I'm having my Ghost edition shipped. I wont have it at midnight, but I'll be avoiding kids bossing around their moms at midnight launch and wont have to worry about my ediiton being unavailable. As long as Amazon upholds their shipping times!

I might give it a digital download to play it at midnight (yay disposable income), but that's usually when the servers are overloaded, so it probably isn't going to be as exciting.

I'll be doing digital and pre-load. The servers will definitely be packed on Sony side but I'm a firm believer in first come first serve so if I get in with the first legion bum rushing the server and never log off I hope I'll be ok.
 
This is the point in the argument I would hope somebody uploads a video of Ralph Fiennes in In Bruges.

"Honey. That's a phone. It's an inanimate object"

"YOU'RE A FUCKING INANIMATE OBJECT"
 
What's up with all the hate for different classes lol? Personally I've only used Warlock so far but they all seem pretty decent. Gonna give Hunter a shot in the beta first.

we are just messing around.

passing the time until Destiny is out.

at least I hope nobody is taking this stuff serious.

Wondering if the weekly update for this week will deliver anything worthwhile or be kinda ambiguous as usual.

I'm going to guess there will be screenshots, a recap of Bungie day/collector's edition shenanigans, a site update (or explanation of why it didn't go up) and maybe some Beta info. They could just as easily release Beta info next week before it goes up, but I think they'll want to make use of the exposure beforehand.
 
So any more word on if we will see the ship swoop in and drop everyone off when you land on a planet?

I don't think there has been any official word. It's probably a very script-dependent sequence that was cut like the destructible set-pieces seen in Public Events.

This. Its such a small thing that would add so much to the experience IMO. If other players could see my ship outside of the loading screen I would want to spend more time and shimmer on a better ship.

Isn't there also supposed to be a hangar in the tower? My guess would be that is where that big door at the center of the tower that was closed leads to..

The Hanger was in one of the side Towers. The Vanguard vendor and Future War Cult representative were located there, as was the Ship Vendor (I forget what her title was).

Edit- It's the Ship Wright

The Hangar was in the game during Alpha. It's the interior area to your right when you load into The Tower. It has two of the three faction vendors in there.

My memory is fuzzy. I definitely bought a ship off of the ship vendor but I forget what it looks like there. Was it called the hangar?

I was just looking at this art.

It was definitely The Hangar. I belive it was labeled as such on the map of The Tower? The area with the actual ships was on the other side of the gate/mesh barrier that was behind the Vanguard and Ship vendors.

Edit: Meaning we couldn't physically visit the ships.

We already made it clear: Hunter = Clint Eastwood = Han Solo = Indiana.
Aka the cool guys who don't need any magic/force/whatever to get the shit done.
Go back to The Tower and let the professional taking care of the business, Warlock.

You guys do know that Hunters are the smallest, cutest class, right!?

You just let the grown up Warlocks and Titans take care of ya... pull that shaw down tight round that lil' face! ;P

killing time at work.

Perfect.

Titan can hear and talk but doesn't watch where he's going and blindly rushes to his death.
Warlock can see and run his mouth about how awesome his space magic is, but doesn't hear the sniper firing his direction.
Hunter keeps silent to focus on the battlefield and spot her foes before they spot her.

Sorry, could you repeat that? Couldn't hear you over the gap in the poll between where Warlocks are and where Hunters are; it's so wide it's outside of sniper rifle range. Also my space magic is being really awesome and loud.

The entrance to the Hanger Tower is very close to Deckard Cain the Cryptarch (Engram vendor).

It was definitely The Hangar. I belive it was labeled as such on the map of The Tower? The area with the actual ships was on the other side of the gate/mesh barrier that was behind the Vanguard and Ship vendors.

Doh!

Thanks... then what the hell is behind the big door in the middle of the tower!?
