Official Destiny Alpha Withdrawal Thread

Well now the stress is back, thanks! Hopefully that bounty thing is just a bug, I really don't want to have to rely on teammates not dying to complete stuff like that.

Consider though if you ended up in a game with a person who had the bounty and they more or less refused to participate in any meaningful way in the Strike because they didn't want to be in harm's way. You're stuck with their dead weight. But if you all need to survive, they don't have any incentive to hang back if their partners will just end up dead due to their lack of support. I'm not saying that's a good solution, but I could see it being used to balance potential abuse and encourage true team play.
 
Destiny is super amazing, but that's still no excuse for skipping the Steam sales! You need to build up your collection.

Oh it is, I am that strong. I never skipped Steam sales, but now I must postpone buying anything to slowly recover from the shock. Thank someentity(TM) for YNAB.

That is a good point. I had actually worried when I completed the strike without dying that I had played too conservatively and maybe didn't contribute as much. It didn't end up being the case as I was on top in all the categories it tracked that time somehow, but it could definitely be an issue in the future. I just hope they at least update the bounty to say it requires everyone on the team to meet the requirements.
 
I should do invoices, again, try to atleast, but I must watch more videos and listen to music and read stuff o_o

forgive me work padre

I'll be on PS3 once the beta starts!

I was a bit confused about the groups and, honestly, wasn't terribly interested in a whole lot of readin' to figure out what was going on. But you made a nice banner, which hilariously gives your post an incredible amount of gravitas, so I joined the original DestinyGAF. Feels like the more correct thing to do, accepting that there seems to be no stakes and no wrong answers to this non-dilemma.

Welcome to DestinyGAF on Bungie.net
The place for Awesome GAF Fireteams to hang out, chat and share strategies/techniques in annihilating the toughest enemies out there!
We will see you in BETA & Release

Hey guys I put the DestinyGAF PS4 only bungie.net group in the OP so no one gets confused

Thanks bud, appreciate it!
We need to get the word out there so people won't be confused anymore.
 
On one of my runs I died 0 times to my teammates' combined 37. Does that count? The bounty never triggered though, That was annoying. The spider tank was pretty easy to take down solo in the wild outside of the strike mission.

That White Destiny bundle looks great. The only things redeeming my launch purchase are Resogun and the Destiny Alpha.

I did the Strike without dying for more than 3 times and I still didn't get the bounty. Was going to complaint to the Alpha Bungie thread then found out why I didn't get it. Every single Strikes I did, didn't started at the beginning. God Damn.
 
Anyone can point me to their favourite or even their own Alpha videos? Just sitting and watching stuff. Exploration and stuff?
 
No, Tiemen, I'm asking for banners because I'm not making the OT, and I just like to see you make banners.

I'll let you know, thanks!
Just checking. ;-P

Anyways, I kind of went ahead with the main banner, but I don't quite know what looks best, or if you guys like it at all. Some feedback would be nice, GAF;

So that is what you are calling tank dancing :lol

*continues watching

My evil plan come the Beta is to get at least 4 people dancing on my Tank. More if they can fit!

Now this video is awesome!

Ty, as you can tell by my aim and gear I was a greenhorn at that time haha. I thought it fitting to dub Halo 3 track.

Great banners for the Beta thread Tiemen.
 
Hey Marvel (and everyone from EU), are you from EU? If not, no problem, I would like to make some connections before the beta so I have some peeps (and everyone from clan) to plan and play with.

Yiss I'm EU!

I'll send you a friend request when I turn my PS4 on later. You'll have plenty of gaffers to play and become friends with, our fireteam in the Alpha was a riot man.

UK player, looking to add people to play mostly co operative, will play some PvP, probably more as time goes by.

I'd like to join!~
PSN/Bungie Display Name is Quorra.
Hoping the beta adds to my hype. I really only got to play for a couple hours of the alpha and what I did play was all by my lonesome with no player interaction whatsoever. Hopefully the beta will be more fun though!

Edit: I like the second and the fourth banners best!

A NEW CHALLENGER APPROACHES ( added to the other post ).

So I had watched "Everything we know about Destiny" videos yesterday and my head exploded.

So you are telling me, that I will play for several hours a day, get to work and then AT WORK, I will be wasting (not really) time by reading those cards of story and lore snippets via the Destiny App on my smartphone?

I am skipping Steam sales because of new PS4 and this freaking huge game.
I see myself exploring everything, mainly walking on feet and breathing the atmosphere and being engrossed in it.

This maybe WoW all over again. Holy damn hype. ed: and 24/7/365 everyday content for ten years

I'd curb my expectations on that. I really feel people are taking that statement a bit out of context. I think they meant that they were aiming for Destiny players to experience something new everyday, not that they were literally adding content every day.
