Would you consider this to be an accurate depiction of the Bungie.net community? If not, would the esteemed panel present us with a more accurate photo of how they see the Bungie community?

I changed usernames to match my gamertag. My original account, wambo114, was created when I got xbox live. I'm a 2007 kid really!

Any hints about the mysterious "last halo 3 easter egg" that has been mentioned in previous mail sacks?

Does the Bungie staff celebrate any other studio-created holidays? Excluding Bungie day.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

I ask you once more to begin the weary trek to the Ivory Tower, risking life, limb, and hearing against the uncensored brilliance of Marty's music, to ask him one simple thing: how soon did he mean by soon?

We're pretty sure at the army that "soon" could mean anything. Hell, we're still owed a Humpday against Bungie, and that was when there was a waaaahmbulance still wheeling about. (I'll willingly wait for your newest game to be released before that humpday is cashed in, by the way)

What are you most eager to show to the community about Destiny? the soundtrack? The art? a cryptic ARG?

Rev.6-8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Are those "Ancient engines" that are/were rumbling in the deep still going? When could we expect to see that "single strand of light", soon, later, not anytime soon, or not in the foreseeable future? (We sure could use some comfort Bungie; we're just meandering around hopelessly blind and bummping into one anouther without you. Like we need momma bird to bring us a worm back to the nest).

Since Bungie is located in Washington, specifically in close proximity to Seattle, do any employees enjoy listening to Washington's own Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and/or Soundgarden?

If yes, what are some studio favorites? You know, the songs that are played with the volume turned up.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

Sweet. I am actually able to post in one of these.


1. Do you guys feel limited by the current optical media that systems use?

2. Why does Achronos have such a man crush on me? It is borderline creepy.

3. I am pretty sure this one will get passed over. What are your general feelings on used games and the practice of online passes to discourage their sales?

4. Are you guys looking forward to using Steam as a way to distribute your content?

5. I am a big fan of Kickstarter. Are you guys possibly looking into using that to fund a small project?

6. Can you give Wolfson, and Bakken a high five for me? Firefight and rendered vids are two of the greatest things you guys have come up with.

7. Are you going to make a mailsack that tackles some of the hot button issues or new things coming out of the gaming industry?

Is there anybody from Kansas working with you? If so, can you tell them I said hi? What did they think of KU basketball against Kentucky? If not, then go get some!

Can we get a video of one of you guys trying to balance a broom stick on your hand while singing the ABCs backwards?

Can we get a new video of you guys doing something? (It does not have to be related to work)

If you had access to a time machine, and you could only use it once (To time, and back to this time) where and when would you go?

Who said you were dead?

When do you guys actually read these questions and answer them?

Would you support the Honorable Members making a group against the Mythics?

Can Marty answer some questions this week or is he busy making music?

How many questions can I ask until you kick me out?

With your huge drive for new talent to work for Bungie, what % of Bungie Studio's do you think have only worked on the new IP?
