Cool. I still gotta try to get into this, but I actually haven't even messed around with the PS Now beta yet and I have a code for that. I think I need to look into that first.
might wanna try destiny first its beta ends on monday.
Got a code last night and played a little bit. Played the first level, killed some foes and a wizard as well. Didn't really meet other players.
So far, I love it. Sure, the visuals are still rough, but it is the alpha. The visual design is gorgeous and beautiful, though and the controls are spot on. It instantly feels like a Bungie game and I mean this as a huge compliment. Some companies pull off good FPS controls via game pad, others don't, and Bungie nailed it again.
You get a little glimpse of the character creator and the skill tree and loot and after the first mission you get to see the tower, which is basically the central social hub with everthing from mesages, missions and weapon stores and such. The potential hinted at is amazing and I absolutely [not on a family site] can't wait to get my hands on the final game. Will definitely pre-order so I get to participate in the beta and have to have this day one.
"Halo meets Borderlands" sums it up rather nicely. Halo is one of my most favorite ips ever and I loved Borderlands 1 and 2 as well, so...
@Tasuki@Scollurio I'm so in, guys! Can't wait to play this beauty with you guys. @Gamer83 Lookin' in your direction, as well!

Not sure I'm gonna have time then between work and the fact I'm still not done with Watch Dogs also, every time I fire up the PS4 to do something else I put that game in and get hooked. Eh, maybe it's better, I'll have nothing spoiled and it will all be fresh when I finally get to play this game. Until then, I'll trust all the stuff you guys tell me, good and bad.
Ok so what is the trick to defeating the wizard? I got up to him but I just keep running out of ammo and dieing at him. I dont even seem to make a dent in him. I shoot at him but I don't notice his life going down.

@Tasuki Don't know which class you're playing, but I messed him up with my warlock eventually. Aim for the head, as this does more damage and use your secondary, special weapon (change weapons with triangle), as it usually does more damage. Also, use your special powers. At the beginning you have two, fired either with L1 or R1. This also helps.
Also, the wizard has a shield that regenerates rather quickly. Over his yellow health bar is a secondary, white bar (his shield) that's going away when you hit him with stuff but, as I said, regenerates when you allow him the time to do so...only if his shield is down, his yellow health bar diminishes.
After what I played last night I will definitely be getting Destiny, loved it and cannot wait to try the Titan class later on today as I maxed out my Warlock last night which for the alpha is level 8. I'll type up my impression of Destiny when I get back this afternoon, and put as much info in to it as I can, cannot wait for the final game.
Im wholly impressed by the alpha. The comptetitive multiplayer feels a lot like Halo (and many other parts of the game too, obviously) - that means that I like it soso (the competitive part) because I had SO MUCH Halo already in my life, but I am sure when the playing field is more leveled and people have their unique weapons and chars it gets lots better, as for the rest: STUNNING. Love it. Can't wait. Preordered!

Hope this helps. Hang in there, buddy!
I was using the hunter class. (I have always been a sucker for hunters ever since my WoW days). Thanks for the tips and I hope to try them out later. For the most part I kept trying to get this guy from a distance and the secondary weapon I found wasn't too good from a distance. Guess I will just bum rush him next time lol.
As I said before I am not the best FPS player in the world.

Tasuki, I should be online later, so if you still have problems with the wizard or just want to tackle him together, send me an invite and we shall bring him down together.
Same goes for you other guys, 'f course...if anyone feels like trying out some multiplayer, jus' send the word.

Thanks for the offer but I am afraid I wont get much time during this Alpha phase to play multiplayer. I have to work both today and Saturday both of them late shifts. Might get some time Sunday. If I see you on at some time I will shoot you an invite.

@Demi_God I love it! Haven't been so hyped for a game for years...and the alpha did that. Was interested before, but after playing the alpha for a mere hour, September can't come soon enough.
@Tasuki Cool, man. See ya Sunday then, maybe...and if not, there's always the beta in July...and Sept., of course.
For those that have tried it, do you like it even though it's Alpha? I'm quite hyped for this game.
I am enjoying it. So far it is very playable, I haven't experienced any crashes or bugs as of now. But this is probably a late Alpha since they are scheduled to go into Beta next month. I am guessing that this Alpha is to test stability of the servers and what not, which makes sense as to why so many invites went out. The name of the game is to get as many people on as you can at different times so that way you can see if your servers will hold up for launch day and even beyond.
@Reverend_Skeeve: For sure man in fact I am going to preorder this game today.
Has anyone found the extremely high level enemy that one shot killed my level 6 warlock? Might need to get a Fireteam together to take him down.
Absolutely loving this small glimpse of Destiny and I've not even tried the PvP yet.
Nope I haven't. Was it an event? I saw my son find one of those and it kept killing him cause no one else was around to help him.
It's on a ledge by the helipad that's on the far side of the map where The Fallen and the Hive are fighting each other outside. When you target it the level says ?? and it appears to be guarding a room.
Be careful though one shot took me out completely!
