There's a reason you have to opt-in.  If you don't want to hear other folks, turn it off.  lol

Mad, I didn't realize you started playing again.  What brought you back?


I didn't have much to play lately, and when I was told Xur had the option to upgrade Gjallahorn, it made me jump back in.

Tonight was a hell of a night for me. I literally got all the Hard Mode primary weapon drops between tonight and last night. ALL of them, including the Crux of Crota to upograde to the exotic Necrochasm (which I already had the Eidolon Ally waiting for the upgrade).

I basically got every single hard mode drop in 2 raids, lol. I haven't even received all my armor for any of my 3 characters. And here I am STILL wanting Praedyth's Timepiece. :frowning2: I did get the super elusive Atheon's Eopilogue last week (after ALL our raids, I never had one). Ironically, the next day, I got my first Word of Crota (out of 2), which is a void primary, making Atheon's Epilogue useless now for Nightfalls. :rolleyes:

So from now on, I only really have to do normal, though running on hard yields more chances, I guess.

Man, the Mythoclast is a much better exotic than the Necrochasm. What was Bungie thinking with that weapon? It sucks! hardest thing to get, yet one of the worst raid drops ever.

  You're making me want to pick up the game again and give the DLC a try.

 
If I picked it up again, it would only be to hang out with you guys.  We need another good social game...

  Rainbow Six: Siege isn't out until December. Bah. That'll be an awesome group game.

 
That looks... not my style.  The Division is the next one I'm psyched for.

That's kinda how they keep me into it too... I'm usually playing so I can get something from Xur.

I also had some good drops last night. I found an exotic weapon quest drop randomly on the Archer's Line while trolling for some easy Blades of Crota kills.

Now I'm going to be working on that Bad Juju quest for a while...

Dying Light should be a fun option for you guys to play together and socialize on PS4. You can pretty much play the whole campaign with four people, plus there is the possibility of a fifth player invading the game at night as a zombie.

Edit: Trust me, you'll enjoy yourselves much more than doing the same dreadful things over and over in Destiny.

I'd probably drop every other FPS game when it comes out. It's a shame that Ubisoft is making it. After their last few disasters it will be tough trusting them again.

K...  So it looks like the simple path here is I can get the X2 and use it with any PC or console, but I'm gonna have to buy a xbox chat headset as well because there is no official plain mic, at least if I want one of them to be good.

For the next time MLE updates the guide:  The Oppo PM-3 works with the Boom-pro.  I'll try to hop on Destiny later to test the sound for gaming.

I'm interested to hear your thoughts on the PM-3 for gaming. I've been considering it ever since CanJam. Didn't know it works with the Boom-pro which is a nice bonus.

 
They're definitely more on the "fun" side of the spectrum.  Generous bass and laid back highs make for great music listening but not great sound whoring.  They're also closed so they're not going to give you much of a soundstage; it's pretty decent for a closed, but my regular gaming can is a Q701 and it's not even close.
 
They do sound awesome for music and they're insanely easy to drive (especially for a planar).  There's a loaner program you might want to look into if you're still on the fence.

Buy an Xbox Headset adapter instead and 3.5mm 4 pole splitter and use Your own instead.
