Destiny 2 General

Has anyone from sep7 formed a clan? Was gonna join one for the clan loot and to find some peeps to play with, but I'd prefer to at least join one with people I'm familiar with.

PS4 or Xbox?

There's already a few Xbox players here. Pretty sure prehistoric has a clan on PS4.
I'm in a PS4 clan with some random peeps who are p chill.

Xboner. Sorry should've mentioned that.

I'm in a clan on PS4 but I need to find another. It's full, so 100 people, but no one really talks or does stuff together.

I'm hearing that the new raids sucks ass. Is it true?

people don't like that it's mostly challenge related, rather than boss related

even though they're basically the same thing, one just has 20 seconds of dps on a big blob after you do the team work

Is this game worth it? There's a chance I'll pick it up on PC but I may wait until the price goes down first.

If you liked Destiny 1's gameplay then yes. It's good.

Its not too bad, but easily the worst raid to date. I think it's also the most difficult.

This game does one thing spectacularly, and that is alienating solo players even more than the first

-playing PvP is a team shooting shit fest
-still no access to nightfalls, trials, raid, can't replay story missions without a fireteam (fixed)
-guided games is absolutely useless, unless you don't mind being queued for an hour
-clan benefits are overwhelming, essentially giving free high level gear
-many heroic public events are (almost) impossible to complete or even trigger alone

If you're a solo player you can enjoy playing low level strikes endlessly. Fun.

D1 endgame was never geared towards solo play, though. It's no surprise that this isn't either. As much as I'd love the ability to play the entire game solo and offline, that's just not what Destiny is about.

They've obviously made an effort to introduce matchmaking to endgame activities intended for solo players, through the introduction of guided games, but it's extremely poorly executed.

Solo players are essentially locked out of 90% of the games content

The mission where you go to kill Thumos really reminds me of Truth and Reconciliation, I mean look at the hanger bay

I had the same thought. And some of the deeper areas of Titan infested by the Hive reminded me of a flood infected High Charity, mainly when you're stealing that data core thing

It's almost as if the same devs work on Halo before or something

engrams and factions cap at 265 so you have to do raids and nightfalls to increase your light

Buddy got it for free from some dude who works at GameStop. Knowing him I'll be able to play in about a month.

the arcology reminds me of the spaceship from wall-e

my Rat King bugs when its a 6x

My internet's so bad I gotta raid at a friends house, but I quite enjoyed the leviathan raid

My main issue with it is how long it takes, the fact that you have to repeat everything several times. I don't mind doing the Gauntlet three times over but the doggo room is tedious (I actually found it fun before I realised how much the task needed repeating) and doing the whole flag-door unlocking thing every time you need to access a new room just artificially extends the raid when it's such an easy part of it. If these things were shorter the raid would be much better.

I agree the multiple flag capturing for the doors is annoying, but you can one phase the dogs if you have good player class variety and strong weapons on only a 24 stack buff

Wow, Jono. That really made me think.

I think the strikes in this game aren't as good as the ones in the first game. Having to complete all a planet's missions to build up unlocking a strike felt a lot cooler than "oh here's some strikes go do them or something idk".

Yeah, I like them except the constantly teleporting Fallen guy. But their implementation is kind of abrupt, doesn't really feel connected to anything else

I still have yet to get the Io strike.

Cleared the Leviathan in an hour last night, feels good.

Dogs are still the most bullshit part of the raid, but I'm happy with 4 clears so far.

I think don't think it is as bad as people say it is, its just heavy mechanics and communication. Better then Crota if you ask me.

Thaviks is easily the worst boss fight in the entire series so far.

Worse than that damn Black Spincle boss?

There's so much salt about Nightfall Exodus Crash lol. We got it in two tries. It's not that bad. Worst strike in D2 though. I've still gone all this time without doing Lake of Shadows. It's the only strike I've never played.
