To be honest, I just dragged myself through the campaign, the game only gets good post level 20 really (and when you start getting the good stuff!)
The story was disappointing, it feels like they sucked some narrative out so that each mission can be played in isolation and you don't get...
Oh there is no real story to be honest, so if that's what you're looking for I would give up now. You will find initially you like the game, then when you get to 20 you will be like 'now what' and it will either go 1 of 2 ways. Either you will bin it and move onto something else, or you will...
I don't usually use auto rifles - but the Abyss is really good. I use it with the upgrade, whereby you do more damage but a lower fire rate if zoomed in. Coupled with a machine gun and a fusion rifle you can do an incredible amount of damage without reloading!
I would love the word of crota; I...
That's impressive! Think The only bit we sort of cheese is the second bridge. How do you do that bridge on hard? Our method is where you have 1 person on the top of the tower at the back and 1 person who goes across and sits there invisible
That sounds quite futile mate - you need at least 3 people (1 per plate) to do that, and should be 28 at least too!
I got my second character to 20 so now have 2 titans. I did Crota from start to finish in about an hour last night and got some shards/energy and a THIRD set of raid gauntlets, so...
You should definitely get it if you intend to keep playing the game. Essentially if you don't get it, you'll be left behind. It's a bit cheeky but I've definitely got my moneys worth out of it - the new strike and raid are really good and lots of new loot. The bounties you need to do for Eris...
Wow. Just got the new solar auto rifle for doing the raid on hard last night - absolutely amazing. Already overtaken The Thorn as my favourite gun and I've not even unlocked many upgrades for it yet. It's essentially a machine gun but in your primary slot. We all got it by just doing the bridge...
Does anyone else get these glitches on Destiny, or just me?
Firstly, if I play the game then turn it off, often when I re-enter the game it stays on the loading screen forever until I do a full machine restart
Secondly, sometimes when I am in a party it won't let me join party chat (have to...
It was weird - playing Destiny and couldn't connect chat with my party (they were all fine) then finished my game and tried starting a new one and everyone else was fine except me, so was sensible for once and went to bed
Yeah it was a good one! I think the other danger with RPGs is, as you play more of them, your expectations get higher. And, for me anyway, the stories become more and more cliched even though in reality they are much better written and more nuanced
Wow fair play mate! Would be good to do the hard mode with you as still not done that yet. Last night did the raid in under an hour and got a good new solar sniper for my troubles - which makes me feel better about not getting the Icebreaker (although I still want it!)
Also not got the...
Yeah I think Dragon's Dogma was my favourite RPG last gen - with the expansion taken into account too. I never killed Death in the end and just realised I have no traded it in. Incidentally, they have just today announced Dragon's Dogma online - although it will only be released in Asia to begin...
Good preview and interview on this in here today:

Gamecentral is my favourite source of gaming journalism, just a shame the rest of the Metro website is so...
Yeah he is cool - basically if you like someone's personality I generally prefer to have them in my party. I employ a strict 'no nobbers allowed' policy...
Sorry...8 minutes?? From the start of the raid until the end on hard??? If so think you have just beaten the current speed record by about 20 minutes!!!
I've not finished it on hard yet - the people I was playing with weren't very coordinated so just pulled out as wasn't getting anywhere. But...
I disagree - they have purposefully avoided a trading system so a WoW style market doesn't emerge. e.g. people paying other players for items
Also means it's more challenging to get the bits you want, and more rewarding as a result
Course it's not too late! I am level 10 on my second character now, once you get to 20 it's all about equipment - which you can get quite quickly if you do the bounties, raids and weekly missions/nightfall missions
There are lots of helpful communities out there and players always keen to help...
Scutch - your character is always part of your party, in a bit you will get more playable characters in your group and you can choose 3 to take into battle/mission with you. You can then give each character a more specific role, e.g. if you have 2 mages you could make 1 more focussed on...
Yes that's what I will be doing this weekend - have some duplicate raid pieces now for titans so will probably keep both sets for now although will just concentrate on upgrading one set
Disappointingly, there doesn't seem to be anything good to buy from Xur this week, except the exotic boots for...
In about an hour last night, got my new character up to lvl 7 from 2 - mainly from bounties. It is actually quite fun doing all the low end stuff again and seeing the 'level up' message pop onto the screen!
Yeah it's all about the sword bearer and the communication with the people firing rockets at Crota - we were standing on the left shooting the boomers and hive whilst the sword bearer stood on the left stones like you recommended. We switched our sword bearer from a warlock to a titan and was...
We were using gjallahorns but found he was going down so quickly it was hard to coordinate timing with the sword bearer - we were doing 1 hit in the end then a steady stream of primary fire. Doesn't seem that hard compared to Atheon but just need to be tighter with the timings
Well we tried and failed to kill Crota again last night - more due to timing of taking his shield down too quickly/slowly. Bit more experimentation required tonight! Will be on about 10ish, I'll invite you if there are any spaces mate if you want to join?
Yeah you do - to be honest it's a bit of a con for £20, but if you plan on keep playing the game you need to stump up really. I didn't get the pass but think there are 3 more 'standard' DLCs like The Dark Below and one large DLC expansion, which is rumoured to be a 'proper' retail release. To be...
Easiest way now is just to save up vanguard and crucible marks. With 3 pieces and 1 exotic levelled up you can get to 31. Only way you can get to 32 is 3 pieces of Crota raid armour and 1 exotic, or 4 bits of Crota raid armour. I have all the bits of raid armour and several exotic bits, but...
Cheesing = cheating, e.g. finding and using exploits (of which there seem many in Destiny!)
The bridge bit is the bit after all the light beacons and thralls chasing you yeah? If so I find it hard as I get lost and fall down holes all the time!
