Destiny data miners reveal new missions, strikes, modes, and planet (sort of)

It's described as "Gateway to the Reef, home of the Queen and her Awoken. Entry point for Guardians looking to collect Reef bounties, forge new allegiances and test themselves in the Prison of Elders and Trials of Osiris."

"Taniks-Syn, the Fallen's most notorious mercenary, is leading a strike force on the Moon. Board his Ketch and kill him or he will continue to cut a trail of death across the system."

Sounds a little similar to the Scourge of Winter story mission, which is no bad thing, as that's one of the best missions in the game.

"Scour the Cosmodrome. Find and assassinate the Wolves' Baron and any of his co-conspirators." "Track the House of Wolves through the caldera on Venus. Kill the Wolf pack before their Kell, Skolas, can rally the Fallen House of Winter to his cause." "Skolas has his eyes set on the Vex Citadel on Venus. Capture him before he can plunder the secrets of space and time." "A High Priest of the House of Wolves has been sent to the Hellmouth. Track him and his crew. Stop them from stealing the Hive's darkest secrets." "Locate and eliminate Skolas's elite assassins, the Silent Fang." "A pack of Fallen Wolves is picking a fight with the Vex on Venus. Head along the Shattered Coast and track down the Wolves to uncover Skolas' plan." They're set on Mars, Venus, and Earth, respectively. The Tuned Drive '"upgrades an equipped Sparrow to improve overall speed and durability". Fairly generic description, but hopefully it'll have a fair bit of kick to it. With that many to find and earn, there are bound to be at least a few that don't look like they're made out of garishly coloured Lego.
Insert Quarterly: The Best Game Writing of Winter 2015

Added: 13.04.2015 7:17 | 12 views | 0 comments


Warp Zoned writes: "Maybe it was the blanket of snow that covered the world over the last three months, but Insert Quarter took it slow in Winter 2015. But that doesnt mean our showcase of the best and most interesting writing about video games on the Internet came to a complete standstill. Have you ever wondered why Sony chose X-Circle-Square-Triangle for the face buttons on the PlayStation controller? Or maybe youre worried that Batman: Arkham Knight killed the Teen rating? The answers to those questions (and a few others) can be found in this edition of Insert Quarterly, which catalogs our favorite game writing from the last three months."
