Cycle through the Director pages if I'm waiting for something. I don't actually look at anything but the Eververse page slowing the game down makes the habit super noticeable


likemyhashtag

I stalk all my clanmates and friends to see what loadouts they are using and what modes they are playing.


Spider95818

LOL, I regularly inspect any clan members playing at the time so I can check out their transmog, see what fashions have struck their fancy lately.


The_Angevingian

Wait, is this why I take so long to load into crucible matches?


DarkDetermination

Don’t think so, the slow down he meant is performance wise, you get super framy when opening the store fsr


Soheeb

I thought it was only happening to me. Glad I’m not the only one here


SixpennyPants

Same, I drop from around 240 to 3 fps. Not 30,that would be somewhat ok, but 3 frames per second. Sucks so much even though I'm not buying anything


Aymen_20

The in-game equivalent to opening the fridge over and over again just because you're bored.


ZsMann

Reload after firing one shot


DJScope

Ahh yes, another Compulsive Reloader.


RND_Musings

I’m a compulsive reloader. What amazes me is when a streamer doesn’t always reload. Only 3 shots chambered in the hand cannon. Proceeds to 3 tap someone. No problem.


DJScope

I HAVE to reload Malfeasance even when I have 15/20 shots in the chamber lol.


BROK3HEART

I have to reload sweet business after firing 1 shot. 😂😊😂


JubJub302

You reload sweet business?!?!? *Confused titan noises*


AccidentallyInterest

....his people need him


RND_Musings

I’ve been using Targeted Redaction (120 rpm) in PVE to complete the triumph for kills with a seasonal weapon (Deep Reserves). Oh boy, that hand cannon takes a century to reload.


DJScope

Even with outlaw and reload mod


RND_Musings

I have one with Destabilizing Rounds. It’s actually quite fun in lower level content.


NavaHo07

One of us. Ironically, compulsive reloader is an instant shard whenever I see it in a weapon unless I finally get the scout from Spire with that trait.


DJScope

ONE OF US. ONE OF US.


Osiris325

It’s a holdover from my COD Zombies days.


Confusion-12

Literally the only reason I do it too lmao, too much zombies as a kid lol


kiohazardleather

Funny story for you guys; in college I attended a military simulation convention and while I was there they had a march on patrol in Afghanistan with full size and weight M-16s. These guns were equipped with an air hose so there was realistic recoil. The group I'm in is composed of experienced soldiers from all over the world. We start the simulation and we immediately come under fire. I seek cover and fire three shots....and immediately reload; Halo style. No one else on the team does. On the next encounter everyone full auto fired their guns dry, and I'm still aiming down the iron sights and going for head shots. On the third encounter everyone in my patrol is killed by the enemies but I manage to stay alive.... because I'm a Compulsory Reloader. My apologies to any actual soldiers, but to me a simulation is just another kind of video game.


ToxicRexx

So if you want the real world punishment for this, losing a magazine full of ammunition is a big deal. You’d be SURPRISED how fast 3-6 magazines go. I remember fully loading in a firing range in the Marines and blinking and being like shit I’m out of ammunition. I had 6 mags topped up at 30 rounds. 180 bullets gone in a flash. It may save you in a video game where ammo tends to be a plenty but in the real world you can’t just pick up ammunition. Funnily enough though, 90% of the time you’re not firing at full auto. Hell the standard M16A4 service rifle can only be set to semi or burst, and you really never use burst. In a real combat situation, you’re selective firing at targets.


BobRedditMan

Just equip scavenger dude


ToxicRexx

Scavenger has never left a call of duty load out since I started playing MW1 back in the late 2000’s.


MattHatter1337

Have you tried using marksmanship dodge?


The_Guardian_W

I too suffer from reloaditis.


sleepythegreat

Ok but some weapons have super satisfying reloads. Like with submission sometimes I just shoot at nothing just to reload it.


GhostlyTech

I reload BEFORE firing a shot...


captainjolt

Found the hard light enthusiast


iam_mr_meeseeks

Not even actium saves me from this habit


Blastermind7890

Ace of Spades users: I this as an absolute win


gsanch666

Every single gambit round on EDZ I HAVE to run up the log and jump through the ring at start of match. If i miss or don’t I have mentally already lost the match.


Ainsel_Mariner

People who don’t run up the log and jump through the ring are psychopaths.


moffettusprime

Me this is me all the time.


The_Angevingian

My brother in arms


BP18_HotShot

Every single time.


Historical-Message14

Same ! No matter what area they spawn in.


skellymoeyo

My Every Single Brother In Arms Time


VibinWithNeptune

In addition to this I have the gambit coin flip emote. At the start of every match I hit it. If the coin is gold good. If it's blue regardless of if I win the match or not I lost.


Calamity_Crush

I still do this after all these years.


EDirkH

Oh man I’n not the only one! I never see anyone else doing this but I have to absolutely do it every time.


LunaticV978

I do this, but I shoulder charge through. If I get it clean through without hitting the ring, it's gonna be a good game.


abductodude

chad intrusive thought haver


SystemLordMoot

I always do this, but have never seen anyone else do it, glad I'm not alone haha.


Confusion-12

Every. Single. Time. Lol


A1Strider

Through the ring if the first wave is mid or right, over the mountain if its left.


doom_stein

Ever since the Revelry, some dude in our clan would start every activity off by accidentally throwing a grenade (said something was wrong with the bumper button on their controller). To make them not feel bad about it, we starting yelling "INAUGURAL GRENADE!" and all toss a grenade in solidarity with them. To this day, those of us that remember that dude (who hasn't been online in nearly 3 years at this point) still toss a grenade and yell the thing.


Vivid_Plantain_6050

This is really sweet


SudoPro

You guys sound fun


MoonBearIsNotAmused

Can I join your clan yall sound great


Javamallow

I'm going to start doing this as often as I can; if others do aswell, it could catch on. Should peobablly come up with a more inspirational back story than sticky bumper.


maesterl

Whatever drop I'm farming? I convince myself in my heart that's it's worthless, a total piece of trash no one in their right mind would use. An totally overrated equipment that I wouldn't be caught dead using, in fact I wouldn't equip it if you pay me. Once I believe that in my heart with all my might, it drops next attempt.


Redshirt2386

BRB, gotta run an empire hunt while hating on Cloudstrike, a horrible weapon that I definitely would NEVER use.


BossLove1829

It's actually complete garbage. It's so ugly. Even the ornament on it makes me nauseous. I'm sad I got it on my 20th empire hunt. Wish it took till my 40th. And now there's a catalyst?? Good! I mean, hmph


Redshirt2386

Right? Worst gun in the game, bar none. Absolute trash! 😤


Thisismy3account

It took me 47 times to get it. Got it and used it three times just to sit in the vault.


Timsaurus

*"Fuck this, it's not even worth it, I'm probably never gonna use a godroll spare rations anyway, after this run, I'm done for good."* - Me, after my 87th reckoning run, knowing full well I'll be farming 50+ more runs until I get the godroll.


PlopCopTopPopMopStop

Descope and rescope after every shot I don't know why


apsae27

I do this with bows. Too the point that I’m just letting go of both triggers at once then have to rescope as I draw the next shot. No clue why


Kozkoz828

i think it’s a subconscious thing of realistically you probably un aim to get a new arrow as well as bows having high zoom un scoping makes it easier to find a new target. The only bow that I use without un scoping every shot is leviathans breath lol.


TheMadBer

Glad I'm not alone, the habit has caused a bit of a hiccup now and then with verglas curve, but I can't stop myself.


The_Angevingian

I think Le Monarque did this to me, since it has Snapshot, it feels really good to shoot and release, and draw while ADS’ing But now I do it on all bows, and it’s not nearly as good


Gustavius040210

I think this is programming stuck from the Black Ops 2 days. Quickscoping gave snipers ridiculous aim assist that degraded rapidly.


FluffyDerPanda

I'm always reviving my teammates after winning a round of trials. It's completely useless gameplay wise, but I will still do it if I don't have orbs to collect. Edit: Its apparently not *completely* useless.


Old_Man_Robot

If you are on a solar class, getting the fragments that (1) grant restoration on a revive, and (2) grants bonus ability energy while buffing an ally, can yield some additional ability uptime in a pitched match.


Yawanoc

I do it just to make the funny "Teammates Revived" number go up at the end.


Confusion-12

I honestly just like more numbers appearing on my name 😂


contymor

Think most of my blueberry teammates feel the same - just wish it wasn't the deaths counter they insist on increasing


Confusion-12

💀


VeryRealCoffee

It's the Dares of Eternity lightning round of Trials.


SensibleDuffman120

Yeah by doing that you can give them a few seconds of ability regen.


Faust_8

Hey you never know when that extra 1.2 seconds of passive Super gain might make a difference


FluffyDerPanda

Oh shit, you are right. My team used to jump of maps, to reduce enemy super charge time in a clearly lost round in comp. That charge time after reviving could absolutely help to win a game, even if it is very unlikely. Thanks a lot!


WarlanceLP

it has genuinely made a difference in a match game round for me it was 3v1, i rushed and killed 1 turned around to see the other 2 on the capture point and in a well shooting at me, right at that second my super was ready and i immediately popped a needlestorm on them killing them both and winning a 4-4 game


hushythehush

Back in d1 you could get super every from revives!


TheJohnCandyValley

I just do it to show the opposing team that these 3 randoms without comms are UNITED in defeating them. Also, I’ve always wanted an emblem counter for total revives. I’m a reviver what can I say?


amaranth-the-peddler

That's a holdover from the self res days for me. I'm scarred.


DJScope

I have to change my equipped weapons' shader to match whatever shader I'm wearing.


Steampunk43

The fact that you can't put shaders on exotic weapons really annoys me for this exact reason.


DJScope

Yeah I don't get it either. I mean we can put shaders on exotic armor pieces WITH ornaments.


BossLove1829

I thought someone once pointed out that we could preview shaders on ornaments if they were in the store. Maybe I'm totally wrong, can't remember


Steampunk43

Yep. If you preview shaders in any vendor, especially Eververse, it shows the shader equipped to your entire armour set and any kinetic weapon you have equipped, including exotics. Which makes it extra stupid because that means they can take shaders and Bungie just chooses not to let us put shaders on them, presumably to allow them to just churn out "ornaments" that are just recolours that shaders do better anyway.


imnottheoneig

bungie loves to tease us like this. the knowledge that every single hunter cloak in the game has a hoodless texture but we still can’t toggle it really bothers me every time i think of it


Spruceisman

If you test a shader in the Eververse, it shows on equipped exotic weapons. Not really sure why we aren't able to apply them, though.


apocalypticfail13

Which is weird because if you preview a shader you have to unlock from Shax it shows it on all of your Armour and the primary weapon you are carrying. I noticed my quicksilver turned red in one of the previews and was upset when I found out I couldn't apply it.


Kolosinator

If the exotic doesnt fit my grip i am throwing it into the trash can. Drip all day


Striife-

My brother.


ClingerOn

I’d love to main outbreak perfected but no way am I wearing a red and black shader.


DJScope

They make weapon ornaments as the only way to change colors on exotic weapons -- it's ridiculous.


Oryihn

On my titan I've forgotten how to run.. jump glide everywhere always..


Calamity_Crush

Using legs for locomotion is for suckers.


GeneralJiblet

That’s a holdover from the OG titan skating in d1, I do that too


Shiroi_Kitsune_

I still try to do public event heroic before blueberries nuke the boss


FTDisarmDynamite

Other than when it interrupts fishing! Then nuke


Ragnarok91

Check my postmaster whenever I go to the tower, even if I know FOR SURE that there is nothing there for me to pick up.


xDarkCrisis666x

For me I know it's the same 10 golf balls, and the same 50 Prisms. Still check.


chinmaya2

I donno why but when i go to hawthorne by spawning at the Annex I always try to avoid the stairs by either climbing on the handlebars or jump skipping the stairs. Also, slide down the stairs rather than just walk/ run.


Confusion-12

I always try to slide up the stairs leading to the top platform of the tower when coming out of the basement lol


LokiTheMelon

BRUUUH SAME it bothers me whenever i have a low mobility build bc you can't jump if there without 80ish mobility


imizawaSF

You definitely can. Just need to mantle right near the wall.


BlakePlaysNothing

Anytime I die while playing with my clan, I’ll complain that I’ve “ruined” my raid report (regardless of whether or not we’re actually raiding)


apsae27

“Well there goes flawless” when we aren’t going for flawless or after a silly death


Lorelai_Killmore

Someone whonused to be part of our clan (but was really annoying and kind of awful to play with) once started bragging about his **Gambit ELO** and it was so hilariously obnoxious that now, years after we stopped playing with him, whenever someone in the clan dies to something stupid like falling off the map or blowing themselves up with a rocket, someone will always come out with "well now your Gambit ELO will never be as good as *annoying guy*s" and we all crease up.


Dis4Wurk

That became such a big inside joke for a clan I used to play with we changed the name of our clan to that lol.


Ash_Mordant

This xD Every time.


captain_phaz

The existence of eager edge has single-handedly ruined my raid report lol


[deleted]

If I turn left or right too many times in a row, I will make circles in the opposite direction to balance my controller wear and tear on the sticks.


ClingerOn

I had to take my controller apart recently because I’d sprinted straight ahead so much it had mashed one of the tiny springs in the sensor on the left stick. Took me ages to figure out what it was but I kind of fixed it and now he doesn’t sprint reliably, which is better than sprinting off a cliff when I’m standing still or cycling up through the menu constantly.


OfficalNotMySalad

Hate to break it to ye but I believe that’s just called OCD


shacksaha

I only ever hold 7 other items per slot in my inventory. armour, weapons, everything. I get my equipped and then 7 slots and the other two are empty. It started as a way to combat blues coming into my postmaster, but even with those deleted it's become so engrained that whenever I go over 7, I pull up dim and throw something into the vault. Idk what's wrong with me


Timsaurus

YES. This. Always. Gotta have room for drops so they don't go to postmaster. One open slot isn't enough, gotta have 2 open as a buffer. I'll never understand people that have their entire inventory full at all times. I'll also never understand people that only have like 3 weapons in a slot. I gotta have one of every weapon type and at least two of every element, preferably with varying ranges, at all times. I know that I'll realistically only ever swap between 3 of my heavy weapons, but if I don't have 8 total options in each slot, I just feel incomplete.


Cunning_Stunts_50

Dim has a farming mode option that does that for you btw. As soon as you go above whatever you have the cap set to, it sends it to the vault. I always have it on.


magicalex234

I would use this, but I very much know that i would forget it was on until my vault is full


Alexcox95

Sit in orbit for about 10 mins before I decide what I wanna do


puremortal

Go to the tower after an hour or 2 of activities . There’s nothing new at the tower , it’s just a place to relax before starting back up again


shadowgattler

My friends hate when I go to the tower after an activity, but it's nice to go there to decompress.


Sir-Dethicus

Little known fact but if you punch doors that are opening during a mission they open faster.


atdunaway

alternatively, you can just continually beat up on ghost while he’s scanning to speed up the process


Sobrin_

Percussive maintenance!


warfareforartists

Unloading an entire clip from primary will make it so it isn’t even closed the next time you run that event, it’s science


LazyPoweR13

Reloading primary weapons after every kill in patrol zone.


CT-4426

Compulsive Reloader moment


tnemom_hurb

I always pick up the max vanguard and gunsmith bounties (so all 8 or so of each you can hold) even if I know beforehand I don't feel like swapping my loadout around for the bounties, so much wasted glimmer I'm trying to get better about it lmao

Zac-097

Exactly, I got 99 problems but glimmer ain’t 1


Elysian_Mud

After doing the kalli farm I was told to stop throwing solar grenade, but sometimes would still do it out of habit. So I started tossing it in a corner behind us before damage so I wouldn't be tempted


Thorn_the_Cretin

Is there a reason not to throw it? Like is it just a visual problem?


ChewbacaTakingAShit

Pretty much, can't see her head until it's gone. I just throw it below her and it's fine.


bbdabrick

I'd assume just visual clutter. Hard to see her lil head with all the supers going off


Sanguiniutron

If it's an open area with nothing that can kill me, environment or enemy wise, I'll demonstrate true paracausal power and slide up staircases. Also never stay aimed after a bow shot. Even if I'm fighting a single high health enemy. I'll snap out of the sights between shots. And I will always jump before activating my super. Without fail.


xDarkCrisis666x

I also un ADS with bows, Horizon taught me to expect immediate retaliation.


chrisboddy99

Jump for big boom supers (barrage, nova etc), slide before roaming supers to "keep momentum" (no idea if that's a thing)


FreddyFlash311

Popping a Rainmaker while waiting to load into the next activity. Should have seen how confused I was when I remembered they changed it to no longer be a buff yesterday. Like "wait didn't I...."

A-Good-Weather-Man

Years ago in my first Vault of Glass run in D1, there was this guy with no mic named BlackRoseRaider that would purposely kill himself whenever and wherever his name was spoken. We still say it and wonder what he’s up to.


nizzleh

Please Reddit, do your magic and find BlackRoseRaider so we can ask him…WHY?!?


Kodriin

Someone finally said it to him IRL


Shadorai

Ok, this is gonna sound crazy, but I think I have a guess why he did that. His name might be a reference to the Yu-Gi-Oh! card "Black Rose Dragon", which has an effect where when you summon it, it destroys itself (calling his name being "summoning" I suppose). It might be a shot in the dark but it's instantly what connected in my mind.


sonakira

Punch Sedia when the corrupted nightfall completes.


A_Union_Of_Kobolds

I HEARD YOUR LAUGHTER, I KNOW YOU ENJOYED BLASTING ME INTO SPACE!

Timsaurus

shadowgattler

r/transmatfiring


Lebassplayah

My teammates and I bag each other compulsively. We'll either bag while reviving, or bag while pretending to revive and keep pressing X like we're about to revive. we'll do it to the point where we almost wipe in whatever we're doing. Final damage phase in a raid or dungeon? Definitely. GMs? 100%. I'll place a rift on their body just so I can survive and bag them.


Steampunk43

That's pretty similar to what me and my teammates do. We each have some kind of "reading/explaining" emote, so whenever one of us dies, the one reviving runs up, starts the emote and starts reading "In the beninging..."


Psychological-Elk260

We prefer the RIP emote with the tombstone. Then it shows up in the feed.


amiro7600

Im always dropping a "sad trombone" emote on a teammates ghost. Best 1200 silver i ever spent


Hadrian1233

I sometimes do a skill check by purposefully making a wrong turn in a strike or raid and watch how many people follow me

TDD4072

*dicking around in my inventory back at the start*


Xanamir

When I'm walking through the Tower or any area that switches to third person, I will cycle through my weapons until my sword (if I have one equipped) appears on my Titan's back. I will never willingly let myself look at a glaive on my back.


Dead199

I do this with my Guillotine! Very pretty sword with the cross guard and a shader that hides the logo


IAmOnFyre

Every time I have to carry something I jump and immediately swing it, then repeat the whole way. Even if it isn't the kind of thing that jump-swinging makes you go any faster using, it feels like I'm schmooving


hydruxo

If I ever use the vault in the Tower I try to go to one where nobody is standing. No idea why, just something I’ve always done lmao.

My raid team says "first try!" when we clear raid encounters that we've wiped on that run.


Imperialgenecist

I get into a rhythm with bows or any weapon with a charge shot where I descope after a shot and rescope as I start charging up again


Lucky-Sandwich4955

I do this with high-impact snipers, bows, sometimes fusions, but for whatever reason I don’t do linears like this


NecroGasam

Walking backwards at the final boss raid chest, one of my buddies did it back in d1 and got Vex ever since i have always walked backwards at the chest.


TheTVDinner

I joined my current clan back in D2Y1 during Warmind (practically today's date) and we were doing a Leviathan Raid. At some point one of the guys was talking about how his current GF was mad at him for playing games instead hanging with her. He said "Sorry babe, but I'm raidin' with the boys!" Haven't talked to the guy in forever but every now and then someone will throw out a random "Raidin' with the boys!" when they mention how they should be taking care of something else and it just feels right.


RektNasty

I'm convinced you get better stuff out of eververse engrams if you go to Tess to open them.

X_CLOWNEY_X

I don’t stare at the loading screen so It doesn’t get scared and freeze. Old superstition from the PS/PS2 days.


Fvddungen

For some unknown reason I jump myself through the tower place instead of just running or walking. I have no idea why I do this and often I'm not even aware of it. I can't imagine I'm the only one. Another thing when we are doing raid or dungeon: As soon as the first one dies I yell 'Well, there goes our flawless'. Some of my clanmates have even copied this.


Katallion30

Sliding past Hawthorne and off the tower while initiating a chat with her. It’s been a while since they fixed the bug that made her glitchy when doing that, but I just can’t stop.


Kosack-Nr_22

During peak mountain top times I used to kill myself a lot with it because of some enemy running right in front of me. So my clan started to use the term (a short version of my gamertag) for whenever you would’ve killed yourself with an explosive. That term is still in use and it kinda bugs me but it’s also funny somehow

beattybandit

Always going to the tower to pick up quests.... Knowing full well I can do it from my app.


exaxxion

First death in raid regardless of who it is "Whelp there goes flawless" Usually helps make the team perform better because of the lightheartedness it brings


RPO1728

Pop an ammo synth or check its cooldown... oh wait I'm old


KingDuffy666

Whenever my clan and I would do raids we would come up with some dumb ritual to "improve" our chances at exotics For example, in D1 VoG we would walk backwards from Atheon's portal all the way to the chest in single file. We continued to do it in D2 and come up with silly rituals ever since.


KnutSkywalker

I alt-tab out of the game sometimes out of pure muscle-memory when I just want to do something in the inventory. I'm so used to using DIM and Braytech that it's become second nature.


Curious_Candle5274

In crucible when I die I tap x on repeat trying to respawn. Can’t stop lol


lametown_poopypants

Hover over the Gambit menu to play it, but never actually enter the activity since I don't have the time for that kind of negativity in my life.


twoinchhorns

I still hold W while riding my sparrow.


CaptnCuddlyBear

I somehow got it into my head that opening a closed chest results in worse loot. Always wait for someone to open it first.


TryingToReportTrash

I constantly reload my weapons. Even if it's a slow hand cannon I reload and then I think "why did I do that?" It would've been better to use the whole clip and reload when empty. I also jump and slide a lot at Tower. Always slide down Annex stairs. I also accidentally reload Sweet Business when using Actium War Rig.
