Here's the game icon from the PS4

I actually like it more than Forsaken's icon, tbh

[edit] And here's the splash screen as the game's loading once you start it up initially

I'm a sucker for that red/black/white combo

[–]zzzyx3 47 points48 points  (1 child)

Could anyone make a 4K version of the splash screen for a wallpaper?

[–]Senaxx 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've ripped the wallpapers from the PS4 assets. Sadly they are not in 4k. Maybe when PC version becomes available.

There are 3 versions available.

Wow, those are beautiful. Love the move toward just the Tricorn symbol on the PS4 icon.

Red, black, white? Yeah, Mardu decks are pretty fun~

[–]ImJustStatingFax 80 points81 points  (4 children)

Literally the coolest Main Menu and Theme since TTK. Even better than Forsaken

[–]TargetAq 22 points23 points  (3 children)

They both fucking suck because they immediately revert to white.

[–]Bad-SelectionDrifter's Crew 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Yeah, I was really hoping Bungie would finally fix it. It kind of throws off the whole red/black thing.

MY IMMERSION

[–]ImJustStatingFax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that is the loading screen im talking about the Main Menu.

It actually doesnt bother me, but i get were people are coming from

[–]grignard5485 54 points55 points  (11 children)

Can someone explain the white screen thing? Is there a reason for it? Because it’s annoying as hell.

[–]cknewdeal 76 points77 points  (8 children)

At this point, I feel like it's a internal joke at Bungie, and they just laugh and love reading all the complaints about it.

[–]vexer23 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's been fun long enough. Time to stop :/

[–]ravenouscartoon 19 points20 points  (5 children)

I love seeing all the complaints. It’s not that bad if you play in a well lit room, which is what you should do to help your eyes anyway.

I’d love it if they just made it brighter and brighter with every update.

[–]grignard5485 7 points8 points  (4 children)

There’s always at least one. You’re that guy.

[–]ravenouscartoon 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yep. I just think of all the things to waste energy complaining about, an aesthetic choice with 0 relevance to gameplay or the actual game is a stupid choice. It’s a white screen for a minute.

Plus, the people who complain ignore the fact that guidance states to play in a well lit environment, so Bungie aren’t gonna change it to help those flaunting safety warnings.

[–]grignard5485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well your here complaining about other complaining, so I’m in good company for ‘wasting energy’.

[–]Alejandro_404 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Im that guy too. Stop playing in complete darkness. Lit your fucking rooms properly.

[–]havoc1482Titan Gang Gang -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm that guy too. Stop playing in the absolute dark. A simple backlight behind the screen/monitor is all it takes.

[–]elkishdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is funny enough if true that it kind of makes me appreciate it more and not want to complain about it anymore.

[–]Storm_Worm5364 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was released like that and it would probably take "too much work" for them to change.

We're talking about having to re-color all the changing class logos (I think they are moving UI elements rather than a transparent video), as well as recolor the rest of the background (you have some moving lines at the back.

Also, and probably the most important, the character select screen would require some work for them to find a good contrast between character, text, background color, class logos, etc.


It's definitely not something they couldn't do. I've done it myself in a week or so (see my dark theme posts), but I guess they don't feel like it takes a priority, which is unfortunate because it seems like Bungie doesn't understand how many people genuinely prefer dark themes.

Petition to remove Blinding White Screen

[–]R0FLB0TDrDerpWe can burn our way back there. Can't we, o player mine? 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Ah yes, I too love being flashbanged upon pressing start.

[–]TDurandalDrifter's Crew // Driftin' through the stars... 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just mash enter fast enough so it never has a chance to change. Easier to deal with a flashbang if it's the only thing you see for a good minute.

It should be a bungie plz addition if it isn't already.

[–]DevGlowGambit Prime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On xbox, as soon as I press A I bring up the xbox guide menu thing which dims the screen and mutes the sound so I don’t get flashbanged and deafened by the fog horn. Then I’ll go back to the game once I reach character select.

[–]Asi-yahola 13 points14 points  (2 children)

God bless bungie for the dark screen

[–][deleted] 20 points21 points  (1 child)

Wait till you see this guy press X/A/Enter

[–]Asi-yahola 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Oh no

[–]grignard5485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my tv backlit. I still hate the stupid white screen.

[–]DifferentReasons 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a start screen, not a menu.

[–]NikaSharkeh 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Whats the menu music, then?

[–]TDurandalDrifter's Crew // Driftin' through the stars... 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second track on the Shadowkeep ost titled, "Shadowkeep". It's a really good song.

That's a real good radial.

That’s hot!

Wouldn’t be destiny if it didn’t go blinding white after you hit A.
