Official Destiny Thread

I've been reading bad reviews on Destiny.

What are you guys experience?I don't want to spend money on a game I'll find disappointing.
If you want a call of duty style campaign dont buy it if you want to grind for loot and play with your buddy forever buy Destiny.The best review I have read is the eurogamer review it basically is how I feel about the game.
 
Destiny is real stingy does not want to drop purple loot but thank god you can buy it if you have enough rep in your faction my buddy got his first purple yesterday the bastard lol.
 
Okay Destiny uses Peer 2 Peer to connect to it's servers, stupidly enough. This means that it is constantly using data when you are playing pve, pvp and strike missions. I found out the hard way by pure desperation I used the PPPOE option on my PS4 to dial into my Afrihost account because I kept getting the "Centipede" error code. It worked flawlessly, so my assumption is that Mweb was blocking p2p on my connection causing the login session to timeout all the time.

As for Data usage it is about 100Mb/s an Hour.

Yeah it uses p2p and it uses about 100 mb an hour my problem is the crucible can use 60 mb a match and I am on 3g.Ghosts did the same it always made me host but I used net limiter to make my upload less and that worked but I am having problems with getting it to work with Destiny.I got my first legendary today jumped from 21 to almost 24.
 
Got my second purple a chest piece .Both I got from doing the queen missions.Seems like they patched out the loot cave saw some guys yesterday shooting into a cave at first I had no idea what they where doing but then I read about the patch.I have been saving up my vanguard marks need a better gun and the cryptarch is not helping me out lol.

The loot cave was still working yesterday, I also stumbled upon it by chance and saw a few guys there shooting at the cave so I joined in and partook in the spoils. I was only lvl 16 though so no legendary gear, but I did get a blue helmet and a whole selection of green armour and weapons. I did, however read an article last night that said Bungie will patch it out.

They patched it the cave is closed for good the best way to get loot is doing the strike playlist you get vanguard marks and loot.Just some advice when you start doing level 24 missions remember to shoot shielded enemies with the appropriate weapon eg.purple shield you use void weapon and so forth.Also ranking up vanguard to rank 3 will allow you to buy some cool stuff you just need the coin though.
 
New patch tuesday fixing loot system maybe now I can get a purple engram to drop in the wild.My buddy got a purple and went to the cryptarch he got a purple chest piece for a differant class,I fed of his tears lol.
 
Just saw Angry Joe's review..... Think I'll wait a bit before getting this..... :eek:


I generally don't like "Angry Joe" reviews but in this case he is spot on.
The game is boring, the story...what story?, its an endless grind and my mates describe it like vanilla D3, you spend hours farming gear only to drop nothing special...lol
 
All you have to do is get to Vanguard rank 2. Then you can buy some decent gear. Also with 13 Strange Coins you can get a Exotic piece of armor from Xur. My Titan is pretty well equipped now.

Need to do the Vault of Glass next.

Yeah people grinding for loot are fools you can buy exotics and legendary's just do the weekly heroic strikes on the various levels and get the strange coins to buy what you want.

Yeah, new month and a new cap reinstated. Now I can play again. Need to get that done as well, though I'm only level 21.
