The writing is terrible. They could put the best voice actor ever but he'd sound horrible because of how bad the dialogue is written.
Well I don't have a problem with the way its written. It is one of those things I am not all that upset about.Yep, this is pretty much it. The lore may have depth, but the story telling is pretty awful.
I got a shard from an engram once or twice. I ended up having to buy my third legendary piece. Now I have the legs, body, and gauntlets. My cryptarch rank is almost up to 9 now.Got lucky when my cryptarch hit level 7 with a purple helmet engram that actually decoded into a real legendary. Maybe I can hit level 27 without ascendant shards now. I'm finding those to be a real bitch to get my hands on. I haven't gotten any from public events. The Daily heroic didn't give me one either. I'm down to playing a bunch of matches in the crucible for them now. I hear you can get them in the raid too, but I'm still having no luck getting a team together for that.
Nope, takes about 11-15 hours to hit level 20. But it took me twice that again to hit level 25. I have about 34 hours total and just hit 25 today.
But since endgame leveling is so loot dependant, somewhat difficult to gauge how long that will take.
Eh, crucible is not really item or level dependant. Level 20 or level 5, you will get killed by either one just as quickly if they know the maps and use their radar.2. Crucible matches are not exactly even. Me going against a level 20 person is basically suicide. To combat that I just sit in turrets and snipe most of the time. Crucible is a little boring anyway. Have not been blown away. COD and halo are way better in that department.

I guess some of the classes must have shields then. it looked like only the level 20 guys had shield that had to be broken before getting to their health. I am playing as a titan. There were some people that I would be laying into and barely scratch them.
The game does not do a great tutorial.
upgrade toughness, agility, and recovery still apply in crucible
I think various class abilities can convey shields. I know that Warlocks have the flame shield ability under the sunsinger class. Titans have the dome shaped shield that also conveys a personal shield when the player steps out of it's protection. I don't know what hunters have.
I think he's referring to the standard shield you have as a character that enemies have to break down before your health is exposed.
Yeah the only advantage I can see is that the higher level players will have unlocked more class abilities. I wonder if the passive abilities that upgrade toughness, agility, and recovery still apply in crucible. That could be a real advantage over low level players as well.

I'm a hunter and still trying to figure that out. Think I'll probably start a new character, not terribly fond of the hunter class.
I think hunter ends up the best end game. But, they really need to buff gunslinger, as the golden gun sucks. When you have a sniper rifle that hits harder and regenerates ammo, there is no reason to use gunslinger...
I really like warlock and I played a titan in beta and enjoyed that too. I am not familiar with hunter all that much, but I did a level 24 strike with two people and the second one happened to be a hunter and whatever he was doing was kick ass cause his survivability was incredible.
Everytime I create a fire team I can nvever chat with anyone on the team. I can hear them talking but they can't hear me.
Is there something in the kinect options or privacy setting for me to communicate. I tested the kinect mic on skype and it is working normally.
Anyone run into this?
Some of the blade dancer traits are amazing for getting out of situations. You can get like 3 or 4 skills that make you invisible. You can also have a skill that your super heals you as you hit enemies, which is really nice when you charge into a pile and start taking them out.
Maybe that's because he is so well known. You put a face with the voice. Other VAs don't really have the same impression upon hearing them. At least to me anyway.
My only complaint with the voice acting is that Dinklege is so recognizable. I always think "Oh, great. Tyrion Robannister is about to tell me something." Had they thrown in some kind of subtle humor referencing that, I'd be much more inclined to like him. Something like one of the characters referring him to as some sort of imp on your shoulder. Look at the other greatly voiced characters in games: they aren't well know people. David Hayter is Solid Snake. He's been in movies? Who cares? Or Cortana. I don't even know her real name, she is Cortana.
