Bungie has now reverted what they said about the Collector's Edition DLC. You will now be able to buy the DLC extras (3) Class Specific Emotes, (3) Armor Shaders, and (3) Exotic Class Items with XP Bonuses for $20. Also, veteran players who are at least lvl 30 are getting this stuff: i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/1311966899711611174.jpg |

Iron Banner returns tomorrow. God damnit...
I'm a little surprised they'd have it on the week of the 4th, but then again... Destiny never ceases to disappoint does it?

Since Nolan North has to do every video game voice ever (he's fuckin' taken over TF2 as well...) he's now going to be the replacement voice for "Dinklebot" (aka your ghost) in Destiny. Not only that... He's re-doing all off Dinklage's lines from the original game....  I don't know what the fuck happened, I know people thought he sounded a little uninspired, but this seems fuckin' harsh.... I was ok with the Ghost's voice, personally, even if it wasn't often exciting, but I blame that on the mutilation of the script.... (which there's quite a lot of reassuring proof of - Recent news says that they cut a huge amount of jokes he had). Oh, and I'm definitely no the only one in the comments tired of hearing the same couple voice actors in every game...  Aaanyways, Kotaku grabbed a bunch of bulletpoints from the GameInformer info on the crazy stuff coming in the next expansion. It even seems kind of exciting... for Destiny. But we'll see... kotaku.com/destiny-the-taken-king-sounds-promising-as-hell-1722072935 |

The new Taken King Zone Control mode is all capture point bleed and no kill point contribution. I'm all for supporting point capture over kills, but this seems like kinda much. But we'll see. It's not going to happen (unless it does and manages to end up on Youtube), but it'd be funny to see once a match where everybody is running around and nobody uses their guns.  Hey... maybe this mode will teach players which 2 out of the 3 points are easier to hold on each map.... People are morons... even at high level wall. You have the 2 easier points to hold... don't go for the damn third! Also, enemy spawns are not based on which capture points you have, but by how many players on each team are on what side of the map ("side" being rotating 50/50 around the map mostly). A lot of people don't get this. You can have a friendly spawn on you even if you're near the point you don't have simply because the enemy team currently has more people on the other side of the map and you make it so your team has more people on the side of the map that you want/need to be on. |

Mmm... Not sure if I'm gonna take it. I actually generally prefer to not take leveling boosts. Probably less of an issue for me since I'm only playing 1 class and not the other 2. Streamlined? What?.... Those didn't bother me yet all that much... but it was all the other ridiculous currencies that did. They're gone now kinda, but I still have a weapon for some reason you made extremely difficult to get the old upgrade currency for... lol K.... Same goal as previously... just a different method I guess. Hmm... Oh boy.... Sounds like another lottery... this time perhaps similar to Implants from PS2...  |

2.0 full patch notes www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=13474basically all your stuff has been nerfed instead of having the values of the new gear keep rising... Doesn't that make you feel so great? Unfortunately, it's no different if there was no nerf and they just kept raising the numbers with the new wall. It sucks, but it's inevitable I think. At least... they might be lessening or getting rid of the wall there was before? I mean, maybe not really, but it sounds like it might be more spread out now to more of a straight slope than a rapidly increasing ramp. Because more of your gear effects your overall power and XP alone gets you to the highest level, but... better gear will still give you an advantage at max level, it's just might not be as big of a factor as before? Or it's just hidden and ends up being pretty much the same as before... There's just no "lvl" value that it shows you, just your gear power. Hmm, they made the Titan defender shield more effective. Nolan North is now the voice of the ghost. Here we go...  There's a lot of quest changes. Might also be reason for replaying the previous stuff again. Oh man, the new checklists of pretty much everything (and items) is gonna have me annoyed I bet... "You weren't able to get this last year? You didn't get an exclusive code at a con? Screw you." I hope it's not that bad. They... removed the Tower map droids for some reason... even though they're needed now more than ever? wtf, the green indicators in the Tower have been decreased to a range of 10 meters?.... What is the reason for that other than being a horrible decision? Or am I reading it wrong? The Speaker has new ghosts. The Vanguard Quartermaster will be the new material exchange to get rid of your old crap that isn't going to be used anymore. I hope I don't end up with items that I can't level up again because the old material has now become only acquirable by 1 difficult method. I don't think that's happening yet this time, but I have 1 gun from before the previous update that I can't level up because the only way to get the material now is through something that requires a group... New Mercy Rule for Crucible will end bad matches early. (I kind of question whether I actually like that or not...) Oh god Shaxx does killstreak commentating now!  Depending on how much he does it, I might have to get used to that... Kill notification delay has been reduced (it got kinda bad lately) SKIPABLE CINEMATICS HOLY CRAP! Legendary loot drops are actually increased (I had felt they had gone way down after the last big update). My god... I guess I should have expected an 18GB download.... Looks like I won't be playing today like I was hoping. (plus an unknown Driveclub download) |

Maybe I was in a good mood, but I admit, this made me laugh
