I just leave my warlock here...
It's weird to think, to me at least, that service like PSN couldn't handle pre-load traffic of larger releases, but then I have been spoiled by Steam for years now. They could try staggering it little by e.g. timezone release of preload, but I doubt they will do it.

I'll name my female titan Cortana
Sir, that's not posturing, that's a statement of intent.

Hunter or Titan??? Hunter or Titan??? Decisions, decisions.
I played Titan during the beta and seemed to dig it, but that Hunter is pretty tempting too.
I wish they had a 4rg class in this game.
3 is just so limiting.

Oh yeah one other question .......
I really love Marty O'Donnell's enchanting and spectacular score for this game.
Sadly, they discarded him and we STILL do even have an official reason for this. So here is what I am wondering.
1) Has there been any unofficial word as to why they terminated O'Donnell from the team? He and Bungie had a 12+ year collaborative relationship. Why get rid of him now? Especially as they are starting a new franchise with his compositions so prominently featured!
2) Whose decision was this? Was it Bungie? Activision? Both?
2) Is there any chance that Bungie/Activision might be magnanimous and conciliatory and bring O'Donnell back on the team? It seems utterly ridiculous to forsake the work of such a superb and stupendous talent that has been so instrumental (no pun intended) into breathing life into Bungie's worlds.

I've decided to go
95% sure after seeing blink in action. That plus triple jumps makes for some crazy mobility as a blade dancer.

Gah, looks so good! . My titan shall be mighty...and blue. That frohawk really sold me on the class, as weird as it sounds. It's the closest thing to my hair in the game other than a fade.
They better be beefing it up. My guess is the game does a few million day one, with many of those skewed toward digital downloads.

Lord Shaxx says hello
Well Lord Shaxx is a titan wannabe (titannabe?) stuck with a hunter's title. He doesn't resemble a hunter at all
EDIT: Wait he is in fact a titan isn't he?

There isn't much legally they will ever have to say.
He's a Titan for sure!

I still haven't decided what race.. I was Exo Warlock for both alpha and beta, but if characters continue on for Destiny sequels, would I want to stick with him for that long or should I betray him for an Awoken with a sweet blue mohawk? This is going to be difficult. I know my Hunter whenever I decide to actually make one will be a human female. Titan can be whatever.

That live action trailer was good fun to me. Sure the dialog/acting is cheesy but that's just part of the charm.

You will all bow to my Awoken's bright pink hair.

Hey all,
So I've made a group/clan twice (alpha and beta I think) and I don't think it saved for the final game. Which is fine, I'll make it again and send the invites out to my mates, but I've been really confused about the whole system and apparently there's documents around that details what the difference between a group and a clan is, if there is one, and how to go about creating it properly.
Any links or responses would be greatly appreciated...looking forward to seeing some of you next week!
Also, edit if this has been asked before, sorry. Was gonna scour the thread but got lost in the crazy amazing OP.

Excellent. You won't regret it
I've already decided Bladedancer - Hunter just off reading the abilities, but where did you see blink in action? Link the video please?
I'm just trying to be optimistic
The trick is being pessimistic, take 2 weeks off work to download, it ends up DLing fine, boom you have 2 weeks to play anyway!
Lord Shaxx says hello
Because of the white font, I definitely read "Crucible Chandler" first.
Sorry mate, but I prefer to bow toQueen of The Reef
Bah! Titans don't bow to no one. Not to cosmetic hair dyes, not to some reefer Queen, not to no one and no thing that perishes at the end of our fists.
You guys can bow all you want, though. Suits you

Oh, I re-read your post. Gunslinger gets Triple Jump, Bladedancer gets Blink. You can't have both at once.

Don't worry, my Awoken is gonna kill her and take her place.
Then you will bow to her pink hair!

Suck it hunters.
I certainly hope there is more to the tower. I also hope the amount of people in the tower at once increases although I doubt it

Still a total load of BS!
"Destiny is a ten year planned franchise" they say.
Its ludicrous to think we'll never get to hear more of O'Donnell's contributions for all the rest of the time this franchise goes. Unless, something is drastically altered.
