Title: Destiny Beta
Post by: Jmac on July 10, 2014, 07:23:11 PM
Hey guys, starting the 17th, the Destiny beta will begin. I'll receive two extra PS4 codes and three for PS3/360/Xbone, so if you're interested, let me know! These are on a first come, first serve basis, and once I lock into a console, I can't get codes for the other two, so act fast! ^_^

EDIT:
PS4 Codes Remaining: 0
360 Codes Remaining: 0

Yeah, I believe the PC beta will be held farther in the future.

Alright, I can't actually access the download codes until the 17th, but I'll make sure to PM it to you as soon as it's available!

You sure can! The 360/Xbone beta starts a week after the PS3/PS4, so I'll have them starting the 23rd!


Side Note:
Now that someone's chosen 360, the other two codes will be for the 360 as well, so anyone wanting a PS3/Xbone code is unfortunately out of luck. Hopefully this doesn't inconvenience anyone!

Alright, I've got you on my list!

The final 360 code will be going to Buffi because we spoke about it in game a while back, so the only code remaining is for PS4!

@Meiun and Tox: I have PM'ed the codes to you. If for some strange reason the message didn't go through, let me know and I'll resend it. Also, I would've sent them earlier, but I'm at work, so my apologies.

@Bread, Tank, and Buffi: Your codes will be released on the 23rd, at which point I will PM them to you guys. I haven't forgotten about you! :D

Was wondering if you guys could tell me what you think of it so far if you've been playing it.

I think it's pretty great. The gameplay is very reminiscent of Halo and Borderlands. Everything feels very fluid and responsive as far as movement skills go. The classes all play rather similarly to one another at first, although the later skills give nice, distinct abilities which are very flashy and exciting. The one raid that the game gives you access to is my favorite part of the game, and I hope that they add a whole lot more into the final game.

My only complaints are that the story is a little vague, the skill trees are rather linear, and the multiplayer VS mode is quite unbalanced at the moment. It is a beta, so I realize this all is going to change (I'd hope so at least), but those are my thoughts on it so far.

For a very PC-esque game, I think it's a shame they're only releasing it solely on console..hopefully they have mouse support at least!

The game looks pretty cool, but it upsets me that it is only 30 FPS. A 60 FPS version would be amazing. As Logan said, a PC version would also be very nice. I've only played it for less than an hour, but it is pretty similar to what I would expect out of a Halo title. I probably won't buy it right away, maybe at some point when it gets cheaper

@Bread, Buffi, and Tank: I have sent out the 360 codes via PM, please let me know if you didn't receive it. Enjoy the beta!

Sorry for the double post, but I just wanted to let you guys know that the beta has been opened up for everyone. The beta ends tomorrow night, so act fast if you wanna check it out!  :)

If you play during 2pm and 6pm PDT time tomorrow you get an exclusive emblem when the game is released. Maybe not the best 'reward' but it is free so can't really complain :P
