Multiplat Destiny

Just an opinion but isn't the option to be more defensive and watch the radar?

I can get why it pisses people off but it forces you to re think strategy doesn't it? And people being on the same level negates all the 'unfairness'?

Haven't played it nowhere near long enough, but as long as its a mostly level playing field, cant see the issue.

ill kinda have to agree with seawind here about supers. supers are kind of a joke in crucible. the feeling of 'there is nothing i could've done about that' *(aka death from a super) is the worst feeling and is a major indictment on destiny's pvp.
*as in literally nothing could have been done.

if it was up to me i would take supers out of all serious pvp(control,clash,elimination,etc.) and keep it for casual gametypes. (the upcoming mayhem mode looks fun.)

I could get behind Trials being no radar no supers.

I get the frustrations somewhat, I lose a bit of patience when people say they are "unbeatable" though.

Personally I actually enjoy duelling someone when they have popped Golden gun, makes you feel awesome if you manage to ruin his super. They keep the game quite exciting.
There is definitely room however for a mode with no supers so people can just rely on their gunplay

yeah but what if someone nova bombs and fists of panics around a corner? its the 'no effort kill' that bugs me. supers are major advantage that you didnt do much to get....
think about like this- when you get killed by heavy you say 'well played' because the player got the advantage by picking up the ammo. imagine if heavy was gifted?
if supers were a map-pick up it wouldnt be so bad because the player earned the advantage.

I guess the rebuttal to that would be, you need to actually perform and help out to get Super energy?

Or maybe a change just needs to be made to limit the amount of supers per game.

thats just playing normally- you didnt do anything special (such as a pick-up) to get that advantage.
besides you can still get supers without doing anything at all!

Anyone want to carry a poor level 30 warlock through Nightfall tonight? About to jump online when Masterchef is finished and my children are in bed.

 

[Blacky]

I will tomorrow if no one does tonight

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Nuts. Hadn't realised it was a House of Wolves. Still yet to get the expansions. Bought a new Hawthorn jumper instead today.

 

[Blacky]

Pay the bones

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Thanks to Vooligan, Seanybruz, Spudregus_87 and others for carrying me through the Vault. It was intense for this noob.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Pay the bones

At this point, I intend to wait for The Taken King before buying the expansions.

Anytime

Sorry I dropped out of the party, moments before thinking the relic shield was R1 + R2

[Spudregus_87]

Good news is that this will likely be my last post in this thread, barring any additional bait.

Hows everyones moments of triumph emblem looking? I still need 7 gold chests.

4 here, didn't know I was that close to be honest.

Cool little reward. Would like them to start introducing unlockables after certain criteria are met in game. Would give completionists a goal, and if they can tie more emblems and shaders to rewards they can make them purchasable from Tess in the Tower, thus alleviating some of the Vault space issue we are having.

Being killed by a blade dancer's super and whining about it...

 

[hirdylloydy1]

Apparently the crucible part is kill 100 guardians, not 100 wins, which explains why mine is achieved even though i havent even played 100 games
