Proof that Warlock fashion is lightyears ahead of everyone else.

Step your game up, peasants.

I'm torn.. the fashion is telling me Warlock, the gameplay is telling me Titan.

...and the gold shimmer specials are telling me Hunter.

I don't know if my hypetrain can keep on the rails until the 18th....
 
Class Dinklage is gaining steam

haha oh man that would be awesome, i would so play a Dinklage class in the game lolz :P it would be like a robot of some kind that that Ghost attaches too and controls, man that would be pretty badass lol.

I am not sure when we can start downloading the beta. Sincethey start rolling out PS3/4 beta codes on the 17th, I imagine that's when we can start to download the beta for those platforms. The codes the Bungie Twitter talked about are the codes to just choose your platform and region for the beta, not the actual beta itself. For some reason, people redeeming for NA had no problems, but EU had thiis bug where they couldn't redeem and choose platform/region. And the Alpha file size was ~7GB, so I imagine the Beta will be similar in size, give or take a GB or 2.

And from what i read the beta is going to start at like 10am PDT so maybe the codes will be available at midnight on the 17th? this way you can dl it before you go to sleep and have a few hours for it to dl before the beta starts? I could be wrong but im pretty sure thats what i read that its going to start, hope that helps.

Also all this back and forth and people butting head about which class is better just making it even harder for me to choose between Hunter and Warlock...they both look soo damn badass. But i gotta admit the arc blade thing looks pretty freaking sweet lol ^_^
 
Is there a begging thread for beta codes, like there was one for the alpha? Because I'd totally get on my knees to get one for PS4.

Very good OP. I'm going to send this to everyone who has questions about the beta. We're getting close folks! See ya on July 17th at the traveler!
 
Umm, what is going on? I went to my bungie page and now it says I don't have any codes redeemed. I checked it about 2 hours ago and it showed all the 17 codes + the beta code, but now my page is empty..

Just checked my profile and the codes are here. So... are you sure you're on your profile ?
 
Just went to my profile and realized I redeemed a bunch of codes already.

Completely forgot about it.

Do we know what they are for yet?

I am in Europe but use a US PSN account. Which region should I chose for the beta? Sorry if it's been asked, going through this thread on a phone would be hard.

US one i guess. Otherwise you won't be able to redeem the beta code on PSN.

I think.

Wait for someone to confirm before you burn your code.
 
Was thinking of changing my pre order to the limited edition just a minute ago and noticed Amazon put the price up from £88 to £95

I did notice though shopto have it available for pre order too at £92, but is there a cheaper retailer, will more retailers be selling it like Asda or Tesco?
 
Probably answered before, but let's say I redeem my beta key for Xbox 360, and play the beta on this console, and in September or whatever, I decide to get a PS4 or Xbox One (probably Xbox One for Halo), would anything I've unlocked in the beta on 360 be tied to my Bnet account? Ie. emblems, special gear?
 
Holy shit, people!! LESS THAN A WEEK!!!

*ahem*....Anyway, onto my question - Does anyone know if any type of theater mode been confirmed (or denied) yet?

Nothing from the beta carries over to release apart from a player icon you get for playing on the 26th. That icon is tied to your Bungie.net account so will work for anything associated with that account.

not 100% sure about this... unless the game is cross gen or cross platform (its not cross platform) if its cross gen, you may be able to log into your character similar to MMO's like FFXIV... but i REALLY doubt you can carry over a character from xbox to playstation... im interested in this actually.
 
Hey, guys, so I'm a little late on Destiny news. Preordered my Destiny/PS4 combo along with the Ghost edition.

Have we heard how Dinklage sounds now? His voice sounded kinda processed in the trailer for all of the editions of the game, but I could be wrong.
 
I still can't get my head around the way bungie do "groups". Is it just a place to discuss the game on the site via the forums or is there something more I'm missing? Will anything appear in game to indicate i'm part of this clan/group?

(Bungie ID is the same my forum name. I've already been accepted I believe :)

Really? This is great! I was so worried about playing the beta on PS3, as I'm getting the Destiny/PS4 combo. I just want my beta emblem to carry over. Thanks!

It is, they're using a digital filter now. His lines were never going to be rerecorded, only "updated."
 
I'm sat here in the office and started thinking how I'm going to approach the beta. What will my plan of action be?

I'll probably go:
  • Story (if it starts as the alpha did)
  • explore mode to level up and collect glimmer
  • tower to spend my glimmer and dance
  • strike a few times to earn some sweet loot
  • crucible to kick some ass (or get my ass kicked)
  • ...then I'll just hop around on whatever mode takes my fancy or whatever my fire team want to tackle.

So in which order is everyone planning on tackling the upcoming beta?
 
It's the parent group from which all GAF-based Destiny Clans will spawn, e.g. PS4DestinyGAF, XboneDestinyGAF etc. because Clans are capped at 150 members, but then you have Alliances and such.

Ninja'ed - Basically just going to copy-paste this response from now on - good work again snakeeyes :P
