DVD Talk Forum - Bungie

Some interesting stuff about Destiny in this article about Marty O'Donnell winning his legal battles with Bungie.

(No one comes out looking good in these arguments: not Activision, not Bungie, and not O'Donnell.)

When Destiny 2.0.0 update releases, there will be no Weekly or Daily events (Nightfall, Daily Heroic Story, Heroic Strike) available for the week of September 8 - September 14, 2015.

Interesting how it says when 2.0.0 releases. What about the time between reset and patch release?

Might get in one last Nightfall run...

Looks like I did my first and last Nightfall last night. Well, that was fun.

Yeah, I just hate PoE. I think it's boring and takes too long.

Yeah, what were they thinking with PoE? One of the big complains against Destiny was that the whole game was essentially horde-mode in disguise. So instead of addressing that complaint, they make PoE, which is an even more blatant horde-mode.

yeah, their sister publication, I Hate Destiny Daily, did a great in depth article on how Destiny is a blatant rip off of E.T. the video game

LFG'ed 5 PoE's today 3 32's and 2 34's. No Elder Cipher dropped from the chests. Still have 1 more to do tomorrow. Tried Skolas for about 45 minutes, ended in epic failure.

Just so you know they will only drop from level 34 and above PoE runs.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

correct, and they don't drop from the chest ... the drop will come after killing last boss
make sure you go in with an open bounty slot as well

So this information is incorrect?

http://www.destinygamewiki.com/wiki/The_Elder_Cipher

Quote:

This bounty is randomly dropped after defeating the final bosses in level 34 and 35 or be obtained throught level 32 chestThe Prison of Elders Modes. It will not drop from level 28 PoE modes.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

yes, unfortunately that info is incorrect

you can run 32 to get the Queen's Cipher from the large chest but that step follows having the Elder Cipher which will only (randomly) drop after a lvl 34 or 35 final boss kill

http://planetdestiny.com/elder-cipher-guide/

I think part of the confusion is that people use the term Elder Cipher and Queen's Cipher interchangeably
