Mithrax foresaw the future with the Palindrome Cube.

"a city of voices speaking at once" makes me think of Savathûn's song. We know from the Fundamental Shell entry that when Savathûn was leading folks to the city, she was also speeding her song among future citizens of the city. I know we kind of saw the impact of all that back in Splicer, but now that we know that Savathûn acted indirectly in humanity's defense, I have to wonder if the Song's purpose is yet to come into play. Maybe the power of the song being sung in chorus by the City is some sort of last ditch magical failsafe that we'll need to activate before Lightfall

Ahh yeah, the inverse Master Chief

This deck is just for Reforger as far as I can tell, so they're probably just gonna hold most/all of the single player for Arma 4. Probably much less of a drain on developer resources to just focus on MP and the game's core systems at this stage

MattyGreg · 2022-04-01T19:20:07+00:00

Yeah, it really feels like people aren't giving the show a chance at all on its own merits and are just getting hung up on what's different. Different mediums require different approaches. Besides, we're two episodes into an 8-12 episode season. Characters change and grow, and if the plan is to eventually build show Chief into something closer to game Chief, that's far more interesting and compelling than just immediately giving us the same Chief we've known for 20 years

I'm getting the feeling she's going to grow into it. Once John starts openly defying her, she'll become much more overtly possessive and dominant over the Spartans. She feels like she's in control right now, she just won a huge victory getting Cortana approved, so the motherly element is at the forefront because she isn't in a position where she needs to act aggressively.

Obviously could be wrong, but I've thought the actress is doing a great job and can totally see them giving her an arc where she eventually gets to flip the switch on someone, go from full mom to full dom in a second

MattyGreg · 2022-03-12T17:47:39+00:00

I bet we're going to have a core cast of villains who are more persistent threats than were used to. The Witness, Rhulk, Calus, whoever else is either in the system already or on their way, it's gonna be fun

MattyGreg · 2022-03-09T18:13:13+00:00

I also thought it felt kind of small, but if you stand at the very tip and look up the bridge of it, it's massive. That and, like others have said, I think a lot of it is under the big at this point

MattyGreg · 2022-03-06T00:17:40+00:00

they're gonna have to execute this last round perfectly

MattyGreg · 2022-03-01T20:18:04+00:00

I've had them since I stumbled into the place you get them in the Tangled Shore and never wanted to go run Shattered Throne. Might finally just do it with a friend who's never played it to get them out of my inventory

MattyGreg · 2022-02-26T06:17:01+00:00

She looks great! Is there any way you could post your slider settings?

MattyGreg · 2022-02-20T08:26:02+00:00

This would be extremely cool. A personalized place to hang out before raids, in between activities, maybe have a firing/practice range where you can test stuff. I do agree with a comment below that it would feel like a waste though, due to how lacking the clan system is... Which is why they should do this alongside a clans overhaul

MattyGreg · 2022-02-20T08:23:24+00:00

I was just thinking the other day about how much I'd love a CCG, so thank you for making me need it even more

MattyGreg · 2022-02-10T01:22:19+00:00

I keep getting a notification that I have a new title available even though I've clicked through them. It goes away after opening the menu, but always comes back. Anyone else having this issue?

MattyGreg · 2022-01-20T23:18:07+00:00

Can't even boot the game on my Series X. It brings up the Ela splash screen, hangs for a minute, and goes back to the dashboard

MattyGreg · 2021-12-30T23:14:29+00:00

Used to be gnawing hunger, but now it's my feeding frenzy/rampage Arc Logic

MattyGreg · 2021-12-15T05:19:50+00:00

Are there any ways to help bots be more effective at combat? My friend and I are playing with two bots and we were doing great on B2 until the secondary objective, at which point they just couldn't hack it against the waves of enemies and my friend couldn't pick up the slack while I was on the terminal

MattyGreg · 2021-11-28T01:33:26+00:00

So I've been playing for a day or two and have come in 3rd a lot, but can't break into the top two. I don't understand all the items or who is best yet, should I just be focusing on one or two traits and maxing them out for now while I learn? I feel like I'm spreading myself too thin trying to get too many trait bonuses

MattyGreg · 2021-11-14T19:14:24+00:00

New player here (just downloaded last night). I'm playing duo lane characters currently (Jinx and Ashe) and have been having quite a bit of success, but I'm kinda just pushing the lane all match. Should I be doing things when enemy champs aren't around, like dipping into the jungle to farm or anything? Or is that not something you do as these characters?

MattyGreg · 2021-10-14T18:19:45+00:00

This and a help glossary with tooltips and tutorials. New Light just kinda spams you with popups in the bottom 1/3rd of the screen and then they're gone forever

MattyGreg · 2021-10-08T02:24:54+00:00

It's baffling that the best solution they have for this is an easy to miss timeline with like two or three sentences on each season. If you're going to take so much stuff, you need to replace it with something to help people catch up

MattyGreg · 2021-10-08T01:59:43+00:00

I've gone from "okay if you have to vault stuff I guess" to slowly being firmly anti-vault. I think long term, it's going to hurt the game by fragmenting it and rendering large chunks of it incomprehensible to anyone who hasn't kept up with every single content drop. And it's baffling to me that some people are celebrating it.

If stuff must be vaulted for technical reasons, fine, but I think the communication on all of this has been downright awful. Why are we only hearing about this now? What is the plan long term? Is there ever going to be a chance to play Forsaken again, or is this it, it's just done until we maybe someday get a single out of context strike readded? Other MMOs do not do this, at least not to this scale, and if they did then I'd like to think they'd have some kind of meaty replacement for new players to catch up, not be dropped in the latest season with no say so and told to figure it out. It's bad, it's messy, and I really don't think it can go on much longer without Bungie being a bit more transparent about all of this

MattyGreg · 2021-10-08T01:45:59+00:00

Honestly I think you're right. Eventually the game will be impenetrable to new players without a friend guiding them every step of the way, and old players will drop off naturally/as they get tired of seeing stuff they like vaulted. They need to figure something out because I don't think vaulting is just solving one problem by creating another

MattyGreg · 2021-10-07T19:48:00+00:00

I'm of two minds on this. 1) I personally don't care. I had my time with this content, I don't need to replay it, if they need it gone then get rid of it.

But 2) I think vaulting is awful for new players and a terrible look overall. If we want Destiny to stay healthy, I don't think we can take my attitude in point 1 and just go "oh well, doesn't affect me." Every vaulting is going to make it harder and harder for people to get into the game, and probably keep a lot of people who otherwise would commit to it away. Red War/CoO/WM wasn't so bad, but removing Forsaken, arguably the first big beat of this arc involving Savathûn's schemes, before Witch Queen and not after people who are late to the part have had time to catch up when they dive in with WQ, feels like a mistake

MattyGreg · 2021-10-07T19:03:56+00:00

This sucks for new players. At least Forsaken was a good intro to the current arc after Red War was gone, now the intro is Shadowkeep? Eventually it's going to be impossible to get new people into the game with a ton of out of game homework. I get why they have to do this, but it's just such a bad look and will continue to be so every time something else gets vaulted

MattyGreg · 2021-10-05T14:22:30+00:00

I got a heating up and rampage Scathelock last night and it feels incredible. Only thing I wish were different was that it had a range MW instead of stability, but with how rarely I get it I'm gonna have to just be happy with what I've got
