I was going to buy the new ninja turtles games, I read activision... no this time, I wont buy that.

What is with all the emotional use of victimization? Bungie got in bed with Activision ok. Let's stop being fanboys and see the bigger picture.

Don't give two ticks about Activision I Play destiny as a game to play w friends Plus I play tons of other games Furthermore CoD has been and is dead to me since MW3

This is business. The same thing that allows your parents to pay the mortgage

Never thought of it like this

I've got the meat sweats.

Bump^ x10. The 13 year old fanboys defending this are the reason this practice has become the norm. programme the brain dead kids and mum and dads money will flow after.

[quote][u]Activision's guide to making profit[/u] 1. Enslave popular company with a good reputation eg. Bungie and its halo series 2. Make company produce large game and hype it up through small things eg. destiny poster in halo 3. Spend ridiculous amounts of money on making and advertising the game 3. Introduce the game at events like e3 and get the producers to overhype it as much as possible eg. destiny being open world *cough* invisible walls *cough* 4. Have the game cut into multiple smaller pieces and later introduce it as DLC 5. If the developers say cutting up the game will ruin the story, have them make a new story with Peter Dinklage involved Optional: have original story cut into hundreds of digital cards only accessible by logging on to a website 6. Release the game and block out any reviews so they don't affect people's opinion 7. Release the DLC and time gate content to keep the game alive 8. Release an actually new DLC that makes all previous content irrelevant yet make people buy it anyway eg. TTK 9. Later make multiple animations then sell them at absurd prices AKA micro transactions even though you've milked enough money anyway. 10. Assure fan base its all cosmetic and give them free micro transaction currency to get them hooked 11. Completely drought the community of content and ignore them at all costs. 12. Only fix glitches that might effect money, eg. Free SRL booklet glitch 13. If community becomes TOO anxious for content release small events then remove them eg. SRL and Crimson doubles 14. Eventually give real content that's really just been recycled eg. Taken winters run, old y1 exotics and prison of elders Optional: make real new content eg. Blighted chalice strike 15. Slowly allow micro transactions to include questionable cosmetics eg. Armor with unique perks, rep boosters and sparrows 16. To keep players at bay allow them to obtain these items by playing the game, this will also result in profit as these people will likely purchase future content if they're hooked on That is all, now go become a billionaire edit: EA im up for hire btw[/quote] Games had me hooked from day one, but the recent IB sucked ass. Glitchy as all hell, unloaded my gun point blank then melee=no damage. Opponent then melee me and I die. Had my worst outing ever and yes I sucked but the bugs in the game ruined it for me.

All companies are constantly building assets. The assets get moved around and released when ready (or mostly ready). I'm fine with the game and where it is at this point though it is stagnant right now.

Clearly i have upset multiple butt hurt fanboys who's only solution is to mute this cuz I upset their feelings lmao

You, I or anyone can post this or something similar and it's like pissing in the wind. All the sheep out there like being blind with their "That's how all game developers are" and "Why are you complaining" and all their rubbish. These developers test and implement all they can get away with, short minded fools and kids using daddy's credit card are the norm and they take advantage of it. They are the majority plain and simple. They reach for the 2 gallon bottle without calculating if it's indeed cheaper than buying two 1 gallon bottles, they're the ones holding up traffic for no reason, they're the ones who pay $7 for an emote that does not even represent 0.001% of a $60 game. They fail to understand the value of money and if a precedent of overpaying is established, you're stuck with it.

A) half of these sound like every game company ever B) lol at "armor with unique perks"
