Lol that sucks, should have just ordered it. Having been on Slickdeals for several years now, I should know better and always pull the trigger first and think later. Especially in a situation like this. Can't hurt to pre-order you know? You can always just cancel it. I was always so hesitant and as a result missed out on Ghost Edition, Limited Edition and several other deals. But this was the last straw. Never again!

Aw that's it? Was expecting more.
Not just lore; when you complete certain objectives associated with the grimoire cards (that you can unlock in the game) you can get bonuses. See Datto's video here.

Lore, but the more you rank up (by doing the challenge affiliated with a grimoire card) a card, they give all chars on your account certain bonuses/perks.

Mine are only showing my Xbox Live account as 'Destiny Accounts', despite playing it and choosing PS4 as my beta platform.
Gonna give it a day or so before I try again.
Ehh live n learn.
I'm cautious about games these days been burnt too many times and I just have a hangup on pre-ordering dlc.

You might want to check your b.net site profile, to see which system you have linked, you may have selected PS4 as the beta, but are still linked to your Xbox account.

Unlock one, then the next one should show your PSN account.
At least that's how it worked for me.

All my codes multiplied like 10 times after I unlocked them.
Me too. These codes are like Tribbles!

I still have no idea what this game is and why everyone is excited. seems like borderlands cross halo. Also no idea the size of the content available seems limited to sell the season pass, based on the ot description for worlds.
Then you might be in the wrong thread? Did you play the Alpha or Beta? The beta was free to all 4 systems.

If you have no idea you must live under a rock if you don't recognize Bungie as a big name game developer whose next project would get people excited or all the talk about the Alpha and Beta. You're welcome to investigate what the game is by reading the OP and following links. Can you really not fathom why people could be excited over it?
I'd suggest you expand on your point of view because as of right now you came into an OT to do a drive-by post.
Same. Do you have a PSN and Xboxlive accounts linked to your bungie account?

no I'm trying to find out more about the game, so this is the right thread correct there, wise guy.

Played Alpha as Hunter, then tried Warlock and Titan in the Beta to see what they are about...
Hunter it is.

I suggest reading the OP for some basic info on the game. Next try watching some videos for more impressions. Giant Bomb has a pretty nice one: http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/unfinished-destiny-07-18-2014/2300-9240/
DattoDoesDestiny is a great channel for Destiny info: https://www.youtube.com/user/DattoDoesDestiny
no you literally said you have no idea what this game is then in the same breath said you have no idea why people are excited and that it seems small on content. It was more of an accusation or statement then an inquisition about the game. Also almost every big game in the last 2-3 years has a season pass available from day 1.

then you chose very poor wording with the "i have no idea why everyone is excited" as there can be a pretty simple reasoning to that, outside of knowing what the game is.
As to your actual question, I'll let somebody else help out. I can only suggest thoroughly reading the OP, watching gameplay videos and developer diaries. But a way to simplify is to say "Borderlands meets Halo" I guess. It's a shooter with co-op mechanics based on acquiring loot and matchmaking multiplayer and with RPG mechanics (leveling up skills, etc...)

You said you have no idea what this game is and no idea why people are excited. If all the info in the first post ITT plus the hundreds of pages of comments from posters talking about why they are excited is not enough for you to "get it" then I'm not sure if anyone can help you. Sorry.

Guys, either post useful info or ignore him. I don't want the OT to become a hater thread.

Wasn't a criticism of site to be expected, tbh still surprised that site hasn't crashed yet, just remembered how many codes I had.

Some are getting extremely defensive, personally it doesn't bother me I was only pointing out what seemed like a drive-by post. I can see why though, the game is getting way too many threads of people being negative on the game. It gives GAF even more of a negative gamer bad name, like with Watch Dogs. I actually bothered with that game and found it entertaining, but I can agree with criticism.
You're trying way too hard to get avatar quoted lol. It must occur naturally, let it happen by itself.

This is very true. The scout rifle felt very comprehensive in PvE to me. A head shot machine yet still a good rate of fire, which seemed very important to deal with waves solo.
The hand cannons didn't have enough of a power advantage to overcome their accuracy shortcomings. Here's hoping the buff works.

So Amazon doesn't have Digital Guardian Edition for PS4 but they have it for PS3.
Or Expansion Passes?
