Went with this! Thanks!

I got one of Amazon a wile back (for a bit more money) on the recommendations of people here. The sound quality is brilliant, imo. Apparently you will need to be careful taking it off and putting it on as the plastic hinges are prone to breaking. Mine are fine, but I have been careful due to people saying this previously.

I was delighted with the quality and feel of them.

I've even taken to muting the TV and listening to the game audio via the headphones as I actually find the quality (and direction) to be better; and my TV is a very good quality TV.

Hey guys.
Wondering if there's any active ps3 players around. Bought the game about 2 months ago and blitz'ed through the content on my lock. Thing is though I spent 6 weeks trying to get the taken wars quests done due to what I'm guessing was low population servers.

I simply could never get the events done due to not being able to solo the guy in the rocketyard and not being able to catch the lieutenants quick enough on mars.
Got it all done now though and I'm at 292 light with no one to raid with.

I don't have a decent headset atm but I can plug some cheap crap in for now. So if there are any active ps3 players around add Carbiens and gimme an invite I'd love to do some endgame over the weekend.

Otherwise I'm just gonna level my alts and wait to see if Santa brings a ps4. A doubtful scenario since im 32.....


Edit- I should add I'm New to consoles. Consumate pc gamer. So I'm getting used the psn id's and the like. Let me know if i need to ad more info.

Ah now, age has no bearing on what Santa might bring you. You may have to pay him for it, but hey....

Anywhooo, In relation to PS3 players, I think you'll be out of luck, here anyway, as most, if not all, of the Sony Ponies here are on the 4. (If only we had a subforum.....)

Might I suggest destinylfg.net or the100.io. Feel free to join the clan anyway, and set as Playstation, but as I said, I think the boards community is mostly PS4 and XBox 1.

If only indeed, a little gentle nudge to those that havent done so already but click the link in my sig and add a +1.

I thought the point of the headphones was to more comfortably hear and speak to the other people I am playing with at the time...

And listen to the game. You're not supposed to wear headphones and have game sound coming out of your tv

Short answer would be I think we have about 3 PS3 players out of 190.

So unfortunately we cannot offer much support.

But when you get a PS4, we'll be here to help

That's how you should do it, otherwise the actual headset and acting as ear-muffs preventing the TV sound coming through, also people with TV sound on are the devil when you're in a Party.... only slightly behind Turtle Beach users (with their permanent buzzing and cutting in and out)

Yeah now I did notice when I was in Cosmodrome the other day and when the taken were spawning in if they spawned in right on top of me then it cut out for a second.

That's the game, not your headset, it's when there are too many "Particle Effects" happening at once, happened A LOT during the Skolas fight in PoE

Really need some exotic 310 boots. At least the Titan / Hunter will have a chance once they introduce the Y1 exotics.

Thinking the 30 (approx) of us who have completed (at least most of) Hard Mode, could do some Sherpaing this weekend.

If we all take 2 newbies it should be very manageable and would benefit the clan in the long run.

Players with Normal mode completions will help us fill up Raid groups.

And we won't have people out of their depth next week for Hard Mode (when the dedicated chat will be binned)

Even just bringing 8 or 10 players through Normal or Hard (even just up to Oryx) would be a big help and widen the net for future runs.

I'm not really talking about Hard Oryx himself at all, pretty much everything bar that (full normal mode, Hard mode up to Oryx)

I would hope (IN MY HUMBLE OPINION) that players would have 2 or 3 Normal Mode Oryx kill and be 310 before trying Hard Oryx.

And yeah, I like to sherpa those less fortunate, so shoot me :P

Probably won't be able to help with this.

Might be able to do some raiding tonight but off to the cinema tomorrow night so won't be on much tomorrow night (or at least not at useful times).

If anything is happening Sunday night I'd be well up for it though.

Well Hard Priest + Gol + Sisters has enough different with the slightly altered mechanics and the whole "Don't freaking die or it's 90% a wipe" to be tough enough forsome.

Plus you can do Hard up to Oryx at 305 or thereabouts
