Jesus christ it's so damn beautiful in that shot with the windmills. The lighting seems utterly fantastic, I've always loved that style. If the landscapes stay at least similar to what we've seen I would friggin' love it. I love that sci-fi open somewhat empty landscape with slight dabs of architecture and some mountainy terrain. That little part though where they created a mountainous region on a map with a simple brush, like I've seen some community brushes like that for different game engines like source or Unity but like hot damn, the detail on those mountains with just one click is RIDICULOUS.

Sorry I'm just amazed at that end of the video. As you can tell, I is excite.

Any other interesting bits I might have missed regarding the new game?

Nice find, but doesn't seem to talk much about development, more on it's existence and story.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

Of course it doesn't. The game hasn't even been announced and there's very limited information on it.

So yeah, call me late to the party, w/e. I just want to confirm, we're calling their next game Destiny? Is that a code name?

It's not really its engine. More like 3D models of whats to come.

Yeah, Its just hints and activity that bungie has done that has to do with destiny, such as copyrighting a couple names that will likley be in the game, etc...

No the codename is "Tiger". The actual name of the game is "Destiny"

So far, it seems that the official codename for the game is 'Tiger' and the official name is 'Destiny'.

NOW, what I wanna know is on the kink I put out there, it says that of course Destiny is the title of the game, but that Bungie also copyrighted "Be Brave". Whatever that may be, possibly an important quote or something.

My assumption that "Be Brave." is the motto for the game. Wouldn't be surprised if it is at the centre of ad campaigns before the game's released.

To make the mountains and what you saw of the time-lapse development of that windmill environment were short showcases of the engine and how it works. The mountains were made with the map editor, if not some other crazy new invention and addition to the game industry they came up with (which quite frankly isn't exactly out of the realm of possibility). It's how they make the maps and so far it's looking' QUITE ridiculous.

Oh that would be SO sexy. Give the PC and Mac versions (if it actually gets ported eventually *crosses fingers*) an editor for the game that you can run through on your own seeing as this game is NEARLY confirmed to be an MMO, the editor could perhaps allow players to explore and experience some new environments, stories and battles that the player can create and play on their own. Perhaps the community can get quite smart and build some sort of on-the-side multiplayer servers for custom made games that can actually be played with multiple people but that would also involve some good .NET programming on the part of the community if such a thing were to happen.

I think I'm getting a bit ahead of myself.
