Luke Smith Confirmed this wasn't happening. https://twitter.com/thislukesmith/status/654213224007503872 [quote]We aren't (nor are we planning) on selling consumables that buff King's Fall drop rates for Silver.[/quote]

I would dare to say Bungie are experimenting with a way to bring in constant money to pay for the development of content patches(new raids etc) in-between expansions. I believe they are trying to develop an alternative system to the subscription fee other games charge to maintain the system of content patches. This is hardly 'pay to win' and I think you have really got things messed up if you are one of the people throwing a tantrum already. Infact, Bungie has stated that those who buy silver will be no stronger than those who don't. Speeding up the leveling process doesn't really affect others in any way. Go with it for now and lets see what Bungie give us.

Oh shut up -blam!-ing moaning.ffs.

Conjecture! Slippery slope! Lack of evidence! No one has any idea what their plans are. Dont like micro transactions, but I aint running their business. Most any of us can do is stop supporting the game when we think its more than we are willing to pay.

[quote][b]Bump/Like this topic so it becomes trending. The more people see this the better, so we can all give our opinions here and let Bungie know we don't want these items being sold.[/b] Along with the addition of the Microtransactions today, if you visit the Eververse Trading Company Item Returns menu you can see "Consumable Items are nonreturnable". This means that Bungie WILL add consumable items soon to the store, even though there are none yet. Today, as well, added to the database armory with the patch, are the following consumables: List of Consumables to be sold from Eververse Trading Company soon: •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/1281917992-heuristic-light]Heuristic Light[/url] - Buy additional moldering shards during the King's Fall Raid. •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/2937851017-indomitable-light]Indomitable Light[/url] - Buy more likelihood for armor and weapon drops during a normal mode King's Fall raid. •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/3004954978-valorous-light]Valorous Light[/url] - Buy more likelihood for armor and weapon drops during a hard mode King's Fall raid. •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/1524965721-hunter-level-25-starter-pack]Hunter Level 25 Starter Pack[/url] - Buy level 25 instantly, fully level any subclass instantly, and receive several telemetries to gain XP quicker. •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/2941899280-warlock-level-25-starter-pack]Warlock Level 25 Starter Pack[/url] - Buy level 25 instantly, fully level any subclass instantly, and receive several telemetries to gain XP quicker. •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/592011859-titan-level-25-starter-pack]Titan Level 25 Starter Pack[/url] - Buy level 25 instantly, fully level any subclass instantly, and receive several telemetries to gain XP quicker. •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/2488251899-subclass-infusion]Subclass Infusion[/url] - Buy a fully leveled subclass instantly (Fully upgrades your currently equipped subclass) •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/1053112404-bone-trinkets]Bone Trinkets[/url] - Buy Increased XP Gains from The Fallen for 10 minutes •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/3348846756-void-shackles]Void Shackles[/url] - Buy Increased XP Gains from Hive for 10 minutes •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/199830403-spent-displacer]Spent Displacer[/url] - Buy Increased XP Gains from Vex for 10 minutes •[url=http://db.destinytracker.com/items/2111706071-campaign-medals]Campaign Medals[/url] - Buy Increased XP Gains from Cabal for 10 minutes [i]We don't know what the chances will be if you use these buffs to obtain extra raid armor and weapons but expect they will be absolutely unfair, otherwise there would be no reason to buy them. I wouldn't buy extra raid armor chance if I didn't notice significant changes, for example. I pretty much get moldering shards every single checkpoint right now, likely on purpose so they can sell these things. Expect the XP buffs will also be downright unfair as well.[/i] ----- How we know these will be sold from the Eververse Trading Company: [spoiler]A "Starter Pack" is not something you obtain to begin with. Usually with that connotation it's bought, but regardless, the starter pack leads you to level 25, the same level a Spark of Light gives you. Spark of Lights still exist and are in the database, untouched. You only get one during the Taken King purchase, although these Starter Packs will likely have to be bought if you want to fully level another character in the same way, with even more benefits. It's extremely unlikely you obtain this and if it's Bungie's interest to already give you a Spark of Light with a $40 TTK purchase, you shouldn't trust them not to sell them with additional benefits. I'm not going to beat around the bush, there COULD possibly be ways to obtain heuristic light, valorous light, and indomitable light. Those consumables increase your likelihood for drops in the Raid, be it normal or hard. Although, the fact these, and along with the XP boosts such as Campaign Medals (which increase Cabal XP gains for 10 minutes) were all released together in the armory on the same day WITH the much more obvious "starter packs" leads me and anyone with common sense to believe these are part of the same principal and are to be sold as well.[/spoiler] "Ha, you call this Pay to Win?! This isn't pay to win. It's just buying additional raid armor and weapons, subclass upgrades and xp boosts. That's not pay to win. Stupid." : [spoiler]If you honestly think this isn't pay-to-win or that Eververse Trading Company products won't get worse with time, you're an idiot. Not even going to bother arguing with these people.[/spoiler] Take a moment to really think about whether or not you want to invest your time into this game any further, as this is a 10 year game and I really doubt the microtransactions will get less egregious than what's already put into the database and soon to be released into the game. The slippery slope isn't only slippery, it's -blam!-ing wet. Already. Now all of you understand why the forums were condemning micro transactions. This SHIT ruins games. I won't stand for this. If this gets sold, I am quitting. I have 2,700+ hours of gameplay invested and have been playing since Day 1 with over 7,000 Crucible games across my characters. Do I care about my progress? Absolutely. Does Bungie care enough to not undermine everything I've done? No they don't. Clearly. So goodbye Destiny, if these micro transactions get added. It will only get worse with the next 10 years ahead. Now I understand why I only get moldering shards and 4 chest pieces despite the "smarter" reward system Bungie implemented with Year 2. What a joke.[/quote]

Im going back to battlefield if they do this, I'd much rather pay for dlc than play a pay to win game. It takes the fun out of it for everyone.

I swear, I'm on the edge with this game, They make it paytowin and I'm done

It's not pay-to-win, its pay-to-gamble that they're toying with. And in a game aimed at teens, it'll get em indicted, so I hope Deej is setting aside some of that sports car money for lawyers.

I'll buy all that stuff. Why? Because I can.

Worst part is planet Destiny, datto and other Destiny dependent YouTubers/streamers will of course kiss Bungie's ass and try to convince players why we're wrong about Bungie being greedy and how we should be thankful we can give them more money.
