Has Bungie said anything about what resolution and frame rate the different platforms will run at?

1080P 30FPS for PS4/Xbox One
 
Just ran into EverydayMath as an event started. That one where you have to destroy an elite walker as it constantly spams noble enemies is rough.

My PSN is Skeeblar, by the way.
 
Damn, this video hyped me up even more: TTL does The Devil's Lair

And watching some character creation videos is making me rethink my Guardian now. I was going to play as a Hunter, and have my race be Awoken female. But now I think I'm going to be an Exo instead. HK-47 knockoff > Future night elf
 
Afting spending the last couple hours in game, so far, it's everything I had hoped it would be. It's phenomenal. My only question is, is there only one story mission in alpha? I can't seem to find a second.
 
Just played this evening with my brother and my dad. The game is seriously good. No network issues, great gunplay and I'm already addicted to upgrading everything. Met all my expectations. For people worried about A.I., they can and will surprise you and kick your ass at times.

Seriously, the AI is so good in this. Mobs hide relatively realistically, and when you throw a grenade, they scatter.
 
How often do the public events occur? Been playing for a couple of hours and haven't seen one.

Anyone playing this now or will be playing it, feel free to add me on PSN: PatriotPaine
 
I was having trouble around... 1 or 2 PM EST for a short bit.

This is a good thing though. means interest is high and tons of people are wanting to play. I'm ok with that. Luckily I'm in now on my warlock. Going to see if I can get a legend difficulty strike going soon.
 
Pretty much. You have to realize though that Bungie did not do a good job selling it. Even they admit that. It's hard to really sell a new franchise. More so when it's as ambitious as this. As you can tell they've decided the best way to sell you on it is via this surprise alpha access and the beta. Then they've made some really kick ass new videos that help too.So you really can't fault people for having been down on it before.

I agree, it's though to sell a mmo like shooter without getting people to play it, but the game was getting hate from it's menus to it's weapons to almost every aspect of what they had shown so far. Hopefuly I can get in the alpha tomorrow to see if I like it or not, I'm probably going to like it, very much.

Yeah and we've gotten to play plenty at least. Though I think I'll still be at the gates begging to be let back in during server troubles. :p
 
I keep finding new areas! This game is blowing my mind right now, just stumbled upon an abandoned boatyard.
