"We're already testing @DestinyTheGame with a small sampling of brave subjects."

https://twitter.com/Bungie/status/306466300203528193 Seems like more people have gotten their hands on the game, but probably every single one was in-studio. Anyone else re-do their Beta information? So far no news on an open Beta :(

  • I think I've been signed up for beta selection since they first made the announcement, which as I remember was sometime around the release of Halo Reach. Been a forum member since Halo 2, and recieved an invite via my bungie.net account for the Halo 3 beta (after I had already bought crackdown just for the beta code haha). At any rate i'm hoping that they look at such loyalty from community members as a big part of deciding who they select, haven't anticipated a game this much since the excruciating wait for Halo 2.

  • I just love how those testers are keeping quiet due to their respect for Bungie.

    • You'll have to wait if you weren't selected. No big deal.

        Maybe it's been too long for people to remember how Bungie handles beta testing. Link is for background on the Halo 3 beta (curious if anyone here was old enough to get the game without a parent or [i]guardian[/i]...anyone? no? ok...). After internal alpha testing, Bungie started the beta testing with "Friends and Family". Few select persons were included in this stage. I remember thinking that, because I worked in a game store at the time, I would get some sort of squatting privilege. Haha, not sure if it was my enthrallment with Halo or my lack of sleep from my classes that made me believe that would make a difference. Regardless, while the "Friends and Family" testing was running its course, announcements for the (more) public beta started to surface. The details can be found in the link from earlier. Bungie will let people know when the beta will be available and how. To increase your chances, I recommend being proactive with your BNet presence and keep an eye on Bungie's social media outlets. Good luck and good hunting. edit: As much as it pains me to write this, I should note that there is no guarantee that public beta testing will happen. They also are the deciding authority if they need our help with their game. If you take anything from this just know that Bungie loves you and wants you to have the best experience when the game is released. I would say 'be happy' but some people are inheriently bitter and thrive on being 'not happy'. Like Tarder Sauce.

        • I would pay the full 60 euro's for the beta. Just looking at a single piece of concept art makes me look up everything Destiny related article at all the big gaming sites. Seriously i happened to see a piece of Destiny concept art about an hour ago, searched IGN, gamesradar, polygon, the verge, joystiq, giantbomb and escapistmagazine and now i'm here looking for anything new. Long story short: I can't wait to hear about the first person getting a beta key for either Xbox360 or Ps3, hell i'll even take PC (even though that's probably not happening seeing as is won't release for PC). (sorry for bad spelling spent enough time on destiny for today, see you guys tomorrow. ;)

            I re-did my beta information last week, but I had no confirmation that it actually accepted my answers (though it probably did). The beta user-research be more significant now that they've put it into the drop-down menu of our profiles.

            • I don't think they would have a beta out this early. If they do have a beta, it will probably be around June or July.

            • It is probably in internal beta or even further, but the beta we all know and love is most likely not what the aforementioned tweet is referring to.

                  • Dreamed about destiny last night: It was a bit of random gameplay and it was guardians vs spartans. Bungie were guardians and their guns ripped through the Spartans. Then they gave me a tshirt as i was the last to leave the studio. :D. Except when i woke up it was gone.....
