[spoiler]Quotes are coming from the "Toxic, salty or just hateful people in the community". This is my prediction on how the Cold Heart situation will go. [/spoiler]
"The beta sucked, im canceling my oreorder."
Or
"I'm going to wait for the game to release and see the reviews before I buy."
*Bungle introduces a pre order bonus*
"I'm still not going to pre order and get a garbage game."
*Game releases and it turns out to be better than most people expected*
*People who didn't pre order flock to buy the game, thus they don't get the Cold Heart right away*
*Non-Pre Order players enter the crucible and get killed by the Cold Heart*
"WTF BUNGIE, UNFAIR. IM OFFENDED I DONT HAVE THAT GUN, WHOEVER HAD IT SHOULD BE PUNISHED BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE IT!"
*Nerf posts on the forum get created*
*Cold Heart gets nerfed, releases later for everyone or people finally start getting it as a drop*
"This gun sucks, it barely does any damage, why make a useless gun Bungie? This is why I hate Destiny *rant continues*"

22 RepliesThere are only something like 200, maybe 250k physical preorders. That is [i]terrible[/i]. Even if there are just as many digital, thats still terrible. They had to do something.

Everything is going to be nerfed anyway. [spoiler]D3 is going to be us sitting in a room throwing pillows and they'll still be nerfed[/spoiler]

Since when do people defend pre order bonuses? Did I miss something? I thought everyone hated them because they encourage paying for a game long before you know anything about it and how finished it is

54 RepliesThere's an easy way to avoid that kind of negativity from the community. So easy in fact it's been done countless times before by countless other developers. [b][u]Don't offer special s**t.[/u][/b] It really is that easy. * If you pre-ordered: kudos. Thanks for the show of faith. If you didn't, no worries, you wont miss out on anything. * Bought the game months after launch? Excellent! Welcome aboard. Everything is available to you that was available on launch day. * Console-specific exclusives? No, no we don't do that. We won't play favorites with one community over another. Our game is for everyone, and everyone gets access to the same stuff, at the same time. * basic edition vs deluxe edition with extra in-game goodies? Nope. None of that. We might offer a deluxe edition with out-of-game extras, like a bobble-head or a steelcase, but never extra in-game stuff. See above. * Different access/launch dates depending on platform? Again, no. See above: everyone at the same time. See how easy that is? If you treat everyone the same then no one will complain about not getting something someone else has (outside of being plain unlucky and RNG-eesus hating them). But they wont do that. Few if any developers or publishers these days will. It's all about money now, and if one platform is willing to pay more for some exclusive stuff then that's what the bean-counters will demand be done. The almighty dollar rules, not artistry, not storytelling, not fostering a good relationship with your community. It's money.

1 ReplyOne again bungie finds some way to suck your money
-
Pretty much exactly how its going to go.
-
Gave bungie my 100 bucks the moment pre orders were up after the special event. Can't wait. Yeah it sucks for other to have to wait for 3 months. Just pre order the game. U know u are going to play it anyway. Plenty time to save up
-
Nailed it!!! Very funny!
-
That weapon will come out in DLC. You never know but too bad if you don't pre order it....
-
-
You would have a point there of it was available only for pre-order Guardians ONLY for as long as D2 is running. The Coldheart will be available to all Guardians in Dec 2017...... Does not matter if you buy the game now or later, you still get the weapon as some point.

So true it hurts.

7 RepliesThis was a terrible move by a desparate company. it looks like Beta's negativity effected Pre Orders a lot. Bungie is trying a pathetic business tactic that will alienate and create more problems on their userbase. If you want more trust me you'll get more things as if this desparation continues , we may see more actions like this by Bungie Activision will chase you both to moon Luke + John co ltd...

More like that awesome vanguard gear I got when I pre-ordered D1.
-
I will pass 🤠
-
Nahhh, sounds like majority is not down with dual primaries. I'll give it a try though, since I pre-ordered.

1 ReplyWhats wrong Bungie. You have to eesort to preorder bonuses. I smell a major flop. Oh and guess what. I am still not preordering. I have seen 4 people play the beta. Not good.

35 RepliesOnly trace rifle being introduced at launch which is hidden behind a paywall for 3 months and you think people don't have a valid excuse to be pissed?
-
Haha, funny because it's true lol
-
7 RepliesBungie is a business, if it assures they'll make more money if be more suprised if they didn't do it. Although I liked how they did it with ghorn, whether your pre order or not you get ghorn BUT if you put faith in us you get a better looking one for a while

3 RepliesI went back to Best Buy and got my money back.

I was thinking the same thing earlier on my way to work
