Void bow for the Hunter was in the article I referenced that originated from Bungie.net but apparently everything from there is BS.

Hype train is officially rolling! The new subclasses look badass to say the least. Hunters might just be the new best support class in the game.

Hopefully the PS exclusive contents of the first year (or at least the ones from 2014) can also become available in September. We can use some "fresh" content in Nightfall rotation.

Bungie's signature vidoc is awesome as before (as in Halo days). They should make more of these.

Reading something about we fully expanded players can get a digital version with some goodies, but not all the goodies from the collectors editions you have to pay $80 for and rebuy the game to get...
I really wish publishers would stop jerking us around and just let us buy what we want...
I think it comes down to just some emotes, which is clearly not worth $40. But then we've been asking for more emotes this whole time and I want new F'in emotes... heh

I'm drawing the line at rebuying the game. That is asinine. They're making it sound like it's a privilege to be able to just buy the expansion.

It might be worth buying simply to hold onto the codes and sell them at a later time.... All you need to do is go on ebay and type in blacksmith shader to see how that could be profitable in a year (note: I pre-ordered advanced warfare and my gamestop never gave me a code for Destiny on the receipt like they were supposed too; didn't care at the time; but kicking myself now.)...

While I think it is a absurdly stupid move from bungie/activision to screw day one players like that, because you need to keep your fanbase at bay. I really think the internet is blowing it up beyond any proportion.
It are a few cosmetic things. They are clearly forgetting that we got to have the game for a full year, games loose value over time and that there is actually tons of content new players will never get their hands on.
- Vanilla weapons (TDYK, SWARM, Zombie apoc, shadow price, Field scout, last round snipers, hammer forget, fun with AR in crucible, queen sniper etc etc) - Vanilla armour - TDB weapons (LDR, plug one, NM sniper, against all odds, all these could also have the better old perks) - TDB armour - Stunt sparrow
and there is probably more. This greatly outclasses a few cosmetics imho.
(but I have to admit, I would like to have those cosmetics as well, but I am not going to complain about it...)

That's why I kept on about lockouts for non-DLC owners and now we have this. No question Activision will get 99% of them blame but Bungie have allowed this to happen by signing up to them when they left Microsoft.

"The Taken King doesn’t have to do much to have a better reception than The Dark Below, but in announcing its availability and pricing, Bungie has already made a step in the wrong direction.
Fortunately, the ship could be easily righted, if Bungie proves that they do indeed listen to their community and understand their needs. Looking ahead to growing the playerbase is fine, but right now, Destiny’s current community needs to be supported by Destiny"
The above could be a problem, because Destiny players aren't supposed to be critical of Bungie (according to this board)
Anyways, $80, for what is a slightly buffed up DLC (or an extra $40 for the stuff) I don't like how the road ahead looks. Like the PlanetDestiny article says, it sure does look like a "cynical money grab" How else should one see it? A reward? A thank you?

iw5000though it will take a bit more to convince me to hand out $80 for the Expansion and 2 DLC's (that we can reasonably expect). I must make time in my busy busy schedule anyways for the new Mass Effect.

I thought Halo was a big success and a lot of the Halo player base will be playing Destiny as a result of that. If you're going to measure success by profits earned then I'm not sure if that's an ideal comparison since a lot of the shooters these days have their best days behind them, let alone the sales modeling of Destiny itself. Unless I have completely misunderstood your point? Or are you saying that Bungie thought Microsoft didn't push Halo to being a bigger IP than it already is?

Like the PlanetDestiny article says, it sure does look like a " cynical money grab" How else should one see it? A reward? A thank you? Yup, can't disagree there. Brand new players get bonus stuff while the people who've been there since day 1 don't? Doesn't make sense at all. Granted it's only shaders and probably a new dance move (aka: whoopdee fucking doo!), and the day 1 people get some other extra stuff anyway (shader, emblem, sparrow), but still. Day 1 players should get all of everything just for buying The Taken King normal edition or whatever for $40 and not have to mess with the $80 collector's edition nonsense to get all the extras. The uproar on reddit about this whole deal is crazy, and I'd be shocked if this isn't changed by the time Taken King releases. As far as not being critical of Bungie, I'm pretty sure that's not what anyone ever said, and if that's the message you took from it then you missed the point. There's a difference between actual criticism (i.e. the post I've quoted) and "Fvck Bungie" style bashing (i.e. the post people called you on). I think everyone here understands there are problems with the game, Bungie, whatever, and that some criticism is prefectly fair and completely warranted. Anyway, enough about that. How's your redecorating/new floor/new furniture/new stuff project coming along? THebb and I are getting bored playing by ourselves all the time. We actually resorted to accepting a random tower Nightfall invite yesterday and got stuck with some creepball who kept saying "blowjobs!" every couple minutes for no reason. Note to self: do not accept random tower invites again.

Ha. I saw you guys playing with someone I didn't know. I was hoping to jump in for an easy Nightfall, too. That'll teach you for not letting leach off your hard work!
