Swords, Swords, Swords
Will there be usuable swords in Destiny?
The Fallen obviously use swords, but can Guardians wield them too?
Bungie has had much experience with this majestic murder machine, from their steel arsenals in Myth to the burning plasma swords of Halo. Will Destiny be void of such a dynamic in melee, or will it stick to its fists, knives, and "space magic push attack?"
Discuss.
EDIT: Grammar, indubitably
EDIT: Somebody pick up that phone, cuz I mother-blam!-ing caaaaalllled it!

7 RepliesI do believe, and hope, that destiny will have swords in it. There have been a couple of hints by deej that this is the case. Anyway I think that if swords really are in destiny, that they would be an individual weapon assigned to the special slot. I can't see them in the primary or heavy slots for two reasons 1 swords probably wouldn't be reliable enough to be placed in the primary slot. You couldn't run around with a sword while everyone else is brandishing a rifle, you would get shot full of bullets. 2 I dont think that swords would be able to put out the high amount of damage that the heavy slot is meant for, and if they did, having a weapon that doesn't need ammo do as much damage ad a heavy weapon is kind of op imo So I can only see swords realistically being placed in the special slot, as a cqc weapon for special situations, much like a shotgun but with shorter range and more damage. All the weapons in the special slot have their merits on certain situations, and if swords do exist I think this is where they will be placed. A sword would be useful if I were being swarmed by thralls

Heavy weapon slot

For the love of god, all these sword threads. Yes. There are swords. It was confirmed forever ago in one or two mail sacks.

1 ReplyNice thing about swords is, you never run out of bullets...
-
3 Repliesi feel its pointless. there are already melee skills on a cd. why do you need swords when you have those
-
3 RepliesIf they put swords in the game, I would like to see them as part of a Titan subclass. Sort of like the Bladedancer for the Hunter but more durable and harder hitting instead of sneaky and fast.
-
Swords need to happen
-
They spoke of these weapons a while back. Deej stated "I can't talk anymore about these" looks like we are having swords to me
-
The hunter gets a" light blade" inplace of the golden gun. Sounds pretty cool
-
1 Replyif there are swords it would be neat if they were just a visual item that changed the way your melee looked. There is was still a Giant knife of the hip of every titan during beta but yall insisted on Falcon Punching everyone. would be neat if your Melee attack was just a quick uppercut with a sword or somthin like that.

Arc blade for hunter

That would make it too much like Halo.

1 ReplyI sat there imagining the use of swords in-game, so yeah, I think it'd be cool - but ofcourse as a special weapon slot or something like that, like Bearshasp said.

7 RepliesEdited by MandalorianDom: 6/20/2014 3:26:40 PMIt's yes. There's already a weekly update saying this,"engineer bragged about standing his ground, and fighting off aliens with an ancient sword claimed from the grotto."Then there's the E3 video with a Titan and he has a machete type weapon on his back. @10:26, I found a video since I'm too lazy to read through weekly updates.Then there's one with Deej talking about the slip. No I don't take it as speculation since it's coming from the source,not some random

After some thought, i have a strong feeling that swords got cut from the game, for 4 reasons. Reason 1) The games reliance on the 3 ammo system. PvP is basically based around an ammo hierarchy. Swords don't use ammo. Halo's energy sword had energy, but it couldn't be refilled. Not to mention they could only feasibly be special weapons, putting them in direct competition with the shotgun. Reason 2) This is my weakest reason, but its a reason none the less. It would kind of be redundant with the hunters bladedancer skill. However the same could be said about hand canons and Golden Gun. Reason 3) Deej got in trouble for mentioning swords Reason 4) Each class has a very specific and upgradable melee attack
-
In a Mailsack awhile ago, Deej described how another Bungie developer had found a sword and used it. Anybody remember?

1 Replydid somebody say.... Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker

I don't think so. The closest thing to a sword looks like the hunter's arch blade.
