GRcade

Only done the opening chapter, but I'm impressed. Lovely visuals, meaty combat, haven't a clue as to what's going on...yep, think I might rather enjoy this.

Unfortunately somewhere in the world is always going to be a bad time.

It'd just be nice if it was somewhere else for a change

Very much so.

TL;dr, one of the in game items contained the symbol of Kekistan, an alt-right/white supremacist symbol. Bungee has stated it was unintentional but it was someone's strawberry floating intent.

Here's the flag for reference. Yes, it's based on the Nazi flag. Obviously.

Campaign done.
Level 20 and Power at 203.

Though y'know the Coldheart pre-order bonus? Got that and it was power 215. Not too bad I thought. Got an Exotic Ingram from Zavala for finishing the campaign. Contained a 222 Coldheart

Due to the downtime yesterday I didn't get a shot at the nightfall. Anyone up for doing the nightfall tonight?

I'm going to give the nightfall a miss this week as it involves jumping and I'm just complete rubbish at jumping and the drill section just pisses me off no end.

I'm at 285 light so I'm raid ready anyway.

I'm 282 and I'm no where near raid ready. I can't settle on a spec, or weapon load out.

You bet I'm a super badass.
It's really not hard to level up in this so I don't expect to be one of the higher level players by the time we raid.
One of the easiest ways to get an amazing weapon is doing the Drang/Sturm quest as it drops 15 level higher than whatever you're at and all it requires is you decode some engrams, do some light grinding in the open world and finally do a short story mission in a fireteam.

Anyway, are we raiding Friday?

Just finished the Mida Multi Tool quest so I now have a half decent selection of exotics.
I still think the Hard light and The Prospector are the most fun to use.

Yeah I’m down for a raid on Friday.

I'd prefer to raid on Friday for sure, but Crimson has the pressure on to do it this evening.

I could give it a go tonight but don't finish work until at least 9 (this could stretch to 10) so start without me and I'll log in to the chat when I get home if you don't mind.
I'm free all Friday which is why that's my preferred option.

I'm up for Friday. Did you have a time in mind?

7.30 but any time is fine with me.
Let's just see what's convenient for everyone.

What jumping bits are you having trouble with in the Nightfall?

All of it as I suck big time .
I'd just drag down any team I'm with and the shame of it all is just nor worth it .

Well clearly I've been outvoted so Friday it is.

I have 4 fireteam medallions but I'm not sure if they work for the read.
