Just asking this out of curiosity. Do you think Bungie is just going to keep us in the darkness about what the factions represent (if they represent anything) up until release? Or do you think the information will be leaked very slowly over time. Place your bets, gentleman.
For those that don't know, there are supposedly 5 factions: Dead Orbit, FWC, Osiris (ignore the whole NPC thing for right now), Seven Seraphs, and New Monarchy. And we only have pictures of there flags/symbols right now.
Feel free to post custom dates/times

I think I figured out what Dead Orbit is. The symbol appears to be of the Earth and the Traveler. As we all know the Traveler hovers low above the Earth as if it was in orbit, but it doesn't move so it its orbit is "dead." Hence the name "Dead Orbit." Clever. This has lead me to believe that the faction as some sort of religious tie to the Traveler. Similar to the Unitologists in Dead Space. Another possibility is that it has some kind of tie to Warlocks. Of course this is all theory. Do NOT take anything I said here as fact because it isn't. This is just my best guess. What do you guys think?
