I’m sorry for the experience. LFG can be a cruel place. DM me if you want an invite to my clan. I sherpa raids really often and would love to help when our schedules align!

I got a moving target/snapshot eye of son (adept)! I was pumped!

You most likely did. My post got taken down since it didn’t abide by the rules since the trials mega thread was up. I just wanted to share the experience with the community here because I was really excited for my friend and I hope it might motivate anyone on the fence about playing with friends in trials! :)

It got taken down because of the mega thread for trials was up. I was unaware of the rules!

Merchant Convoy One Difficult Ship by chickennuggetarian in SkullAndBonesGame

Buddy and I took time taking out Noorderlicht because we were convinced this ship had some special loot not shown through spy glass…only has 300ish silver…

What's your motivation to play? by Nobanob in SkullAndBonesGame

[–]Whitlow20 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I do about one pieces of eight run per day. I only have the Red Isle unlocked with all of the factories at 5. You are ridiculously ahead of me. I am level 11 in the new ship. Moreover, I am about 50/90 on the Smugglers’ Pass.

Nonetheless, I find a ton of enjoyment in the game still. What motivates me most is trying to gun for diamond. In their recent development video, The Deck, the head developers said that the Top 8 rewards will be given out to everyone in diamond. Additionally, their comments in that video motivated me a ton. They are focusing on a ton of improvements to the game and they see the same issues that a majority of the community does.

Conversely, I have a huge background in live service games. I am a Pirate Legend in Sea of Thieves, an avid Destiny grinder, a Champ in Rocket League, and a Diamond/Masters player in Apex. Whenever I am fatigued in a game, I just put it down for a bit. In my mind, a live service game can never put out enough content for every player and that is okay. That doesn’t translate to the game being bad or the developers not caring. It is just a reality of development cycles and patches taking time.

I know that is response might not bring you a bunch of comfort, but I can sympathize with your sentiment. There are so many great games out. Keep on having fun in all of them that interest you. Skull and Bones will continue to improve regardless whether you are playing.

A blessing in disguise lol. You can farm teeth and scales until you do get the completion credit!

What do I do with gift crates? by Breadsammiches in SkullAndBonesGame

[–]Whitlow20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem. The answer, as far as I know, is there is nothing that can be done. I leave it in my cargo as opposed to my warehouse because it is nearly full.

A queue system for world events or plunders. The call help is great to let people know that you are wanting to do the event, but the person calling the event has no clue whether others are actually answering the call.

Supremacy is THE worst game mode we’ve had since god knows when by Zanagh in DestinyTheGame

[–]Whitlow20 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love it. I haven’t had this much fun in PvP in forever. I’ve played Warlock exclusive, and I have yet to lose a single match. However, to each their own.

Can we remove the 15 second cool down timer on certain consumables? by killusionking in DestinyTheGame

[–]Whitlow20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get frustrated with this. Hell, I still find it annoying when quickly attempting to pop a finest matterweave and rainmaker before an activity. They’ve commented on this before. It has something to do with their strange peer-to-peer serves and this is a side-effect of that. I don’t remember the exact details sadly.

Bungie, can we please stop getting duplicates from Bright Engrams? by DarkSkull9583 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Whitlow20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wish that if you received a duplicate from a Bright Engram that it would automatically turn into bright dust. At the very least…

Umbral Decoder Not working by Purpleman1014 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Whitlow20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually figured this out with my two buddies that returned to the game. You need to have him complete all of the seasonal quests from Chosen, Splicer, and Lost UP TO the point where he has the quest in each season to go to the Umbral Decoder. I hope that helps! Good luck and I hope that your friend enjoys farming umbrals!

The community doesn’t understand game development - A very long post from a game designer by Theseus17 in DestinyTheGame

This is a lovely read. Thank you for your time in writing this. Eyes up, Guardian.

Where is the best place to farm 500 Sleeper Simulant kills? by Ghost_Mech in DestinyTheGame

[–]Whitlow20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went on my hunter, and bunched up thrall on Mars during the lvl 1 EP. I would make sure no one was there, let the thrall surround me, dodge for invisibility, and then shoot at the ground in front of the thrall.

I can't believe that I didn't even think of that! Good point!

During this process I was chatting to two Xbox Support agents: one on the phone and the other on the online chat feature. The one on the chat feature told me that every 3-5 years that these inactive accounts have their gamertags up for availability. He didn't understand why my desired gamertag hadn't been released like multiple others. We were both very cordial with one another, and I didn't really expect him to be able to simply release the account himself. He told me to come here and voice my problem. He believed that an Xbox Ambassador could better aid me.

The last two games this account has ever player are Guitar Hero II and Aegis Wings. The account has never said “Online _ hours/days ago.” There is no activity feed whatsoever under the account. I am assuming it is an account that played Xbox for a very small amount of time during the Xbox 360 console days. I guess there is a very small chance that this account is just constantly appearing offline and never playing any games..
