A Spore Nerd Corner

Bungie is teasing a whole lot of information for Destiny. First they're talking about a big expansion later this year. Second they released that in 2017 we are going to be getting the sequel. Originally itw as said that it would hit this year but not so much anymore. Well that's all well and good for later but what about now? Well within a couple months we are due for the next big patch. We haven't had a lot of specifics about the update but we are supposed to see new light levels, new gear and new PvE challenges. Who knows what everything is going to cost but most websites are guessing that the patch is going to be free, patches usually are, and the expansion later this year wont be.

So far in Destiny I've been slowly puttering my way threw the story, only finishing the moon today and I've been messing around with the PvP, which is actually a lot of fun even if I do suck. I figured today would be the day I take the leap into a cooperative mission. In some games group missions go smooth, they get done and everybody has fun. In other games it turns into a continual troll fest, where nothing you do is right and in the end you  just feel miserable. I'm happy to say that my first Strike in Destiny was actually a lot of fun. I decided to run The Summoning Pits first. It's  a little on the short side but was still  a lot of fun. The other two players and I worked well together taking out enemies, and reviving each other when things got out of hand.  The Strike came to an end when we took out the huge boss at the end, which is probably one of the cooler enemies I've seen in a game in awhile. In the end I got a friend request from one of the other pl...

The great debate rages on, to give us a LFR in MMO's. "I just want a chance to do the raids, I don't have friends that do them so give me something that finds me a group for a raid," one group asks. " Just go make some friends and do the raid, stop being anti-social. If they make a raid finder, they'll have to nerf all the content," the other group says. World of Warcraft ended up adding an LFR, some people say that it ruined the game and others love it. Recently Destiny was released and while some of the content will find you a group, but not the raids, which has set the boards ablaze. I look at WoW. Some people say that the LFR option has ruined the entire raiding experience, but really has it?  Has that taken away from the other raiding? NO! Yes the LFR is easy, but you can always get together with your friends, or guildies and run it on a normal difficultly, which is harder to complete, and you'll get different rewards for completing it. Is tha...

I wasn't sure if I was going to pick up Destiny. I only have my PC and a PS3 and to be perfectly honest I'm not sure if I'm even going to go get one of the next gen systems.  Most of the games I want are on the PC in some shape or form and most of them look better on the PC. One of the few games that had me on the fence though was Destiny. I watched my brother play it on the PS4 and everything about it looked amazing, but who wants to buy a next gen game on last seasons system right? Anyway I finally have a way to make up my mind. The beta for Destiny has gone open on all the systems including the PS3, so if you like me are on the fence about the game go download it. I'll let you know what I think of it once I've had a chance to play for awhile.

So Bungie has given us a larger look into the future world of Destiny. Destiny is going to be a shared world FPS.... What's that? Well you know when  your friends just jump into the middle of your world when you're playing Borderlands 2, it's that. Even that is kind of up in the air though, since Bungie didn't let us see any game play.So we know that we aren't going to be having to pay a subscription fee. We also know that it's not going PC. It's only going to be on the consoles, now if that's going to be the systems that are already out or if they mean the next gen systems we don't know. I would assume next gen for the simple reason that on the 20th we are supposed to get release info the ps4. As for the game it's self we know their is going to be three character classes, Titan, Hunters, and Warlocks. The game is going to have tons of gear, weapons, vehicles, heck we're even going to get a spaceship, mmmmmmm spaceship goodness. Right now...
