Destiny Awaits ◑·

See you Starside

So today on the Bungie Day posted my deef, we get our first glimpse at "Particles". Now it didn't take long for me to figure out that these are in deed new numbers. In fact the particles shown are 1-7 for, you guessed it, the 7 ticket holders. Now my real question is what purpose do these numbers or particles serve exactly? If used in Bungie's next IP what purpose could they serve? Money perhaps? Buying things in game? Please discuss these "particles" or numbers.

Swag punks, fu­­ck off!

I can't think of anything they can be, my only guess would probably be the name of the game in a weird alien language or something.

I don't see how they can be deciphered as 1-7. but i suppose its not impossible, if it is indeed a new language.

I'm guessing they are letters in some sort of dot based language. And that these specific symbols, put together, spell out DESTINY.

If my assumption is correct, I'd further guess that Destiny is a name, a name of something that is a big part of the game's universe.

But I'm completely guessing, and probably wrong.

Open them in order in tabs and Ctrl+TAB to scroll through them. There is a small difference between them (2-4 dots).

Quick as a razor, sharp as a bullet.

I thought these had been deciphered, then I realised some of the points had been moved in the solution thread.


Any reason why you're calling them 'particles'?

They very well could be numbers, but I'm just gonna play devil's advocate and say that maybe Bungie just decided to organize them that way. It serves a very easy organizational purpose, similar to how when you upload pictures from a camera to your computer they're numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.

This, they didn't even name any of the new logos we've seen. Instead opting to call them 'Bungiedayav1', possibly to avoid crazed speculation.

I've done some work to put these photos into this animated GIF file. I can definitely see where you are going; it's almost like a zipper effect, and the GIF really helps me see it. Hope it helps you guys as well.

Thanks for proving to everyone these were numbers. Probably should have added that to my topic.

Spread the love...

Not sure if this will help but I made an animation of the numbers 1-7.
