Hello people, Conor here and I’m checking out the Destiny Alpha Beta for Bungie’s upcoming game. Destiny is a first person shooter action adventure massively multiplayer online role playing game set in a mythical science fiction open world setting. (and breathe!). Destiny is developed by Bungie and published by Activision as part of a 10 year publishing deal. Destiny will be available for Playstation 4, Xbox One, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 on September 9th 2014 with Beta testing for anyone who pre-orders the game, which will commence on July 17th . The beta will launch first on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.
Destiny is set seven hundred years into the future in a post-apocalyptic setting following a prosperous period of exploration, peace and technological advancement known as the Golden Age. In a universe where humans have spread out and colonized planets in the Solar System, an event known as “the Collapse” saw the mysterious dissolution of these colonies, the end of the Gold...
Bungie - "Join our development team to see the new updates arriving with Destiny 2: The Final Shape. Releasing on June 4, 2024."
Amid ongoing anxiety within Bungie following layoffs last year, the studio is now preparing for another shakeup, this time on Marathon.
Talk about mismanaged Bungie is a studio of tremendous potential and have made some of the greatest shooters to date. Sony pushed them to just make another Destiny style game and consult on other studios live service games and are now getting thrown under a bus as the pivot away from predominantly gaas games is unfolding.
I'd love to see a world where Bungie can focus on telling great sci fi stories again away from a live service dungeon but we all know that's a pipe dream
Are you serious? Do you just talk out of your arse naturally, or did it take years of being a POS?
You normally get so offended by internet comments or did it take years of being soft
Yes I see your point mate, someone clearly didn’t read the article.
Specifically the bit:
“Notably, multiple sources at the time and since have shared that Sony has largely left the studio to sort out its own troubles and was not responsible for the layoffs, with CEO Pete Parsons taking responsibility.“
He’s just spouting nonsense
lol what so fucking hilarious is that you called him out so bad he projected him being offended onto you.
Its been well documented that Bungie's management has been more responsible for their shortfalls, even mentioned in said article that we are commenting on.
Its ok, just admit you didn't read the article.
I like how for some, it is never Bungie's fault. Microsoft, Activision, and now Sony - it is everyone else who is pushing Bungie to make all these bad decisions.
Thrown under the bus?
Are you joking? This is all Bungie, we all thought it was 100% Activision but it's clear the higher ups at Bungie don't have a clue how to run the studio and are more bothered about saving their own skin and the money that they rake in.
Sony gave them an extra $1.2 Billion to make sure that employees didn't leave and they didn't have to cut anyones jobs. Where did that money go because Bungie still cut peoples jobs and I bet you the higher management still kept a hold of their big fact paychecks and bonuses.
Sony invested poorly in this and the best thing they can do now is throw the old Bungie management out and take hold of the studio fully.
Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. Somebody at Bungie is the golden goose making great shooting mechanics, and the rest need to justify their paychecks.
This studio has had three owners and its never worked well with any of them....Management has issues
Worked very well for Microsoft. Microsoft’s mistake was letting Bungie go.
it worked so well with MS that they so wanted to be away from them they bought the company back. Only to do it again with activision-blizzard, and then sold to Sony...Sony shouldn't have bought them...Bungie hasnt been the same for a long time..
The legal battle for the acquisition of Activision Blizzard continues, with Microsoft countering one of the FTC's latest moves and the Judge delaying a relevant ruling.
Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.
MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.
Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.
Far too much writing in the article preview.
fixed it, thanks
Anyone have a free alpha key they don't need.. ???

Destiny Alpha Beta?
I don't think that means what you think it means...
Wow, glad to finally hear it from an actual player. This basically plays like Halo reskinned. The first enemies move exactly like Elites. The guns look like Halo. The controls feel like Halo. Just looking at it, they move in packs like the Covenant. Their weapons look like they perform the same, even the same sounds.
If anyone says they didn't get into Halo because they didn't like how it plays but loves this........ well, you know. It would be like Guerilla making a multipat game (killzone reskinned) and someone who ragged Killzone all these years all of a sudden love Guerillas new game.
