*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

Wow I really can't wait for this, I love everything about this game, the MP is so fast and fun.

Same, only problem I can see is I'll but an unthinkable number of hours into, I've played the Alpha/Beta more than some games I've purchased.

Ohh and in case anyone didn't know if you collect all the golden chests you'll get a new vehicle which is a bit quicker than the one you are given :)
 
I think I might change my order to the Xbox version.

You'd be missing out on the exclusive DLC for quite a while though, there's no way I'll consider the Xbone version of this game when I have both consoles but do what you're comfortable with.
 
I think I'm just getting a tad bored now as have explored what I can find, maxed all three characters and no new armour or weapons seem to be popping up now.

I'd have to replace the gloves and boots, that would drive me mad until replaced.. took me ages to get new boots on my Warlock.
 
So I only started playing this last night on PS4, but couldn't play for more than 5-10 minutes as I kept getting server disconnect errors, which just threw me straight out to the start screen?

I know it's BETA, but is this normal? I've not even managed to clear what I presume is a SP tutorial mission!

No that's normal, I've played it every day since that start of beta and only had one occasion where it said I had been disconnected and that was at the searching stage for PvP. But like you said it is a beta, they want people to break it so they can fix issues before release.
 
A lvl 20 cap is fine by me, and although that's is a cap you still continue levelling skills and abilities anyway :)
 
I was just playing in a crucible round, winning my team but not the match and some guy on the opposite team messaged me saying "Cheater Reported.". I was like what, how can you even cheat on a console?

edit: Now he reckons he's sending a video to Bungie, I'm not even sure of what he thinks I've done that's cheating.

he probably was unable to hit you at some stage, don't worry about it.. there was an issue with the net code that made anyone with a poor internet connection almost invincible.. basically hits against someone with a worse connection didn't count yet hits they made to you did, I thought that had been sorted but I'd guess it was something like that.
 
Wonder if they will nerf the Titan's ground smash in the full release? I was using it last night and it does seem to be easy kills, but also good for clearing out control points.

I doubt it, I think if any class will have a small nerf it will be the Hunter, the golden gun is very good in pvp and at this point they've got the best jump in game.

I'm going to play a Warlock in the full game, I decided that before I even played the alpha, they don't have much health in PVE but I enjoy playing it.
 
Finally going to get on for some tonight! Some of the videos look incredible!

Can anyone tell me, how much content is there in the beta? Is it only a few hours of playability or have they opened up most of the world?

In terms of the world it is a very, very small part of the game, you'll get a few hours out of the missions and you can re-play the strike mission for loot/fun. There are 2 PvP maps open in Beta and ofc you can play that as much as you like.. during the Iron Banner events a couple of other maps in PvP are opened up.
 
Does anyone know if character progress carries over? (I assume it doesn't)

They said that it was something that hadn't been announced either way, I can't see it happening though as it's not something that usally happens with Beta's especially the MMO type. I hope it doesn't carry over to be honest as I want to start fresh and enjoy the game from beginning to end.

You will have some rewards carried over ie for playing on Saturday night etc.
 
I wouldn't worry too much about areas on the planets, there will be plenty to do and the area's are linked to the story ie why we are on certain parts/planets etc. Also the game will continue to expand.

The low level cap is what Bungie wanted, they wanted it to be about getting loot and enjoying the game.. in a lot of MMO's people rush to get to max lvl so they can experience the end game, sometimes they'll do that by missing out the story etc. Also remember that although the lvl cap is there you will still be learning new abilities and upgrading.
 
I don't think even the Old Russia map is completely unlocked. There was a sector called King's something-or-other which you can't get more than a couple of yards into as the doors are locked.

Yeah it's not, either locked door are guarded by high level, considering the monsters on Old Russia are lvl 20 in places it obviously somewhere to re-visit at later stage also.
 
Prettty sure one of the Warlock sub-classes (Sunsinger) can become a decent healer - depends on what skill trees you decide to unlock/utilise. Its all the abilities that define what roles the Titan, Warlock and Hunter can be - not their loadout...

ps3ud0 :cool:

I noticed that there was some healing but didn't realise it could be tweeked that much, look forward to trying it. What interested me on one of the talents on the warlock was combustion which I assume is going to be a DOT.

I still reckon the majority of people are going to play the Hunter though as it was the favourite class for the streamers... I'm sticking to the Warlock however I hope they change the stupid band.. I mean the Hunter gets a nice cape and the Warlock gets some armband that you can hardly see (my only moan..)
 
From what I saw most people seemed to be playing Warlocks.

Sure Hunters get capes but Warlocks get awesome long coats.

I'd like a witches hat :)

There was a stats page for the Beta, I'm in work now but can't look for it but at the time the large majority were Hunters especially when you looked at the highest scores in PvP.
