Subject: How much longer do you think Bungie will be dark?

I'll buy Destiny, no matter what it is. My friend claimed that Bungie will be dark forever because of them no longer having control of Halo. It's like some people think Halo made itself-_-

I would guess another 5 or 6 months at most.

Great Scott!

"See you in 2013".

I'll come back in 2014, just in case.

The longer it goes the more I think this is a contractual thing they signed off with Microsoft i.e. they weren't allowed to show Destiny anywhere until Halo 4 had been out for six months.

forever

bungie actually disbanded and bought an island in the south pacific years ago. no new game.


Mmm that actually makes a lot of sense. Did you hear about Sandy Island near New Caledonia? I think it was them who made it dissapear.

Rain, and Jazz.
Halo: Tactical

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

2013 will happen in ~1.3 months.

I'm going for 4-6.

Ask any question. I'll help with anything on site or off.

I'm hoping 1-3 months...

I think they will break silence at the VGA's.



No they won't. There is proof they won't reveal anything at the VGA. The game might not even come out until 2014. Games get delayed all the time especially when it's a new IP.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Soon (TM). That's going to be the best guess for some time.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

They can't be staying Dark for over a year because they said "See you in 2013" due to the contract being released.

I recall a Bungie Employee once saying that the only reason why a game would be delayed is if it can't pass the certification process or if it can't compete with other games being released around the time your game is coming out. It's possible, but seems very unlikely.

What's your proof that they won't reveal anything at the VGAs? I know that DeeJ had confirmed that Bungie wouldn't reveal anything at E3 2012, but I don't recall him saying anything about the VGAs.

Definitely within three months.

I'm pretty sure Bungie closed up the shop.

There is now one person sitting in an abandonded office, drunk and highly vindictive, toying with this so called "community."
I actually went and visited Bungie real quick today as I was in the area. Jerome seemed neither drunk nor vindictive, and he actually waved to me, and I waved back.
Blasphemy. Jerome would never break his intimidating stature on the job.

OT: The VGA's are a possibility, but I wouldn't bet on it. I think by the end of February we'll have something. E3 is far too late to reveal a AAA game and have adequate marketing time and media coverage, especially for a new, unproven IP.

My name is Mark Mezzetta and I was a beta tester for Bungie's game Oni and Take Two's game Myth 3: The Wolf Age.

Speaking of February, Activision has a conference call early Feb. where the last two years they spoke about Bungie's new game, so hopefully we will hear something by then. ;)

I think it highly likely we will hear something at the VGAs, and that Bungie will start 2013 strongly. They need to get back on the map, having faded into obscurity post-Halo, and get people talking.

  • 11.25.2012 12:52 PM PDT

1-3 months; I'm an optimist.

These were my thoughts exactly.

I don't see this happen a lot - when a company is making a new IP, they become this obscure.

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.

I also have some hope for the VGAs, why wouldn't they be there?

Per Audacia Ad Astra!

They'll stay dark as long as their main project "Destiny" isn't fully ready for us ! After Halo 2 Opening mission fiasco they can't make the same mistake (promise stuff and do nothing).

  • 11.25.2012 2:01 PM PDT

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.

No more than 3 months I reckon.

Also why make 1+ Year an option? The full game will be out by then.

As people have mentioned, delays. Most are expecting Destiny to be on of the starting games for the "720" (I hate the name, hence the quotes), so if the next Xbox won't be out in 2013, I can't see Destiny as such.

  • 11.25.2012 2:14 PM PDT

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

I just thought of something. What if employees voted in the poll with the real answer, we would never know. So evil.

Anyways, I'm saying 1-3 months. Sometime in the new year I'm guessing, as a gift to us, a new year brings new things.

But possibly could be at the VGA's, though I doubt it. Only around 2 weeks to find out though, VGA's are on December 7th.

  • 11.25.2012 2:39 PM PDT

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

Soon. I hope. I heard that they were also working on a Bungie theme park.

You all have it wrong. This is the game. It's called "Last Man Standing". Except for the employees, the last remaining member wins. Slowly but surely members will leave or go crazy. If you go crazy, moderator's will have to ban you because you are disruptive to the forums. So you are gone anyway.

If you stay and are the last man standing, you are crazy anyway. Why? Because why would you be on a forum that nobody posted in except you? What are you going to do, post a thread and reply to yourself? That would be crazy.
