*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

oh well just pre ordered the Collector edition for £30 (had vouchers from xmas and credit at game) will sell the codes if they are codes to mate with my vanilla game
 
It does all look very nice, but I still can't help but feel like we've been extensively beta testing and then this is the real release :(

Awesome, so jealous! After reading all this, I think I'm going to delete everything and start again. Every. Thing.

After a year of playing, still no jellyhorn. That thing's destined to elude me forever.

Just wish we had some form of trading and crafting. Would be great to give away all my stuff before wiping everything.

Are there any guns which are / will be no longer available? Might keep those.

I'm planning to delete one of my hunters and make a brand new warlock and go through the brand new story from start to finish.

I still need to do HM raids and a PoE 35, might try get them in this weekend.

Well, there wasn't a single piece of existing gear on the demo machines. Get the impression it's not going to be much use. I suspect a major rebalancing with all new stuff. The rebalancing 2.0 specifics may not be that relevant. All I can say is that pulse rifles are still gonna be good :)

Cheers Drunzer. I still don't have a Fatebringer despite well over 100 kills, same with jellyhorn. Crazy how good those two are avoiding me. Got all the other fancy stuff, a few Last Words, Hawkmoon, Truth, all the exotic bounty guns, Red Death, I can go on and on. Got a few VoCs too.

On an off topic note, I sent out a few friend requests to some of the folks in the Rocket League thread so we should get a few games in soon. I run Forever Gaming and we have about 30 regulars who play all various games and loads who play Destiny, we're aged from 17 to 70, guys and gals, all friendly folks who are not shy from a bit of banter. If any of you guys would like to link up, let me know and I'll send out invites later. Always good to have more folks to play with :)

Fatebringer only drops when playing the vault of glass on Hard Mode and specifically only drops when defeating the templar.

Anybody who starts ahead of the templar (eg at the gorgon chest) nullifies their chance of getting a fatebringer.

Yep, really looking forward to this. Im wondering how they will deal with the levelling, are we going to resume from our current level of 20 and rank up to 40, or are they going to squish the light into it and make us level up from 34? Interesting stuff, Im guessing the latter.

I hope they add another character slot so you can work through from the very beginning with the rejigged missions and voice over, not sure I want to delete a guy just to do that. Speaking of which I've revisited a lot of the old missions this morning a lot of which I'd forgotten about and got all the dead ghosts dotted around. (http://destinyghosthunter.net)

All in all it looks pretty impressive stuff, I've got release week off work too which is nice :]

The game informer article said your character transitioned form the old system to the current one seamlessly, so presumably you need to have your level 34 gear equipped and it then lets you begin at level 34 through some wiazrd or import process.

I dont think I could face that **** again.

I've done it 4 times (had two warlocks and a hunter in vanilla then deleted the second warlock and leveled a titan the first week of the TDB).

Even though you can blitz it in less than 6 hours start to finish and level a character to 20 in just over that, I just....... couldnt, not again.

I have never understood how people could bring themselves to keep deleting and restarting over and over again for the loot drops, those early story missions are just excruciatingly bad.
 
I stopped playing a bit before the first expansion came out so I have a lvl29 hunter but I think I will probably start again when this comes out. Seems like they have redone enough of the start of the game to make it worthwhile.

From all the talk I get the impression they saw a lot of players stop playing after a while and they are targeting those players as well as new ones. All of the sneak peaks have pointed to a realisation that they need to remove the grind as much as possible. I loved the game even though it was horrendously limited as it did so many things well so I can't wait to play a version that doesn't require pointless grinding to level/get weapons.

I've only done it once and I skipped everything I could. For my 2 other characters I did PVP as soon as it was unlocked, all the way to Lv20. One of them doesn't even have Mars/Venus unlocked yet.

Mostly I'm deleting as I have 2 Hunters, and I want to have each class now just to try out, warlocks are also really good class to have and I think I will enjoy them more then my Titan.
 
Does anyone know how the legendary disc edition works? Is all the content on the disc or just the base game and you get download codes for expansions I, II and TTK?
 
I love this game apart from being forced into grinding to get the decent weapons and no dedicated servers. The engine, gameplay and graphics are all fanastic.

Now they are making all my year 1 weapons redundant even though some are being nerfed anyway (black hammer).

It's hard to see reasons to play it anymore. I was going to get TTK @ launch but now I'm not so sure. If they added dedicated servers I'd switch to crucible only, without them I think I'm going to say enough is enough. Time to look for my FPS fix elsewhere.

BLOPS 3 anyone? Nazi Zombies is fun

Not sure if anyone knows yet I could see them just packing the Destiny disc with 3 download codes as it is 10x easier for them to produce it that way.
 
Scheduled maintenance again tonight. 4 hour scheduled outage from 4pm to 8pm.

That video persuaded me to place a pre-order. The core of Destiny has always been great, it was just let down by content and thin expansions. For £35 its a bargain for the amount of content.
 
That IGN interview was great. God that new MP mode looks glorious. So hyped for this now. Pre-order in. £38.75 TheGameCollection. Happy with that.

Is it true the suros pack only comes with Game pre order? and not available to others until next year? may be wrong but think Game are advertising that.
Not sure if really a big deal but kinda fancied those 3 weapons,shader etc

In Games small print: "Suros Arsenal Pack can also be attained through gameplay starting on 01.06.16. See www.destinythegame.com for additional details. Subject to availability."

So if you don't mind waiting... :P
