Halp! Is anyone else getting the issue where the .exe minimizes itself on launch? Already updated drivers.

I'm with you. No solution.
Aight, got something;

run
%appdata%
bungie > destinypc > prefs

delete these CVAR files and relaunch.

worked for me.

Open cvar.xml and put windowmode to 1. Launches it in windowed mode.

 

[CrudeDiatribe]

No dedicated servers?

Both servers and P2P at the same time, used for different things.

 

[Gragen]

I cannot even...I had no idea the difference between PS4 and PC would be this huge. If the whole game and the patrol zones play as well as the first mission does I think this game is going to be huge in the PC market space.

 

[Swarna]

FoV settings are in, max is 105.

Do you know if the values are based on 4:3 or 16:9? 105 16:9 is kind of meh (slightly better than Overwatch's max, slightly lower than CS:GO's default).

I don't know but it looks wide enough for me, no complaints.

If you play with a controller on PC will it feel like console or are you just doubly fucked?

I'm sure controller is fine for PvE but you're gonna have a bad time in PvP.

 

[madp0k]

Any spare codes going?

 

[mxgt]

Oh man the gun play is so smooth, it plays so nice @ 100hz/fps

 

[Nesmaster75]

I don't want to beg, but Amazon screwed me on the pre-order code and all of my friends are playing today except me (by this time tomorrow with open beta, they'll probably have finished the beta multiple times). If anyone has a PC code they aren't going to use today, I'd greatly appreciate it in a PM.

 

[Slackbladder]

Hmm. With a 1080ti and 7700K, 4K@60fps isn't possible even with no AA and SSR and shadows at High (could try medium). Looks like sacrifices have to be made. Also I can't get 1440p. I just get an unsupported resolution message on my TV (which I don't get with other games at 1440p).
Only other issue is with the controller I'm using. Admittedly it's a DualShock 4 using DS4Windows but it works fine on other games. In this, however, there is definitely issue with turning and movement. I'll get an Xbox One controller soon so I'll see how it plays then.
Apart from that it's good. I mean it's very much like the Destiny I remember. In 4K it is rather pretty too. Just need to work out a few issues. If they can be fixed I'll be happy to get stuck in.

 

[Pineapple]

Is there a way to just hold shift to sprint instead of having it on toggle?

 

[CountAntonius]

Smooth and well optimized. I think this game will do very well on PC.

Yo! I talked to an Amazon chat guy for less than 5 minutes and he sent me a beta code, right there in the chat. Try it out!

 

[bee]

it runs fine and looks good but i can't help get the feeling of 'is that it?'

 

[Exploratory]

I'm sure controller is fine for PvE but you're gonna have a bad time in PvP.

That's not what I mean though. Is there aim assist and magnetism if I use a controller?

 

[Rexatality]

Change the keybinds

 

[Tahnit]

It’s a beta. Only an hour worth of content. 50 hours in main game.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Yes, and it's horrible.

 

[arts&crafts]

I havent played yet, but its a loot game. How much loot is in the beta?

 

[RickyRozay]

With my 980ti and 2600k with the max setting I'm getting anywhere from 60-120fps. I think I've seen it dip to 58 on the inverted spire when you first instance in near that huge battle to the right.

 

[B00TE]

Man, this is just so good on PC. Double dipping for sure.

 

[CaptainSmirnov]

HDR looks great. Thought it was broke on windows but I guess that's just shitty Mass Effect Andromeda

What are your settings in nvidia CP? Is windows HDR on?

Disable DS4Windows. The game natively supports Dualshock 4 with proper button icons.

Thanks dude! Knew it was something like that but didn't know how to fix it.

1080p?

I'm wondering what I'll need to lock 60fps with the same build at 1440p

 

[Mechanized]

Yes, and it's horrible.

Eh feels fine to me. Using a controller with no aim assist is way worse.

 

[Animator]

Game runs and plays amazing. This will be huge on pc.

 

[Nesmaster75]

Yo! I talked to an Amazon chat guy for less than 5 minutes and he sent me a beta code, right there in the chat. Try it out!

I tried this with multiple reps yesterday afternoon & both just told me to wait 24 hours lol. Just checked my email & still nothing. What exactly did you say?

 

[Gav47]

No dedicated servers?

Nope

Pretty sure it's not that simple. Otherwise, it would be an absolutely massive oversight.

Nope it really still happens, The Division did this at launch as well.

They need to fix this before launch or ddosing people during Trials will be rampant

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Eh feels fine to me. Using a controller with no aim assist is way worse.

It pulled my aim from one dude to another who was next to him. I don't call that fine.

I want the option to turn it off, I play many games with no aim assist and do great.

 

[Conor_Fool]

This was like 30 minutes ago fwiw, only like 15 minutes after my order.

Said Hey man, I didn't receive my code with the preorder. He asked for the order number, I gave it to him. He said gimme 2 minutes...then just replied with the beta code, lol.

 

[nightmare-slain]

really happy with this definitely going with PC. the PC version runs so well.

it's gonna be a long wait until october though.

 

[RickyRozay]

1080p?

I'm wondering what I'll need to lock 60fps with the same build at 1440p

Yup at 1080p with SMAA.

 

[Dolobill]

Wow pvp sucks, ttk is too high and rifles feel like bb guns. When I have to switch to a pistol to do damage there is a problem.

Is this your first Bungie game?

 

[wwm0nkey]

Yup at 1080p with SMAA.

Disable SMAA, it will tank your FPS for very little benefit (it's broken right now)

 

[Moobabe]

I keep losing connection when looking for the Speaker - guess it's the server load. Sadly the game boots you back to the start of the mission when you drop.

Anyone else having issues?

 

[Spartancarver]

Disable SMAA, it will tank your FPS for very little benefit (it's broken right now)

Huh? That's MSAA. SMAA is post-process AA, should not affect FPS very much.

 

[ramshot]

After 90 minutes with it, I'm actually pretty impressed. I did the intro mission, one PvE strike and one Crucible.

Firstly, the tech is solid. The framerate and frametimes are good, performance details below. Controls feels precise, lag free and smooth. All in all a huge joy to watch and control for a fan of lag free, smooth FPS action. For references, and do not take this lightly, I did not feel like I was any less in control than in nuDOOM.

Secondly, while it certainly was nothing new on paper in terms of what I saw and experienced, it was impressive and all around enjoyable enough to get me pumped about getting the full game.

I was getting anywhere between 80fps and 144fps, with average perhaps around 95fps.

1440p, Gsync
Everything maxed except AA on SMAA (MSAA halved framerates)
1080Ti OC
6700k @ 4.5
16G DDR4/2666
Game on SSD, observed no asset stream hitching what-so-ever. Only saw some from watching frametime graph, but in gameplay I never noticed.
Win10

 

[RickyRozay]

Gotcha. I think they said MSAA is broken for the beta also so maybe I'll just try it off or with FXAA.

 

[Conor_Fool]

Yup at 1080p with SMAA.

Gracias! Can't wait to try this out

Disable SMAA, it will tank your FPS for very little benefit (it's broken right now)

And thank you as well!

50 hours of the pve strike stuff?

 

[Spartancarver]

And thank you as well!

Pretty sure he meant MSAA, SMAA should be working fine

 

[luulubuu]

In case you want to stream, you should check this http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1424574

By now, the game displays your real name into the chat, and the toggle doesnt work.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Hold down right mouse.

For scope not no scope

cheers anyway

I had to do 1080p because I couldn't get 1440p to work and then bumped to 200 percent resolution percentage with everything else maxed out.

Turned of msaa and put smaa, 60fps no issues with an i7 7600k and a 1080ti, with msaa it was 35 fps

 

[Mutagenic]

My bad, not sure.

 

[Kurumi]

Omg yes. That is a godsend.

 

[Bustanen]

Runs great at 1440p with highest settings and SMAA but jaggies are clearly visible. 4K with high settings almost steady 60fps with small dips.

Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.7GHz
GTX 1080 @ 2GHz, Memory @ 11GHz
16GB DDR4 @ 2667MHz

60fps makes a night and day difference to consoles. Day fucking one on PC.
