I like it very retro and modern all in one.

Bungie though innit. This is what they do, at one point it was a running joke to find out what colour armbands the Fallen would have in the new expansion, new content everybody! I've been right in every single prediction I've made over them so far except one, which is irking me no end: The recycling of Gjallerhorn. I'm still fairly confident it'll make a comeback. I like Destiny, Destiny 1 was fresh, new, it also coincided with many of us being in that perfect spot in our lives where gaming time was ample & commitments were fewer. Destiny 2s ability to incessantly regurgitate the same shit over and over is what killed the game for me, the whole thing was a complete and utter clusterfuck from day 1, and still is. Every new "season activity" is the same shit over and over, defend this from these waves of baddies. Same crap, different wrapper. I also look towards WoW a lot because I spent a lot of time playing that game, and content wise is shits all over Destiny 1 & 2 combined but I guess that's what you get for paying a monthly sub. I liked Destiny, we had a great run together, but I just can't justify spending more money on killing exactly the same bad guys I've been killing for the last three years, in exactly the same places, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. Oooooh a shiny. Fuck. That.

If I'm honest, for me, it's a bit too... "busy"... the FG should be more prominent..just my $0.02

The base work is all Rachel, you have to go underground to see what I'm up to [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

All good, I merged it with this one 😎

Horde night last night went really well, much less intense than before but was still as enjoyable - nice on @tronic44 and @phil bottle for sorting the base out a lot more. Managed to get a ton of XP from killing all those Zombies too. I appreciate the books too, I can now make a lot more items which I couldn't do before. I want to upgrade the 'Yeah! Science' perks so i can make more First Aid elements alongside some engineering things too. Unfortunately I died quite a long way away from base so i've left a bike near that which i'll get back when I can because I still need to find the treasure in there.

Any thoughts on the new banner?

It does look a tad over crowded to me and also I feel Mario and Toad just don't really fit in. They are the first characters I notice every time as they just seem to pop out more, maybe due to the bright colours.

Cheers for the feedback! I’ve got a different idea, will build it tomorrow.

Probably best I dont comment!!! 🤣🤣 Good job mate 👍🏻

Fuck this fucking quiz in the fucking fuck. Can't even cheat either. Fuck.

Fair enough and good points. But we are still talking about Bungie here.. And you must know Bungie by now, do You? They created this whole fiasco themselves in the first place, because of lazy devs. Look at the past 3+ seasons, no noteworthy new weapons, just re-skinned or ever so slightly partially re-modeled weapons that we've seen already a thousand times, with even 90% of the same perks. No wonder no one bothered to try them out. Even if they made weapons on the same level as a Recluse or Mountaintop, people would still be like: "Why would I invest time and grind my balls off for something I already have and it works perfectly for me? I already have the equivalent of that." It's simply Human Nature. And oh boy, people do really carefully choose where and how to invest their time in this game, otherwise it's just wasted for them. On the endgame level, but also on the very above average player level - this game is just mid maxing. Time and efficiency. So you have to give a really good reason to someone at that level, to invest a set amount of time. And you'll achieve that by giving always ever so slightly better rewards. So for example, if Players got a slightly better weapon then Recluse, they will grind for it - so now that Recluse is not the meta anymore, it will be forgotten and can even be retired/sunset in 3-4 seasons. Because by that time, players already moved on to that second or third weapon that came out, and so on, with each weapon being ever so slightly better then the previous one. When I say ever so slightly, I mean it - so that it won't be too op and break the game and so that other weapons can still compete with it. That is the way to go I think. But Bungie decided to shit on everyone's time invested instead and is about to just sunset everyone's weapons, that people have grinded for hours, days, years. And by that I don't mean pinnacle weapons obtained through quests. I mean the really hard ones to get a God Roll in, like Spare Rations (farming that Reckoning for a Year killed my soul), Bygones, Last Man Standing, Waking Vigil, Hammer Head, Austringer etc. If the RNGOD is literally not your Daddy, you'll spend months grinding for God Rolls for those new weapons too, only this time you'll be time restricted to use them. Which bags the question, what's the point then? Bungies quote: "You'll still be able to use all your weapons in 80% of activities" is just so misleading, such a scam. The whole point of grinding for a weapons God Roll, by spending possibly months or even a year doing so, is to be able to use that same weapon for pinnacle, endgame activities! I sure as hell won't be grinding months for a God Roll just to use it in patrols!!! Like what the f... So basically now, they are taking away almost all your weapons you worked so hard for, they are giving you new weapons to grind for every few seasons. NOT because they are better, but because you have expiration dates on your gear now. And if you wan't to stay on the top and have always the best weapons with the highest power level, guess what? Grind your balls off. And then we have Armor power caps. Which is a whole different Bungie greed story. Yes Armor, the most grindy and annoying grind of all the grinds. You finally found yourself a good armor set with the stats spread the way you want. You spent almost all your rare materials to masterwork those pieces. And now you'll have to keep grinding for new armor pieces because inevitably it won't be top power level forever and not good for endgame, pinnacle activities, which is the whole point of the game. To finally get gear that allows you to tackle that endgame stuff. No one hunts for top gear and God Rolls just to hop in a god damn public event. THE ONLY REASON they did this is so they can milk more money through transmog stuff. Because not everyone has the time to play 6+ hours a day so he can build up that Bright Dust economy. They will offer those transmog's on their new Eververse store so people can just buy them for real money. Because retiring Armor has nothing to do with retiring weapons and nothing to do with power creep. No armor is OP like weapons are. Other then exotics, but hey guess what? No one cares about Antaeus Wards breaking the god damn game in pvp. Bungie has just become this greedy ass Company that doesn't give a F*ck about the player base anymore. They are just trying to milk out the time that players spend in the game by inventing new ways to grind the same things you already have. They'll take your weapons away, making them useless for endgame, just so they can reiterate them later again, so you can grind them again if you want the max power level. Plain and simple. (The more players spend more time in game = good statistics on paper, Investors happy, Marketing goes up = Profit) Steve Jobs, as much as I hated that guy, was very intelligent. He explains this best: Why Bungie Fails. Look at the Felwinter's Lie Quest... Says it all. OFF TOPIC: Humor level 9000 Cheers !

It’s set for next Friday isn’t it?

Take a bike with you and just pick it up when you grab the other bike. I'm glad the base stodd up to them, i dont want to be spending every day after horde night building the base back up haha

Well I got my Astro A20's yesterday and I used them all day for teaching my online lessons and doing my first ever live stream of Dungeons and Dragons. Very comfy on the ear, crystal clear, great battery life. Can't grumble for £100.

Aaagghh!! I’ve just created a new post about this! 😂😂😂

I say update but this is the first I’d heard about Amazon creating video games....however there is a good chance that I missed it previously 😂 'Can games be as fun to watch as they are to play?' WWW.BBC.CO.UK Amazon Game Studios hopes its new game Crucible can compete with Overwatch and Fortnite.

It's only available in the US so far but yeah weird one, Steam and Amazon linking up could be interesting. You know Star Citizen is using an Amazon engine... Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Yes I have a scuff with the 4 paddles. I love it and will never go back to a normal controller. If anyone can get hold of Kempy he has a set of back paddles I bought to add to the FGFG fund. They were limited to one per person so I bought my son a set then Kempy let me use his Game account to order another set but they got sent to his house.

You certainly can, I think we’ve already found a load of turrets but we’ll need to start making bullets before we can use them. I also think the turrets may need to be powered, I think we’re still a way away from power. We can just ourselves a moat and you can make a drawbridge. Went and raided the book store yesterday with Phil, we found quite a few books but they’ve made it much harder to find them in this alpha. Before you’d raid the massive store and pretty much find everything you need, we’ll not any more. We saved most of the books we found so others can read them. Still trying to build the base back up, need more sand, stone and clay. Got a little side tracked by the book store. The next thing I want to be able to learn is steel making. not sure how far away from that but we really need a better door. I might have to make more than one door.

will we use discord to do a voice or video chat also? For the bants?
