Deej a month ago:
"Year one players will still be able to play year one content as they normally would"
More proof he just speaks a steady stream of bullshit.
This is flat out fraud, in case anybody's keeping score at home.
Tell you what, I'm hearing way more that makes sense to me than I'm comfortable with in this. Damned interesting watch, and probably something we guardians would do well to watch and remember when dealing with these two companies.
Watch "Destiny: The Hardcore Gamer's Slot Machine - The Point" on YouTube

Another GREAT Lost Sols video. Really sums the point of view here very well.

BBB and FTC complaints filed! File these!!! They bury our posts and ignore us here. We've watched them do it for the last year. Time to try a new method to prompt some ACTUAL LISTENING. (Deej. Talking to you here. )

Bungie tries to spoonfeed everyone bullshit, and only the people with common sense smack the spoon away while all these desticles now only eat from the spoon, but try and attack the ones who would smack the spoon away

Thank you for participating in the "destiny 10yr market test project" 1: Sell as little of original game as possible (check) 2: Sell held back content as dlc (check) 3: Sell new dlc at cost of a complete game (check) 4: Restrict non ttk players access to enforce sale (BIG check) 5: Quietly restrict account access on certain consoles, enforcing multiple purchases for one family (check & high five to legal team) 6: Ignore posts with credible questions, hope apathy kicks in, continue with the new improved "Highwayman" business model.

I agree with what you're saying to the fullest extent. I bought ttk, but this morning i was looking at how much i would be left out if i didn't. You should still be able to play nightfalls. You should still be able to play every crucible playlist that was available before. I think Bungie/Activision have it in their heads that if you were be planning to be playing destiny beyond this point, you were most likely going to get ttk anyway. Or at least thats what they'd like us to think.

What exact content has been removed? You can still play all the strikes and missions you always could. You just don't get the daily and weekly rewards, because those are current activities.
-
Only 96 complaints to BBB filed since Destiny. That's a diminutive number compared to the millions playing it.
-
You do realize they do not have to care what teh BBC or FTC says ever. they are by no means controlled by the BBC or FTC in what they do with their game. And teh FTC can do nothing for it is not fraud by any means. They never said you would get to play it all.. just that you could play.
-
I think I will file myself. Alot of my friends warned me and quit a few months back and the last few months have been an eye opener. From verbally insulting the community to overpriced dlc and now this, not to mention all the nonsense they pulled year one. Then recently even bungie employees are suing them? Its just rediculous all around and i cant be a part of that at all. Even if they fix what we already own im done with giving them my money and playing a game run like this. I have self respect.
-
If you think it's fraud, go to court.
-
I wanna thank you hettar for bringing this stuff to my attention, I hopped on to see the update and felt cheated just for the fact I missed a lot, but after watching those videos I realise this is shady business practice and I have contacted BBB, I hope we win out in the end otherwise I will boycott bungie on playstation and that 10 year plan can stop when they give up. I won't be a victim, and I hope you won't either. stay smart and safe brother in what ever you do.

I think you can still play all of the original content bro. If I wanted to, I can start up any of the original strikes and missions. I can also play both the original raids and the Prison of elders. Also, for the shitty crucible, you can even play the original classic game modes. To top this off, there are even quests that reward you for going back and doing these original game missions. Creating this post is just a way for you to complain about how you don't want to pay money for content that you want. You are being the exact opposite of a fanboy.

End User Agreement: https://www.bungie.net/en/View/Bungie/eula South Park Season 15 Episode 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sglZGSwK6ow Legal Advise: http://www.yellowpages.com/ Agreed, shutting you out of the game is not good business. Some of the changes they made are dumbed down versions of previously exciting content. However, you will not win this battle with Bungie or Activision. The VERY FIRST paragraph says the only way to get a refund is within the first 30 days of purchase.

Hello, I am a huge fan of Destiny. My Dad won't let me get The Taken King because of money issues, and I want you to know how unfair you guys are being to people who don't buy the Taken King. You feel alone and stupid. This game is useless without the expansion and it shows how you guys really don't care about the Bungie community but only the Money in out wallets. I have never had this problem with any other game including HALO! Also I am not the only one who is upset with the way you guys are handling things, especially in the forums on the app. I hope you see and recognize this . I don't know why you don't do free DLC's. I'm telling you that if you did free DLC's or don't lock out and take away content from people who already bought the original game and had that content originally this will/could be one of the most successful video franchises in history. I just feel excluded from the game as well as other people who don't have the expansion. I love this game and I don't want to lose it and I know you guys want to succeed as a company because many people are leaving this game for good and I don't blame them. No DLC=No point of playing.

Original post we have here.

Edited by Disclaim: 9/18/2015 7:50:13 PMIts true you just don't get to play year two content because year one content is being upgraded to year two. 1. destiny takes money to run on servers. 2. Buying the TTK supports bungie. Buying destiny is like when you register your car to drive on the road. If you got a car registered to drive, you would renew after a year. If you bought destiny in year one, you would buy expansion after a year. --- You are lucky they even let you play because driving on a expired license is illegal. maybe they should just make a subscription to play destiny? then you could complain about expansions costing money over time.

A video I found.

I agree with you but remember nightfall is end game content you can't get to end game without dlc
-
Got confirmation on my FTC complaint, might have to re-file the bbb one if I don't get an email soon. Just an update. Get clicking guardians!
-
Bungie is pushing away players who don't buy DLC. And why would those players come back for "Destiny 2"?
-
Lol man this game is a joke and bungie is the only one laughing because there getting that money, so with that being said do you think destiny is worth the money you paid for ? 60 dollars 3 hours of gameplay and a crappy multiplayer experience let me :)
-
Edited by eviltedi: 9/18/2015 5:45:18 PMI got an update from Warframe for being with them for a year, I got a little present for my ship and some free in game content, and guess what ? Nothing was removed, we actually got more.
-
I hope you know that Activision is the real problem here. They've slaved Bungie into this. They call the shots now. That's why so many Bungie employees have quit before the game and even now. Deej is not the be held responsible he is only doing what his boss tells him. He's only the community manager. Damn if you're going to be upset and bitch out, at least do it toward the right people. Activision.

Aww mommy wouldnt buy u the dlc
