343 says fuck you Destiny

I take it their poster is about Earth? The "For Her" thing could mean you are fighting for it or you should join up to protect it.

That's not even the same poster, look at the angle and the symbol under Earth.

Sandtrap · May 30, 2015, 10:47:57 AM

Well, you do know they likely changed it due to copyright claims or issues? I wouldn't be surprised.

I don't think so, what about the other references to Bungies older games in Halo?

Those older games where made by Bungie.

This game, ODST with a coat of paint, is now partially liscensed under 343 because they own the franchise. See, legal loopholes are cunts. If you don't watch your step, you could get sued easy.

And, I would bet money that's why 343 changed it. To avoid liscensing issues.

Presumably Microsoft owns the rights to Marathon and Myth, which they got when they bought Bungie in 2000.

RadicalClass32 · May 30, 2015, 11:00:20 AM

I guess 343 wanted to get the cancerous memory of anything Density-related out of Halo.

Ah ok, that makes sense, yeah I can see why now. Thanks for explaining that.

I know game devs sometimes have throwbacks to each other. Like Hayabusa armour in Halo 3. It was a throwback to the devs of that one series. Holy fuck memory. The ninja gaiden series.

But usually, there's a lot of legalities to cross first. So, since 343 owns Halo now, and this is objectively a remake of ODST, which validates the game as theirs, that old poster could technically be considered advertising for another game, and therefore, potentially, stolen ad revinue.

So, we could actually say that 343 said "Hey fuck destiny."

Becuase the Bungie and Craptivision are so shitty, I seriously wouldn't put it past them to sue over something like that.

Bungie owns Marathon and Myth (at least I think they still own Myth).
There's a Marathon game actually in development by a small team at Bungie, which was mentioned in the contract with Activision.

They replaced Muh Marty with this shit. 3v4Industries is brokering canoes again

I know why they had to do that. Copyright reasons. Because Bungie owns that asset.

Same shit goes with the Marathon logo not appearing on Guilty Spark's eye in the remakes.

Probably the only good thing 343 has done so far. Bungie and 343 are both shitty developers at this point. Bungie does Destiny, and 343 outsources everything worse than NAFTA.

343are bad because they were fored by Microsoft to rush out a rediculously huge port on a completely unfesable timefraame?

343 is bad because they barely touched anything in Halo 4. MCC is just icing on the cake for both MS and 343.

Are you talking about the development or the updates made to the game?

343 was very understaffed during Halo 4's development, so yeah, they outsourced so it would be completed in time, like any logical company would.

If you're going to shit on a company, at least shit on them for valid reasons.
