I too am anticipating Bungie's next game. It was Halo that made me sit up and notice them as a development studio; however, it was the studio and not the games that made me stick around. (That isn't to say the games weren't fantastic)

Bungie has a way of creating mystery and excitement about their hallowed halls like no other game studio. The only compare I have is Pixar Animation studios, who have a similar mystique. This current radio silence from Bungie is fairly extraodinary (in duration) and I can't wait for the drip feed of infomation to start.

The weekly updates from Frankie were fantastic back in the Halo days, hopefully a spiritual successor will be created.

My old Halo 2 account is Devil brothers

Can't wait for it to be officially announced. I think I enjoy the hype leading up to the release of a game more than the game itself.

The Super Quick Version: Destiny will be a new hybrid genre with a single persistent universe that is cross platform, possibly cross generation and multi device enabled which mixes MMO, RPG, FPS & RTS elements.


FIXED:

The Super Quick Version: Destiny will be a CLUSTERF--K

I am very interested in seeing, speculating, hearing about bungie's new game. Loads of mystery that i think, if they do it right, will surpass even the Halo series. As for why there is so much halo chatter, i think it might be that folks want to hold on to the old (also very good) thing that bungie did until they are blown away by this new game and/or series. I can't wait to hear and see more on this future endeavor though!!

I doubt Activision would sign up a direct competitor to WoW by another developer in their stables. Doesn't seem like smart business if you ask me.

Totally agree and I've said it before I think it shows an example between on planet and transition to the stars as well. I'm guessing we're going to see real scale between FPS style on planet and RTS space/between planets.

Just a guess...

I'm surprised Bungie.net is full of Halo chatter and little to do with speculation on their new game IP.

What's with that?
It's because anyone that speaks of this is slaughtered for the harvest. Too bad for us, we all must have a died.

Regarding the concept art from the Bungie front page article and IGN Destiny article...

When you look at the concept art you can speculate a few things:

1. Player customisation, wide variety of helmets & armour
2. Teams/Factions (red vs. blue in one pic and also a red cape guy with emblem or leader insignia)
3. FPS weapons, long range, handgun, assault style
4. Vehicles such as mammoth style, tank style, spaceship style
5. Shields on the space ship so technology is paramount suggesting Sci-Fi obviously
6. Play spaces scale and LOD mechanics
7. Player abilities e.g. blue bubble shield thing
8. Ships have emblems as well, most likely faction/team based.
9. Tank image has a Destiny logo on the shoulder...alien enemies???
10. Possible squad or orders based game mechanics, the solider finger pointing suggests these actions.
11. Male and female characters.

Anyone else spot something interesting?

Did they insert an early in-game character model into one of the concept art pictures? In this picture I zoomed in on the guy in the bottom right and the model (holding the gun) seems to be different than the surrounding concept art but maybe it is just me.

Stretching it I know, but some of it just seems too 3D and developed to fit in with its surroundings. Zoomed in a little more?

Either way I think it gives a look on how a player might look. Even if I'm thinking it is just the art now, it shows how beautiful this game can look.

I am a penguin. Every day I boogie on down to the water, and eat fish. Once, while fishing in the deepest depths, I saw great Cthulhu... And he said to me "Shine, to thine own self be true. They can't tell you what to do once you've gone guru." Also, I should tell you, "slide".

If there are no cloaks in the final game to put on armor, I WILL BE SUPER DISAPPOINTED IN THE LACK OF CLOAKS.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.--Teddy Roosevelt

"Our story begins seven hundred years from now in the Last City on Earth, in a Solar System littered with the ruins of man's Golden Age. A massive, mysterious alien ship hangs overhead like a second Moon. No one knows where it came from or what it's here for, but only that it's our protector. Meanwhile, strange, alien monsters creep in from the edge of the universe, determined to take Earth and the Last City. We are young 'knights' tasked with defending the remains of humanity, discovering the source of these monsters and - eventually - overcoming it."

This sounds amazing!

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.” – Psalms 46:1-3

Lets break down the image.


Far Left Knight- Carrying what looks to be a weapon for Close quartered combat.

Knight second on the left- Carrying a sword of some sort.

Floating Orb- Seems to be a probe/sensor of some kind.


Massive mech like thing- Large Cannon Looks to Have AA rockets mounted as well as a rear gun. Knight on top of MEch looks to have a long range weapon.

Knight that is center parallel to mech- Looks to have an assault weapon of some kind.

All of the knights in the image seem to have some sort of protective suit, that provides oxygen, and maybe Speculation here, Protection from radiation.


Also, Looking at this image, something of this scale could now ay be on the Xbox 360, the hardware would not be able to support this.

I expect a Microsoft announcement of the release of The next Gen Xbox early 2013.

These are my opinions.

So very pumped!! Glad to see it's not a modern warfare game!

Aye, it's refreshing to have something new and different from the repetitiveness of the latest games.
