I'm just going to put this out there, but what if they are using the money to pay all the people who work on the game, maintain servers, keep the forms running, test the game, and a bunch of other task, as well buy equipment and other items to help improve the game?

Test the game..... Considering how many things have been broken in the game I'm doubting that one
-
If you doubt then feel free to look right here https://careers.bungie.com/en-US/Careere Since there are currently 6 openngs in their testing/QA area
-
Then it's money waisted all around...
-
Here comes the Bungie defense force... Most people have already dropped $80+. Gimme a break

Give me a break. Do you keep the books at Bungie? They are doing just fine without EverCurse. EverCurse is pure GREED!
-
No I do not keep the books at Bungie, nor am I saying what I said is the reason. I do not know the reason, but I am just suggestion that it might not be due to greed or money hogging. As for @BloodFetcher, I am simply suggesting that when people buy silver from Eververse, it gives them more money to spend on improving the game. Again this is just a suggestion, I am not claiming it is fact.

I donsee your point and it could be legit but for a company that grew three times as big I expected more from these dlcs. The main game did a good job on many areas so i do give cudos but I do agree with the post. Bungie said it was to help with dlcs since we had to pay so much but in d2 they arent doing a great job. Theres a reason why they are loosing players by the thousands and i can tell you right now that those ghosts and ships could have been in game loot. For a looter shooter tell me how many exotic ghosts and sparrows do we get in game? The dawning armor and shaders should have been enough to be in the dawning. Geck even that giving exotic emote is fine. But shop and sparrows that i disagree. Theres way too much loot in eververse to buy than there is shooter looter drops.

True, I think they should have kept the sparrows and ships the way they were. One of the big issues I see with all that is happening though is not necessarily with the game itself. A lot of fans find out what is happening and the go on a rant about it, demanding that Bungie fix it. Yet, I'm sure that many still just spend the money on silver, and buy the DLC. If anything, the players should be requesting reasons behind the problems, or come together and decide not to buy the DLC at all. I'm sure many people here complain about the DLC content lock bought the DLC without a second thought, and then just complained. That is useless. I saw the same thing on a dawning rant video. Here this guy goes on for 12 minutes saying how Bungie is greedy, and just using the Dawning as a money grab, yet he spend the money for 2800 silver. This is a big problem I see since all that happens is Bungie offering an apology. Instead of just complain, back up what you are complaining about by not spending the money or help by offering actual ways to fix the game.

I do agree about backing up what you say. As for giving ccritisism I think we all do give bungie ways to fix things but it goes in one ear and out the other. I feel like bungie isnt doing a good job with endgame rewards. Before the dawning I 100% knew this was gona happen. Everything is at eververse. Theres nothing to grind for in game. I bet you they even took light level off of the ghost from D1 just to do this “cosmetic” thing in D2.
-
My point is, if the entire playerbase just refused to stop purchasing Silver, until they actually fixed eververse, then if Bungie wants/needs the money from it, they will eventually fix it. Instead it seems like an entire crowd just shotuing angrily at Bungie all at once, or at least from what I have seen. A lot of people just want to slander them, instead of looking at why the problems are occuring, or eve just refusing to be apart of it.
-
I agree with you there. Well hopefully we can still reach bungies ears
-
They are probably already working on it, and I would bet the problem is alot more complicated than we know. All these problems could just as well be the smoke, that we see while they wrok to put out the fire.

What the hell did we just buy a FULL PRICE GAME FOR PLUS DLC just to have micro transactions like a free to play mobile game
