Sparkle Sparkle Sparkle!

I spent my entire day devoted to getting a Bag. I guess I'll be buying it off of eBay for twice the price. Smart move, Bungie.

There were only a couple of hundred bags to go between thousands of people, it was inevitable that most people wouldn't get one.

The only thing I feel Bungie could have done better was letting people know about the store change more officially.

I had hoped to get one for my cousin and I'm disappointed that I didn't manage to, but that's not really Bungie's fault.

Hi.

Yes, it is a competition but still the 2 companies asked you to stop f5ing them...if you kept going noone would have anything.
Barely anyone stopped. They solved the solution (moving the link), but did so retardedly (used a suspicious and un-notable name without any warning at all).

You think Bungie owes you something? You're not entitled to anything in this world.
Here's where I learned that you're a little kid. You heard this somewhere and repeated it in the wrong context. Where did I say or imply this?

Goddammit. As soon as I got to the checkout screen they decided to go out of stock. Oh well I guess...

Well, I've got a confirmation email, it's listed as shipping soon, and my card has been charged.

Look's like this one is in the bag.[/terriblejoke]


You have no idea how much that statment angered me.

Not at you, really, just in general. I'd edit the pun out though, not everybody else will be polite like this.

Thankyou everywh3re!

Did you ever manage to get any more via the newer bungie store listing?
no, it's cool though.

As many as you ordered, let me make you an offer. There's something you should see behind this shed in the ditch...

I'm fed up, and cannot be bothered any more. A bunch of no-lifes managed to get the bags earlier after F5ing all day long, both on the first day of release, and today. Meanwhile, people like me have had our lives to get on with, namely in the form of jobs or feeding our families, as the sale time is late in the evening for us in the UK. Many of these tards aren't even true fans of Bungie, and have only been around since Halo 3 or even Reach. These people in particular piss me off. I've been a fan of Bungie since at least 2001, when I first played a Marathon game at the ripe age of 8. Ten years down the line, all I have to show for my fandom is a silly blue bar on their site, while people who have only just been introduced to Bungie are sitting there with their swag bags, claiming to be huge fans.


I hope you mean a silly blue bar and a continuation of great games to play and gear to buy. Not to mention weekly updates, responses from actual bungie employees, and a well made forum. Thats more than a lot i can say about other developers.

For the lucky individuals who have placed an order. Did you get a confirmation email yet? and if so how long did it take for you to receive it after placing your order?


Got my confirmation mail directly after placing the order. Also the status now stands at'shipping soon'. Just hope that they won't cancel my order.

So the people who got one can't be happy?
Makes sense.

Admittedly it was blind luck that I got one at all being that I got one from someone trying to order multiples, but still. If I didn't get one I would go around telling those who did get one to stop being happy about it.

God damn the store change. I was waiting for HOURS watching the stupid twitter and the swag bag page.

Seriously, screw anyone who ordered more than one.

I'm the little kid? You're the one acting like you're entitled to a bag o'swag. I'm the one trying to say we all had equal parts and you're saying that it was all Bungie.

Seriously, anyone know if there'll be another round?

  • 06.30.2011 1:11 PM PDT

I'm actually assuming that Bungie put a stopper on this one as well and that there are probably more Bags to be had later. Or at least, I can hope. I have work other days though.

Yes, I am irritated that I didn't get a bag. No, it's not the end of the world. I'll probably just get a Burn Bright, Burn Blue shirt. But my point still stands. Anyone who has only been here since Halo 3 or later and bought a Swag Bag: you disgust me.


You know at least 80% of the people on here are under 20 and are on summer break now? That doesn't make us no lives. You really need to grow up, just because you have been playing Bungie games since you were 8 does not entitle you to a bag.

Personally I discovered Halo CE, then I really got into Halo with Halo 3 and now I play all the games so all I have to say to you is: You disgust me by thinking your superior to everyone else who hasn't played as long as you.

Got a phonecall at 7:47pm from my g/f to say she had ordered it. Time on the email conf. on my phone says 7:40pm

Without a tweet or any notice... -blam!- you Bungie. Terrible way to handle it.

Literally just cried a bucket or two, I don't care what anyone says. I've been waiting all week then they pull this bull-blam!-.

I hope you're a little kid.

People really shouldn't be buying more than 1 though. I kind of hope all those orders of more than one will be cancelled. Feels unfair for everyone else, although in the first batch they all got through as well... so probably not. Still not sure if mine went through..

Spent this entire time trying to get a bag off of the original link. I honestly thought that everyone saying they got one from Gorilla Print or whatever was just trolling. I'm pissed, I'm upset, angry, etc. but I'm not going to take it out on anyone.
Could someone just link me to where a Bungie Official validated the "Bag Of Swag" page to set my mind at ease?

Now a days? Not really. It's pretty much a standard for most devs from Bioware, Valve, Treyarch, Bethesda, various Ubisoft dev teams etc, etc.
