Destiny News

The agony! The jubilation! The drama and disappointment! I have reached the top of Destiny mountain, and the view is spectacular. It was a pain in the ass getting here, but I guess that was the point.

It’s hosted by Wil Wheaton and features Bungie co-founderJason Jones, design director Luke Smith, senior environment animator Jason Sussman and technical art director Ryan Ellis talking all about the Destiny universe and beyond.

Destiny’s ultimate goal is to be a changing, expanding world that evolves over time, but for many fans, it’s not changing nearly fast enough. I’m not talking about the pace at which new content is added. With two or three major pieces of DLC a year.

In Destiny’s competitive Crucible multiplayer, the most fearsome foe you’ll face isn’t a flame-slinging warlock or a knife-throwing hunter—it’s lag.

Destiny's House of Wolves DLC has been quite an upgrade over the original game from Bungie. The new DLC – the newer one being the upcoming Taken King DLC – has effectively increased the maximum Light level

To prove that “The Taken King is more than DLC – it’s a game,” Bungie will be using their Weekly Updates going forward to share insight into how they’re updating Destiny this September, highlighting key features and content along the way.

First and foremost there are new story missions included in The Taken King as well as multiple side missions which reveal the story of the Guardian’s battle to defend the solar system against Oryx and his Taken army.

As reported by Kotaku, people have figured out the algorithm that makes these codes work and are now self-generating Red Bull codes without the need to trek over to a 7-Eleven. AT first glance, this seems harmless: a few less cans of Red Bull sold.

PlayStation and Xbox owners may be disappointed that there’s no “House of Wolves” Exotic to purchase this week, but the selection is surprisingly not bad, all things considered.

It was not always this way. Once, the game was planned to be much funnier, something that would doubtless have made it more fun, and therefore better. Speaking to IGN UK, Arrested Development and Mr. Show actor David Cross spilled the beans.

But there’s also the possibility that one console is going to get a smattering of new content besides that this fall. At last, Xbox One’s day will finally have come after a year’s worth of Sony Destiny exclusives jammed into the base game and two expansions.

Update: Bungie posted on Twitter that the problems with Iron Banner should be resolved. Players should now be receiving reputation and rewards from Iron Banner games at the conclusion of matches, as usual.
