Big companies are not known for transparent communication (Destiny)

To be fair, 'sources' at Bungie don't know the plan. That doesn't mean there isn't one. For all we know their 'sources' are in the QA department. They even point out that some of their sources hadn't heard about the supposed delay.


That's pretty much my point. I've never worked in a large studio environment like Bungie, so I don't know what level of company-wide communication is "normal". Kotaku is making it sound like the future of Destiny is in a state of flux at the moment. If the team within Bungie is not all informed of the current plan, there's no way Bungie will be announcing anything quite yet.

I work in company several orders of magnitude larger than Bungie, but once you get past a certain threshold very similar things happen, for one; company-wide communication is EXTREMELY difficult. In some cases it just plain sucks. It doesn't surprise me AT ALL that certain corners of Bungie had zero clue about goings-on in another, relatively unrelated, corner. Case in my point; sometimes I hear news about my company from friends who watch the news before I hear about it from my upper management. :-/
