Thx a ton of amazing info every future universe trotting Destiny Player should know!!!!

LOCATIONS Now for some of the areas of Destiny OLD RUSSIA http://i.imgur.com/OJvSs9R.jpg While players will explore many areas of Earth in the long-term Destiny storyline, the first major location is Old Russia. Specifically, guardians explore the devastated ruins of the Cosmodrome and its surrounding area – a real-world site in modern-day Kazakhstan that has long been the launch site for the Russian space program. In the Destiny fiction, the Cosmodrome remained a vital link to outer space during humanity’s golden age, and players can see the remnants of forgotten colony ships left on the launch pad during the cataclysmic Collapse. Orange, burnt grass steppes and dimly lit interiors of old buildings are a magnet for invading Fallen soldiers. VENUS http://i.imgur.com/2DNkytA.jpg Crackling lightning flashes through the sulfuric yellow sky, and the jungle has grown over the remnants of the scientific research settlement that humanity once held here. Now, the city’s buildings are slowly being swallowed up by the Venusian ocean. Instead, the towering Vex citadel now draws the eye – a hulking obelisk Jenga tower of weird geometric shapes. Its purpose remains unknown, but the robotic Vex unceasingly defend it. MARS http://i.imgur.com/QEQSPTp.jpg A thriving metropolis once dominated the skyline of Mars, a bastion of human life in the red dunes. That city now lies buried beneath a mountain of sand, and only the once-soaring skyscraper peaks are visible. Guardians can climb into those upper windows and delve down toward what was once ground level. Along the way, you’re likely to see the heavily entrenched armies of the Cabal blocking your way. The Vex are also at odds with the Cabal, and it won’t be unusual to see the two forces in combat with one another. THE TOWER http://i.imgur.com/DlzXsGk.jpg The quintessential home base, the Tower is the place where guardians return under the shelter of the Traveler. This large hub stronghold is described as Earth’s Camelot – a glimmering stronghold surrounded by shadow. You can visit vendors, turn in quest items, and interact with fellow players in large, open plazas. The Tower also houses class focused areas for titans, warlocks, and hunters to each meet with their fellows. EARTH’S MOON http://i.imgur.com/4mrSC5k.jpg The forces of the Hive have infested Earth’s moon, and pieces of the surface have cracked and broken off into space. The moon once housed a thriving human colony of interconnected bases, but now only broken domes and scattered space suits half-buried in the lunar soil mark humanity’s faded dominance. An iconic view of the looming Earth hangs in the skybox, but guardians would be wise to keep their eyes closer to the ground. A massive hell mouth gapes open where the Hive began their dig, and sprawling networks of caves and fortified strongpoints wait inside. Out on the surface, forgotten treasures hide in the dust.

ENEMIES Now that we have covered the Guardians and there vast amount of weaponry we will discuss the enemies of destiny. (All of this info is thanks to Matt Miller’s interview with Bungie) THE FALLEN http://i.imgur.com/mBw32Rb.jpg The Fallen This vicious race of pirates is a scavenging menace from deep space. Once a proud and honorable species split into various noble houses, hey have fallen from grace into a nomadic and parasitic path. Its members still wear distinct sigils representing their house allegiance, amid he mismatched and tattered armor and cloth they’ve each pilfered. Their bodies have an arachnid-like quality, visually reinforced by four arms. Shoot a Fallen in the head, and their souls seem to lift up and away like wisps. Their mechanized vehicle units carry overtones of Japanese mecha, and their ships appear like rusted futuristic submarines. The Fallen DREGS are the lowest rung of society, so reviled that they’ve had two of their arms removed. http://i.imgur.com/vJ5Cn5D.png The VANDALS are a tier above, wielding swords and guns as they charge into battle. http://i.imgur.com/Iuap9rN.png Fallen CAPTAINS coordinate battles, and their hulking armor, long capes, and energy shields give them an unmistakable authority in the field. Sometimes, http://i.imgur.com/ZLPcQAT.png Fallen enter battle with mechanical Shanks to aid them – hovering turrets to harry their foes. THE CABAL http://i.imgur.com/hKzSJhV.jpg The Cabal The unstoppable engine of war powers the Cabal, an industrial, militaristic empire that spreads its corruption through organized and efficient expansion and unwavering resolve. Everything about the Cabal is big, from their bulky capital ships to their heavily armored soldiers, who appear as lumbering space rhinos. Cabal architecture is dirty and menacing, smoke issuing from vents and messy oil pouring down the sides. Kill a Cabal soldier, and they collapse with a crash and squirt dark oil from their livery. Like an unstoppable Roman empire from space, the hierarchical Cabal is spreading out to take the solar system for their own. LEGIONNAIRES toe the line and charge straight into battle. http://i.imgur.com/Seqi0HE.png The tougher CENTURIONS stay mobile thanks to jump jets that blast them across the battlefield. http://i.imgur.com/uHdiSvh.png GLADIATORS lead through their own ferocious size and strength, often wielding devastating Gatling Guns. http://i.imgur.com/uqVvspl.png A smaller Cabal variant called Psions (Sorry haven’t found a picture of these guys yet) harness the power of their minds to confront enemies and pilot the Cabal’s barn like ships, adding an unexpected twist to the other wise uniform army. THE VEX http://i.imgur.com/acVM6tv.jpg The Vex Picture the classic science fiction machine race, and mix it with the inscrutable motives of a timeworn Lovecraftian nightmare monster, and you get the Vex. They arrive in the solar system via warp gates, likely from another time in the past or future. Robotic bodies still carry a hint of organic components, and individual bodies might be humanoid, creature-shaped, or in between, but often with long, vicious clawed fingers. The seemingly illogical geometric designs of their structures come together like giant ant hills, but these stone citadels must hold some significance that is unknown to humanity. Head shots do little to slow their advance, but target their abdomen power cores, and a burst of glowing liquid signals their destruction. Vex bear names drawn from mythology. Plentiful swarms of GOBLINS harass and over whelm http://i.imgur.com/wcbTpdT.png , and their larger Hobgoblin (No Picture of this guys yet) cousins are distinguished by their tails, MINOTAURSare larger still broad-shouldered robotic menaces that glare out from three glowing eyes. http://i.imgur.com/9VZOiTL.png Hydras (no picture yet) are segmented machines that float through the air to attack; each segment bears its own turret, and these robotic centipedes fire those turrets as they wriggle through the air Finally, the smaller Harpies (no picture yet) fly rapidly in and out of a fight, occasionally pausing to open up their shells to reveal a writhing mass of filaments before they begin firing. THE HIVE http://i.imgur.com/XRdTwkD.jpg The Hive Inspired by the classic undead from fantasy fiction, the Hive are an impossibly ancient race that has kept themselves alive on tomblike sarcophagus ships. The Hive delves deep into a planetoid, unheeding of the damage they do in the process, crafting linked caverns and gothic-inspired columns. Their underground spaces are like a dungeon that has only recently been pulled up from too long under water. Destroy them, and their dry, mummy-like flesh ignites in a shower of dust and embers. In keeping with the theme, the Hive have names drawn from fantasy. THRALLS http://i.imgur.com/5xRGwvn.jpg attack in a shambling mob, usually unarmoured and without weapons. Troopers (haven’t found a picture of one yet) do the bulk of the combat, but are often assisted by KNIGHTSwielding enormous cleavers. http://i.imgur.com/am8s5Xa.jpg WIZARDS wear long, crumbling robes and fly overhead to unleash their spells, drawing on the power of the Darkness to fuel their powers. http://i.imgur.com/p1LB8Nc.jpg Delve deep enough, and eventually you’re likely to find an Ogre, a gigantic mass of muscle and rage that might stomp you to death if it doesn’t catch you with a blast of violet energy from its head. http://i.imgur.com/AOn9q9t.jpg

4-WEAPONS http://i.imgur.com/PhHPwSY.jpg http://i.imgur.com/RwU9nfr.jpg Destiny has the largest arsenal of weapons in a Bungie game - ever. Beyond that, weapons will be customizable and will come in all sorts of rarities and types. You will be able to have three weapons equipped at once: a sidearm, a primary, and a heavy weapon. Weapons will come in different forms. They will have different names and stats according to what they are, where they came from, and how rare they are. For example, Staten's Thunderlord (as seen in the E3 demo) was an exotic (heavy) machine gun with a weapon level of 200, 2 accuracy, 2 stability, 3 handling, and 2 magazine size. Weapons are not class specific. rarities are Basic (white), Common (green), Superior (purple), and Exotic (gold). Bungie has implemented a three weapon system (primary, secondary, and heavy). Each weapon will have different coloured ammo in the field. Weapons will also have their own skill trees allowing you to make them stronger. The more you use it, the better it will become. Weapons stats, as previously mentioned, are broken up into: Level, Accuracy, Stability, Handling, and Magazine Size. Each weapon also has its own description, but the exotic ones seem to be the most interesting and lore driven. There will be elemental weapons; thunderlord has already been shown and confirmed to have the power of thunder. Other elements have been hinted at by Bungie. When asked about this, Bungie responded, "Where there is thunder, there is lightning." Aiming will be a combination between a style like Halo (with a reticle) and the ability to aim down sights. The different classes of weapons so far are “Auto Rifles, Fusion Rifles, Handguns, Heavy Machineguns, Pulse Rifles, Rocket Launchers, Scout Rifles, Shotguns, and Sniper Rifles”. 4.1- AUTO RIFLES Sanctuary No.2 http://i.imgur.com/hIcCWlU.png Little is known about this Auto Rifle other than its name and this image. Exotic Auto Rifle “Arcus Regime” http://i.imgur.com/TqrCuXQ.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Arcus-Regime/en/News/News?aid=11254 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ The Arcus Regime is a auto rifle made by the Arcus weapon company. It's an older model from before the events of Destiny but still hold up very well. It is the heirloom of the company and their pride. Any Guardian will be able to few it's power when it's in their hands. 4.2- FUSION RIFLES Conduit F3 http://i.imgur.com/HEHkM07.jpg http://i.imgur.com/N3xkSD6.jpg http://i.imgur.com/cgSskSd.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Conduit-F3/en/News/News?aid=11179 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ This Fusion Rifle was only seen in the hallways of E3 leading patrons towards Bungie's theatre. It's clearly an Earth weapon due to the FWC emblem on it and may only be obtainable through that faction. Displayed in the images above it appears to have some kind of energy effect when fired. The Pocket Infinity http://i.imgur.com/UCApzmM.jpg Not much is known about the “Pocket Infinity” it was originally shown as concept art. It appears to belong in the Fusion Rifles family. 4.3- HANDGUNS Duke MK.44 http://i.imgur.com/qTxbmgS.jpg http://i.imgur.com/F8licLo.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Duke-MK44/en/News/News?aid=11068 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ This gun is a slow firing, but very powerful, hand-cannon with a seven round clip. This gun was Joseph Staten's secondary weapon in the Destiny E3 demo. Exotic Handgun “Thorn” http://i.imgur.com/uFx16iA.jpg Thorn was shown off with Super Good Advice and Pocket Infinity during the Game Developer's Conference. This unique handgun can be found deep within Charlemagne's Vault on Mars. It's being well guarded by the Cabal. 4.4- HEAVY MACHINEGUNS Super Good Advice http://i.imgur.com/uv3ZQkt.jpg Super Good Advice was one of the earlier concept arts to be shown to the public. It is a heavy machinegun that is apparently quite powerful. Exotic Heavy Machine Gun “Thunderlord” http://i.imgur.com/8DnyH4b.jpg http://i.imgur.com/RqZtuAw.jpg http://i.imgur.com/xHvhxOc.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Thunderlord/en/News/News?aid=11089 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ This is one of the most well-known weapons in Destiny due to it's usage during E3. This exotic weapon was picked up by a Warlock after defeating the Archon Slayer. It's the kind of weapon that can dish out serious damage, but might overtake it's wielder if they let it. 4.5- PULSE RIFLE PSI Umbra II http://i.imgur.com/nKk82qV.png This pulse rifle was shown on monitors for those waiting to see the Destiny E3 demo. Nothing else is know about it.(Yet -_o) Exotic Pulse Rifle “Red Death http://i.imgur.com/SljW17b.jpg http://i.imgur.com/bPlho5w.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Red-Death/en/News/News?aid=11012 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ This Potent Pulse Rifle offers a bevy of perks to your character that trigger more frequently during competitive multiplayer. In addition to inflicting some serious damage on a enemy it has some really impressive upgrades as you use it. Some of these upgrades include regenerating heath at a increased rate. From what I have heard this is going to be a serious frontlines Pulse Rifle. Viper P3 http://i.imgur.com/gE3yuZi.png http://i.imgur.com/n6wgabA.jpg This seems to be a pretty standard Pulse Rifle, it was also the primary weapon of the warlock character on the E3 demo. 4.6- ROCKET LAUNCHER Exotic Rocket Launcher “Gjallarhorn” http://i.imgur.com/NCJG7cF.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ACS46zT.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ZRRTxDo.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Gjallarhorn/en/News/News?aid=11027 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ An ideal weapon for a titan specializing in zone control this launcher shoots out rockets, and secondary sentries deploy at the site of impact to devastate foes that pass nearby. 4.7- SCOUT RIFLES Monitor S11 http://i.imgur.com/CTCtT6D.png This Scout rifle was only shown on monitors at E3 in the waiting line and as of today (16/12/2013) the only scout rifle that I can find proof of existence for destiny. The FOTC symbol can be seen on it making many people speculate that it is actually a common weapon. 4.8- SHOTGUNS Silver Dollar MK.35 http://i.imgur.com/FC7d5uU.jpg http://i.imgur.com/3ysK8ew.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Silver-Dollar-MK35/en/News/News?aid=11108 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ This shotgun was first seen in the Bungie.net “Renders” category of “multimedia” little is knowen about it besides the fact that It’s pump-action and badass looking. 4.9- SNIPER RIFLES Exotic Sniper Rifle Closing Time http://i.imgur.com/RqO4px2.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LjPbwvE.jpg http://i.imgur.com/DHQA3Yt.jpg http://i.imgur.com/DdYRVxv.jpg http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Closing-Time/en/News/News?aid=11033 ^This link will take you to the “Destiny Drawing Board” and a wonderful breakdown of this weapon.^ Closing Time is the perfect weapon for the “Ghost” style player on your team. This Exotic Sniper Rifle can camouflage your entire body whenever you are zoomed in and has the sweet ability to pick-up ammo by shooting it. (I was also able to find shots of these UNKOWEN SNIPER RIFLES) http://i.imgur.com/WkO7cwo.jpg (This sniper rifle appears to be one of the more common sniper rifles but anyone has info post or send me a message) http://i.imgur.com/MqSUgPZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/YBKlMOz.jpg
