If I’m understanding Bungie correctly they mentioned that the new season will bring things like Iron Banner and Faction Rallies and will have weapons with random rolls. You do not need the DLC to experience these events. So, technically...they were correct. Random rolls are a free update...
-
13 RespuestasSo random weapon rolls are part of the free update. The weapons eligible for the random rolls are locked behind the Forsaken DLC. Random rolls = $$$ Unless i missed something...weapon randomization is not a part of the free update.

4 RespuestasTo clarify, the ACTUAL rumor that people were worried about has been confirmed. https://www.pcgamer.com/bungie-on-why-cayde-6-must-stay-dead-and-how-the-raid-will-be-the-ultimate-culmination-of-destiny-2-forsaken/ Y1 weapons and armors will remain static. I guess the only thing I’ve been mongering is truth bombs. I’ll let you in on a secret. People like me understand the shifty way in which Bungie advertises. Read the article in which they say that they’re finally making that 13th Better Devils more interesting. A couple paragraphs later, they admit that Better Devils isn’t changing. Your 1300th Better Devils will be the same as your first. This is what people like me picked up on days ago while people like you tried to make us feel stupid. Same thing happened with “new raid activity.” End rant.

Oh good I get to keep all the unremarkable guns I have
-
4 RespuestasDid you even play Destiny 1? If you did then you should know by now that this is a legitimate concern from the community.
-
I’m going to preface this by saying I am buying Forsaken. Y1 weapons not getting random rolls is a bit of a bummer, but okay, maybe putting focus on all the new stuff is better anyhow. However, given that this is supposed to be a free update for all, I think people who don’t buy the DLC should still have access to some new weapons and new slots and mods, so they can fully experience the impact of the changes. I think that will foster some much needed goodwill and if people like the changes it will encourage them towards a purchase of the expansion and I hope Bungie recognise and intend to do this
-
Yup, original fears were confirmed. Old weapons wont get rando rolls. Now it just depends on whether they are giving any of the rando rolled guns to those without forsaken
-
Bump (just because of your edit lol)!
-
Gear being left behind is only one concern. This article only states that I can infuse my old gear. However, if random roles are only part of new gear drops then my old gear at that point will be pointless. Unless the gear changes solely involve mods. I would hate to think gear sets that could only be acquired during limited time/events would be made obsolete(ie dawning, optimacy, etc). I do however remember TTK from D1 and abandoning the game because I had to regrind for gear. Didn’t come back until ROI.
-
The Rumor going around was all year one gear would not get updated to the new system and that is 100% correct so........

8 RespuestasEditado por SpongyMallard7: 6/13/2018 6:38:08 PMSo the MAJOR thing people wanted, gear mattering, is locked behind the DLC? WOW, Bungie, GG. You lost me there. I'm talking abut random rolls. NOT new stuff that comes with the DLC.
-
1 RespuestaYet random rolls are not part of the free QoL update as it will only affect Y2 guns and armor. So we have this massive Y1 loot pool of boring infusion fodder that will make overflow the Y2 loot. They have yet to make the 10th or 13th better devils different from the 1st.

Editado por BERSEKAEL: 6/13/2018 4:28:58 PMbasically, if they didnt do that we would have like 2 or 3 guns only, the new ones
-
13 RespuestasI'm glad to see Bungie didn't pull the same shit they did in Destiny TTK expansion. Can you imagine the hate if they did pull the same thing again?? It would be nuts on all the forums
-
6 RespuestasDoesn't matter, we ain't gonna buy this crap , we saw superb games coming worth of our money, no more bungie crap
-
The D1Y1 exotics are "carrying over" as well for $70.
-
11 RespuestasBut it won’t carry over to D3 LOL

1 RespuestaWhy do I feel like I saw this exact thread a year ago
-
1 RespuestaThey said the same thing about d1 stuff....not being negative just my opinion
-
1 RespuestaEditado por ken31cayman: 6/13/2018 12:15:33 PMBut now we [i]don't[/i] want them to carry over. This is bs. Why does Bungie always make us play their way?? [spoiler]:-)[/spoiler]
-
4 RespuestasThey're making it sound like taking year 1 stuff into year 2 is something new and no other game does it. lol Steve Cotton talks as though everyone is stupid. Bungie are p*ss takers.
-
11 RespuestasAwesome, looks like my Ikelos shotgun is going to Destroy everything(until bungie nerfs it, and they will)
-
Good. I’m happy 😁 and only looking forward to September now
-
3 RespuestasBut they aren't getting random rolls like people think they are. Paywalled for gear

11 RespuestasWhen people call out "haters" on being wrong once it kinda shows how much more often they've been right...
