i take that back..it wasnt 4Chan,it was the "Lizard Squad"
Hackers Claim Credit For Downed Destiny, Call Of Duty Servers
Hacker group Lizard Squad claims it's behind attacks that laid low servers for both Destiny and Call of Duty: Ghosts today, leaving players unable to connect and play.
Having taken credit for a massive DDOS attack that took down the PlayStation Network last month as well as a bomb threat that caused Sony Online Entertainment president John Smedley's plane to be diverted last month, Lizard Squad now sets its sights on two of Activision's most popular online games.
Players of both games have taken to Twitter (as well as our tips email) to complain about the server outages for the two games, perfectly timed to tick off the weekend gaming crowd. Both Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Destiny seem to have been affected. It's unclear which platforms encountered Call of Duty: Ghost problems, only that server problems were rampant.

Go to the Russian countryside in Destiny. Head left past the plane graveyard, through the building where you first encountered the moon-wizard, and out the back. Hear that gunfire? A handful of high-level players are probably standing there, shooting at a cave.
They're shooting at the cave because if you do that for even a little while, the cave winds up looking like this:
Yes, this is the latest technique for farming in Destiny, and it's by far the most effective I've found. Spend an hour or at the Murder Cave and you'll get so many engrams that you'll almost surely get SOMEthing you want. You don't even have to shoot a single enemy—loot spawns if you're in the vicinity, so your neighbors' kills still give you loot.
If you're lower level, you'll generate XP very quickly, even if your loot drops aren't that exciting. Valleywag's Sam Biddle hung around the cave with me and Jason last night and went from level 16 to level 18 mostly by sitting around, cracking jokes, and occasionally shooting things.
The technique, as shared in this video by Force Strategy Gaming (thanks BlitzKaiser!), has become so widespread that I've yet to go to this area of the Cosmodrome and not find at least one or two 24s or 27s sitting out there shooting.
The rules are simple, and agreed upon: Everyone stands behind the rock slab, everyone is sure to kill all of the hive thralls and acolytes before they get too far (if they escape, the constant spawning stops), and everyone takes periodic breaks to run into the cave and gather loot/ammo. It's kind of beautiful, really.
If you're down in Russia this weekend, it's worth swinging by just to see everyone working together so effectively. Might as well stick around to get some loot, too.
Who has the best XBOX 360 trade-in deal?
My 360 is only about 3 1/2 years old, I might trade mine in for the One next month.

Bungie going to catch on to this sooner or later..
Lol, I went from level 9 to 20 doing that in 2 days.. And I'm only on the 2nd mission on Venus
I thought I'd never say this but it's admittely fun "looting" for rare-legendary weapons..
