FWC is my favorite design.

I want to get the shirt, but I'm nervous that it might turn out to be a faction of medics, bureaucrats, or something equally awful.

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

Threw this together real quick.

Thought it would be nice to have all the factions with their names so people can learn them a bit easier

Thank you! But how do we know FWC stands for Future War Cult?

Er, good point. People just seem to be calling that everywhere. I've still got the .psd file so I can always change it.

My DeviantArt Gallery - For my Photoshop stuff, go have a look!

I like the FWC design best for its design and color scheme. Since that's all I have to go on...

Surprised this isn't a poll thread.

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

I like the insignias of Dead Orbit and New Monarchy the most.

How dare you brother! Its all about the Seven Seraphs!
~TGW
Ok, Seven Serahphs is pretty sweet too ;) . Osiris just isn't as cool as the others though, and the FWC logo looks like it belongs to a fast-food chain.

Oh btw, where have these faction names emerged from? I remember "Dead Orbit" was trademarked by Bungie a while ago, but what about the others?

Edit: Nevermind, see here.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

I dunno yet. Hard to pick one using just their names.

  • 07.07.2012 5:09 AM PDT

I have commitment issues about things I know nothing about. So I went for my favourite looking one.

There's no way Nate Hawbaker's favorite hero is Alan Stuart


ALAN IS A BEAUTIFUL MAN!

Dead Orbit has a nice ring to it. Chosen :)

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Hmmm . . . I wonder which one I'll choose . . .

(Hint: Look at my avatar)

Anyways, 7 Seraphs sounds the coolest so far. Let's just hope they're not a terrorist organization or something.

  • 07.07.2012 6:49 AM PDT

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

I like the sound of the New Monarchy, but Dead Orbit looks cooler.

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

I work for the Department of Defense.

I won't just blindly pick one. I need to know what they represent first.

Things like factions / alliances should be taken seriously in gaming, I know not everyone follows that, but I consider it a big decision that is a personal reflection of my character.

  • 07.07.2012 6:51 AM PDT

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

I would hate if I bought a shirt and I choose the evil side.

:'(

I wanna be the good guys

Yeah, that would suck pretty bad. But until then, you'd have a pretty cool T-Shirt.

In my opinion if it is so clear cut that there is such a thing as a "good side" and "evil side" then Bungie is doing it wrong >_>

Well whoever has the motives I agree with and has higher morals or wants the greater good without willing to hurt or kill innocent people.

We are saying what faction we think is the coolest despite not knowing anything about them but looking at the pretty symbols.

We have no idea what these guys stand for or their motives.

So we are also contemplating we could be buying a shirt that represents an evil cult or empire.

You know, Ken, it seems really shallow to judge a entire group based solely on their morals. The only factor you should take into consideration is how cool they are.

Any faction-choosing of current is just for fun. We are assuming (if not yet assure of) the fact that there will be 7 factions in Bungies next game that you WILL choose from and probably (and hopefully) not be allowed to change.

People seem to want to "enlist" early, which is fine, I just have no allegiance yet.

And for me, it's not even about good or evil. Some people can perceive entities as evil even if what they do is just. It'll all depend on if one of these factions has anything to do with Gaia or Nature for me. I know it clearly has a "space" feel, but if there is a faction that lives on some forested planet, I'm there.

I know there is no definitive good or evil, there is always a grey area.

People do the wrong things for the right reason all the time.

But I want to root for the people who want to do the right things for the right reasons. I think I need to understand their motives before I decide where my loyalties lie.
