I don't know what that means, but I like it.
Was really hoping to get at least another afternoon of play in. This game has me hooked already

My review:

-Graphics are very nice on PS4.
-Multi-player was limited to one match type and 2 zones but was typical space shooter multi-player.

-Its a MMO. You level up and and upgrade your weapons/armour. You will need to grind zones for better gear/weapons. If SWTOR and Halo had a baby together, this would be it.

-The social environment for a MMO was very lacking (at least on PS4). You kinda need a group of friends already and definitely need a mic. MMOs tend to thrive on social interaction, this was very limited so far.

I disagree. When I played Devils Lair it matched me up with two others that I played through the entire "level" with. I think that's pretty awesome how seemlessly they made "multiplayer" and "single player" mesh together.

I haven't even wanted to play just the normal multiplayer because of that.

Ahh maybe it is. Some posters said they had keys and UH tweeted that it might be extended. I was hoping it was.

That tweet is cryptic but I bet they either are testing the server load while reducing servers to see how much stress they can handle or they are planning some crazy public event that'll happen right before they end access like unleashing tons of enemies to destroy the entire world or something.

Either way Bungie already has established themselves as Tier 1 game developers again with this alpha mind you, and Halo will soon be nothing more than a footnote in the console FPS history books.

All that is my opinion but that alpha was rediculously polished, in surprised it was called an alpha bc it was really Beta phase 1.

Over on Twitter, Bungie announced the extension of the Destiny first-look alpha, which started Thursday and was supposed to end Sunday. "Yup. Alpha still works," Bungie tweeted. "Now, we're gonna test it in expert mode. If you're still playing, pardon our dust. This is for the beta!"

I have a code but if I give it up we are playing some damn story mode together. Friend request me. My ps name is "xthehellraiserx"


There was about 40-50'players just now with me at once at the tower. And keeps saying contacting destiny servers. It was pretty cool though to see that many people in one spot
