[i]I hope you are going to sincerely buy the game. I would hate for people to abuse this method and give their friends codes. [/i] Step 1: Depending on your region, choose a retailer you prefer. Go to said retailer's website (I.E.: Amazon.com) Step 2: Create an account (you will need an email address for this.) Step 3: Once the account is created, search "Destiny [platform]" in the search bar. Once you've found your preferred platform, click "add to cart". Step 4: Go to your cart. Click "proceed to checkout". Step 5: If you didn't do so before, you will need to input credit card information for this part. Don't worry, there's no cost to pre-ordering online. The credit card doesn't get charged until the item ships, so if you want to say, I don't know, cancel your pre-order before release, you can do so with no repercussions. Step 6: Await your beta code in your email's inbox. I would wait 3-5 days before taking action with Step 7. Step 7: Call the retailer if you haven't received your code via email. DEMAND that they email you a code right now, or you will take your business somewhere else. DO NOT take NO for an answer. Anyone who says "we will email you the code days before the beta" has no idea what they are talking about. TRUST ME. Step 8: Enjoy the beta. Feel free to ask any questions. Note: [i]I'm going to have to ask people not to abuse this method. We all know how precious pre-orders are to Bungie, and I don't want them to get angry and delete my threads.[/i]
