Thanks for the responses. Some follow ups, if you please:

[*] Death looks like it comes quick. How did it feel in the Alpha? Most of the deaths looked to be one-shots, with most exceptions coming via mid/long-range machine gunning. Was that the general experience in the Alpha?

Death is pretty quick. One shots are only with shotguns, snipers, and supers. It's definitely faster than Halo, but I've gotten out of situations a lot before getting killed.

Did this seem OK to you? Meaning, is it something you think you could mitigate as you got better (i.e. more experienced or whatever)? Further, there seemed to be a lot of 1v1, and not much team shooting. True? Or, simply a function of the map type? Is team shooting de-emphasized because of the quick deaths?

Tomorrow you'll select your platform on Bungie.net.

Literally tomorrow? I'd be glad to get the red tape out of the way long before the beta period - I don't want to waste what precious time we do have.
