i absolutely love the halo backstory / universe and the music. I also liked the games, but felt, that it was meant to be something bigger that got cut down by MS.
Dunno, maybe it would always have ended up like it did.

But as long as i dont even get to play Halo3 on PC i couldnt care less about a new IP from them, especially when they are partnering with the devil Very Happy

Bungie's new game is an MMO, the studio confirmed at GDC 2011 today.

Bungie lead network engineer David Aldrige told a seminar crowd the news whilst discussing netcode in a presentation titled: 'I Shot You First: Networking the Gameplay of Halo: Reach'.

According to IGN, Aldridge referred to the project as a "massively multiplayer action game".

Although other details were thin on the ground, Aldridge debunked a rumour that the title would resemble "WoW in space".

The title is part of an all-new franchise, which Activision plans to exclusively publish as part of a ten-year deal.

The first hint that Bungie's next project would be an MMO came in October last year and the rumour was strengthened in February of this year via a reportedly disgruntled ex-Bungie employee.

An MMO doesn't lend itself very well to the kind of epic and emotional storytelling we've seen Bungie do before.

Quote:
MMO's are not about the story, and Bungie's work is story-driven, which earned them acclaim.

What is all drama about? Blizzard started its Warcraft strategy games small and evolved them into the monster that is World of WarCraft. They never lost any of their story telling prowess either - if anything it got better.

Because it was speculated and rumored for months that it's an MMO and apparently he tried to make a joke. Though they don't say it's not an MMO, only that it wasn't an official statement, just a joke for those that were speculating it is.

If it makes any sense.

They also seem to have signed a 100m deal with Netease about creating a new IP or something.

Guess when there is no soul left to sell, the devil just offers cash ^^

Destiny 2 is currently the main game I play. At least until TD2 (if it's going to be good) is released. So yeah, I'm excited about these news and hope it will be beneficial to D2.

bungie is a good example of people who made a semi good game franchise and then started to think they where infallable and dev gods cause of retarded fanboys... while in fact they are full of shit and their latest game where pure ass

the whole upper management of bungie is filled with people who think they are the shit and whatever comes out of their mouths is right, well yes smelly steamy diariia

they must have felt right at home at blizzard in the beginning wich has the same kind of people there nowadays, but then realized, shit were not the only gods anymore rofl

i wish there was a video of the company meeting where they were told destiny 2 would be announced as free to play game right after the cornflakes announcement as a side announcement right before the start of the con ..... sweet karma

i bet u this is the reason they left, they felt so insulted in their infallable god status that they where just a free prop and got 30 seconds rushed airtime at blizcon , they have no clue what they gonna do but they just wanted to leave cause of that lol

Well I can see his point, even if he's a fucking twat. But if disney absorbing fox wasn't an issue, microsoft getting activision after bethesda probably won't be too.

Also, reeeesetera "jase" is probably sweating after seeing the acquisitions and thinking less and less tripleayyyy derpelopers will be willing to speak with him for his "major scoops".
