Destiny Thread (Bungie) - 9/9/14

[zero23]

Shareplay bro. I gotta see this.

So I just ran another strike and tried my best to never pick up ammo and it turns out it actually doesn't add to your reserves. It only re-fills the clip but doesnt pull from your reserves from each kill.

One thing I noticed tho is at certain parts of the map my reserves would just randomly get bullets added to it... Im not sure if Im picking up ammo or not but I dont think I am as I was purposely trying to dodge ammo packs the whole map.

One time I meleed an ad and it added like 125 to my reserves and then another time I was just standing there and it added 90.
Do you think it could be a glitch? Maybe the mechanics think I should be out of ammo and just randomly generates it or Im walking over invisible packs.

That's what I encountered too and what made me actually start paying attention to it and testing it while doing my ability kills. I just thought I was picking up random invisible ammo packs. It really tripped me out. I'm curious to see if it's a glitch or not.

That Juju RoF & damage in Crucible though 

I been down with Juju since '14. I remember first hitting VoG up with it and TMT laughing and me and "My Juju" 
Myself and Pulse Rifle Nation welcome all of you to our team finally  

How about when the Bad Juju had only 16 or 18 in the clip?
Be honest Wright, with the perks that gun had many thought it would be a beastly gun but it was TERRIBLE when the game first dropped. It took damn near two reloads to kill a dreg back then.

Oh no doubt compared to it now, it was pure trash

I think since it was one of my first "earned" exotics, it was my baby and I couldn't put it down haha

And the Activision Microtransactions have begun. As One of Biggie's coworkers put it, we bout to throw money at the screen once we see these emotes. If they have a Twerking emote, it's a wrap.

But in return the DLCs that are yet to be announced will be free. I think this is a great trade off.

Edit: this announcement actually was the last big prediction that this one insider posted on Reddit back in July. Everything he stated for TTK has been proven true and this was the last big one for year 2. For Destiny 2 he said Osiris will be the core quest giver/central figure. Zero and Wright probably know because I sent them the copy and paste of the excerpt. Unfortunately, this post is now deleted.

I got God of War, Revenant, and Bittersteel all within 2 days

I already know I'm buying a few emotes because I'm kinda tired of the sprinkler already...

Don't you have some live action Halo web-series inspired fan fiction to write?

DO I NEED TO COMPLETE THE STORY MISSIONS FOR THE DARK BELOW AND HOUSE OF WOLVES BEFORE I CAN DO THE TAKEN KING STORY MISSIONS?

CURRENTLY ON MY ALT AND I DON'T SEE HOW TO DO THE TAKEN KING MISSIONS

Yup

You should have a quest for where you are on the OG story.

On both of mine I had to play and complete The Black Garden story missions again.

MY GOD.

I found the post, it's in the spoiler. It came out July 28.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Hello everyone, I have received some early information on the Taken King and Destiny 2.0. For the sake of confidentiality, I will not release the name or names of anyone that was involved in telling me this information. I can tell you for sure that I have certain connections with people that are in contact with others that are working on the release of The Taken King and other Destiny titles. Although this information is second hand, which I may let you believe or not, it is in very trusted people that i have obtained this knowledge. When it all comes down to it though, this is just speculation and can be changed in the future.

Now for the information:

Bungie is currently working on a Clans 2.0 in which you and your clan mates may be able to give each other buffs in game. These possibly earned through meeting certain clan requirements.
Cayde-6 and Zavala, the hunter and titan vanguard, both play big roles in The Taken King. Not quite sure how they will be incorporated though.
Artifacts are in fact not going to be relics, but something completely different. Quoted, "They are going to be much cooler, giving guardians new effects and new ways to play".
Although this is probably well known, Eris Morn will be a huge part in the story of The Taken King. Main quest giver.
There will be three separate bosses in the Dread naught raid as seen in the trailers. The big guys that stand out.
Something that sounds very exciting, the land tanks from Cabal will be seen much more throughout the quest line. Hinted that they will be usable in the quests!
The Cabal, even though they are being hunted and taken, they are still not going to be an ally in the main quest line. They will in fact turn to shoot at you just as they do in any other patrol or mission.
The new taken abilities of Cabal, Fallen, Vex, and hive are all going to be mirrors of supers or close to them. For Ex. dregs will put up bubble shields just like a defender titan would. They will be used to counter certain supers of guardians.
The Dread naught patrol will be much larger and contain much more then normal patrols. Hiding treasures and secrets that will take months to figure out. A planet in itself, but larger.
Saturn will not be explore-able. As I really hoped it might of been even a little. Like ship exploration of some sort as it is a gas giant.
Bungie is working on a new form of ascending for Year 2 that I couldn't be told too much about. Stated, "It is too complicated to explain, but it will be similar to the current form of ascending that we know already". I assume from what they said it meant that they could not go deeper into detail about it at this time. It will also have a way to "customize" yourself to be different then other guardians. Possibly shaders for guns?
Now for Destiny 2.0, this will be a completely new game. It is titled currently as "Destiny 2 - The Shattered Suns" and is planned for release on September of 2016. You will still be using your current characters. It will focus heavily on Osiris and his endeavors as he is the main quest giver in the game. A new form of enemy is said to be in development, Possibly Ahamkara? Couldn't get a straight answer from anyone on that. Mercury is also supposed to be a big player in "Destiny 2 - The Shattered Suns". The main area in which the guardian will explore. Bungie has also hired on Hollywood writers for the story of this game as well. A new voice for the ghost is also being implemented. Bungie apparently stated that they are not going to continue with DLC's, but instead release free raids, planets, etc. throughout time. They will only be continuing with the main games after TTK and its successor DLCs.
Finally as a bonus, there is not going to be trading implemented into the game ever. Stated,"Activision got sent a letter regarding what not to do on a mmorpg from Blizzard, and trading was on that list". Also that there is no 6th chest in the VoG or has only been known by a small group of people in the studio. It was just a bluff to keep us occupied for The Taken King most likely.

I am welcome to discussion because i'm sure not everyone will believe everything in this post. Like i said, this is second hand information and cannot be fully proven till launch. All this info has been obtained by very trustworthy people though and i have never known any of them to lie. Thank you and stay frosty guardians.

Edit* I have had people message me saying that certain things may or may not be allowed to talk about, but i want everyone to know that this is just complete speculation and I have only received this information based on casual talk while playing Destiny. Nothing I can call a solid answer. So please take everything with a grain of salt and have a great day smile.gif

Edit* The amount of popularity astounds me on this subject! Thanks for all the discussion. As a lot of people have been stating, they think that Activision wouldn't drop the DLCs based on pure revenue loss, which in turn I believe as well, but I think what might be in play after TTK and its successor DLCs, is something like a subscription based game with added free DLCs.

 

[memphissfinest]

I CAN DEF SEE DESTINY BECOMING SUBSCRIPTION BASED. I HONESTLY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY THEY HAVEN'T STARTED THAT ALREADY. SEEMS JUST SNEAKY ENOUGH FOR THEM TO IMPLEMENT

 

[ciscokid]

biggie62 I remember that. Pretty spot on... Thinking of getting bad juju or red death for IB. Leaning toward bad juju since out would be an asset in PvP and pve

 

[blaz3n]

Already posted. NVM.

 

[jumpman247]

I have a sister checkpoint on Kings Fall, I still haven't beat the raid yet

 

[memphissfinest]

DOESN'T SEEM TO BE SO TO FINISH THE STORIES BEFORE TAKEN KING. I WAS LOOKING IN THE WRONG SPOT FOR THE START OF THE TAKEN KING STORY. WELL ON MY WAY NOW.
