Final edit:this post was originally about the "something better" that DeeJ tweeted/posted about for year one players. It appear that it is a new GHOST SHELL, SHADER, EMBLEM, and SPARROW.
Thank you all for your comments.
Awhile back, when the community was in an uproar over the price packages for the taken King, DeeJ tweeted or posted in the community update (the comment has since been removed) that year one players would receive "something better" than the emotes, etc.
This was in addition to the VIP year one package, because at the time the VIP package was already revealed. I would really like DeeJ to answer the question in regards to the something better. I would like to see this thread stay relevant until he answers the question.
I am also sending DeeJ a tweet everyday asking him this question. Let's not harass DeeJ though, okay.
I am NOT saying that year one players do or do not deserve anything special, so please, let's not turn it into an argument over that.
I am simply seeking an answer to what DeeJ put out there to calm the storm.
So DeeJ, is there still a "something better", or was that said just to calm the storm? If you can't say what it is just yet, can you al least acknowledge that it still exists, and maybe when it can be revealed?
Thank you.
Edit 1: Seems like the consensus is the moments of triumph emblem. I contend that this emblem was always a part of Bungie's plan (to keep people playing) and they are conveniently using it as the "something better".
Something better shouldn't have a bunch of requirements, in my opinion.
Edit 2: we are trending, let's keep it going and maybe we'll get a response. Thank you
Edit 3: Wow! This thread is really trending. Over 1,000 comments. I appreciate how most people are keeping the comments civiI. I appreciate everyone's input.
Edit 4: many people are suggesting the VIP rewards. Maybe it is, I thought they were announced before the "something better " statement. I may be wrong. Bungie has not said what they are doing for the people who bought the collectors editions. They did say information to come shortly. Whatever shortly means, I don't know.

5 Respuestashis something better was the triumphs and its gonna be a quote saying look at what you've accomplished guardians you've done all those tasks that new players didn't during that time, and you get this emblem and that is your something better. that's what I feel is gonna happen.

7 RespuestasI love the MoT emblem. Why? because by Year 3 or 4...you won't see em, and they'll be pretty rare. Once all the whiners and complainers are long gone, and people have stopped playing. Walking around with that emblem will be fun, having people look at it and go look it up. Stuff like that is cool, because everyone at the time whinges about how crap it is and don't bother getting it....so it becomes rarer as the years go on and a point of pride. It ain't that hard to get either.

2 RespuestasEditado por sicklecell419: 8/18/2015 8:15:28 PMIf you are leading a community that you have governance over in a sense, that contribute monetarily to your quality of life/business/wealth, and they consistently continue to support you and your company from year 1 to year 2 and so on. You as a company/leader/figure head are supposed to treat them with respect and most importantly give them special events/celebrations/rewards etc. This is done in every aspect of life, we don't even get special event days with unique adventures and jackolyte like items. Bungie doesn't care enough, they're blinded by a corporate mindset but the problem is they don't have billions of loyal customers like McDonald's, Coke, Budweiser, The United States of America, China etc.. If they keep it up, they'll never have loyal followers and perish like the great Pharoahs of Egypt trying to replenish their slave population every 6 months.

Forgive year 1 blunders, But do NOT forget. Don't preorder TTK or Destiny 2,3 etc, not until bungie proves we can trust them again

Ask on the stream tomorrow, I completely agree. I for one, haven't forgotten.

The something better is that this time they will add lube before using fist of havoc on year one player nether regions. OK that's just a joke I'm hoping for an immense vault upgrade.

7 RespuestasWow a shitty emblem I'm not wasting time farming gold chests for. Nice.

VIP rewards were announced before this statement.

2 RespuestasI think this thread is now dedicated to promises Bungie still hasn't came through on.

They lied ... Told us what we wanted to hear ... Again ... Not surprised.
-
If something better is the moments of triumphs emblem (which i wont get cause i dont raid an hate poe), and ive played since beta, then they are high. Class items are way better than an emblem.
-
They were never planning it, they just said that to distract from Luke "throw money at your screen" Smith and the shitty collector edition
-
I'm sure he'll come through

[quote]As a thank you to our most loyal fans who have reached Light Level 30 or who previously purchased Expansion I and Expansion II by August 31, 2015, you will receive an exclusive commemorative Founder’s Fortune Year 1 Emblem, Sparrow, Armor Shader and more at launch with your purchase of The Taken King[/quote] All we want to know is the details of what the "[b]and more[/b]" comprises. DeeJ has asserted that it is "something better" than the collectors edition digital content. The way I see it he should at the very least tell us when we will have access to this information, and I would be happy with the following answers: - "We will tell you in one of the streams before launch" - "We will tell you in one of the weekly updates before launch" - "We are still working on the full pack, but we will definitely tell you, somehow, before launch" - "We're not going to tell you the full details because we really want some of the VIP rewards to come as an awesome massive surprise" Just some acknowledgement of the lack of input on the topic would be a start - even if it isn't an actual announcement, just let us know that you know that we really want to know this information.
