I'm in EU. Pre ordered through psn. Nothing downloaded yet. Not sure why. Hasn't appeared in application management but destiny beta is there in library with big x on the play button.

Yep. Same situation here. I hope it "unlocks" sooner or later.
 
So about 10/12 hours to go still? I was quietly hoping they'd put the servers online while I was sleeping. Yet I still can't launch the Beta. ;_;
 
I just don't see why they didnt release the client on PSN a week ago and let people download it at will, and only people with codes would have access. Now its going to be a sprint to the finish line and most likely PSN will have issues. Fack.

yeah i mean if people with EU accounts could download it why not on all accounts?
 
Any news about issues to sign-in the Companion App (Android)?

What issue in particular? If you are referring to the it saying on the App that you do not have an account, know that Bungie has commented upon this and said they have logged it. It will be fixed soon and just ignore it until then. The message will also disappear once you have a profile in the Destiny Beta.

If you're referring to another problem, you should post in #help on Bungie.net itself. Though keep in mind these updates are going to be a continuous process over the next few weeks. Even their webmaster said that one particular issue I care about deeply won't be fixed until late next week at the earlier. So be patient with them.

Definitely going to agree with you on this. Bottleneck central tomorrow? We'll see.
 
I forgot to check my download list before turning off my PS4. Eh, I'll get up in a few minutes to check and see if Beta shows (probably not). I've been having a rough week and I'm glad this is coming soon, need something to pep me up fo'real.

On another note, while I was playing 2K14 I got included in the DestinyGAF chat. That was fun seeing/hearing a message pop up every few moments while trying to not get my ass handed to me in online matches lol. See you all in a few hours.
 
Quick question and sorry if it's been asked but, if I do that pre orer trick on the PSN Store to download the beta client and then cancel, will I have to redownload it when I redeem my codes?
 
I did the EU download trick.

Now do you cancel the pre order right away or wait after the beta?

I wouldn't

Same. Im tempted to try and preload but I dont want to run into any issues with playing it on my NA account or have trouble linking it with the companion app or anything.

Same here.

Sounds a little dodgy and I can't afford them to actually take any money right now. Happy to wait for my code to come through online.
 
How can they charge you if there's no funds or billing information on the account?

Then they ban the account until you clean your debt?

It should be the case though, really.

Why? If you redeem your beta code today you have legit access to it. (and you'll probably have to for it to work anyway)

You were just lucky to have it preloaded on your console. And you have the right to change your mind on a preorder.
 
Hopefully that's not the case, but that's what you get for trying to cheating the system.

Cheating the system? Hahaha, no.

You hit pre-order on the PSN store and it starts downloading the beta immediately. That's it.

Why wouldn't you be able to cancel that preorder later? You can cancel pre-orders everywhere.
The benefit of the PSN pre-order is that it gives you access to the beta immediately without codes or emails. It's not a workaround, it's just easier.

You would've needed that to place the original preorder

Nope.
 
Oh boy, Sept is gonna be a minefield of 'Sony charged me for x' threads

Sony aren't going to charge you for using a beta, especially since all those of us who've pre ordered and then cancelled just so we can download quicker, will be using a bungie supplied code anyway...

Nope.

Besides, the pre-order in the PSN Store is way overpriced at 70 euros, I should be allowed to cancel it and pick up a copy elsewhere if I'm so inclined.

Pretty sure a pre-order by no means legally binds you to actually making the final purchase. It's a reservation of sorts, which in this particular case happens to give you instant access to the beta.
 
Don't expect them for at least 9 and a half hours. Bungie said they'd start going out 10AM PST.
Like you said, START going out, it will probably go out in waves like the alpha so as to not crash the servers. Some people might be waiting a few extra hours on top of that.
