PS4 beta packs are up in Europe.
These are definitely account tied entitlements. The only download you get is the game client.To those that purchase a Founder's Pack, can you please check whether the content is locked to the PSN account used to make the purchase, i.e., Helldivers and Street Fighter V. If other PSN accounts can access the purchased content without purchasing it themselves, I'm going to buy a Founder's Pack from the U.S store, as the closed beta is unavailable in Australia.
These are definitely account tied entitlements. The only download you get is the game client.
I haven't downloaded the client yet, though. If these entitlements can't be shared between local accounts, that means either local coop will rely on temp accounts to share unlocks, or each player will have their own account-tied unlocks.
The EU client is 16.3GB.Man I wish the NA packs were up.
Has the client size been posted?
Chances look slim, but the best way to be sure is for someone to give it a try. It's still downloading here (and it's 1am) but if you don't get a confirmation by tomorrow night, I'll try playing it from my US account to see if it works (I bought the pack from my main EU account).So given you only download the game client and not the actual purchased content license/entitlement, it's safe to assume if I purchase a Founder's Pack on the US store, I won't be able to use it on my Aus PSN account?
They mentioned in the stream that local co-op requires both players to have a PSN account.
The EU client is 16.3GB.

When I play a lilttle on PC I only used CPT. America.
Sucks he is locked to the highest priced pack
He's not; you can buy him via the in-game G store. However, you still need to buy a Founder's Pack for entry into the closed beta.
How much is a character per G? Is it worth buying the cheapest founder's pack and then just purchasing additional G to get a character?

As for every F2P I ever played, I plan on buying absolutely nothing with real money. No closed beta for me ^^
It's a complaint.
I'm not sure it's a legitimate one.
People spent money to buy characters and costumes in order to use them in a game on the PC. I'm assuming they were able to use them on the PC. I'm not aware of any promises to the player base that said, "Hey if we ever start the game on another platform, all of the things you bought is transferrable."
They might have...I don't follow it that closely aside from playing the game on my PC.
As much as it is possible they are not transferring the account data across to consoles out of greed, it's altogether possible that it is due to another reason or a number of reasons that would make it not worth the time needed to figure it out.
I honestly don't know but I suspect the game wasn't made for consoles so as to transfer a number of players from PC to console.
The game was developed to bring in more players. The ones that do not or cannot play the game on PC.
Gazillion doesn't owe you anything other than what you paid for on the platform it was intended to be played on.
Is there a group of Destiny players that are angry over not being able to transfer their emotes and ornaments they bought on their Xbox Ones over to their accounts that are on the PS4?
I really...really don't understand what people are upset about.
New game.
New platform.
New accounts.
All the Founder's Packs are up on the UK PS Store.
X-Men and Avengers are £49.99 a piece, Guardians is £29.99, Deadpool and Spider-Man are £14.99, and War Machine is a Plus exclusive at £13.99.
Deliberating between the three cheaper options. Any pointers from people experienced with the PC version?
Is Rogue not playable in this version?

You can't go wrong with Deadpool or Spider-Man to be honest. Both are just fun characters overall and great for first timers. Deadpool has fantastic animations and dialogue though, that keep him interesting even after hundreds of hours of gameplay. Both characters have a huge library of costumes to choose from on the PC version, that is bound to come to the console version overtime if that interests you as well.
I could see her being extra difficult to bring to consoles.
This is the only list I could find; it's fairly outdated, but I can't login at the moment to confirm the G prices.
It costs $4.99 for 500 Gs. The cheapest Founder's Pack comes with 500 Gs as well.
I do think it's worth buying either the Deadpool, Spider-Man or War Machine Founder's Packs and then an additional character, especially so you can jump straight into the open beta with your favourite. Though keep in mind you can also purchase additional characters with in game currency.
So for people who aren't paying for characters but want to just play this for free, how does that work?
Do you start off with one particular hero? Or is buying a character required to actually play outside of the beta?

Booooo! No Taskmaster right off the bat? Hopefully Moon Knight will have his Mr. Knight costume, at least.
Thanks.
Kinda want Jean only with some costumes. Not sure. Maybe Storm as well eventually.
Why?
I like the way you think.
(Though personally I'm more hoping for his Marvel Now costume.)
And yes, Moon Knight is literally the only reason I care about this game. I mean I'll definitely play some of my other favorites like Blade and Ghost Rider, but if Moon Knight weren't in I probably wouldn't bother with it.
So has it been confirmed that PC purchases don't transfer over? Kind of hurts my chances of buying in here. Seems like a dumb move.
