The issue is not the marks as they can be earned it is the principle we were lied to.
Yes, they lied.
Game infirmer: "Are we going to get to keep our bounties?"
Answer: "yes"
They could have clarified. They had that chance to answer "All except IB and ToO."
If an interview ever asks someone at bungie "Do you like players hoarding bounties and engrams?"
They answer "no"
Then we can revisit that point issue.
Right now we have evidence the question was asked and that was the answer.
It was not an ambiguous ? It was strait forward.
Here is another extreme then:
I hold you hostage and tell you I will let you go. I let you go in the middle of the desert with no food or water. You naturally thought someplace safe...nope...but you are free. You will be dead without food or water but I didn't lie you are free.
Similar principle taken to the extreme.
Communication is all we were looking for not poof they are gone.

AND for the record, I lost some of those bounties too. But I don't turn into a bitch when stuff doesn't go my way.

The bounties being gone we have to accept that because they are gone. I'm not happy about that but everyone will live. I'm not bitching about that. The communication is the issue. Tell me in the Gamer Informer interview Yes, except IB and ToO bounties. Hell, I would have accepted them being vague like they where with exotic engrams...umm..they might...tee heee... Just don't tell me one thing and do the opposite. I don't think that is too much to ask.

Edited by Chrismhoop: 9/9/2016 8:57:10 PMLike i said if you expect them to get every detail correct off the top of their head an interview every time, your bound to be disappointed.

That is a good point and I can accept that if it was a E3 or PAX or impromptu interview like that. You know how Deej did those at some of the events recently. Since Game Informer had exclusive rights to these interviews I would hope....hope...that they were given a copy of the ?'s before hand and the Bungie/Activision publicist reviewed them and all that stuff before the interview. I would hope they preped for the interview....hope...key word...or assume... We will never know how all of that stuff transpired. If bungie issues an apology for miscommunication I'm sure the user base will be forgiving for the mistake. We all make those. Unfortunately the stance seems to be right now..."sorry, suck it up or f#$% you deal with it" that is going to make everyone more mad. I would even accept it if someone gives another interview or stream where another bungie rep. says this is where we told you we were taking them.....that would be proof that these guys just made a mistake or if bungie didn't want to admit to that then they could say this is where we told you they would be gone and these guys were just being vague not to give too much info.

My personally I take these interviews and stuff for what they really are, interest generators and hype builders. If you take the prelaunch info as law you can expect to be dissappointed. I have learned this now not just about destiny but video games in general these days. Because of that I think I'm more able to just enjoy the game and the community for what it is. AWESOME! And I am willing to look passed "mistakes" like this especially considering how quickly the game evolves and how it seems to becoming something new everyday in a way that few if any other games are!

They miss stuff and miss points in interviews all the time bro, I'm sure you miss details in conversations as well. Just because at the time of he interview they weren't thinking about iron banner bounties, doesn't mean they committed some kind of treason to you. If that was enough to get your panties in a wad, you need to grow up.
