Sparrow racing just a cleverly disguised micro transaction promotional event.

Want a snazzy sparrow get your cash out. **edit** Just read on here that to get the best loot you have to buy a book for 10 dollars, is this true?

  • Sparrow Racing is Bungie running out of ideas to keep people playing. Gotta do better than that, folks. Give us brand new story missions on never before seen levels( that aren't old ones but backwards), new voice overs and introduce new characters and then we'll talk. Seems like all the folks that put this game down was right.

        • Yes, as is any and all of the live events that are released to this game. They all are marketing schemes to get players to give out more money for vanity items to brag about having.

            • Not reall disguised as anything. It's a microtransaction event. Simples.

              • Well with all the silver bought it pays for free dlcs for you! So would you rather have to pay 20 bucks for a dlc or not do anything and not get new emotes (where you can probably earn them anyways) and have it paid for you so stop bitching

                • [quote]Want a snazzy sparrow get your cash out.[/quote] To everyone complaining about Tess selling sparrows... At the playstation experience Tess [i][b]isn't selling any sparrows at all. [/b][/i]Just a lottery box that gives a random sparrow from the ones you haven't earned in game yet. Obviously this is subject to change, but something to think about before every continues crying in impotent emo rage.

                  • It's not cleverly disguised. I know buying a sparrow will be a waste of $2.99. And I'm fine with that

                    • Gonna wait till its out to judge. If all the sparrows sold can be obtained through gameplay i wont have an issue with it. Otherwise i'd be disappointed to see them developing mico rewards using the profits of the silver instead of actually making a damn dlc. Silver to promote more silver. Thats all the Festival of the Lost was in the end. Yes it was cool but if u wanted anything to last, money would have most likely to be spent. Only given 1 legendary mask per character, needed glue to make masks perminant, most coveted mask was only legendary. Just silver to promote buying more silver. We'll see how racing turns out.

                        Looks at characters sees two emotes. One had to be paid yet here he is ranting on the forums about microtransactions but did one himself.

                          • "Want" would be the key word there. Theres nothing forcing you to buy it and the sparrows will be no faster then the ones you can already get in game so i fail to see a problem here. Bungie make games to make money and its well within their rights to bring out micro transactions and i couldnt care less if they bring more out as long as it doesnt turn into pay to win. Get over it.

                            • Not really a disguise. It's to fund more of these events. If you like the live events happening, then don't whine when they ask for cash and give you gear in return.

                                I would gladly buy useless crap from Bungie if they didn't keep us in the dark about EVERYTHING, be open with your customer base if you plan on having loyal players for 10 years. A simple example of not caring about the customers is a 3 month wait to fix quiver when other games have 1-3 bug fixes in a month, it's absurd. Anyways I'll continue to play up until the point something better comes out but I'll spend my disposable income on other crap like halo 5 and app games. #cozmo #deej

                              • Oh of course. You don't have to have x ray vision to see that. Ill just do the quest as usual and getting the reward as stated, trust me, I won't be spending a dime on it.

                                • Time to blow you out of the water, but the only sparrow you can buy or have a chance of getting is a special sparrow. There is something for a free legendary unobtained sparrow for 500 glimmer though.
