Prison of Elders Predictions?
Bungie just posted their teaser for the Prison of Elders Twitch stream. In 24 hours, we will know what it will have in store for us. Anyone care to guess or predict what we'll find, besides the general "horde mode" guesses?
I'll start by going out on a limb and making my own prediction: Bungie has emphasized that the Prison of Elders will excel over previously expected content (i.e. raids) in the area of re-playability. The ultimate way to make something re-playable is to generate a different experience every time. I'm hoping that Bungie will go beyond the trivial modifiers we've seen in nightfall and move to procedurally generated content - possibly labyrinth-like or obstacle-laden maps that are algorithmically generated and different every time. Perhaps randomly rolled enemies. Objectives or goals that vary from one playthrough to the next. Their term for this new mode, "Arena", suggests a limited, confined space - which would be ideal circumstances for code to generate variance within. That's what I'm hoping and predicting; anyone else have any thoughts?

I'm hoping it will be like the "The enemies move against each other" event in Skywatch. That's so much fun, and very challenging even with other players there. A combination of that with Extraction Crews mechanic where you have to move from site to site and re-set up in a different area could be pretty fun.

I'm pretty excited either way. I have a feeling that there will be a big surprise when it is released. something that has been unannounced as of now.

I hope its like that one halo reach mode, fire fight was it? The more rounds you go the bigger and badder the enemys get, the better rewards, but then again bungie still has a wild card up there sleeve, theres one more twitch stream with no title left before launch, i dont know about you guys but im starting to feel day 1 launch jitters, all the the new exotic armor do something totally different than past gear and we get some new perks on new weapons
-
My guess is that this will be very much like the Gears of War horde mode, and that I will have an absolute blast running it with you fine gentlemen.
