If you are receiving errors downloading the Destiny Beta, don't launch the app. Track the download from the Games & Apps menu.

Sorry if this is redundant. I couldn't find mention of the tip. Mind you, I am reading very fast.

any of the PS4 users notice that if you kill a decent number of enemies in an area for a while, the area gets flooded with tougher enemies in response now?

i was doing the rocketyard farming stuff and in that back corner leading to the kings area, fallen just started spawning relentlessly i handled it thinking that i'd simply triggered a faulty spawn or something but when i circled back to the entrance of the area i noticed that it was loaded with lvl 9s, majors, and they were spawning fast enough to replenish their numbers really quickly

i wasn't alone, luckily, but shit got really real

I will def. have to try this
 
It feels so smooth on X1. Played PS4 up to yesterday and this feels smoother.

I hope making it 1080p does not ruin this.

Also.. playing with X1 controller.. just feels right. The rumble effects are so much more nuanced in the controller and trigger too.

Makes sense, PS4 version is 30fps while XBO version is 30fps.
 
I dont know if this is in my head or not but....has anyone else had problems firing in PvP before? Like you are sprinting and try to stop and fire and it doesn't feel responsive? There have been times when I can only squeeze one shot out of my auto rifle...or thats how it feels at least. Probably in my head but doesnt hurt to ask.

Don't know if you are joking because of the bolded part but serious question here. Are the ACTUAL rumble triggers used? I think DR3 is the only game I have noticed them in. Couldn't believe they were not in Titanfall.
 
What's the fastest way to get a sniper rifle if you don't start out as a hunter? I think Titan and warlock both give you a shotgun in the tutorial and I hate the shotguns in this game.

No shit.

However, its pretty well known there are frame drops and judder on the PS4 version. I have not noticed them so far on X1.

That doesn't make sense because it doesn't utilize the rumble triggers.

Well the triggers are rumbling. I dunno. I think I'm just gob smacked cause it plays so much better for me with this controller. Thats a matter of preference of course.
 
Im sure im very late but since I just got home and fired it up, HOLY CRAP we can go to the Moon! Thank you Based Bungie.

Edit: Never mind. I saw that you can click on the Moon and got super excited....The mission is locked T_T

There wasn't any kind of frame drops it was a frame pacing issue which caused some frames to hang and others to be sped up causing a judder.

It seems to be resolved at this point but without a confirmation it could just be a placebo effect.
 
Hold up. Just hold up. Stop what you're doing and answer me. Please.

Did sniper rifles get buffed? Cause I got steamrolled by a few folks who were one-shotting with them. Either they were godly at headshots, or I'm missing something critical.

Wow they really upped the auto-aim. Frame pacing issue seems gone now in the PS4 version.

Is that so? Huh.... That could explain what I just went through.

I was about to say this. I dunno what beta that guy is playing but it damn sure isn't the one I'm playing. Though I gotta say I hope the impulse triggers make the full release.

God DAMMIT Afrocious. I was eating dinner until you insisted on a reply. See my avatar for your answer.

That what I meant, and I have not noticed it so far, where I did on the PS4 version. I have not played PS4 today since the beta came back up, so if they fixed that then awesome.

LOL...

Isn't the XBO Destiny Beta 900p?

So confirmed 900p/30 > 1080p/30....damn.


See above.. jesus.
