A lot of people went back to D1.
I would like to give it another go when I have time. I played D1 awhile back on 360 and liked what I played at the time.

Now mind you this is my first Destiny game, and I understand there are some features missing that were in the the first game, but I think the games excellent. I think these days gamers are alittle entitled and expect far too much out of games. People want perfect games but will scoff at 4 year development times and release delays. You cant have it both ways.
I bought the season pass lastnight.
I thought of getting the Destiny 1 collection before I bought D2, and I know there is a lot more content in it, but I'm a graphics who're and the comparison videos I watched show a huge upgrade in graphics in D2.
I'm happy with the purchases, which couldn't be said for Sea of Thieves which I had refunded and only play on game pass now.
Just a warning - heroic strikes are bugged and don't give you credit towards the milestone. Since they are now 350 they take a long time to get through and aren't really worth it as they only give 340 engrams at max (even though the activity itself is 350)
Well Escalation protocol is a 380 event and only drops 340 gear too
What they have done is rendered everything irrelevant. Lost Sectors, crucible, Heroic Adventures, Heroic Strikes and Escalation Protocol all drop 340 soft cap gear. So only Trials of the Nine(I think) and raids will increase level after the tiny increase you get from power milestones..milestones that are not a guarenteed increase anymore.
Yep. I honestly can't be asked anymore. Grinding for power level which is no more than a content gate mechanic is just boring. It adds nothing to the game at all.It is incredibly stupid. You basically hit the soft cap right away. I'm pretty much done with the game until next week's reset. The only thing I can do now is grind exotics which seems like those drops got nerfed badly too.
There's really no point in me firing up the game again until Tuesday.
I don't think this is what the casual or hardcore wanted, because I'm pretty sure everyone is already done playing.
PUBG here I come. Got a chicken dinner my first try yesterday on the old map.
That isn't the Sunshot, that is the Crimson.I'm dying to get another Sunshot hand cannon so I can apply the Silver Bullet skin. Freaking sah-weeeet.
So I'm totally confused as to what to do after the soft cap. The people on reddit seem to have no clue the difference between milestones and drops.
Does the nightfall drop anything above 340 once you complete your one weekly milestone? IE is there a point to running it more than just once on a character? Same with the raid?
There isn't that much you can do. It seems the Raids are the best way forward because you have 3 of them and a prestige mode too. Plus you can get plenty of exotics too.
Have no clue on Nightfall. Haven't even done it this week.
I know you can get one powerful engram from the nightfall milestone (and easy too obviously). Supposedly you can then run prestige nightfall once per character and get another (haven't tested that).
Do the raids drop exotics now? I'm thinking they stealth nerfed exotic drops. I have yet to see one new one let alone a masterwork.
Nightfall and Prestige Nightfall are seperate activities. so yeah, you will get hard capped gear from both.
Exotics supposedly still drop regularly in the raids.
You know Exotics don't drop as Masterworks, right? You have to turn them in to masterworks by doing certain activities/goals. Like Vigilance Wing requires you to get wins in the crucible for it to randomly drop the Masterwork Catalyst, which once equipped will give you a task to complete in order to unlock another perk(Full Auto for Vig Wing) or stat boosts like the Crimsons +20 range.
Thanks, I'm still totally confused with this. Granted I've had so little time to play this I just hit the soft cap the other day.
All I know is lowbies need to stop triggering escalation protocol. I'm hearing you can't even touch it until 370.
I did one last night. By accident. I’m only 342. It was hard and I had about 4 or 5 others join it. There is a mission to unlock some weapon where you need to beat it 5 times I think.
Don't even think about escalation protocol until you are at least 370. With the timer on in there's just no way to kill everything in time. As more people jump in I think it just spawns more enemies. So, it isn't like other activities that you can just stack people.
They also tweaked the damage so enemies more powerful than you take a lot less damage. It takes me 2-3 head shots to drop a single thrall.
