Man, I wish I had jumped in to the Crucible a lot sooner than the last few hours of the Alpha as it was a ton of a fun.
The first match on Earth I did terrible at which didn't help it being tight quarters and I'm running around with an ACOG scope on my AR. I could never really get into the Halo multiplayer despite trying with every entry but when our ships started panning around Earth and then all of a sudden rocketing into Hyperdrive to the next map and the Moon...man, that was fucking amazing for me and I did pretty decent too.
I had some spectacular and memorable moments during those rounds on the Moon map and now I'll be making sure to jump in the Crucible immediately for the beta.

This really makes me want a photo mode in the full game.Bonus Picture
This is a very sad day for me to learn of the end of the Alpha during work hours. I look forward to band up and go on an adventure with the GAF Fireteam again come BETA

I won't but I'll be doing beta probably on my Xbox One. I figure I've done two tests of it on PS4 and I want to see how the xbone version compares before launch. Course if I were somehow lucky to get another code for PS4 then I might play both just so I could compare the two. I think it would be interesting to do that because I know everyone will want to compare them.
I'll be trying the beta on 360 probably to compare/get a feel for it

When I was doing Strike for the first time and saw percentages at the difficulty selection screen, I thought those were stat modifiers (like -30% to your shotgun dmg at Legendary). But yesterday I played another Strike with a maxed character and noticed that all those "modifiers" were green +30% numbers.
So I guess that it's actually some kind of gear checker interface, and it was telling me that I'm a bit overgeared for Brave difficulty.
I like this implementation.

I always thought that post-apocalypse setting works way better when it's build on contrast of calm sunny weather and dead rusted remains of civilization that will never be alive again.
So true. The first knife in a game that I feel have some weight to it if there's such a thing. Plus you knew when that mofo hit. That sound...sooo good.
Edit: ahh a fellow guardian above gets it.
Indeed.
Yeah it has that nice arc to it's trajectory like it weighs 5 lbs.
There are so many Destiny threads I don't know where to ask this, do we know if the PS3 and PS4 versions can play together when it releases?

Yup. Should be interesting to see how the game actually flows unlike being plopped in at 3 almost 4.

People who have never played a Bungie game before should be in for a nice treat with Destiny.

So the beta will be story content, and no progress will carry to the full release? In that case I think I'll forego the beta and save myself for the retail release.
I guess I could just jump straight into the MP for the beta, and not touch the campaign.
This was my intention, but now several of my friends pre-ordered and will have beta access so I'll
willingly
Great info! I was just about to ask that myself!

Not a mod, just a bot.
Great thread, but now that the alpha is closed, let's move over to the Withdrawal thread at http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=839018
