[quote]Based on the last weekly update, we will no longer have access to Weekly Nightfall Strikes, Weekly Heroic Strikes, Daily Strikes and Daily PVP events unless we buy TTK.
(Shortened to only convey the core of the issue since this is the point that most, not all, of the commenters seem to have missed from the weekly update of 8/27)
EDIT4: This is for all the people commenting that have not read the weekly update, or that in reading it failed to understand what it said:
Per the weekly update, all modifications to the weekly and daily events are indented under the heading of "Escalation". The listing of upcoming changes is prefaced by the statement,
[quote]Once you’ve completed the new story campaign, a whole new suite of endgame activities will beckon.[/quote]
And after defining all of the changes to this already included daily and weekly PVE & PVP game content, they make the following statement,
[quote]Did we mention that you’ll need to confront the immediate threat first? Oryx lies between you and these challenges. You'll need to survive his wrath to partake in the new endgame[/quote]
The reference to "new endgame content" is not only to new TTK-exclusive content in the format of the update, but to the revamped daily and weekly events overall. So according to the weekly update, you will not get access to any of these daily or weekly activities until you complete the TTK story, e.g., purchase that game. Many people are arguing that this is not the case and that it will be the same as the first two expansions and access to any of these events will only be restricted when a particular strike is from TTK, but that is contrary to what the Weekly Update from Bungie states.[/quote]
Yes. Without purchasing TTK, it appears you will no longer be able to participate in endgame activities. Unless Bungie specifically comes out and says so. We will know for sure in 13 days.

Yep, but watch out - 90% of the people on here do not understand that this is the case, but that are still willing to argue irrationally that it is the same as the first two expansions and I am just too cheap to buy TTK, which I have already done...

VoG, Crota and PoE will still be available. I assume IB and ToO as well. But the NEW, Level 40 Taken King endgame (NF, Raid, Dreadnought, etc) should only be available to those who purchased TTK. Logical.

ToO is getting revamped as well. It will probably take place on the new maps as well.

Edited by SteelCityBattler: 9/2/2015 6:56:31 PMIf the second nightfall in October is the Nexus and you do not buy TTK, you can't play it according to the update! What don't you understand? The same goes for all daily and weekly PVP and PVE activities according to the update...

The same goes for all daily and weekly PVP and PVE activities according to the update...[/quote] Hence why I put NF I the list of new, endgame content. I was agreeing with you.

Thank you for that, but this entire post is the result of Bungie using imprecise language to convey information. Regardless of what you intended to say, this statement: [quote]But the NEW, Level 40 Taken King endgame (NF, Raid, Dreadnought, etc) should only be available to those who purchased TTK. Logical.[/quote] only excludes the new TTK content. In other words, if someone who has the first three games did not buy TTK, they could still play Nexus if it was the nightfall, e.g., NOT [quote]NEW, Level 40 Taken King endgame [/quote] according to what you did say, but that is not the case according to the update. THIS is the entire point of the post....

THIS is the entire point of the post....[/quote] Nightfalls as we know them, are no more. Assuming you can get to level 40 without TTK (as Bungie stated with XP), Guardians will be able to participate in the Nightfall activity equal to their most resent DLC purchase. Therefore, if they only own up to the HoW, they will not be able to participate in any Taken King specific NF's.
