Raid Purity Pledge! (DBO)
by Kermit , Raleigh, NC, Thursday, September 03, 2015, 13:29 (3379 days ago)
Are you determined not to have the raid spoiled this time? Do you want to explore with others without having watched the trailers, read the strategies, or watched any gameplay videos?
Take the Raid Purity Pledge!
I, _______, will not expose myself to King's Fall spoilers until I have finished the raid with others who have likewise pledged.
Posting "I pledge" below will serve as your word. (Also indicate your platform of choice in the text.)
I'm going to set something up beginning on the 23rd with the assumption that we can play in shifts over the course of several days. (This is for the folks who have time over the course of several evenings and the following weekend, but who won't have time to try to do it all in one sitting like some are doing.) My event will be for the Xbox One, but of course others can schedule similar events on other platforms.

I will take this pledge. Though I may have to back out of real life stuff comes up.

Definitely will be joining your event. Starting Destiny so late, I've never done a Raid with others for the first time. It's the main selling point of TTK for me. Really looking forward to it!
I'm kinda in (small caveat)

If there is an xbone raid on the 18th, I'll likely join that and run it. So, if that doesn't happen, I'll be in for your run.

I hope I'm ready by then! I would love to experience a Raid fresh, long as it may take. I never did that with the other two. I was "almost fresh" for the Vault, but one guy on our team had Datto on his computer while we played in case we got stuck. :P I also would like to join a team of people who play late over several days. I don't have 6+ hours in the middle of the day to play. :)

Sounds interesting. I'd also like to get some people willing to participate in a video podcast or possible livestream of the new raid, also with an unspoiled group. Took us too long to get into them last few times-- everybody else had already played them before we got in!

The likely schedule for me:
by Kermit , Raleigh, NC, Thursday, September 03, 2015, 16:15 (3379 days ago) @ Kermit
(on the Xbone)
9/23 9-11 EDT
9/24 9-11 EDT
9/25 9-12 EDT
9/26 Flex (whenever everyone is free--I plan to have a big chunk of the day free)
9/27 Flex (whenever everyone is free--I plan to have a big chunk of the day free)
9/28 9-? (clean up)
This might be bumped to start on the 18th if I decide requirements make it reasonable to try that soon.
Going by past experience
by Kermit , Raleigh, NC, Thursday, September 03, 2015, 16:19 (3379 days ago) @ Kermit
It might seem odd to some to have that much time blocked off, but it's based on what really happened when the newbie group I was with played. We racked up 14 hours, total.

My wife and I are expecting to have a child by the 24th, so the 18th would be better for me :)

Dr. Murphy says she'll go into labor shortly after you start the raid.

lol, perhaps. The official due date is Oct 2nd, but the Dr said the baby is measuring ahead of schedule, so they will induce on the 24th if she hasn't gone into labor yet.

I'd like to do it on release. Unfortunately my regulars will 100% want to spoil it, so I'm at a bit of a loss. If there's one scheduled before my regular group runs it I'm in.

People keep saying they'll do it upon release, but does everyone expect to have all of the REST of TTK done by then? Chew your food, folks.

by cheapLEY , Thursday, September 03, 2015, 18:04 (3379 days ago) @ Kermit
Heh. That's my biggest issue. I'm not convinced I'll be ready by the 23rd, but I'm going to try!
I pledge! Ish... (PS4)
by Kermit , Raleigh, NC, Friday, September 04, 2015, 15:56 (3378 days ago) @ cheapLEY
I might even be ready on the 18th. I'm thinking of taking the 15th off and if I do that I might have finished most of the other TTK content, but that's not really my preference, and if Destiny is still Destiny, I'll still have stuff to upgrade in order to be truly ready.
My original plan was the schedule something for around the 30th. I didn't tackle VoG until almost of a month after the game came out, so that's not so strange, but we were all less raid-savvy back then and most of us were in the protracted 20-26 leveling process. If I knew I could get a dedicated team of non-spoiled DBOers to start on the 30th, that would be my preference.
Since I don't know that, I thought starting on the 23rd might be a good compromise--the more eager of you don't have to wait too long, and those of us with less time to digest the new content have a little more time.
Thoughts?

I'd love to wait. I wish there was a longer gap between TTK and raid release. Undortunately only one of my friends is of the same mind. The rest are impatient, and will give me the choice of Raid Now(!) or have my space filled and potentially miss out in the future if I'm replaced.
I use the word "friends" lightly, obviously. It's a marriage of GMT convenience.

by TheeChaos , Thursday, September 03, 2015, 18:12 (3379 days ago) @ someotherguy
I am in the same boat. I really want to go into this Raid blind. I have never ran a blind raid. Its always been directed. Which is fine im glad I found help here, but I feel like im getting robbed from the glamour of a blind raid.
By the looks of it we both may be able to run it that Friday at 11 if the time doesnt change. It appears Dogwoof will have a date at that time.
Also I too wish there was about a full week between the raid release and TTK release. Its almost like they want me to take those 3 days off....

It's poasible. That's 4am for me though. Will have to go to bed early and get up for it, which I'm totally willing to do, but it still hinges on whether my "friends" want to rush into it the second I get home from work.
Honestly, I'd rather do it with you guys.

I might have already got those days off. Maybe. Because I'm the worst.

I thought about taking them off. But I would still have my daughter because she doesnt start school till the following monday. so I wouldnt even be able to play.
I'm in. (PS4)
