I would say I am one of the most successful trolls in Bungie.net history.

After reading up on Bungie's latest project I found myself here looking for answers and I believe I might have found some.

Judging by what has been said thus far I'm going to guess that Bungie is creating a game that will link PC, Playstation, and Xbox gamers in a very Shadowrun fashion. I'm not sure if the game will be a cross platform multiplayer experience or not. I know that PS3, MAC, and PC gamers can all play against one another but Xbox can't. If I had to guess I'd say it won't be.

I believe that will we see 3 "clans" in Destiny and that players will have the choice to join who they want. I know Bungie has denied Destiny being an MMO but what I'm thinking wouldn't be an MMO.

Destiny is going to use this site as it's main hub for all players. This will provide Bungie with the means to add to the story of the game, show the different "clan stats", and keep everyone informed on who is winning the fight. I think we will see Bungie do what they do best and that will get the community stirred up.

I also think Destiny will allow you to customize your player in an RPG fashion but will remain a true to the FPS genre. I'm not sure about weapons but I do expect Shadowrun style gameplay as far as equipment goes.


All in all I predict that Destiny will feature a universe divided into three groups/clans. I believe we will have to pick a side and fight for our portion of the universe.

What do you guys think? I'm not sure about anyone else but I'm starting to get a little stir crazy waiting on details for the new IP.

I think it might end up doing something similar to EVE Online and Dust 514. It's an awesome concept but not much implementation past what CCP are doing.

Redefine genres?

I think yes.

Helping out the 7th column community with reasonable posts since '07.

PS3, and PC/Mac can't play with each other, only CS:GO was rumored for it.

I highly doubt that cross platform gaming will be a reality for this game. However, that idea may come true in the future for other titles. I expect Destiny to be the game that bungie was trying to make Halo into. What I mean by this is that bungie was becoming creatively constrained when because they were still creating halo games. They wanted to create something new that contained fresh ideas and creativity, but they simply could not push their bounderies without breaking what halo was. I think it is a good thing that they have shifted to a new game because they were starting to change halo too much. I expect Destiny to be a more realistic shooter than halo because of the modifications to REACH that we have seen; sprint, etc. I expect faster gameplay with a grander scale and, most importantlyl, a genre redefining experience.

It's not rumored, its been confirmed by Valve several times that PS3 players will be able to play with PC and Mac players.

Valve has already implemented cross-platform play with last year's Portal 2 between PS3 and PC users.

you know i like where you are getting at, but how do you divide them and at the same time have them play with each other. And not make territories xbox only or ps3 only.

Thinking of adding to my list of articles, wonder if you think it is worth adding or not.

That's up to you. This is just my own speculation thus far. The more I read about destiny the more I believe I'm half assed right. Have you taken a look at the new shirts Bungie is wearing? That's kinda what got me thinking about them allowing us to select our side.

Well most of us have already accepted it to be faction based, and some of the articles inside already talk about it, i think we are really past that point now. We even have somewhat a basis of a map. Look at the vids and you shall see the map that we got.

I think it'll be a open world game
