Destiny 2's E3 demo line hits capacity 3 minutes after doors open

The patient masses, watching what they're waiting hours to see.

Whether or not you're personally excited for E3 show floor this year. Only three minutes after the doors opened for the first day of E3 this morning, the public line to play Destiny 2 was already completely full and had to be closed.

The news came in the form of a tweet from Bungie marketing director Eric Osborne. It's not unusual for E3 lines to be crazy long, but this is fast by any stretch of the imagination. Our own Tim Clark sent the picture above to show a glimpse of people in line, who have now been waiting for over an hour and a half to play the brief E3 demo.

The attendees in line "seemed happy enough," said Tim, who talked to three groups. Many of those he encountered came to E3 just for Destiny, and didn't appear surprised by the long wait.

The massive line was almost certainly impacted by the decision to make a few other tips that can help first-timers get through the event. 

Nvidia shared the first footage of Destiny 2's PC specific features.
