    But the more I play the game the more I'm really growing to love it. ****ty story and all.

    Currently a level 19. So almost there. Still waiting on my first legendary or better drop.
    My only real complaints about Destiny are these:

    1) Story is lacking. I know we have those Grimore cards but 90% of people are too lazy to go online and read them. Half the time when I was doing the "story" missions I had no idea why I was doing them. Plus I had no real connection with the characters. I didn't feel like I knew my character or knew anything about the Ghost. Heck I barely knew anything about the Traveler.

    2) 95% of the missions are the same. Defend your ghost from 3 waves of increasingly difficult enemies then end with a mini boss battle. Would love to have some puzzles or something that make you think instead of just shooting everything you see.

    3) Would've loved to see a bit more depth when it comes to the characters skill trees and skills in general. Not something over the top like Skyrim but something with more depth that allows to me truly create a character that's similar to how I like to play.

    Aside from that I'm very pleased with Destiny I've enjoyed it a lot both PvP and PvE. Core gameplay is fantastic. Movements and gunplay are top notch.

    I'm interested to see what the DLC is like. Will it be PC MMORPG like where it's a legit expansion or will it be like your typical console DLC where they give you a few new missions, new guns, new maps and call it a day? I'm hoping it's the first option. Expand on the story, give us entirely new planets to explore and such.

      Re: Destiny

      I just got my first legendary item--a sniper rifle--so not too exciting. Although I have gotten to level 21 with light, so that's something. Full "Knight" set; it looks pretty badass without shaders. It appears it takes a full legendary set of armors to get to level 25. I can't even imagine what it takes to get to 30.

      Good looking out, Kearnzo. Strike playlists got me at least this far. Anyone looking to run some strikes tomorrow? I did it with randoms tonight, but the results were mixed. On the Phogoth strike, one of our three left, and that strike is such a huge pain even with 3 people. The two of us finished, but holy hell was it a ****storm.

        Re: Destiny

        Just saw this on the Bungie.net forums. Some user came up with a good way to have voice chat in the tower but not have it annoying and obnoxious.

        Bungie.net is the Internet home for Bungie, the developer of Destiny, Halo, Myth, Oni, and Marathon, and the only place with official Bungie info straight from the developers.


        Basically the idea is you have little circles place in certain places in the Tower where, once you step inside and hold square or X, you can hear voice chat. Once you step out the voice chat stops.

          Got my second exotic weapon. Random reward from PvP on our first game.



          You can only equip one exotic weapon at a time, which is sad. Goodbye Gjallarhorn.

            I haven't found a single legendary weapon or item yet Granted I haven't really tried looking, still stuck with rares.

                  The only items I get with plus light are legs and chest pieces. I have probably gotten 6 of each of them, but nothing else. Annoying.

                    But are you doing crucible or vanguard bounties/events. That will get you your legendary item too.

                      So, for finishing Venus (I think) you get a new ship, I picked this one because the other two were purple and blue:

                      Now, I can't see anything but this face:

                      I also put on a shader because it didn't look so bad with what I had on now, looked awful before, then came to the realization that I matched my damn sparrow I got from the golden chests on Earth.

                      Spoiler


                      Got some revenge on some nemeses from the beta:

                        Experience still does matter a little as you still need it for getting the rest of your abilities, but maybe more importantly, leveling your weapons and armor.

                          Tell me about it. I keep getting the same chest and arm piece over and over from drops. I dismantle go back out and the same piece appears as a drop. Constant loop.

                              Shortly after I posted that I got a rare helmet engram. Go to the tower all happy and come out with an uncommon helmet. You could say I was pissed lol

                                Think I may have spotted a potential farming spot on earth. I came across four 20+ dudes all standing together and shooting in to a cave at a never ending stream of fallen spawning inside. I used my sniper scope and zoomed in on the cave and it was raining green orbs (the weapon and gear variety). I know I saw at least one purple orb and maybe a white one before I needed to log for the night. I watched them for around 15 minutes doing that non stop LOL.... They would only stop long enough to run over to the cave and load up on ammo and grab orbs.
