PS4 Alpha

I just got my code for the Destiny Alpha. Anyone else get one? I know what I'll be doing tonight.

I thought about buying a code on ebay but dunno...Let us know your thoughts on it.

Just played through the first mission, and its pretty good. The controls and gameplay feel very natural. Graphics look very good as well.

I applied for it, but looks like I won't be getting a code Ah well, I think I might be the only one but I don't really see anything particularly special about this game aside from the fact it is made by Bungie.

*awaits for the inevitable tomatoes to be thrown at my face*

EDIT: Ha. As soon as I posted this, I checked my email and there I see a code for the Beta haha. Hopefully this alpha can change my mind

Yeh got one too, not too bad so far. I'm still so hooked on Titanfall though, I can't put it down!

 

[Oberon]

I applied for it...

How do you apply for it? On the site it says for beta access you need to actually pre-order it to get a beta code.

This is the Alpha test, the beta isn't until July

Ah yes.
So looks like unless you buy an 'alpha' key on ebay (most are to expensive) its now to late.

Yeah cut off time was some time last night unfortunately

I played for about 2 hours total last night, and was really impressed. I'll be interested to see what multiplayer is like. It looks like you will have vehicles so we'll see. That usually dulls it down.

I was never a fan of Titanfalls multiplayer because it just got boring real quickly. It just seemed like I was just doing the same thing over and over. Very small weapon selection, and the titans were just meh. The bots idea was nice, but they were too easy. That game really needed a campaign mode as well.

Got my code today and installed, I have to say i really liked it! the graphics and lighting are really good. Teamed up with a few guys/girl and had a really good time we died multiple times and carried on regardless. I think i might pre-order

 

[Oberon]

Hmm,positive posts from you guys,I may have to see if I can buy a code on ebay cheap enough to try this out.

At some points, it really forces team work, which is fun if you get the right people.

*edit

Just played 3 game of multiplayer, and it was terrible. The gun you start with isn't powerful enough or something because I shoot the other player ten times, and get killed by them in two or three shots. I think there is some kind of upgrade system, but how are they going to match a person with no upgrade against people with more powerful weapons? They will definitely need to balance that better before release.

The multiplayer part uses the same weapons as you use in co-op and free roam, so unless you buy or upgrade (using them more often unlocks new traits for that weapon) then the ppl running around with hand cannons are going to easily one shot you. I think its a little to early to say whether or not its balanced but everyone has the same way of aquiring weapons so i dont think its fair to say its unbalanced with the cap at level 8.

Still loving it
