Yes matey. Just followed McDaniel's description on a previous page. Had to find a legit Argentna address (used a hotel) but it worked.

Nice one, shame I already spent the £70 from the UK store haha. Ah well, I'm always a little cautious of buying from the others, don't want to lose it if they ever decide to change anything!

Just did this, clicked buy - only to realise I ordered the base version. Can't find any way to upgrade it so hope I can get the season pass at some point for just as cheap. Game was £25

Season Pass is on store too;

Ahh cheers.

Was looking into it and it seems there is no benefit to getting the gold edition now as everyone will get the armour bonus at some point and as above you can get the season pass as an addon?

9th, 10th, 11th and 14th for me

You getting it on XBone or PS4?

PS4, all my Destiny clan mates are getting it so thought I'd stick with them.

Also changed my order from the physical Gold edition to the Digital Gold edition. Managed to get it for £50 so ended up cheaper than the physical edition, with the benefit of being able to pre-load it and get an hour or two in this time next week.

What store are you referring to?

The argentina Xbox store. you can't do it on PS4 as they are region locked.

buying the season pass separately costs more. Its £30 on its own and the game is £40

Diddums · 1 Mar 2016 at 07:07

Ah gutted. Oh well, thanks for posting anyway

Anyone know what the cheapest deal is for the Gold edition? I *think* I'd prefer a physical copy but then I can never turn a good deal down.

amazon have the gold edition for £60. About the cheapest around at the minute. There were cheaper deals, but they were limited time vouchers that got you £10 off etc.. that have finished now.

Diddums · 1 Mar 2016 at 10:17

Cheers Fr0dders, looks like the jungle it is.

Davey_Pitch · 1 Mar 2016 at 10:35

Yeah, Amazon was the best price I found for the Gold edition until I got myself some cheap PSN credit. I normally prefer physical over digital but I don't see myself getting rid of this game at all, absolutely loved the beta.

RoboCod · 1 Mar 2016 at 12:06

I feel the need to get this now you lot are going to be on it together...

Fr0dders · 1 Mar 2016 at 13:43

we did have some massive numbers during the beta. There will be no shortage of players if they do confirm 8 player end game content.

Wish they would hurry up and do that - raids alone sold me on Destiny, I need something of that significance otherwise whatever the 'grind' is isnt compelling enough to do...

I'd like to see some change in the world....one thing that always bugged me about Destiny was that the world never changed.

If The Division can move into the Spring as a major DLC with wildlife/plants starting to take back the city....awesome-sauce.

must admit i'm surprised they haven't talked about end game yet. The game releases in 7 days so the game is done and shipped now. I can only assume they have a raid type experience they are planning on releasing afterwards that isn't finished yet and will need a patch to unlock and be available a few weeks after release to give people time to gear up and enjoy the story without rushing to get in the raid.

ps3ud0 · 1 Mar 2016 at 14:46

When do you think online shops start charging pre-orders? Think Im gonna have to cancel til I see more from Massive on it

EDIT: I havent watched all the IGN First stuff so perhaps they mentioned it there?

only good raid destiny ever created is Vault of glass. Crota raid was really poor and current one just as bad, you just stand in one spot and use sniper rifles

Lots of hints about stuff, i think they are staying away from the word 'raid' maybe creating something else that requires 8 player team

Whats a raid mean anyway? Mission thats longer then 10min? Something that requires massive amount of team work? could be challenge mode?

Agreed. I must've completed the VoG about 50 times, and they were all fun. I did Crota about as many times, but that was mainly as I was trying to get Black Hammer. I finished Oryx twice, and have never bothered with it since.

Edit: I did enjoy Crota solo though, that was a real challenge as a level 32, especially as they got rid of the various cheeses over time.

Nothing at all confirmed about end game yet. Pre-orders will usually be charged as they get dispatched. I know amazon do.

ask most people and they will draw a mental image of a multi faceted group challenge which requires team work in order to succeed. Apparently in the early days of destiny they invited some groups in to play vault of glass and didn't tell them anything. 10 hours later and they still hadn't finished it yet as they were still working all the mechanics out.That's what people think of when you talk about Raids.

But you're right. I'm 100 % sure that whatever their end game is, its not going to be called a raid and they are trying to do something very different.
