I see too much idiots in this post so i can clarify this.
When you get game, you play that. After some time, they will release a dlc to those who want even more content. Bying dlc doesnt mean that it will affect to those players who dont want to buy dlc.
In MMORPG games it goes like this.
- You dont pay, you can still play the content you have paid originally
- If you are willing to pay, you can play that content you originally bought + [b]that new content you bought.[/b]
Bungie is tupid and desided that every player have acces to single weekly heroic and nightfall strike, meaning that those who dont have the dlc, cant play weekly heroic or nightfall some times. They should seperate dlc players and non dlc players.
Think this like in Call of Duty. You buy a map pack, so you unlock a new playlist where you can play only those new maps. You can still go back and play the old ones. The players who didnt buy the map pack, cant play those new maps, but you can still enjoy the stuff you bought for 40-60$.
Everyone who is saying "buy the dlc" are just [u][b]morons.[/b][/u] You cant force others to buy stuff to play the actual game.
Now im just waiting for rage responses :).

Buy the DLC ;)

I'd really like to play vanilla WoW. I bought the original game and I'm willing I pay the sub fee. But wait...I can't. Why is that?

I think you misunderstand the DLC in this case. You can't compare it to a map pack from COD. They are completely different. DLC on COD adds 4 new maps for you to run around in. It doesn't alter anything else about the game. DLC on destiny alters everything. It ups your light level, which changes what levels you play strikes on. It affects the gear you're wearing, which again changes the way your game will play. The game end game experience changes when you buy the DLC. It doesn't add 4 maps for us to have a look at. What would you do? Have them give you two nightfalls and 2 weeklys? And what happens if one nightfall is skolas and the other is omnigul? Without DLC you still can't play them. It's a great idea in concept. But can you image how the original player base would feel if they came on every Tuesday and it was sepiks prime or the nexus? We've run them so many times, we don't want to run them over and over and over because of people that decided they don't like the game enough to roll with it

Edited by XaveBoy: 6/10/2015 7:18:20 AM1. Running same strikes over and over again is their choice. If they dont want to buy new stuff, then they have to play the old stuff, and thats their choice. 2. I never said that call of duty dlc is the same as Destiny dlc, it was an example to understand my point. To understand that the purpose of dlc is to give something new, like you said, more strikes, light level, etc. 3. Dlc purpose is to not make your gaming experience easier, period. They should give you more content to play. The point of my comment was to tell you that dlc players should not get this kind of advantage to non dlc players, only more content like story missions, armor, weapons, strikes and so on. 4. Every week there should be a chance for non dlc players to play the weekly content, just like before TDB. Dlc owners should also be able to play their strikes as weekly heroics and nightfalls, but never overrun the non dlc players. Hope this clarifies it more.

Expansions, get this, expand the game. By not including new content in the weekly or NF rotation, its robbing DLC owners of content. You can't expect Bungie to have the same 5 or 6 vanilla strikes as NF forever, do you? If so, you're a delusional one. Its also a marketing tool. Show customers what their missing out on.
-
Edited by XaveBoy: 6/10/2015 7:21:15 AMDid you read my comment? I said that dlc/expansions idea is to expand the game, but not making non dlc players life harder. Every other RPG game is doing it right, i have never saw this kind of game desing on other games, thankfully. Its easy to seperate dlc players out of non dlc players. You can play dlc strikes when weenmy comes, but then they should give a chance to those who dont have dlc, just like before the first dlc.
-
How else would bungie add these strikes into a nightfall or heroic setting? And don't tell me "add another playlist" because that makes three additional chances for dlc owners to receive gear and people would still bitch. And even if they did do that, and made it to where dlc owners could only earn a single piece of gear from any nightfall, then they have a choice of which one they want to do, which people will still bitch about.
-
I wouldn't bitch you paid for the new content you should get new content. I refuse to buy the DLC I want my only original playlist content. Don't want armor rank or anything just let me have the game as purchased. I have never seen any other game I have purchased take content away from a purchaser because of DLC. This type business model is going to hurt us all in the long run.
-
Well said
-
Its not that hard to seperate dlc players with non dlc players. Every other RPG or MMORPG is doing it, and it works. Every time there is a dlc strike in the weekly reset, non dlc players should be able to play some other strike, that is in the disc.
-
id rather just spend 3 hours worth of wages to buy an expansion worth countless hours of fun. seems easier, quicker, and more effective than bitching about it. but thats just me.
-
Again, you dont understand the purpose of dlc. And your argument is invalid.
-
My argument is not invalid. Heres why: My argument, is based off of opinions. So is yours. Opinions are opinions you stupid phuck. its [b]impossible[/b] for one opinion to be more valid than another even regardless of experience or "stripes on our belt" because regardless, they are still a damn opinion. the fact that you can imply that what someone says doesnt matter shows me that your NOT here to express your feelings and points, your here to have one sided arguments and hate on people and its quite pitiful. any more assanying comments?
-
Regardless, you've not understood the issue

Edited by XaveBoy: 6/10/2015 7:02:51 AMAgain, you still dont understand the point of this. I said that your argument was invalid because you said that its more quicker and effective to buy expansion. Thats not how it works. If you even read my comment you would understand the point. Dlc byers should never rip off content for non dlc players. They should get more stuff, like maps and so on, but [u][b]never ripping of content.[/b][/u] I give you another Call of Duty example. I buy new dlc that have team deathmatch game mode on those new maps. That [b]does not[/b] mean that all those players who dont have dlc, cant play team deathmatch without the dlc. Sure dlc owners can get new gamemodes like in advanced warfare "grapple team deathmatch, and thats ok. Additional content is the point of dlc, not making your gaming experience easier, thats almost pay to win. Any other constructive opinions?
-
your not even worth reading the walls of text you posted to my simple half paragraph so before i mute you ill just work off of this single sentence i decided to read. [quote]its more quicker and effective to buy expansion. Thats not how it works.[/quote] First off im sure in the walls of text you insulted my knowledge in some shape way or form. incase you did..... look closely. "more quicker"? please work on your english grammar. thinks like your and you're or capitalizing you "i" arnt really important but when you cant even convey a thought in basic english correctly i have [u][b]NO[/b] [/u] respect for your opinions. But with the point you said its not quicker, i think everyone agrees your just stupid. it is indeed quicker to level up if you buy the expansions because you have more things to do and more ways to level up and more content to cover. if you disagree, well then im sorry for your mental disability. Thats the only sentence i read because i could not pass up making fun of your failure. -ur muted-

Edited by XaveBoy: 6/10/2015 5:37:34 PMIn the hope you didnt mute, heres something for you. You dont understand how videogames work. You didnt know that im typing non stop and replying for hundreads of comments (with mobile, typos happen, and im too lazy to speak good unglish m8). If you didnt even read my "wall of text" then why you even reply to me? You still dont understand what me or OP is saying, you still think we are cheap bastards living in the streets. Muting people because you lost an argument is foolish, really dude? "You said its not quicker" i never said that. If you dont have anything constructive feedback or ideas to improve Deatiny, then simply leave feedback section. That is all.

Hey your right.... It keeps going like this in future games we ALL are going to be paying high amounts for a game. Original purchases of Destiny at release and the DLC that's $100. Really is the game was worth $60 fine but it wasn't imho. Now the DLC really another $40 not worth it. I'll bet Destinys release has got a lot of people re thinking preorders and DLC purchase. I feel Bungie has shot themselves in the foot. I now will really look hard at new releases and not preorder. I did this with Far cry and it worked out great. I bought all the DLC too... In fact FC 4 to me is a better game overall.

-I didnt mute (for some reason) after this i am- -i dont understand how video games work? thats an opinion, again your incapable of having real arguments you have to base your claims off of opinions- -i know your replying a lot, your getting a lot of hate for your completely ignorant claims m8- -because i want to have a fair argument, not full proof an essay- -you probably are- - in what moment did anyone decide i "lost" the argument? first off, you dont really lose arguments if 100% of points on both sides are based off of arbitrary opinions. the only arguments i can lose are if i say the sky is red and you show me screenshots of a blue sky. i said i was going to mute you because you cant EVEN bring a legit argument to the table. everything you say is bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit. No evidence, no explicit claims, no facts, just bullshit. thats why im going to mute you.- -you had a comment where you explicitly stated that. hiding the comment so that you could then lie to prove a point is whats really [b]foolish[/b] and childish here. in other words im calling you out on your BS, your shitty english, and your lies. (things arnt looking up for you- -your going to imply that what i say isnt constructive, yet all you have done is lie, use poor grammar, spam the comments, claim that arbitrary opinions are actually facts, and worst of all, of all the BS you have stated, [b]not one[/b] fact, chart, link, quote, or website have you provided to back up your bs.- So in other words you lost this argument. not because your wrong (but in my [b]opinion[/b] you are) but because you cant even provide a respectable argument that im able to step back and ponder about! im willing to hear everyones side of the story, but so far you have stated some lie and when i call you on it, you back up into a corner and state another lie. its pitiful and is the reason of your demise. now your [b]really[/b] muted.

Edited by XaveBoy: 6/10/2015 6:05:09 PMEhm, this is redicilous, even from you buddy. So you typed all that, and still, yet, you didnt even understood what me, or OP said. I tried to help you bro, but your only argument is in the nuttshell "pay for it, dont cry". You are saying i lie, yet you dont know what im talking about. I think others dont take you that seriously. Feedback is for feedback. The whole idea is to make new ideas to improve Destiny. And you? Oh no. You have just told me that buy the dlc, because im poor? If you dont have anything constructive, if you are here only for bashing others, then leave, i dont care. Even if you muted, others can see this argument war ;D.
