Bungie has made Eververse into something we were promised it wouldn't be. With each update in year 2 eververse has taken a step in the direction of pay to win. Seems no one supports this action so join with me and sign here and demand on the forums that it is removed!
[spoiler][quote]So no, this armor that I am now wearing to play all the new content is not, in fact, cosmetic. This is real gear with actual, useful talents that is able to be infused to max level. Saying it’s a vanity item is like selling someone a “perfectly safe” unloaded gun, when you can see them holding a box of bullets in their hand. [/quote]
From a Forbes article. Excellent analogy.[/spoiler]
***EDIT***
Lets clean this up a bit!
It seems lots of people think the only way to "win" in this game is to be level 335. The majority of people that play this game are interested in getting the current cool loot. (It's a looter shooter after all) The previously mentioned "cool loot" can now be purchased in a gambling fashion instead of being eared. Don't take "pay to win" so literally people!
SHOUT OUT TO ALL THE GUARDIANS THAT KEEP IT REAL AND DON'T LET THE BUNGIE APOLOGISTS RUN WILD
People want DLC that is based around content rather than more micro-transactions!

It's able to be infused to max level if you have any max level item, then your max level item goes away in the process. It sounds like a transmog system where the stats aren't kept. Your forbes article makes no sense. Willing to be your wearing spektar or desolate armor right now as well.

People lack patience in this game, there's going to be a content drought now, at least sterling is exciting to get each week, gives you a reason to play

13 RepliesEdited by ilooooovely: 4/15/2016 6:58:47 PMDo you get rolls you are unable to get on any other piece of gear? No. Does it allow you Max light, the way it is received? No. Does it allow you to get extra of things, xp, motes, coins, consumables, or anything of that nature? No. Soo.. what's the issue? As it stands at this moment, it does not give you any advantage.. except for looking pretty cool. I will continue to run around in the desolate armor.

7 RepliesPeople just love "fighting the good fight". If someone actually thinks this is a genuine problem. And is even a little bit concerned, clearly has very little going on in his/her life.

1 ReplyPay to look cool is in full effect. F you bungie

well if you pvp and are looking for those certain perks, sure it might be pay to win, but as a PVE'er lime myself it does not influence me in the slightest as I don't go up against other players. when the dude next me has over me I don't care.

Let them waste their own money on that crap. The rest of us are all laughing at them for being complete tools. The taken armed pisses me off because I keep shooting at it and and the spec for warlocks looks dumb af anyway.

1 ReplyClaiming that it is headed in the wrong direction is an opinion. I do not agree with you because, every piece of armor sold can be obtained by playing the game. Had they only been available through microtransactions I could see and back your view but, that is just not the case. Sales of silver are optional. People who "gamble" in this way are generating funds for updates like this one and srl type events which we get for free.

1 ReplyDont end emotes. End all other useless stuff

4 RepliesI actually have an idea that might work well. If you defeat all 3 bosses in under 5 or 6 minutes you get a consumable that drops very small amounts of silver every time you kill enemies

11 RepliesEdited by joey big guns: 4/15/2016 3:29:23 PMBruh, please explain how light level 3 gear with the same rolls as any other gear is "pay to win". Please tell me how you "need" to buy those packages when you can get one just for playing in crucible. When you get one free each week. Go on, I'll wait. No one is forcing anyone to buy the "cool loot". Stop being a damn drama queen, princess. I got a spektar chest and boot from the one mission gift and the crucible reward, I didn't know that my chest piece that can hold more auto rifle or sniper ammo, and has increased shields when using arc class or arc splash damage reduction was game breaking. Damn, it's the same roll as the crucible chest I had months ago that's sitting at 316. Has the crucible been selling game breaking loot this whole time???? Smh.

1 ReplyUseless post for non-issue. Do you work for Faux news or something? Stop with the scare tactics. Nothing to see here. Move along.
