Festival of the $$$?
Wait... So before we even discuss this... You get 1 'treasures of the lost' after the quest line and that's it? You get 1 random item and then have to buy the rest?
Damn I was excited and actually felt like grinding for every Halloween item. So is this it for my festival run?
Will there be more quests?
(EDIT: I laugh at the YouTube people who spend $$$ and only get consumables and not even a shell, sparrow or mask. Just want to warn some people considering to spend money, you might not get anything).

1 AntwortenCan you do the quest on all three chars?

Last years had more to it, "trip" off the tower as atheon, get sword kills in pvp as crota and a few more. Also you can get 3 per account. 1 on each character which sucks but its how it is.
-
5 AntwortenYep that's how the real world works. If you want the stuff then you have to pay for it. I can guarantee nobody on this forum would work for free so why should Bungie? Before I get the "but I paid for Rise of Iron" yes you did pay for rise of iron and you received the content advertised in that package, this is now new items that you are free to purchase (or not purchase) at your discretion. Bungie has said all along that the game post ROI would continue to be supported with live events, which as we all know are supported themselves by micro transaction revenue.
-
You get 3 for free.

I hate the blind people in this community. [b]Masks do not benefit you in any actual way.[/b] All masks you need to finish the quests are given to you. Nothing in the game is required to be purchased with silver. But no one will actually use their head, so this will always be a topic to come up.

5 AntwortenI have never had a problem with destiny and there dlcs and microtransactions. But this time they locked everything behind a paywall, and added all the old masks into the packages to make it harder to get the stuff that everyone wants. The older treasures and the ornamanets were fine because they had some use, and didn't affect or hinder your light level. When you open those festival packages and get nothing but a mask and a couple consumables, you feel so cheated and robbed. And they have the nerve on top of it to sell them for 200 "silver" sell them for 100 if you want to be such slimey money hungry slobs. This way it's at least not as bad. Cause burning 5 bucks and getting a couple of useless masks is pretty uncool. I definitely will not blow no 50 bucks, not even 10 on this though. I will convince myself how useless that stuff is before I do that. I just wanted the ghost ghost shell, and the sparrow would be cool. That's a 2 out of 28 chance to get them. Not to mention you can get duplicates. Odds are definitely against me. Sorry bungie. I'm just really blown away though that the new consumables are part of those pckages you have to buy and not something you get from the candy bags. That right there showed just how money hungry they can be. Cause they knew people would be crazy enough to blow 50 bucks on that crap.
-
Literally all the new and cool items advertised in the trailer are only obtainable from the chests
-
ya i have no purpose to play after failing to get the ghost ghost in my 3 free and three purchased. why couldn't i earn more of these or the items from them just from grinding. you let me down pretty bad this time bungie. you locked too much behind a pay wall with no guarantee of something you would like. if duplicates weren't a thing this wouldn't be so bad.
-
I wouldn't have much of an issue with this if i knew i could choose the mask. There's already enough rng crap in this game, let the money we spend (not saying i did, despite it being tempting) give us something we choose. None of this maybe bullshit.
-
You should never have to pay to unlock something in a videogame. There should always be the option of a chance of getting it in game by grinding. It's -blam!-ing stupid
-
I'm the same. I'd stopped playing Destiny when RoI 'forced' me to get a PS4--- and when I got one, I discovered /better/ games to play. FOTL was fun last year, and I was actually looking forward to the mad grind again... ...oh wait, it's fully Cancerous pay-to-play this year and there was no more to play after 15 minutes. The part-timer who put this event together (..it really seems like a minimal amount of work was done) didn't get a second opinion that would have told him/her/it/xenu that it would fail to get people back in to the declining franchise.

3 AntwortenHopefully this is a watershed moment,bungie have pushed the reward to spend ratio too far,people are getting nothing in return from reasonsble spends. And what a con the ghost ghost was,if you bring it into hand it looks like a normal ghost.
-
11 AntwortenRewards were shit. If Bungie thought I would either A) grind two more characters, or B) buy silver to get items, they were sorely mistaken.

1 AntwortenIf these quests aren't daily then my Festivities are over

2 AntwortenI was soooooo hyped to but now it's been ruined
-
2 AntwortenI was so exited to grind for the cute little ghost shells so l logged in bright and early before work to look how the quest would work...it's the same boring quest but with very little reward incentive as you only seem to get the same boring masks from last year and a 30 minute consumable. Then when I found out all the new and good stuff is only available through purchase I really felt cheated. Sad that for the most part our addiction to this game leads to disappointment more often than not. I have college, bills and rent to pay for, I'm not about to spend money on any of it.

Festival of the Lo$t. Fixed it for you.

The way they structured this is pretty shady. Its essentially gambling for the one to three items that are really desirable. I dropped some cash hoping to get the ghost ghost. Didn't end up getting it. Probably the last time I'll be using silver in this game. It's sad too. I used to buy something once in awhile to show my support for the continued development the live team does. After this I wont be. Not until they set things up so that you can just buy the ghosts directly. Candy Crush is more strait forward with how you buy things than Destiny is right now. That's incredibly disappointing and sad.

The worst part is you can get the same items twice, the game's too badly programmed to stop it from happening apparently. At least if it happens when you get an exotic engram you can shard it and that's useful. As near as i can tell 99 percent of the masks and the ghosts are all behind the paywall as i have yet to see one drop anywhere. I got one ghost and was hoping for the other but no luck and i'm not giving them more cash. They should at least let us keep the damned broom to fly around on when this is over. They finally give us something fun and silly and they want to take it away in a week. The festival is really like Halloween in that it's over in a single day with nothing to do afterwords but look at the costume and figure out how to store it.

4 AntwortenBearbeitet von Heidegger: 10/26/2016 10:21:47 AMI believe it's once per character so we can get three free boxes. Anyways last year was better because they allowed us to keep two masks for free. This year you have a chance to get three new masks but with the loot table its very unlikely. Edit: I'm going to check if Eva's masks have rotated, hopefully they rotate daily.
-
4 AntwortenIt's likely weekly so 6 free treasures
-
3 AntwortenHopefully these micro transactions actually contribute to something in the long run. People are going to spend heaps it's only fair that maybe the first destiny 2 dlc is free ..

Festival of the lost money.

Nope that's pretty much it. Was like this last year except you started out with a random mask instead of a scripted one. I wouldn't really care for a cash grab event like this one if it literally wasn't the only one besides srl that they do per year...
