They just serve as loading screens for matchmaking and cutscenes when you get into other destinations.

Besides, the OG ship looks crappy. Why would you want to live with that when you have enough glimmer to buy a new ship that looks better?

I can't wait to upgrade to a different ship. Already sick of this old tin can.
 
Keep getting "contacting destiny servers."

I think my network is fine. How should I fix this problem?

Do a barrel roll!
No - if you are on xone, turn off the console, unplug stuff, plug back again, run console and try game. Bungie tweeted something in this matter so you could check their twitter too.

ed: That was for the stabilization issue - If encountering Party Stabilization errors on Xbox One: try turning off your console, fully unplugging, then plugging in and trying again.

To all of my Titan bros! RUN SLIDE MELEE!
 
quick question, how do you join the crucible? I played the first two missions this morning and I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get into this game. (Bungie never disappoints...)

Anyway, I wanted to join a PVP match but I couldn't find the Crucible on the orbit map. Is it something that I have to go to the city for?
 
Seems framerate on 30fps is a rock solid 30fps now. No more stuttering, though I could be wrong.

I didn't notice any stuttering on ps3 before, really impressed how welll it runs on the ancient tech.

Keep going with story mode, I think it unlocks at level 5.

Get to lvl 5. You'll get letter telling you to talk to the crucible guy. Then you can join.

Think you need to be level 5.

Thank you, the problem suddenly disappear but I did nothing.

Thanks.

Another question, for those of you that have played all three classes, which do you like best and why? I love the Vanguard class in Mass Effect but I also liked the Infiltrator. Am I barking up the wrong tree here?
 
Let's all point and laugh at this peasant and his junkyard ship.

Come on, son. It's held together with ducttape and bubble gum. Live a little.



Yeah I see you in the back there, with your ol' scrapper.

As rad as the above jumpship is, OG ship is easily the best. Such an awesome and iconic design. Laaaaaaaaaahve it.

Speaking of Ships... this was DGAF just yesterday.

Who let kenny in space guys? Space isn't for the poor
 
My warlock is level 8. Which class should I try next? I think I only have time for one more before the beta ends. I need to choose wisely!
 
Anyone else get that purple ball on the roof with the fan at the tower?

What's the point lol?

Got it up there after trying for ages, activated the fan and it just bounces up and down!
 
I tried looking it up, but couldn't find anything: What are some of the permanent items we can get or win from the beta?

Q. Do I get something cool for playing the Destiny Beta?

Yup! Play the Destiny Beta on Saturday, July 26th, beginning at 2PM PDT, to earn an exclusive emblem for the retail version of Destiny. We’ll also be delivering some fun and unexpected surprises throughout the Beta!
 
I don't know if I was being dumb or too tired but I couldn't see an explanation of what the different items stats do for you (Strength & Discipline etc) so I looked it up. For anyone else unaware, details are below and more can be found on the Destiny Wiki

Defense, Bonuses, and Upgrades
Each piece of armor has a base defense level. The base defense level reflects the strength of the piece of armor and contributes to the player's overall defense level.

Some armor may include bonuses to certain player attributes, allowing for additional bonuses as follows:

  • Discipline - Decreases grenade cooldown time.
  • Intellect - Reduces the cooldown time of the player's Super Ability.
  • Light - Boosts the player's level, increasing the damage done by subclass abilities.
  • Strength - Reduces the cooldown time of a player's Passive Ability.
Additionally, some pieces of armor can be upgraded by gaining Experience. Upgrades may grant additional boosts to various statistics, such as the armor's defense level, faster reload times for certain weapons, or faster cooldown times for grenades or player abilities.
 
hit level 8 with my titan and did devil's lair twice with a buddy (2nd time was really easy). is there anything else fun to do? i don't really feel like grinding gear since everything will more then likely be reset for release.

Titan and Hunter are both a lot of fun. Hunter is more agile, Titan is more hulk-like.

Go with Titan IMO, there are too many locks and hunters online.
 
Open up your game to Everyone. It defaults to Friends only.

I think the PVP is rad at least for Control. I'm not a fan of the deathmatch tho.

Everyone keeps saying that, but I see no option for it. On the Bone all I see is a button to snap the party app.

Experiment with the other classes. That is what I'm doing so that I can make an informed decision on what class to roll at launch :)
