Great news. I miss Dagger Raiding. Sucks that it probably won't drop for a few months.

Not that it's any great surprise, but Activision confirmed in their investor call today that Destiny 2 is still coming this year.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Sideshow is finally making the Hunter and Warlock statues. These are so damn cool, but pricey at $200 each

Sideshow sells them but ThreeA Toys is the company that made them. They released the Titan about a year and a half ago.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Official Hot fix notes:

https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Artic...Hotfix---21417

OK, so I played a bit today after the hot fix (no patch this time, just start the game and the update comes that way). Sidearms are already becoming the new Meta. I played a couple of combined arms games for my radiant treasures (got the crappy Trespasser ornament twice today! WTF?) and most were using sidearms. And that's even on those huge maps (Well, I got Skyshock both times). Not a fan of losing special ammo upon death.

Silly that they made Truth a 1 rocket weapon now. No more Tripod.

And they broke a whole bunch of shit by changing the way a bladedancer regens health with their super, it changed pretty much how ALL health regen perks work (Like Red Death for example).

Last week was the first time ever that I didn't log in when Xur was in town. In fact, I played on my second account right after reset last week, and on my main account shortly before reset. Nothing in between. Already done for this week, unless the Daggers are up for a potential reunion tour at some point. Weekend might work for me.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

I got all excited and thought this was an announcement for new updated Raids. Then I noticed the McFarlane logo.



Still buying them though.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Also, if Scott says he's in, let's shoot for a Dagger Reunion tour this Saturday. I'm up for old Raids, current Raid, private matches like Ice had suggested, etc. I just want to run sword at least once. That's my one goal I never accomplished. Let me clarify that. I'd like to run sword in a non-oh shit someone pick up the sword because Scott is dead moment.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

LOL, good catch
I was bothered by the Warlock using a Black Hammer instead of Black Spindle in King's Fall

I gave Todd and his staff plenty of grief on the Spawn message boards in the old days regarding inaccuracies in their NHL SportsPicks line but I'll let these slide

I heard the VOG Titan comes with a Hawkmoon, but it's strictly a US exclusive. Sorry Chase.

No joke, that is my biggest complaint with buying Blu-rays in Canada. I import everything from Amazon.com instead.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

So are we Raiding Saturday? I've already told my wife it's a Destiny Raid night. We only need 3 or 4 to do Crota so we should be good.

If we get Cruz and one more we can run anything.
