Oh boy, switching from 1st person and 3rd person mid game... Because that's ALWAYS worked out before...

I am still quite excited for this game, but I really would like to hear from a person outside of Bungie what the hell it is exactly and how you play it. So, I'll be waiting a few more weeks, I imagine!

@oursin_360: I swear I heard that, damn, well now my interest has reached an extreme low point. I thought they would be able to do it with Bungie accounts or something but whatever

@nightriff: Shit has been made up

My concern is just how PvP competitive multiplayer fits in.

I dont want to be offline for a night, and see my co op partners suddenly 10 levels higher cause they decided to play PvP

From my understanding, the game is basically next gen borderlands with higher player count?

E3 will hopefully explain a lot of what this game is about. I'm still under the impression that I will be able to play with my friends that own a XB1 where I have the PS4, is that in anyway true or am I just making shit up?

Microsoft and sony would never agree to that, but it COULD be done on a technical level.

Well if you're anything like me it's because we still haven't been introduced to one single character and only vaguely have they told us what the story's about. Something about how you're an alien protecting the Earth from other aliens?

Anyway because of all that the game comes across as kinda generic and lacking in personality. When you look at it all we see is a Halo-ish FPS game where you run around shooting dudes in the face. Oh and there's some MMO elements to it and a monster crab.

Halo Firefight: The Game, with a supposed $500 million dollar budget, and it still has canned animations from Halo all over the place.

How?

Glimmer sounds like molten glitter.

Also that cooldown ui is straight up borderlands.

Looks like they're taking the Journey approach to multiplayer. Slowly getting more interested in this

that whole journey style multiplayer where random people will spawn in for story missions is probably one of the most exciting things for me. really hope this game does super well and becomes a household name like call of duty.

EDIT: I'm aware now that I'm talking out my ass, thank you.
