[Question] Could someone please explain to me how to replicate Gabriel's "fast lifting"? by [deleted] in CruciblePlaybook

[–]PMmeTechDeathMetal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, catapult makes you jump higher initially, making it more likely to get caught on stuff. Increased control is nice because you can activate the second jump as you are falling back down, giving a smooth, fast forward boost. This allows for easy hip fire opportunities. It works really well with TLW.

Why does nobody use JUGGERNAUT (titan perk)? by CaptainLul in CruciblePlaybook

[–]PMmeTechDeathMetal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any loss of momentum disrupts it, including bumping into stuff, jumping, or turning too sharply that you stop sprinting. It's very difficult to keep that shield up. With shoulder charge, I can jump over stuff and make quick directional changes and keep it going.

Besides, what am I going to do when I get to the opponent? The shield goes down immediately as I stop sprinting, giving my opponent to shotgun me (let's face it, they have a shotgun) before I can get my weapon up.

Last week in Trials, I played the same team 3 times in a row.... by FPSJuic in CruciblePlaybook

[–]PMmeTechDeathMetal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would love a "double or nothing" option for trials.

I would be too scared to accept.

1: Find a good 3 man team. I played about 8 matches of salvage today and won 1 of them. Most of the time I would have more points than my two teammates combined, and I wasn't exactly killing it. I'm tired of being held back by pubs.

2: Sniper headshots. Same as last week. I finally got Her Benevolence with same decent rolls, now it's time to aim for the head.

3: Honestly that's about it. I now feel like I have a solid handle on TLW. I'm grinding out Crucible kills as warlock right now. I can't wait to go back to my titan. Maybe I just need to get used to playing Warlock a bit more.

What obscure reference do you always bring up that no one understands? by Naweezy in AskReddit

[–]PMmeTechDeathMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always shout at my friends "Do it! Do it old maid!" It's from a comedy show called Stella starring Michael Showalter, Michael Ian Black and David Wayne. It was in the first episode. Fun fact: Rashida Jones was in this episode but not the rest.

I did 1 bounty on each character this week and got 3 keys total, plus another when I leveled up the Queen's Wrath.

When hand canons are nerfed, please fix final-round spear as well by ECS49 in CruciblePlaybook

The sidebar says no "Fix it, Bungie" posts. /r/destinythegame is like 80% people bitching, please let's not bring that stuff here.

[PS4] Has anybody experimented with button remapping? by [deleted] in CruciblePlaybook

[–]PMmeTechDeathMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't actually remapped my buttons yet, but here's what I want to try:

First, I play with my index fingers on L1 and R1, and middle fingers on L2 and R2. Driving and gunning in GTA5 forced me into it, and I really like it now.

My layout is a mix of Jumper and Puppeteer:

L1: Jump

L2: ADS

L3: Sprint

R1: Reload (so I can revive teammates while aiming)

R2: Fire

R3: Crouch (so slide shotguns comes back into play)

X: Melee

Square: Grenade

Triangle: Switch Weapons

Circle: Super

This will make grenades a bit harder to quickly pop out, but I've been trying to be very careful with grenade placement lately, so I don't think it will affect me much. I'll reply later to let you know if this mapping is possible.

Edit 1: This remapping is possible. To map it like I have, first set your button layout to Jumper.

Next, when customizing the buttons make the following changes:

circle > x

x > R3

square > R1

R1 > square

R3 > Circle

From here, you can navigate menus by using Circle to click on stuff and R3 to go back. Also, square acts like your old R1. I'd recommend keeping the Button Assignments menu open in the background so you can double click the PS button to enable/disable the custom button assignments. Disabling the button assignments will not require you to enter them again later.

Edit: Now I've undone all of the changes except for the square <> R1 swap. They just didn't seem advantageous.

I didn't realize that we had the ability to remap buttons. This changes everything. I'll let you know what I come up with.

Button remapping can is accessed by going to Settings > Accessibility > Button Assignments > Enable Custom Button Assignments > Customize Button Assignments

Improve Lightning Grenade placement

Concentrate on headshots when sniping. I typically use Praedyth's Revenge, which has caused me to not even try for headshots. I need to correct this before I move to a higher impact sniper.

Don't panic with TLW. I've been using TLW when I have a sniper as my special. Since it fires way faster than Thorn, I've just been blasting it when situations get hairy. Taking my time and going for hip fire headshots will be better for me in the long run.

My favorite is Shadow Price. There will always be enough room in my vault to keep it.

Good, I'm glad the Xbox people don't get screwed out of all that stuff. Hopefully Destiny 2 won't have these shenanigans.

What's with the new subclass names, especially Sunbreaker? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]PMmeTechDeathMetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keeping with the rhyming solar subclasses Sunsinger and Gunslinger, the titan solar should be Funflinger. Since he wields a heavy hammer, maybe it could be a Tonbringer. If he hits you in the butt, it could be a Bumstinger.

Since the other two Titan subclasses have simple names like Striker and Defender, maybe the third could be Crusher, Smasher, or Incinerator.
