1.2.0 patch goes live today! (Destiny)
starting update now.
Seen forum posts that people are getting prompted to update, so I decided to try that new remote on feature that the smartglass app updated with yesterday. Don't see the prompts since I'm not in front of my tv but I think I got it doing the title update. When destiny becomes launch able I'll then start it up for the content download. Doing it blind so I might get stuck on a input prompt but if all goes well it should all be downloaded the next time I'm at my tv.

This stuff all looks great!
No more Shards from Legendary engrams or packages? Woohoo! :D

What does it mean when it says Hive and Oracle disruptor trigger more often? I thought they triggered every time you hit a major or an oracle…
Important - DO NOT decrypt legendary engrams until Tuesday
As mentioned in the notes, and on twitter, the Cryptarch doesn't know what to do with them so they won't turn into anything. Tuesday it should not only work again, but will be giving new stuff -- and guaranteed not to be shards/energy!

Yeah, that part confused me a little as well...(?)

I believe this was mainly on fast firing weapons if I recall correctly. Weapons would do a large amount of extra damage instead of per hit. This is all from my memory though which can be faulty.

Nope. Every time you hit a major/oracle, you had a % chance to do extra damage, dependant on that weapon's Rate of fire.
You guys seriously didn't notice this?

Once again all signs point to shards and energy being obsolete (except exotic of course)! Super exciting!

No, I never filled in Hive Disruptor… and numbers pop up so fast with corrective measure you can't tell what's bonus damage.

No. I don't look at the numbers each time I pull the trigger, and the Hive Disrupter perk says "Increase damage to Hive Majors" - not that it has a "chance" to.

It wasn't random though, it had a cooldown is all.

Just watched a guy burn a bunch of commendations to get faction packages- and he got a bunch MORE crucible commendations, as well as shards.
Am I missing something?

You only get 1 commendation per package, and it's at 6-7 commendations burned to rank up.
I think I get why it's happening now though- All the old vendor gear is still present, and still needs commendations to buy.
Hold on a second
Did he get more than he started with, or just one every time he ranked up? If only every time he ranked up, then he needed 8-10 spent to get one back.
Does the nightfall rep boost work on these when you turn then in?
Hmm, not really, but I wasn't paying much attention
Suddenly all this talk of "small chance of doing extra damage to Fallen enemies" makes a lot more sense.

...actually, nope! From 1.2.0 patch notes:
Tower
* Faction reward packages will no longer produce Shards
* The Speaker will now exchange Ascendant and Radiant Materials for Glimmer and Motes of Light
* Xûr will now exchange Strange Coins for Motes of Light
* Commendations are no longer required to purchase gear
* Commendations can now be converted to receive +250 gains in Vanguard, Crucible, or Faction reputation
Note: Etheric Light will not be made available for ascending gear until the release of House of Wolves

True, I was just making fun of the situation. I thought that commendations would be going away completely? If not, then I guess I would look at them like a coupon or something.
"Rank up one time and get a 250 points towards your next rank!"

I don't think so.
Hold on a second
Then I would say this is definitely unintended.

Or they meant you don't need commendations to buy HoW gear.

If that were true I believe they would've put the change in the 1.2.0.1 notes instead.
Is material exchange on delay until Tuesday?

Seems the tower hasn't been updated yet if material exchange is also not working. Curious.

So far, they're less like patch notes and more like patch "suggestions".
"They're more like guidelines."

Shader previewer updated.
They've updated with the new shaders that have been found. I really want that Judgement Cast.
I'm nervous
Destiny was crashing for me last night (Kicking me to Xbox home screen). I even got a disc read error at one point.
This is not a good time to have a failing Xbox GUISE!!!!
GUYS! . . . GUIS!!!!!

Or...
Actually if the experience ZackDark and I had earlier is any indication, it's more like you just can't decrypt them. He and I each had an engram in our inventory that didn't actually show up when visiting the Cryptarch. We'd get the green indicator to visit him, but there was nothing available to decrypt.
One thing to note: both of those engrams were blue, not purple. So either the patch notes forgot to mention that blues are included, or something else is going on and this actually isn't related. Until I see the same thing happen with a purple, I can't say for sure.
Hold on a second
Not true, unless somehow one commendation can bring you up a rank,
Hold on a second
Exactly - they have enabled the function to burn commendations for rep, but have NOT removed the commendations from the reward packages. The two changes are logically related, but that doesn't necessarily mean they MUST happen at the same time. Probably they won't get removed from the packages until HoW actually drops.

Patch Notes have been updated - Inaccuracies fixed
The Faction and other Tower stuff has been moved to the Hotfix section, but I thought there were already reports of people dismantling Commendations for Rep? Is that active, but the rest not? Anyone in game checked?

That's what the reports are indicating, dismantling works, but everything still costs Commendations.
True. Dumped all 75 commendations. Can no longer buy stuff.

But more importantly, got a shader.

Why wouldn't you wait until Tuesday?
DON'T JUDGE ME!
I wanted a shader to look cool for your raid later (this honestly entered my head), and I figured this way I'd get at least another level up because it still gives commendations and I can use those again, and also I wanted a field scout Venation which I haven't seen in the new DLC so I wanted to make sure I got one.
I did get a Hanged Man Shader.
I was about to ask that...
Why wouldn't you wait until Tuesday?
If I understand correctly, any missives we get from upgrading rank before tuesday will only yield old rewards, even if we wait until after tuesday to open them.
That's why I've been working on getting my ranks close to rolling over, and leaving them there. So I can rank up all my factions after tuesday and get new loot from the missives.
Do I have that right?
That's correct, AFAIK.

Ether Chests Locations Mapped
Scout rifle damage
The medium damage scout rifle types, VoC and Fang for exmple, no longer one-shot headshot vandals, has anyone else noticed this? I don't know if it's just the crit damage that changed or the overall damage, but vandals require two shots now.
I was about to ask that...
You do, although it's worth noting that if someone wants any of the old gear they're probably better off doing it now. Just depends what you're going for, I guess.
Can you see it in the Destiny app?
I got an engram from an Ether chest today that shows as "CLASSIFIED" in my Destiny Companion app. I have not been able to go to the tower yet so I don't know if it's the same thing
Can you see it in the Destiny app?
No, it seems to be a normal engram in the app. But... aren't you on the beta/preview version? I'm not.
Scout rifle damage
Seems to have been fixed from when I witnessed it this morning, bravo!
