PC almost exclusively these days. The performance on PS4 makes me cry when I go back.
Gotta say, I think I've burnt myself out on this season and won't be loading up daily anymore, but I'll be back for any progress in the exodus/evac quest and for the Solstice of Heroes and Spooky Forest stuff.
Still super-hyped for Beyond Light. I'll be sad to see the old planets go, but I'm buzzing for Europa and Stasis abilities.
I’ve still got Forsaken to finish and will get Shadowkeep.
So for cross saves can you just keep switching back and forth between machines? Do you have the same characters? And does it matter what machine someone else is on? Sorry for all the questions, but have been out the loop for a while.
Aye, you select one profile and that becomes your main - overwriting any others you have. Your newly cross-save enabled profile's progress and all your gear carry over, and if you buy into a season that content carries over too.
The yearly expansions don't though. If you have Forsaken or Shadowkeep on PS4 you'll need to buy them on PC as well to play the campaigns or do the activities there. But again, any gear you get will carry over.
There's no cross play, only cross save. So you can't play on PS4 with someone on PC, but you can jump onto PC and use the same character and pick up where you left off, then go back to PS4 and carry on playing there.
Cheers guys. What happens to the other two characters? Can they not be cross-saved? I’m assuming the newly cross-saved characters retains light level etc.
Sorry, platform-specific profile rather than a single character.
So if you choose PS4 as your main platform for cross-save, your entire PS4 profile including all characters, unlocks, and progress, will overwrite your PC or Xbox profiles if you have them linked.
Edit: I hope that's clear enough, I keep reading it back and shaking my head at the wording.
Nearly hit pinnacle cap. Even did some ugh Trials and got the autorifle's PvP megaroll first try lol. After that, it'll be raids as and when I can assemble my regulars - still need to clear Garden, Spire and Crown. Season very dry, but whatever.
There needs to be a fuckabout unscored endless PvP mode that doesn't rely on setting up private matches. None of the publics are chill enough. Literally impossible to go off-meta and gather info now unless you're already a total lord.
Jumped back into the multiplayer in this. Was going fine, generally, considering how out of touch I am with all the gear and all the buttons. Even got a message from someone saying "I remember that gun! " which was nice/weird.
Graviton Lance makes the absolute best sounds, FWIW.
Somehow we got matched with Destiny megastreamers ZkMushroom and Frostbolt in IB just now. Naturally we pulled out Sweet Business to fuck around while the pair of them carried us entirely.
Back into this a bit now, power level is very low compared to the cap. Booted it up and so many things I couldn’t remember what they were used for and I’m certain upgrades have changed again since I last played.
So I’m jumping into planets and seeing all these pyramids everywhere and I’m like wtf. Then I buy Shadowkeep and the story missions start to explain, but this is where continuity goes out the window. As it’s clear that the pyramids are meant to be hidden so far in the story, but I’ve already done some stuff and they are showing over the planets on the solar system map.
Now I’m grinding to get some armour to get into the keep and you have to get the thingy from a quest, which you take to an alter, but at the alter you need note thingies to be able to craft the armour and those thingies are made of more thingies which are made of materials from the moon. Good old Bungie and the grind.
Good thing popping heads is still as satisfying as ever. That really is the magic of this game. You know you are just being trolled by em, but the feedback loop makes it all go away.
Aye the pyramid ships only arrived with this season, but I'm replaying the vanilla campaign and there they are, dominating the skyline of all the worlds that are going. It is off putting, but I get that they can't flip a switch on these things depending on someone's progress.
I gotta admit I'm a big fan of this whole arrival of the Darkness story beat and I really hope they don't stall it for a year or two, because y'know, they got form.
Yeah, that’s what’s confused me. The pyramid centric expansion seems to be the 2021 one...
I mean, I’m sure they will deal with some parts of it earlier - probably starting in Beyond Light, but I’d put money on the expansions being “Do Q followed by R, followed by S...up to X and Y to get answers!!!!!” followed by a cliffhanger cut to black. Again.
