It's far too early to look for it's own forum to be honest. If it's still this active in 3-6 months then maybe then I'd consider it but I've seen similar forums die in the past.

These queens bounties have essentially gotten rid of the grind for legendaries, I don't know how I feel about that seen as I put in a lot of hours to get mine. Did one there, got sent to the very first mission, completed it and got a legendary in 5 minutes.

Personally I think we should have a feedback thread with a poll on whether or not either one of you or Gandalph have to change your avatar. I get so confused....

They're random level 24 story missions with 3 modifiers.

Some are more tough than others, but you can just re-roll the mission you get until you find a nice quick 1.

It all finishes Oct 6th I believe.

Got put in a control match with probably the most oblivious team ever. Three people on one point while I was in turret overlooking, all three wander off before the point is even neutralised :pac:

Yeah I never see Avatars on this site, or signatures, I have no idea why, the layout does look different on my phone though and i can see avatars then.... It makes me wonder sometimes, here it looks like it did 10 years ago

Now i might sound stupid saying this but here i go. Make sure you read the box b4 u buy it. It is an exclusively online game only. No single player offline or anything like that. So be careful b4 u buy it.

My friend bought it and didnt rtealise until a few days after that it is only online play. Had a good laugh at his expence.

Good game though.

Has anyone ranked up to a vanguard rep of 3? Are you guaranteed a legendary gun?

I haven't had much luck with that bo**ox of a cryptarch :pac:

Yep got a legendary sniper at rank 3. Just getting the marks together for the Autorifle now. Have had no luck with drops myself, all for different classes and no primary weapons!

When in a Party on PS4 is it possible to turn the game volume down? It is hard to hear chat over the sound of the game.

Looks like I'll be giving them a miss so, still on a lowly 10 and not much time to level up. Im gueasing they will be adding more similar missons in time will they?

I got a legendary auto rifle earlier for making vanguard rep 3, it's called Doctor Nope :pac: I will start upgrading it tonight, I have plenty of ascendant energy which is what you need for that I think. I also got a mote of light and more ascendant energy. I haven't tried the Queens bounties yet but I heard you are guaranteed legendaries when completing them. What rank do you need to be to do them, I assume over 20?

If using a headset yeah, my PX4's have a slider for game audio and buttons for chat audio. You can also adjust what audio, just chat or all, gets sent to the headphones from the pad in device options.

On the party screen when you're in the party there'll be an icon on the bottom left that brings you into the audio output settings and you can change the balance between party and game audio.

When you go to your destination screen pick the moon and you should see a new strike beside the old strike, it will be pulsing with an ecclamation mark. This is the one that needs to be done, it is level 26.

Just got an email from amazon. My Destiny Ltd Edition has just been dispatched should have it for Friday. Here to a lost weekend.
£80 sterling is the most I've ever paid for a game. God I hope I like it!!
