“Hey Zavala, wanna know what a transmat zone on the Dreadnaught looks like?” “You landed a Guardian on the Dreadnaught without authorization?!” “Oh right. Can I have authorization?”

Destiny is a first person shooter crossed with MMO elements made by former Halo developer Bungie and released in 2014 by Activision. While Destiny had a shallow launch and a lukewarm reception in it’s first year, it’s since had two mission packs and two full fledged expansions that have really helped the game come into it’s own. If you passed Destiny by on it’s launch, or dropped it within the first year, maybe it’s time to give it another chance!

BEFORE WE BEGIN...

There’s two things you ought to know before I lay down what Destiny is about. The first is that Destiny requires an online connection to play, and also requires a paid subscription to Microsoft’s Xbox Live or Sony’s Playstation Plus to play any of the online/matchmaking content, like co-op Strikes and Crucible PvP. The second is that the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions of Destiny have stopped receiving support and updates since August 2016. However, you can transfer your save file to the next-gen version of your respective platform (but not across different platforms), and keep your characters and progress.

This can be a dealbreaker for some, especially the always online thing. It’s just how the game is. If you buy the game new physically, it typically comes with a free 30 day online trial though.

With that out of the way, let’s get into this proper.

EYES UP, GUARDIAN

You have been dead for centuries.

Long after the the collapse of humanity from their Golden Age, a small diamond-shaped drone floats around the remains of Old Russia, searching for something. For someone. As luck would have it, that someone is you. As the curious robot resurrects you from death, it bestows you with Light and explains that it is a Ghost, born from the Traveler’s dying sacrifice to protect humanity from those who seek to destroy it.

You make your way to The Last City, and begin your journey to fight against the biggest threats mankind has ever known.

At it’s absolute core, Destiny is a fairly standard modern first person shooter. It kinda controls like a slower-paced Call of Duty, what with the aim-down-sights and the sprinting and all that. That’s not to say it’s a bog-standard controlling game, far from it. If you played Halo 3 or Halo Reach, then you already know that Bungie are the masters of high quality core mechanics. Destiny’s gunplay feels effin’ great. Running and jumping has a good weight to it, and the many, many guns are all fun to shoot for the most part.

Where Destiny really starts to come into it’s own is with the different classes. While they don’t play that differently at a core level, the three classes wield their Light in different ways, in the form of three unique subclasses that only they can use. Each subclass based off of the elemental damage types in the game. Arc is Lightning, Solar is Fire, and Void is Gravity/Dark Energy.

---

HUNTER

Armor: Medium

Recovery: Low

Agility: High

Jump Type: Double Jump

Class Item: Cloak

Hunters are scouts, exploring the wilderness and carving their own path. Quick but relatively fragile, Hunters are generally all about either staying back and picking off targets from afar, or jumping in, doing damage, and getting out before retaliation comes. The Hunter subclasses are:

Gunslinger (Solar): Summon your Golden Gun, a three-shot revolver, and rain fire on your enemies

Bladedancer (Arc): Wield the Arc Blade and cut down any who stand before you

Nightstalker (Void): Fire the Shadowshot bow and tether your foes to weaken them and restrict their movement

---

TITAN

Armor: High

Recovery: Medium

Agility: Low

Jump Type: Lift

Class Item: Mark (butt towel)

Titans are the defenders of the Last City, patrolling the Wall and stomping out anything that might pose a threat to humanity. Titans can typically take more punishment than the other classes, so more often than not just jumping in the fray and drawing attention (or outright killing the enemy) is a good strategy. The Titan subclasses are:

Striker (Arc): Slam the ground with Fists of Havoc, wiping out everything surrounding you

Defender (Void): Spawn your Ward of Dawn, a protective bubble shield that provides your allies with various buffs

Sunbreaker (Solar): Throw the Hammers of Sol at your foes, causing them to erupt into flames

---

WARLOCK

Armor: Low

Recovery: High

Agility: Medium

Jump Type: Glide

Class Item: Bond (bicep band)

Warlocks have dedicated themselves to understanding the true potential of their Light. Kinda like cross between a scholar and a mad scientist. Warlocks are kind of in the middle of the Hunter and Titan as far as playstyle goes, but the sheer power of their abilities give them an edge above others. The Warlock subclasses are:

Voidwalker (Void): Hurl your Nova Bomb to obliterate any enemy caught in it’s blast

Sunsinger (Solar): Fill yourself with Radiance, greatly reducing your grenade cooldown time and, fully upgraded, allows you to resurrect yourself after death

Stormcaller (Arc): Activate Stormtrance and become Emperor Palpatine, shooting lightning from your fingertips

---

While different classes can’t wear each other’s armor, weapons aren’t tied to classes outside of a small handful of specific ones, so no worries on missing out on those. Obviously there’s more to the subclasses than just their super abilities. Each subclass gets a choice between three grenade types, three jump augments, three melee augments, etc. With this system, there’s quite a few ways to play a single subclass!

When you initially begin the game for the first time, you’ll be prompted to pick a class and create a character. You can choose between the Human, Awoken, and Exo races. Humans are, well, human. Awoken are humans who underwent a strange transformation while trying to escape the Collapse, for unknown reasons. Exos are sapient war machines, constructed for a long forgotten conflict during the Golden Age.

Aside from race, you can also choose your face shape, skin color, eye color, hair and hair color, and various markings. Be aware that you cannot change your class or appearance after finalizing your choices, so make sure you’re happy with what you have!

In Destiny, there’s two different levels you have to keep track of: your Character Level and your Light Level.

As you kill enemies, complete quests, or turn in bounties, you gain experience. Gain enough experience, and you can level up your Character Level. Leveling up doesn’t honestly do a whole lot in Destiny outside of letting you wear better gear and access more difficult missions, as the gaining of experience itself is what levels up your subclasses and gear perks. The Character Level cap is at 40.

Your Light Level, AKA your gear level, is determined by the average of the various Attack and Defense scores of your gear. While you’re still leveling up your Character Level, your Light Level doesn’t matter as much, as you can just equip whatever has a bigger number. After you hit the Character Level cap though, your Light Level is what determines how much damage you can deal and how much damage you can take. The Light Level cap is at 400.

So how do you get better gear? The main way is through these curious shapes called Engrams. Occasionally when you kill an enemy, an engram will fall out of them for the taking. While you’re able to see what equipment slot the engram will be for, what’s actually inside is a complete mystery until brought to a Cryptarch. When given to one, they will decode it, turning it into a piece of gear, and give it back to you. The quality of engrams goes like this:

White - Common

Green - Uncommon

Blue - Rare

Purple - Legendary

Gold - Exotic

Of course, there’s other ways of getting gear, but this is the main method. If you have some form of colorblindness, there are options in the game that color these things and other HUD elements differently to help you out.

WEAPONS OF LIGHT

With the general gameplay, this is what you’ll be seeing for the most part. Your health/shields are at the top, and there’s a motion tracker at the top left. The bottom left has your more critical information, like your current ammo and your ability cooldown timers.

I’m not gonna go over what buttons do what, considering the game’s first mission is also a tutorial that goes over all that, but I will tell you how to switch between your three weapons, since I don’t think the game ever outright tells you. Switching between your first and second weapons only requires a single press of the Triangle/Y button, but switching between those and your third weapon requires you to hold down the button.

Pressing the select/back/whatever Xbox calls that button or the touchpad on PS4 brings out your Ghost. Doing so lets you view your current objective, view any quests or bounties you’re tracking, return to orbit, or summon your Sparrow (a speeder bike type of vehicle).

I suppose I ought to go over the kinds of weapons you’ll get to use in Destiny as well. Weapons are separated into three categories: Primary, Secondary, and Heavy.

PRIMARY

Auto Rifle: Pretty standard assault rifle. Hold the trigger, and it’ll keep firing.

Scout Rifle: Semi-auto. Fires one shot per trigger pull.

Pulse Rifle: Fires in three round bursts per trigger pull.

Hand Cannon: More than enough to kill anything that moves. The amount of rounds in the chamber isn’t just limited to six shots either!

SECONDARY

Shotgun: Close range, large spread. Most shotguns are pump-action, though a few specific ones can be fired rapidly.

Sniper Rifle: Long range, big scope. Aim for the head.

Fusion Rifle: They’re kind of like a close-medium range shotgun that you have to hold the trigger to charge up.

Sidearm: SPACE GLOCK BLAT BLAT BLAT

HEAVY

Machine Gun: Hold the trigger, lay waste to anything in your vision.

Rocket Launcher: Good for clearing groups. Watch out for the splash damage.

Sword: SWISH SWISH SWOOSH

Different “archetypes” exist for the various weapons. An example of this would be one Auto Rifle having a high fire rate, a large magazine size, but low impact, and another Auto Rifle having a low fire rate, a small magazine size, but higher impact.

Like I mentioned in the image above, unlocking gear perks requires you to just go out and gain experience. Once unlocked, you need to slot in some materials and money to actually acquire the perk for the weapon. Planetary materials are found on the various planets, either as a raw collectable out in the wild or in chests that randomly appear in the various zones. You can also get them as rewards for completing specific events or bounties.

KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE

Let’s talk about your allies as well. You have friends out in the world, eager to help supply your crusade.

THE TOWER

Watching over the Last City is The Tower: home of the Guardians. This is will be your main base of operations. Many different factions and vendors reside in The Tower, supplying Guardians with the tools they need to fight against the hordes of Darkness.

The Vanguard are the main coordinators of efforts against the various things that threaten mankind. Commander Zavala, the Titan Vanguard, is the main leader of the group, with Warlock Vanguard Ikora Rey and Hunter Vanguard Cayde-6 supporting him and offering their consultations. Together, they help train new Guardians, sell class specific gear, and offer radio support during some missions.

Complete bounties and patrol missions, and you’ll rank up with the Vanguard, which scores you a free faction package full of Vanguard-flavored goodies.

Lord Shaxx rules over The Crucible, a warground that pits Guardians against each other as a way to train them and test their mettle. Shaxx sells Crucible-styled gear and offers Weekly Crucible bounties. He also personally acts as the Crucible’s announcer for all matches, and is known for being very... enthusiastic. Many legends have risen by making a name for themselves in The Crucible, and rising in the ranks yourself can earn you Crucible Packages, as well as gear that can only be obtained as an end-of-match reward.

Resident Gunsmith Banshee-44 aims to keep Guardians supplied with the arms they need. Alongside selling guns, he also sells upgrade materials and ammo packages, offers special weapon orders, and has a field-testing program. Field test enough guns, and Banshee will offer you a Gunsmith Package as a reward.

Xander 99-40 is the Bounty Tracker for the Tower. Accepting and completing the daily bounties are an essential way to make money, gain experience, and get faction reputation. Initially you only have Vanguard and Crucible bounties to pick from, but after getting to the higher Light Levels, Elite Vanguard bounties also become available. Check back every day for more bounties to complete!

Aside from the Vanguard, in which you are automatically enrolled into, there exist three joinable factions for you to choose between. They each have their own political agenda, and they each offer their members exclusive gear you can’t get anywhere else. You can only be a member of one of them at a time, though you can leave and join them without any consequences. You can only change factions once a week.

The New Monarchy aims to bring back the lost glory of the Golden Age, and seek to establish the leadership that will do so. They are fiercely loyal to the City, almost to a fault. Their colors are Red and White.

The Future War Cult believe that all-out warfare with The Darkness is an inevitability that must be faced, and seeks to arm any who decide to pledge their allegiance. At least, that’s what they say. Their colors are a deep Purple, with stripes of Gold, White, and Red.

Dead Orbit believes that humanity must abandon Earth and The Traveler, and find another planet to inhabit altogether. They believe that the Darkness can be escaped, and that hiding beneath the Traveler will doom them all. Their colors are Black and White.

Ranking up in the factions is the same as the Vanguard and the Crucible, for the most part. Complete bounties, go on patrol missions, or compete in Crucible matches in their name, and you’ll get their Faction Packages as well.

Amanda Holliday is the local shipwright, performing maintenance on all assortments of Guardian vehicles. She also sells ships and sparrows for you to buy. During the wintertime, she’s the organizer of the Sparrow Racing League, where Guardians compete in high-speed races for prizes and glory.

Once a month, the Iron Banner is brought forth by Lord Saladin. The Iron Banner is a Crucible event that only the strongest will prevail in, and be rewarded with unique gear. What sets it apart from the normal Crucible is that the higher level you are, the more of an advantage you have. This is different from the Crucible, where players of unequal levels can still compete equally against each other. Gain enough reputation during Iron Banner week, and you’ll be able to buy exclusive gear from Saladin.

The Speaker has resided in the Last City long before the first walls were ever formed. He preaches of the Traveler, how it blessed the Guardians with Light, and how protecting it and reviving it are the only hope for The Last City, and all of humanity. Alongside issuing the occasional quest, he also sells Class Items, Ghost Shells, and trades in various special upgrade materials.

These are but a few of the allies you’ll come to know in your journey. The Tower isn’t the only place you’ll get to visit, after all. Know them well, and they will help you through your darkest times.

THE DARKNESS CONSUMES YOU...

Outside of the City’s protective walls, on Earth and throughout the Solar System, is an intensely dangerous environment, crawling with hostile alien forces who all too eager to finally snuff out what remains of humanity.

There are four major alien races in Destiny that you will encounter, each one visually distinct and structurally different from each other.

FALLEN

The Fallen are a race of four-armed pirates and scavengers, ruthless and cutthroat. Different factions, called houses, exist within the Fallen in the Solar System, each one flying different colors. The houses all have different views on how to approach their battles with the other races, and while they can feud with each other, they generally work together to fight for their kind. Fallen typically only really appeared around Earth, but they have since started showing up on other planets around the Solar System as well. The Fallen you encounter will consist of:

Dregs: The low-tier grunt of the Fallen. Small in stature and hardly ever armed with anything more than a pistol and a grenade. The worst they can honestly do is get in your face and try and cut you with a knife. Dregs are hardly ever a problem, and go down very easily.

Shanks: Sometimes the Fallen deploy Shanks, unmanned drones that hover around and generally annoy anyone it fires at. Shanks go down extremely easily, but there are variants to them that can be extremely dangerous if not dealt with.

Vandals: The next tier up in the Fallen chain of command. Vandals take on a variety of roles as far as combat goes, from distant snipers to medium-range foot soldiers to up-close-and-personal with cloaking stealth tech and dual swords. Certainly not a foe to underestimate.

Servitors: Another machine the Fallen deploy, Servitors are big floating spheres that mainly act as support for the other troops, giving them a minor buff and shooting from afar with it’s eye. Servitors are quite tough and take quite a bit of damage to go down.

Captains: The head honchos. Captains lead the charge with a variety of weapons and fearlessly attack any who oppose them. They’re also equipped with a regenerating shield and a short range teleport, so they can be a bit slippery as well. Captains come in various sizes as well, based on their political role within their house. The largest Captains in order of political power are Kells (House Leader), Archons (House Priest), and Barons (House Shipmaster).

---

HIVE

The Hive are almost a complete antithesis to Light. They are an ancient race, pre-dating humanity by millions of years. Made of bone and chitin, shrouded by Darkness, and infested with worms, Hive are intensely bloodthirsty and will do anything and everything they can to consume Light. The Hive have almost completely overrun Earth’s moon and carved miles upon miles of underground tunnels into it, and have started assaults on Earth. The Hive you’ll encounter consist of:

Thralls: The cannon fodder of the Hive. Thralls are almost always in large groups and will rush down their enemies to tear them apart with their claws. However, they are extremely brittle and go down with not much effort.

Acolytes: The HIve’s main foot soldiers. They’re a lot like Dregs, honestly, though their weapons are quite a bit more lethal. They go down fairly easily.

Knights: The elite infantry of the Hive. Tall, imposing, and tough as nails. Knights are typically either equipped with a grenade launcher type of weapon or a huge sword. Sometimes, after taking enough damage or seeing a grenade heading their way, they will summon an impenetrable Wall of Darkness to hide behind, which also lets them regenerate a little bit of health. Knights are a force to be reckoned with.

Wizards: The schemers of the Hive. Wizards fly around the battlefield and fire successive blasts of high-damage energy from a distance, as well as lay down clouds of poisonous smoke near them. On top of this, they have a regenerating shield. When their shield depletes, they will flee to cover and wait for it to recharge before coming back out. Wizards are a huge threat, but they are not as tough as Knights.

Ogres: Hulking monstrosity. Ogres are said to be formed from Thrall that have undergone experimentation from Wizards. Regardless, Ogres are huge in size and can take a significantly large amount of damage. Their main way of dealing damage is shooting a rapid fire beam from their giant eye, as well as slamming the ground if you get too close.

---

VEX

The Vex appear as bipedal robots for the most part, though their entire race is a hivemind machine. They’re essentially cyborgs: their bodies are all mechanical and are controlled by a brain of liquid mush in the abdomen area. The overall goal of the Vex is to convert everything into the perfect machine. They ritually convert entire planets into machines, for purposes unknown. On top of all this, they also have limited control over the flow of time. The Vex mainly reside on Venus, though they have recently been seen trying to gain a foothold on Mars as well. The Vex you’ll encounter are:

Goblin: The grunt of the Vex. Goblins are typically found in groups and basically act as a distraction away from the more powerful units. They go down easy. Shooting off their heads sends them into a frenzy, and they’ll try and rush you down.

Hobgoblin: The snipers of the Vex. Hobgoblins keep their distance and snipe from afar. If they sustain enough damage they’ll lock themselves down, becoming immune to all damage for a short time. Really annoying to deal with.

Minotaur: The heavy infantry of the Vex. Minotaurs are equipped with grenade launcher type weapons and use short-range teleportation to close the distance between them and their foes. Minotaurs also have no specific weak point you can target for critical damage, unlike most other enemies. They’re protected by a regenerating shield, as well.

Harpy: Quick and speedy, Harpies act as flankers, giving covering fire for the rest of the Vex troops. They are extremely weak and go down very easily. That being said, their shots do quite a bit of damage, so be careful around them.

Hydra: Less common but tough to kill, Hydras are large machines sporting a rapid fire energy bomb launcher and an impenetrable shield that slowly rotates around them. Even in death, their bodies explode with enough force to kill an unaware Guardian.

---

CABAL

The Cabal are a race that only knows war and conquest. Their appearance resembles a weird anthropomorphic rhino, but in the shape of a Space Marine from Warhammer 40k. Their culture completely revolves around waging war and conquering territory, to the extent that they are not allowed to return home until they achieve victory. The Cabal are masters of attrition warfare, able to continue fighting long-term conflicts to the bitter end. They’re currently occupying Mars, mining it for resources. The Cabal you will see are:

Legionnaires: The common soldier of the Cabal. Equipped with jump jets and a heavy carbine, Legionnaires are typically front and center, constantly positioning themselves to give their squad an advantage.

Phalanxes: The defense of the Cabal. Phalanxes hold a large shield that they plant in front of them to use as cover while they fire at their targets. They’re more dangerous up close, as Phalanxes can swing their shield at you, more often sending you flying to your death.

Centurions: The leaders of the Cabal. Centurions have the command over their troops, but keep their distance to fire from afar with their launchers. They use their jump jets often, constantly looking for advantageous positions to fire at you from. They have a regenerating shield that protects them, as well.

Colossi: The heavy infantry of the Cabal. Colossi are clad in extremely thick armor that allows them to shrug off even the most damaging of attacks. Not only this, but they’re equipped with heavy machine guns and a backpack that can fire homing missiles. However, all this equipment makes them very slow. These guys are no joke.

Psions: Unlike the other Cabal, Psions are small and agile. While they are fairly weak and attack with a fairly weak weapon, they can employ a shockwave attack that does quite a bit of damage if you get hit with it. The higher rank the Psion, the more damage the shockwave can do.

NO TIME TO EXPLAIN

There are many stories that are told in Destiny. Unfortunately due to the nature of how the game was developed, most of them did not make it into the actual game. Instead, these stories are relegated to Grimoire Cards. The Grimoire is essentially a database of various information in Destiny, whether it’s more mundane stuff like a brief bio on a character or something grand in scale, like the entire written history of an enemy faction.

Unlocking Grimoire is fairly easy: just play the game. Whether it’s getting kills with certain guns, finding Dead Ghosts and reactivating them, or obtaining new pieces of gear, these things typically contribute to some counter that will reward you with a new card. However, Grimoire can only be viewed on Bungie.net (or on the Destiny app), and only after linking your Bnet account to your PSN ID or XBL Gamertag.

Of course, if you want to read these stories without having to unlock all of these (after all, the more interesting ones are often quite a pain to get), there’s many sites online that just have all that information compiled. Is it a shame that this stuff isn’t in the game? Absolutely, it’s one of Destiny’s weaker aspects that the interesting lore and world-building is hidden away outside of the game.

But that doesn’t mean it isn’t there, and that it doesn’t have some influence over the game. There’s a lot of great stories in there, from the diary of the humans who first encountered the Traveler to the philosophical quandaries of the Vex Simulations, from the Faction Wars that waged within the City to Osiris and his heretical ventures to find the truth between the Light and Dark.

There’s also small stories like how Cayde-6 once briefly fought alongside a Fallen Captain against a swarm of Hive, or how Lord Saladin was once thrown like a javelin straight into a Fallen Walker tank. And then there’s stuff like the Fallen’s tale of the Great Whirlwind, the Hive’s Sword-Logic, or the Vex and their Vault of Glass.

It’s all quite interesting if you take your time to sink your teeth into it. But you have to be willing to go out and find it for yourself.

THE AGES OF DESTINY

Destiny first hit the shelves on September 9th, 2014. This game was hyped up to hell and beyond, in that kind of “No Man’s Sky” way that it could have never exceeded expectations. It was billed as this huge, sprawling game where you can go anywhere and do anything.

In reality, the campaign was pretty short, and there wasn’t much to do after that besides grind for better gear. The leveling system and gear level stuff used to be much more convoluted as well (leveling your character level past 20 required gear with higher Light Levels). All in all, Destiny was not so hot on release.

The first event was Queen’s Wrath, which happened a few weeks after Destiny’s release. Petra Venj, an emissary for the Awoken Queen in The Reef, offered special bounties and gear for those willing to give her some of their time. It briefly returned a week before the House of Wolves add-on was released.

The Dark Below came out on December 9th, 2014, just a couple of months after the initial launch. I wouldn’t call it a full expansion, but more of a DLC mission pack kind of thing. A new character, Eris Morn, has escaped the pits of the Hive on the Moon and brings a terrible tale: Crota, the Hive Prince, is coming back. It added a few new missions, a new raid, a new faction, some new gear, a new level cap of 32, and some minor tweaks. A modest add-on, but pretty much just more of the same.

The House of Wolves was released on May 19th, 2015. The Awoken in the Reef have requested the help of Guardians to hunt down Skolas, a Kell who has escaped their Prison of Elders, in new missions and strikes. It introduced the Sidearm genre of weapons, and increased the level cap to 34. This is also where Destiny started to actually develop it’s own personality.

The reclusive Awoken have opened their gates to Guardians, and the Vestian Outpost, a new social area in The Reef, can be accessed. The Prison of Elders itself is now a new wave-based PvE mode that can award huge prizes for those who hold a Treasure Key. Fight four waves in arenas based on the different enemy races, and then fight a final boss!

Alongside this is a weekend-only PvP event called the Trials of Osiris, which pits teams of three against each other. Respawning is disabled, you must be revived by a teammate to jump back into the fray. Kill all three opponents, and the round is yours. Win three rounds, and you win the game. Win nine games without a single loss, and you can gain access to the coveted Lighthouse on Mercury and score some extremely rare gear.

Destiny’s first major expansion, The Taken King, arrived one year after release on September 15th, 2015, and is almost effectively a new game in of itself. Oryx, God-King of the Hive, has heard of the fall of his son Crota, and has traveled to the Solar System to take revenge. Alongside an entirely new campaign of missions, strikes, and a raid, there’s also a new area to explore: Oryx’s Dreadnought.

TTK also brought with it major changes to various mechanics in the game. The new Character Level cap was 40, and Light Level, capped at 320, is now it’s own thing instead of being tied to the Character Level. Three new subclasses were introduced, as were Swords. Also introduced was a proper Quest system, where you can keep track of quests in an actual quest log. Believe it or not, quests were not really a thing in Destiny until TTK came out. Crazy.

However, the main new addition was the Taken, in which all existing enemies now have remixed Taken version of themselves, with entirely new attacks and AI. This essentially doubled the number of different enemies there are to fight in the game. Of course, alongside all of this was a huge slew of new gear to acquire. There’s also a new gear slot called Artifacts, which, I’ll be honest, doesn’t do a whole lot.

Later in October of 2015 was The Festival of the Lost. This Halloween event let players collect and wear masks, as well as complete a new quest. It also returned the following year in 2016, with new masks to collect and a new quest to complete.

During the winter in 2015 was the Sparrow Racing League. Players could race their Sparrows through two tracks, and get prizes like new Sparrow-related racing gear and different Sparrow horns to honk.

The racing itself is based on gates that racers must pass through in order to maintain maximum top speed. Miss a gate, and your overall top speed goes down a notch until you pass through another gate and gain that speed back. Going through gates also gives you more boost energy you can use to sideboost around tight corners or obstacles.

On the week of Valentine’s Day 2016, the Crimson Days event went down. A special 2v2 Crucible playlist could be played, and cute candy-themed Ghost shells could be obtained. This event did not return in 2017.

On April 12th, 2016, an update aptly named The April Update was released. The Light Level cap was raised to 335, and the Prison of Elders got a Taken update. A level 41 version of PoE was introduced, as well as Challenge of the Elders, which requires a special sigil to play. You also no longer need a Treasure Key to access the big treasure chest at the end.

It also introduced new gear called Chroma, which can be outfitted with a neon underglow, and Desolate, which is colored like the Taken are. It also updated some first year Legendary gear to be in line with the new Light Level system. All of this was completely free!

The Rise of Iron expansion came out on September 20th, 2016. Lord Saladin has left his post at the Iron Banner to stop a threat he thought had been long dead. The Fallen have gotten their hands on SIVA, a self-replicating nanotechnology able to consume and rewrite matter extremely quickly, and Saladin has employed Guardians to stop it.

Rise of Iron not only features a new campaign and raid, but a new social area, the Iron Temple. The Cosmodrone area on Earth is now under a thick blanket of snow, and a new area called the Plaguelands can now be accessed as well. New Fallen enemies called Splicers have appeared as well, having infused themselves with SIVA. A huge number of older strikes now have remixed versions of themselves as well.

This expansion also marked the sending off point for last-gen hardware, as the 360 and PS3 versions of Destiny did not get this. It wasn’t quite as big as The Taken King, but it still added quite a bit of stuff to the game.

2016′s winter event was called The Dawning. Alongside a few new little quests and some new gear, the Sparrow Racing League makes a return, featuring two new circuits and loads more Sparrow-themed goodies to get. It also introduced a new currency called Silver Dust, which let you buy all sorts of weird and specific items from the Silver Dust kiosk. Lemme tell you, SRL was a good way to rank up in the Crucible and quickly get good gear.

This finally brings us to Destiny’s final update, the Age of Triumph, which released on March 28th. This introduced new hard mode playlists for story missions, raids, and Challenge of Elders, as well as raid-specific loot to obtain. It also has a giant record book full of challenges and accomplishments to fill out.

SEE YOU STARSIDE

Destiny is one of those games I gave up on originally. I became bored of it a couple of weeks after launch. But when I picked it back up in March of 2016, I was kinda stunned to see how much better the game had become a year and a half later. I legitimately had a hard time putting it down. I eventually got my friends to get back into it as well, and we had a load of fun tackling the more difficult challenges in the game.

I dunno. After being such a dedicated Halo fan up until it changed hands, and after finding both Halo 4 and the original Destiny to be disappointing, I was feeling pretty down about Bungie and their 10 year plan for this new franchise. But I’m glad it bounced back, I’m glad I’m able to say that Destiny is a great game you ought to play, especially if you can find a good group to play the raids with.

If you’re going to buy the game, I’d recommend the “Destiny: The Collection” edition, as it includes all of the game’s content in one bundle. It’s regularly on sale for $40 or less for brand new as well. Buying it used might not be a good idea, as the codes for the expansions will likely have been used, requiring you to buy them digitally for full price.

If you only have a 360 or PS3, the Taken King version of the game comes with everything up until right before Rise of Iron came out and is typically less than $20, especially in Gamestops I’ve noticed. Plus, you can always move your character to the current-gen version of the game if you choose to upgrade in the future.

Regardless, please give Destiny a chance! I know Destiny 2 is on it’s way, but this game is also a good time and worth checking out. Thank you for reading!

Whatever you need to know about fpv racing drone

First-person view (FPV) trip is among one of the most exciting, immersive ways to fly a drone, which has actually been skyrocketing in popularity throughout the drone sector. This newest form of drone innovation has opened the opportunities in a variety of fields like FPV drone flying, drone racing, search and rescue goals, and also farming applications. In the current climate, FPV modern technology isn't simply limited to self-built personalized drones; ready-to-fly drones can be integrated with FPV safety glasses, headsets, smartphone tools, and also other screens to provide an exciting flying experience. If you're aiming to find out about FPV drone flying, FPV drone elements, unique applications, as well as specialized drone recommendations, this is the short article for you.

What Are FPV Drones?

FPV drones have actually been a big breakthrough in the drone market, which has provided read-to-fly (RTF) drones as well as FPV googles a normal spot in the consumer drone market.

The initial point to take into consideration is just how FPV drones work. A standard FPV setup includes a FPV drone camera, which is connected to a video transmitter that sends an online video clip from the drone to FPV goggles, headsets, mobile phone gadgets, or other display screens, opening a brand-new globe of unmatched trip experience.

PV Drone Applications

FPV Freestyle

Impressive maneuvers like turns, rolls, as well as various other trip combinations have become a crucial element of drone freestyle, which is a relatively brand-new area that has actually drawn in lots of professional pilots. FPV freestyle presses the boundary of normal drone flight, highlighting response times, technology development, and also airborne freedom.

youtube

Search as well as Rescue (SAR).

SAR has actually become a significantly made use of drone application many thanks to the growth of FPV technology. SAR teams can delegate team members with details duties-- one pilot can focus solely on FPV trip-- while another cam operator can conduct an independent search using a devoted 2nd video camera.

Farming.

FPV drones help farming procedures by offering a specialized FPV feed to drone pilots. This enables the second camera or imaging device to be used for various other operations like capturing NDVI information, mapping photos, or gathering other precise data. Agricultural FPV drones also enable much easier and also much safer plant splashing as the pilot can automate the flight while checking the live FPV feed.

FPV Drone Flying.

FPV systems combine superhigh frequency antennas, transmitters, receiver signaling modern technology, and also cutting edge cameras to offer you a terrific experience of checking out precisely what the drone's electronic camera sees. This likewise offers the pilot the chance to manage the drone as well as obtain video clip shots that are extremely challenging to get under normal trip operation.

Benefits of FPV Traveling.

FPV systems incorporate radio frequency antennas, transmitters, receiver signaling innovation, and also cutting edge video cameras to give you a great experience of checking out specifically what the drone's camera sees. This also provides the pilot the chance to manage the drone and acquire video clip shots that are incredibly difficult to get under normal flight operation.

An additional big benefit of FPV flying is the feeling you get from seeing every weave through the cam's point of view. This feeling is not just very fun, yet it also enables the pilot to manage the drone with even more accuracy as well as precision.

For airborne digital photography as well as videography, FPV modern technology gives you a totally brand-new perspective of the globe. This technology assists improve your shot structure and provides extra chance for developing vibrant material.

FPV Drone Racing.

Drone auto racing is a brand-new sport which has removed at both amateur as well as specialist degrees. The sport is relatively new, however racing drone because of its popularity amongst followers and also enrollers, the official Drone Competing Organization (DRL) has actually ended up being a normal feature on sporting activities networks such as ESPN as well as Skies Sports. In this spectacle, FPV drones are flown around tough courses with the aim of completing it as promptly as feasible. In the hands of a few of the globes most knowledgeable pilots, FPV drone racing is becoming an incredibly interesting sporting activity to follow.

Elements of an FPV auto racing drone.

Unlike RTF drones, FPV racing drones use more versatility for customization, offering FPV racers the opportunity to change or upgrade their drone depending upon their preference. In this area, we'll experience racing drone components as well as learn about FPV systems.

Flight system.

Frame: The framework is the primary structure of the drone where the other elements are mounted onto. The framework is generally a light-weight x-shaped area made from carbon fiber.

Motors: The motors are installed to the arms of the structure prepared to power the propellers. Normally, brushless motors are used for FPV drones since they use high power outcomes and effectiveness.

Propellers: Competing drones often tend to have 3-bladed propellers, which come in varying pitches depending on the power and also weight of the drone. The props are spun at broadband by the electric motors to produce thrust.

Trip Controller (FC): This is the brain of any kind of drone. Simply put, it transforms the inputs the pilot makes on the controller penetrates signals for the electronic speed controllers (ESC), while also taking into account data from a gyroscope and trip formulas. FCs can be linked to software in order to tailor drone residential properties and also influence just how they react to specific inputs detected by the gyroscope.

Electronic Rate Controllers (ESC): The ESC translates the electrical signal created by the FC and also gives the ideal current to every electric motor to generate thrust. 4-in-1 speed controllers are now typically in use, providing enhancements in drone weight and also layout.

Power System.

Power Circulation Board (PDB): The PDB distributes power from the battery to all the drone parts. It is specifically crucial in managing the voltage to the ESCs in order to regulate the speed of the motors.

Batteries: Lithium polymer batteries (LiPo) include a high discharge rate and power density, which makes them perfect for FPV drones. LiPo batteries are additionally lightweight, making them suitable for an FPV drone setup.

FPV system.

Transmitter: An FPV drone transmitter equates radio signals from a remote controller to the actual movement of drone's blades, offering the pilot control over the throttle, pitch, roll, and also yaw. The transmitter sends out commands with channels, and FPV drones with even more networks tend to be much more expensive.

Receiver: The receiver collects the information sent from the transmitter and relays the details to the FC. A VTX video clip transmitter is attached to your drone's camera and sends a video clip signal to FPV safety glasses, headsets, and other displays in actual time.

FPV video camera: This part is what enables you to take pleasure in an FPV view from your drone. The FPV electronic camera is mounted on the drone and also connects to a video transmitter.

Antenna: The antenna relays the signal from the video transmitter and also is tuned to a specific superhigh frequency for FPV racing drones.

FPV Goggles: The video clip transmitter sends out a signal that is gotten by the antenna on the FPV goggles. The video receiver on the FPV goggles then shows this on the display, providing the pilot an immersive experience.

FPV drones open the actual capacity of your drone, giving you increased trip accuracy as well as fine control to record better video from the air. FPV drones aren't just for capturing images either-- search as well as rescue groups, farming pilots, and drone racers are all strapping on FPV safety glasses, headsets, and also utilizing various other FPV displays to enhance their trip experience as well as efficiency. Ready-to-fly drones are effective, creative machines straight out of the box, and when paired with DJI Goggles, they can be changed right into immersive FPV drones for every person to experience. With live HD FPV feeds, progressed transmission modules, and low latency, DJI Safety glasses supply an unrivaled FPV sensation. It's time to experience it for yourself.

5 Reasons Not To Be Too Impressed By Alexander Hamilton

Don’t get me wrong, Alexander Hamilton was an impressive guy. He was a smart guy and accomplished many things others have only and will only dream of, but if you read his biography or watched Hamilton the musical and walked away thinking, “I’m such a loser compared to Alexander Hamilton,” here are a few things to keep in mind when comparing yourself to Alexander Hamilton.

1. You probably know how to use a computer, a cell phone, drive a car, turn on a TV, use a car radio, and maybe even fly a drone. You have had to learn how to use one computer after another, and how many different cell phones have you had in your life? Alexander Hamilton never even had to learn how to type. The typewriter was invented 20 years after his death. Imagine what you could learn or accomplish without having to learn how to type on a Blackberry only to have that skill made completely obsolete 5 years later?

2. Hamilton wrote the bulk of the Federalist Papers and was one of the authors of the Constitution, but he didn’t have to know how to spell. People in Hamilton’s time could really just make up their own spelling for most words. If you didn’t know how to spell something... you just spelled it the way you wanted to spell it. Alexander Hamilton was no different. He even misspelled Pennsylvania in the Constitution. Imagine how much brain power and stress you would save not worrying about spelling or correcting auto-correct.

3. Hamilton made his name in New York City, arriving a nobody orphan and working his way up to be one of the most important figures of the American Revolution. It’s impressive, but... a little less impressive if you know that there were only around 25k people living in New York at the time, many of them illiterate and or indentured servants and slaves. When I went to the University of Georgia, there were 40k+ undergraduates, and almost all of us could read. The population of New York City now is 18.8million. Basically, even the big pond was a small pond back then, and it’s always easier to make a big splash in a small pond.

4. He was constantly buzzed. Everyone was a little drunk almost all the time back then. How much confidence do you have in your ideas when you’re a little buzzed? Now imagine being buzzed all the time, that being cool with your boss, and everyone else. Plus, you don’t have to worry about getting a DUI, because cars haven’t been invented. I’m pretty sure I’ve solved at least half the worlds problems while I was drunk, but I never stayed drunk long enough to start a new country or something.

5. There was no Internet. There were no movies. There were no TV shows. No streaming services- Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+... nothing. There weren’t even that many good books back then: The Bible, Shakespeare, Homer, and maybe some erotic pamphlets from Benjamin Franklin. That was it. Hamilton was never tempted to surf the web endlessly while watching all 13 seasons of Murder She Wrote- something that’s almost impossible to not do if you’re buzzed. The fact that you get anything done is a major accomplishment.

If you still feel inadequate next to Alexander Hamilton, just remember. He never made a gif or a meme. He didn’t even know what those things were!
