Official Destiny Alpha Withdrawal Thread

Bo said:
Yes, shotgunning the first release to the second (whether they be expansions or considered something else, I'm not sure). Would make the most sense to me from a standpoint of fitting a PC port into a development schedule without punting it something like a decade.

e: Digging into the Bungie-Activision contract again to refresh my memory of the terms, the hypothetical would be something like this:

- Destiny I (PS3, PS4, X360, Xbone; September 2014)
- Comet I (PS3, PS4, X360, Xbone; September 2015~)
- Destiny I/Comet I (PC; September 2015~, probably packed together at full price)
- Destiny II (PS3, PS4, X360, Xbone, PC; tentative fall 2016?)

I hope and pray that they drop last gen consoles for Destiny 2

Edge Magazine Sept 2013:

When Destiny 2 arrives in 2016 (tentative date), it will most certainly skip 360 and PS3 altogether, giving the universe incredible opportunity for expansion even beyond its current sweeping goals -- although, [technical art director Ryan] Ellis says, "If people are still buying things [by that point] on 360 and PS3, we're going to treat those as just as high priority as we ever have. We'll make those decisions when we need to."

Whenever I see polls of who is buying Destiny on what, it is typically overwhelmingly on the PS4/X1 side of things. I really doubt we'll see Destiny 2 on 360/PS3, but I guess the possibility is always there if people are buying.

Any word on a season pass btw? If they plan on expanding it continuously for over a year, I can't imagine all of the significant stuff will be free

I doubt we'll hear about season passes before launch. There'd have to be a significantly detailed explanation of what content'd be included too, because I bet a season pass for something like Destiny would not be cheap!

I think it will be my first season pass ever if they are going to have one, we know they are going to add a ton of content so i feel it might actually be worth it for once and save myself a bit of cash in the long run.

That is awesome thank you. Love the mars one. What is cool as well is I can't spot the exclusion zone towers anywhere in that view
http://pan0.net/upano.php?id=7077&sessionid=67296dba081988e82fa9281c652e4e62#pano_self
, so it gives you a little bit of an indication of potential scale.

Do we have news on if there'll be a Collector's Edition of the game? It's about time that's announced if there is one, otherwise I'd be tempted to get the game digitally.

Last Bungie News update cryptically hinted that a CE will be announced on Bungie Day (July 7th.)
 
Hope the CE isn't too expensive... I'd also like it to not have a shitty statue. Just give me exclusive digital codes for armor and weapons and stuff.

I totally want a daft satue or something. If they can get anywhere near the amount and quality of stuff in the Reach legendary I'll be happy.

Statues are really tacky and just become a waste of space after a few years. A nice art book and soundtrack with some other digital goodies would suffice.
That said, it's probably going to have a statue anyway so I will put in my order for a simple statue of the Traveler; really hope it's not the three guardian classes standing on a bunch of moon rocks :P

I'd love a nice steel or metal case with some great artwork and lore, a digital soundtrack, and like you said some additional armor, weapons, clothing to customize my guardians.

Basically, the Mass Effect 3 N7 Collector's Edition.

Nah the Cat helmet and the Reach statue are great. Reach had so much more though with the hasley journal and key cards and shit. Really liked that edition.
 
So is completly safe to delete the alpha right?

I don't want to delete just so after is known that it would have give you a ID pic or some armor in game.
 
I'm getting the digital version since I plan on spending a lot of time playing this game and want to reduce clutter in my life. I don't need statues or posters, but an art book or soundtrack would be nice. And if there was a steel book edition, I might consider buying that.

Yeah, I would freak out if that happens, better keep it, have lots of space anyways.
 
Had a dream last night that the alpha was turned back on. I'm sure it's from reading this thread more than anything, but haven't had a dream about a video game since legend of Zelda when I was a kid. I hope there's some rewarding hidden loot.
 
There are some pretty big clans already; the biggest as of the time of this post is 10,354. There's going to be a lot of players in the beta for sure.

How did it feel to have your video featured in the Weekly Update? :P

I need to start streaming stuff, but I'm trapped between projects at work. xD
Not that I would really rather be doing anything than my job, but still.
 
Has there been any mention of what they are doing for Bungie Day this year?

I originally thought that the Beta would start on the 3rd or 4th and they would welcome in us old school Xbox guys on Bungie Day to make it a true community celebration, but with the Beta on the 17th that's right out.

I'm doing the same.
 
I thought it was smart for the Wolfenstein guys to make a CE without the game. I want the digital game, but if the CE came with a nice hardcover art book, I'd want that too.

Damn, that's true... I already deleted the alpha like a bug dummy : (
 
Pre-ordered and everything, it's going to be nice to see some online action on my new PS4.

Didn't play the alpha but ready for the beta - requesting to join DestinyGAF (Brother Sport / PSN: Pluskwamp)!
