Crimson Days begins in Destiny 2 on Tuesday, February 13. At the heart of the weeklong event is a 2v2 Crucible playlist intended to get your blood pumping as you and a friend test your bonds to the breaking point. This celebration of teamwork will last one week! The combat scenario is 2v2 Clash with a round-based twist. We will also be debuting The Burnout, a new take on The Burning Shrine set in a future timeline where the Vex have succeeded in altering our reality. The sun is darkened and the only Light to be found comes from you and your partner fighting as one. Stay in close proximity to your partner and your abilities recharge at a faster rate. Stray too far, and your enemies will be given a waypoint leading to your location. If you can’t find a partner, don’t worry. We’ll play matchmaker and find one for you. The Rewards The best way to earn rewards during Crimson Days is to compete in the Crimson Days Crucible playlist, and we’ve tuned the experience to focus on rewarding single-character play. Most rewards are found within a new Crimson Engram, with all contents on a “knock-out” list, preventing you from receiving duplicate items until you’ve earned all of the new gear. No matter which activity you play in Destiny 2 during Crimson Days, every player will receive both an Illuminated Engram and a Crimson Engram when they level up. Crimson Engrams are only earnable through gameplay, and are not capped or limited during the event. To qualify, you need only to reach the level cap for your Guardian (that’s 25 if you’ve acquired Expansion 1; 20 if you haven’t). There are also five new rewards found exclusively for players who complete the following: Complete the milestone “Welcome to Crimson Days” by finishing five Crimson Days matches and visiting Lord Shaxx in the Tower to earn the Fire of the Crimson Days Emblem and the Tirastrella Ghost Shell. Complete matches in the Crimson Days Crucible playlist for a chance to earn the Undeterred Exotic Sparrow. Complete either the Leviathan Raid or the Raid Lair: Eater of Worlds to claim the Dieselpunk Exotic Ornament for Wardcliff Coil from the final chest. Complete the Nightfall Strike during the Crimson Days event to earn the Flaunting Dance Emote. Tirastrella Ghost Shell Undeterred Exotic Sparrow Dieselpunk Exotic Ornament Flaunting Dance Emote Crimson Engrams will only be earnable through gameplay, but if you’re looking to directly purchase a specific item, Tess will also offer a selection of the Crimson Engram contents in exchange for the Bright Dust you are holding. Gear purchased with Bright Dust will also count towards the “knock-out” list mechanic described above, preventing duplicate items unless you have already earned all the rewards. Every reward item obtained from a Crimson Engram can also be dismantled for Bright Dust, including event-specific shaders. Crimson Days will begin next Tuesday, February 13, and conclude on the weekly reset at 9 AM PST on Tuesday, February 20. If you’ve yet to find a dance partner, now is the time. We’ll see you in the arena.

Yeah, sorry man just not near my phone and going to bed in a minute. Thanks for changing it so quickly.

Happy Birthday @JBR-Kiwi! Hope you got a bday 50 killing spree on CoD tonight?!

What, like a dungeon thing? It works for me too! Also Bart, could you upgrade me to a Member please as I checked on the server tonight and can't do anything whilst i'm a guest. Everything looks amazing already btw.

That is an impressive cock-up.

Watched her at an 80s night recently as she impressed me as I didn't think she was overly amazing. Still had the Leather jacket on! Via the FG App

It really does look awesome. So do we know more about the mechanic as I originally thought you get 4 new players rather than an all-in-one character? Via the FG App

Personally I know we've got to the balance right; 'organised fun' gets banded about abit sometimes but I know theres quite a few people that if they only get 3, 2 or 1 evening to play games they really want a party to jump in with so it would always help to know you've got a few others to jump in with. Need a balance of spontaneous random fun and fun game nights to look forward to. Via the FG App

CTF mode has always been terrible on this game. Bice to see them trying to resolve it but I think they're going abit too far by adding ranked play to the seasonal event. I'm all for ranked play but it would be nice to see them focus on PvE elements. Seasonal activity keeps people coming back but at somd point the player base will get stale if they can't add variation of game modes on a longer term basis. Via the FG App

Ahhhhhhhh crap. Warframe noob speaking. [emoji52] Via the FG App

Good stuff. Do you get the perks from Level 5 onwards then?

They're saying it's in game engine stuff which is impressive - can't find much on the game yet though?

Event Title: Cards Against Humanity (PC/Phone) Event Author: GazzaGarratt Calendar: Community Calendar Event Date: 02/09/2018 08:00 PM to 02/09/2018 09:00 PM Right, we need to test some 4K resolution out by playing state of the art, Cards Against Humanity! @Greboth will set it all up, see below the details you need, make sure you RSVP people!

I have no idea if this a good deal or not. Hang on, I thought Primes were effectively a character/suit so you don't need to buy multiple?

Personally I think this is a good way of trying to keep the fun going as we haven't been having the big giggles nights that we usually do. If it don't work then we stop and try something else but surely its worth a bash - I think we've all been missing grouping with everyone and maybe if we all looked at one time to see when people are on then we know we've got a fun night to look forward to. Can you put down here what you may like to do as a group please? I know not everyone has the time to make an event but equally feel free to make one if you can do.

The clunky controls concern me but it is getting a large support from the grindy gamer people. Whilst it's a stretch comparison, Bloodborne's battle mechanics I really enjoyed which can be sort of linked to this (i didn't play Dark Souls so can't use that comparison myself). Via the FG App

Honestly Dave, it's something a lot of players want and especially as we have so many people online these days where its a good place to dip in and out of chats. It has choice right now if you don't prefer large lobbies, you just set the limit to 2, 4 or whatever you want so the people that still want small chats, can do so. I just don't think they'll do it until PS5 is out. They obviously struggle doing it as they would've replicated Microsoft's approach. Or Get your name right the first time round... @crispymorgan [emoji38] Via the FG App

Lol. Epic shooting. Via the FG App

What is the Tournament Team Pages? Never seen those before. I wished they would prioritise the chat party limit. Needs to be increased to around 16 imo. Via the FG App

Do it if Plumber and Bart are cool with it. I'll be installing MC across the next few days [emoji106] Via the FG App

What decent guns would you suggest to get hold of? Via the FG App

I believe I have as I double checked what I bought and downloaded. Frustrating as hell. Will do and that would be ace, cheers mate. Via the FG App
