Do we know when they are going to open up the social space?

Half an hour I believe.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

So I complained the first day about a few things. Obviously.

It was different and after playing 1500 hours of D1 every change feels drastic.

However after about 15-20 hour of this beta, mostly crucible.

I have to say It's going to be a horrible 45 days or whatever it is until launch. I really really love the new control.

In bungie I trust.

Edit: sorry I have a bad headache and the formatting of my post is all weird.

Eyes up guardian see you on the farm

There is zero economy in the beta, what exactly is the point in playing at this social space in the beta?

To see it and fuck around with the football.

Just to see it? And dance your pants off.

 

[everyer]

I met only 2 players when playing the campaign mode. Seriosuly?
Also how could I rewatch the CGI intro? I skipped it be error and there is no way to rewatch it even if I make a new player. I tried to find the saved files on the PS4 system in order to delete them but there are none.
I really hate when you can't rewatch an intro for a game even if you restart it like this one and Marvel Heroes Omega.

it is beta only， you can play again and again with your friends when it release

 

[The Hobo]

Can you only play through Homecoming once per character?

 

[The Jazz Cabbage Master]

Can you only play through Homecoming once per character?

Yep. Just delete a character and restart to play it again.

Correction: futbol

But yes, pretty much lol

 

[onimushroom]

Tried Control for the third time during this beta to pass time before the social space opens up. It's still not fun for me, might as well call it Teamshoot (at least on that map with those weapons and with those cooldowns).
I wish the final game would have all the "forced teamwork" and esports PvP stuff just in the Competitive playlist and that Quickplay would be the old fun D1 style PvP I loved to sink hours into (casually and solo). I doubt that will happen, though...

 

[The Hobo]

Yep. Just delete a character and restart to play it again.

I've deleted characters to re-play it a few times already. I was just hoping to be able to use some of the weapons I got from Crucible in it. Guess I can't.

 

[Mathrin]

Gotta say, after playing the opening story missions, the game is very very pretty but... it just didn't seem any different to D1. Just didn't really seem like a massive improvement. Might give it another go as another class in case Warlock was just rubbish but...not massively drawn in, I must admit :/

I get why bungie is doing it, just don't see what they are doing to attract players to bother.

 

[The Hobo]

I think curiosity is all the attraction players need.

you've been to it already?

 

[DeviantBoi]

Yep. Just delete a character and restart to play it again.

No need to delete. You get three character slots.

 

[Daigoro]

anyone know if they are handing out any emblems or anything for participating in the beta?

 

[The Jazz Cabbage Master]

5 minutes until next gen soccer

 

[purg3]

yeah there will be an emblem unlock when the game comes out.

 

[jviggy43]

you've been to it already?

They've already shown it off.

 

[2blackcats]

Do we get to the social space from the launcher thing?

 

[Gudji]

Do we know when they are going to open up the social space?

In 4 minutes? I think.

 

[purg3]

They've already shown it off.

I'm aware. Watching a video and exploring it myself are two different things.

 

[Marvel]

Looks more fun than RL.

 

[jviggy43]

When it comes to social spaces in this game, not really.

 

[2blackcats]

yeah there will be an emblem unlock when the game comes out.

I wish they told you where you got emblems from. I'm always deleting them not knowing if it's a rare one or not.

 

[purg3]

Okay, thanks for the info. I'll just delete the beta now.

 

[Gudji]

Shouldn't matter. If it works like in D1 once you unlock it you can delete it.

 

[MythicReclaimer]

Do we get to the social space from the launcher thing?

I'm guessing maybe the pre-order icon they added was a place-holder considering it says "Social" but we'll see in a few minutes.

Edit: Nope, new icon to the right of the pre-order one.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

The farm social club starts now right? How to get access to it?

 

[The Jazz Cabbage Master]

Alrighty farm where you at lol

 

[purg3]

logged out and back in and it's up on the director now

 

[charpunk]

It’s up. Might have to log out for it to show on the director.

 

[onimushroom]

Log out & in to see the farm. I'm in the farm... Alone, lol.

 

[2blackcats]

Heading to the farm now.

 

[Marvel]

Chickens here I come.

 

[Turkoop]

Yessss

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

The game doesn't support HDR?

 

[V1ctIm]

Can't effing believe we move into a new apartment today and of course the Comcast service they said was working is NOT WORKING. No farm for me and I am so incredibly irritated. ((

 

[Santiako]

So many people!

 

[Bsigg12]

So this is a place.

 

[MythicReclaimer]

Looks like you may be able to enter the EDZ directly from The Farm in the full game.

 

[Lys Skygge]

No NPCs? I know it's just a beta, but c'mon.

 

[void666]

I know it's just to test the capacity of the servers. But i was expecting something cool. There's nothing to do or see.

 

[Natiko]

Doesn't seem to work for me. I select it then it kicks me back to a character select screen. Once I repick my character it loads in with 0 light level and if I launch the farm it acts like it's working until it errors out. Then it loops like that. Oh well lol

 

[Sullichin]

Well that's something. Back to Crucible


Lol, imagine the farm being part of a beta for an unestablished game. of course people are interested to check it out here but If I didn't know about Destiny I'd be like uh... Ok.

 

[catspit]

No NPCs? I know it's just a beta, but c'mon.

lol. no doubt.
