I cancelled my Amazon pre-order that I've had since last year, and I got the Digital Guardian Edition on PSN. Pre-loaded and ready for Tuesday! Too bad I have to work. Lame.

 

AB, you should check out Datto's youtube channel for Destiny coverage. His videos are pretty good. I'm sure you can get a good idea of the co-op gameplay and classes from his videos.

Well I'm definitely excited to get started. I decided to get the Digital Guardian Edition, so I am downloaded and ready to go, just waiting for Bungie to flip the switch Monday night.

The beta gave me enough of a taste to know that I will get plenty of hours in this game. Hopefully, I can recruit a good group of players to work through the campaign.

trooper, did you download list or "related items" for Destiny include anything about the DLC pass? I can see the vanguard armory in the "related items" list for Destiny, but I don't see the DLC pass anywhere.

it does list the two expansion packs that will be part of that dlc pass, they just can't be queued for download obviously. It lists those things on the product page before going through the order process and when I go back to that page, it reflects that I already own it.

About to pull the trigger on the limited edition at ?62 as I'll get the season pass.

 

Doing a bit of reading and the co-op intrigues me as people are saying Halo/Borderlands cross.

 

Should I do it? Also can someone give me a brief rundown of the classes, want to see if my playstyle would fit one better than another. Thanks

 

 

 

 

These are the three classes, each has two subclasses I believe which give different abilities.

Glad I pre-ordered and pre-downloaded this on Xbox One, the definitive edition. I am so excited for tomorrow!

 

this is not intended as flame bait but the Xbox One is not the Definitive edition the PS4 version is. or at least as stated by bungie it is anyway.

I would be interested to see why you think that? PS4 has the COD like DLC exclusives, probably map packs first and no doubt when DF do an analysis even with both at 1080p the PS4 will probably run better.

 

Like it or not, Destiny does have a lot going for it on the PS4.

 

I'm deciding between Titan or Warlock.

I think that because of my preference for the controller, the online service, the parity graphics, and of course....the DLC is only time exclusive, so really, it's the one to get.

Don't worry, yours is the better version :laugh:

I'm sure you guys will race to make a post with the DF analysis.

So its your preferred version, not some generalization. Everyone gets to decide for themselves.

stopped by the store on my way home from work and picked up my release group sticker (kind of like a boarding pass for a plane) i will show up a few minutes before midnight and still be one of the first 10 people to get mine. Also snagged a lanyard, bracelet an a few posters, i wonder if they will have more tonight.

The opening is unchanged from the beta, which is annoying because it just drops you into the game, but good because the opening video is awesome (In the "inspires awe" meaning).

Funny "bug", because I had previously redeemed codes posted here, along with the codes in the box, when I got to the city I got given a bunch of duplicate stuff. Meaning I now have 3 ghost casings, 2 sparrows, 2 arcadia jump ships and another limited jumpship, along with 3 emblems.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
