Co-op Night this Wednesday: The Ark

Co-op Night Is Wednesday at 9 EST

The Destiny Beta has almost arrived, and the forum has been a boisterous place recently, so let's get together and play to help us remember what we enjoy and why we're here. Destiny seems built to allow us to play together, and reliving some past co-op adventures from Bungie seems like a great way to prepare for the future they're building for us.

First up:

The Ark
Legendary
Tough Luck, Thunderstorm, and Mythic (fun skulls and Tilt optional)

What's not to love about massive battlefields, tanks, and a climatic arena match with a Brute Chieftan?

How do we play?

1. Either send a friend request to the gamertag Coop Night on XBL or send a note to Kermit7.
2. If you're online at the designated time, I assume you have an interest in co-op and invite you to my party. (Friends of Coop Night get invited first.)
3. If and when we have a full party (or multiple parties), we play a short custom Free-For-All game and the results will serve as our randomized team list. I'll assign team leaders, and we'll count off four starting from the top.
4. The party leaders leave to form their own Xbox Live party, inviting their assigned teammates (usually the two to three names under them in the last game results). Then the co-op game begins!

With luck, this process shouldn't take more than 10-15 minutes.

Watch each's back and remember, on Co-op Night assists count as much as kills.

P.S. We'll probably wrap up around 10, and then we can join UnrealCh13f for multiplayer fun in Reach. See his post.

Two events at the same time? Hrrrm.

Would be great if this one started a little earlier. Like 7.

Normally, sure. This is a special case, however. We're doing Matchmaking on the same night. To get in a good number of matches, it'd be good to start at 9. Most people only stay until 11 or so. If we start co-op at 7, we can get in more matches later.

There's no reason why both can't start at 9, that way people who can't get online until after 8:30 can still play Co-Op or MM depending on which they prefer.

This. It's a big community (and I think it's about to get bigger).

9 p.m. is kind of late for me, honestly, but efforts to move it earlier have met resistance in the past. I believe consistency is a virtue, and Vagueness is more likely to remember 9 p.m. (10 minutes late.)

Another issue is that the East coast is the time caboose in the United States. I'm hoping some west coasters can get home, feed themselves, and let the dog out before 7, and maybe they can join us.

Edit: I said that backwards. The east coast is the time locomotive in the United States, obviously. We get to the future faster. :)

What about the brave men and women who want both?

Then they can join after Co-Op is done! Be Brave. Stay up late. Play all the Halo!

I suggest brownies-- sugar, caffeine, and they taste awesome.

BRB, writing this on myself in permanent marker.
It's just too bad it's not feasible to activate that one easter egg, I don't think most people want to wait several minutes to shoot all the crystals, let alone possibly revert when they get shot prematurely, although with four people it should be less risky.
(but seriously, I did consider using a permanent marker on my arm, but I just I wrote it somewhere I'll see it in pencil)

The earlier we start, the earlier we can get to Reach.

We had a good turn-out, and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Padd--I mean, playing through the Ark.

More to come, but in the meantime, on to the Beeeta!
