Maybe I haven't been paying attention but is there a Collector's Edition for this? I have yet to see one.
Anything else I should know?
yes.
Trying to figure out if I want this on PS4 or XBO. I see the resolution is the same, and I know that there will be some "PS4 exclusive content" which probably means cosmetic stuff that I don't care much about.
There was a rumor that Bungie magically said PS4 was the "lead platform" but that turned out to be BS.

Thanks dudes! Tough decision. Now I have to decide between playing with friends or better graphics/more features...

I am betting just resolution differences. That takes no additional development costs if the hardware can push it.
PS4 will probably have better graphics. Not resolution or frame rate, but more particles, better lighting, etc.
This. Your friends can just migrate to PS4, problem solvedOr find new PS4 friends. Problem solved.

What if their PS4 is STOLEN?
HMMMMMMM

You did have insurance though, right... ? Have you gotten a replacement yet?
Huh?! Useless insurance?! What, did you leave the house unlocked or something??!?Insurance was useless in this instance.
I'll be able to scrounge enough money to get a PS4 by the end of the week, though.

At least you'll have a PS4 in the end, but still... :-/
Are you Destiny die-hards all going PS4?
I haven't been keeping up with the threads to get a feel for GAF's intent...

So, whats with the lack of cellectors edition info.. we all know its coming.. Right?
PS4 man, the only way to fly.Are you Destiny die-hards all going PS4?

Just another reason why I'm glad I don't live in the US, I guess. Insurance in NZ isn't anywhere near as painful as how you've described it.Deductible was too high and they said they'd raise my rates if I filed a claim.
Private insurance, man. What a joke.
I'm still holding out hope that a CE is announced. I feel so dirty, buying a... urgh... "standard" version of a game ~_~So, whats with the lack of cellectors edition info.. we all know its coming.. Right?
15/10.Hello Destiny Gaf, I have some questions seeing how much excitement there is in this thread from those who played the beta. On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best, how would you rate Destiny's coop experience based on the Alpha? I love co-op games, I'm the type of player who would be up for hours trying to beat all 50 waves in Gears of War 2 and 3's Horde mode on insane difficulty, or playing Nazi Zombies on World at War, loved the challenge but also how well everything molded together, even when playing with randoms. Do you gets a sense based off the Alpha that the cooperative experience in Destiny is fantastic as well? Hearing about Raids is getting me hyped since that more up my alley, debating on whether I should buy a next gen console for Destiny (had one but had to sell it). Thanks for any opinions/experiences anyone can share, I'd appreciate it.
Destiny is probably and 8 or a 9 on the co-op fun scale for me. What I think is Destiny's best feature when it comes to its co-op is how seamless it is with the main game. I'd have to play it more to see how it measures up, for me, with Halo's co-op.Hello Destiny Gaf, I have some questions seeing how much excitement there is in this thread from those who played the beta.

I love stuff like this, makes me think back to Payday 2 when you're breaking into a guys private vault to get gold and you need someone to monitor and deactivate the security lasers while someone else is clearing out the gold.8.8/10
We just got a small taste of it in the alpha, I want to see what the whole package will be like. I'd like to see missions where each player has to do a different action for the whole fire team to reach its goal. Maybe, one guy pulls a lever, another goes through a newly opened door to hack a computer or something.

They said ask them again "next week"

Wonder if it was in reguards to their April 1st joke they did. If so... Im kinda doubting a ce.
PS4 man, the only way to fly.
I downloaded a CoD demo on PS3 to see what it would feel like playing FPS on Playstation. After playing Halo for so many years, it felt like my thumbs were being stretched uncomfortably. I'm so used to the offset sticks on 360...
Halo ancients who played the alpha - was it hard to get used to the DS4 controller?
Yup, it was for their April Fools Day joke. I hope that we hear an announcement on/just after the beta for a CE but since we're so close now to the actual release date I'm not holding my breath anymore...http://www.bungie.net/7_Bungie-Weekly-Update-03282014/en/News/News?aid=11462

The DS4 is a fucking excellent controller, and Dragonball Z-Power-Level-numbers above the DS3. You shouldn't have any issues going to the DS4 at all.I downloaded a CoD demo on PS3 to see what it would feel like playing FPS on Playstation.

The DS3 sucks compared to the DS4 for first person shooters. Analogs feel much better in terms of grip, resistance, all that jazz and the triggers are also much better.
Have really had no problem pulling off precise head shots with the DS4. The battery life on the other hand, is really terrible.

The DS4 is a billion times better for shooters than the DS3 was.
Yea I have several bones to pick with the controller.The DS3 sucks compared to the DS4 for first person shooters. Analogs feel much better in terms of grip, resistance, all that jazz and the triggers are also much better.
Have really had no problem pulling off precise head shots with the DS4. My only complaint with the controller is the atrocious battery life.
If you like the 360 controller odds are you will love the DS4. My only complaint is stick placement but I prefer Asymmetrical. Everything else is got tier.
I may as well go ahead and list my own qualms with the system as a first time PS4 owner:
[*]Don't like how flat all the buttons are. The Share and Options buttons disappear into the controller and take more pressure to use than the others. I'm sure this was deliberate, but it's annoying, especially when I'm trying to upload a screen quickly. Also feel that the edges on the face buttons are a bit too hard.
I love the 360 controller. It's still the best controller on the market, but at best I can say I tolerate the DS4. And I also tolerate the XB1 controller. Mash those two up and we might have a legit contender. DS4 dpad, buttons, stick tension, and handles mixed with Xbox One's stick placement, stick tops, triggers and battery life.
