Around the 8 minute mark.
Maybe you recognize me from the thread I made a couple days ago highlighting this issue. Interestingly, with almost 3000 replies neither DeeJ or Cozmo commented on it, despite my numerous attempts to contact them. My PMs were also ignored.
I was also banned from replying to my own post, so there's that, as well as another user who said nothing wrong either but was simply helping me to get this issue recognized.
DeeJ confirmed this to be true. In one quick sentence he basically says look at the fine print. Meaning, on some level, it's our job to find this crap out instead of them doing it themselves.
This effectively hurts all who play destiny. Xbox owners like me, of course, get the blunt of this as we are restricted from content for yet another year.
PlayStation owners also are hurt from this, believe it or not. For those who still have not gotten the exclusive guns and were eagerly waiting for Xûr to sell them, you're out of luck. Xûr will now not be able to sell them for another year.
Perhaps you enjoyed Echo Chamber. Too bad, now it can't be the Nightfall for another year.
Or, maybe you actually do enjoy Sector 618. Sucks for you, it now cannot be a Trials of Osiris map for another year.
I wish I could say I'm joking, but as ridiculous as this sounded it's all true.
Well done, Activision/Sony. Fantastic work on dividing the playerbase of this game even more. Actually, it's pretty funny, PS4 players are starting to support Xbox more and more in this.
Edit 1: No mention of this in the Weekly Update.
I appreciate all the positivity I've seen in this thread. Keep it up, boys and girls. Let's work together to get more people aware of this.
Edit 2: User Twigg814 has linked us to Activision's BBB (Better Business Bureau) page. If you call the number, they will file your complaint and from what I'm aware of they will decide if they agree with us or Activision. I can't say I'm too familiar with this type of stuff, so don't take my word on this.
I originally put the link in the OP, but on second thoughts have removed it. I don't know how well mods or ninjas would take to having something involving legal action in the OP.
Edit 3: It looks like this post is moving down the forums. That's not unusual as I'm suspecting it's pushing this down so other posts can get visibility.
It's unfortunate, but this post did its job of getting people to know about this. Thanks for all the support, everyone! Let's keep at it.
Additionally, some have asked if they can copy this and repost it so it's always on the forum until Bungie comments. I give you permission to do so.
UPDATE: User Alovon will be reposting this. Bump and upvote his post as well!

1 답변No one cares let Sony keep their exclusives when they can't even keep psn always up and running.

8 답변I sit on neither side of the Xbox nor PlayStation on this one. I sit on the side of what is best for the community and I don't think that 2 year exclusives is best for the community. It creates division and hate amongst the consoles when we should unite as one and voice our concerns together to give us a better game free of bad business decisions

2 답변*UPDATE* Polygon posted an update on this. Activision came out and said that all TTK PS4 exclusives and Rise of Iron exclusive will continue to be exclusive until AT LEAST 2017. http://www.polygon.com/2016/8/18/12536688/destiny-rise-of-iron-ps4-exclusive-taken-king-fall-2017 It is what it is. And ultimately, contacting the BBB over this is probably the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Nothing is going to happen. It's business as usual.

I'm on Xbox but I will play rise of irons story and strikes but that's about it. I will not stand for bungie changing everything last minute and dividing the player base. Exclusive dlc, games and maps are awful for everyone and should just die out.

1 답변Pretty sad that we're all so used to being lied too, that this is not a shock at all.

3 답변작성자: P3RZIANZ3BRA 8/20/2016 5:06:39 PMWhy does this thread keep getting taken down? What the hell Bungie? Edit: I'll be watching the forums and making sure this post doesn't get taken down. If it does, I have the post copied and will promptly repost it.

2 답변Sorry man, ps4 player here, i dont like the conceptual idea behind "exclusive content" where players are punished based on what console they own. Good luck with your push against this.
-
1 답변*Timed exclusives until AT LEAST Fall 2017. Still no guarantee xbox gets the exclusives at any point.
-
well that doesn't really bother me that much. I mean i always wanted to try out the jade rabbit but thats about it. and even if I never do its not that big of a deal. It does suck though that there were guns and maps that i'll never get to play with/on. but as long as they keep cranking out content i think i'll live....lol

2 답변작성자: Holy WarriorOO7 8/20/2016 9:15:09 PMIm NOT mad as much that playstation got the content Its just........ Ok so yeah playstation get the exsclusives for a year....Ok what ever FINE......... One year comes around and I get ready for over 12 truly new armor sets (which arnt just lame reskins), Now I was hoping these armors would provide Extra game time/filler content as I try to get the Iron lord and Arkon gear but nope the date was pushed back to a ludicrous Date were the timed content would be worthless for Xbox users, Why ? Why even make it timed just make it Playstation only, I would of been LESS MAD if bungie had not put that content in my face, sead it was mine, Then when the Day came for my patience to be rewarded THAY SMACK MY REWARD OUT OF MY HANDS AND SAY, Oh yeah.....well........Ha...Funny thing......yeah....Well just give it to ya later......Mabe......So you have fun now. But nope thay push it back.

9 답변Your problem is you look at it like they built the game for Playstation then took away the exclusive stuff from the xbox version, when the reality is that the PS exclusive stuff is just extras they've added to the base game. Its not an attempt to punish xbox players, its just a sweetener for Sony customers, and Sony paid for the priviledge. You can't really complain when you don't get it when you want cos as far as Microsoft customers go its all just free content.
