I will say the loading / zoning times are pretty epic. I figure it has to be a server load and allocation queue because there is no way in hell The Tower needs that long to load from a local resources standpoint

I wonder what portion beta will be...
How Bungie is using the Destiny alpha to polish its sci-fi epic - PlayStation.Blog.Europe

Whilst the alpha was the first opportunity for a lot of players to get into Destiny early, it won?t be your only chance before launch, ?The beta test later in the year will contain different content ? there will be a difference but what?s key is that every bit of information we?re gathering and the tweaks and adjustments we?re making will carry through to the Beta test?.

so i guess at least itll be different dunno what. i think alpha was also level 4-8, you just got boosted auto to 4 when you started so we still haven't seen the newbie intro stuff

servers are still up

servers come down at 6pm, we're doing some "disruptive" tests today.

Stats play a part in how fast you move. Hunters have a naturally high agility while titans agility is lower. Gear upgrades in the full game.

I just turned on my ps3 so my kids could watch Netflix and noticed that there was a big destiny pre-order/beta sign-up. then I saw that it mentioned something about e3. maybe i'm just putting 2 and 2 together and getting 18, but those alpha codes that were going around... were they just for ps4 or was it ps3 as well? I've been ignoring them because I don't have a ps4 yet but i'm gonna be all buggered if I missed it.

It's a bot, what are people expecting energy from it for.
Well the article covers it well in that regard - as a bot it doesn't HAVE to be wooden, but it can be easily explained away.

It doesn't bother me personally - as it's a bot - although it is a sad use of his incredible acting chops to do that. I could deliver lines woodenly for a fraction of what they paid him I'm sure.

Is the beta on July 17th only for Ps4 as well? Or they expand it to Ps3?

Ah interesting - guess the earlier statements were regarding the alpha.

I was playing the alpha this past weekend when a non-gamer buddy came over and the first substantial somment he made while watching the game was that the voice was terrible. I suggested that it was meant to be an AI to which he countered that there are lines in the script that clearly show emotion but that the delivery is off.
