According to "trademarkia", the Bungie Aerospace trademark is currently "abandoned" and has been since April 30th. What do you think this means? Is this an error or has Bungie abandoned the initiative?

I know DeeJ said there will be more games coming out through Bungie Aerospace in Mail Sack 2 but this seems to suggest otherwise.

I felt very let down while reading that. Say it ain't so Bungie, say it ain't so!

I hope not, Aerospace seems quite promising, it just need to get more games out.

I doubt that they would abandon it. Its not like Bungie to quit a project that was already started.

They probably have a lot of other things like their newest project that they are busy with, too.

Sometimes you do have to abandon a project. It's not smart to always continue even if it's not looking too great.

Also, they have quit projects before. Project Phoenix is one example of that.

I don't believe the initiative for Aerospace was abandoned, perhaps they're just changing the name?

Stupidity, when sufficiently advanced, is indistinguishable from magic

Is this the sort of thing that could have been overlooked without intention? I have no idea about such things.

Usually the trademark filing would change instead of filing for an entirely new one, wouldn't it?

Lies until confirmed by an employee, if this was true Bungie would have told the community.

I sincerely hope not. I was under the impression that there were still games in development, and I was not aware of there being any issues. It seems odd that it would just be abandoned, without any notification.

I don't think it's right to start screaming "lies". If it is nothing, it's probably a miss communication or Bungie forgetting to regularly update it. I don't think anyone is "lying" here.

Also, if this were true, Bungie would have to prepare a statement as to why they're abandoning the initiative. They wouldn't just come out and say "Hey guiz, it's finished." They would most likely give us a PR friendly article talking about why they've decided they're not continuing with it.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Notice how the Aerospace Logo has changed on Bungie shirts

Maybe they altered the Logo.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

Hard to guess without knowing. Looks like the trademark was abandoned for failure to file a statement of use, which is a super-simple filing that shows the trademark being used in a commercial application. It should be no problem to keep the trademark alive.

Remember, at the same time though, that simply abandoning the trademark is not the same as abandoning the project. Like SK15 noted, they might be changing the logo, no longer using a logo, or otherwise.

So.... that's the long way of saying, I have no idea :-D

This would be a great Mail sack question if this doesn't get answered before Monday.

Thanks for the insight, Foman. It does make me feel a little better to hear it doesn't necessarily point to them abandoning the project. :D

Thank god we have a lawyer to tell us in a very complicated way that he "doesn't know". :P

OT: If the project IS abandoned, I would imagine it would be because of a lack of interest in Crimson and the extremely not-so-lucrative business of publishing free games.

There was also a job position relating to Bungie Aerospace up until recently.

Maybe it is scrapped due to lack of interest or funding? Maybe somewhere in the contract with Activision it prohibits this?

Who knows, it would be nice to get an official answer soon.

I wonder if Bungie is able to clarify.
