That was pretty good. My roommate did this and did not get his account pummeled, so I can imagine what kind of special that Reddit dude was.

If this was purchased on PSN should I just expect the download to start eventually? I haven't received a key, but after looking around a bit it looks like it shouldn't be necessary if you bought it off PSN or XBL? Not sure.

The older beta was a different sky, so for PSN is like a different game. It probably should show somewhere in one of the many "you can download this poo poo" in PSN admin panels. Gonna check this now... *Searching* It shows has a separate product in the shopw https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/search/q=destiny%202%20beta I have "bought" it and added to my download queue. It says 324 MB. Edit: Mr Glum says the truth Edit: Downloading. Shows a first download of 677 MB, and a larger one of 12 GB. So is kind of a 13 GB download. Edit: Guys, I am downloading the beta! https://twitter.com/Teiman/status/885571047596208129 This is what happends if you try to launch it: https://twitter.com/Teiman/status/885571795549646849 Tei fucked around with this message at 19:50 on Jul 13, 2017 |

I just found it by searching in the PSN Store. "Destiny 2" and "Destiny 2 - Beta" should show up as a result, when you hit that page you can download it from there.

According to the TWAB all 6 subclasses that have shown up so far will be available in the beta. Top skill path only, though. This makes me thing they might be holding back the other 3.

PathAsc posted:Goddamn those videos are edited like poo poo. I'd love to see some unedited gameplay but it's pretty clear Bungie wouldn't allow them to show deaths for some reason. They also blur out the bottom of the screen for a little bit at one point, and every time the titan uses his super they zoom the entire video in to cut out the edges instead of just blurring whatever they didn't want you to see. Pretty weird.

What purpose does editing out the deaths serve though?

Yeah it definitely looks like the videos are editing to hide things. Gun names perhsps. Among other things. Shoulder charge is a 2 hit kill now, you need to land it and a follow up punch. That Omolon pulse and auto looked like fun. Shotguns are still going to be cancer. I hope power ammo is on a long timer. Voidwall nades are gay. And the map looked good. I dont care its reused. A bit big for 4v4 though

What's going on with kill rewards? In this part the kill feed says a teammate made the kill, but the kill reward dialogue pops up on screen for the player. Has it gone all OverWatch, or is there a system that awards the kill to whoever did most of the killing?

If you consider dumping 40 rounds into a wall "assisting."

At the reveal event I am pretty sure the endgame screen used "defeated" enemies which included both kills and assists. It probably works the same in game. I haven't played overwatch so I am not sure how it works compared to that. Makes sense with them going after casuals, much easier to have a "1.0 K/D+".

Wonder if it's gonna be like the original where you get the 2nd subclass at level 15 or if there'll be a ttk type quest or both.

With Zavala, Cayde-6, and Ikora all going to their own moons/worlds there has got to be some class specific quests.

"It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for: The Beta is upon us. No more long lines at events. Finally, anyone who wants to play Destiny 2 will. You’ll get to bash enemies with your Sentinel’s Shield, flip through the air while wielding your Arcstrider’s staff, or rain fire from above with your Dawnblade. You’ve read first impressions and watched videos, but this will be your first true taste of what it feels like to be a Guardian in a new world. In addition to the new hotness, there will be some familiar (but updated) subclasses for you to play as well. The Beta will include Striker, Gunslinger, and Voidwalker with all of their Grenades, Melees and the top path of their abilities unlocked. The bottom paths will be saved for you to experience in the full game." Hmm....

So is the PC version a port or no? I got a EA key but I'm on vacation from the 18th - 24th. Might just save it for PC unless it's an unoptimized cluster gently caress.
