Hishoa Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) One of the many unlisted changes in the most recent patchnotes. Give it a try. It can be done for any of your three characters and works real-time (e.g. while playing Destiny) and even allows you to split item stacks. Note that you can't move items from character to character; the vault is still the middle-man. Edited February 26, 2015 by Hishoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doge Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Now if Bungie could add a way to buy items from Xur using the app that would be great. I could take my coins out and buy something when I'm away from home or not on the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandoras Virus Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 If bungie would make a companion app for windows phone that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could take my coins out and buy something when I'm away from home or not on the game. Yeah, let's push people out of the game some more. Instead of growing this damn companion app, I'd rather see this energy used to streamline the in-game experience. We could eliminate the need for the majority of vault access via more streamlined menu options, or (you heard it here first), a larger inventory. How about being able to access the map via our inventory screens as opposed to dicking around in orbit, which should really only be necessary for setting up a fireteam/private match. I'm surprised there aren't adds on the companion app considering how hard they go out of their way to force us to it. I'm beginning to wonder if this was meant to be a mobile game all along and the FPS bit was added in with the day one update.

Shinobi273 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 This is a great feature. Being able to manage all my characters using my laptop is huge. I have been building identical load outs across all three characters so they could just drop in to raid without any need to transfer at the tower.

Merch Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 This is great. Makes switching gear between my acts much more intuitive.

It would have been nice if they eliminated the tower completely and let you do everything from the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edword Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 While not something I think was totally needed I do appreciate this. I would much rather have them add a feature of accessing the vault from orbit instead of using the app, but at least this can speed things up. Now for the vault space to increase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruddy Click Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I just lost a fully upgraded MURMUR using this. I moved it to the vault and then went with my other character to pick it up and guess what it's gone from the vault with nowhere to be found nore is it with any other character, this is some serious BS. I bet I won't be getting this back.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hishoa Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 And for what it's worth, it seems people are losing items when they transfer inbetween lives in a Darkness Zone. So let's not do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hishoa Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 So if someone is out of town or can't access their game they shouldn't have options?? Destiny is a console game. Expecting to be able to do everything you can in the Tower on a smartphone will take out any reason to go to the tower. Surely you can understand why Bungie doesn't want that to happen. If you're out of town or can't play your game, well.. tough luck. Should I have had access to WoW on my smartphone when there were timed events? I sure don't think so; more times than not I knew when these events were and could work them into my schedule, as are you are able to do with Xur. If you feel Xur is more important than whatever reason it is you have to be out of town, that's entirely up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruddy Click Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 This. And are you sure it got moved to the vault? I noticed this happened to me only to find out my vault was full without knowing it. I get where you're coming from dude but the weapons section of my vault is never full. This weapon has completely disappeared, it's not in my vault or with any of my characters. I know it's only one weapon but it's a weapon I always use when playing. I'm seriously pissed off right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean shit you can already move items around with the app why not purchase items from vendors? Also just because they would have these options on the app doesn't mean the Tower would be obsolete.

Kirbster117 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Allowing you to use the mobile vault is an addition to the game without you being on the game already it seems pretty pointless. Allowing you to use vendors is a replacement allowing you to do skip coming on the game entirely, something that I doubt Bungie wants. I'd be surprised if they did allow mobile access to vendors (and I don't think they should be able to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hishoa Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Also just because they would have these options on the app doesn't mean the Tower would be obsolete. Use your head please. Uh, yes it would. Why would anyone bother going to The Tower if they could purchase materials, bounties, shaders, or anything else that the vendors have to offer from their phones? Literally the only reasons people would go to the Tower at that point would be to turn in bounties, collect Postmaster rewards or decrypt engrams. But looking at what you've already said, I bet you also want to be able to do those very things from your phone as well which would make the Tower about as useful as the Reef. I really doubt Bungie would want to make the Vanguard Hall, the Hanger and the Speaker's area completely pointless. Or do you disagree? Use your head please. http://i.imgur.com/I15tFYf.png Edited March 1, 2015 by Hishoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
