Destiny 2: Lightfall

[pledge]

I'm on a D2 break after playing far too much PvP to complete Recluse and Luna's Howl, but the trailer has be excited to get back in next week. Datto's video I glanced at but there's already enough hype without giving streamers that much early access.

Death to bullet points. I could barely read that TWAB.

[Gorf King]

Another (very) spoilery video from Datto: playthrough of a new Nightfall, in a new area, with a new exotic weapon.

Um, no thanks.

[lewismistreated]

Speaking as someone who was never, ever going to be anywhere near good enough at PvP to get Recluse, I for one welcome our new Huckleberry overlords.

 

Shame that they broke the neck of... Breakneck though. Didn't need to go out like that.

I’m in on PS4 but where did the music go? D1 has never been topped for soundtrack. 

 

 

[moosegrinder]

I need some to explain something like I'm a 5 year old. On Xbox me and my OH bought Destiny 2 and all the expansions up to and including Forsaken on her account. Now I'm looking at Shadowkeep and thought I may as well buy the 50 quid one on my account. However it says nothing about Forsaken being included with it. Does anyone know why this is? Should we just play it safe and buy Shadowkeep on her account?

 

It technically shouldn't matter because of the game sharing thing, I'm just trying to get it straight in my head.

[Gorf King]

That's because Forsaken doesn't come with Shadowkeep. You'd need to buy it separately (but if you did, it'd come with the full season pass for Year 2).

 

I suppose at some point in the future it might get bundled in, in some new edition. But if buying now you should do it on your partner's account.

[moosegrinder]

Good enough for me, cheers Gorf.

Eh, D2 and the expansions all had amazing music.

[PK]

Boy am I glad I played 40 games of fucking Gambit

[moosegrinder]

I've no idea how to even start the quests to get most of these exotics. I should google them, really.

[alex3d]

Will get into this once again (from a technical point of view I'm quite relieved as the menu lags and other technical problems of Borderlands 3 started to get on my nerves). Similar to @lewismistreated I've never been great in D2.

[Shimmyhill]

Just a heads up for those getting the deluxe dlc... ShopTo are doing £50 credit for £41.85 at the moment!

So existing Forsaken players will automatically get the Year 2 season pass?

Yes. In fact, you should already have access to it:

 A bit late to this, but I just played through the Forsaken campaign intro mission, my god that music is phenomenal, much like all the music in this game. I am looking forward to this new moon expansion.

Woohoo, I was just about to post a question about whether the download for the update was coming today!

 

[FlowerOfInfinity]

No joke, just had to delete stuff from my hard drive to download this.

 

Will be great to try out the first major thing that's all their own direction though. All those damage increases in PVE should be really fun to try out tomorrow

[pledge]

After the install you can listen to new music on the splash screen. They also uploaded 19 tracks to YouTube

[Lyrical Donut]

Patch notes. Lots of patch notes:

Oh. So buying it on my OHs account means I don't get the season pass. Bugger.

You should do, but you'll need to install it manually in the Game Management screen.

Feels good to be able to shoot things and them not die instantly.

[moosegrinder]

I've got the annual pass I assume but not the actual season pass that gives you the extra bits when you level them up. I'm pretty sure everything's installed. I'll check again.

 

[pledge]

On the new Seasons tab you should have a tick showing season pass active.

[Shimmyhill]

Trying to play this on the official ps4 remote play app and the touchpad does nothing on the pad or the onscreen button for it, I can’t leave the tower....

Reports of the premium track not unlocking for some people. Bungie has suspended Silver transactions so obviously some buggy weirdness going on.
