GazzaGarratt reacted to J4MES OX4D in Who's in for Shadowkeep and Free to Play Destiny 2?
Cheers guys! I believe Forsaken isn't quite ready on PC yet as they've had migration issues with that specific content so I will probably do CoO and Warmind material and do things in order among the other stuff. Sounds a lot more fleshed out than what it was right at the start so I'm looking forward to seeing what has changed and improved. If it's enjoyable and I can commit myself, I will definitely pick up Shadowkeep. Moon was great in Destiny 1 albeit a bit basic and I've heard there's plenty to do in the new campaign with it also being some of the most challenging gameplay to date in the series.

Here's the deal tbh. There's no need to sacrifice your life to grinding away for Power. You will automatically be drawn to it but the entire free stuff would keep you busy separately if you want to try out all the different gamemodes. Clearly the regulars will be wanting to get into the Moon and new content but whats great is we can play all the other stuff now with everyone else - and more importantly help each other get certain awesome weapons and beat hard activities. For an example, you'll get the Menagerie for free, a 6 player activity which is slightly down from a raid, however we played it on Heroic difficulty where the whole team can't wipe and it was one of the hardest things i've ever done. Great thing is though you can take your time, no revive timer and makes for some real clutch moments.
You don't have to do the stuff you've already done if you don't want to. Basically its in the first picture in the OP but all you've done is small box - Red War campaign. You could:
Do more story Curse of Osiris DLC (not great story but nice grind for some osiris weapons and an awesome Search for Saint-14 quest with it) Warmind DLC (One of the best search and find treasure games with finding music boxes and some exotic quests too. Better story than Osiris DLC Forges with 2 others to get some of the best weapons. 3 rounds of beating PvE enemies, ways to get some tasty exotics. Can reroll some great guns. Pulse Rifle is decent, machine gun is in the top heavies to own. Also has a rare Shotgun that is the one to own (Threat Level - i still haven't got it yet) Gambit Prime aswell as Gambit. This is so different to any PvP game i've ever played. Really mixes it up and if you love PvE makes you want to play it with the twist of screwing up someone elses game by going to the other teams realm and killing their team. Linked to Reckoning when you play Prime. Another different PvE activity. Against a clock, quite challenging enemies, 3 tiers. Make your way through different sections that you need to be work well with your 4-man team. Lots of supers, lots of shit everywhere. Good fun. Also you do this to get themed gear sets for Gambit Prime so you get further boosts and perks in Gambit Prime. I have a whole set that looks like Master Chief in Halo. Menagerie is one of the best 6 player activities they've created. Matchmade, can't really fail it unless you play Heroic. Guaranteed way to roll specific loot you want. Also should be to do the tribute hall i imagine. Like a shooting range but also hunt for triumphs. Not sure if you can access it as its Year 2, but Bad Juju exotic pulse rifle is obtain through here. Leviathan Raid. If you don't usually run raids it can be quite time consuming but fun when you nail a section. Massive space and needs a co-ordinated team. Not as good as D1 raids but still worthwhile completing for the challenge part Nightfall Specific Loot All Pinnacle Legendary weapons to chase through quests in Crucible Strikes (Vanguard) Gambit
Oh, you can also roam every single destination, even if you can't do some of the quests, adventures, missions, etc that are there. I think thats pretty cool as you can experience the world doing public events and hopefully try one of the seasons if you fancy it.
So, yeah theres some stuff left to do on the map 😄

GazzaGarratt reacted to TigerBurge in Complete Destiny Lore Video
Amazing video and story. I enjoy the lore of Destiny. Hold on though it’s almost four hours

If you did only the vanilla there will be tons to do. I will say though it’s worth getting forsaken though. The story was done very well.
So here’s the gist of it, CoO sucked. By far the worst DLC ever. Hated all of it.
I really liked the Warmind DLC though. Good story. I like the lore that’s tied to Rasputin so it grabbed me a little
The Black Armory was really fun once however the grind to the Black Armory was a bit much. Liked a lot of the weapons and enjoy the forges.
The Menagerie however is some of the most fun I’ve had in Destiny. Think of it a mini raids. You will have up to five, I think, encounters. All like little raid bosses. You’re able to select what loot you want. From armor to weapons. It was so well done and fun. I really hope they continue to add new things into the menagerie to keep it fresh.
Gambit it is fun,especially with a group. I’ll play it just to fuck about and do quest or bounties.

I got as far as the Warmind missions before dropping. I've jumped back in again recently. Not sure if to go for this and whether to go PC or PS4. I have too many other games I enjoy playing, to be able to dedicate to the grind, so will see.

So I think it's time to see who's actually thinking of getting stuck into Shadowkeep and whos considering coming back for the free version?
The below graphics show some facts about what is free and also what you get for buying the standard Shadowkeep pack and then with the additional pass - deluxe version.
I'm really hoping we can rejuvenate the clan part again and really start getting stuck into all the activities going on as there'll be even more to do come Tuesday.
So who's in and for what bit?!

No I believe it was a more console video and where your gaurdians power is it just had 1016
-
GazzaGarratt reacted to techno in Who's in for Shadowkeep and Free to Play Destiny 2?
Not with the seasonal artifact there was a video showing a 1016 level gaurdian and the youtuber said can someone hit 2000. The more you play the higher it goes, I don't know how this will affect balance.

Brand new map called Worlds Edge - primarily fire and ice themed with the usual grass in between.

GazzaGarratt got a reaction from Dan94 in The netcode for this game is worse than BO4.
I actually agree with you, these days nearly every game has issues at launch and will always need a patch or two to stabilise the game.
However, I don't think it'll have major issues, just a bunch of tweaks to happen. This beta showed that it's in a pretty decent state considering the pap we've seen in other game betas.

GazzaGarratt reacted to techno in Who's in for Shadowkeep and Free to Play Destiny 2?
With the artifact no power cap

GazzaGarratt reacted to MrBiron in The netcode for this game is worse than BO4.
The vast majority of the issues in the beta will still be there in the full game. I'd bet actual real world money on that. The game we played will have been basically the finished product as the game is out in a month.

Sounds promising. I can only imagine loot boxes but without guns which is middle ground. Then it's back to the telling the dumb people to stop buying them.

GazzaGarratt reacted to techno in Who's in for Shadowkeep and Free to Play Destiny 2?
Well im in, the news about pinnacle weapons is a bit of a downer as it gives me no reason to do comp. Everything else including maybe a return to raiding.
-
GazzaGarratt reacted to TigerBurge in The netcode for this game is worse than BO4.
The thing to remember is that it was a beta. Plus doing cross play for the first time. There’s going to be some growing pains with any game that’s making changes like this. I’m not a CoD fanboy but even with its issues I’ve really enjoyed it so far. Ready to see the full game.
-
GazzaGarratt reacted to phil bottle in The netcode for this game is worse than BO4.
It's pretty much a brand new game, one would imagine they needed a beta so they could look at net code under pressure and sort it prior to release. It should not be a stretch to imagine that they want to release a good game that works. It's a make it break game for COD for many ppl and they know it.
Plus, dedicated servers.

Good job I have a PS4 then 😄
Just can't see that changing anytime soon I'm afraid. A small amount of time e.g. 7-14 days before everyone gets the content is more reasonable to stomach.
