Notes: I made a thread asking if we would want our resources pooled together into one thread (as oppose to watching a youtube video). I had gotten quite far when I realized that we were only allowed roughly 1000 words :/ so I ended up just linking to a bunch of stuff rather then type it, to save on word count. This caused a lot of the basic or very vague information to be left out (thus is why there is no vehicles or anything) Anyway, Here we go...

[b]PVP[/b]
No heavy ammo when you spawn,
Lots of verticality (ledges and such),
Changing enviroment (lens flare/block a path),
Boosts are descriptive, not numerical (more speed, as oppose to "+12% more ammo")

[b]Qwerty Notes:[/b]
The rarity category for guns and weapons: Basic (White), Common (Green), Superior (Purple), And Exotic (Gold)
You are only able to wield one Exotic Weapon and one exotic armour at any given time, but may carry as many as you can fit.
In Destiny there is three weapon slots, You have your Primary, Special, and Heavy. You will have the ability to store an additional 12 per slot in your 'backpack/inventory' for a total of 39 guns at any given time. The Primary slot is for the weapons you will have out at any given time and will use most frequently, the assault rifles and pulse rifles. The secondary slot (called special) is used for the heavily situational guns like a shotgun or sniper. Lastly, the heavy slot is exactly how it sounds, LMGs and Booms. Some guns might have what borderlands called elemental damage. Bungie describes this as the weapon is "infused with energy", the damage types are thermal, arc, and void. Similar to Borderlands class skilltrees, your guns, armour, and focus will upgrade with a skill tree (allowing for the energy infused damage). Your gun will be configured utilizing something similar (most likely less modules to edit) to [url=http://mp1st.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Ghost-Recon-Future-Soldier-Gunsmith-600x300.jpg]GRFS[/url].
