Derek™ Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I would love to play the Halo series and also Halo 5, but I think I would get burnt out after a couple of months. The franchise doesn't hold the replayability that it used to for me, while I was in high-school or college... and each installment of Halo seems to have less and less Xbox Live life. (Not speaking just personally, but also statistically – they've been dwindling significantly since Halo 3.) I'd still love to play them, but there's no way I could justify purchasing an XB1 to do so. But if I could rent or borrow one... [edit] Played one match of The Crucible in Destiny and can confirm that I'm balls. Feels worlds different than Halo or any FPS I've played... at least at the moment. Encounters are frantic and I seem to have a tough time differentiating enemies from teammates at a glance. I was the lowest level in the lobby, but I don't think that had much to do with how badly I was destroyed. Maybe it'll get better. Or rather, maybe I will.

alogical Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 So I was playing NHL 15 online, ranked matches. Ive only won once out of 7 games. I always lose by one goal and half the time it was in overtime. I lost 4-3 to a 10 year old. Shit you not, I heard him and his dad talking must've been through the Kinect or something. My life :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedeni Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Reached level 20 last night and started doing Heroics, Crucible and Strikes. Time to start grinding for gear and leveling with light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batman Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 derek and i beasted through destiny yesterday. i think i started playing at about 10am yesterday and stopped around 6am this morning with a few breaks for food. already finished the story (mehhhh) and i'm halfway through level 21 now--been working on getting more vanguard rep. endgame stuff is going to take forever, not sure if i really want to commit that much time, but we'll see. i tried another crucible match earlier--just a 3v3 skirmish and it was more fun than control. still not great, but a step up. idk if i have the patience to really play it enough to get all the legendary gear though.

bluedeni Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 There is a raid next week for level 26 people although there is no matchmaking. This weekend it's A special crucible event. So at least they get that the game is short and they are rolling out new stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooks Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I was farming engrams for a few hours last night... Finally got my first legendary drop. Went back to the cryptarch... And it was a rare. The grind is real in this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was a rare. The grind is real in this game. Yeah I have gotten a few legendary engrams. I was so excited and then bam they end up being blue. I have to say they should have made the stuff like vanguard and crucible into tiers. Where you get buy stuff at rank one then at rank too. The worst is trying to grind for strange coins to get the exotic stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Well I got my first legendary. I'm farming about 5-10 blues an hour. Nor bad. Up to 12 motes of light. Can't wait to buy those hunter capes... Hot Damn. If anyone sees me on later, join up on me and I can guarantee you'll get some blues . Finally hit light level 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like using normal teams, too confusing for me otherwise hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally hit light level 24 Where are you farming, out of curiosity? This game is adamant about keeping me at level 20. I haven't encountered a single purple (legendary) engram. And even when I get a few, I'm confident they'd turn out to be uncommon junk, knowing my luck. But I've done a lot of patrolling / missions and strikes to no avail. Disheartening.

bluedeni Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 If you can find someone to do nexus on Venus you can farm pretty easily. I can never find anyone and you can't solo it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
distinctlydustin Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 So, do you guys farm in the story mode? Crucible kicked me ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
