In case you haven't been following Destiny

Since its new to me it could be new to others as well. Some Destiny tidbits.

___

Welcome to the Frontier

Our civilization once spanned the solar system. Its ruins are still out there: buried in the dunes of Mars, hidden in the jungles of Venus, lost in a wild and abandoned Earth. For centuries we've huddled under the safety of the Traveler, protected from our enemies. Now, a new era has begun, and the only hope for our future lies in unlocking the greatest mysteries of our past.

The Traveler

Everything changed with the arrival of the Traveler. Long ago, it breathed new life into our system and began our Golden Age. But it did not last. Something hit us. Knocked us down. Tried to stamp us out. No one knows exactly what, but we do know this: very few of us survived, and those who did owe their lives to the Traveler.

The City

In our darkest days, Humans, Exos, and Awoken found the Traveler where it made its last stand, low above Earth, silent and immobile. We built this City our last within its protective shields, fighting countless wars to keep its peace. From that dark age, the Guardians of the City were born.

The Frontier

Abandonded Earth

• The wilderness beyond the walls of the City are ruined and corrupted, claimed by nature and our enemies. From the war-torn fortresses of the Twilight Gap to the skyward steppes of Old Russia, evidence of our lost glory still litters the Earth, waiting to be rediscovered.

Destroyed Moon

• Early exploration attempts have proven too dangerous. The City has since classified Earth's Moon as a Forbidden Zone.

Mars

• Awaiting reports from the Vanguard.

Venus

• Awaiting reports from the Vanguard.

The online implementation of this game frankly turned me off. I just got my fill of shooters online, but I hope it's a great game, and I'm sure it will be.

they reason Im not paying attention to this game is because they are too serious with it, they are acting like its going to be the best shit ever and everyone should put $$ on it.

I was paying attention at first, but their way of trying to make this game look hugely important turned me off.

I want to see some gameplay already.

Don't follow density for one clear reason no PC version.

Don't really have plans really play my 360 unless i truly have to and then still don't want to

Why would you not want your devlopers going into building something with a negtive mindset. You want them with the best positive mindset and tossing their dreams at it

All I've heard so far sounds amazing, but honestly I could have heard nothing except "Developed by Bungie", and I'd think the same thing.

I'm sure it'll show up on PC along with the next-gen versions of the game, but if not, it might be reason enough to buy the next Xbox.

It's not online in the sense that it's like CoD, or your typical MMO.

In fact, with the info they've given us, it seems you don't even have to interact with other players.

The whole reason it's "online" is simply so that Bungie can give the player an ever-changing world. One where, at any moment, randomly-triggered events can occur without warning that greatly influence how the player goes about considering their next move.

If it's like a shooter take on the online stuff in Demon's Souls/Dark SOuls I'm down. Bungie to me is better when they are working with MP. In solo? they are mostly hot garbage. jg4xchamp

why is that? MS didn't do nothing but told them shit to do and turned a expansion pack into full retail because they wanted money

Bungie with Activision owns the IP and has 100% all control  what happens in the game. Even though i can see some dumb ass big wig say"You know what would be cool is bla bla bla." They would toss it in there 

We haven't really seen a whole lot of Destiny and from what I've heard it just sounds like a combination between an FPS MMO and Borderlands. All of the hype for it is because it's Bungie, whom I've never really been that impressed with (I haven't found Halo to be anything special). 

If Bungie get their heads out of their own asses and actually attempt to make it unique then it could be pretty good.

If they just follow what's been done already or it's too much like Halo everyone will complain. It must be pretty decent though if they envision such a long lifecycle for it

Hope it's launch title for PS4... if yes will be getting it!

So sick of hearing about meaningless lore. It's a game, all I care about is gameplay.Miketheman83

This game is gonna be sooooo freakin awesome.... Believe. :D

It's Bungie, so it's gonna be awesome.

It's a Bungie game, so it will be great. I'm just skeptical about the fact this (massive) game will also come to current gen platforms! I think it should be exclusive to PS4, Xbox3 and PC, with 'no restrictions'.

I am getting it day one for the PS4 or Infinity. I will wait to see the online details for both systems and to see if one version is better than the other.

LOL at the guy who said Microsoft told Bungie what to do this whole time. Are you saying Microsoft makes people make some of the highest rated, best selling games of all time? Cows? Are you gonna stand for that?

As much shit that Bungle have been talking without showing any gameplay is pretty crazy though. This game better be amazing.

I wouldn't miss out on a great game because the creator/creators took it too seriously.

[QUOTE="Nengo_Flow"][QUOTE="R3FURBISHED"] Its Bungie thats how they are. This sh1t is serious to them - every game they make is the most important endeavor the world has ever witnessed.

It's Bungie, a company who'd have otherwise given all the content they released for Halo for free, and wanted to make ODST expansion priced, had it not been for Microsoft. I understand they work for Activision now, but if they have full control over their IP's development, then Activision shouldn't be able to force them to keep making $15 expansion DLC packs every two months.

On top of that, Bungie is very, very much in touch with their community. Aside from Valve, I'd be willing to bet Bungie maintains the greatest community involvement of any large dev team. I sincerely doubt Bungie wants to do anything that their fans don't want.

They need to show some GD gameplay already.

Very late response, but its an important one.

Destiny is not a MMO. Bungie wanted that be known, its a persistent world with a "seamless" (thier phrase not mine) multiplayer integration. Supposedly the multiplayer element is such that you can just find yourself in the multiplayer without ever realizing it. It will just happen.
