Shadowkeep's been delayed to 1st October (from 17th September), which actually benefits me because I'm on holiday during the original release date.

Also Moments of Triumph have been extended to 17th September. And the Shadowkeep raid is called "Garden of Salvation".

imagine actually taking your time with the solstice armour and not just grinding it all out in 3 days like me

I've been taking my time a bit. But I want that MMXIX title. Need to get Zero Hour done. And the 3 raids. And the Solstice armor. Got some work ahead of me for sure.

Now that Bungie nope'd out from Activision, I am thinking of buying it. I am still salty that they banned me from b.net just because I didn't buy their game tho and they still didn't reverse that rule.

finally finished the solstice armour on all three characters and i want to die

A Cheese Potato · August 19, 2019, 09:39:02 PM

why would you do all that just for a lame sparrow

big dog · August 20, 2019, 03:25:40 AM

sunk costs

although this really highlighted how the rest of the game isn't so grindy, i've started two new characters in the past month or so and it really didn't take that much time to get them both to max level while still having stuff to do with them

A Cheese Potato · August 20, 2019, 06:56:46 AM

Fair enough

I mean I was willing to do all 3 characters the first solstice, since it was a unique exotic ship. (Until they reskinned it for dawning)
But this time it was just a plain legendary sparrow from d1, and on top of that they removed the cool void energy ball it had on the front, and the trail is the default one instead of purple

big dog · August 20, 2019, 07:07:09 AM

ya the sparrow isn't great but i can now flex on people and say i played a lot of destiny or something

Got both games for less than £9 each.
Probably still paid too much. Will post my thoughts once I'm done with them.

Is a 100% solo play through of the campaign realistic or you have to play with another person?

You can do the main story solo, really it's just raids and some side or exotic quests that need to be done as a fireteam.

So I have a file on Destiny 2 already but don't own the game. How will the F2P version affect that?

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · August 21, 2019, 04:21:01 AM

So you used to view your Grimoire on b.net but they then took it all out? WTF, why?!

I posted a website earlier on with all the Grimoire cards on, but also in D2 the lore is viewable in-game.

But to answer your question - no idea. Are you saying you played it during a free-play day or something and want to carry over that character to the F2P version?

If this is what Destiny 1 actually is like - then its not so bad.

I guess since I'll be playing the free version do I keep my progress from Destiny 1 and 2?

The New Light conversion applies to all accounts (essentially a soft rebranding of the game) so I imagine you would keep your progress.

gambit really needs a mercy rule like crucible

or just remove gambit altogether because it sucks

Well I'll be joining you then I guess. Think we can throw together a full raid team when the time comes?
