So you may have already run out of things to do on Destiny.
If you like something "new" to do you could try this "game mode".
So you may be asking, what is this " Survival mode"
On the Crota's end raid at the last part were you form the bridge instead of going towards the light you turn around and you'll see the 3 lamps that are on that part, that's where the Survival mode takes place.
There an endless swarm of enemies will greet you ready to kill you.
The lamp to the right is were you start, that is the easiest side of the three, each lamp is a side.
Our rules are:
[spoiler]Feel free to add your own rules[/spoiler]
Each 5 min you have to change sides.
You can screw with your teammates to be the final champion of the Survival.
Now there are the two difficulties:
Normal: Team based survival, how long can you fight the darkness before it gets you?

Get a team of 6 and do Crota normal mode until Crota himself. Start the fight.
Objective is to hold the Chalice as long as possible. If you hold it, try to flee from your team mates which can steal it from you. Mates try to steal the chalice from each other all the time. When somebody dies, just wipe and on the Deathscreen you can see who's the winner by looking at the time somebody hold the chalice.
Now this isn't a complete game mode and you most likely will have fun with it a few hours but its a nice small thing to do in Destiny.

Bump for later

Dude awesome idea. Please keep the ideas coming. Everyone should try. ~ZerO~

I used to sit here with my still piercer and get rounds back like ammo packs were hovering around my feet. This isn't hard.

"A Funny Thing Happened in Crotas End..." Hot fix incoming, we've noticed some have been battling constant waves of enemies in the lamps section of Crotas End. This is due to a bug that causes the enemies to keep respawning even after a lamp explodes, or the bridge forms. Rest assured we are diligently working on a resolution, so as not to spoil the raiding experience for everyone. We have one of our programmers here to give you the technical details. "Respawn rates on enemies can be a funny thing. We have been messing with a few pieces of code that would fix this issue. As of right now we have a tentative hot fix in place we are ready to deploy. In our tests, we noticed that there is a small side effect that makes Oryx immune to blight detonation and stagger, but after looking at the numbers, we have determined fixing Crotas End should be top priority, and we hope to have a fix for Oryx, sometime next year after the launch of Destiny 2." There you have it folks, straight from the programmers mouths. Expect to see this patch roll out just in time for the Oryx challenge mode to go live.

Now this is a good idea, I'm not hating, but its a little sad that the community has to create things within the game instead of bungievi$ion making things
-
-
"Really? Now you're just mocking me." challenge You must either crouch through the entire thing, or tbag for 5 seconds after killing any major or ultra.

Go into VoG. Wait for Templar to enrage before starting to take him down.
-
sign if you want to nerf survival mode
-
Watch bungie nerf it
-
Pretty bad when players have to create there own way to play to keep themselves entertained because there's nothing for them to do
-
Edited by A 7th Spectrum: 12/3/2015 3:59:31 AMYou know a game is dead when...the players are making their own game modes all by themselves...[spoiler]lol jk good idea i will have to try this sometime[/spoiler]
-
Expect to see this nerfed lol
-
Or you can play Fallout 4.

Edited by Senor Crouch: 12/3/2015 7:54:20 AMI love this idea! I mean this is one of the cooler ideas ever presented on Destiny. It reminds me of Firefight. O, glorious ODST Firefight how I love you. *turns and stares at Bungie* Boy, what does this say about your creative department? Community members making up their own endgame game modes to make up for the lack of endgame activities/endgame activities that were ripped away when TTK dropped. The real question is what do you intend to do from here? I mean here we have groups of Guardians doing nothing but standing in front of gaping darkness shooting endlessly at continuously spawning enemies. Sound familiar? So what will your excuse be this time? Oh I know, why not recycle what you've said in the past, with a few tweaks here and there: [i]"The social experience of a survival game mode is amazing: the herding to get a team of Guardians all behind the line and firing in the right direction, the rush when you nearly die by a pack of thralls, the scramble when you are the last alive, the beckoning glow from the doorway behind you. The speed at which the community organized around this activity was inspiring and humbling to us. But shooting at a black hole for hours on end isn't our dream for how Destiny is played. Our hope is that social engagement in public spaces is only one part of the Destiny experience. Expect changes soon which will despawn all the thrall after the bridge has been completely formed."[/i]

Now that I have your attention. My thoughts on Destiny so far [b]Bungie made great strides with TTK[/b] Story line is better Missions more diverse Better leveling system Kings fall Trials Some exotics The quest line system is grindy but great Black spindle secret is more of what they need [b]Where they F[u]U[/u]CKED UP[/b] Loot drops for kings fall Loot drops for iron banner Loot drops for trials Lots of reskins of guns armour Weapon parts nerf like what the -blam!- Loot drops for kings fall "Challenge mode" is disappointing Still not communicating with community No in game LFG or match making Loot drops for kings fall Lack of end game content variety Old raids/PoE being left behind Loot drops for kings fall Not really any way to communicate in game Terrible economy Have to mention weapon parts nerf again Loot drops in kings fall Many boring exotics Pointless exotics Time hating exotics like seriously? Still only 4 enemy types Did I mention Loot drops in kings fall???? As you can see there's a long list to improve on. Sometimes they have a lack of creativity I've never seen before, there are so many posts in the forums that give great ideas for how to improve the game. People NOT PAID to create the game are giving better ideas than what bungie is doing. Either bungie is too lazy to fix this stuff or they're incompetent OR they really are playing us for the fools some people think we are. My two cents
-
And this is why we need lvl 40 crota
-
Awesome
-
Man, I remember spending at least an hour constantly shooting my bad juju without a single reload or a break in firing on that bridge. You need to get this challenge famous
-
Edited by Fawkes: 12/3/2015 4:23:37 AMThis'd looks really fun. Might get the crew together and have some fun

Was the challenge Ride the lighting a refrence to the metallica song or just a spark of chance?

My personal best on hard mode when one guy had a phone call and was at the start was 7 bubbles of super before the dead people were tired of waiting on the guy on the phone. All I did was punch the entire time. This was before HoW was even released. It was the most fun I had because someone else asked me to see if they would kill me before the guy got back. After popping 7 bubbles they all said that I wasn't going to die. So we moved on without the dude on the phone. That guy came back just as we killed Crota. He was excited because he finally got NLB from doing nothing.
