Also, I don't like that I don't get a choice on what to upgrade. Each level up has coincided with a specific upgrade. I can't focus on grenades or special ability or jumping.
Not the case, each level up is based on xp from the game unlocking in order from left to right except things that can get specific xp such as grenades, a ton of grenade kills unlocks the next grenade upgrade, they have 3 total you have to choose which grenade you like best once all are unlocked.
The other stuff goes in order from xp but you have to choose which suits you best you can only choose one for the attribute upgrades they don't stack like the jump upgrades.
You could have the hunter class maxed out for armor and have no recovery or agility, or max out something else of those or balance them all, etc. Then you have your actual armor pieces, guns, grenades, your special and secondary, heavy weapon, etc. Then you have crafting in the full game too.

This is what I don't like.
When I level up, I should have the option to upgrade any one of the categories (left to right) and focus on it. If I don't care about jumping and want to upgrade strength or speed/agility, I should not have to upgrade to first jump before I can do so. Though, I don't understand how the jump xp and grenades xp upgrades work, as I was pretty much jumping and killing things with only grenades last night, and barely leveled them up at all.
ETA: Also, does anybody have any insight into the subclasses?

Ehhh I feel that would unbalance things too much. Level 5 players shouldn't be able to use the level 8 upgrade to dramatically increase all attributes. Needs to be incentive to level up and get better stuff instead of having it spoon fed to you at level 3 so easily. Especially since you level up so fast early on.

That is fine, and can be done. Borderlands has it pretty much perfect. You can pick and choose where you want to go, but you have to be a certain level to use some abilities. No reason Destiny's can't be in that style.

They may have sped it up for the beta.

Not a Borderlands fan so can't speak on that part but it doesn't have PvP so that's a little different compared to Destiny with a Halo type core PvP experience.

I don't believe they did. They said a few weeks ago the full game would take about an hour to unlock multiplayer, which is what the Beta takes.

Hate to agree with you but your right. Without PvP it isn't the same comparison.

Not saying it is the same, but I honestly fail to see how that changes this. Would actually make things better so that you aren't constantly playing similar players.
Borderlands system really would work just fine in this game.
Irrelevant though. I'm more curious about the subclasses. If I have to level up every subclass to be able to use it, that ill be a big pain in the arse.

I'm just concerned about the amount of non PvP content. I think there will be plenty but just something I'm looking out for.

Im tired of doing all this bull shite. I just want to play PvP

Enjoy the story mang....
Its pretty good. I love the lore behind this game. Reminds me a lot of Halo. Another reason you should be OK with it. Also you will get the necessary weapons/armor.

So far I would say it's stronger on atmosphere than it is story itself. We only have a small slice though.

Story is bad. The character doesn't even talk.

Just doesn't make much of a story. I'm enjoying the beta.
Never played half - life.

I agree that it isn't story strong through the beta. It isn't because of the silent character though.

He has said a few words. Not many, but a few.

The PvP feels nothing like Halo.
I've been pretty underwhelmed so far, but that might be because how much I hyped this game up in my head.
It's a game that does a ton of things well, but nothing great.
Hopefully it grows on me a bit more today.
