I wouldn't think so, but just to be safe, you could download the US version during some downtime and play that. Keys are gonna be flying around like passenger pigeons up in heeyah

thanks, ya i have a beta code already and put it in to bungie.net just didnt want to wait around to DL it and miss some playing time. But if i get the dl code early enough before 1pm (my time tom) then ill probably just dl that instead. Just wasnt sure when exactly the codes would be sent out, so figured id do it the way i did so i dont miss time playing, bc im going away for the weekend for a bachelor party so im missing fri,sat,sun of playing and mon/tues its down, so im pretty bummed about that :(

I preordered on PSN. Where do I go to download the beta, and at what time? I week dump hours into it the next couple days. PEACE.
 
Got a code! Thank you Michael Huber of Gametrailers!

Guys, are we gonna be able to redeem and download our beta code from PC/PS store or do we have to download it from the PS4?

I think you have to take it to gamestop and they will give you a demo disc. Make sure to get there as early as possible the lines are long already.

It should be available at 10am PDT through PSN, you should see it in your Download List already (either on the console or the SEN website) but Destiny shows as "Waiting". You won't get a download code or anything if you preordered digitally through PSN, everyone else will get codes emailed to them starting at the same 10am time.

EDIT: wait no, the actual game shows already in the download list as "waiting" for the September release. The beta will show up tomorrow at the appropriate time.

Thanks calder. The op wasn't completely clear. PEACE.

Does anyone remember the Halo Reach beta? A lot of people got in early by abusing some MS employee thing.
I got in early and got all my friends in early too.

Haha, back before my account got approved here, I was lurking HaloGAF and was able to catch that Gamestop manager thing to snag an early code for myself and a friend. We were both scrambling to make new accounts to get more codes for the rest of our group when the program got shut down.

Fun times! (And the fact that that was nearly 5 years ago is seriously messing with my head.)


That's for PS4, as far as we know PS3 won't require + for anything.
 
Right but you redeem the code (that you ought to have received after preordering it) on their website, then tomorrow those that redeemed it will be given a download code for the beta.

If he pre-ordered digitally on PSN then you won't get a code. It will automatically pop in your library when Sony enables it before the beat begins.

Sweet! Thank you :)



Aren't those screens from the PS4 version? Makes sense it would require plus as PS4 requires plus for any online game, usually. PS3 doesn't.

I was misunderstanding. My apologies.
 
My friend (from GAF) and I are gonna nerd it up and set up two tvs in his living room so we can play together most of the weekend, and we can still be 'social'!

Now all we need is the game to be actually playable tomorrow. Which I'm not holding my breath.

The only kind of social to be really, unless you're also using a headset in-game. Then you're being even more "social" :D

Where can you see where your code is on the website? I know they are not up yet, but I can't even find the page it is supposed to be on.
