[spoiler]Couple things:
The Valorous/Heuristic/Indomitable Light were Three of Coins-like buffs sold by the Speaker for Motes+Planetary Materials (I honestly don't remember exactly what they cost, [but it was never Silver] I can't keep the entire economy in my head) but for a variety of bug-related reasons they were removed. They were also - as has been pointed out - in the data files before TTK shipped.
Someone PM me when Zoba hasn't talked about TLW for a month (seriously, move on). Clock starts now ;b[/spoiler]
Extra: Nightfall is shitty. Bungie acknowledged. They are going to fix it.

[spoiler]Nightfall Rewards can be underwhelming. Runes/low # of coins/no reputation burst/weak legendaries all feel like losing. We're gonna fix it[/spoiler]
Side note:
Completely shameless self promotion. I'm a crucible guy. I have a YouTube channel for my crucible gameplay. I'm hugely unpopular. I also suck. I have some shitty montages up. Few people like them, 99.9% haven't even seen them. It would be nice if you guys would go watch them.

2 RepliesSpecifically says King's Fall. Doesn't account for the other 99% of the game lol.
-
2 RepliesIf you look at silver in the market place it says "silver is an in game currency used to buy IN GAME CONTENT" Not just emotes. Content. If you don't think more is on the way; you're way to naive.

I doubt it. Those things will happen before we know it and the ppl that will have the most drops will be most likely to get a great gun with great perks that destroys ppl in pvp. See....pay to win.

13 Repliesim not against the addition of eververse (yet). but the tweet just says that there wont be a consumable that will increase loot drops in the raid. that doesnt say anything about other consumables that could be consider pay2play.

1 Reply[quote]We aren't (nor are we planning) on selling consumable that buff [b]King's Fall[/b] drop rates for silver[/quote] That doesn't mean they won't do it for future content In fact it kinda implies they've seriously thought of using pay2Win. They're just thinking of how to ease it in

6 RepliesTwitter news is the equivalent of a homeless naked guy walking out to the middle of a shopping mall and yelling "we won't sell consumables for silverrrrr!!!!!" That's all i have to say about that.

[quote]Regarding Luke Smith: The great oracle who told us to throw money at the screen for emotes, then retracted it only for Bungie to tell us officially yesterday to throw money at the screen for emotes. [/quote]

2 RepliesI'm glad he said something. I assumed all of that, but didn't want to say anything. People enjoy their complaining and conspiracy theories too much. Not agreeing with their misplaced anger would result in my phone blowing up with notifications from angry nerds all day. Nobody wants that.
