Make it all 6s or all 4s pve and pvp

Whoooooah, don't misquote me there chief!

I'm pro all 4's, anti 6's but can still see 6's being introduced in PvP

Well yeah I kinda over simplified to be fair but it wouldn't require a re-inventing of the wheel either. The only map so far that I think could work with FOUR extra players might be the raid one. That's a whole other team to accomodate and the maps are already set that you are only ever really roughly two to three corners from another engagement

That map reminds me of the one in D1. catherdal of dusk i think it was. Just basically 2 longish run ups to the middle and everyon fighting it out there for b.

General question - when I go to a planet for a public event I see 5-6 other random people in the Roster - then we complete the public event and I look at the map for the next one on the same planet then fast travel to it. However this seems to get rid of everyone on the Roster and I'm alone doing the next public event. Is this normal? Should I not fast travel?

yeah you are likely to be travelling to another session, same map/location but a different part of the internet, if that makes sense.
Depending on the Public Event I'll often fast travel to the same location I just completed the PE on. Sometimes you run into the same PE immediately that is being completed in that space.

ginger_hammer

ok thanks - so the new session can have other players already in it? Whenever I fast travel the new session always seems to only have me in it.

gimli2112

yeah it can have other players in it. I've launched in on my own and then people joined up. If you're travelling straight after a public event you can be the first one there.


Solo Public Events is seriously more painful than solo PvP imo

I'd prefer if they made all the PvE stuff in 4's to be honest, it's the differing sizes that bugs me the most.

Gave up going Solo on public events, I just keep fast traveling back into the same area hopefully to land in with a group. If not I just move onto the next one.

Yeah, each Vendor is on a 30 min Power Level Rotation.

Some of the public events are easy to pull of solo, even on heroic. And others are an absolute nightmare!

Dismantling legendary shaders used to give bright dust but now only glimmer?

depends which ones. The ones you get from the vendor for bright engrams definitely give dust, most of the others give glimmer

Is there any way to check how many hours I've played D2? There used to be in the app for D1 but can't find anything now.

Haven't really used any mods yet. Is the only difference between the purples and blues the +5 stat, or are the cool downs faster with a purple?

Generic Dreadhead

Just the +5 Power Level afaik

Holeee crap... 1,414 hours on D1
Only 52 hours on D2.

Says it all really on the playability of D2.. I don't even bother logging on most days now. A shame.

1,414 hours on D1 though.. Thats 59 days playing 24 hours a day non stop.

Possibility of PoE making a Return.

Blew my mind when I read Lord Shaxx was the same person as Morgan from TWD.

The least appealing and well received Destiny 1 content....why? Why would it make a return?

Would have to be linked to the Reef though, which should surely mean that all those related characters would return... with a story?

The Queen, her brother and Eris all linked via TTK and pre-D2 grimoire. I hope when they return, that they return with an interesting and investing story arc - as well as some fun activities to play. Could be part of the Osiris DLC - given Trials of Osiris (and Brother Vance) were Reef related activities.

wexdevil

Cozmo has already stated there is no plans for its return. Thats just leftovers in the api...just dust and echos

Danced too soon my friend.

Well, we didn't ask for it but we got it!!
This week's Nightfall is Exodus Crash.

A f***ing strike on a timer where the boss seems to disappear for minutes at a time. I think I hate this NF more then any other activity in the game.

My name is URL

Think I've done 2 nightfalls since launch

Could not be arsed whatsoever
