There's posts on the Destiny forum, apparently from a Bungie employee who worked on the game saying that the story was massively scaled back because of people from up high in Activision saying that it was too complicated. Apparently they cut so much that it left the mess that we have now with a lot of it not really making sense. The guy who was in charge of the story apparently left quite late in the development

So DDOS attacks and the internet then? Are the gaming networks really that insecure that a bunch of geeks can literally turn them off whenever they feel like? What happens if they decided to turn them off permanently?
Surely sever technology is at a stage where it can defend itself against things like this? Surely there is some kind of filtering system they can use? I can't say I understand DDOS, why is it so hard for mega-corporations to cope with? If they can do this whenever they feel like, what is stopping them from doing it to the major banks in the US for example, which would devestate the world economy?

So nice to see the spirit of Christmas isn't it, ruining the fun of millions of people because you can, lovely. I wasn't affected myself, as i was busy, but i hope they find these daft c**t's at some point and shame them, then put them in prison for being c**ts.

That's the thing that annoys me. They claim to be moral warriors, taking down the greed of Christmas and stopping the sniveling spoilt kids from playing games and forcing them to re-connect with their families. Yet I don't imagine those people were sat with their families enjoying a re-run of Only Fools n Horses but were instead festering in their bedrooms or basements stocked with servers and working overtime to take these things offline.
Nice article here http://uk.businessinsider.com/data-brea ... ic-2014-12 and you'll notice a fair few of these come from physical data loss, which reminds me of: It's an interesting subject alright. I remember seeing a presentation from our company's "ethical hacking" team 15 years ago where they described when contracted to test security for corporations, their main methods of "hacking" were tailgating people into buildings! It's not my part of the business, although we can support via OS support and SW version control, but something I should probably have got into as there's certainly money there in the protection business.
Anyway, back to gaming. Finally making some progress with Dragon Age Inquisition on PS4, and Elite: Dangerous, the first PC gaming I've done in a long time. Both have a bit too much of a "grind" element though.

As one of the little scroats has now been nicked, lets hope he gets a few months in a prison where the inmates couldn't use their XBox's and Playstations at Christmas.
Failing that, I hope MS and Sony hit the parents with a financially crippling lawsuit forcing them to be homeless.
Got four Xbox One games for Christmas and started Assassins Creed Unity. I've played a couple of the others and they seemed OK, but this one has grabbed me. I rarely do multiplayer but the co-op mode in this is great great fun.
The game is bugged, still, but revolutionary France looks very good, story is excellent (pay attention Bungee, your games are just engines). It's about 22 quid now to buy, well worth it.

I got AC 4: Black Flag after being very sceptical about it after the disappointment of AC 3 (it was good, but not as good as it could have been), and I also thought the fact that they were bringing the games out so frequently was detrimental to the games. However, Black Flag may just be the best AC game so far, and I've played all the previous games. I've not played Unity yet, but I've watched a friend play it and I think it's probably the best console game I've ever seen graphically. You're right though it's very buggy, but that's par for the course at this point for AC games.
