    I just created a Blizzard account.  Was never asked for any form of authentication including SMS.It took me 3 times as long (and four posts) to find out how to add a picture than it did to create the account.




    Sure you can create an account but you CANT claim the fee destiny gift until you set up sms.  I know as I just made a new account for my boy and while I was able to make the account I can't claim the gift:

    Purchased game when it launched, but didnt buy both (osiris and another one) dlc releases before forsaken. Does this version got em?



    No, it just the base game but if you buy the new forsaken dlc. You will get the previous dlc expansions for free.

    You know what? It's not a bad deal. Sure, you've got to get the latest expansion if you want to play it properly but you get a lot of game here for free and it let's you make an informed decision yourself.

    Don't see anyone mentioning it but this is not entirely free.

    W/o getting into the whole mobile thing an d how scummy tracking and google profiling is and how it all works together to make money,this is only free if you enbale SMS on your cell phone ..lmao,,not so free.



    Of course they claim it is all about you and your protection,,yeah good one blizzard,i understand how Kotick and Morheim sits down at the table every night worrying about our safety.


    I'd give you a LOL but doing so would be giving you a pat on the back for choosing to be utterly ignorant.



    so is it free or not? confused by some of the comments. do i need to cancel something after claiming it to avoid a charge??

    New Battle.net accounts created after 11:00 a.m. PDT on November 2, 2018, will be required to enable Blizzard SMS Protect before claiming their game license. Destiny 2 is redeemable from https://account.blizzard.com/gifts/.

    Yeah your right ignorance is sometimes unstoppable,unless your looking for a lol yourself?



    It's ignorant to say that enabling sms messaging makes it not free. That would be their point. You know this though Wiz, you like to overreact bro, it's like clockwork.

    maybe if he shows on this dummy where the evil sms touched him, I could relate. It's free. Do we expect Blizzard to send us a PC aswell and pick up the electric bill at the end of November too? It's free for existing customers.

    I had ow perma banned for "language"... I never chat... It's against my arena and MoMoba gaming style (my hands glued to controls).
    I was winning.
    I would farm weeks worth of loot boxes in a day.
    Next day. Banned for life.

    Thats funny , i did not need SMS to claim and had a friend who has never played any Blizz games at all ever and did not have a Battlenet acct , create an acct last nite and claim his game in under 5 min no SMS either ( he did not mention it) was in Disco with him while he set it up, ill ask him later if it required SMS ..  .....Soooo

    Also do not forget that last month, Forsaken now comes with Year 1 DLCs (Osiris and Warmind) so for roughly US$ 40 (no season pass) to be current to what is out now.

    108 GB?  Maybe I'll be able to play sometime in January.



    Not sure where you got 108 GB from. That's probably installed, but the actual download was 80 GB for me.

    Whoa! Seriously? I was kind of intrigued but if its that big a download fuck that noise.



    That's likely the installed size. My download was only 80 GB. Same with my nephew. Only 80 GB.
  • ManestreamManestream Member UncommonPosts: 941
    i bought the game not that long ago. Have not bought any DLC's. Now i feel gutted that i did not hold out another couple months
  • PhryPhry Member LegendaryPosts: 11,004
    You don't need the SMS thing to claim it, just launched the blizzard app and it was there in the gift box and all i had to do was claim it, i don't have an sms whatsit, just having a regular keyfob authenticator is enough probably. :/
  • Octagon7711Octagon7711 Member LegendaryPosts: 9,000
    I have SMS protection but you only get asked to use it if your on a different IP address or wipe cookies from your PC.  It's easy with Authy.

    Plus you get access to Gambit for the weekend.
