My Bungie Day Destiny wish list:
A kick ass collectors edition: Steelbook with a huge warlock/hunter/titan statue.
BETA details: official length (snigger), location and game modes available.
Crucible game modes revealed: So far we only know 2 of 6; Control and skirmish.
Level cap reveal: They finally tell us the final level cap and give us some sweet details
Wizard T-Shirt: I get home and my alpha 2014 t-shirt is waiting for me as a nice Bungie day surprise.

Well PlayStation gets a 4 day head start on the beta so simple math says the 21st for Xbox.
I would expect some confirmation although we do know the PS4 BETA is July 17th and is 4 days earlier than Xbox One so we can educated guess that it's the 21st July.
edit: Beaten like a damn fiddle.

27 minutes if the assumption of 12pm EDT is correct, and news first breaks on Bungie's website.

Hm. Guess this means I'll put up the Bungie Day thread when IGN's stuff goes live?
Edit: Yeah I'll do that.
But this is Bungie day, not IGN day. Ergh they ruin everything!
Really looking forward to the news though, praying it's on Bungie.net though!
15 mins guys!
I think that'll be the unofficial start of it all yes.
Sadly I'll be travelling home so will miss the reveal but will 100% check out the thread when I get home Dax.
It's pretty insane the difference in anticipation and reception when comparing before and after the Alpha. Imagine Bungie before the Alpha, knowing they have this amazing game and it was being misinterpreted so much by pretty much everyone, bet they loved the Alpha coming out more than us.

I am working now as well. Hope to see some good news today for beta.
Yup, the general consensus was 'oh hey this is their Borderlands' when in reality it is something entirely else. Sure you can finde elements in it that can be found in the other game as well, but Destiny tries something else.
I would also blame either Bungie or Activision for promoting the game the way they did since it didn't really help. Giving the community a early alpha with all important features in it was a stroke of genius though and I'm glad they were brave and confident enough to do so.

Found a cool app called TurnMe Panorama (Play Store). You can import Panoramas and get a 3D view out of them. Pretty much turned this:
Into this:
Some resolution lost but you get a better layout of each of those panoramas.
Cool, will be checking this out. So is this only for a specific phone OS?
Android. They may have something similar for iOS.

Ghost edition is mine.

Really hoping this could get answered, since it's by far the most important aspect for me:
If I play with my 4 or 5 buddies from the States, with myself being European, will I be at a disadvantage like at CoD or will I barely be affected?

You'll have to wait for some of our EU Alpha players to know how it affected them but it's worth noting that for the Beta it appears they're seperating people by Region. For the Beta specifically, people can choose their Region but it's unknown how that's going to work come Launch.
