Support NeoGAF

[sono]

The beta is a separate download. I see no reason to keep the Alpha.

I fire it up for the title screen music from time to time.

If the beta has the same then I will delete it otherwise I probably will keep it!

 

[diablos991]

Sure but I just think its misleading to suggest that "major" things can change just because you had this beta.
Its a polished demo for the people who pre-order lets not kid our selfs.

Server stress test.

 

[hypotc]

Show us the map! Such a tease cutting to the couch cam haha.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Load times seem to be the same, hope they are able to bring them down for the final game.

 

[Bsigg12]

Loading times still seem crazy long which is a bummer

 

[Nibel]

A friend sent me this

 

[Nestled_Grizzly]

Haha. Wow. They aren't showing the map. Lol

 

[Vire]

The load time to the tower still looks like its ass. :/

 

[FullMetaltech]

Anyone knows what time are the servers going to be available?

NEEEED.

10AM psT

 

[LookAtMeGo]

A friend sent me this

Saweet!

 

[Llyrwenne]

Lol at them not showing the map. You bastards! I need to know!

Level cap definitely still seems to be 8. ;-(

 

[slash3584]

It may have been answered before but, if I got a beta code already when can I download the beta client?

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

When can we download the beta in the US?

 

[hypotc]

A friend sent me this

YES!

 

[n0tail]

When can we download the beta in the US?

This is something I'd like to know as well. Very poor information regarding this.

 

[bigDave]

A friend sent me this

is that Earth?

 

[Bsigg12]

It may have been answered before but, if I got a beta code already when can I download the beta client?

Probably now. If it's not the one that goes to Bungie.net and is a PSN/XBL code, you should be able to redeem it and play.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Seems like 8 is the level cap again.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

is that Earth?

moon.

 

[stupei]

Is it just me, or is the Titan Smash really op? The range on it is crazy and the multiplayer maps (at least in the alpha) feel narrow enough you definitely can't escape it vertically in most spaces.

Is there a better way to avoid it or do you just have to take the guy out before he can set it off?

 

[hypotc]

Gold weapons? Thought purple was the most rare ones. Sweet!

 

[Live Free or Die]

This is something I'd like to know as well. Very poor information regarding this.

Bungie has already said where/when you can download the beta: http://thedestinyblog.com/2014/07/1...-the-psn-store-you-will-get-a-code-via-email/

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

This is something I'd like to know as well. Very poor information regarding this.

I know it stars tomorrow but aren't we supposed to get the code already?

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Server stress test.

Well their is that I give you that one

 

[Bsigg12]

I know it stars tomorrow but aren't we supposed to get the code already?

Not until tomorrow

 

[jon bones]

[bigDave]

woops, dodn't read mission location

 

[LookAtMeGo]

That Sargon-C looks sexy.

 

[Tekku]

Holy crap the LMG's are sexy. I'm kinda sad that they're not primary weapons. I wanna use them all the time.

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

I preordered at Gamestop and entered the beta code at Bungies website,do I have to log in tomorrow and get the code to download the beta?

 

[Nibel]

[JetBlackPanda]

[bigDave]

[Karl Hawk]

Lol, so much for the assumption that we'll only get Old Russia in the beta.

 

[Live Free or Die]

They said something about that. If you pre-ordered from a store like Gamestop etc... Let me check.

EDIT: Found some info:

If you've selected your console for the Destiny Beta, you'll receive email with your download tokens when the games begin on that platform.

Download keys for the Destiny Beta will be emailed or found on your http://Bungie.net profile page on the start date for your console.

If you have pre-ordered Destiny and are still waiting for your Beta code, please contact your retailer - either digital or brick'n'mortar.

Found that on their Twitter page.

Time for blackout. See yas in the beta tomorrow CST GAF!

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Shinobi redeemed!!

 

[WITHE1982]

three level 8s in crucible. So at least level 8 cap.

 

[ArkkAngel007]

I was a bit underwhelmed with it in the Alpha, but I was playing by my lonesome in Old Russia and didn't get to check out the Crucible.

Still debating on what class to run with primarily. Only played Titan for the short time I spent on the Alpha, and would like to dig deeper into that class with a fire team beside me. On the other hand, the Warlock sounds pretty cool.

This was known for weeks.

 

[Vire]

Moon was an option on the navigator menu!

 

[bigDave]

[Llyrwenne]

[GrizzNKev]

[LookAtMeGo]

[Jblanks]

[darthbob]

It's entirely possible that Bungie may raise the level cap during the Beta.
