Bungie Spookly Update - October 31, 2014

The Halloween edition of the Bungie Weekly Update has been posted, and DeeJ covers some questions I'm sure a lot of us had about the Dark Below (like the fact that we'll all get 5 additional Bounty slots, even if we don't buy the expansion). And of course an update from the DOC covering the Monkey errors popping up after the recent update. Happy Halloween! (Here, too.)

More Art Surfaces From the Dark

Jesse van Dijk, one of the main concept artists behind Destiny, has updated his portfolio with new Destiny pieces. There's some fantastic stuff in there, including some imagery I don't quite recognize, like the Vex Citadel exploding, that may hint at some things to come. But despite all the top-notch skills on display, this fun little piece below is my favorite!

How am I supposed to make a map cooler than that?

The Dark Below emerges from the Dark Ahead

Bungie has officially announced the Dark Below expansion which will include 3 new story missions, 3 new multiplayer maps, a new strike (and a second new time-exclusive strike for Playstation), and a new Raid. In addition the light level cap will be raised to 32, bounty slots will be raised to 10, and of course there will be many new items. Korny pointed out an interview with Harold Ryan detailing a lot of the information for us, and was kind enough to post some of the screenshots in his thread, and DaDerga let us know on his own. Thanks guys!

All Hail The Traveler!

johnnygreek989 posted this piece of Destiny fanart in the style of a stained glass window over on his DeviantArt. Pretty original (and pretty too). Shamelessly discovered from Hedgem0ny's Twitter.

Animation Education

Dan de Board let us know that the presentation a few Bungie employees gave at this year's Vancouver Siggraph conference can now be experienced through a handful of slides at RealTimeRendering.com. At a quick glance, it looks like there's a lot of interesting stuff in there, including a glimpse at the testworld spaces used to prototype incoming content. Be sure to click on the images or "preview" in the PowerPoint to see the actual animations!

Scourging Winter

Those crazy Rampancy kids are up to it again, this time taking their Let's Play series into the Ember Caves of Venus and the "Scourge of Winter" mission (probably the closest thing to the classic Truth and Reconciliation in Destiny).

Telling Stories Without Words

pike_vehicle.pngMore art direction talks thanks to Shutterstock! Christopher Barrett is the target of the interview this time and there's some fun insights in there, if it is a bit general. Chris's quote, "I think the more details you can put in the game that open up those questions and get people thinking about a world, without needing words, is great," really touches on one of the main aspects of Bungie that's kept me such a fan all this time. Found via Urk.

Shiek Talks Art

boushh.pngDigital-tutors talked to Shiek Wang, a grizzled Bungie employee you should all know for the visuals of Halo he helped define, about the art direction and production of Destiny. What was the approach to armor, weapons, and enemies? And did Bungie worry about veering too close to Halo? A short, intriguing read!

Rampancy in the Archive

The only Bungie mission to contain a British Cortana (no, really, look it up), The Archive is Narcogen and Blackstar's focus in this episode of their Let's Play.

Art of Destiny Gets a Cover?

Looks like Amazon now has a cover for the Art of Destiny book due out November 25th. Placeholder or the real thing - who knows? Regardless, I can't wait to read it / drool over it.

A Very Warm Hotfix

The Destiny Dev Team posted the patch notes for the Destiny update going live tomorrow on Bungie.Net. This one's major adjustments are weapon balance, with the shotgun losing range and the auto rifle losing a few nuances of effectiveness (which hopefully leads towards some more weapon variety in matches!), but there's more fixes in there, too. Update: It's now in our patch notes archive.

The Vex Reveal Themselves

Narcogen let us know that him and Blackstar have continues their "Let's Play" series. This time around it's the mission, A Stranger's Call, one of my personal favorites for just how oppressive and insurmountable you felt the Vex were when they finally appeared in the game.
