Nope, he just has a bad addiction to Destiny. Sometimes he'll do like four or five raids in one day and he has actually done one of the raids 142 times so far.

All you need is a mic to let each other know who is doing what and it should be fine, I really don't see any problem there.

Crota isn't that difficult, its just a glorified strike. Me and my mate got past that first bit with barely any trouble on our own. We very nearly did the whole raid as a fireteam of three until this other guy rage quit for no reason.

The first section of Crota, the abyss bit was very easy to solo as a hunter with some fancy gear on. I haven't played the newer raid, King's Fall or whatever it's called but that was supposed to be better...?

Yeah that bit was easy to solo but IIRC all you needed was one retard and it would make your whole party wipe.

Tom Clancy's The Division is in Open Beta today on Xbox One, tomorrow on PC and PS4.

Got it downloaded, it looks awesome. Waiting another day isn't fun.

Started playing Witcher III the other night. Surprised by how meaty it is, had plenty of quests that were several hours long. The gwent minigame in it is really fun too.

I've just been playing that for a couple of hours. I like it so far, nice open world where you can just walk up to a mission/encounter without having to go through loading screens.

RIP your social life.

Honestly, its so good I kind of wish I'd never played it, its killed other RPGs for me.

I spend about 1000 hours every year playing FM, so it's not as if I had much of a social life to begin with.

Yeah I have it, and play a lot...pretty sure i have you on there already too.

Also back to the Destiny talk, I'm one of those that is a slave to it. Still play very regularly and I don't even know why. I still have Fallout 4 and Witcher 3 but havent even started them really. Everytime i have a spare moment I almost always go on either FIFA, Destiny or Rocket League.

Also yeah the new raid is good, definitely a huge step up from Crota but VoG is still my personal favourite. The new one is also the one that requires the most communication... its vital to pretty much every encounter.

Has the Taken King reduced in price yet? That was one of the sticking points for me when it was released.

My mate bought Black Ops 3 and Fallout 4 on release but hasn't even played them yet due to a Destiny addiction, Fallout is still in its packaging

Yeah I haven't started Witcher 3 at all and I have about 6 hours on Fallout. I'll have loads more free time over the summer so will probably delve into them then seeing as Destiny won't be getting a new raid until autumn.

EA well and truly putting their foot in their mouth this week, announcing they're working to remove Johnson from FIFA the same week they announce Mike Tyson as a playable character in UFC 2

Been playing The Division quite a bit today. Only problem i've encountered is it has quit to the main menu on its own twice, apart from that its been great so far.

I had to go to work but I did some this morning and have done all afternoon since I came back.

Absolutely awesome, apart from a couple of random disconnections.

Those random disconnections have gone now. Anyone else been in the Dark Zone on The Division? I love it, elite enemies everywhere.

I went in there as a Level 9 or 10 and I got completely fucked.

I'm Level 25 now so I might venture in there again soon. Looking forward to it!

I went in at somewhere around level 16/17 and was fine on my own so you'll be ok at 25. I just look for groups of AI enemies fighting each other and pick them off when they're low on health or i'm in a good sniping spot. I got my dark zone level up 10 times in about 15 minutes doing that.

I just downloaded Lords of The Fallen because it is currently free on Xbox Live. What a load of crap, it's almost an exact clone of Dark Souls. Even the controls and button combinations are identical, the only difference being these ones are clunky and slow. You'd be much better off just sticking to Dark Souls.
