Subject: I notice something...

Halo 3 Longshore playable on Team Fortress 2 vids

Because of the leaked concept arts of Destiny, the "moon" isn't really the moon, it's an alien space ship. But if you compare that image to any other image before the leaks, it's a septagon. Look closely to those advertisement or even the news update.

Are we the Aliens? Are we invading our own planets?

no silly. The aliens r trying to invade our planet, not us trying to invade our own planet.

I noticed something too.

The Destiny symbol is the 7th column with 3 spokes removed.

Is this Bungie finally recognising that only employees, master ninjas, ninjas and mythic members matter?

In Destiny, we play as the Seventh Column.


We play as ourselves.

I've been playing Halo since 2002. My earliest memories include hiding at the shotgun window on Damnation and killing my dad with grenades while playing co-op on Pillar of Autumn.

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

It's amazing how many different people tend to see so many different things when looking at concept art. It shows both the talent of the artist and the imagination(s) of the audience.

Me? I look at the beautiful snow-set work and unlike others, I am not looking at the bipeds or the multi-ped artillery. I see the sphere that is taking point in this squad and I wonder if we have us a Toclafane?

See? Same picture, wonderful work and what does my mind focus on? A floating ball that may slice and dice.

What caught my attention from that picture were the guns. They reminded me of Halo weapons. The gun the "soldier" at the right is carrying looks an awful a lot like an assault rifle, and the other "soldier" to the far right looks like he is carrying a beam rifle.

That's what I am amazed and so impressed by. Good concept art is so much shadow and suggestion that the viewer can't help but recognize things "they see" but that aren't necessarily put there by the artist. It's a remarkable thing and the effect it has on each different viewer is... mindblowing.

This. I immediately thought Skyrim when I saw the closest "soldier", what with the "horns" on the helmet and the fur on the back of his cloak. It's one of those things where people see what they want to see. It's what makes concept art all the more interesting.

I was drawn first to the mobile artillery. I'm a big fan of vehicles, so I'm wondering what kind of vehicle(or mount if its an animal?) this is and if we will be able to drive it. I was drawn next to the environment. It already seems like it is going to make an enjoyable level to play in. And is it safe to assume we are looking at alien invaders, or could they be humans?

Also, didn't anyone happen to notice that there's destiny symbol on the soldier's shoulder pad? It's almost like they were following their own destiny. A future war perhaps?

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.
Dear Politician, Define sagacity,
All chances of survival are beginning to diminish.
Comedy is no excuse for our own blasphemies.
Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

It'd be awesome if we played as a group called the Seventh Column.

That's interesting. I didn't notice it. But now that you point it out, I wonder what it means. I was sort of assuming that they are going to be the antagonists, but why would the games logo be associated with the bad guys?

And I finally figured out what was bothering about the picture. They really remind me of Tusken Raiders, except in the snow.

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 can't wait to see in-game assets. Concept art is just that, concepts. The concepts can be totally different from the actually in-game stuff.

So I await the first screenshots, first gameplay trailer.

For now I would settle for a reveal trailer.

The ball is "our protector". I don't think it's the alien forces we are killing.

As a Star Wars nerd I can say that snowy futuristic Tusken Raiders = swesome

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.” – Psalms 46:1-3

I support this message.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

So far its the only theory that makes any sense.

I did notice that. But it is with out the "protector" over the symbol. Also in one of the concept art pictures. the planet/spaceship appears to be falling onto the city. The sphere seems to have peices falling from it.
