[link=(S:\Projects\Current\Surveying\13-095 (Well No. 9 & Tank )\Office\CADD\Speegle Drawings\PDF's)]Beta details.[/link]

quote:

A beta for Bungie's upcoming shooter Destiny begins Thursday, July 17, on PlayStation platforms, and it sounds like the content on offer will be quite substantial. According to a memo reportedly sent to GameStop managers (via Reddit), the Destiny beta will include four story chapters, four competitive multiplayer maps, a cooperative Strike, and a "huge world" to explore.

Previously, Bungie said only that the Destiny beta would include a "diverse sampling of major activities" from the full game. You can guarantee yourself a place in the beta by preordering a copy of the game.

Another Reddit user located the Destiny product page on Xbox One and says the content weighs in at 12.63GB on Microsoft's console. The Destiny beta starts this week for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, before coming to Xbox 360 and Xbox One starting July 23, and ending for all platforms on July 27.

Separately, Bungie writes on its website that Destiny's beta is a genuine beta, and the company expects some things will go wrong. "The Destiny Beta is a test. Make no mistake. This isn't some circus stunt. This is science--and you're the lab rat," the developer said.

"We'd love to tell you that everything will go according to plan, but that wouldn't be any fun. That wouldn't teach us a thing," Bungie added. "Even if the Beta is working perfectly, one of the alpha-geeks in the operations center is gonna kick it to see if it still works. Fortunately, we'll be going to great lengths to keep you informed and keep you in the game."

I am tied up all week long, so if I do get on this week, it will probably be late Saturday.

Two new maps for us in the Alpha, 2 of the 4 maps in Beta are the same 2 from Alpha. But still good.

Cannot fricking wait though, game is the GOAT.

Also never noticed the beta is only 4 days long on Xbone? That's shitty, PS4 deal/lead platform or not.

I wish I knew what everyone looked like so I could size them up IRL.

I imagine everyone except for maybe a few here on the GB as scrawny nerds.

Scrawny? No, but I'm not exactly intimidating either

Not you specifically ...I actually can't picture you.

I'm assuming most people wouldn't picture me as 6'5" 230 lb.

ETA:

I know KK works out a lot, so I am assuming he might be jacked.

I used to be in great shape, then I met my wife. As long as I stay a 36 waist I'm fine, no matter how tight it may get

Again, has anyone preordered through PSN itself?

I still haven't received an email with a code anywhere. I signed up on Bungie to see if it would let me see it there and nothing.

Found this little blurb, thank the lord, I was getting antsy.

quote:

Bungie also specified that those that pre-ordered on PSN will instead receive a mail or a PSN message on July 17th explaining exactly how the participation to the beta will work.

Yeah my buddy preordered through the store said it'll just be active tomorrow when it kicks off automatically.

Will get a message to directly download it on ps4.
