This Week At Bungie –1/11/2018

<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="https://www.sickgamedev.win/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/this-week-at-bungie-1-11-2018.jpg" width="1920" height="1080" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>Our weekly blog address is back from its winter nap. We hope you all had happy holidays and enjoyed the Dawning while it lasted. Speaking of the Dawning, we got a lot of feedback about how it could have been better, along with a lot of ideas for Destiny 2. Buckle up and get ready to read, because we’ve taken that feedback and turned it into a plan for future updates.</p>
<p>Game Director Christopher Barrett:</p>
<p>Hey, everyone. At the end of last year, I made a promise that I would update you on our plans for Destiny 2. The team has been hard at work and we’re ready to share where we are headed. We used to wait to talk about game updates until we were certain we could meet our deadlines to avoid letting players down if we changed our plans. No longer. We’re not just listening, we are doing. Please keep in mind that the further out we make promises, the more they are subject to change. With that caveat, here are our plans.</p>
<p>Talk to you again soon,</p>
<p>Christopher Barrett</p>
<p><strong><big>Return of the Factions</big></strong></p>
<p>Spoiler Alert: Your favorite (and least favorite) faction leaders are coming back to the Tower next week. They will welcome every Destiny 2 player, on every platform, to determine which of the factions will reign supreme. A special prize will hang in the balance.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Faction Rallies</strong></p>
<p><strong>Start</strong>: Tuesday, January 16</p>
<p><strong>End</strong>: Tuesday, January 23</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Pledge your loyalty. Do your faction’s bidding. Earn rewards. Step forward and be counted. Season Two brings new armor ornaments you can earn, along with the base gear. </p>
<p><strong>Future War Cult</strong></p>

<p><strong>New Monarchy</strong></p>

<p>Once the reward totals have been counted, the winning faction will have a weapon to sell for Glimmer. As always, the cost you pay depends on the pledge you made.</p>
<p><strong>Future War Cult Auto Rifle</strong></p>

<p><strong>New Monarchy </strong><strong>Auto Rifle</strong></p>

<p><strong>Dead Orbit </strong><strong>Auto Rifle</strong></p>

<p>It’s time to choose who will have your allegiance. Soon we will crown a new winner. Dead Orbit and New Monarchy have both spent time on the throne. Will you finally show some love to Future War Cult?</p>
<p><strong><big>Heat in the Kitchen</big></strong></p>
