Confirmed: Servers open by the 9th for everyone.
Taken from the weekly update 22/8
[quote] ninjadragonkllr What time will the servers be open for the public in North America and worldwide?
When it is September 9th somewhere in the world, and you have access to your very own version of Destiny, it will be time for you to create a character that will keep you company for a good, long time. Retailers will stick to time-zones. Our servers won’t know the difference. Retailers will break street date. Our servers won’t. [/quote]
So it is confirmed that people who have their copy of Destiny will be able to play on the 9th at 12 am their time-zones. This is spectacular news seeming I am Australian. So happy that I don't have to wait 15-17 hours after I get my copy.
Everyone let out your sighs of relief and cheers of joy!
Edit 1: it seems that people keep talking about the last 2 sentences in the reply from Deej. I think people don't realise that he is saying that the servers wont be broken on the 9th but the stores will be from the amounts of people coming in to them.
[spoiler]it's a play on the fact that lots of games recently have had day 1 server issues[/spoiler]
Edit 2: please disregard my first edit. I hadn't heard the term be used like that before. I took a symbolic approach.

The game will be playable in your timezone at midnight the 9th of September This is the original post, as usual in Bungies form it’s a little cryptic and could be taken a few ways. What time will the servers be open for the public in North America and worldwide?

Here is a post on the forums and the answer from Deej which seems pretty clear. Deej, can you please clarify why the ps store is showing midnight PST? I want to make sure that if I preorder digital, I can play at midnight my time. DeeJ Edited: 7h 22m ago Permalink We don't manage the PS Store. You should ask them. Whenever you gain access to Destiny on 9/9, you can play. Can't make it clearer than that. And Finally an email conversation I had with Sony Dear Nado, Thank you for your recent email. Destiny will be available in Australia at midnight on the 9th September. Regards, PlayStation Support Centre REF: 140822-001965 Available yes but will it be playable? Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. Dear nado, Thank you for your email. With regards to the issue you are having, when it is available it will then playable. If you have any other questions please reply to this email or use the contact number below Regards, Rachael PlayStation Support Centre REF: 140822-001965 Clear?? Hope so
