Story Missions that provide a random piece of gear are bounties that Petra Venj sells each weak. They unlock missions tied to the Dreaming City. Depending on the strength of the curse, one of these three missions can be completed once a week per character. Finishing one of these three missions allows players to turn it in for Dreaming City g

Rise of Iron was the final expansion for the first Destiny game. While it was by no means a bad addition, it felt like a bit of an anticlimax. By this point, Bungie knew exactly what they were doing and which areas they needed to focus on, but it was a bare minimum type of effort rather than an attempt to go out with an emphatic b

**Destiny 2 ** continues to implement new ways to improve and repurpose old content as time goes on. Before the Season of the Chosen began, Bungie had confirmed that four Dreaming City weapons would be returning to the weapon pool, leaving three to be unobtained. These four weapons could only be acquired through activities completed in the Dreaming C

It took six years since EA got the exclusive rights to develop Star Wars console games, but last year we finally got our first, full-fledged action-adventure game from them. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order delighted with its story, gameplay and world design. Despite this, there were a few technical problems. In addition to bugs, glitches and frame rate issues, the game also suffered from, you guessed it, long loading times. This was particularly true when traveling between planets. Luckily, PS5 presents so much needed to boosts to load times.

Ubisoft’s already large open worlds continued to expand exponentially throughout the PS4 generation. It all started with Caribbean in 2013 and ended with all of Ancient Greece in 2018. Assassin’s Creed Odyssey delivered Ancient Greece in an extremely-detailed way, which also meant some extremely-long load times. Getting into the game could take minutes, and even worse, getting around quickly or back into the game after death also cost precious time. PS5 mostly solves this, shaving off about 10 seconds when first booting up the game, and bringing the load time into the game well under a minute.

To prevent the teleportation and extend the DPS (damage per second) phase, one Guardian needs to stand where the Templar will teleport to. This location is indicated by a ring, similar to the ring at the very beginning of the Vault of Glass. There is a catch, however, because preventing the Templar from teleporting will spawn in Minotaurs. Allowing the Templar to teleport results in a large horde of weaker enemies spawning. Preventing the Templar from teleporting can be done at any time, so it's up to the team to decide how they want to defeat this b

Cold Front’s secondary perk for PvP is largely negligible, though, the consensus seems to indicate Rampage is the most coveted despite the time to kill in Crucible. Thresh, on the other hand, provides Super Energy with each kill, which gives players more uses of their Super in a match depending on how well they’re doing with defeating opponents. For a more consistent output, Thresh is the less demanding perk. For more aggressive Guardians, though, Rampage is the way to

To that end, the first roll for which Guardians should aim is Extended Barrel, which offers Cold Front more range, handling (able to pull the weapon out faster), and stability to control that pesky recoil common in SMGs. This gives Guardians more wiggle room when facing multiple enemies at medium or long ranges. Regardless, this weapon is still more useful at medium to close ran

Our 2019 Game of the Year , Capcom’s remake of Resident Evil was an astounding addition to the PS4’s library. Despite being a linear game in a set map, Resident Evil 2 took a long time to load, especially when first booting up the game. While it didn’t reach the horrid minute mark, it always cut it too close. On PS5, the bootup time is cut in half, getting players in faster. There’s not a huge change when loading a save, but there’s at least a slight improvement.

Additionally, two hidden chests in the dungeon will grant a random piece of gear. The first is beyond the Thrall Hallway, requiring players to jump over the railing instead of diverting to the left path. Land on the railing below, turn around and Graviton spike nerf the chest can be found in front of a portal. The second chest is just after the fight against Vorgeth, requiring players to run to the right side of the elevator. This chest will require players to have the Tincture of Queensfoil in order to spawn platforms that form a pathway to the ch

We’ve taken some of PS4’s most popular, and longest-loading titles, and put them to the test on PS5’s SSD. Do note, to get the most out of PS4 titles on PS5, the games have to be installed on the PS5’s SSD. You can still play PS4 games off an external HDD, but you won’t get the load time benefits.

Beyond Light's story ends up somewhat superfluous, with the campaign falling into familiar Destiny storytelling problems. Eramis could have been an interesting villain had the campaign built more empathy towards her. In the end, she's just another generic, mustache-twirling Destiny villain. Beyond Light's campaign boils down to defeating her lieutenants and defeating her, similar to what we already did in Forsaken , except a lot fewer lieutenants and personality. Less interesting describes other elements of the story. After a six-year absence, the Exo-Stranger finally returns, but anything interesting we learn about her lies outside the main campaign. Drifter and Eris Morn are also along for the ride, but ultimately, their presence is negligible. Rather than being active members in the campaign, they're mostly used as set decoration you can interact with every now and again. It also doesn't help just how short the story is, lasting 5-6 hours depending on how fast you can get quality gear. The quest to destroy Eramis doesn't do much to get players invested, but it also doesn't overstay its welcome. It also helps that Bungie learned from Shadowkeep's campaign by cutting out the grinding missions, instead focusing more on narrative missions. It makes for a more entertaining romp than Shadowkeep.
