Hadn't seen that one (doesn't mention it on their blog).
Highly surprising in that case. Perhaps their original deal meant they owned the IP from the start, and it was in essence just a publishing/marketing deal.
We have enjoyed a successful eight-year run and would like to thank Activision for their partnership on Destiny. Looking ahead, we’re excited to announce plans for Activision to transfer publishing rights for Destiny to Bungie. With our remarkable Destiny community, we are ready to publish on our own, while Activision will increase their focus on owned IP projects.
The planned transition process is already underway in its early stages, with Bungie and Activision both committed to making sure the handoff is as seamless as possible.

halo 2 was a significantly better game than halo 3
wrong opinion.
By Smokey Go To PostBungie being able to take the Destiny IP is pretty wild. I'm not sure if that speaks more to Bungie or the franchise being a dumpster according to Activision lol.I think they thought they were getting Halo and that hasn't been the case. With the small army of people needed to make Destiny versus the sales it's brought in, it's probably not worth keeping.

no
destiny is shite that was completely propped up by activision's marketing $$$ so i'm surprised bungie keep the ip
Halo 3 had a good campaign but multiplayer was still below 2. I specifically talking about it in a competitive nature.

I don't know. From all the reporting it seems like by bungie has really shit management and Activision was surprisingly not to blame for most the shit that's happened with that Game and it's development.
Halo 2 still has the best map suite in the entire series. Pretty much every map except Backwash rules.
Just stone cold classics all up and down the lineup. Lockout, Terminal, Midship, Ivory Tower. Phew.

Boy howdy.
Acti enforced the whole annualised thing, but ya fans are being very kind to Bungie on responsibility for someo f the decision making. Ain't got nowhere to hide now.

real destiny 1 beta (actual beta, not vanilla d1 lolz) OGs remember armor numbers instead of the power level stuff they took on at release. bungie clearly always wanted more rpg like elements. i'm not sure activtision ever wanted what's essentially reverse call of duty

By DY_nasty Go To Posti bet you loved all that equipment bsIf it's equipment versus dual wielding, I'd rather have equipment. Halo 3 is slow and the bullet spread on the br leaves something to be desired, but equipment doesn't take away from the sandbox the same way.
coward
The real argument is the step down in map quality from H2 to H3. Isolation is the worst map in the series. They remade great maps like Zanzibar and Lockout and made them play way worse by being so much larger.

Bungie got dat china money.

Eurogamer article confirms all of the Destiny IP was always Bungie's to begin with. The Acti deal was only ever for publishing. Makes more sense.
wow what a terrible deal by activision to begin with lmao
no wonder they couldn't wait to get rid of it.

Is it even fair to think they're the same exact group that made Halo, and lets say they were? Sometimes people get out of touch.
