It will likely be extended a day or two.

Edit: If you haven't pre-ordered and are doing the "Open-Beta" I would suggest making sure you have downloaded the Beta and at least logged-in and started it once before it is possibly/expected to be extended as they have had a cutoff date/time in the past that will lock you out if you haven't downloaded/played it by the time they extend it.

well, finally got my amazon code, but it says it was already used. Support says they'll send me a new one but who knows if it'll get here on time. Might just go with greenman...?

Corsair 8x16GB Dominator Platinum DDR4-3200
Samsung 960 Pro 2TB PCIe NVMe 3500MB/s/2100MB/s


can play this game at 4k and 60fps without pop-ins?

I have Windows 10 64-bit if that matters.

Thanks

Having two of the same video card means they cancel each other out so you'll just be staring a black screen when you start that game up.

Sorry.

Anyone know what the level cap is going to be in the beta?
Click to expand...

There is zero player progression in the Beta with just a few loot drops here and there.

This "Beta" is as bare-bones as it gets and really doesn't represent the Destiny overall experience that well. It's a glorified demo with three separate game modes (Story Mission, Strike, and PvP).

Edit: That said, I'm in it for how it looks/plays/translates on PC this time around and that traditionally great Bungie gunplay/gameplay.

I was super excited that i was going to have the upcoming weekend free to play Destiny all weekend long but i guess i need to wait for the actual release.

I'd be surprised if the Beta wasn't extended through at least Friday/Saturday just as the other Destiny Betas have been by a few days each time.

I think you're just max level, right?

Yes. You should be max level with preset gear set for your class, 2 sub-classes and 1 attunement / sub-class available.

TAB		= Summon Ghost		= D simulated d-pad
Q		= Grenade 		= L bumper
G		= highlight player 	= R bumper
SHIFT		= sprint 		= L joystick press
C		= melee 		= R pad press
SPACE		= jump 			= L paddle
R		= reload 		= R paddle
CTRL		= crouch 		= B button
F		= Super Ability 	= Y button
X		= Air Move		= X button
V		= Class Ability		= A button
R mouse 	= ADS 			= L trigger
L mouse 	= Shoot 		= R trigger (or use soft pull for ADS and full pull to shoot)
F1		= Start 		= menu
N/A 		= Game Status		= N/A
MOUSE 		= Look 			= R track pad
Arrow Keys	= Emotes		= R paddle mode shift for ABXY

EDIT: Reformatted and included all bindings.

Hey, thanks for this. I don't know that I will ever use my steam controller for the game but it's nice to have the option.

I just recently picked up a 1440p monitor. Will my 970 will be able to reliably run most games at 1440/60? If not, I may end up jumping on that 1080/Destiny 2 deal while I still can.

No, the 970 is a 1080p card IMO. I have one and it's not up to snuff for 1440p in modern games. I went for a 1080p/144Hz monitor instead and it handles that really well, I hit that 100fps+ sweet spot more often than not. I plan to upgrade to a Vega 56 though for Freesync.

I really like the look of the open world activity. Halo CE will forever be my favorite fps campaign because of those large open world maps that gave you flexibility of how to take on the fights. Haven't played a Bungie game since Reach but I enjoyed it even though it was rough playing on a controller after switching to PC. I know the EDZ is'nt in the beta but it's something to look for.
