According to the Bungie gamescom schedule there will be a group of peasants playing the game - Generic won't be impressed by that!

No Broman?

Makes sense - get community players to play the new crucible mode/features - to show it off.

I still remember the PoE stream reveal and the hearing test I booked afterwards.

It's Bromigul, silence his screams!

HYPE HYPE HYPE!

Private match making - announced right off the bat.

sniper_samurai

Private matchmaking confirmed.
New Exotic LMG called Nemesis Star
First RoI Iron Banner is Supremacy.
Appears to be a slight ui change to the radar, function remains identical.

Stuck in work. This eases the pain.

Hey! That guy is on my friends list!

Boards tournament? :pac:

Mitch Connor

Private matches not looking that customisable.

Map, game type, light level enablement - seemed to be the main ones. Didn't see anything that indicated being able to pick weapon types, for example.

Mitch Connor

First Rise of Iron "Iron Banner" will be Supremacy.

Mitch Connor

You can kick off a private match on your own - so you will be able to explore the maps in peace.

Guy on stream actually has zero game sense!

Lets sprint straight at a shotgunner to shoot him with my handcannon :pac:

Mitch Connor

the lighting on the new maps looks fantastic.

Private matches available to all on next gen. you don't need rise of iron - though I would assume you won't have access to maps from content you have not bought (they haven't elaborated on the maps point)

Mitch Connor

Clan roster is seemingly in the game with Rise of Iron.

Encouraging people to go "Next Gen" by offering a discount on the RoI collectors edition for having the Last Gen versions is a decent move

The Iron Lord armor (i'm assuming its iron lord - the flaming stuff) looks amazing.

Looks pretty savage alright. Liking that IB Monte Carlo look. Is that a Sleeper Simulant esque Raid scout?

The black one? I put it down as a sniper, cross between SS and the NM one looks wise. It'll sound awesome that's for sure.

I think that might be the effects of an Ornament. It was mentioned in one of the GI articles that one Ornament can make your weapon look SS like.

I saw a pic of the ornaments on the Hawkmoon last night. Does it not take from it's uniqueness to throw a bit of slap on and pimp it up?

Here-in lies the problem. We still don't know the ins and outs of Ornaments. Watched the ViDoc this morning from Gamescon, and yes, on some weapons it was just a colour palette change, yet on Armnour, the Ornaments added flaming stuff and wings and $hit.

I think its actually a pulse, check out this video at 11:17 and you see it firing in burst mode.

Yer man from planet destiny was saying that it was the pulse on his summary video. I like the mini seekers/swarm/yokes that you get for a precision kill with it.

the burst fire side arm looks interesting - "Dead or Alive, you are coming with me".
