I figured that Bungie would lock the raid until about a week or so after, so I wasn't surprised when I read that is what they were doing. I think it's a good idea, personally. Let the dust settle and then a week later, the real challenges begin.

those legacy emblems are cool i guess but not enough for me to want to fight their terrible account linking system

What are these emblem codes people are mentioning?

And what do you guys recommend: retail or digital? I was planning on going digital but after reading some of the threads about all the PSN outages/not being able to play online with digitally purchased titles/etc.. I became a bit wary of it.

I mean, I don't have any insider info or anything, but it fits the pattern of how a few other things have worked. If it was connected specifically to what platform things were done on, no-one on PlayStation would be able to get the one for playing 4 Bungie games.

Yeah, I was active on bnet with my 4 year hotmail email linked to my xbox gamertag you see.

Control+F "clan"

:'(
Click to expand...

This might be my biggest concern atm as my friends list is small, so I really hope that the clan system is golden(with some easy group setup options etc) when the game goes live. I know that most would not consider this a mmo, but really hope they have some sort of clan chat option available eventually as well. It saddens me that we know next to nothing, unless I missed a lot of stuff, about how clans will work.

Looks like they got slapped. It was a great ad
Click to expand...

Except that's the problem right there. They even explicitly said they weren't allowed to run ads, despite the fact that this basically was one.

Also, "Destiny" is already (and has been for some time) a trademarked name for fragrances. So...there's that.

I know I only speak for myself but I don't consider gear as spoilers. How will I know what to shoot for if I don't know what's out there? I prefer to know all the gear, where to find it, etc. ahead of time
Click to expand...

For me personally, I'd like to discover most of it and keep it a surprise. I'd research gear if I really wanted it though.

I read somewhere that our characters and save data are stored through their servers. Is this true?

I ask because this is my situation:
I have a PS3 in my home town, and my friend has a PS3 in my college town. I travel between both these towns every other week or so.

The question is, would I be able to take my physical copy of Destiny from one PS3 to the other and continue where I left off with my progress saved? (I sign in my psn on both consoles)

As long as you sign in with your PSN account, you should be golden. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, people.

Is this their first confirmation of modifiers? Skulls were my favorite gameplay mechanic of Halo so I'm glad they're somewhat returning. Wish we had control over them, though.

Modifiers were in the UI in the beta when selecting mission difficulties, I just don't think any were used.

I just caught the bit about the free last-gen to current-gen upgrade. Very cool. I'm frankly shocked that Activision is willing to go along with it.

With all the negative Destiny threads, you would think that someone would make one about this huge positive, no? ;)

Sorry if this has already been answered, but if you preorder the game on PSN for PS3, can you download the PS4 version right away ?
Click to expand...

Preliminary answer here, though I would still like Sony/Bungie confirmation:

It doesnt appear to be working at the moment, pre-ordered the PS3 Digitial Guardian edition, but all versions of Destiny for the PS4, whether through the website or via the PS4 only offer the normal purchase options

I called Sony support and they said you can't download it for your ps4 until the actual launch time, or it will charge you also for the ps4 version.
Click to expand...

So far it looks like you cannot preload on PS4 with this deal and it won't be available until actual launch. :(

Whatever account you want to unlink you have to link either a google or a facebook account I just made facebook accounts because its easier. Once you link that log out then log back in with your facebook or goggle account you just linked and unlink your psn or xbox. Then log out again and log in your OG MAIN account and link what you will. I think I know why it was fucking me over was because I have auto loggin and I ended up linking my xbox account to my psn lol Thats why I had to make two facebook accounts, good thing I have like a million emails lol
