In addition, if you go to your local Krispy Kreme and talk like a Pirate, they will give you a free donut. Dress as a Pirate and they give you a dozen free.

Really? If only there was a nearby Krispy Kreme.

I think they are more excited for us to see and play what they have been working on. BUT I think they have probably dropped a lot of subtle hints and teases in things like the Mail Sack, and they probably do enjoy seeing what they can get away with.

I would love to hear more about the Great Dave Uprising of 2012 after the game comes out.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

If it makes you feel any better, even Bungie employees don't know all the answers about what's happening in the studio. For example, I have no idea why a man dressed as a pirate just delivered donuts to the engineers in the pod next to mine.
It's the 10th anniversary of International Talk Like a Pirate Day today.

I'm disappointed in you.

Interesting.....my krispy Kreme already gives me a free donut I don't even have to say anything. My Krispy Kreme brings all the fatty's to the yard And I'm like It's better than yours, Damn right it's better than yours. *Starts dancing.*

Hey I am a big Bungie fan ever since I played Halo 2. I love the series, I love Bungie. I have made a few Bungie logos in my metal shop.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

That's no pizza.

From the Mailsacks it seems like the employees are just as excited to share their work as we are to see it for the first time.

That is NOT related to the game, so we don't count it. -.-

You look around.You fire your weapon before you realize.
Its just me. I fall and you walk up. You cry why.
When i pop up. You look at me in wonder. I say,"ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL."
You bend to my will and go to a cliff, walk off, and fall.
The last thing you hear is me stating as fact,"All will fail the battle of life, you just went early"

I would.

I was just curious. They have a new game which we don't know much about, I just wonder if any of you Bungie guys have fun watching us go around in circles. We already know Urk does.

Just wanted my curiosity to stir for a bit.


They have been enjoying teasing the community for as long as I've been a member, back in the Halo 1 days while we all anxiously awaited any breath of information or clues for Halo 2.

As time goes on, I think it'll actually start to pick up again, too. :)

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Confirmed: Pirates in Destiny and interstellar doughnuts are currency and form of sustenance.

Filipino pirates to be exact.

Today intermittent waves of clapping kept occurring.
I'm sure they they can be attributed by an appropriate catalyst.
And of course the rapid, and also terrifying rate of escalation and one-upsmanship in the Photoshopping of fellow employees email threads.

There.

Wait one moment here, are you saying that not everyone knows about "Destiny" at the studio? If this darkness was supposed to be a time where everyone gets together and works on the game like crazy then how is that possible? I hope you guys have actually been working on something. I would actually laugh so hard if nothing was done because I think that this community would get so raged; a riot would start outside Bungie studios. I hope this game comes out of the PC. I am getting a very expensive PC to play games on and I am looking forward to playing that game on my PC when I get it. Of course I realize that you guys have been doing lots of work but I hope everyone is working as hard as they can for this one.

Talk like a Pirate day is a real thing? How have i never heard this?
It's quite exciting news!

Real life? What is that?
Graphics are good, gameplay sucks. Overhyped IMO.

I don't want to help you. I'm sorry. =(

Seriously.. We don't know jack -blam!- about this game. I found Halo Two when I was 12, and I began a videogame hiatus after Reach. I'm 17 now and a freshman in community college. Will I have time for videogames next year when I move to New York City? I dunno. I appreciate the building up of suspense, but I can't be the only gamer who Bungie is about to lose.

"You dead yet? No? You will be!"

"How you like them pears? Guess what I mean by pears."

"I'm gonna rip off his partridge and kick him in the pear tree!"

Well who doesn't enjoy teasing others?
