I pre-ordered and canceled already from Amazon earlier, am preloading now.

edit:



"Buy" it from Amazon, get your code, cancel your order. Code still works.

I'm surprised that still works

Thanks!

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Awesome will do the same as soon as I get home!

So, anyone double dipping on the PS4 version? I can't wait an extra month to play.

I am. Furthemore, I'm playing it on both PS4 and PC

So, anyone double dipping on the PS4 version? I can't wait an extra month to play.

i want to because I can't wait but what's stopping me is lack of cross save so i'll need to start from scratch in October no matter what. Also, I'm not sure how much I'll get if I trade in the PS4 version towards the PC version. I'm not playing the game at the same time on both platforms. I'm not prepared to buy expansions for both platforms. When PC releases that's where I'll play.

I am. The Nvidia 1080ti deal helped my decision.

 

[Turin Turambar]

man, that keyboard config looks...intimidating.

Really? This looks intimidating

Destiny 2? Not so much.

Nah, I'm only double or even tripple dipping Rockstar Games.

This thread is a little confusing, for any one who pre-preordered through battle.net we don't have to do anything right? we get the beta the 28th.

[Dave_6]

Primary is still going to be PS4 but I'm quite anxious to try out the PC version.

Didn't preorder but got a code with my 1080ti so I'll have to wait till the 29th.

 

[mephixto]

yay!! got a code from Geforce Experince!

I mean... did you read OT?

 

[CountAntonius]

Oh, so the deal ends at the end of the month? You sure?

When you google Destiny 2 GmG pops up with 18% off. The text underneath says "18% discount offer ends Monday! Includes beta early access. Go be a hero."

That's where I got it from.

 

[ISee]

yay!! got a code from Geforce Experince!

nothing here :/
as always

 

[Dead Prince]

Yay. I didn't

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Jumped in and preloaded. GreenmanGaming has a great deal that includes the beta code that ends Monday.

Standard edition 49.19

Digital Deluxe Edition 81.99

Thanks dude, grabbed the deluxe.

Pre-loading the beta.

 

[CountAntonius]

Thanks dude, grabbed the deluxe.

Pre-loading the beta.

Sweet. Did the same.

 

[Spartancarver]

Heads up, Destiny 2 PC is 18% off both standard and deluxe editions on Green Man Gaming. You get the beta key immediately on checkout.

 

[Frostburn]

SUPER hyped to finally play one of my favorite games on PC. Thanks for the thread, looking good!

 

[The Lamonster]

Thanks OP. I requested to join the clan. Cannot wait.

 

[ZugZug123]

Damn it I have only 2-3h on 8/29 to play this thing before catching a plane to go to Pax :/ hope the servers don't completely melt.

Edit: followed the advice to order from Amazon to get early access beta key. Did not cancel since I might like the game.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

I've got 28th and 29th off work. Never played Destiny 1. I'm pretty excited.

Does anyone know of a decent primer on lore/story (I know, I know) for D1?

They are at PAX too, surprised if they don't have PC stations.

http://www.ishtar-collective.net is great for reading the lore. They nicely chains relative cards to each other and create intended stories.

You want read Book of Sorrows, trust me: http://www.ishtar-collective.net/categories/books-of-sorrow

Then there is youtube channels like Byf's that are focused on exploring, explaining and connecting D1 lore: https://www.youtube.com/user/ReachForgeNetwork/videos

 

[Blam]

Lmao you seriously kidding me. So the full game is 29gb confirmed. The guy who downloaded the alpha of the game said it was 29gb, and that version is the dev build so it's most definitely this.

Also time to datamine the literal fuck out of this.

To everyone mentioning that PS4 codes worked, thank you! I had one sitting around from Amazon unused, and now it's preloading!

Correct you should be able to download it already

never in my life

 

[Turin Turambar]

lol

I notice now that's Arma 2, not Arma 3. Arma 3 is even more complex, lol.

And like with any game once you set binds like you want them for key functions and just put in hours they become natural to use and part of muscle memory.

 

[phyrlord]

I mean... did you read OT?

Yeah my bad, didn't read far enough, I got caught up in "Code? What code? I didn't get a code!"

"If you have pre-order through Battle.Net you are good to go without any key redemption stuff."

Thanks!

 

[Dec]

The new binds are much better than the reveal ones.

I'll still swap some stuff around, but it makes much more sense now.

 

[feel]

Preloading. Used the Amazon exploit but will only cancel after the beta unless I love it.

Excited that there's SLI support already in the latest drivers, gives me hope for a really well optimized game.

 

[nomis]

is the early access process automatic if you preordered on battle.net?

 

[Cade]

You guys who preordered a physical PC copy from Amazon get your codes already?

 

[Tovarisc]

Ye, those OG binds were... interesting. Also planning to move stuff around in beta.

Yes

Yes

I wonder if they will offer per-class binds in the same way hero shooters have begun offering per-hero binds.

 

[feel]

Yeah, preordered physical, got beta code instantly.

 

[Bunta]

You guys who preordered a physical PC copy from Amazon get your codes already?

I got mine almost right after pre-ordering it earlier today.

 

[Cade]

Yeah, preordered physical, got beta code instantly.

Weird, I've had a preorder for physical since March and didn't get mine. I'll contact support

Might be simpler to just cancel and preorder again. Unless you have a smaller price attached to that old preorder.

 

[woahitsshant]

I apologize for the request, but can someone link me to the DGAF PC clan, and the discord? I quoted the OP but it doesn’t seem to be working. A direct message will be much appreciated.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Got a code from Amazon instantly after pre-ordering the PC version just now.

 

[Tovarisc]

I wonder if they will offer per-class binds in the same way hero shooters have begun offering per-hero binds.

I doubt there will be as Destiny doesn't really need them, imo.

What would you bind differently between e.g. Warlock and Hunter?

They are embed into email tags, but shot you PM.

I like having dodge on mouse button in games that have a dodge (Hunter class ability) but wouldn't want all class abilities on a mouse button.

For example having a dodge on a hand that isn't also controlling directional movement is superior because if it's on a key such as F then it is hard to hit D and F in an non-awkward way. Suddenly dodging to the right feels clunky.

The way they have it now on V means I guess they want you to use your thumb but hitting V with my thumb isn't super ideal, or at least, I would prefer it on a mouse button.
