RIPPA Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Okay - I am seeing that the XBone download size is almost 13 gigs Even in the 360 one is half that size - I am fairly sure it won't fit on my HD God bless you HD from saving me from myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Just put in my pre-order for the White PS4/Destiny Bundle. Going to be a pain in the ass trying to get into multi-player with you folks, being about 6-7 hours ahead of most of you, but I shall effort to do so anyway.

I hope it will done when i get home. I would recommend just getting a cheap 8 GB flash drive for under $10 to put Xbox files on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can do up to 32 Gigs I think. I would just take a 16 Gig stick and have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know you want to kill Fallen with us and fly to the moon in your jumpship. The Beta ends on the 27th so DO IT NOW~! And try to be online after 2PM PST on the 26th (Saturday) to earn the special emblem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I don't know how much I would get to play it since I doubt it would finish downloading before I could to bed tonight and this weekend is a totally crapshoot I will figure it out when I get home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yeah, I've got new house stuff to take care of tomorrow so I don't know if I will be able to get online in time for the scale test @ 2PM PDT / 5PM EDT. I may get some trigger time in on Sunday just in time for the Beta to close. Goodbye, free emblem, but I am comforted by knowing that I've got my priorities straight.

The Man Known as Dan Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I am loving the game, though I am just awful on the Crucible so far. I think it might be my hatred for all things called Crucible in video games. Also, I was under leveled, and the guns I like (Scout Rifles) are shit in multiplayer. Story mode is awesome. Legitimately great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 FYI You cant play the beta with it being on an external drive. I have to move more stuff from my HD to the thumb drive in order to move Destiny to my HD so i can play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Now I remember why I didn't like Halo and don't even really particularly care for Borderlands 2: I cannot get used to first-person shooters. I've never liked that perspective. I don't know why. Shooters where I can actually see my guy like GTA don't bother me, but I just don't dig the first-person perspective.

odessasteps Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 After the first level, i can predict hours of JT yelling at me to stay in cover and pick your spots to attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to embrace the bullet stopping power of metal, concrete, and other solid substances.. Dan also believes he is bullet proof. The Fallen in Old Russia proved otherwise. Good thing I have had lots of practice reviving him from Mass Effect 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misanthrope304 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Nobody seems to love the Titan except me.... I am all about the Titan. So far I like the game a lot. Was having a lot of server crashes earlier during the beta though. The beta gives you a good chunk of story missions and some sampling of the competitive multiplayer. The last story mission you can play requires a PlayStation Plus account and the ability to join a fireteam. Fighting the Devil Walker was insane. Fucking thing just wouldn't go down. Took like an hour to chip away at its armor and beat it. And then the orb boss was freaking easy as pie in comparison. Shoot at the legs, after a blow up a leg, it will drop down and expose the brain, shoot the brain with a Sniper Rifle...repeatedly (or your special if you are brave/stupid/don't mind dying and waiting 30 seconds to respawn)..

misanthrope304 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Also, when I got up today, I did a quick run-through to get to the tower with my Titan I'm probably going to hit Devil's Lair once or twice tonight in my Hunter and get that last piece of level 8 uncommon armor (chest) that I need to get my max armor rating up a few more points, now that I picked up the level 8 auto rifle that deals 57 damage. After I get that leveled a little more, I'll be switching over to my tank to get it up to snuff for the crucible. The warlock class has a pretty cool super/special. Love the MG, wish I could run that as my primary, but alas it is not meant to be. I haven't played much with the pulse rifles, even though I have two pieces of armor dedicated to reloading them faster, I may try that in the crucible tomorrow if I can get it leveled (lvl8 doing 57 damage uncommon pulse). I am starting to see that this game is going to consume me this fall and winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Have they said if the characters you create in the beta will be available to port over in the real game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misanthrope304 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I've been doing some digging over at the bungie.net forums...and holy fuckballs @ the story mode of this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misanthrope304 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) Have they said if the characters you create in the beta will be available to port over in the real game? As of right now, from what I've seen/read/heard the characters you create will NOT port over to the full game on 9/9/14*. *IF they don't push back the release, but I'd rather them push it back and it be as epic as the nugget we're being shown as opposed to it being a broken piece of shit *glares at call of duty* Edited July 25, 2014 by misanthrope304 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might be my hatred for all things called Crucible in video games. Also, I was under leveled, and the guns I like (Scout Rifles) are shit in multiplayer. Story mode is awesome. Legitimately great. You will get better, I promise. Especially after you use that warlock special and wipe out 3-4 of the opposition at once. Scout rifle will be good at mid-long range engagements, you'll have to get headshots though until you get a ridiculously overpowered one. To an extent though, it says going into Crucible that it's a level playing field. However, Iron Banner is not. You will need to use the best shit you can get your hands on for that if you play it. Farm the fuck out of Devil's lair, I hear you are supposed to get 2 uncommon engrams each time, but I haven't paid close enough attention to verify this personally. You can pick up shit doing the explore mission as well. Then there's this: *edit* I'm going to attempt to stop spamming the thread now lol. Trying to share knowledge to help everyone along. I eagerly await the DVDR fire team, playing what is basically domination (domination is my shit in FPS). Also, create a bungie.net account or link your PSN/XBL account, and add me/follow me, I will reciprocate (misanthrope304) Edited July 25, 2014 by misanthrope304 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Since it turns out I have 8 gigs free - I am attempting to download the beta now. I will just delete it after Sunday (assuming it downloads at all). Especially if nothing will transfer over from said Beta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misanthrope304 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Clan is up and running now. Yes it's a beta, and the clan is in beta mode as well. Trying to figure it out. I can't send invites to most of you since there are no bungie.net accounts created that I see on my friends list for the 360. You can search for the clan on bungie.net with "DVDR" I think I can use more letters, but I'm going for the K.I.S.S. method right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Yup - no clue what I was doing. There were at least 5 of us on in the 360 Beta - I bounced because I promised my son I would play Smash Brothers but at least I got to the Tower 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misanthrope304 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I like how when you go to the tower, it shows you in the 3rd person mode. I dont like that you're not wearing the helmet, cuz my hunter is ugly as sin. Also you can dance, point, waive, and sit using the directional pad.
