    Still unsure if I'm picking this up on PS4 or X1.

    Was looking to pick it up in Smyths because there pricing hasn't been as bad of late. However 64.99 being the cheapest in bricks and mortar hmm. For a game of this calibre I would have though it could have been bought cheap for the first day.

    Not got the bandwidth for DL and not got the patience for delivery :P

    Ah spoon, you know all your cool friends are on XB1 ! :)

    You can buy the Guardian edition which is €130 in GameStop for around €65 on the us store for the Xbox One. Not too sure about PS4

    I was under the impression your exp earned and that was accelerated during the beta so people could see all the possible content quicker. Which I think is understandable, didn't want people getting to max level too early after release although I bet there is people up there at the moment!

    Just got my copy this morning, can't wait to get into it. I'm on ps4 add me on; TEQUILASHOT360

    I'm GenericDreadHead, see you on there later (after the longest 8 hours of work ever) :pac::pac::pac:

    FWIW, the PS4 has timed exclusive content for between 6 and 12 months including Raid/Strike, MP Maps, gear and more!

    From searching around, here are the prices I found for in store purchase:
    Smyths & Argos €65 for next gen and €58 for last gen
    Gamestop €75 for next gen and €65 for last gen.
    Tesco I know they were selling for £40 in UK not sure about Irish prices.
    Xbox Live €70 on both 360 and One.

    Has anyone else have any recommendations for those who have not pre-ordered?

    I heard back from Tesco Ireland they are selling Xbox One for €65 so I guess last gen is €58.

    When there is only €5 in the difference why not get the digital copy on Xbox 360 which will then unlock the game on Xbox One too. Plus no getting of the couch to put the disc in (first world problems)

    Did you pick it up this morning? If so happy days, will be getting it later.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Static M.e.


    Left the X1 on last night and I only had a 1.5 mb download this morning so I was up and running before work.

    Question. Those loot boxes, are they hidden across the landscape or do you get them at set points? I don't want to miss out on any LOOOOOOT


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Static M.e.


    For the Beta people. How does PVE vs PVP work? Does PVP kick in after a certain level or do you have to go to a certain area?

    Thanks (lvl 2 until 5:30..)

    I prepaid for it off the US marketplace on sunday, it was 18 gig and it was downloaded before I left for work yesterday morning. I wasnt able to play it at midnight last night though - its timelocked to Midnight in the USA. should be good to go tonight though, I'll be online from about 8:30, sooner if I can get those pesky kids of mine to bed earlier!

    You go to the Tower at lvl 5 in Beta and it unlocks The Crucible which is the PvP arena

    Got the CODAW preorder bonus for Destiny in Gamestop by preordering it and then cancelling it.

    Same here, but I'll keep the preorder and use it towards Evolve or Bloodbourne. Apparantly you need to visit the blacksmith to get that item.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,486 ✭✭✭Shred


    I'm really on the fence about this. On the one hand it looks visually amazing. On the other (from the bits I've seen) it reminds me of Mass effect, which I liked but didn't love. Then it seems like it's a huge game and I'm not sure if I have the time. Then I might consider trading Battlefield 4 & Assassin's Creed 4 for the HMV deal...I'm so indecisive sometimes dammit :o

    this was exactly the same thing i wanted to know! id get sick of just constant shooting, be nice to be able to take a break from shooting to do other things


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,870 ✭✭✭✭Generic Dreadhead


    So 9 am today I got
    • White PS
    • Destiny
    • PS Exclusive Content
    • Vanguard Armoury
    • Upgraded Sparrow
    • Expansion Pass
    • COD Pre-order with Guardian Armour Shader (gonna swap this pre-order to Evolve or Bloodbourne)
    • 1 Year Game Protection
    • A Cool looking Destiny Warlock T-Shirt (Warlock FTW)

    All for €458

    There is literally not a piece of content as of right now created for the game I do not own/have access to :pac::pac::pac:

    I promise this will be the 1st and last time I even brag/boast, I'm just super excited, now I just have to get through 8 hours of work


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,410 ✭✭✭Icyseanfitz


    how did you get all the additional content? (bar the expansion pass?) , i am picking up my pre ordered white ps4 destiny bundle later today from gamestop, does it all come with it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,276 ✭✭✭readyletsgo


    Ok, as someone who never was into online mmo's, could this be the game for me? 8hour single player campaign sounds short but good to me. Never played Halo.

    Need to use my ps4 :)

    The Vanguard Armoury code (should) be inside the game disc on a sheet, the PS4 should come with a physical copy of the game inside the box.

    The Sparrow should come as a separate code they manually print out at the counter - This might be one of those things you have to ask for, our Gamestop manager is a real nice guy so some times he might throw in extra stuff

    The Expansion pass is €35 in-store if bought with the game, normally €45-€60 depending on who you believe

    The T-Shirt is €5 off, so €15 instead of €20, It looks cool, and if enough of us get it, we can nod to each other as we pass in the street, like a secret "we're in the Free Masons type thing" :pac:

    The COD Preorder is €5, can be canceled/transferred
    1 year game protection was €3, Normally don't go for this, but made an exception

    The PS4 exclusive stuff is open by virtue of the fact it's the PS4 version of the game

    Gamestop really saw me coming :P

    The copy of Destiny in all the bundles(black and white) have the preorder pack inside the box.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,162 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Is it more PvE or PvP focused? Very tempted to pick it up on the PS3.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭syboit


    for anyone who missed the beta like me, found this quick walkthrough video for the first 20mins

    Think I spent an hour in the tower before I realised I had to head back out to old russia , do'h!

    Bah I keep getting disconnected because it's telling me my internet isn't strong enough, never had a problem with the beta or other games. Using one of those damn TP-Link boosters, anyone know how to configure them for games?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Big Knox


    The girlfriend ordered the PS4 bundle from gamestop.ie on Friday and there's still no notification of it being dispatched.

    Trying to ring them all morning to see what's going on but can't get through and they don't even have a hold system. It's also now showing up as out of stock on the website but they've taken the payment already.

    GAMSCHTOP WHY YOU DO THIS??? :(

    Only managed to get to the City last night before going to bed. Counting the hours until I can get home and resume. Beans on toast for dinner I think.
