Ha, thanks. I have a feeling I'll be wearing this avatar for awhile to come.
...they changed the formatting of the homepage and now it's horrible?
We'll see how you feel about that in 18 hours.

While the Halo games have always looked good they have never been the pinnacle of graphics. And this was coming from a first party company. Not sure how capable they will be at cross platform gaming much less trying their hand at the challenging environment of programming a PC game. I'm going to have to take a wait and see on this one when it comes to a PC version.

cant believe this is happening tomorrow! so hyped!
Yes. It's clearly made to be used on multiple devices like Polygon's site and as a result it suffers on desktops. Hate when sites do that.
Pages take longer to load, if you scroll over Forums on the menu tab, the subforums don't go away, all that was before available immediately at the top for navigation is now stashed under a menu, etc.

I think the game is going to be good, but don't think bungie is going to make another competitive arena shooter.
And I'm not gonna fall for bungie's marketing again. None of their games have lived up to the hype that they have set

Not sure why everyone is saying the site is running slow. Its running just fine for me.
Not even Halo 3?
Runs like shit in Chrome on my Mac

Hmmm, I'm using a Toshiba/Chrome runs just fine for me. Guess I'm just lucky I guess.
Tho I do agree with those saying the site is ugly. I'm not found of the style they're using.

Ah see there is your problem. It's a Mac. j/k
Oddly though I'm running Chrome on a PC and it's running fine for me.

I missed this post earlier, but this is a great idea and my guess too. If it is indeed an MMO, I wonder how they'll handle fast travel, because that is necessary for returning to the hub world.
The way the releases are structured though makes me think it won't be what everyone traditionally thinks of as an MMO, or even an MMO. I really just think that it will be like Borderlands with a TDU-style interaction system and a stimulus package for both co-op and competitive MP (Comet) as bigger releases alongside smaller content packs, etc.
Come to think of it, around BL2's release, when doing PR, Randy Pitchford was talking about him hearing that a big publisher was working on a "Borderlands-killer"... Maybe that's Destiny?

If the PS3 version is not gimped in terms of framerate, textures, etc, then PS3 for sure. Not having to pay for gold is a major plus for me.

10am PST is when the ViDoc goes live and the reveal happens. I'd assume the embargo will be lifted soon after that.
Oh god. It's the exact same thing, but like it's made in flash. I never asked for this.

This is shaping up to the be the exact opposite of the lackluster and disappointing Halo 4 reveal.
Hyped.
Hyped.
We are not sure, yet, but the court documents, which were leaked a while ago, stated a PC release for Destiny 2 in 2015, iirc.
Still hoping for a PC release, though.
Well...
Oh fuck yes.
Bust that info-load all over my face, Bungie!

Kind of feels strange that they are announcing a "reveal" of something they are already officially recognizing. I mean yeah of course it's no secret what it is, but still. You don't see Sony saying, "Tune in Wednesday for the reveal of the PlayStation 4!"
Destiny FB page, diaper icon hype.

I seriously can not get the image of a diaper out of my head. Its especially bad having used cloth diapers for all of my kids. (what with all their brands).
The Destiny to shit yourself.
Hmm. Competitive multiplayer. Guardians (possibly called Knights earlier?).
Then something about adventuring.
Hmm. Trying to connect slippery dots here.
EDIT and last post of the page of course...
My theory was:
- 2 (at least) fighting Human Races
- Alien invaders
- Protectors
- 1 more
But now that I'm thinking about it, there may just be 5 different human groups that were all at war and united when the invaders came. I'm curious as to the implications this has on the guns and vehicles. I wonder if they'll have comparable weapon designs with similar functions (BR/Carbine/Light Rifle, etc.) across factions.
