I need to be able to spin my character 360° so I can see if the hair is ASS before loading in. Lol, also dance preview would be nice in the creation tool.

Go bald or exo? Both of those are like wearing a helmet though. I'm prepared for the creation tool to be shit, but hope it's robust enough to make a guardian I enjoy looking at.

WHY ISN'T IT 10pm MST YET? Have fun South Pacific GAF. Avenge some puppies and gather some loot for those of us waiting on the servers to go live.

[Truphenom]

Got the last sleep out of the way! Gotta remember to sign up for that Xbox clan. Then picking up my new PS4 and doing the same thing. What a time to be alive.

 

[Blunoise]

omg!! its starting!!!

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Everyone who has the disk version or lives in that time zone, can now play.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Going for midnight launch in 1 hour

 

[Lima]

I love your optimism son. No. No that is not right.

If has the disc he can pop it in and play right now as it just launched in NZ.

Servers are live globally.

I used to be Exo. Thinking Awoken this time around.

Wasn't it the same with Destiny 1? I remember having the disc and playing before midnight digital release

Edit: People on reddit saying they got in with a disc copy in Europe, fuck yeah. I'll get my disc later

 

[The ๖ۜBronx]

Also maybe, not gonna confirm but based on my reading of the UI, you can use a different shader per armor piece...?

Here we are at last! Yeh I'm honestly not sure how it's going to work, that confused me in the beta. I'm hoping when you unlock a shader you unlock it for all and can mix and match what you like. That would cripple my ability to do much in the game beyond dressing up though, a very dangerous addition indeed.

If I buy it from the Aussie/Kiwi store can we use our D1 accounts on our main IDs?

 

[jdstorm]

And its live.

Congrats Bungie. Time to do an ENTHUSIASTIC DANCE

Datto is playing.

 

[DNAbro]

holy shit the opening

 

[Blunoise]

wow returning players are really going to like the opening

 

[everyday math]

This is neat

I wasn't even thinking. Yeah, if you physicailly get a copy however you can play now

 

[LiK]

I hate these comments since I can't enjoy it. Gonna go into campaign blind so I'll be back once I finish that. Bye for now.

 

[ValfarHL]

The beta bored me but I'm still hype as fuck and want to play the game today...

What is wrong with me?

 

[Azzawon]

DGAF Discord invite doesn't appear to be working for me. Looking to get a bit more involved in the community this time around, wasted way too much time playing alone in D1!

Edit: nvm, I'm in!

 

[Warnen]

whynotboth.gif

I don't way that kinda of time any more

 

[Kenzodielocke]

You can play with your characters you created in Destiny 1.

 

[Ferny]

You tease!

Yeah, same here. If they add in a proper transmog-ish system, I'd spend all my free time looking for the best looking pieces to make into a few sets. The shader thing has me hyped though, I just hope I can get a decent red shader quickly lol.

 

[Kyne]

So it looks like to be able to create a new character you'll need to have an open space in your character slots from Destiny 1 (if you owned/played the game).

Otherwise it'll just bring over all 3 existing guardians.

 

[Marvel]

Into a tightly sealed cardboard box I go. (With airholes)

Amen. Hadn't even thought of transmog – though I'm not sure if they will (would love it though!). Why do Bungie's art department have to be so damn good. Spent so much of D1 just looking.

 

[everyday math]

Whoevers playing right now take pics of the CC screen!

 

[Landford]

Cant play until PC, but...

Spoiler

Eyes up.

 

[Freeman76]

Holy shit im in the EU i can now get through to the intro, watching it now. Before it said servers unavailable

Shit... well I guess I'll be immediately deleting my old n busted toons then.

 

[rdytoroll]

Haha, no problem. Now I just have to wait till Gamestop gives out the copies. They always give them out a day before like 3 hours before closing. Hopefully this time too lol

 

[glaurung]

Now to figure out how to sleep in the middle of the day at least for a few hours.
Damn, I've never been so hyped about the game.

That is some first rate wallpaper, sir! Commendable!

 

[BreezyLimbo]

I sure hope the PC version remembers what I did

I linked my account afterall!

 

[noomi]

Wait, wut?

It's out in NZ already? I though it was still a fee hlurs away even though it was early.

 

[Lizzy]

Um, you have a cage. Bad boy.

 

[Eric WK]

It just hit midnight.

Wait, this seems to imply the opening scene/cinematic/mission(?) starts before the character screen if you've played Destiny 1. Or is it that you see all three there and have to delete one before starting the game (if you want to make a new one).

Want to see my old guardians for sure but don't want to be stuck running the new content with them over starting with the characters I mean to move forward with.

 

[Hawkian]

this is a normal speed for a thread to be moving at 8:12am eastern

 

[rdytoroll]

Damn NZ and their time traveling..

 

[GlamFM]

German fan-site reporting that it opened for everyone?

Can someone confirm?

 

[The ๖ۜBronx]

this is a normal speed for a thread to be moving at 8:12am eastern

So you're saying we need to ramp it up?

German fan-site reporting that it opened for everyone?
Can someone confirm?

For everyone physical or everyone meaning digital as well?
I believe it's out for everyone who has the physical copy now.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Wait I thought this launched on Wednesday

 

[SgtCobra]

Picking up a copy in an hour lets do thisssss

 

[GlamFM]

Wait I thought this launched on Wednesday

It´s already wednesday somewhere.

 

[The ๖ۜBronx]

Wait I thought this launched on Wednesday

It's 00:15 in NZ at the moment, Wednesday. Servers are unlocked so if you have a physical copy you should be able to hop on and play. Afaik digital are waiting for the rolling midnight release.

 

[Hawkian]

German fan-site reporting that it opened for everyone?

Can someone confirm?

lol?

There's no fucking way it's live for digital unlocks everywhere yet

Wait I thought this launched on Wednesday

Midnight 9/6 local or Eastern, whichever comes first.

 

[misterck]

German fan-site reporting that it opened for everyone?

Can someone confirm?

Servers opened worldwide so I you have a disc you're good to go, if you're digital you're held back until your regions store unlocks your game at midnight where you are.

 

[Freeman76]

Seems they have flicked the switch early im in the UK and playing the first mission

EDIT: Disc version

 

[Auctopus]

German fan-site reporting that it opened for everyone?

Can someone confirm?

Probably people who have the physical copies? Servers are probably up but the digital copies are locked.
