Oh and btw wireless earbuds are shit and alot of gaming headsets are dog water for music thats why I have a audiophile desk setup with my pc.

Kz-Dq6 no more said if you wanna spend extra 10 bucks go for the new kz tribrids not telling you what to buy but I have multiple pairs of iems, ranging from cheap to expensive as hell and kz is a amazing company. 👏 enough said. Sorta what you said earlier your not going to notice the difference between a 30 dollar pair of kzs to a lot of 100 to 200 dollar iems unless there certain tunnings 300 to 500 you'll notice a marginal difference and 7 to 1000 you'll notice a bigger difference 😉 but only if you wanna spend money on something that crazy. I only req kzs for budget options then anything above that is magird Teas and above that is the shouer ejo7m then the unique melody mest. Soooooooo what am I saying is buy kzs get a good cable. Got a perfect place that's makes amazing cables for about 30 bucks that has lasted me in a dirt and steel environment and machine coolant environment for over a year now if you'd like.

If you wanna experience true full blown clarity and sound separation tribrids are a must. Litterally it's nutty I can't listen to music on shit headphones or iems anymore. I currently using shouer ejo7m tribrids that's cost 10 times as much as thr kzs and they only outperform in certain departments by margins and I also use a wireless dac so I can skip songs and have better input then my phone Input depending on your music library will matter but seriously kzs you can't go wrong. But like I said it boils down to what you listen to really so im no expert but I have my fair share in the hobby lol between all my audio equipment stuff I have id say for pure music enjoyment I have about 3k in it now if not more. But that's almost a 2 year length. Also expensive isn't always better in the audiophile realm. But if your purely just using iems and not over the ears you'll save your wallet trust me. Cans will get expensive as fuck for a really decent pair. For something to match those tribrids I mentioned you would spend about 500 bucks to match the sound quality you'd get out of a 40 to 50 buck iem lmfao.

I might just see what a 4k monitor is like from Amazon and return it if I don't like it and just keep my monitor.

Ok some may know I play to much destiny and I left the d2 clan a month ago wasn't the place for me and I'm home again. I was chatting with @GazzaGarrattand @Teenwolf25 last night about some ideas.
 
Let me start of by saying i know we didnt have a FG Christmas this year and that kinda sucks. So I was thinking maybe we could do monthly raffles for the UK guys and a raffle for the Westerners. 
 
I'm not sure what kind of giveaways or raffles we could do since most of us play on different systems and live all over the place but I'd like to get something setup.
 
@GazzaGarrattis currently in the process of doing achievements and medals for certain games and attributes for the community and maybe we can set goals to actually win more raffle points or something along those lines like more entries.
 
Now for what I had for an idea of raffles and giveaways would be anything from gift cards to maybe even merch. Going into the merch idea as well I know @GazzaGarrattmyself and @Teenwolf25  were discussing things in the pipe line because right now its just Lee trying to get things sorted but if we could get everyone a piece of merch would be brilliant. I know how much Lee likes to give back.
 
Now to go into the part no one likes the money backing behind it. Now I know not everyone can afford to donate which is totally fine but if we could get everyone to donate a dollar each month to the FG raffles and giveaways that would be insane how much we could grow and expand it. I'm going to try to be more proactive on the website since I actually sat down on the site for the first time on my pc last night. 
 
Also one last thing I'd like to add the three of us also discussed tournaments last night and I think it would be a brilliant idea to even hold raffled tournaments each month but we have to get everyone involved and I understand why Lee does.
 
So on a ending note please leave comments here on the forum or feel free to DM on Discord. Discord name is FallenDark200#8371 thank you have a gg day.

True I understand the complexity behind it. I know the mule work would be a pain and a half to get it off the ground but your one guy. I totally agree with you and clive on the kindness thing and donating. I don't want it to come off as people have to do this, but as a group a family and a community the growth behind this could be huge if it takes off. I know im only one person who might not make a difference but to see it be possible for everyone to be in a tight nit circle doing things even more together monthly or quarterly in the beginning would be awesome. Just trying to get ideas out there that would be a good cause to make the circle bigger and closer and make people keep coming back and maybe to indever to meeting new people and playing other games myself included. Surely it's a idea but I could be wrong might not be situational for some. If we could just have a huge outcome would be mental. I know what it felt like to receive my Hoodie a year ago from fg and still wear it today proudly. Just trying to get options out there to make FG even more fun exciting and to have those real in life things to hold onto be like yeah look at this.

Right, firstly, great thread to start a discussion Justin @FallenDark200 . I appreciate people are starting to creep out of the woodwork and be more visible for the overall cause. I can't ever get enough of that.
 
The concept is great, the mechanics is a little different in how it would work. I looked into a Points system before which had many integrations, and it can work but its complexity can also cause errors and not really work in how want to. Rather than look at the solution, what we're trying to achieve here is essentially a perk that gives back to FGers that help out in special ways e.g. donating to the FGFGF and overall cause. Based on that and what we can pull out on here, is a way to create a specific group from when either people donate. I can also link that to a membership style element that could be easier for people so its already set up rather than having to chip in as and when.
 
However, you also have to consider people for the last few years have donated just off the back of their goodness and when its financially right for them to do so. That choice should never be taken away. I look at this as a great addition and incentive to help people that already donate get potentially something back and encourage others to chip in and 'share the load' as we sometimes say over here.
 
I started drafting membership style things anyway so people can gain more from this place over time, and hopefully that alongside Achievements will be great ways for people to have fun here and help many other FGers in the process - because thats what the end goal should be about.

I think quarterly will work better at the start. Will have more breathing space inbetween and spaced out funding. If the generosity allows then it can be sooner but it needs to start off spaced I think. Personally.  

oooo sounds like a great idea to get some gift giving going all around hell yea Christmas is late!

So there is no functionality behind this other then being able to spy on people on what there playing!? I want ps users to be able to use discord so I can stop using remote play on my pc just to talk to people it's ridiculous imo Xbox is setup is easier with pc players its like why can't we have nice things from sony

Basically this is a way of Sony getting there feet into the door of having a IP and developer that will make future games other then their main studio. Sure buying Bungie right now and only acquiring one IP looks and sounds ridiculous but imo it was a smart move in the right direction with multiple companies scooping up other IP right now. 
 
There are multiple rumors and emails floating around right now that Sony is not buying different IPs so bungie might of been the first one they grabbed. I think from what I have gathered Sony is looking at sqaure enix and one other IP.
 
With all this being said, Sony would be stupid to touch destiny, they would lose money making exclusivity to that franchise until the game is basically done. Why I say that is because of the cross-platform on how it works. Worse comes to worse we get the d1 treatment. I feel destiny as a franchise will continue to grow to whatever there wanting to do to wrap it up and then have big dad Sony now pay for whatever they are wanting to do next.
 
Bungie more in likely went with Sony so they could get into there studios to make actual TV series or movie out of destiny. Now with the future of bungie we might see console exclusive but it won't be for every game. 
 
Now my thoughts on it, I'm kinda in the middle about it. I hope we don't get the shitty end of the Staf like normal and we can keep the community without breaking up new games from different platforms. I think we will see bungie break up some of its knowledge probably pump out hopefully some good games and maybe even TV shows who knows. I might be being to optimistic on this hole buy but I can see great things coming in Sonys future with a powerful company behind them now with litterally unlimited money to produce wonderful gaming environments but the future will tell.

So my opinion might be one sided on this but I agree with clive on this one. I'm not saying anyone is bad at the game but if your interested in this kinda of thing or always wanted to try out a low man raid or any activity really. Let's get you in there and practice it. Let you do rolls your not comfortable with until your confidence is up and boosted knowing you can easily do anything in the game as well. I'd love to help people with it but I'll put as much effort in as the next but you have to be willing to be able to learn and try even if you fail don't get discouraged or quit. Sure some pick things up quicker then others but once your confidence is up on each thing your in there. Then you'll be able to even teach someone else if it came down to it which is an awesome feeling as well. I know a lot people don't play destiny anymore because it's either a grind for them or they are not interested in doing things like this which is totally fine but I do know a handful of people might be curious on attempting something like this. So if anyone wants help let me know don't be afraid to reach out speak up please. I get some people like playing solo as well but hear me out and Lee will agree playing with friends is always better then being alone. So give us a shout with no fear of us not responding always down to help and teach much love.

No not really dids it's more for the pure enjoyment of it and being a more skill based player is all. Numbers don't matter just something that not everyone can achieve or do so it's just a nice feeling knowing you can do it

Let's see where to start ill try awnsering this to the best without going down a rabbit hole. Yes Destiny 2 is a great game for someone to start or to get into. There are so many reasons I could list on why you should play but im sure you have heard. The game has come a long way and I think starting out is easier then ever before but if you have small guidance because the game can feel overwhelming without even any paid content.
 
So let's get into the nitty gritty of it. There will always be options and choices for new players to jump into activities or different game modes in this game, people say the game is dying or its dead but its not. I have been gone since after beyond light and ill go into the after effects of why but as a new player if you have people to play with then life will be so much easier in the game. Understanding the classes the weapons the perks the loadouts and stuff will come in time so don't worry about that stuff just enjoy the strikes the campaign that's free then have someone take you on a strike and show you what the characters and weapons are really like and you'll be sucked in.
 
Now for the part that I think is super toxic about this game. Bungie bungie bungie is very poor at listening to there community also very slow at adding in new content or fixing certain issues the game contains. What I have learned if it gets to point where your not feeling it dont force it let it go destiny 2 can be very very very addicting especially with friends chasing the loot the weapons the hole 9 yards doing harder activities like raids and hard missions like grandmasters.
 
So down to why I left and came back. I started what over a year ago if not longer now I don't remember I put almost a year into the game of grind love sweat and tears into it and it got stale they were not doing anything to my liking and having stale droughts of no new content that I didn't feel was like in the right direction. Now 3 seasons latter in the game its still not perfect its still the same game just made new changes of life bonus and just making the game less of what I call toxic or more community friendly. I switched to pc and wasn't able to play with my friends anymore on there so I used it as an excuse to step away and play other things but now crossplay is enabled I have actually spoke to friends I have talked to in months and it's so nice.
 
So here's the thing if you wanna play destiny and you enjoy what your seeing in the first 4 to 8 hours of gameplay give it a chance play with friends go on mission earn rewards and ask questions cuz im sure there are multiple lifers here that will be able to give you the knowledge the know how and the techniques you need to keep going. So flat out awnser is yes play the game only thing I can say is don't let it consume you or let it ruin your mental health because of the bad toxic ways of bungies at times if you want anymore info or why you should play the game I'd be more down to be actually going into full blown details of what the game is all about.

Thanks everyone, I had a dabble this evening.  First thoughts is damn it still looks incredible and plays surprisingly well on my aging GPU.  While I didn't get the storyline just yet, I recognised certain aspects of characters / enemies which was nice to see again.  I'll attempt to play this in moderation so it doesn't get boring, also because kids are a time sinker 😅. I have no clue on good gear though and how to obtain them, someplace other than raids would be preferable. Good place for resources?
 
Game feels very accessible now. In D1, I only ever completed the first raid they released and I also remember Exotics was hard to come by! You'd have to meet that guy in the tunnel to get them and he only appeared at certain times. Now they are being given away.
 
Purchased the Legendary Edition and joined the clan.
 
Also bought that book, just waiting for Waterstones to deliver to store so I can go collect.

So....we made an island...
 

Name: Fort OG
Location: FG Server, Home Base
 
So I log on today to find @Plumbers Crack continuing his deforestation of the amazon (black forest) and we decide to hold off on that for a bit. We head to home base and Dave goes "so should we make a few towers then, you get you OCD design going and I'll go deforest the meadows?" I mean, yea, this sounds like a good idea! So 7 hours later (Dave left after like 1.5) we have a new tower setup, remade forge and some upgrades. I'm particularly proud of my stack kiln/smelter setup. The kiln drops coal into a collection bin and you can either fill the smelter or the chest. Saves space and fits nicely in the new setup. I also dismantled the old structure I built by the OG part of the base. 

 
While getting the wood left in @Plumbers Crack destruction zone, I wandered into the mountains near by with a frost potion in hand. Now that I have an iron pickax, I want to find some obsidian  so we can have a level 5 work bench. Long story short, I found a small deposit that yielded just enough for us to upgrade home base and Lake Vault to a level five bench...I'd like to introduce "Sir Forge A Lot" and "Baby Got Bench" (if you not get it, not my fault, it's been 25 years...So come reap the spoils of our troll murdering and upgrade those suits friends. 
 
Yes, that is indeed the heads of dink and doink the trolls that attack the base...it felt all but fitting to hang them on the wall!!!
 
@RenFengge came on to do some maintenance and planting, I must say, having planters is pretty badass, looks neato.
@FallenDark200 , check out these photos and the post above for updates since you went out to be present IRL....
 
I'll probably be on later to continue on the dock/harbor or some other areas at base if y'all want to jump on and hang.
