  1. Steam Curation!

    same on Xbone. Pretty sure nobody else from here is on that system but if someone is and wants to be friends, my name is the same as here!In happy news they said they're going to add some way of chatting in-game. Today I managed to find two dudes in Hubtown willing to tackle the Weekly at Level 26 so I was able to get that sweet Exotic Hunter mask! Balling. Eventually you can still see your radar even when ADS
  3. New people: Read this, say hi.

    That other guy wrote a script that runs on your router which is monitoring your web browser and registering as "Jason" at every URL you go. This man's name is Roy.
  4. Destiny

    Anyone else a little frustrated there isn't more matchmaking for some of the missions? I am simply not good enough to solo the Weeklies and none of the friends I play with want to do them. : ' (

    I agree on Leg Engrams, it's insane that they drop so few actual Legendary items. I am level 25 and have only gotten three Legendaries total, all were from blue engrams that randomly rolled up.

    I am still at level 24, was trying to get level 2 in my clan today but then the servers conked out

    Thanks for sharing this, good stuff - particularly the gifs in the nba y2k article
  8. Destiny

    I am almost level 23 and have yet to get anything Legendary whatsoever These drop rates seem really rough but maybe it improves at higher levels?
  9. Destiny

    Pulse rifle with fast RoF and a Shotgun are pretty ace for this Bladedancer on most of the maps, Sniper for the rest. I am like level 21 now so maybe that changes at higher levels, or when people in general get more aware of the maps.
  10. Destiny

    I started out really liking hand cannons and disliking the burst gun but that has reversed for me now. The only one I doubt I will ever like is the charge-up gun.

    Edit: what joncole said I looked at about four of those faction joining cloaks before I noticed it said that in the item description because I SMART
  12. Destiny

    I think the daily challenge thingies go over there as well. Enjoying this more than I expected, mostly because of the feel of multiplayer Deathmatch.
  13. Well one of my dirty secrets is that I really despise the Uncharted games because I felt like I had no agency. So in the trailer, I see him rappelling down a cliff and think "ok so that is going to be a place where I push x and then watch an animation." I can't remember exactly what the other shots in the trailer were but they kind of had the same thing going on - a pretty looking but probably set piece moment. In the gameplay demo I could see that no it is a lot more open. Maybe you guys took that as a given, but I have been a little unclear on the mechanics of gameplay up until that walkthrough. I am an old man enough gamer to honestly be mostly into games for mechanics, they are really all I care about so that is what swung me around so hard.
  14. Sorry to change the topic a little, but fwiw I didn't find the trailer very appealing and actually thought "this game is probably not for me" because the segments shown were a little more scripted and I don't like the TF2 style hands personally. And then the playthrough video totally won me over and I loved every part shown. Figured that was odd enough to share.
  15. Diablo III

    Nooo! I didn't know about that change as I am playing mostly on the Xbone version right now. I like the controls a little better on console and wish they would add controller support to the PC version.
  16. Diablo III

    I was the same way with Monk until I figured out you can draw mobs to you and then light them on fire so they start chain-exploding. I really dig that specific combination of moves.
  17. Super Time Force from Capy

    Free w Gold on Xbone right now
  18. Diablo III

    Yeah Expert is much too easy after the first few hours if you get any useful Legendaries at all. My only complaint about the game in terms of difficulty is I think they should unlock the various difficulties all right at the beginning. The last few hours on the toughest unlocked difficulty were too easy. That said I really do think the main game is after that playthrough, in Adventure Mode chasing Legs and Keys. I get that it's not for everyone but I really like these types of games and think Diablo 3 on PS4 and Xbone is one of the best executions of the genre. Btw my rule of thumb is that if a regular enemy takes more than three hits to kill, it's time to drop the difficulty. Think of the system as being time-based rather than number-based and it makes more sense.
  19. I am somewhat sympathetic to TC and have never noticed any issues. That said I have large hands and am generally pretty bad at games so I figure I am either an outlier or just too bad to notice and assume I am just messing up when controls go sideways.
  20. Diablo III

    So now I am playing this game on Xbox One. I know most folks here don't have that platform but if you do feel free to add me (gt SilentBtAmazing). It is really fun, my favorite version (I also play on PC sometimes).
  21. I would like you to keep posting them! I haven't made it to one yet but I have tried a couple times
  22. I Had a Random Thought (About Video Games)

    I feel you dude, I have the exact same problem. Also I wear glasses right before bed and have a large noggin, so headphones inevitably turn uncomfortable.
  23. P.T (Playable Teaser for Silent Hills)

    You guys are making me think a little about religion in this context. As a pretty solid atheist, horror movies/books and good live music concerts are about the only things that for me recapitulate quasi-religious feelings I experienced as a child/adolescent. Supernatural dread is probably more appealing when it's one of the only supernatural-feeling experiences you can generate for yourself, you know?
  24. The zombies were controlled by deckers. I can't speak for Blambo but old steampunk is kind of my primary Victorian gothic touchpoint.
  25. I had the exact same reaction, especially in the overworld parts where you can see the clock tower
