Come on Friday (Aussie time), looking at that beta installed and not being able to play it really is shit!!!

man i gotta say that Hunter gear looks super freaking sexy. not huge on those lil spikes or w.e coming out of the armor and i hope we may get a chance to like dye armor certain colors cause not a fan of that yellow either. But still looks super cool and i love that visor that make it looks like multi eyes and insect like. pretty sweet, and of course that hand canon <3

How did DeeJ post that on the 15th?

 

[Kaiken]

Deej! Believe me, I'll show you that no whispers leave my voice. See the true ally in me!!!

Spoiler

thought i'd try

 

[Admiral Woofington]

man still no info on clan system? Come on guys. I mean I'm not counting on them implementing the system during beta, but it'd be nice to know how it's going to work. I mean we have 1000+ people to help sort into clans.

Uranus jokes stopped being funny when I learned how to pronounce the planet's name.

Spoiler

No they didn't but everyone is saying it wrong

I love Neil deGrasse Tyson - he taught me how to pronounce Uranus properly.

So what's the deal with the iOS app?

Will it be out for the alpha as well? I didn't get to use it in the alpha, but did a bit on the web.

You mean beta, and yes, Bungie said it'll be released on the same day as the beta.

Beta you mean? In the IGN video, the Bungie dude did say the Companion App will be available by the time the beta goes live.

The iOS app will apparently only be available for iphone for beta but include ipad at launch.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

people keep saying iOs app but I read there's an android app as well. Am I mistaken?

Very cool! Getting closer now.

 

[jon bones]

Anybody else planning on going from the beta straight into Last Of Us: Remastered?

I'm ashamed to admit I haven't played it yet.

I am. I've played it once, it was fantastic. Looking forward to diving into the (supposedly excellent, tactical and methodical) MP mode between the Destiny Beta and retail copy. I'll probably replay the campaign sometime around Halloween.

Don't be ashamed. I bailed out of my PS3 before it came out, and I'm happy I did since now I'll get to play this version for my first time through.

Destiny Beta-Last of Us SP and MP all the way to Destiny launch. Awww yeah.

Maybe he is running on Bungie time - opposite of valve time which means we might get the beta sooner?

Nobody tell them what the date really is and maybe we'll get the beta day early.

I don't suppose you know of a timeline for clan/alliance information do you? It's a worry right now for the admins of the GAF group.

 

[AmethystEnd]

[Squall516]

I don't suppose you know of a timeline for clan/alliance information do you? It's a worry right now for the admins of the GAF group.

know one as far as i know, knows any information because none of it has been released yet. If i had to guess tho if not for the start of the beta but at least some time during it, they will give us more information about the clan system. Or they could just be holding onto it, so they have something to reveal and show in the weeks after the beta leading up to the games release. We really have no idea and just have to wait and find out. But i hope they release it soon because like someone else said organizing like 1000+ people in clans and subgroups and what not is not going to be easy at all so i hope we get a chance to maybe create that and do it officially for the game via the website or the app before the game is released. also on the bungie.net faq page they said that the beta is going to start 10am PDT so i hope that we will be able to pre-load the beta before that at the very least.

[Indrid Cold]

So has there been any confirmation yet of what is actually in the beta? Or file size? Preload?

 

[super-famicom]

File size is roughly 12GB.

IGN has a lot of info and videos.

[todd360]

Ooo, interesting.

All I got out of it was don't bother the people playing before the 17th. Yay for them.

Yay indeed.

 

[Seil]

I just want information on NA beta preloading, even if it's just that we won't have it so I can stop bothering to check.

Don't really want to go the EU account method just because of potential conflicts, even if it ends up being fine x.x

 

[Twilight Gap]

Yay indeed.

You know something we don't.

 

[MomoPufflet]

So I was wondering about gear progression in Destiny. Will good/sufficiently rare equipment have some staying power, or are they planning to do the modern MMO thing where everything is getting regularly outdated over time? And to what degree/speed will it get outdated?

There is no preloading for NA.

This. At least let us start downloading at midnight plz. It'll take me probably twice the time as the file size in hrs to get. Just in time for server maintenance >.>

[SnakeEyes]

You know something we don't.

FWC's already mentioned that he's in the pre-beta that gets access on the 16th (at least I think it was him?)

 

[super-famicom]

Maybe if we're lucky, tomorrow Bungie will announce that we can pre-load. But as of right now, they have said they that you can start downloading once you receive your code, which you receive on the 17th (PS3/4). Except for super cool people who can play early, it seems.

He knows things we don't. That's why we praise him.

Well good thing I'll be at work for 9hrs. Plenty of time to download.

 

[todd360]

So anyways we all got to start emptying our pockets on the table. Maybe we can put enough money together to "persuade" futurewarcult to give us beta details.

 

[super-famicom]

Yeah, I start my new job tomorrow. On the 17th, the beta will be ready for me once I get home.

Oh yea that. I thought FWC was already playing.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Congradulations on the new job. Luckily Im off on thursday, I hope to get in earlier in the day rather than later.

Yeah, but that doesn't really say anything in regards to digital orders that don't need codes. That's what I'm looking for. We know EU and AU can, but no information for NA. It's a bit nerve-racking =p Would rather them just say "It's not going to happen" rather than just leave it up in the air until it inevitably doesn't.
