Charlie Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 I think I'd buy a PS4 if I can get beta access to this. Maybe that'll be my entry point. But I thought we'd get the whole Halo 2 crew back together again!
Shorty Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 6h ago they were still tweeting that you can enter, someone said 5pm tonight (BST) but no source. If I get in I honestly might just go out and buy a PS4.

Shorty Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Just occurred to me that I'm actually away all weekend so there wouldn't be much point jumping in for that I'll probably get one for the beta though.
Guy Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) But I thought we'd get the whole Halo 2 crew back together again! Oh man, after that Microsoft announcement I'm gonna struggle not to jump in when the Master Chief Collection hits. Those Halo 2 glory days are coming back. --- [edit] Wait... everyone will get into the Alpha? Augh, AUGH, luckily I can't in any way afford a PS4 right now (even with my ridiculous ability to justify unnecessary expensive purchases) or I would be seriously down with some Alpha action this weekend.

Those Halo 2 glory days are coming back. You need to do it man. Not only will be it be Halo 2 but mixed with the best parts of Halo 3 as well.
James Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Got the desinty alpha code. If anyone needs one I'm away all weekend so won't have a use for it. Let me know.
drahkon Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Downloading now : peace: Can't wait to give it a go. Also got a beta key for pre-ordering. Redeemed it already and Bungie will contact me when everything is ready for the beta
drahkon Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Just got my Alpha code, downloading now, 6.7gb. Yeah...that file size. With my download speed it'll take a while... Ah well, I'll just have my PS4 on standby tonight.
bryanee Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Ooooh I really like it. It went from a maybe to a day one. Any game that can get 8 strangers to start dancing with each other the moment they group together is ok with me.
Map Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Yeah...that file size. With my download speed it'll take a while... Ah well, I'll just have my PS4 on standby tonight. Same here, won't get to play till tomorrow now. Will add some of you guys if that's ok, my PSN is MPryer.
CoolFunkMan Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Fuck. I'm out tonight and won't be back until tomorrow afternoon. Is there any way for me to activate the alpha, via the Playstation mobile app?
ShavenWolf Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 I was playing the game via Remote Play last night, and it works smashingly. And this isn't my picture, but the control scheme on Vita works really well:
Charlie Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Wish they had an Xbox One alpha as well. Would love to give it a try as I'm really undecided on it. Hopefully the beta will make up my mind.
Daft Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Got an alpha code. Redeemed it through my computer before going to bed last night. It's not letting me download it on my PS4, though. Yay. How fucking annoying. And I have the day off.
drahkon Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Got an alpha code. Redeemed it through my computer before going to bed last night. It's not letting me download it on my PS4, though. Yay. How fucking annoying. And I have the day off. Don't worry, the game sucks. LOL. It's pretty great. Day-one for me!
Daft Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Don't worry, the game sucks. LOL. It's pretty great. Day-one for me! Managed to get it working by queing it to download on my PS4 from my PC. ...But it's too sunny to sit inside and play videogames right now so I'm going to read in the garden after all that.
Guy Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 So jealous. Have fun guys! Hopefully I can join the beta in a few weeks.
Daft Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Okay, had a solid couple hours on it. Verdict? Bloody love it. It's like Halo meets Mass Effect.
drahkon Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Bloody love it. It's like Halo meets Mass Effect. YES! Saw you were playing just now. How did the strike go? :p I finished it again, wasn't easier the second time...at least my teammates were a bit more competent than the last ones.
Daft Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 YES! Saw you were playing just now. How did the strike go? :p I finished it again, wasn't easier the second time...at least my teammates were a bit more competent than the last ones. Got to the spider tank bit after having to hold off three waves trying to get that door open and had to quit. It's definitely not easy, that's for sure. Think I need to level up a little more. Maybe buy some better guns, too. What class are you playing as? I'm a Warlock. Made him look like the Flash.
