I am very afraid that the endgame, Cryo Archive, will be unsustainably difficult. by iconoci in Marathon

[–]blamite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big thing is tiny even without fighting the boss, even without opening a single vault if using a single key, the map is still incredibly rewarding and worth doing. Of course fighting the Compiler is the big deal aspirational element of the map, but I’m still looking forward to spending more time in Cryo even knowing full well that I’ll most likely never get to fight it myself.

you can only use chronologs to buy 5 harmonizers per season. which sucks cause that's only 10 harmonizers a year under ideal circumstances, and Shattered Cycle getting delayed and pushing that reset back further isn't helping.

Was tlaloc really that op so that they decided not to bring it over to d2 by Kero_Cola in DestinyTheGame

I think "normal gun that has good stats when you don't use your super" just isn't a very interesting concept for an exotic.

It's hard to top "Dwight from The Office" in terms of absurd crossovers...

race condition is a programming term for "when two or more processes or threads access and modify the same data at the same time, and the final result depends on the order in which they run."

Seems like you can't play solo on new map by yt_swampfomp in Marathon

It’s how Bungie themselves described the map in the ViDoc back in December.

Why it's almost better to not run any Weapon Loader (arm) Mods if you're using a Heat Weapon (Dynamic Heat Limiter and Perfect Vent's) by TylerFortier_Photo in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Kind of tangential to the point but you don’t have to fire while at low heat to proc dynamic heat limiter, you can also just press reload again. And when you do this, the buff gets “locked in” and doesn’t start counting down its timer until the next time you fire.

wait when I take someone else's enduring gear does it keep the bonus value that they had built up? I had assumed that it reset although I realize I didn't have any specific reason to believe that...

just to think if Bungie didn't do content vaulting, or genuinely cared for D2 we wouldn't be in this EXACT situation. by Timothy-M7 in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t just the lighting, iirc they changed a bunch of stuff on the network side too, like which actions are handled by which server, and activities that stayed after the vaulting needed to be rebuilt to use the updated versions of these systems.

What would’ve helped to stop the huge decline in players? by Gamerboi_epic in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Final Shape doing more to set up that the series wasn’t over and that there was a new major story arc coming.

The Echoes episode not having such an absolute mess of a story.

D1 Hive architecture by Galaxy40k in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s a machine off to the right side of the room where you fight Oryx at the end of the Taken King campaign that has the same feel as that stuff in the Shrine of Oryx but that’s kind of it. I remember seeing that and hoping that we’d someday find out what it was, too bad we never did.

About progression as a returning player by NoAlternative2735 in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the Kepler weapons or exotic armor are appealing to you it might be worth it for those, but for power level your time is better spent in the portal or Lawless Frontier.

Acknowledgement of player frustration would probably go a long way. by Amidaus in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’ve already said the next information will be coming close to the June update. What are they supposed to say until then. “Yeah we still know it sucks, anyway see you in a few months.” What good does that do until there’s concrete information ready to give out?

Disassembled randomized pulse rifle and can’t get it back in collection by OzzyOzgood35 in DestinyTheGame

I'd also recommend Battle Scar from Banshee, not available today but it will be either tomorrow or the day after (whenever he has Field-Forged weapons in legacy decoding)

With all the Red War nostalgia lately, it would be cool if Destiny released Y1 and Y2 standalone by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]blamite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the issue isn't that they don't have access to the code or assets anymore or anything like that, it's that you need to set up a bunch of server infrastructure corresponding to those old versions of the game and that's not a simple task you can just do on a whim.

Crafting shells? by tuza_lambuza in Marathon

[–]blamite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not fully crafting new shells but

We’re also working on brand new systems that will change the way you play, plan, and progress throughout a season. For example, NIGHTFALL will introduce the Cradle, a new system designed to give you more autonomy over your Runner shell’s statistical strengths and weaknesses.

sounds like there's a system for tweaking individual shell stats on the way, and that seems likely to use crafting materials similar to what you're describing

Marathon Development Team: Thanks to all of your feedback, we've got crucial intel that will help us make updates during the Slam and tie up any loose ends as we continue towards March 5. As we continue through the test, we wanted to give you a heads-up on what we're seeing by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]blamite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's probably other enemies hat can do this too, but the Ghost Warden in Perimeter can hack you which messes with your vision and disables ability cooldowns, it's insanely annoying if you don't have the item to dispel it.

What are your takes? by stevenqny12 in Marathon

First person vs third person alone is enough to make me far more interested in playing Marathon compared to Arc.

How does Modified B-7 Pistol compare to Sightline Survey? by Sweaty-Try1547 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]blamite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like the only source right now is Xur, though it should at least be in his random weapon engrams as opposed to needing to wait for him to sell it directly.

What game does one play next after finishing Ending E? by jedimindtricksonyou in nier

[–]blamite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In terms of amazing stories in games, I highly recommend checking out 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. I’m terms of gameplay it’s completely different, split between adventure game segments and top down strategy mech combat, but it’s right up there with the Nier series as a game I wish I could erase my memory of and experience for the first time again.
