I just got a notification for a destiny update to the beta. What's that all about? I thought the servers might be live but nah, still the same error.
 
So forgive my ignorance but if you are playing the game solo.... Do you see other players in your game, or is it just invites to go over to another persons game?

Yes you do. You'll see them running/ using the speeder, fighting fallen, or doing public events. You can always invite to join them.
 
Maybe a totally silly question, but are you required to link your PSN account to a Bungie account in order to play Destiny (both beta and final)?
 
For those of us with digital preorders, when will we be allowed to download the beta? Grace Chen time?

US? Probably the same time everyone else with retail preorders will be able to.
If you preordered in the EU store you can already preload, that's what I did (+ cancellation afterwards).

Help me GAF! Bungie newb here.

What am I doing wrong? I went to Bungie's Destiny beta site, signed in via PSN, and then it sent me an email to verify my account.

I clicked the link in the email and it said I have already verified my account, but the beta site acts like I haven't.

Any ideas?
 
stupid question and i don't feel like going through 150 pages for the answer. If I have the alpha beta downloaded from the last beta will that still work or is this beta a new build that needs to be downloaded all over again?
 
Someone said the 18th but the PSN store says the 17th, idk how it will go down TBH. This is as confusing as the Halo 3 Beta
Never heard or read the 18th, pretty sure you can see it on the store page that it says 17th.

10 am PDT

I figured it would be at 10. Which is okay, if it wasn't for the likelihood of psn crashing tomorrow. Time to prepare myself for the frustration of staring at the game library for 75 minutes. Then wait another hour for a 15 gigabyte download.

Fuck.

I feel like half this thread is the combination of questions that have been asked a million times, the answers, and the people saying to look at the OP. So many pages and the BETA hasn't even started.
 
Just as a heads up - Regional DestinyGAF clans have been activated so far for:

Canada
US West
US Central
US East
Aus/NZ

With more to come as needed (We know we are missing some massive regions atm like UK, EU, Asia, but don't fear - we are simply waiting for those admins to get on)

If your in Destiny GAF - Apply here for a regional clan. (More details about regions here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=121361806&postcount=150

DestinyGAF Community Thread http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=121362319

Please keep all discussion in that thread please. This is just a heads up for people not looking in the application/community thread.

I already had a beta code but I created an EU PSN account and pre-ordered/downloaded the beta so it's on my system tomorrow morning. What's the process for activating the beta going to be like? Is it through Bungie.net? Or I guess it'll just work tomorrow. It says "Come back on Jul 17 2014 to get your download code(s)!"

I made it through the work week. I'm ready for two days off!!!
I honestly can't believe tomorrow is finally the day. It feels like SOOOOOOO long ago we first saw those pictures of the traveler.. even longer since the rumors started. Its just so... cathartic. New Gen. New Playstation. New Bungie Game. Its gonna be the fucking business and a half.
 
Sorry if it's already been asked, but is there any chance of the codes going out at midnight?
Read OP.
The public beta will be released in two waves. The first being on the Playstation 3 and 4 on July 17th. After that the Beta will be down for maintenance from July 21st to the 22nd to prepare for the Xbox (360 and One) launch, which will be on July 23rd. Your codes will go out at 10am PDT of the day the beta is supposed to go live on your respective platform. Or you can sign in to your Bnet account and get it there.

^Almost sounds like checking your b.n page is the way to go. I bet that refreshes before you get your email.
