Disappointed that the grind for next season in Destiny is moon weapons that we just grinded and got sunset. Plus they didn’t bring back Loud Lullaby. We also get Dreaming City again, but no Horrors Least. How many seasons are we going to go with no 540 rpm pulse rifles? Glad I saved a Horrors and Outlast.

My man. 540 RPM pulse rifles were the best weapons in the game.
 
At this point we were like F’ it. Smash me big daddy!View attachment 38502

PvP is either a curb stomp or a good match, rarely do I have one that isn't either of those two.

I played on Convergence yesterday with a 5 stack who refused to cap points. We just swept the map, back and forth, and destroyed the other team. It was so bad I stood at B using the Cooking emote while the team ran back and forth, smashing everyone.

The Hawkmoon catalyst mission is out. Props to the guys beating that one solo, but the catalyst is nasty and worth finding a fireteam to run it with you.
 
I've been playing a bit of R6 Seige lately. I like the destructible environment amd because it's school holidays here and AUS it's easy enough to wind up teenagers when they start taking it seriously and give you shit when you die... Usually after them too and in unranked games. One kid tk'd me after I ignored him giving instructions to me and demanded a count of some device I had so I shotgunned him in the head next round which made him wild. I have stories like this for days with this game.
 
I just downloaded Assassins' Creed: Valhalla. Can't wait to start it this weekend.

Anyone played it yet?
I've got maybe 30 hours in. It's gorgeous, it's pretty fun once you get out of the prologue (which is loong) and some new gameplay elements start to open up. But it is very long, and typifies everything people love and hate about open world games. My play was interrupted when someone wanted to put something else on the xbone; and I rarely find myself missing it.

All that to say - it's fun. Being a viking is pretty f'ing rad. It looks and sounds great (though you can roll your own soundtrack with some metal-pagan or whatever you call the modern viking music). It'll suck you in. Be prepared to lose a chunk of your life. But it sure isn't perfect, and from a game design or ludology standpoint, it's a poor to middling game. I sure had fun during that time though!
 
Yes, I only fly VR in Elite. VR in NMS is nice too, but it takes some getting used to as you do everything with VR controllers, vs Elite where it's VR for visuals and HOTAS for the killing.

Have you played DCS or the new MS flight sim?

I’m looking into getting Star Wars squadrons, has anyone played that?

Played a little bit today and got my ship back and sailed home....I do like the gameplay, takes a bit getting use to to, but it is fun!

Yep, either 99 to 20 or a 10 point max difference. I picked up 3 Hawks (didn’t pick the quest up from Crow so you can farm unlimited, one drop per run) but I am having a hard time putting Ace away. So far I got surplus, killing wind, and eye of the storm. I really want rangefinder to compete closer with Ace and Momento Mori up range wise or my Steady Hands.

I'm looking for textured grip, rangefinder or opening shot, w/ small bore. I need to LFG for a team to run it w/ Hawkmoon equipped for the Warden title.
 
I feel like I'm missing something in Destiny 2. Current Light Level is around 1212 and the Prophecy Dungeon straight up kicks my ass. I need to read up on how to modify gear because I have not done that at all thinking I'd keep leveling up. I've been stuck at this level now for a while.

Do quests matter any more or should I focus just on strikes/raids?
