How do people keep falling for this. Like you really think your Internet provider just upgraded you to google fiber speeds free of charge at a convenient time?

You only downloaded the application to download the beta.
im only surprised it went from 8 hours to 8 seconds. my pc doesnt even pull that trick anymore

Wait, WTF happened? It "downloaded" in like 10 seconds and now when I click on the icon it says can't verify license.

The first download is just a client and is only 179 MB, rest is downloaded when you start it up. Maybe it needs to verify the license before you can start it, but PSN servers are getting hammered.
 

Double tap out to the XMB, DO NOT PRESS CIRCLE.

Then, KEEP DOUBLE TAPPING BACK TO THE STORE. It will eventually work.
Wow, you are a godsend! This actually worked for me. I had to do this a number of times before it would finally catch, at several points along the way, but it worked!

Oh great, now I get an error when trying to download the game from within Destiny. Unable to connect to PSN! Wtf?! Has anyone figured out how to deal with this one?
 
Redeemed my code, gave me a server error. Now it says my code has been used. Can't see my download anywhere and can't get back into the PSN store to find my download list.
 
For people getting kicked from PSN Store: When you get the error message, DOUBLE TAP THE PS BUTTON to go to XMB.

Then, DOUBLE TAP AGAIN to go back to the Store. You may get the error again, but KEEP DOUBLE TAPPING IN AND OUT.

Pressing circle closes the store, while double tapping keeps it open in the background (I think)


You will eventually make progress without having to start the launch of the PSN store all over again (by double tapping PS button instead of circle)

Keep this in mind for future betas.
Haha I finally got to the goddamn Destiny Beta page and when I click download nothing happens. You can hear the sound effect of me clicking it but nothing happens.

Had anyone ever tweeted Shu and asked him why in the fuck marketing hypes up a game to biblical proportions but no one tells networking to lease some goddamn servers?
 
ummm, you mean they could have done it the normal way and I could start the entire download remotely from here at work. Instead, I can only download the mini-file remotely.

that is much worse.
But you see, that's putting all the eggs in the PSN basket
So if PSN went down down, you'd lose all that progress

perhaps pre-loading a few days in advance would alleviate these issues in the future? Whats the point if no one can actually get into the store and download it? The very same thing happened to PSN during the hardline beta afterall.
 
when I click on destiny beta to download it I just get this, anyone else have this too?

Why are you going there, as opposed to the "Redeem Code" option? If you preordered, didn't you download it already, like a week ago?

Just keep trying to load your download list, it should be there if the first time you entered your code went thru.
