Subject: Bag o' Swag Confusion.

What on earth is going on with this bag o' swag? Suddenly switch sellers or something or is it fake? There's no comment on it at all! I'm sure myself and other's would feel better if someone from Bungie was to clear this up...

please say SOMETHING to give us some insight on the problem...

  • 06.30.2011 1:01 PM PDT

Pwned

Check under games there's a ton of stuff that's not supposed to be there. There shop appears to be going haywire.

Rap Rhyming Ray

the second page, titled Bag Of Swag, is real. It's even in the Bungie Store.

Simply put, Bungie decided to do a simple fix and not tell anyone. Many people, including myself, are extremely pissed now. Not only because we were checking the original page FOREVER, but also because of the confusion over whether or not the new page was fake.

As somewhat said on the facebook page, "it really is the fans that cared the most that seem to have been given the finger"

Was it legit? was it a scam? where was bungie to guide us?
Et Tu Bungie.

Anyone else notice the Gears of War: Trilogy and Halo 4 in the Games section of the store? Something's not right here... I just WISH someone would come and clear this mess up!

  • 06.30.2011 1:03 PM PDT

the conduit 2 for wii is in their games page, thats not right

"Freelancer powers activate!"
"See these tow hooks? They look just like tusks, and what kind of animal has tusks?" "Walrus" "Didn't I just tell you to stop making up animals?" - Sarge and Grif

That would be very nice indeed. I just sent 4 hrs refreshing a page only to find out they restocked elsewhere? Info would be nice.

Hi, my name is Robin but everyone say G. I'm a big Halo fan and I have all the halo games ( I'm a nerd :D )

must be fake, it have no text under it like the other things have and it's just on the 20th Anniversary page and not on the Accessories like the other.

If I'm wrong I hope Bungie have a good way to explain it to us and my 6 hrs of wait was for nothing -_-

  • 06.30.2011 1:06 PM PDT

I'm more ticked that I can't order Halo 4 right away. ):

  • 06.30.2011 1:06 PM PDT

This is all regretfully confusing. I can't even get an "Eternal" t-shirt in my size, and I am now having to deal with the uncertainty of this situation? I just want a freakin' Bag O' Swag, Bungie! WHAT IS GOING ON?!

They say the easy part of the game is getting your shot down. What makes you a pro is when you can outsmart the enemy.

This whole event was amazing. All in a facebook forum talking and being exiting. All this new -blam!- went streight by us and we didn't even know. Bungie just kicked about 100 really loyal and exiting fans right in the teeth...

  • 06.30.2011 1:07 PM PDT

I don't know what to think....

I can't imagine that Bungie would just relist it and leave us hanging like that. I really hope it's just a glitch.

It would sure be nice if they would keep us a bit more informed though.

  • 06.30.2011 1:12 PM PDT


This is absolute chaos. I think it's an amazon glitch b/c those products in the shop are sold on amazon. Probably miscommunications, if anything I feel bad for Bungie right
now.

Still not working for me either, once in amazon proceeding to the checkout it says there's 0 stocks >_>

" We're sorry. The quantity you requested is no longer available. The number to the right is the maximum quantity currently available. "

Bungie should at least tweet something, some of us have been waiting for hours!

The other thing is that the new listing has no title, that seems rather odd.

Man, I just hope it's a glitch......

  • 06.30.2011 1:15 PM PDT

I feel exceptionally sorry for those who ordered one then cancelled through fear of it being a fake. Bad move on Bungie's part, and yet we're still waiting on official confirmation....

  • 06.30.2011 1:17 PM PDT

I hope its a glitch cuz I ordered one. Also I doubt its a hack b/c you'd have to hack amazon too. Thats really hard b/c it has some of the best internet security due to it being an online store. I think communications between the two went haywire when amazon tried to do repairs on its servers.

  • 06.30.2011 1:18 PM PDT

I wish Bungie would tell us SOMETHING!

  • 06.30.2011 1:19 PM PDT

Also taht halo 4 is from amazon b/c its 59.96, 3 cents cheaper than the store prices. If you look on amazon its selling halo 4 for 59.96, this has to be b/c of amazon.

  • 06.30.2011 1:20 PM PDT

it's beginning to sound more likely that the blame lies with Amazon and not with Bungie, still confirmation would be nice

  • 06.30.2011 1:21 PM PDT

It doesn't matter who the blame lies with. Bungie has a responsibility to their fans to give us even a minor update

  • 06.30.2011 1:23 PM PDT

Maybe amazon told bungie they coulnd't tell anyone b/c they didn't want their site to crash again. Just throwin ideas out b/c i have a feeling bungie is gonna be silent for a while.

A post from a forum ninja in the Official Bag O' Swag Thread:

Posted by: x Lord Revan x
Everyone should try and relax. Yes, it is a shame that something bad befell the bag 'o swag sales but, being that it was a limited item with high demand, people were bound to be unlucky. Could have it been handled better? I'm not one to say. The only thing I do know is that this company is amazing about doing things for their fans.

So, the best thing to remember now is that Bungie is a company hell bent on satisfying their community. And even though the bags o' swag may be gone, it doesn't mean that more fun things aren't on the way.

Following today's announcement of aerospace, we still have more inbound including a ViDoc and a Bungie Vs. The World matchmaking celebration. And, who knows, maybe something else is in the pipeline.

I understand how upset some of you are and even why some of you are disappointed/disgruntled, but I urge you to at least try and reconcile with the knowledge that other cool things are coming up (other cool thing are for sale too(with perhaps more in the works?)!) and that Bungie hasn't forgotten their fans. In fact, these few weeks are a celebration for the fans.


Seems the Gorilla Print thing was legit... *sigh* I'm still waiting on an official announcement though

  • 06.30.2011 1:27 PM PDT

Agreed. Some sort of alleviation would be nice.
Has anyone posting here actually chanced it and purchased one of the unconfirmed Bags OF Swag?
