  1. I watched Snow White and the Huntsman recently (I'd put it in OK movie thread) because "nothing on TV right now." She wasn't wooden, but her acting was average. Any time it called for her to have a powerful voice, one that is commanding and respectful, it was like listening to a temperamental teen girl. When it wanted her to be melancholy, sure she could handle that, but any kind of action was lost on her character.
  2. On the topic of shotguns being OP... If you ever have Destiny in your PS4 and you look at the Leaderboard for Friends' Crucible Points and Strike Kills, you might notice I'm pretty high up. The Strike Kills at 539 is because I did the Weekly Heroic by myself, which if you got Ice Breaker is very much doable. For Crucible, well... I'm a Hunter, but my style is rather Titan-like. While I can keep my distance, I rather get the job done with a ol' fashion knife to the face.
  3. I'd change my name to something spooky too, but then who'd remember me? Would I remember me? Oh yeah, I never did finish that game.

  4. I think the writing team for The Walking Dead TV series finally understood that people enjoy a good ol' zombie shoot-n-run episode.

      I stopped watching about halfway into season 3 I think.. 3? yea.. worth catching up?

      The season 5 premier is the series best episode by a significant margin, but I'd still wait to see if they can keep this going for a few weeks before you jump back in.

  5. How I got to Rank 2 in Iron Banner, got my cloak, and dropped in because screw getting to Rank 3 with twice the reputation requirement. Not to mention the Legendary Weapons for Iron Banner kinda suck.
  6. You and the entire fandom enjoy that photo. It's the only "fun" image of adult Aang we have! Only thing that bothered me this episode is that Toph is basically wearing her old outfit. My own personal gripe. just thought they'd give us a spin on her old look.
  7. Looks like one of the fan theories was correct, though along with it there's another complication. I'm thinking we're going to learn more about the Titan transformation magic-science at work here.
  8. I only want to add a tidbit as I'm sure we could all look earlier in this thread to see we've come full circle again. I'll never forget when The Wolf Among Us on Windows 8 didn't recognize the Xbox controller. Most users said to download a .dll file, but cautioned it was a bit iffy. Telltales response: download Windows 8.1 for fix. What's my point? Every platform has issues, whether it's a universal limitation or user specific based on performance or components. Deal with it and play your darn vidya gams!
  9. Eh, I'm going to try to find someone again on r/fireteams for the Xyor strike. Two times I had people change their minds, so I decided I'd try to do some Crucible bounties in Iron Banner. I practically gave up in the last match in Iron Banner. I didn't quit, but seeing people literally running pass Control Zones that haven't been captured to run into a group of enemies for slaughtering; it's disheartening. I gave this game a solid month of attention, along with reasonably leveling my non-Raid armor to make Light Level 27.
  10. I play PvP because it's the one thing that varies the most in Destiny. The Queen's Wrath stuff got old fast because all the bounties repeated along with the same three story missions. With no Ascendant Shards to get from the armor after completing Kill Orders, once you had your two pieces of armor, the best you could get was the sniper rifle and a ship through RNG. I got the sniper rifle early on, but didn't see the need to push forward for a ship, so my Kill Orders stacked and stacked. PvP will be the same maps, modes, and etc. However, the other players will keep things interesting, whether it's for the best or for the worst. I recently just learned that with Arc Blade, you can actually push a Titan out of his bubble when attacking. You won't do damage to him until he's outside, but I watched it happen in front of me and even repeated it myself. A bit of a pain, but it helps in Control and (for the moment being) Iron Banner as that's all IR is: Control.
  11. Oh hell yeah I'd jump back into Destiny tonight if it meant Vault of Glass. Otherwise, it would have to be the morning for me tomorrow as I'm working evenings. I'm on Mountain Standard, so I realize this might be late to acknowledge with everyone.
  12. They will so long as you get the NFC adapter or the "NEW" 3DS/3DSXL. I don't think the adapter is coming out just yet, if I recall correctly.
  13. Yesterday was the start of the Iron Banner Limited Event. It's not really worth it if you're curious. Supposedly you won't get any RNG event armor or weapons until you're Rank 2 in Iron Banner. (EDIT: Iron Banner Vendor, Lord Saladin, doesn't even sell much with shaders, a class item, and one heavy weapon.) However, getting to Rank 2 is a pain in the ass if you don't have much time or put a high value on what time you spend in video games. The reason being is the main fault with the event, and you may have already read this, is that you don't get any Iron Banner Rep for being on the losing side. When people quit on your side, as there's no incentive to stay beside +10 Crucible/Faction Rep, your fate is sealed and you can only hope to fill the requirements for an Iron Banner Bounty. Yet those Iron Banner Bounties can be tough, but that's the intention. Iron Banner is suppose to be the elite and battle-hardened player's battleground where armor and weapons matter. Except they still don't as you can keep up with higher level players with relatively decent armor and a rare/blue weapon. Good for anyone feeling unprepared, but disappointing for anyone who wanted to put further use to their gear. If you want to do anything this week, as a Hunter, talk to the Speaker because he has Strength of the Pack in stock now. Also has Cosmic Joke, which is another good looking cloak, but Strength of the Pack is killer with the gold/silver color and wolf insignia.
  14. https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqGapgWEoA Yep, Wii U version comes out in "the Americas" on November 21st, whereas Europe will receive it December 5th and Japan December 6th. On the latter two regions the Amiibo figure release a whole week ahead, so can't say I get the logic in selling a temporarily useless figure.
  15. I got to the third wave on my first run, but as soon as four wizards turned the corner to face me, I noped the hell out of the room and went into Orbit. I think in a little bit I'll be online, so as long as we can get Xur (or whatever the name), I'll be good.
  16. Alright, I need help to finish the Thorn bounty. I've been sitting on the final stage of that bounty forever, and even though I have a great Arc damage weapon and good Solar damage weapon, my Solar is through a Machine Gun and hardly any Heavy Ammo drops. The Wizards are a pain in my ass and I think even passing Phogoth on my own is impossible. I think there's a website for Destiny where I can recruit strangers, but I rather have two people, or at least one, from here help me out. Ethan, I saw you moved on to Shadow of Mordor, but maybe you might help with this bounty? It's honestly the only thing making me play Destiny still after a whole month with this one game.
  17. So how'd the Raid go guys? Got amazing loot and destroyed challenging bosses? But, in the end, even with all the amazing treasure, you realized the best treasure of all was teamwork and friendship.
  18. Sorry Ethan, I only got on Destiny real quick to see what Xur had in stock this weekend. I'd love to join the Raid, but work calls so I'll be spending my evening with disgruntled customers and coworkers.

      You're not talking about yourself in the third person again are you??

       

      No but seriously, it's sad that no one got him help when he was a kid if he was screwed up then.

      He was one of those kids that even I punched in the face because of his behavior. Hell, most anyone gave him a punch when he acted up and he'd just laugh about it. Kid had issues, man.

      Holy fuck. Hate rapists...I can think of a few people like that from high school

  20. Other clip from yesterday. If this keeps up, I think Meelo might become a commander in the Air Nation Army.
  21. Well crap, I didn't realize there were some posts here. If you guys were having it tomorrow I would totally be able to jump in. My work schedule is always random with my one weekday off with emphasis on evening shifts.
  22. Can you join up with random people in the Raid, or do you have to organize a Fireteam first? I mean, there isn't matchmaking, but at the same time in story missions and certain strikes you can join up with others. That's really the only thing I haven't done, so after I get my Queen's Wrath cloak, I think I'll shelf Destiny until something new entertains the idea of picking it up again.
  23. I've got a story for you guys. I've been craving an Exotic Handcannon. I finally got the 500 Guardian kills with Void Damage completed for an Exotic Bounty (which some of you know of). It took me an extra match given that I couldn't put the final kill in the previous one, which was highly frustrating. I was a nervous wreck with my Legendary Sniper Rifle, one of the Queen's Wrath exclusives. Two people escaped my range before the second shot (one hit if headshot). A rather clumsy Titan was my final kill and then I could go back to not using a Fusion Rifle. I felt so cheap using it, but also the charge time mechanic started getting on my nerves when people got their shots in before. I went to the Speaker, gave him one of my 28 Motes of Light, then talked to the Vanguard Warlock. The final step is to complete an enhanced version of the Moon Strike. It said there was matchmaking, but I ended up alone. I gave up because there were Arc shields and none of my weapons aside from my grenade and Super could do Arc damage. I ended up repeating another Queen Bounty in my effort to get to Rank 2 for the cool cloak. A Fallen Vandal dropped a Legendary Engram, and as I'm sure most are aware, gotta use them while you can because they'll end up as Rare after the patch. Before claiming the bounty, I did my usual routine of going to the Cryptarch first. Hey, maybe I'll have another Legendary weapon for my character, right? Ah, such low expectations he gives us, yet in our lowest points we are subject to great change. As my head was lowered to face what seemed the usual outcome, a shine of golden light appeared to the right of my screen. HAWKMOON
  24. Just so you guys remember, only Legendary Engrams after the patch takes effect will always give you Legendary. If you thought you'd save any Legendary Engrams for next week, they'll turn into Rare status. So if you were afraid of getting Rare items, you're going to get Rare items anyway. I actually got two Legendary cloaks today, but one is for Dead Orbit when I already bought the cloak for New Monarchy after I get up to Crucible Rank 3. The next one was the Starwinder cloak you can buy with Crucible Marks at Rank 2. I don't particularly care for the design, but it's different from the majority of cloaks I've found. And sorry I didn't join you Ethan. I had just finished a few frustrating bounties and right now, like Strange said some time ago, the Exotic Weapon Bounty I have now wants me to kill Guardians in PvP with Void Damage weapons. Oh, but if you die it takes away 2 points away from the 5 points you get for killing a Guardian. You need 500 points to finish it and after two matches I'm left at 35 points.
  25. From what we can tell in the trailer, and I'm sorry if anyone didn't watch it right now, but Toph is totally going to be Yoda for Korra. The Foggy Swamp reveals her inner fears/demons and must confront them to complete her training!
