(Revised!)
Each day I get more and more excited as players become interested in helping out with the guide! (link above) Destiny is only going to be partly the experience that bungie serves up for us, and the rest of it will be what WE the players make of it. That's why I love the idea of this guide, because it's a way for the Destiny community to pull together and make the amazing experience ahead of us even better!
Some initial ideas I have about how people can help are as follows:
*Writing
[spoiler]Skilled, insightful writers will be needed for this project! No big pressure, or deadlines here. I just want to deliver the best content possible to the community whenever we can.[/spoiler]
*Pictures
[spoiler]Those players who have next-gen systems also have the amazing ability to screen capture their adventures. This could really help the guide! I'm not sure on the specifics yet, but pics of the different enemies, locations, guns, armor, etc... would be a great contribution to the site.[/spoiler]
*Explorers
[spoiler]This group isn't called Guardian Recon for nothin! When the beta launches I want to organize exploration parties to go out and gather intel for our guide. It would take WAY to long for the writers to find everything on their own, so this is an area where some reliable guardians could be of great help! The findings could be communicated in a number of different ways, then confirmed and written about later.[/spoiler]
*Feedback
[spoiler]I want this guide to help us all become better guardians, but in order to do that better I'd like to know your thoughts! Since I'm not a telepath, an easy way to contribute to this guide is to post your thoughts on the concept and the content available, or tell us about new ideas that we haven't thought of yet. [/spoiler]
*Spread the word
[spoiler]Perhaps the most accessible, and overlooked, way that you can help with this guide is to let others know about it. The more people we get involved with the project, the more content we'll be able to deliver. I can't stress enough how IMPORTANT this is! Go ahead and tell your friends, or post a link somewhere for us. It can only help.[/spoiler]
Let's all do what we can to make this thing awesome!

Edited by KiIlworthy: 5/25/2014 2:53:01 AMGonna be sweet! Will love to help as much as I can. I have a cousin who is a lead website designer for a major university...he's a Flippin genius. I was thinking of asking him about what it might take to do an interactive interface of the map of destiny. That way you could organize all Recon Guides and Area Info on a sweet map or something. What were your ideas? I am a busy studying at uni, but I would love to explore, capture screenshots, and write for guardian recon (creative writing minor).
