Exotic comes after Legendary.
Exotic is the best and hardest to get?
i actually received one on day 1, the bungie fist, and it disappeared from my inventory a few hours later.
Shingen-C.

Wasn't expecting the story to be so bad, really disappointed given how much I love the Halo series. I'm loving this game and will continue to play it for a long, long time but God damn.
Ugh, someone dropped from the strike yesterday so it was just me and this other guy, canals never came, we were stuck with no ammo with one guy left, it sucked a lot.
Shingen-C or Cydonia AR3. These are the best IMO.

Not that I know of. I was just exaggerating.
Added, Colloquialism
OK so to summarise the advice I've received so far based on the video of me being crap at Crucible:
Did I miss anything?
- Shotgun is no good except at closer ranges, need to use AR or pulse rifle
- Pay more attention to radar
- Keep moving towards capture points where enemies will be
- Learn maps and figure out routes people will take (this will take a while I imagine)
Did I miss anything?
It's lacking the fun co-op feel halo had.
But halo style levels probably wouldn't lend their selves to the repetitiveness of this type of game.

I feel like apologizing to the Call of Duty series for all the times I said their story sucked.
COD single player is like Academy award winning performances compared to this.

Uncommon -> Rare -> Legendary -> Exotic.
Exotic are special or unique items in that you can only have one exotic armour piece and one exotic weapon equipped at a time (a total of two exotic items). So the best gear possible would consist of all legendary with one exotic weapon and one exotic armour piece.
COD games might not have a great story but they at least have one, with a start and an end, a clear goal for the heroes (or one that becomes clear in due time) and actual characters (even if shallow and 2 dimensional). Destiny has like, almost none of that and the characters it does have are barely characters. Dinklebot is the most character and all he does is give half asses info dumps and seems to be figuring out his own story without letting you in on it.

Stick with your teammates.
"Oh wow, mankind went to Venus and terraformed the fuck out of it! We went there built cities and brought... hatchbacks."
This is seriously the most annoying thing to me in the entire game. So much stuff just hasn't been thought through.
Sorry that I couldn't find a better picture.
Well fuck me.
I'm about to go pick this up for PS4. Just joined PSPlus too. After all those mixed reviews I just gotta see it for myself. Thank god for disposable income.
If anyone wants to add me it's TestSubject15. I've never played an MMO or anything (though I've played plenty of FPSes) so this'll all be new to me.

Assuming PlayStation, you'll have to redeem them on a US account on your machine - that's how PSN works. You'll still be able to use them on your EU account as long as the US account is on your console, though.
Good you're finding out now and not when you're buying DLC, though, because that works the same way. Only US DLC will work with a US game.
Adding you now! I won't be on until tonight though.

I would have preferred original made-up planets tbh, good excuses to make all sorts of interesting, crazy environments.
Really depends on your level. I like it best when enemies are 1-2 levels higher. That's challenging without being impossible.
Playing more console FPS is probably sound advice. I watched the video and it looked like you were moving in slow motion. You're going to be at a massive disadvantage playing all these guys that played Halo nonstop for years.

I think there needs to be a nerf to the auto aim. I'm hitting some ridiculous head shots with the sniper rifle.

A lot of people will be getting to the raid this week.
Why did you choose this title?!

Pretty sure that's not correct.
Reputation is tied to the type of class item you have equipped. So wearing a Faction class item converts the Vanguard Reputation you gain from Bounties, Patrol Missions, Strikes & Crucible to that respective Faction Rank.
Marks (Currency) on the other hand are tied to the game modes. The type of class item you wear, be it of Faction or a regular one, does not affect the type of Marks you earn. So for example, you won't earn any Crucible Marks by playing the Vanguard Strike playlist - only Vanguard Marks.
Yup, just check back when his stock refreshes if it's not there now.
...estiny?
I never played the Halo games. I tried, once, but the controls were just ugh. The only console shooter I've gotten on well with before this one was Gears of War.
As for the movement thing... if you sprint, you can't shoot?
Yeah I wish he was here for the rest of the day, I needed 2 more motes for the exotic engram.
Also don't forget to do a Public event each day to get your strange coins ready for next weekend!
Edit: Does gold tier public events not guarantee Strange Coins? Solo'd the tank and got gold but just got an ascendant shard...

Any Xbox one users want to grind either Nexus or try their hand at the weekly?
Gt: ConscienceFalls. Actually, if you have an Xbox just add me in general.
Being stuck at level 20 sucks.

Bloodpact. I got it from one of the Crucible Control matches where I basically had to eat shit and got last place on my team and the opposing team had 5/6 Hunters running Bladedancer and shotguns. I even got a slightly better pulse rifle than the one you get at the end of the game
OH MAAAAAN that's really bad. The only thing I have to worry about is people thinking I was born in 1999. That '99' part doesn't even have any significant meaning to it I just thought saying '99' rolled off the tongue somehow back then
Yeah, that title you quoted the other day about the raid was perfect for OT3. This current title and the original sucks compare to that. Alas, I can't remember what it was.
Speaking of raid here's a copy paste of the post I made on DestinyGAF Canada if anyone is interested:
I think it's fair to say most of us will look forward to step into the Vault of Glass later this week when it opens, I'm looking for 3 more guardians to join us. We're 3 french Canadians (Hunter (26),Warlock(25),Titan(26)). Since we know nothing (pretty much) about the raid we'll step inside with an intent to learn the place so expect to wipe (I don't think we'll be able to clear the 8 boss in one shot, Bungie keep hyping the difficulty.) We're 3 adults pretty relax, raided for years in other game, looking forward to try it in Destiny, if the group mesh well and we wanna make raiding a recurring event we're open for it. Our availability this week is Thursday night, and any time Friday or Saturday
Here's what we need from you if you're interested:
- Mic (I assume voice comms will be needed if it's like any other raids, in any game ever) If your shy or you hate talking at least make sure you listen if calls need to be made.
- At least level 24 since the first difficulty of the raid is aimed toward level 26.
- Willing to have a good time/not rage upon dying
- Can raid in French or English,.raided for years in English in other game and communication was never an issue.
- Can be available for the raid for at least 3 hours, can be for longer if everyone is having a great time while we learn.
Heading to bed (Working the nigh shift) I'll sort through the demands when I wake up if there's any interest. You can get back to me in PM here on GAF or on PSN Nakhar.
Edit: Forgot to say the version, PS4.

If anyone still cares about the story, I saw a pretty interesting theory on reddit.

Use your super charge.
I was referring to the speed at which you aimed and fired. There's not really much you can do about that besides getting used to the game and maybe turning up your sensitivity a bit. Good luck.
