    I did it for an hour or two but my preparation has probably gone too far really. I've 4 legendary weapon engrams, enough marks to buy 5 weapons from vendors, a few factions edged and about 30 commendations to hand in to push factions over and get packages. We're all gonna spend all day Tuesday in the bloody tower! Wouldn't mind getting more keys (only have one) but the drop rate is so low and the activity too boring

    I know what you mean, I got 3 keys so far on PS4, they dropped very quickly, however nothing on Xbox so far... and I have done more there than on PS4 :S

    I had done the same, but realised last week that it wouldn't drop til 6pm, so I swapped my days off.

    Ah, unlucky. I took Wed off, so I'll be on for a late session on Tuesday to run through the story a couple of times, run the Strike, then the Nightfall and then PoE.

    We've all been screaming for new content. Here we go!

    Yup - I'll be on from Wednesday about 4pm ... Bring it on!

    That could be perfect Merry. I was planning to binge all day, but the missus took the day off too and we're going to do some house stuff and also enquire about adopting a dog. 4pm sounds good!

    Also, best of luck with your thing bud! ;)

    That was very selfish of her Steve ;) she knew you wanted to sit in a dark room for hours on end and shoot things and here she is making you go out into the light and fresh air :D

    Speaking of which my missus is still onto me to put together a chest of drawers we got soon after moving in. That was August 2013 :D

    It's a balancing act Emmet. She enjoys some games, but not Destiny. I showed her this on the weekend and we had a laugh.

    I nearly ran into some issues on this yesterday. The hoovering is my regular cleaning job in the house, which I'm fine with (she does the bathrooms so happy days). But I was stuck to the couch all day yesterday between Destiny and the football, so it came to about 6pm when I heard the hoover start and though, Whoops! :o But I seem to have gotten away with it as nothing was said over dinner, even when I brought it up.

    The challenge will be this evening as it's my turn to cook and she won't be home until about 9pm. This gives me a decent chunk of time after work, but I need to decide on something to make that's either quick, or can be in the oven for a while without needing too much prep time to begin with.... :D

    Don't forget to go and buy any Vanguard / Crucible / Faction weapons you like the look of this evening before they may/may not be gone forever.

    I'm going to be grinding Marks to get:
    Three Little Words - PR
    Secret Handshake - SG
    Plug One.1 - FR

    Pasta bake. In the oven and forget about it !!

    We should start a Destiny Men's Association Thread (DMAT).

    We can post SGA for fellow destiny players on how to avoid as much responsibility at home, nagging, and stupid family responsibilities as possible. There could also be tips and tricks section for how to get the jobs done at home quicker to allow more destiny time. :D

    I'm now off for the next 2 days:

    Tonight: Grind marks to get some Vendor guns
    Tomorrow day: Pre-DLC Hype and Edging my characters ranks I guess
    Tomorrow evening: Titan Story Mode x 5, Normal Wolves Strike, Nightfall, Weekly, Lvl 32 PoE
    Wednesday day: Warlock and Hunter Story Mode x 5, Nightfall, Weekly, Lvl 32 PoE
    Wednesday evening: Lvl 34 PoE maybe

    Not anymore, but I was for weeks, until I met Gerard patrolling the moon and wondered why I never get invites, now I am online all the time.

    Weird thing is that when I look there are barely 4-5 people playing destiny on Xbox while there are 20-30 on PS4.

    Not that I play with anyone anyway, just like to get in and get out! But now that there is new stuff coming in I will def give it a go again

    Yes, destiny servers are not available is what i get.

    Yeah at 4 exactly for me, I'm guessing they are doing maintenance, some message popped up before it went down but didn't fully read it

    Only for the Vita my Destiny time would be severely curtailed so that's my tip.

    Tip two would be peppa pig (or insert appropriate zombie like viewing here) for the kids.

    If funds allow send other half to spa or wherever else is not in house.

    Alternatively and may seem a bit brash but bear with me here....

    ...

    ......

    ...divorce.

    Ps I wonder how many relationships Destiny has now broken up.

    Probably nowhere near championship manager levels but there's some serious hours going in from people.

    I'm just about to hit 150hours which is small by standards here but a lot for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,752 ✭✭✭Bohrio


    Its back now


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,106 ✭✭✭dar83


    I am guessing if they're pushing a patch it's probably going to nerf the chest cheese...

    Damn it, I was just about to head home and turn it on for a last blast at getting some keys!


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Ah alright, probably about time I took a break anyway.

    Well they did originally say that there were going to be 2 separate patches before HoW landed and this is the 2nd so it makes sense
    I'm just about to hit 150hours which is small by standards here but a lot for me.

    More like:

    Total Time Played (including Tower and Orbit)
    230 hours - 7 minutes
    Active Time Played
    160 hours - 26 minutes

    These small slips of the memory or inconsistencies are the gaming equivalent of hiding a 6-pack of beer cans in the toilet cistern
