Got my Thorn last night and I was expecting to tear people up in crucible but I guess I have to get the dot perk first. Glad I had a friend help with the Xyor mission because I was not expecting ascendant shit in a lvl 26.

Kinda fucked up, but chuckled a lil bit. Some kid let's a random dude use Share-Play, and gets his chars deleted. One of em' w/ Hawkmoon I think. He doesn't flip out like you'd expect but still comical.

More than a little fucked up. I'm sure the other guy is a 40 year old neck beard with a Mountain Dew and cheeto addiction and small dick

This weapon was affected by overall Fusion Rifle changes because it is treated as a secondary weapon

The things that Bungie decides to focus their resources on is mind boggling.

Still doing the same fucking 10 bounties that were in at launch for the millionth time? ----------- Sorry can't do shit for you!
Oh you figured out a way to make the game more enjoyable that might not have been intended ------------Lets patch that shit up right away!

Latest article about the patch notes on Kotaku has this opening line:

"Today Bungie released a new patch for Destiny, a video game in which players gradually learn how to quit playing Destiny."

some of my other favorite opening lines for Destiny news from this site:


"Farewell, hilarious Destiny exploit that allowed us to kill Crota by pulling out a LAN cable and watching him enter a permanent state of paralysis as we danced around his big dumb green head."


"On Saturday, I started a brand new character in Destiny, a video game in which players travel through space fighting against impenetrable dialogue."


"Destiny, a video game in which players roam the solar system getting angry at Destiny, recently introduced some changes to exotic weapons and armor, and today, as we finally see the last of those changes in action, it's become clear that they're a total mess."


"Destiny is fun and all, but you know what it really needs? Paul McCartney's hologram flailing his arms while a group of guardians sits in a semi-circle, peacefully contemplating what it means to be human."


"Today, Bungie released a new update for Destiny, a video game in which players travel the galaxy asking themselves why they're still playing Destiny."


"Destiny, a video game in which players travel through the galaxy and battle against random loot tables, is by most accounts a commercial success."

With the new pvp changes to ammo they had to nerf the shoot to loot scout rifle asap imo

Shoot to Loot is still good tho, and it looks like the heavy ammo glitch didn't get fixed so happy hunting lol

Waited five months for a fix to the heavy ammo bug and you still fucking lose heavy when you go to orbit.

These are some inept motherfuckers

I gotta say, i am blown away by how awesome today's surprise update is. Being able to swap gear instantly to/ from the vault and alts via phone or web is awesome. Can even do it while logged in. No more tedious tower loading when doing multiple raids or nightfalls. Well done Bungie

Holy FUCK I hate my life. Awesome update but I literally spent almost 2 hours last night moving gear around into and out of the vault on all my characters just to have enough space to store my 3rd characters weapons while I re-rolled them into a warlock. WHY THE FUCK couldn't they have put that update in yesterday. I am cursed =(

Probably the best thing about that gear swapping update is that for stacked resources you can actually specify how many you want to take instead of having to take the entire stack.

Yep, really nice stealth update. Now if they doubled the weapon storage space in the vault I might start running out of things to bitch about

Now that the heavy ammo bug is at least mostly fixed, I'm up for some HM Scrota kills this weekend

Have not logged in more than a handful of times in three weeks and somehow managed to get my 6th from a nightfall I didn't even want to do. (helped a friend at boss)

Oh Destiny, you are such a tease. After burning through 115 motes last week trying for HoPF, and getting nothing but other class exotic chests, Xur sells the HoPF today (for the first time ever).
