At this rate, the download will take forever
Fastest speed I've had ever

 

[ComputerBlue]

Shocking news

Really, it's pretty damn frustrating because PSN was never this bad when it was free on PS3, this happens far too often now when we're required to pay.

 

[Sodding_Gamer]

Foook sake finally got to my profile and under "codes" my code has disappeared!

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Just selected my platform, how many codes you actually get? Cause it tells me to return on the 23rd for my code(s)

3 codes. You must be Xbox 360/Xbox One. Only Sony platforms are receiving Beta codes today.

Really, it's pretty damn frustrating because PSN was never this bad when it was free on PS3, this happens far too often now when we're required to pay.

There's never been anything like this on PS3 though. Dark Souls 2 Beta is nothing compared to this.

 

[CreateNowSleepLater]

OH COME THE FUCK ON

I entered my code and was right at the confirm download screen and it kicked me out

I swear to Christ I could TASTE it! FUCK EVERYTHING

Me too, I entered the code through the site but cant download.

 

[Bunta]

"The code you entered may not be correct or may no longer be valid."


.... :|

 

[Spine_Ripper]

This is like the first time ever where I'm on the good end of this type of shit. 20℅ downloaded and going. Too bad I'll probably have to leave home right when it's done.

 

[JohnOfMars]

Once I redeem the code do I need to do anything else to get it download to my standby PS4? Both "Download Queue" and "Download List" are hanging and not loading for me.

Tip: If you enter the code and it errors when you try to redeem, check your purchase history for the Beta. It's probably been successfully redeemed. Happened to me.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

 

[bebop242]

If you're sharing codes right now, you're part of the problem

Ha that's what I was thinking when I see people giving codes out. I've got one or two to give out but I'm waiting for later.

 

[alr1ght]

Doesnt take much to crash PSN.

PS4 launch.. Service was overloaded.
Destiny launch.. Service is overloaded.

SONY PLZ.

On a midday Thursday too, when most people are probably at work.

 

[Xater]

Shocking news

Yep, fuck you Sony. Amazing timing there.

 

[Dug]

Redeemed a code in the PS4 store and now there is just a loading bar on screen. Should I wait or retry?

 

[Saganator]

OH COME THE FUCK ON

I entered my code and was right at the confirm download screen and it kicked me out

I swear to Christ I could TASTE it! FUCK EVERYTHING

See Destiny on your XMB? Go to it, hit options button, go to Information. It should show its download status.

 

[NarrowPath]

Up to 34 percent of the 10.97gigs

 

[Fonds]

Cannot start application. Cannot connect to server to verify the license ;(

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

0.21/10.97 here l, we are part of the 1%!!

I'm at 6%. There goes my pla of playing Destiny tonight ='[

 

[RageWaffles]

I was able to enter my code into PSN, but got kicked out of the store with an error before I downloaded it. Now, it's not in my downloads list, and PSN isn't accepting the code anymore.

Edit: nevermind. I got finally got PSN to take the code. Still no luck getting through to the download

Spoiler

And the EU preloaded version is like nope as well

 

[ckleow]

downloading/installing 10.97gb of game content INGAME,.... this is dumb.
i can't have the ps4 on standy-by to d/l it.

 

[SirCrush]

PSA: If your download seems to stop short. Don't panic. If you go to Destiny Beta on XMB, options, and then look at Information, you'll see that you are indeed downloading the game.

Nice. 2.3gb/12gb here and going at about a 3mb/s plug.

 

[Fracas]

oh god it's so slow

bungie why have you forsaken meee

I'm going back to Halo 4

 

[Ricker]

Still loading on PSN after entering the code...afraid to back out now and see the code not work anymore...

 

[Gazkapop]

Got my codes now!

If you keep seeing "no results", give a few seconds and they should eventually appear. If not, refresh and then refresh some more.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Clearly our money is not being invested into improving PSN, it still crashes at the slightest hint of traffic.

one of the biggest pre-order betas in history is not a slight hint of traffic.

 

[Izayoi]

Who's brilliant idea was it to not allow pre-loading, again?

 

[TheHall]

Even the "restore licences" is giving me error messages.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Got my code redeemed on Sony's site, but can't access PSN on my PS4

 

[Borman]

...it said from the start that you got three codes. Not sure why people are surprised by this.

Still waiting for the storms to pass on SEN.

 

[Deadly]

Goddamn I forgot how terrible the PS3 wi-fi is...

 

[PTG]

After refreshing the Bungie site 30 times I finally got my code. After putting the code in I click confirm and there's a PSN error message! Now everytime i go to the store there's an error message! Why couldn't NA preload Sony?!

 

[Milestoned]

Do you have a Bungie code that you redeemed to have a license for it after canceling the preorder?

My preorder is still up but when I get my codes mailed, I will redeem it, maybe this will work.

 

[Vashetti]

You think this is just a slight hint?

No, but it's crashed at much less in the past too.

 

[KnightHart]

YES I GOT IT. As soon as I clicked confirm: "PSN is undergoing maintence" and I got kicked to the home screen.

Who the fuck thought getting everyone to get their codes from Bungie and having them all download at once on PSN thought this was a good idea

 

[Dug]

Doesnt take much to crash PSN.

PS4 launch.. Service was overloaded.
Destiny launch.. Service is overloaded.

SONY PLZ.

I think PSN crashed after they announced the Hardline beta.

 

[BMO = GOAT]

I'm at 6%. There goes my pla of playing Destiny tonight ='[

For some reason im stuck at .21

 

[Xamtheking]

Cannot start application. Cannot connect to server to verify the license ;(

Settings->PSN->Restore Licenses

 

[WJD]

Why the fuck am I getting "invalid format" errors when trying to redeem my codes on this page?

http://www.bungie.net/en/User/coderedemption

 

[TimeEffect]

Yeah, it's not like there was a countdown to this Beta or any hype or media coverage surrounding this shit. I mean, who knew this was even happening today?

I sure as hell didn't.

Shouldnt there be improvements though? Especially now that we pay $50 a year. I dont know how it works, but I assumed it was possible to improve/prepare better for server overloads.

 

[J 0 E]

Damn PSN

 

[Halo 2]

The Erroring begins

 

[Scarphace]

Got my codes, downloading now

 

[OléGunner]

Once you input the first code you have only 1 minute to input the other 2, otherwise you'll be locked out of the beta.

Spoiler

Seriously though, the other 2 are for you to give away.

Heh, got a slight jolt after seeing that! Such is my hype level lol. But PSN tanking now is balls

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Why 3 codes?

I used one and the other 2 said already spent, I don't get it.

You could have given the other codes to your friends

 

[Ooccoo]

I loathe the new way gaming is shaping up

Online-only
Beta codes instead of just downloading a client
Unscheduled maintenances

fuck that, I just want to play but I know the download will take at least 5 hours

 

[Dre_G_Writer]

 

[Subtervotion]

This was like a multi step try and fail thing.

-Reload bungie.net over and over, finally get codes.
-put codes into ps store, error messages, finally accepted.
-download small destiny client, errors.
-finally downloads, open and try to connect.
-finally connects, start downloads.
-???

Can I finally play? Should have allowed preloading all around.

 

[Apathy]

Lol, ps4 owners will really only get a 4 day beta head start instead of 5, as we though. Hope they fix this for the Xbox beta so they dont get screwed, for now, back to hitting f5

 

[constantstatic]

finally installing after restarting the ps4 it finally started downloading in the client but its going super slow for my 150 Mbps. I see psn is still super slow games on Xbone always download at top speeds for me.

Im off to get energy drinks and snacks good luck everyone ill see you in the game.

 

[ilikesanta]

Finally got my code, went to the store, entered code, went to confirm I wanted to download the BETA, store crashes. D:

 

[Melchiah]

Who's brilliant idea was it to not allow pre-loading, again?

Little good did the pre-load do, as I can't start up the game. =/
