There is no bad guy here.
- Activision didn't screw up Bungie.
- Bungie didn't "betray" anyone.
- Exclusivity has been a thing for years (and no one's complained)
- Business is business.
- You deserve nothing.
This entitlement thing has gotten way out of hand. I get it, you've owned every Halo game ever made (though if the stats hold true about age and this website, most of you are lying about that too). Are you only loyal to Bungie because they were with Microsoft?
You say you're Bungie fans.....but you act like Microsoft fans.
I know, you're hurt. You're upset that your (and my) console of choice didn't get picked first. You took a chance and this particular company is partnering with a publisher who, I'm sure collectively, thought it was a good move to go with Sony.
Now don't paint me naive, I'm sure that Destiny being first on PS4 and COD being first on Xbox was a factor in that decision for Activision........a company........that exists to make money........as all companies do. There's nothing wrong with that.
And while we're at, it let's drop the whole, "Bungie just doing this to reach out to the Playstation fanbase". True, Playstation owners didn't have Halo, but they knew about it. They know Bungie.
PS4 will get Destiny exclusives. That's the way it is. I feel as if some people think that at the end of the day Bungie's gonna pull out some super secretive "Xbox Super Loyal Halo Fan" surprise and all will be forgiven from the Xbox community. Would that be cool? Yes! Will it happen.....Probably not in the way you guys would like, if it happens at all.
Let's collectively comes to terms with fact that if you want to experience every aspect of this game in it's full glory, you need to buy a PS4. They will have unique armor, guns, and multilayer maps that you can't on Xb1 and I'm fine with this.
You guys only complain because you care.
You care about Bungie.
You cared about Halo.
You care about Destiny.
You care about Marty.
You care about Joe.
That's admirable and says a lot about Bungie and the community it's built.
Let go of the past and look to the future of Bungie and enjoy the ride...........and I'm sure it'll be one hell of a ride.
Sincerely,
A Bungie Fan
[b]EDIT:[/b] It's looking like it's confirmed that the PS4 exclusives are timed exclusives. So, let's all get back to speculating about raids, fighting about 30 vs 60 fps, and most importantly enjoying the alpha (or videos of the alpha) and getting ready for Bungie Day, the beta, and beyond!

1 RespuestaNow, Destiny is the exact example of what will happen to future gaming. All online. Only single player. They will force us to buy multiple televisions, consoles, and disks in order to play with our friends and families. This is the future. They will begin to leave last-gen consoles behind, and nothing will be in their way. We may be gamers, but truly, we have no power on our own. We need to band together, and bring the fight to them!

This is still a worry? Timed exclusives people should not worry about and now it is all confirmed to be timed exclusive, I have no reason to worry, I only worry when content is made available to one platform and never another. As long as i get the same content as PS users just later I'm happy
-
Timed exclusives are helping fund Bungie and future projects, I have no problem with that

I couldn't agree more

What everyone needs to hear, finally. -clap soundtrack-

Yes thank you. This is what it is. It says what had to be said.
-
Amen my brotha! Nailed it right on the head.

Bungie just wants a fresh start. It doesn't matter what they've done, but what they can do.

8 RespuestasWe're paying the same price, we should get the same amount of content. I could care less about the early beta, but exclusive? Not cool. Timed exclusives would be much more fair.
-
8 RespuestasDisagree you don't just toss away 15+ years of gaming and say MEH and if you truly were a fan of bungie then you would see that
-
2 RespuestasMy response to these threads is that I played Oni on the PS2 and deserve a bigger reward because I've been a fan longer. Nothing else seems to work on these fools.
-
2 RespuestasSo if you didn't register your account as soon as the first halo came out you're lying? I played all the halos but didn't get XBL until halo 3 sooo. I just played halo 1 and 2 campaign over and over

ALPHA in a few hours !

4 RespuestasAll good points, except for the exclusivity. I'm fine with the Playstation players getting some exclusives, but its the MASSIVE amount of exclusives their getting, and the fact that we get NOTHING. Playstation gets sets of armor, and we don't even get a pair of boots. Hell, they get their own freaking map. Also [quote]Activision didn't screw up Bungie.[/quote] Lies. This is pretty much Activision's fault. Plus, they're evil so... yeah.

2 RespuestasEditado por Tu Chocolate Caliente: 6/12/2014 7:30:45 AMGreat points and i agree with them all, but maybe you should aknowledge those PS fanboys that keep spamming these threads and fueling the nightmare the console war is. Personally i don't give a sh[i]it[/i] about the exclusive guns, weapons and armor or the strike mision, the things that actually bother me are the suddenly announced alpha that it was supposed to be only for a selective few but deej confirmed that anyone who signs up for the alpha will play Destiny. "[i]But the alpha is riddled with bugs[/i]", all the videos and twitch streams i had seen had not shown a single bug, to me both alpha and beta are glorified demos for the masses to try. My biggest concern, is how they are handling the PR with the community, They keep ignoring xbox fans and im not talking about the content, im talking about the communication between Developer-Consumer, many xbox fans are thrilled for Destiny but the lack of gameplay videos in the xbox, not adding them to their conversations is frustating, [i]but they talked with phil Spencer, larry hryb played destiny, destiny is going to be 1080p and 30 Fps[/i]. Great, beautiful we exist among them but they barely even show us we exist in their plans. Now, plenty of people say they are fans of bungie since halo and thats wrong, yes we did enjoy halo for 10 years but it would have been the same if Halo came for the ps2 back then. So bungie trying to introduce playstation to their world is nothing bad. Now for those saying that [b]Xbox had Halo[/b] and playstation didn't and using it as an excuse for everything is stupid. What if naughty dog broke out from Sony, then start developing on multiplatform games and they partner with activision, and lets say that they develop a multiplatform game that looks amazing and Xbox gets a lot of beautiful content, maybe a early access to a beta test and playstation just gets a beta date and the game. Playstation owners would be exactly the same way xbox owners feel now. To measure it up [b]Exclusive content on multiplatform games sucks.[/b] its business i get it but its safe to say that paying for a 60$ game that for the other console its the same price + more (it doesnt matter how stupid the content is) feels weird. This community has gone to shit after E3, i lost hype for destiny because of it, i was excited once but now it feels like a good game i'll try. I hope the beta changes my mind. Please stop this nonsense people call a console war. Bungie please listen to all your community, not half of it. Xbox lets understand that its just a few pieces of small content, i do feel the same pain but for the sudden alpha and lack of xbox presence on destiny. Playstation lets try to be reasonable with others, no need to spam on hateful threads about how whiny we are, not all gamers are whiny brats. Lets hope Destiny is an amazing game, i wanna be hyped again, but it just won't come back to me. Lets forget about the hate and be excited for games, that was the point of E3 after all. -from an xbox gamer. My grammar sucks because im using my phone.

Indeed. Great post man.

Well said.

Well bloody said!

I really wish a lot of people here would take a deep breath and look at it from this point of view as well - as this is getting totally out of hand and is going to totally obscure coverage that we've been dying to see.
