I'll be on and will play if my regular group isn't on. Finally got some light gear and I'm a couple of points from 22 now.

So like if you didn't have a messageboard like this, how do people exactly meet up in this game and coordinate to play the stages of the game exactly? I don't see a keyboard chat panel anywhere to ask if someone wants to do a Moon mission or something. The game is pretty decent, but I tire of it fast on the Moon after pulling off one of the stages. I just took down this big knight and got some records, now the sword of crota is next whenever I fire it back up (maybe tomorrow) as I just got off the game.

I wish it was more easy to coordinate stuff unless I'm missing something as these stages are all supposedly designed for fireteams of 3 and I can see how. I'm not getting smoked because I am laying fairly well back whenever possible and sniping head shots on knights and wizards to cut the bs down some, but when you're up against the back end of a level and your ghost (yet again) is farming info and you're a stationary target, it sucks.

I did the raid yesterday, after 4 hours we got to the final boss, but after about 20 tries, people started to drop out and you really need that party of 6.

Didn't get any Raid gear, pretty much every piece of gear a lvl 25 got, bastard.

So people can steal the pickups and they're not like grayed out and divvied up for each person? That's pretty crappy.

I still didn't see an answer unless I missed it about finding people to do specific missions seeing that it doesn't actually appear to have some conversation tool setup inside the game.

It's RNG for each person.

Ahh random ok. Is it me but is the match making in the crucible just broken? I tried two matches and in both people were like 10-20 levels over me and i was getting 1 shot killed. I got so pissed at the stupidity I bailed on it 1/2 into the second match as it was just garbage.

I can't see where anyone could possibly have fun playing that shit other than being max leveled and then tweaked out with some very custom pickups because you just get plugged. I've never hated an online battle more than that ever, period. I usually can on a bad day hold my own pulling around 50% but ugh that was awful. ...so I finished sword of crota instead, now that was interesting.

The PvP is broken at the moment, fusion rifles just one hit everyone and shotguns not far off, Bungie have said there are some nerfs on the way, I am not playing PvP until it is a bit more balanced.

Yeah, the PVP is pretty damn broken in those respects. Also, I hate the blue shields.
