[SPEC] Are we supposed to fail the Axon Plot?

Interesting thought......

It could be a way of weeding out all the more non dedicated gamers. escpecailly the Halo fans that don't appreciate the stroy and were just looking for freebees from bungie.

<PSH>

they intended for us to fail to find some of them maybe but they set an upper limit of 777 axons no DM/GM/PM in there right mind spells out the goal like that if they want you to fail it makes it to hard to move the line with out creating disention amoung the gammers. i'm sure when we reach the 777 goal they reward us with "some thing big".

Question: Why would they keep telling us to get to 777 (ref: Dana's latest blog post, and the newest 404 page), if we're not meant to get to that many hot axons? It just dosn't make sense. Now, if there was someone/thing trying to stop us from getting the axons, it would make sense, but there's nothing doing that right now.

Except the frustrated players that won't visit payphones anymore. which begs the question. does anybody know of people who have stopped visiting locations? alot of whining has been going on but has anybody actually stopped trying?
Dunno

We're supposed to 'win' the Axon plot. However, by 'winning', we doom Earth.

Thats my guess.

I personally think the idea of a steak-out is great. We could do that while we stake out locations! Rolling Eyes

(mmm....steak)

But seriously, I think this is a big possibility. I think that while we're going to end up having to hit 777 axons to move forward, I think we may miss out on certain sound clips, and therefore lose parts of the story. This makes us have to piece together dialogue puzzles without certain parts. That's the only way I can think of to keep SOME sort of urgency going with these axons anyway! But that's my thoughts... that regardless of what we accomplish, the axons change EVERY TUESDAY until we get 777!
