I think it takes away from the realism and is annoying. I paid $60, I don't want ads.

The game's gonna cost a lot more to make than sixty dollars. You don't deserve freedom from advertising unless that's, explicitly, what you purchased.

This is it. The game most definitely is going to cost them more than $60 over the timespan that you own it. They'll need to recoup the immense bandwidth/server costs. These things aren't free. I don't know of a single MMO-type game (Wow/guildwars/vindictus/etc.) that doesn't have a subscription or microtransactions. They cost a lot.

1.This isn't a MMO. 2.They have new host-migrating tech. 3.This is bungie, where amazing happens.

1. The features they describe are almost EXACTLY like those used in Guild wars/guild wars 2. (In GW2, if someone steps into the region you're in, they'll transfer to the "Server" you're on, and you can see them. If there are too many people on that "Server" it creates a duplicate copy of that "server" for the person) 2. See above, it is not matchmaking as in halo/CoD 3. No. Bungie is a company, they will need to offset their costs.

Well, as long as they aren't intrusive I don't see the problem. And, if anything, it sort of makes it more realistic considering our current civilisation is totally reliant on companies and therefore advertising has become such a huge part of everything. In a time when mankind is attempting to rebuild itself surely there is a chance of all of this becoming even more prominent?
