More and more, when it comes to the gameplay, what I find myself doing is comparing this game to Halo 1. Halo 1 had an incredible amount of repetition, just like Destiny. But what's making me come back is the excellent base gameplay.

And the PvP. I played halo1 PC PvP for soooo long.

How can you not get the rifle? The chick gives it to you in a cutscene at the end cinematic

May want to check your inventory

Lol I'm saying there was no end cinematic. Do I have to go back to that story planet/moon? UI didn't indicate it. Maybe something just didn't trigger. Really not interested in fighting those three identical bosses in a row again...

Oh we beat the bastard. But it took a long ass time because we were level 16 and it was only us two.

I did that at level 18 with two other 20's and I died so quickly. Two of his machine gun shots would down me. Went back at 20 and the difference in survivability was insane.

Me of course. I went from level 24 to 25 just by upgrading the defense of my legendary chest armor.

Reddit says this is a primary o_O

Welp I beat it.

Ending is hilariously bad. "Thanks for saving the world I guess. Have a gun. Buy the DLC coming soon. :^)"

Still it's a pretty good game that I still see myself playing mainly for the PVP. I actually really enjoy multiplayer more than actual missions.
 
Lol I got neither of those things when I killed the Heart (I'm still rolling my eyes so hard at "Heart of Darkness"). I went to the speaker and he gave me one mote of light.

I did the "go to orbit" thing instead of wait for the clock to tick down. Fuck everything twice if that matters. This game is dumb.


Sounds like you left before the mission was complete.

Welp I beat it.

This is why I am now a level 17 and I havent yet gotten past the first introductory mission on the moon. I'm going to end up very overleveled for most of the game, which is fine by me.

The worst part is they couldn't even bother to give you a useful legendary for beating the game.
 
How do you get there from patrol spawn?

It is the spawn. Just go to the bottom of the hill you start at. By the way there are 2 more caves on the way down there which may contain loot and weren't covered in the video. One is about halfway down directly in front of you but behind the big rock, the other is halfway down by the left edge from spawn.

Just straight ahead from where they spawn you. It's a pretty large crater that's difficult to miss.
Thanks gents

From that thread

exotics are damn cool in this game.
Wait what? Turn anything off??? Like.. What specifically?

Fucking lol. The thing always says "mission incomplete" if you're not done and you try to go to orbit. Didn't say anything so I figured it was fine. No other mission ever once has anything at all ever happen after the end-of-mission clock starts. Bungie are clowns.

I love this game. Don't understand the hate. It gets shitted on because it's repetitive, but other traditional MMOs get a free pass from this? Why? Atleast you can choose to play it differently since it's an fps.

PVP is great too. Playing Control is my new addiction. <3

edit: Also, is the hand cannons viable in PvP? I use them in PvE, but have a Shingen-E in PvP.

have you hit level 20 yet? because you may not be able to understand just how repetitive this game is until you get to the end.

I'm level 20. here's what I can do:

A) run the same strike missions over and over and over and over, slowly getting better gear so that I can run the same strike missions, perhaps with a higher level modifier, over and over and over

B) PVP in the crucible

PVP can be fun, sure, but cmon. The game has great gameplay fundamentals but as a game parading as an MMO, and as a game without a real story or single player experience like you'd expect from a typical action game, the lack of content and lack of scope and lack of substance is really extreme, especially when contrasted against the high expectations they set with their bullshit prior to the game's release.

I really think we should stop calling that "the ending"

We're getting story missions from the Reef in two weeks...this isn't a finite game.

I bet there's 3 months worth of content on the disk that they are holding back. Full areas are locked in Russia and Mars.

For all of its flaws I haven't been this addicted to a video game in years. Basically quit gaming for a long time now and just played sports games n that's it. This is the first non sport game I have played in a while.

how is that not the ending?

dlc doesn't fucking count lol. that's a horrible defense.

you can bet whatever you want, but until they officially say 'we have more story content that continues the story' then the ending is what it is.

Okay I'm almost done with the Moon and the game is... really dreadfully boring. At this point I'm just playing it just because I paid $60 for it.

Damn, Bungie really dropped the ball on this one. How did this happen?

Level 25 Titan here. Anyone from EU feel like hitting the nighfall strike tomorrow evening? Got to get that exotic gear (since Xur left...), so I can get on that vault ;)
EDIT: If you're interested, msg me (PS4, nick: The_Mockerre)

The story missions in two weeks are not DLC, they are following the traditional MMO structure by releasing content as weeks go by to increase longevity. It really isn't a hard concept to grasp. Do you think people "beat" World of Warcraft? The story is ongoing.

Just got a triple kill with the blade - felt soooo satisfying. The blade subclass has actually saved the hunter for me. I was starting to regret the class.

I have never noticed that all week, thought it just upgraded defence stat as my other stats never seem to move.
It's only with the Legendary and Exotic gear that the stats get a boost, but they do. Easiest way to tell is to look at your Light meter before and after upgrading.
