Hey all, The Imaginarium Studios will be live streaming VR this Friday for Halloween. This will be our first live stream on twitch.tv and will be the first of many. Whether you're an experienced VR player or just curious about the tech, tune in and join us for some laughs. https://go.twitch.tv/theimaginariumstudios Here's an extra sepecial video for you all

This website helps Guardians track their collection of cool gear and help them complete their sets. It talks to Bungie.net to automatically mark of gear you've collected, so no more marking items in spreadsheets. https://destinysets.com/all-items

Goal of the season guaranteed

Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/46426 We have seen lots of questions about bans being issued in the PC version of Destiny 2. To provide some information, we would like to share some facts. The following is true: Destiny 2 cannot automatically ban you, only Bungie can ban a player after a manual investigation Yesterday, we banned approximately 400 players on PC Bans were applied to players who were using tools that pose a threat to the shared ecosystem of the game We did not (and will not) issue any bans for the use of overlays or performance tools, including Discord, Xsplit, OBS, RTSS, etc. Information on using third-party applications can be found here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/46101 We are overturning 4 of the bans that were issued during the PC Beta We are committed to providing an experience that is fun and fair for the millions of players who have joined us in this community.

You have to fucking fix this. I haven't played the Witcher 3 like you, so this for me is my best SP campaign I've ever played.

Just to let everyone know, once we're happy with how the live streams are going, I'll start integrating the forum into our streams. This will mean that we'll be able to invite people (you beautiful people) to come take part in the streams and possibly even try out mocap. The forum will also be mentioned in streams and links and logos will eventually go up. I want to not only build a following for the company, as well as getting more interested in Mocap and VR but also build a following for the forum. To be warned, this is a professional gig and will be treated that way, if you're invited to join us at any point then I expect you to also treat it that way. That doesn't mean there won't be beer I'm also looking into The Imaginarium hosting a stream from FG folks, as I think it's important that we have a wide range of games being streamed and it will help with streaming during the week. I'll write another thread, at some point, about using the FG_Streams twitch account to stream but that's for a different day. I just want to be honest and tell you guys what the plan is, now that I can. I probably have a million other things to talk about but my mind's going at a million miles an hour and can't think of them If anyone has any questions or ideas for streaming please drop me a PM as you may come up with some genius idea and I don't want other stealing them. If anyone has Twitter then please follow to stay tuned with more regular updates. Twitter = richbestims Much love

That should be good for me!

It all bought through v dollars which are expensive from the ps store, I don't think they can be earned in game

I think the Steam Halloween sale starts later today

Great stuff Rich! Really looking forward to seeing it, hopefully will get chance to whilst we're away. Looks epic.

Really good update, surprising actually. Cheers for sharing Chris @Amnotright Decent idea to customise your character as people like to do that kind of stuff. The daily challenges and Leaderboards should lead to more reasons to come back to the game, coupled with the Seasons update. Fair play to the developers. Next up surely is a new map. That would retain and bring back some of the player base who have given it a few go's.

Pull your fucking fingers out everyone. I'm waiting to claim my trophy and considering the effort Rib made to set it up let's not be slack, the games only last 10 minutes ffs [emoji38] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

There's a free demo on PS4 in case no one posted about it, well worth a try[emoji106] Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
