Destiny - The Taken King |OT| Time to Explain

This has probably already been asked, but I have The Legendary Edition ready to buy on Amazon and I need an answer before I use this credit. If I own the three expansions on PS3, will I own the PS4 versions, too, or will I have to buy them again after I get to current gen? I don't plan to buy a PS4 until early December, after the semester is over, and I'd like to play this now, but I don't mind waiting a couple months if it means I have to buy the content again.
 
No you don't. Everyone will receive a special consumable that will one time boost one character to level 25 and unlock the taken king quests.
Well what are the normal unlock conditions? I may use that item on my low level characters, but what do i need to have achieved on my 32?

Your DLC content and stats carry over. You'll need the base game for the PS4 though.
 
Why does the DLC have it's own OT? Just curious, as we already have 30 of them for the game itself.

real answer:

"New news, new thread."

This is a thread for the expansion. The community thread is for the DestinyGAF community. Both OPs serve different purposes.

I'm pretty sure that promotion of ps3 to ps4 ended a few months ago. May want to contact Sony directly and ask. They have a chat option on their site.
 
Smart move. Having one of each is the best way to play.

Had a Titan and Hunter back in the day. Needed them to get the Platinum Trophy, which I snagged back in March. In the vanilla days, I was one of those mythical Forever 29s. Killed the Titan and Hunter in order to to fill the slots with dupe warlocks. By the time TDB hit, I was tripling up on all weekly activities and got my crew up to 32, and then 34, posthaste.

With TTK though, there's no need for such drastic measures.
And some of the new trophies require having one of each class again.
FML.
:(

The post master robot will have it for you from the start. This is to allow newcomers to play the new stuff right away. Remember everyone will have only one and it is a one time use.
 
I wonder how many are going to show up at GameStop? I haven't went in there in a few months. Digital is when I can sit down, have a beer, relax, and enjoy the time away from the streets.

IIRC that wall to GameStop's stores is all lose. I remember when my boss at the time use to shake the wall. All those shingles use to come loose.

Those are pre orders

That doesnt answer my question... forget about that item for a moment. What does one need to do to gain access to the TTK missions?
 
Orxy and his Armada of Tombships have entered the Saturn System. Queen Mara Sov's Guard and fleet have been mobilized to intercept The Taken King, before he pushes into inner Sol.


The Vanguard is dispatching to all Guardian to suit up.

This is bad ass! Love it!

Thanks. I'm just hoping I can at least own the PS4 version of The Taken King. I'm on chat now seeing if I can buy it today or just wait until Black Friday and pick up Dark Souls 2: SOTFS instead.
 
Because one of the biggest releases of the year is not going to get buried in a Community thread, silly. (Or more like, 12 of them knowing DestinyGAF.)

Exactly its not just an expansion for some random game.

This release stands toe to toe with the release of any new game. Its a huge deal in the industry. I wish we could get real sales figures since digital won't be tracked. It will be multiple millions in the 1st month
 
Thought I was done with the game, I got my hawkmoon, I didn't need to chase the carrot anymore as I got the best prize. but all my friends are getting taken king and I'm taking my sweet time with metal gear so much that I'll take any excuse to push playing it longer.

Damn you destiny.
 
Game's held back by the last gen versions, unfortunately.
At this point, I expect any new tech developed for Destiny to be reserved for Destiny 2.

Even then I expect it to be held back. Let's be honest here, Activision hasn't even released a current gen only game yet.
