Tubes updated (Destiny)

My series of tubes has been fixed. Sorry for all the dropping this past few days guys. It's fixed now, and I'd love to run trials tonight.

For those who have gone to the lighthouse this week, please share your thoughts, but what I've learned is:

1. High Impact pulse rifles seem very very good for this week's map. Messenger, Red Death, Three Little Words, etc.
2. All the sniper lanes have at least two ways to approach safely from the side, so there's not much reason to get sniped.
3. You do not want to get cornered in the church.
4. Don't be a sucker and get sniped on the Alpha side heavy ammo. Notice my teammate running distraction to the right :-D
5. Seems the high side by the red stairs is a great place to fortify and hold up.
6. You can easily tripmine the red stairs for easy defense.

I used The Messenger the whole time.

It worked well for me.

Something else I found was that while sniping has benefits in this map, there's usually enough cover so you can play it basically however you want. If you're a team of Felwinter's Lie, Last Word, Striker titans, you can do well in this map. If you're a team of filthy bladedancing snipers, you pieces of crap, you can do well in this map.

The basic strategy that seems to work is snipe one guy, then run at them very quickly. At least, that's what I like to do. I played with Monochrone and Unoudid today, too, but their strategies of stay far away and snipe also totally worked. We hit 8 twice this morning, but no lighthouse.

So, on the non cliff side, you can basically run all the way down to the edge by the church completely in cover. For the cliff side, the ruined building ends up being a good piece of cover.

Also, if you must, you CAN let yourself be cornered in the church if you look at the doors and you're the only one left. The rest of the map is too long range for you to be helpful.

Can confirm: snipe and rush works wonders

Got trampled by it every single time.
