Bungie's Destiny Will be Revealed in 5 Days

Mark your calendars for this Sunday, February 17.

by Lucas M. Thomas
February 12, 2013

Yesterday we brought to you the news that a reveal of Bungie's next project, Destiny, was being hinted at for this upcoming Monday, February 18 – an augmented-reality game on the studio's website seemed to be pointing toward that date. Well, we won't have to wait quite that long. It's now been announced that Destiny will be unveiled one day earlier than we thought, on this Sunday, February 17.
An official Facebook page went live today and made that announcement as its first order of business. A Twitter account for the game has also been activated as well.
And if all that isn't enough to get you hyped, have a first look at the game's just-revealed logo as well:

Sorry dude, I played for a bit then got an absolute whore of a headache and had to lay down.

I probably would have been worthless anyway, I've never done any of the raids.

But I'll definitely add you. I'm Smelcolm_Black on PSN.

If you don't already have the destiny companion app, this is even more of a reason to:

Complete game changer as far as saving time.

I locked myself in my office at work and messed with this a bit. You can even split materials so they're not all clumped together.

Edit spelling and terrible wording

The 1.1.1 weapons update is no joke. I was one-shotting void-shielded psions in the nightfall with Swordbreaker shotgun, point blank. Glad they made them useful. Oversoul Edict pulse rifle has a bit more ooomph now too.

jiveturkey · 02-26-2015, 03:52 PM

I've played a bit of crucible today and found that the shotgun range drop off is noticeable but still not much of a problem. I usually saved it for hug range anyway.

I'm seeing more pulse riffles but it seems like they are still loosing to hand cannons and scout riffles a lot of the time. Red Death is a monster though.

Mother****erJones · 02-26-2015, 03:56 PM

I'm glad for the app! Love it.

Played some control this morning and it was a worse experience than anything during Iron Banner. Finally saw the lag people talk about. Was getting shot around corners. Unloading entire clips into people's foreheads at point blank range and doing no damage.

The lag sometimes will make me quit. I like control but when I'm shooting a Titan and he lags and then one hit shoulder charges me I'm done.

Most obvious thing you can see is to go into your inventory, look at the spot where marks are listed, and you'll see a tab just to the right that will show you all the factions and your rank.

Otherwise, some changes to guns and stuff and the inventory app.

keg in kc · 02-26-2015, 06:16 PM

Just tested the vault change. It's as awesome as it sounds.

Chest Rockwell · 02-27-2015, 06:05 AM

Did they nerf sniper range?

I know they nerfed AP (and I just wasted a bunch of VM on an LDR last week...thanks Obama!), but my Icebreaker didn't seem to be reaching things last night it normally does or doing as much damage at longer ranges. Maybe I'm just imagining it?

I was in Crotas end in the middle part with the pillars and the ogre and had no trouble firing all the way across the bridge and hitting him with my IB.

Guardians no longer drop heavy ammunition when killed in PvP
Guardians now drop much less special ammunition when killed in PvP
Completed matches will now award gear with the proper power level
Fixed a bug where there was no audio playing for the bullet that kills them

Event: Iron Banner
Iron Banner playlist now contains smaller maps in rotation
"Focused Aggression" Bounty can now be completed with headshots from Pulse Rifles, Scout Rifles, and Hand Cannons

Items
Fixed an issue in which Xur did not carry exotic engrams in inventory on certain dates

Ammunition consumables will now work if used when player inventory is full
Fixed issues that prevented qualifying players who had deleted their characters from claiming the Tumbler Sparrow from Tess Everis in Tower

User Interface
Character inventory screen now displays faction reputation and weekly mark counters
Players in public spaces will no longer see voice notifications when a player in a matchmade fireteam enter
Players will now see improved notifications when teammates join and depart Team and Fireteam chat channels

Grimoire

Ghost Fragment: Rasputin 2
Ghost Fragment: Hive 4

Technical
DLC and Patch systems have been improved
Xbox One upsell from trial version to full version no longer makes you leave the game
Improved networking resilience to packet reordering
Networking improvements for certain routers

Edit
Bug was introduced in 1.1.1 patch that caused the Vex Mythoclast to spawn with less ammo in the magazine and reserves in PvP
This weapon was affected by overall Fusion Rifle changes because it is treated as a secondary weapon
We intend to correct this issue in a future release

I don't see anything different at all. __________________ My dear girl, there are some things that just aren’t done. Such as, drinking Dom Perignon ’53 above the temperature of 38 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s just as bad as listening to the Beatles without earmuffs.
