Re: Did LW play the mythic map pack recently?

In Response To: Re: Did LW play the mythic map pack recently? (pete_the_duck)


: That still sounds pretty darn open to me. There is a huge difference between
: "not free" and "invite only". The beta was open to the
: public--you might have had to buy crackdown, but ANYONE could buy
: crackdown. A hypothetical private party at Bungie HQ is not open to the
: public--whether you gave someone $60 or not.

: But the point I'm trying to make is--WHY. Yeah, they could invite a
: handpicked group of people and make them sign a NDA--but WHY. WHY have
: people pay several hundred dollars for airline tickets to fly to Bungie HQ
: to check out some maps? WHY let them see something which they aren't even
: allowed to talk about, and WHY risk info leaks by doing so? WHY send the
: message to the fans that "we like these guys, so we're going to treat
: them special. They know something you don't and they aren't allowed to
: tell you."

: ??

I haven't been to the Bungie HQ before but requiring guests to sign an NDA would be better then having the guests wear blindfolds when they walk through the studio to the play test lab/area.

I don't now if guests are required to sign an NDA just to play new maps. Unless Bungie provides blindfolds, there is surely a lot of new stuff that could be seen on computer monitors, whiteboards, artwork and such that Bungie would want to protect.
