GRG Community Night 10/25

I am up for anything Division, ghost Recon or Destiny related. Although I may need to re-install destiny 2 lol

I need 3 nf and I really want to get the raid on at least one char this week. Send me an inv if you see me on, if I’m in a pug I can drop out or kick someone. I have all the mechanics except gauntlet down and I think I can pull off the no ads cheese for Calus if push comes to shove.

Ill be on tonight. putting laps in forza 7, or shooting baddies in fortnight.

I’m getting the impression fortnight may be the new shiny penny since D2 is a bit flat. I guess I’ll have to download it so I can try and sit at the cool kids table.

I’m not sure if it will be or not. It’s just a free toy to play with. Battlegrounds will probably see more activity from GRG. Same game but a more realistic graphic style.

We started a late run at the raid. Did the Bath house. It’s not too bad, especially once I figured out how to bring down those yellows.

We had @Volturnus07 @beers_and_leafs @ezekielJP @mnvikesfan @Grex. I got the Raid Auto Rifle.

Whew. Big turn-out for PS4.

Started with @anon92806648, @Partho23, @mnvikesfan, @Scuba_Steve1984, @DuvalFunk and me - headed into Baths.
Then @LudwigVonTokkenTakke swapped in for Vikes and we managed to clear it.

Went on to Pleasure Gardens, figured out some mechanics but by then a few had to leave.
We added @KirK32 and @galaxy5oo around then and @Nixons_mojo a little later, then picked up a few more from LFG after I tried all the remaining online GRG members who were playing D2.

Never made it out of Pleasure Gardens but I think we had it figured by the end.

Long night for me but it was great to see so many GRG out and no-one getting stressed or frustrated in the painful Raid mechanics.

Had a good time tonight. Definitely great to play with so many PS4 players. We’ll get even farther next time!

I agree with you there. PUBG will def be a bigger draw.

I wouldn’t count on seeeing PUBG this year after what I read on twitter yesterday. New engine, lots of new bugs, small team. It’s not looking promising. Instead of saying 1.0 will be out this year they are now saying they are gonna try.

Had a great time last night! It was nice grouping up with a bunch of clan mates that refused to let stress get to them. @mnvikesfan remained calm and collected (even with me falling down holes a few times and mixing up directions when calling out those nasty yellows in the center) while guiding us through multiple attempts of the bath house before having to step out for the night. @LudwigVonTokkenTakke jumped in and after a few more attempts we made it through. For many of us, this was a completely new experience, but it was fun nonetheless.

By the time we hit the pleasure gardens, I know a few of us were ready to be done for the night. I have to say, this Raid is the hardest I’ve faced, not necessarily because the baddies are difficult, but because of the mechanics and coordination required in order to not be “auto-killed”. It seems as if it doesn’t really matter how good you are at killing, you have to be a well-oiled machine in order to progress. Additionally, the rewards do not seem to make this a worthwhile struggle given the complexity. The fact that you have to beat the raid to even have the opportunity to turn in tokens is disconcerting at best.

Either way, I still had a blast with a great group of clan mates. Sorry to hear you still didn’t make it through, but I am up for another attempt this week, or before the reset!

Good to hear you guys got through the bath house as well.

I hear you about the raid. It’s all about Precision, timing and EVERYONE doing their part. There is no margin of error for a single player. It’s a little frustrating.

Thanks for guiding us! Unfortunately, out of the 8 Engrams I received, none were Raid Gear… What a let down…

You won’t get raid gear from engram drops in the raid. You’ll have a very small percentage to get a drop if you complete a section. Mostly you get tokens that you can’t use unless you fully complete a raid.

It’s a shitty reward system for a raid that requires such precision.

Yay…
