Took a flight down to see family in San Diego recently. 2049 is the perfect length for the SEA -> SAN flight, every time.
Separate Melee Actions, Sprint Turn Speed scalar, Expanded Sensitivity Options and ADS Sensitivity Options are on the menu!
Regarding accessibility, what other options would you like to see in the future? Always happy to relay the feedback to the team.
The Lucky Pants update is very very interesting. I wonder how much PVP damage it'll increase, if at all...
Damage bonus will be PvE only.
Where TWAB?
Appreciate the feedback on this. It's super valuable to know when we make these changes they are felt as impactful.
u must not have seen the season of dawn trailer. enjoy.
This trailer bring back memories of all of us watching different versions of it and quoting it out loud in the office before release. I would just randomly say "Time is broken on Mercury!"
Hard to believe it was one of the last trailers we released before work from home began.
Do Bungie help out with relocating people who want to apply from over seas?
Frequently, yep. Immigration is typically the bigger challenge/cost vs the raw relo $.
Trundle through that AMA, I can see that, to some extent Destiny is based on the old Halo engine.
If you're allowed to talk about it, what happened with the engine back during the Microsoft split? Did they get to keep a copy?
Yea, both 343 and Bungie evolved/adapted starting from the Halo: Reach engine. It's actually kind-of amazing getting to see two really talented teams make different choices of what to upgrade and how (of course game needs were different too). I would guess the two forks now share <10% of code (across client and tools - 0% on services).
Hey thanks for replying I took a look at the list as I'm about to graduate with a degree in software development and while I'm probably not the most qualified applicant there are other more qualified guardians that are probably wondering the same as me. Every job lists the Washington area but what is Bungie's current stance on remote work and hiring outside of the area? I know every company values it's on site culure but how has the current world changed that view?
Well, some of the roles list "Bellevue WA or Remote WA/CA" (e.g. sr game services) - we're running a pilot program for fully-remote engineering hiring.
More broadly... it's really really complicated. Trillion dollar companies have been whiplashing their policies - shows how hard it is to make a plan that sticks. The COVID era certainly taught us at Bungie that working remotely was way, way more viable than we thought - I think we've made, shipped, and operated some of the best Destiny ever with everyone working from home. OTOH, we make unique highly-integrated experiences that combine cutting...
Read moreAs someone with little to no game development experience but who wants to work on games (and would honestly love to work at Bungie at some point), any tips to get started in that area? I have a solid CS background but otherwise not much game experience.(also I have no idea what your position is so if you have no insight on that no worries hahaha).
Hm, i think there may have been some advice on that in the ama we did last year?
That's a lot for a company with ~600 employees (17%). I clicked a bunch and they seem to mostly relate to destiny. I wondered whether they related to that other IP. Either they are expanding the team significantly or a lot of people have left and they haven't filled in the holes. Maybe I'm reading too much in to this.
Just saw this thread and there's a neat thing to share here - our average employee tenure is pretty long, so we have a lot of folks who've been working on Destiny for a long time (I've been working on it for ~12 years). We have a lot of love for Destiny, but that's a long time to work on one thing, and many people get hungry for a big change of scenery, different challenges & opportunities. We don't want those people to leave Bungie to get that change, so part of our overall strategy is hiring most new folks onto Destiny to allow more of our existing folks to shift to future projects. We do hire some new folks directly onto future projects as well - ideally we get an optimal blend of fresh perspectives and hard-won Bungie best practices and culture.
That's not the whole story of Destiny hiring, it's true that we're also expanding the Destiny team overall - the game is still growing and there are many opportunities we want to seize... the roadmap meetings are amazing, loo...

No more accidently throwing a smoke over a Thrall's head!
Thanks for the feedback. Looks like season 15 changes are solidified (coming soon to a TWAB near you), but there may be opportunity for an additional (minor) change in a mid-season patch.
Once we have more info, we'll let you know.
Hey all,
Feedback has been passed along. Don't have a clear answer right now, but folks will be looking into this before GM's go live next season. Once we have more info, we'll let you know!
Hey all, thanks for the feedback.
At this time, unable to make any promises for changes to Dreaming City loot acquisition. While the team had some time to reissue the weapons, it's looking like the team is full steam ahead on future content.
We'll continue to pass along the feedback, but I want to set clear expectations: No changes are planned in the short term, and may not happen for some time. Until then, you'll have weekly chances via quests, Blind Wells, and Shattered Throne completions. There's also a daily bounty available each day for chances at weapons and armor.
Thank you. If I need to immigrate to the US for the free emblem I will, just let me know!
I checked and they are aware of the issue and working on a fix. Thanks! Stay tuned to @Bungiehelp for the latest.
Existing Bungie Store customers can now reset their password and migrate their Bungie Store account to the new site.
Unfortunately /u/Cozmo23 this doesnt appear to be the case. At least the EU Bungie Store still does not appear to be sending out reset password emails.
Oh well.
Edit: Maybe the EU store accounts weren't migrated (correctly?) Maybe they were migrated to the US Bungie Store? Do they even have seperate accounts?
I'll check into this, thanks for the report!
