If you've been a Bungie fan for a while, you'd know that Bungie has an affinity for the number [b]seven[/b]. From their earliest days to their most recent title, Destiny, Bungie has made sure that 7 was incorporated into just about everything they've made.
One of my favorite things about the Halo franchise (under the development of Bungie of course) was noticing an instance of '[b]7[/b]' without being told about it. But sadly, I haven't really noticed much of this numerical value in Destiny, until the other day that is. When constructing the intro bridge to the Crota's End raid, I noticed that there are [b]7[/b] floating segments to that bridge, and that spark reminded me of all the fun I had looking for this number in games.
Any one else find any instances of the number [b]seven[/b] appearing in Destiny? Let's make this a Database!
*Disclaimer: Many of these references may be coincidence, coincidence or not, they are still solid instances of the number 7*
Post your findings, I'll add them, then the finding will be verified and then marked with an 'X' if it's come to be a true finding.
