| Posted: 13 Jul 2017 01:14 PM PDT Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/46062 This week at Bungie, we're making final preparations for the Destiny 2 Beta. It's the moment we've all been waiting for: The Beta is upon us. No more long lines at events. Finally, anyone who wants to play Destiny 2 will. You'll get to bash enemies with your Sentinel's Shield, flip through the air while wielding your Arcstrider's staff, or rain fire from above with your Dawnblade. You've read first impressions and watched videos, but this will be your first true taste of what it feels like to be a Guardian in a new world. In addition to the new hotness, there will be some familiar (but updated) subclasses for you to play as well. The Beta will include Striker, Gunslinger, and Voidwalker with all of their Grenades, Melees and the top path of their abilities unlocked. The bottom paths will be saved for you to experience in the full game. When the Beta begins, we'll be right beside you. We're extremely excited to get to play Destiny 2 with the community for the first time. We're also eager to see what we can learn from you. This process began today. If you are good to go, you can start pre-loading now. Our friends from Destiny Player Support have the full details below in the "What's Up DOC" report. Speaking of our friends in the DOC, they'll be the ones communicating about any chop that we experience. Keep an eye on @BungieHelp during the Beta. All eyes will be on the millions of players who show up for the test. It's all part of the process that will help us get ready for launch. Feedback Frenzy Soon, players will be taking their first steps into the world of Destiny 2. We want to know what you think! The Feedback forum is already set up. From your first experiences in the Homecoming mission to your 100th hour of Countdown, let us know what you like and what you think can be improved upon in the future. If you notice anything weird happening and think you may have found a bug, we also have a place set up to house reports on any Game Issues. All Hands Got questions? Destiny Player Support will be your huckleberry. They have lots of info about Bungie.net, the Beta and beyond. This is their report.
Moo-vies ** Wait where is the Bungie Bounty? It's taking a week off. Don't worry, it will return after the Beta ends. In the meantime, we have movies to discuss. Every week our Creations page is overrun with new movies and this week was no exception. We like to pick a few of our favorites to share with everyone here and send their creators a little gift to show our appreciations. The best way to secure your chance at winning the coveted MOTW is to submit it to the Creations page. Ok, let's do this thing. Move of the Week: From Downtown Honorable Mention: Destiny 2 Strikes in a Nutshell Are you ready? Of course you are. You're about to be sitting in the copilot seat, helping us prepare for the launch of Destiny 2. This is where you get to be a part of the creative process. We're in this together. I know, it's a short update, but it's time to let the game do the talking. We'll see you online next week. <3 Cozmo [link] [comments]  |

| After the Parade: an Illustrated Destiny 2 Story Posted: 13 Jul 2017 08:50 AM PDT "Hush," he says.Above them, Cabal ships drag thick black smoke across the flickering twilight, and flames rise from the Tower. Legionnaires scour the streets, seeking out the cries of the wounded and afraid. "Hush," he says again, as the child starts to sniffle, and he pulls her into the shadows cast by an apartment block as a patrol makes its laborious way past. He was made to protect, made to serve, but he feels clumsy now; the hand on her shoulder is almost larger than her head and she has no armor to protect her bruised and burned skin from his rough gauntlets. When he tries to wipe the tears from her face he worries that he will be the one to break her. He followed her screams, just as the Cabal did. He had no rifle to kill the Legionnaires that would have silenced her; dispatched the first one with his boot-knife but was not quick enough to catch the second unaware. It is dead, but his chest-plate is cracked and burned and the thing that eats the Traveler has also eaten his Light. She is wearing yellow. A summer dress, for a celebration. When he offered her his gore-spattered hand she took it at once, and did not look back at the splayed and broken limbs visible beneath the rubble around her as though she knew there was no one left to wait for. He brushed dust and chips of concrete from the tight black curls on her head, and when she tried to smile her gap-toothed smile at him despite it all he knew that he would die the second death to save her. They pick their way through dust-covered streets and alleys, one grimy hand holding his armored fingers, the other wrapped around the silent shell of his Ghost. He told her to keep it safe, and she clutches it to her chest with an intensity that would do any Titan proud. To those behind the Wall, love and service. To those outside it, fury and fire. He is young: the Order's maxim has never meant much to him, but here at the end of an Age he feels each word burning in his chest and he wraps his Mark around her shoulders like a cloak, like a little Hunter, to keep the nearness of the night from her as best he can. When they hear the distant bursts of gunfire he waits until the chatter fades, then leads them in a different direction even though it gives him hope to know the City is still fighting. Perhaps if he ran to the violence he would find weapons or more Guardians, but he will not risk it. And so hours pass as they slink across the city, and as slowly as his wounds force him to move she still takes ten strides for every one of his. She has only one sandal, silver leather wrapped around a tiny leg, but he thinks that a single piece of armor is better than no armor at all. He finds a battered pulse rifle in a street that leads to a square, tries not to wonder where its owner went. The magazine is full, but it is all he has and there is no Ghost at his shoulder to synthesize ammo. He bends to pick it up, never letting go of the hand that holds his own, just as a troop of Legionnaires turn the corner in front of them. He pulls the child behind a crumbled wall. Waits one heartbeat, two; no slug throwers roar in response. Even so, they are between him and the direction he has lead, and he doubts he has the strength to cross the City again. Love and service to those within. Fire and fury to those without. The Legionnaires do not notice, but neither do they move on. More join them, and they begin to spiral out in all directions, continuing their search. It will not be long before they find him and the child. A narrow street, once hung with banners but now collapsing from the rooftops down, will lead her west, to the walls, away from Cabal patrols - as long as there is a distraction. He lifts her chin as gently as he can. "You have to run," he whispers. He is bad at whispering. "I'll keep you safe." "That way," he says when she stares at him in silence, pointing with his outsized hand down the shadowed street. He gives her a delicate push, points again. She blinks, once, then toddles into the dark, Ghost held close as though it will protect her. Perhaps, if there is a way to undo this disaster, it someday will. He props the rifle atop the ledge, lifts his visor and sights with naked eye. There are so many, he thinks, and then bites back a laugh - there are only eight. Love within. Fury without. The rifle barks. One Legionnaire dies and the others spin in confusion, firing in the direction of his cover. He ignores them, squeezes the trigger again. And again. And again. Love within. Fury without. Love within. Fury without. Love within. Fury without. Love within - Something tugs his arm. He looks down into the eyes of the little girl, and pure terror finds him. "I said run," he growls, but she does not, her face set in a scowl. He shakes his arm and she does not let go. A micro-rocket bursts against the barricade and he ducks, throws his body over her, sprays the rest of his bullets in response. The child buries her head in his cracked armor, her frail body shaking. Never has he been so afraid to die. He feels a fool. He tosses the rifle down, wraps one arm around the child and pulls her close. With the other he slams his visor shut. He takes a deep breath, and then another, and when at last there is a break in the constant fire he lurches to his feet, lifts the child to his chest, and runs. It is hard, so hard, to move full Titan-plate without his Light to drive it. His body aches. Something inside is probably broken, and he does not know how long it takes a body to heal without a Ghost. A slug hits him in the back and he stumbles but his armor holds, and he sprints down the street where he tried to send the child, the sound of jump-packs following behind. He ducks his head and cups himself around his charge, makes himself as big as he can, plows across the debris-choked pavement. The girl begins to cry again, though to his ears it is not the sound of fear but of fury, and before long he is roaring with it, and the two of them roar together down the long, narrow street as explosions scatter bits of ruins that once were homes. He does not know where he is going, knows only that he must go somewhere, that he will not stop until the child is safe or his legs no longer work; that when he has nothing left he will throw her from him and tear the Cabal apart with fists alone, Light or no. He has stopped counting the impacts. Every step is a knife in his chest. The Legionnaires must be close but he does not turn, lest the shield that is his body fail. He can feel himself slowing, a sensation that fills him both with wonder and despair, but he cannot force himself to let her go despite his promise. Something cracks against the back of his leg, and he is too tired and too hurt to correct. He lands heavily on one shoulder, slides ten grinding yards, arms still wrapped around the child. At the very least, they will have to rip him apart to get to her. Maybe, if he dies quickly, they will not notice her at all. Gunfire interrupts his thoughts, along with the sound of footsteps and the roar of Cabal. Hands grab him, drag him out of the street, but still he does not uncurl. He sees Hunter cloaks, Warlock robes, a Titan mark. "Hush," he tells the child, head still tucked close, while they cower in a doorway and around them Guardians fight. "Hush," he tells her, over their surprised cries of pain. "Hush," he tells her, over and over, until at last all is silent and he dares to lift his head and stand. He helps the child to her feet, and though he leans against the doorway it is her tiny hand in his that keeps him upright. He looks around at their saviors: most are near as bruised as he is. They nod their heads, pat him on the back, and he opens his mouth to ask for forgiveness, for leading the Legionnaires here, but a Hunter shakes her head as though she knows what he will say. Two Guardians lie dead. Truly dead. One Hunter, one Titan wearing the Mark of the Gatewatch. He waits the half-second for their Ghosts to revive them, feels sick when they do not rise. He swears that he will learn their names and add them to the Order of the Pilgrim Guard. Someone makes cooing sounds and tries to take the child, tries to give her water, but she refuses to let go of his hand, refuses to surrender his Ghost. For a moment they stand there, all seven of them in a circle around her, and it is as though a different light has risen to bond them all. They need ships. Weapons. Food, maybe. The child, at least, must eat. The Hunter offers water again, and he wonders how many new scraps of fabric she has taken for her cloak. A different Titan, this one wearing the Mark of the Six Fronts, hands him the dead Hunter's rifle - then looks down at the child, still clinging to his hand, and passes him a sidearm instead. They turn their backs to the Tower, and continue their slow march to the western wall. Perhaps they will find supplies along the way. If not, so be it - they are still Guardians, and they will save what light they can. Love within. Fury without. The Cabal have no word for 'retreat.' Soon, they will learn that the Guardians have none for 'mercy.'

| Posted: 12 Jul 2017 05:53 PM PDT This has happened to me and many others. I just want everyone else to be aware of it. I logged onto Bungie.net with my account that is 8 years old to check if my beta code was ready. It wasn't and I noticed in the top right corner I could link my Blizzard account. I thought I'd do that because I'm getting it on my PC as well and Xbox because of the release dates being different. Well, doing so actually created a NEW account while I was already logged in. And then I proceeded to link my gamertag to that new account without really knowing what was going on. By linking my gamertag, it removed it from my main account. This orphaned my 8 year old account and it is permanently inaccessible. With the new account, I lost all of my codes, including the beta code. This was my former account that no longer has a Guardian linked to it. My light was taken from me. https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/254/192168 There were no visible warnings that this could or was going to happen. If you want to link your Blizzard account, go to your settings and it should be in there. I'm pretty salty about this. I hope this finds anyone else and saves them from the trouble. /formatting Edit 1: I don't like it, but I have accepted that my account is lost. I'm an idiot for letting it happen but my goal here is to save anyone else from making this mistake. Just don't unlink your Gamertag/PSN. Don't be me. Edit 2: Some people are saying that it does give you a warning about your account already being linked. Others say it doesn't. Regardless, just be careful and make sure you don't unlink it. You don't want to end up like me and many others. Stay safe out there, Guardians. [link] [comments]  |
| For D2 Give Gunslingers Melting Point! Posted: 13 Jul 2017 08:33 AM PDT There's a lot of apprehension towards hunters coming into D2 mostly because of the loss of any supportive role in raid settings.
Aside from add-clearing, which every class has the ability to do, Gunslingers are the only useful raid subclass for (presumably) higher damage and orb generation.
So my suggestion is this: Give Hunters Melting Point!
This returns raid utility to the Hunter class, and when matched with Crowd Pleaser it effectively blends the Gunslinger and Nightstalker together into something equally entertaining. I can't see this breaking PVP and since Sunbreakers won't be using it any time soon (presumably) I could see this making a lot of Hunters very happy. [link] [comments]  |
| The Exo Stranger REALLY hates engrams... Posted: 13 Jul 2017 10:27 AM PDT |
| Nostalgia Overload on Boot Up of D2 Posted: 13 Jul 2017 10:37 AM PDT The feels and goosebumps I got from a title screen and loading icons is insane. Also, the music is so good, reminds me of the Vanilla music, but with Taken King and RoI influences in sound. [link] [comments]  |

| D2 Beta: PLEASE publish some basic stats when it's over! Posted: 12 Jul 2017 11:53 PM PDT I would really love to know how many people played the beta, maybe even per platform. Plus maybe some other basic stats. Or really important ones, like how much electrical power was used ;) I think it will be absolutely massive, with the majority of D1 players plus millions of what I like to call Hyped Hopefuls, including the PC community. Maybe /u/cosmo23 can make the suggestion @Bungie? Edit: Thanks for making me aware that this was actually a thing with the D1 beta: http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/stg.ign.com/2014/08/beta_infographic_large.jpg I had no idea! It's hilarious, and I have some confidence now that it will happen for the D2 beta. Yay! [link] [comments]  |
| Custom painted myself an FWC elite controller Posted: 12 Jul 2017 08:15 PM PDT So I decided to paint my elite controller with a Future War Cult/Destiny theme. I've never done anything like this before but i think it came out pretty Good! Check it out here https://imgur.com/gallery/MBPbD Edit: thanks for all the compliments guys! If anyone has any questions feel free to ask! [link] [comments]  |
| At some point, we need to have 'The Happiest' emote dedicated to David Samuel of Bungie. Posted: 13 Jul 2017 07:57 AM PDT Never have I seen someone more openly enthusiastic and positive about a game they have worked on. This guy's passion is resounding with the community and rekindling a lot of our own hype, passion, and internal 'I wanna be a badass' attitude than this guy. We NEED it. Maybe not at launch, but the first or second DLC possibly? Kudos to you David and the constant influx of positivity and excitement you give us for Destiny! [link] [comments]  |
| Destiny 2 Beta Community Montage Posted: 13 Jul 2017 05:39 AM PDT Hey everyone! I'm planning on making a community montage for the Destiny 2 Beta. I need people to send in clips. If you would like to be featured in the montage please send your best clips to: influxgaming21@gmail.com. Thank you, Guardians! [link] [comments]  |

| Destiny 2 Start Screen Misaligned Button Icon Posted: 13 Jul 2017 11:58 AM PDT Okay...this...it's absolutely unplayable. The blue color of the X button is misaligned with the black icon. [link] [comments]  |
| Subclass Wallpapers from loading screen on beta. Posted: 13 Jul 2017 11:46 AM PDT Thought some of you guys would like these plain loading screens from the beta startup which has the subclass icons.
Mobile versions (Need higher assets due to quality loss)

| Posted: 13 Jul 2017 07:29 AM PDT Full article on Gamespot.com. Very interesting to me considering the later release date, D2 appears to be lined up to be yet another massive success. [link] [comments]  |
| Tomorrow we will be closer to D2 release than to the gameplay reveal date Posted: 12 Jul 2017 05:51 PM PDT It has been 55 days since May 18th, and there are 56 days until September 6th. Just thought this was kind of exciting. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 13 Jul 2017 08:35 AM PDT Is there anyone else or is it just me that thinks that there should be absolutely NOTHING being brought back from D1. I see a lot of posts that were like "what weapon do you want brought back?" and "which crucible maps do you want brought back?" I always think to myself or reply "None" This is a new game with new experiences, the old stuff should be left in the past. We had a lot of great experiences with them and they should always be in our memories but they should stay in the past. I'm excited for new weapons, new exotics, new maps, and new experiences. Rehashing new weapons and stuff basically defeats the purpose of a "new" game...I know its a sequel so there should be traces of stuff from the first game and that spot is taken by the story and the lore. Anyone else agree with me? or am I the only one...I know I'll get downvoted into the Pit for this but idc [link] [comments]  |

| Trials of Osiris Highlights on Black Shield Posted: 13 Jul 2017 09:27 AM PDT Hey everyone! Here is this week's video on Black Shield. This map was interesting to say the least; it was pretty passive some games but otherwise it was pretty decent out there. Hope you guys enjoy: PS I asked Hawkmoona in Datto's chat why he wasn't at Norse's birthday party and this was Norse's reply to me... http://i.imgur.com/FHjRQfn.png Take care friends :) [link] [comments]  |
| Content Creators Shooting Destiny Props Posted: 13 Jul 2017 08:38 AM PDT I travelled to Guardiancon 2017 with some of the members of Team Titan and i brought my props with me for people to takes pics with and most importantly shoot us. However what i didn't expect is for Youtubers and Streamers to also enjoy the Destiny weapons that i had made. It was just awesome. https://youtu.be/U-YYjsyeUzQ [link] [comments]  |
