Someone with editing power should add me to the spreadsheet.

EDIT: Nevermind, I realized I can add myself. :)

I think it would be cool to have a DBO tool (maybe integrated into the Calendar?) for this. Basically you could say I am running a Raid on Thursday September 25th, and people could sign up to participate. May be beyond the scope of your calendar program since I haven't looked into the software DBO uses for it, but would be cool to be able to do.

I was thinking the same. There are a lot of variables to juggle, though.

I don't know how much help this could be in the first place though. There's forum handles a plenty, but hardly any actual gamertags to get in touch with. We should probably fix that.

Unless there's those mysterious third subclasses, which I hope there are.

I think there's definitely a mix of one day there will be raid(s), but they wanted a hard "The" to let you know it is not to be trifled with.

I'm excited for Strikes and the Super Strike (also known as The Raid)

I'm excited to build the ultimate tank. Probably a safe bet there will be a point at which the more support-style supers will be the key to progress. That's where I want to play.

I mean, if someone wouldn't mind dropping some Ward of Dawn footage, that would be pretty cool, I guess.

Aaaand it's likely no mere coincidence that a party of six allows one of each subclass...

That's the only explanation I can think of for the confusing language being used for raid(s). Referring to it/them as singular one minute, and plural the next.

What if it's just a 100-level slog -type thing, and they're referring to it as "The Raid", because there's only one; yet the act itself is the activity. Like "Hey stabs, you want to do a Raid?", meaning in all probability we'll die, but we'd collect sweet loot along the way.

And then one day, maybe, just maybe we'll make it to the end. Or the secret cow level.

I don't want to overstep my bounds since I am not the most seasoned DBO'r. Who would be the some of the key Xbox One folks on DBO?

I am up for helping organize a DBO Xbox One Raiding crew though!

The DBO Raider's should be formed soon. ;)

Like you, I'm also curious about how possible it would be to pull these Raids off solo. I'm sure RC Master and Mythic Tyrant will be the first to let us know :)

In September:

'Sorry, you do not have enough players to start The Vault of Glass'

"Well, I guess that's that..." :/

Haha, when I read your other post about solo'ing them, the first thing I thought was: "I wonder if Mythic Tyrant will make videos to beat the raid solo..."

Sadly, it really is unlikely that I'll be able to coordinate something like that, at least no time soon. I managed to spend about 30 minutes playing with the TBoD guys and a few other friends on the last day of the beta... that was the most time I've spent playing with friends in about a year. It's obviously not Bungie's fault that my schedule is so strange (I do most of my playing between 6am-9am), but I do wish they'd let us decide if we want to risk playing the raids with randoms, rather than making that decision for us.

Raids sound awesome, but the lack of matchmaking does concern me. I'm rarely playing at times when my friends are online... certainly not for 2-3 hours straight. I understand Bungie's stance that raids require communication and are best experienced with friends, but I'd much prefer they give me the choice. As it stands, with no matchmaking support, I'll likely never get to try any of the raids unless I attempt them solo.

Aw. While it might not be possible to just log in and pick up a group, I'm sure it won't be too difficult to coordinate with 5 other players a little in advance.

What I'm most curious about regarding Raids is if 6 players is really mandatory, or if you can make do with just 5 or maybe even 4. Obviously it would be harder, but just wondering if the experience has a little flexibility or if there is something dumb like 6 pressure plates and everyone has to stand on one to open the next door.

Daily story chapters? (reply)

Kermit — Thu, 31 Jul 2014 03:53:49 +0000

The way he described it made it seem to me like they're the normal story missions, but a certain one is selected to give more XP than normal. Could use some clarification, though.

I figure it will be similar to campaign challenges in Reach.
