Re: Bungie - Destiny

Apparently I am the only person in the entire fucking world trying to play Elimination right now.

1 of 6 and searching for 10 minutes now. Way to fix that matchmaking Bungie!

Re: Bungie - Destiny

I just got an email for a new emblem. Not sure what the requirements for getting it are.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Let's make that 30 minutes now and still can't get an Elimination game.

Even Bungie thought that was too long and booted me with a Mongoose error, which is basically "matchmaking took too long, try again."

I'm really starting to think that Bungie doesn't want me to play their game.

pretty sure it was just a code that was data mined

I know gold posted it earlier this month (I had already seen the post elsewhere)

The code that gold posted was for the Star Antigen emblem (the tree looking one). This is something else.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

The emblem is the image shown in the Email of the Tower.

I put it on my Warlock for now.

Gave up on Elimination. 40 minutes of no matchmaking was enough. What a fucking joke.

Well they did just release Zone Control. I imagine once that dies down a bit, it might be easier to find a match.

This isn't the first time I've tried this. I tried Elimination a few days ago and the same thing happened. Either nobody is playing, or Bungie's matchmaking is now even worse.

*edit* no marks for second play through
word is you can earn 10 marks x 3 (wins only) per account
might want to try again .... Fight Back, Control The Zones

Re: Bungie - Destiny

I think It is hit or miss to earn marks in crucible. Played Rumble Last night on a new map and got my ass handed to me. none of the promised marks popped. And my character was level 40. Came in last.

It happened to me once before cruz...after I did the daily crucible a second time I got the marks. Then today, the first time I ran the new Control I didn't get my 10 marks either. I haven't run it again yet to see.

Zone control you have to win to get the marks. It was really nice of Bungie to put that little bit of information in the director screen wasn't it?

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Just finished farming spinmetal for my exotic sword. I must say that was the worst thing I ever had to do in this game. It would be nice if they allowed you to skip any quest step if you paid a large amount of glimmer(20,000+)

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Fuck that last mission Fear's Embrace. It's impossible for me to do this on solo. I can't fight this boss without getting overwhelming by bunch of enemies. On top of that you must avoid getting burn in that room. Can't find any hiding spots. I tried this over twenty times and I gave up and quit.
