You know why I never really "got into" trials? Zero craic when you are hungover and not as much fun when you're having a few drinks compared to 6 player content.

Then don't be hungover or drinking and you'll be grand :P

Nope. Simply because I'm prioritising games I want to finish 1st

So, first weak attempting to get better at 3s... it has gone as well as I thought it would....

Wins Games Kills Assists Deaths K/d Ka/d Victory
8 24 193 85 201 0.96 1.38 33.33%

Some close matches, some matches we lost but I didn't personally do bad in - and a load of HORRIBLE matches.

away this week now so no more attempts until the weekend. I assume it will be salvage next week though so I might just wait for Skirmish to come back up.

That's not that bad tbh.

Kind of sad to see things happening for the last time like IB. My operation is scheduled for August 1st, so my silent guardian will run that week!

It's a kick in the teeth for the XBox folks, to be getting the remainder of the PS exclusives right before they effectively shut down D1. I don't really mind exclusivity periods, but this 'At least a year' malarky is OTT.

Kind of surprised about the Rank 7 for RoI book, considering theres what? 23/24 Ranks? Also, 10 points over the Grimoire threshold. :cool::cool:

Have to agree. Hopefully, the last IB will be a Mayhem mode (Control?) just to make the last one fun.

The exclusive stuff should have been released when they relaunched the old raids (the taken king stuff at the very least), really poor form from them

Tis the AOT book, not ROI book

Your Right. I read the Owning Rise of Iron bit, and then just equated that with the Rise of Iron book.

The best thing about me moving from D1 to D2 will be that I get to start fresh in PvP and my K/D ratio.

It took me far too long to get good at crucible and finally, in the past 3 months, I can now achieve a >1.00 K/D in almost every game.

Because it took me so long to get good, I would need to play about another 200 matches to get my average up from my current .85 KD.

I'll miss D1 a lot though, unsure if I will go back (I might for the single player stuff) but I guess a vast majority will move on.

I have all the armor, weapons, emblems, ships, shaders, emotes and Grimoire. sad to say goodbye when it'snot on my terms!!

Onwards and upwards.

Can't imagine it was their choice to continue exclusivity - seems the logical explanation is the year two stuff was exclusive until after D2 cable out, which was supposed to be last September. When the sequel got pushed the exclusive dates moved with it.

So clans are remaining capped at 100 - and while I hoped there would be stronger integration of affiliated clans... the alliance feature is actually going completely!

Very disappointed with their poor implementation and integration of clans.

No more Clan 2&3?

they will continue to exist (cause no one else wants to make changes) but there will be no bungie recognition of an alliance between them, which isn't actually a change from current in reality. I wanted either bigger clans or that allied clans would be considered as one clan.

I have a clan 2 tattoo. Any change would make things awkward.

I think its time to tell you we had a powers that be pow wow and are putting you into clan 3.

Yeah the clans thing is a little disappointing, I'm curious to see how the migration will work with the group system on b.net.

There's not even 100 actively playing destiny for months, considering that clans level up etc we should really try and get the active active players into one clan and use clan 2-3 for overfill of filthy casuals.

That was my argument but the consensus was it would be a lot of work for no reason.

I was even thinking from perspective of trophies - doing activities as a clan will likely be a few of them, so I think it would make sense that the people who generally play together should be in the same clan.

The best option might be to leave a few spots open in each clan so people can move around to knock out trophies and the like but then revert back to their original clan. Putting all active people in one clan probably won't do much for the community in general.
