Destiny (Xbox One)
Discussion
I've decided I'll be trading this game in in a couple of weeks, so I won't be using the Expansion Pass I've got. Anybody interested? It's this one:

Great game playing with tankslappa and dalzo, finally completed the weekly heroic strike. Wow that was hard !! But worth it 
Those wizards were insane lol harder than the actual boss, thanks for the game but!Managed to get some exotic body armour, and exotic gauntlets over the weekend. It's a pain that you can only equip one at a time.
The only standard items I still have are the primary weapons. Haven't had a sniff of any legendary engrams for primary weapons.
I notice that everyone now seems to want to farm for engrams at the Skywatch Hive spawn point. Every time I was on that level over the weekend there was a team of players camped out, spawn killing that cave.
Shame. How quickly before this gets changed?
I'm struggling to work out the multiplayer side of things...
So last night I'm on single player, chose a mission (very hard, can't remember the name) where I was suddenly midway through a battle with another 3 or 4 players against some fecking great laser beam breathing monster and got totally whooped and was actually hindering the other players from progressing as I'm only level 8.
Why did I end up mid battle? surely I start the stage as usual at the beginning and meet people along the way who may/may not choose to assist.

It happens. I've been dumped into quite a few Strikes which are already underway. Similarly I've noticed it's getting more common for other players to quit out right at the very start.
Has anyone had a crack at the vault of glass raid yet?

this also happens if you drop out of a level yourself, then go back to it at a later stage during the same session
t. Some new bounties and a new faction to accrue reputation for, and a new bonus for replaying a story mission. Nothing new or exciting.

Trying to solo the queens wrath at level 24 is a pita, larger enemies are a doodle but it's things like shanks with shields that are stopping me!
Equip a special or heavy weapon with Solar damage to take those out. I found an arc grenade from my hunter ignored their shields and took them straight out.The higher level story stuff and the raid all depend on you having weapons to do the correct type of damage to strip shields. Having 3 different fusion rifles with different elemental damage on each makes those types of encounters a breeze.

Yup, takes them out very easily. I'm finding it a powerful grenade for PvP matches too.Had a good run on this last night. We managed to breeze (relatively) the weekly heroic strike compared to last weeks. Also did a few of the queens bounty missions solo and they were a good test.
Hope they are going to give us the ability to change up the modifiers ourselves at some point, rather than relying on these 'special events'.
Has anyone watched the credits yet? I was wondering where Paul McCartney's involvement was......
it was good last night - although the connection drop outs are happening a little bit to much.
The weekly was a lot easier than the last (or maybe I was just carried along).
I went through the glass with another buddy - damn its hard, I can see why its got a 6 player option - burned through ammo in about 5 mins and had to quit.
I'll be on tonight as the wife is out. - InnocentShadows

A raid is out unless we can 6 for a good block off sessions......

After spending about 45 mins last night trying to get 6 people together (only to discover that if the tower is full you cant add people to your fireteam - wasted 20mins) with various chat/party issues.
We then headed to the Vault of Glass - all players were LVL25+ apart from a 23, oh my word!
we played for an 1hr 30 and couldn't even get the door open! it was stupidly difficult - having to defend the 3 pads whilst building the spire was crazy.
I can only take my hat off to bungie for creating one of the best game types in any game, then stick my fingers up to them for only making it possible for the 1% players that will ever progress through it.
I'm not even gonna attempt it again until i'm at least a 27/28 and all the other members are the same.
Its a shame as the level looks great fun.

I'd like to get the clan doing a Raid but from what I've seen lvl wise we seem possibly too few and not ready gear wise apart from maybe a couple of us. We then headed to the Vault of Glass - all players were LVL25+ apart from a 23, oh my word!

I'd suggest we get a couple of fire teams going to work through dailies/weeklys so that we can hear up and give it a good go.
A patch has been released today and it makes a considerable improvement to the game. I'm not sure exactly which fixes are active now and which are coming soon, but...
1) Chat options are being expanded to opt-in game chat.
2) spawn killing at the Hive cave is being nerfed.
3) scout rifles are being beefed up so they are equal to the other rifles.
4) drop rate for engrams is massively increased. This is active now!
5) revisions to how reputation and marks are doled out.
