Destiny – Suros Regime

Posted on 26/10/2014 Written by gospvg

This blog is rapidly turning into a Destiny Diary. At the moment I'm not really playing anything else (except PMG Ghost Recon & Borderlands Pre Sequel on local co-op).

After pushing my luck & gaming Mon to Thu last week, the boss put her foot down & said no to gaming on Friday so I could not continue the Raid effort.

It's a shame that the Raid resets every Tuesday, the time pressure to complete the raid in a week is just too much & difficult to commit. So for now I'm out of any future raids until I've upgraded my weapons & armour.

Xur arrived on Friday & had an exotic assault rifle Suros Regime to sell. Because you can only equip one exotic weapon at any time I wanted that to be the primary weapon. I've got a legendary scout rifle but I'm a 'Spray & Pray' type of player so Assault Rifle is perfect for me.

I could do with a nice legendary sniper rifle to complete my arsenal and I've also got my exotic bounty to complete for Bad Juju. I completed the 25/25 strike missions yesterday & then had to run around the tower speaking to the gunsmith, vanguards & even Xur. Now the last section of my bounty needs me to play the crucible and get 10.000 points :(

Sad face because I don't really enjoy PvP, I suck at multi-player but maybe by forcing me to play via the bounty I might enjoy the experience.

So Destiny targets for next week is to try & complete the exotic bounty. Collect enough ascendant energy/shards to continue upgrading weapons & armour to advance to level 29.

Destiny – Jump, Jump a little higher !!

Posted on 24/10/2014 Written by gospvg

A mixture of old & a couple of new raiders inc Hakk managed to take down the Templar with ease yesterday before we ventured through the Labyrinth, I was just waiting for a fire-breathing dragon to appear & Gandolf to shout 'You shall not pass".

Then there is an annoying jumping a chasm section which took me forever to do, stupid annoying kept on failing to make the last jump.

We managed to loot some chests along the way but I did not get anything decent, other players were rewarded with 'Patience & Time' Sniper Rifle & 'Hawkmoon' Handgun.

Arriving at the last fight we gave it a few attempts but truthfully by then we were tired & called it a night.

Hopefully this evening we can tackle the final boss & complete the Vault of Glass.

Destiny – Vault of Concrete

Posted on 22/10/2014 Written by gospvg

Team NOOB from RLLMUK (Soi, Stebbo, SuperMBo, Soo Denim, Funtime Dave pipped Billy to the post & awesome me) attempted the Vault of Glass?! More like Vault of Concrete !!

It is hard, very hard !!

It took us an hour to get past the first stage where you need to activate three plates to grow the spire to shoot it's beam to unlock the door. The enemies kept respawning & we kept on dying. Thankfully after this we got treated to our first chest reward, some ascendant shards.

The next stage is very tough first you need to defend some pillars of light from sacrificing vex. The difficulty then ramps up even further when you have mere seconds to destroy yellow oracles that randomly spawn across the map. There is no rest, you now have to start to attack the Templar (main boss) whilst also killing oracles & harpies. If you do not do this section quickly enough the Templar 'enrages' and spawns more enemies which ultimately leads to your death.

It's tough, the raid is very tough. Maybe even too tough.

New Game – Borderlands Pre Sequel

Posted on 20/10/2014 Written by gospvg

Started this on local co-op with my daughter, she went for the Nisha character & I went for Wilhelm.

It took us a while to get familiar with the controls once again & once I managed to find an assault rifle it was business as usual.

I hate the addition of an Oxygen meter, it's just another bar to keep an eye on in the heat of battle.

It does feel like an expansion pack & is obviously a cash-in before the 360/PS3 generation of consoles are consigned to history.

Once the 'Claptrap Boys' have completed Ghost Recon we will be finishing our amazing run of PMG (Planned Multi-player Gaming) games which started in 2010 with Borderlands & will finish with this Pre Sequel game playing as Claptraps.

Lost Cities – Complete Set

Posted on 20/10/2014 Written by gospvg

Managed to get a full set of all the numbers in a recent game of Lost Cities.

Shame I did not get more coin cards to apply to the colour.

Still a great game, even though there are Game Center issues with iOS 8 (which is why I have not updated, I'm still on iOS 7).
