You can now select your platform of choice for the Destiny Beta. Each beta code you've registered to Bungie.net (up to a maximum of four) will land you three download keys on the platform you choose. So you can invite your friends into the beta even if they haven't pre-ordered the game.

If you play the beta on Saturday, July 26 from 8 PM PDT, you'll get a special emblem to use in the final version of the game.

Also, I chuckled at this bit in the FAQ, in regards to Australians needing to choose Europe for the PlayStation beta codes:

Quote:
 
Q. I live in a country that is participating in the Beta, but my country isn't in the Americas or Europe. Which code region should I select for my platform/region?

If you are in Japan, the Destiny Beta is PS4 only. You do not require a code to participate.

For everybody else, select Europe as your region. And yes, we know Australia isn't a part of Europe. Select Europe anyway. Love, Bungie.

Welcome to Europe Luffy.

I assume for a US PSN account I can just use Americas as an option even if I'm in Europe at the moment.

Edit: Apparently EU accounts can download the beta right now (NeoGAF).

Go to the EU PSN store, search for Destiny, pre-order it (for no immediate charge), and the Beta will begin downloading.

It will say that it has completed after downloading a small portion of it, but will continue to download in the background. To see the actual progress, navigate to the Destiny Beta tile, click the OPTIONS button, and select Information. You'll see a screen similar to the one in this post.

You will be able to play it on your main account in any region, so long as you go to Settings -> PSN -> Activate as Your Primary PS4.


Thanks to Dan27 for cancellation instructions:

OK. For PS4 clarification:

Pre-order the title. It will start downloading the beta.

Then go into: Settings -> PSN -> Account Information -> Wallet

Select: Transaction History.

Select: Next

You should see a Product Purchase in the amount of UK/Euro 0.00 from the date you preordered. Click on that Purchase entry

Select: Cancel Pre-order


That means you'll be able to download the Beta, and also ensure that the preorder is cancelled.


Going to assume it's for pre-loading.

Yes. Store access is based off of the country selected in the account profile. US? System will access US Store servers. And so on.

Also, in regards to the three codes, anyone want one of my extras? As I posted above, they are European codes, so you'll need an EU account. I'm posting about this elsewhere, too, because it's better that a complete stranger uses it rather than possibly no one at all.

Sounds good, now hopefully it won't take forever to download.

Likewise, anybody with an American PSN account who wants a code let me know. I'm redeeming the code for PS3 (don't have a PS4 here) so if anybody wants an extra code just let me know :).

Everyone must be trying to access the PlayStation Store at once, because I can't load it on my PC.

Yea apparently PSN and Bungie.net were down but I actually haven't had a problem the whole day. Going to leave it to download the beta while I go out for the night (won't be done by the time I'm back anyway so fuck it lol).

Redeemed my code and gave one to a cousin (still have 1 free for now) on PS3 (Americas).


Edit: Last code given. Have fun :)

Yes, you will. Those two extra codes will also be for the Xbox One.

On the beta itself, there's not actually much to do. You get the story missions from the first area (Old Russia), the first Strike mission, as well as the ability to explore Old Russia freely. Aside from that, there's also the first Crucible match-type, Control. That's it. After you've done all that, there's nothing new to do. The beta also caps you at level 8.

It's a fun game so far, but I managed to get through just about everything after the first day. Once it comes back online in two days, I'll probably just play it quickly to get the exclusive emblem.

I tried it a little yesterday, seems like a basic shooter with that mmo crap. What's supposed to be so special about this?
