Slow Clap and Carlton Dance are 500 Silver? Really? -blam!- you Bungie/Activision.
Title says it all. Leave your thoughts.
Edit: I don't care about the specific emotes. I don't want them. But them making the most wanted ones, which were requested by the community, require you to buy them for real money. That's a real middlefinger to all the community members.
It is so incredibly pathetic that people think I am upset because I can't afford it. That is the dumbest thing people can say about stuff like this. Shows the lack of intelligence just perfectly.
Edit 2:
I am honestly stunned by the amount of stupid comments like "lol I got 'em. u mad?" or "stop whining You Child".
But I'm happy there are some normal people out there that aren't blind and immediatly offended if you say something against optional microtransactions.

3 RepliesThe more desirable the emotes that you actually have to pay real money for are, the more likely people will spend money to buy them, and that means more free missions and dlc stuff for everyone. So fûck you and your entitlement.
-
People kept clamoring and yelling at the top of their lungs for the sarcastic clap/Carlton emotes. What else was going to happen?
-
Sucks, but whatever. I didn't buy any emotes, still have my 400 silver. I won't buy any emotes. At the rate this game is going I probably won't buy anything else from it.
-
Give the people what they want[spoiler]just have the good sense to charge them for it[/spoiler]
-
Lol they got the idea from us on these forums then charge us 20$ to buy it. I bought add ons because for me its not alot of money I'm fortunate enough to have a decent job but i just feel ripped off. So no more add ons for me.
-
Great post man bungie greed at its finest I was actually surprised they gave us some free silver

1 ReplyBump this for people to see. So I have been playing Destiny every since it came out. And they have brought these purchases to Destiny. Well. I did my research, and I saw people suffering. Some wanted the dance, but didn't want to pay. Others just said screw this, and left. Well. For all of you who don't want to pay, I have something for you. I may sound like a bot, but trust me, this is 100% legit. I did it yesterday. So Bing rewards(I know, Bing sucks) is having a promotional thing. So I looked. A $5 Xbox Live card for free. You just sign up. Here is what I did 1.Signed up 2. They sent me a code which I put in 3. They emailed my code to me which was 100% legit 4. I erased my account. Hope this gets you those dances guys! Not sure about PS4 players though.

Ha, there was a thread like this a few days ago without even having the blam you bungie, it had a ton of upvotes and replies, it got deleted by "ninja justice" they don't care.
-
Well they did give everyone enough [b]free[/b] silver to buy two of the "rare" emotes. So that was a [b]free[/b] bonus they weren't required to do, but decided to give anyway. On top of that, if they made the most sought after emotes cheap enough to get with the free silver allotment, what money would there be for them to make? I don't know. It makes sense to me. Honestly I'm surprised a few others weren't "legendary" like the one where you fall to your knees for example

5 RepliesDestiny: $60 Expansion Pass: $35 TTK: $40 Oh you want to dance? That's gonna be $5.
-
Its simply Business.
-
It had been different if it was gear, but emotes? No, people taunting me can still be danced on when their characters are dead, so I see no problem unless you are part of a Destiny Synchronized Dance Team that are on their way to the finals in The Tower Tournament and need that Carlton dance like those cheerleaders needed jazz hands. But, making emotes that people really want to pay for? Good job, Bungie.
-
Don't worry I get what you mean
-
Honestly pal.... You need to get over it. If you want the Carlton that badly then just buy it. They were always going to have some be more valuable than others. They want ppl to spend. They are a business after all.
-
1 ReplyTo be fair they didn't have to give anybody silver, but they did so people could buy some of the emotes.
-
I prefer the grieving I kill a guy or his buddies too I start grieving "Omg what have I done!" :_[ then I go to tbag town & dance
-
It's £8 for them both, yea in a way it's shit but oh well it doesn't effect gameplay at all
-
I knew there would be a post like this eventually... Bungie gave us 16 Rare Emotes and two Legendaries, and gave us enough Silver to buy two Rares. Are you really going to complain over two Emotes? Seriously?
-
2 RepliesEdited by TyresiusMordekai: 10/15/2015 3:36:26 PMI was awarded 500 silver on patch day so I didn't have to buy silver with my money to get the carlton dance. But seriously, you dont have to spend money. Wait a few months for them to give you more silver. also, if you're aware they're optional and you dont HAVE to spend money, why get butt hurt?
-
The best part of it is when people use the slow clap in PvP after lagging so badly they take machine gun shots from three people and rockets from two without dying. Or four Invective shots to the face. Or, well, you get the idea.

-
If you have that much of a need to be a special snowflake, I can´t really feel any empathy. I´m glad that we got silver to get 2 emotes for free that we can have in all characters. How about considering that before going on a rant?
-
I already bought the emots and i understand your point it's your own opinion and i respect it .
-
2 RepliesIf you seriously have an issue with the most wanted emotes being the costly ones, you should check out the basics of economics. Try wikipedia for a start....
