterday. It got to the point where I was actually crying with laughter. We were doing a strike mission with a random guy and came to the final fight of the level. We were stuck in a little room but had to try and make a push out of said room to be able to start attacking the boss. I eventually got out and then Blade went in, guns firing and started chasing the enemies. He kept chasing them only for them to lead him to a doorway where about 7 other enemies spawned right in front of him. At this point he turned around and just started pegging it back screaming. I seen the whole thing and couldn't stop laughing. It was basically this moment right here.
drahkon Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 These are only some of the surprises we have planned for you. Very soon, strange characters will arrive in the Tower with special offerings in hand. Public Events will erupt from the skies over your favorite destinations with greater frequency. And, Bungie will enter the fray with some bounties of our own for you to claim – if you can. bungie.net
