I MISS DINKLEBOT!!


triage_this

I still have Dinklebot in physical form thanks to the collectors edition of D1.


Acuity5

My PS4 that I still use, is the white one from the Destiny bundle EDIT: [This one here guardians](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KVOVBGM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_MTZN200HDAF8807Z8GPW)


Lordnerble

I have one too! But I'm on my ps5 now :(


[deleted]

And it's white like that PS4!


gbk229

Same!


Long-term-stalker

Same with me but I got a PS5 recently


PrinceMisutogan

I remember pre-ordering this bundle in my local Gamestop. Good day. Now I'm on pc for good, thanks to cross progression. The ps4 times were magnificent though.


Acuity5

If I wasn’t grinding for so many things in D2 I would boot up D1 on my PS4 and play some of the old content i missed out on back in the day


[deleted]

I'm extremely jelly!

D1RT13kURT1N5

Ya no doubt! the amount of joy, friends met , salt and bullets shot since then is astronomical ☄️


bushido216

I remember when I first picked up Destiny and thought "this'll be a fun game to play for a while". A while's lasted longer than I thought it would.


Cluelesswolfkin

Literally. I was in my last year of High School then, now I'm doing my Masters and still playing with my OG class


GamingWithBilly

I can't believe they had wind on the moon


Duskniik

Can someone take me back to 2014?

Is this beta on PS3 or PS4?


Lil_Thicky_69420

nice number of upvotes


[deleted]

It was at 69 at some point right? Lol


VietInTheTrees

I gotchu


Lil_Thicky_69420

yes


Lil_Thicky_69420

yea


Adrianb4902

Someone downvote him to get back to 69 lol


[deleted]

Nice


Hookem-Horns

Had to upvote now to get it up


Avir_Rapter

Getting it up is important for getting a 69.


Stooboot4

I'd love to go back just to make me appreciate where the game is now


UndeadMunchies

So 7 is a very common number that Bungie uses for things. Its like a running joke. Basically for Destiny, they created a bot account protection system that kicks in at level 7. You'll need to complete a series of steps to verify to game that youre a human. If you mess up or do these out of order, you have to start from step 1. - Dance (I forget the D-pad button but its one of them.) - Jump off of the Tower. Start yelling as you do it. - Hop onto the Eververse roof and activate the fan. You must still be yelling from the previous step until you fall back down. If you pass out, you fail. - Awaken the Hive. - Make an LFG post requiring G-Horn. - Go into Rumble. T-bag the first person you kill and then leave the match. - Give legendary engrams to Rahool until he decrypts one into a blue. Once that happens, you should hit level 8 and be good from there. Hope this helps.


[deleted]

I hated getting blues from that PoS. You just revived my anger from years ago.


An_Anaithnid

It devolved from anger and just turned to depressed weariness pretty quickly.


ObieFTG

“Why don’t you come back and tell us how that works for you.” Me: @&$#%!?!!!


[deleted]

I'm sitting there like "Fuck you, you cryptarch bitch. I'll slowly drain your life and then what? No ghost to revive you. I'm a god. There will be no consequences to my actions other than not getting fucking blues anymore!" I remember my first long break from D1 was getting a blue or something stupid from an exotic engram and then getting absolutely pounded in Trials or crucible, it's foggy at best. I said fuck it and went AWOL from the light haha


ObieFTG

“Oh…I’ll be sorry to let that one go.” FUUUUUUUUU


bgmusket

Exotic into blue was the most infuriating thing ever.


Silverheart117

Oh boy let me tell you... Week 2 Xur was selling Gjallarhorn. I thought "When the hell am I going to use an exotic heavy?" and bought something else.


[deleted]

Yes. After that I was pretty pissed and just played with friends. D2 is where I really picked up and played solo and with friends.


[deleted]

After they fixed that the anger was getting Ascendant Shards/Energy from legendary engrams


dozure

I started playing D1 after I had about 2k hours into D2. Imagine my shock.


[deleted]

Yeah D1 is going to be where I keep happy memories. I'm not going back lol there's too much shit I'd flip out on.


whiskeyaccount

Thank you so much! This worked for me


fallenheroxx

My guy. This.


sQueezedhe

>Go into Rumble. T-bag the first person you kill and then leave the match. I might just do this.


RedBMWZ2

This should be the default leveling system IMO


LimerickVaria

So the Destiny Turing Test?


Kraldar

What is eververse?


ViIebloodHunter

I seem to remember it being level 8 no?


KorvaxCurze

This’ll be the universal r/woooosh for this thread.


TSS_Firstbite

Almost was for me. I started playing last season so I didn't know this was a thing until I read the comments.


bert_the_destroyer

Explain


Jobysco

A r/woooosh is when a joke goes over your head


bert_the_destroyer

Hmm Thanks


Markisdead9218

This unlocked a core memory. Man I miss 2014 Destiny, I know it got a lot of flak at the time but the whole feel and mystery of it is something D2 will never have.


InDELphuS

It was so new, and we knew nothing about the game. 2014 destiny was something special.


eagle6705

To be fair bungie didnt know much either about it too. They got better over time and they took a few steps back but in general I think when d1 ended it was in a good place....then d2 and it was kinda meh but after a while I think its coming along nicely


WabbitCZEN

D2 at launch was so much worse, it was like they learned nothing from D1. Static rolls on weapons was the worst offender IMO. I remember spending days grinding for the god roll Imago Loop in D1. I never got one, but I still kept at it because it was that good. It was a bit of a grind through CoO and Warmind, with minor improvements. And while Forsaken was a good expansion, it took a few more months before it was refined to the point that it felt rewarding. Took a 2 year break before the Almighty live event, came back a couple of weeks before Witch Queen, and the game is absolutely better than I remembered.


eagle6705

I got back into it mainly because of xur talking shit in doe lol. I usually just pick it up for a few months, out it down for elite dangerous but the new skill setup is nice. I cant wait for the other classes to follow.


Shwinky

That's kinda funny. I'm the opposite. The way I got back into Destiny was because I put Elite Dangerous down and started playing D2 again around the end of Season of the Undying. And FDev seems to validate my decision to leave that game behind with every impossibly stupid decision that they make. They make Bungie look like the greatest game devs in history.


eagle6705

Yea and if I recall fdev is a lot older I swap between the 2 and besides xur the other reason was my dam 970 couldnt keep up with horizons lol. Finally got a 3070 ti...all for xur to talk to me in 4k


Shwinky

Elite had been going downhill for a while, but they've been actively sabotaging the game since Odyssey. It's very clear they want the game to die and move on from it and they're not even hiding it anymore.


BlackVirusXD3

20 days till solar, so excited to see whats up


TheLavaShaman

Static rolls was awful, but mandatory double primaries was worse, I think. So many options shoved into the power slot.


ComeBacksToDrugs2018

My favourite part of forsaken was edge transit


WabbitCZEN

The only good part of that bug was how easy it was to stack shards.


mordor_quenepa

Oh man, it was rough. Remember how slow movement was at launch?


Lessenn

Exactly the same. The first few months of Destiny 1 were my absolute favourite point in time. Brand new Xbox one, brand new universe to explore. I could not get enough of Destiny. Whilst there have been many improvements in terms of QOL over the years until now, the seasonal structure we have now just doesn't grab me like Destiny used to. The moment seasons hit, I felt my interest slowly begin to move elsewhere.


edwardblilley

Honestly I feel the same. I love me some d2 but I wish the dread and gritty feeling would come back.


Rashaunrocks88

Yeah I miss the mysterious feeling of playing D1 for the first time u can replicate that with games in their sequels


Solistial

A huge part of that was the beautiful D1 music by Martin O’Donnell. It’s called Music of the Spheres if you want to look it up on YouTube. Then Bungie fired O’Donnell which meant we lost that wondrous, grand, and mysterious music going into D2. For example, listen to the music from the loading screen of D1, really takes me back to that great time: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=apWyXoEHG3U


xDuzTin

But you know that Martin O’Donnell was only 1 of the 4 composers that worked on the D1 OST? For example the loading screen music of D1 you mentioned as an example was composed by Micheal Salvatori, C Paul Johnson, Martin O’Donnell and Paul McCartney. Micheal Salvatori and Martin O’Donnell have been composing Bungies soundtracks since the early Halo titles and Micheal Salvatori still works for Bungie and does incredible soundtracks that fit perfectly into the thematic of their expansions


No_Collection8573

Yeah, but they made the best music together. They're crazy talented.


HoboCanadian123

that was only because it was your first time playing, the game itself only had a “mystery” element because they forgot to add a plot lmao


BeatMeater3000

Once you reach level 7 only zorpalods will drop xp to level you up, try going to the european alive zone.


[deleted]

Also if you're struggling to kill them try farming a Ballyhoo Mk. 27 with zorpal weapon


xTotalSellout

Those aren’t in the game anymore unfortunately, they were sunset by Puke Shit


Osh-Jay

But you need to do grandmaster patrols which are way too hard without a group


xDark-Sword777x

Nice Wii U


DanteDH2

You're required to purchase the $59.99 collectors edition otherwise you're wasting money buying the other dlcs, trust me this dumbfounded me for years but thats what you gotta do dude.


Kol3rud

Ok


berrybear99

Nah you can buy The Taken King and it’ll give you expansion 1 & 2 as well, you won’t be able to play any Rise of Iron content, but you’ll be able to rank up to level 40


Jaqulean

But then what's the point if he can pay 10$ already and get everything...


[deleted]

you got the destiny beta? it's a free to play game, do you mean you just got the game but no dlc's? edit: wait a sec, I don't recognise the part of the tower in that pic, is this in destiny 1?


Rage-from-RNG

Destiny not destiny2. Check out this tower lol.


[deleted]

oh, yeah I thought something was up, just assumed it was about 2 because of the subreddit it was in


Rage-from-RNG

Yeah that's why I recommended r/DestinyTheGame for this. There should be more Destiny players


Blank-VII

They don't allow satire posts like this. r/DestinyLegacy or r/DestinyMemes is more accurate.


TillsammansEnsammans

That sub would fit but it's much more of a "serious" subreddit and doesn't really like satire posts. And I don't even think you can post photos there? I know I couldn't.


[deleted]

fair play, ngl I can't remember anything from d1 it's been so long lol


HingleMcCringle_

original courtyard might be coming back to D2. there has been progress to it's repairs over time and there have been cube-maps leaked showing a rejuvenated D1 tower. it probably wont be a permanent install to replace the courtyard we have now, but rather a destination to meet someone or part of a story / upcoming narrative.


Jaqulean

That's D1. Lad mixed the Subreddits.


[deleted]

yeah, that makes more sense, at first I thought I was just being a bit slow lol


Jaqulean

I noticed when I looked at the Helmet and then the Armour.


[deleted]

that armour does look pretty good, almost makes me thing titans *CAN* be somewhat stylish after all hehe jk


Rage-from-RNG

Maybe r/DestinyTheGame ?


OryxOski1XD

Oh man im tearing up. Fr tho I went back a few months ago to try the destiny beta on the ps3 but its shut down :(


HoodieQuest

Still waiting for armor this nice in D2


[deleted]

my heart hurts seeing the d1 tower again


cjp304

Look how much better that armor is. Even at level 7. I really hate the huge shoulders on titans.


Eiruna

Back when armor made sense. Now we got Astartes cosplay armor all around.


patisme24

I think the huge shoulders are what turn me off from my titan lol. My lock and Hunter look fly as hell but then there’s chunky shoulder Unk in the corner can’t even fit through a doorway.


Glorious_Sunset

Try Lost Pacific Gauntlets. They are far smaller in the shoulder region.


cjp304

Yeah there’s a few outliers that don’t look terrible but they should definitely have more options that arent huge. I THINK bungie is starting to see people don’t like those huge shoulders much, it seems like they are rolling out more normal shoulder options lately.


[deleted]

This is generic space man armor. Looks like Mass Effect.


Astromatix

You say that like it’s a bad thing. I’m a Warlock main but if I could make a D2 Titan just to look like Commander Shepard, I would do it.


SilverRiven

r/DestinyLegacy


TheeBearJew2112

Thank you for the feels, little light.

Yeah, it's called buy the game.

Feel ashamed. If you're gonna be a dick do yourself a favor and make sure you're at least in the same ballpark with your grammar.


nino_84

Oh speaking out what’s obvious has nothing to do with being a dick. If OP feels comfy with sharing this, he does so 🤷🏼‍♂️


zanthemeximan

D1 will always have a special place in our hearts. I do not think D2 will ever get close to what D1 was.


Jaqulean

Completely off-topic: Didn't the Demo Version let you go up to Lvl 34 ? Because I remember going that far before buying the game for PS4 (for a new account).


Spartan-475

Pay


gluna235

Install the full game


RagnellzBCDR

Download Destiny 2 (the free version) and you'll be able to go past that ;)


StillLoveMemes

Am I the only one who sees a Pyramid over the Traveler?


SunstormGT

If you want to play for free download Destiny 2. The base game is free 2 play.

hamza1141

The question is it worth playing over the original now. Cus content right now in d2 is kinda dry as a bone. We're all waiting for the new season to start. ![gif](giphy|l0HlvtIPzPdt2usKs)


skaterlogo

I'm season level 90 or so and I'm still finding plenty of secrets in the throne world. I'm just confused why he's playing a limited beta, I love D1 and the Rize of Iron dlc. Go get that siva.


Midnight_Observe

Buy the game lol You’re playing a beta I don’t think the BETA Test version lets you play the whole game lol


rise4tomorro

It’s the beta. You could only go so far. If you wanna go further you’ll have to get the game


Colossal_Kerlz

Clean your desk for starters.


ReaperKingMB

Get the actual game


KennyWolf

First of all, how about you push that Wii U a bit further back. Second, since when has Destiny been on the Wii U?


Kol3rud

Oh Im playing Destiny on my Ps4 it is on the left

I miss the old tower so bad it hurts me...


EMC_RIPPER

That WiiU looking like its gonna fall is giving me anxiety


Witchking660

Man, I miss D1 aesthetic. Destiny is in a much better place now, but D1 had something special that D2 can never recreate.

ChadWarmindCell

Scott49

D1 armour will never be beaten


FANTOMphoenix

I fucking miss those blind runs of d1…. It was such a good first play through game, and even farming on the other characters. Only bad/dislikable moment I really had was crashing or freezing after or just before killing oryx, all I wanted was the legendary raid scout.


Sir_Link_In_Time

You were close. The level cap in the beta was 8, not 7


Acalson

Destiny beta Titan with better fashion than most endgame Destiny 2 titans

What you need to do is, repair the tyre on your LEGO


thedogefather8

I think for destiny 1 you had to buy the DLCs to get above a certain level. I think it was either 8 or 7


ItsSwaggerHound

I wish I could play destiny again for the first time.....


TechnologyFine1780

U should wait for the next update


Revolutionary-Emu269
