I only ever played as a Hunter in the Alpha, so I think I'll test the other two this time around. But which first....

 

[Fehyd]

Noone cares about tanks in pvp, you guys are big dumb weak and slow

If it means holding a capture point because of a drop shield, suuuuuure.

Give Titan some love.

Especially in Crucible. You'll LOVE hulk smashing control points.

 

[SnakeEyes]

You are, both of you, scumbags. You know that, right?

Even Huntresses can't deny dat space magic swagger.

Hey bruva, do me a favor and go here, and select all the upgrades. Watch the bars.

everyone who is playing the beta now is winking. i asked a few friends playing it and they responded only with the same emoticon -_-

I'm just going in with the thought it's just an expanded Alpha (which I am perfectly fine with)...If there is more to explore then that is just a bonus and if not that's ok too

That calc is broken. You can't select multiple stat upgrades from the same column in-game.

In-game, with very few exceptions like jump modifiers, you can't select more than one trait/ability/whatever from each column at a time.

 

[darthbob]

All I want out of the Beta is an increased level cap (10-14 sounds realistic), and more Story.

That's it. :-|

Make it 15, so we can unlock the second subclass

I don't think the stat increases have an effect in PvP though, I think they're normalised like the weapons are.

I've seen bigger space magic.

Ha, I know, it was an attempt at some next level embellishment shit. Still, it's cool that Titan has skills that affect those things.

I didn't know this though

I really need to become friends with someone in the industry or something.

So there's still a whitelist or something?

Ohoho Dax, are we gonna do it like this?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I don't think it's just Old Russia

Shinobi pls

How big are we talkin?

 

[veloxStrix]

They know it's Old Russia.

I just call it as I see it.

 

[everyday math]

Man, I wish I was PychoRaven playing Destiny yesterday....

 

[AmethystEnd]

I just call it as a see it.

Huntresses and their typos. But that's fine. We'll just wait until launch to see how big my space magic actually is.

 

[darthbob]

Didn't know the second subclass unlocked at 15. Well, if I were Bungie I'd want to keep a few things close to my chest so 14 would be the cap if I was in charge of determining that. :lol

 

[blamite]

The fact that the B.net maintenance still isn't finished is making me really (probably unnecessarily) excited for what's gonna be there when it's done.

It's what I do with it that matters!

12.

Wish they'd flip that switch back to b.old. Save some money and make everybody happy!

Agreed.

 

[terrdactycalsrock]

The bungie servers have been down since I preordered! I know I still have a day left, but this is a good test of my patience lol

 

[enzo_gt]

brahs I haven't been keeping up with this class rivalry, but my gameplay preference seems to be Warlock but.. but.. the Titan and Hunter (my 2nd gameplay choice) class items (the sash and cape) look so much cooler and much more noticeable

September is going to be difficult

Agreed that the armbands aren't the best looking. Some of the exotic (purple rarity) ones are cool, with holograms and stuff projecting from your arm, but they're still not as noticeable, really.

 

[Overdoziz]

Please please fucking PLEASE put some volume sliders in the options Bungie. I know y'all dont like that but we deserve options!!!?

Who gives a shit, that's what your armour is for

Actually though, now that I think about it, I'd like for the bands to do large projections (like full arm length holograms etc.)

 

[AmethystEnd]

True.

Spoiler

NO FUCK THAT BRO, I WANT A CLASS SPECIFIC ARMOR THAT COATS MY ENTIRE LEFT ARM IN SPACE MAGIC GLOW(TM)

Edit:...wow, your edit and my post match up way too goddamn well. Stop creeping on me.

 

[CmdrShepard]

Ah another 20 page catch up for me - good morning everyone.

Sounds like beta starts you off at level one going off the article someone posted. Also sounds like a new strike will be in. Just because they said they wanted to withhold some surprises when the strikes question came up. Unless the surprise is a/the raid. Which is extremely unlikely. I would think raids would need to be beta tested the most out of anything though. I'm still gonna give that a 1% chance of happening haha.

No. Sorry nope. No raid.

Spoiler

I am not in beta and not working for bungie but i would bet real money - in fact my life savings that the raid will not be in the beta. It WILL NOT HAPPEN

I reaaaally doubt progress will carry over from beta. That just seems silly.

I saw this as well i think on the eurogamer article... Colour me disappointed if true. I want the progress to be wiped, especially if the first levels are buggy in any way and will be fixed for launch. Plus it just gives too much advantage to those who play the beta.

Inside the traveler?

Inside the Citadel...


Also - I believe we will only get Old Russia INITIALLY. Still expecting one more planet come after the maintenance

Psychic powers, breh...

 

[LAA]

Not exactly about the beta...but is anyone going to use all 3 classes in the game?

From the alpha I think I liked the hunter more in terms of style and his special skill, but I like the look of the other 2 classes a lot more, so still a little torn...

Probably gonna make a save for each on day 1 to get the exclusive dlc for each class anyway just in case.

 

[iamjohn]

I can't sign in to Bungie.net. Are they about to drop the codes?

 

[GringoSuave89]

Since the beta is only 3 days for Xbox

Spoiler

-_-

I'm going to try to play each class each day. Though I'll probably gravitate to one if it becomes my favorite.

 

[everyday math]

Sites been down all day.

Spirit Bombing them is more fun.

Sites been down for ages - they're upgrading Bungie.net with all the new Destiny specific stuff at the moment, and hopefully the upgrade to the iOS app will go live soon as well.

[SnakeEyez]

Man I have been obsessed with this thread checking it like every 30 minutes for new media/info. Come September, this game will own me... I'm OK with this.

 

[H1PSTER]

Can anyone confirm that since I preordered this on PSN, I won't have to do anything else to get into the beta?

 

[SnakeEyes]

A friend Public Service Announcement for people who want to play with randoms freely.

 

[Jarnet87]

Pre-ordered the digital PS4 version off of Gamestop earlier, code hasn't been emailed yet. I'll have to call them If I don't get it by Thursday morning.

 

[CmdrShepard]

A friend Public Service Announcement for people who want to play with randoms while in Explore.

This is good news (i remember this being on the wheel in alpha but not implemented yet). I know that if randoms find my warlock in public events that they will be naturally gravitating to my abundance of space magic. This will make it easier for them to receive some of my leftover space magic after i finish wiping the floor with some Vex.

I think you are in the beta since you pre ordered the digital version.
