So this, this is what they're doing with the emote money. The micro transactions are supposed to give us dlc steady till the next major release. I'm sorry but this isn't new content, or exciting. If I wanted to race I would play forZa 6. What we want is new strikes, weapons, and locations. All that time making this, you couldn't add in game LFG instead ? Just admit the real programmers are over working on destiny 2, and there is a small group working on current build.
I may get flamed for being negative but I don't care. I was hoping new content as in planets, quests, idk.. Something !! I'll even take old raids with new loot table at this point. Sigh, I love this game. What's more sad is I know I will participate in this "event" for the loot. The problem with this is, it's 3 weeks, and Tess is going to be selling stuff for a 3 week event. This is becoming a pattern.
[spoiler]more creative ways to get us to buy useless crap [/spoiler]
Edit1: please don't comment on the thread unless you have significant pve experience in the game. Nothing like being trolled and flamed by " account has not played destiny " , or my personal favorite the guy with >3000 grim and all 3 classes
Edit2: enough with the " most requested year 1 " argument. Nothing supersedes the want for an in game clan function, auction house, transmorg, lfg, or new planets. Nothing. This is a 3 week gimmick to get you to spend money at the cash shop. If you can't see that, then you're economically blind. Not to mention, sparrows suck, and it's on 2 planets. Stop kidding yourselves. If you don't agree fine, but present a logical argument, not just some babble because you're a teen
Edit3: for the ones that do agree, At least you understand what this event is really about. Thank you for not being just a blind fanboy .. I love the game, but sparrow racing is just.. Fail .. Bro lets go race sparrows !! Since the night fall is trash, the raid is old, and the strikes are the same 4 over and over. If the sparrows could shoot like twisted metal or something, ok, I can see it, but this ? This ? Just wait till Tess has the coolest stuff and it's purchase only, aka skull mask. Then let's see how people react
Edit4: maybe losing to nintendos " splatoon " at the video game awards, made bungie mad, and now they're coming for Mario kart? lol. This was just a joke to poke fun at the reality of that fact.
Edit5: remember when you got free silver ? Yeah how did that work out ? You couldn't buy the 2 most requested emotes. Remember the masks? Skull mask had to be bought, or lucky on first package, and on top of that, it was RNG. What makes you think the sparrow you don't have to buy will be any different ? The generic ones will be trash, the cool content will be behind paywall - and probably time gated each week
Final edit: so now I see where all the newbs are getting their information. Some guy mentions " the community asked for this in the beginning " and that video quote that is inaccurate goes viral for your arguments . Pathetic as hell. Not to mention, you heard it here first, this will be, a fail event .. You will rage that mum won't buy you silver, and you will get ReKT during event. This will land you right back on the forums saying it sucks. :)
Rofl 1000 silver for the record book!! I was right ! Just like the skull mask !!
Damn, I was right , no new dlc coming and the record book is this events backbone .. Flame away losers that didn't agree, you're the reason this happened.. You're blind fanboys. You ruined the game

1 ReplyI was initially pretty miffed. Then, I found the sparrow racing to be kinda fun. But... The boggled patch notes, the racing log exploit, the broken exotics, the broken fusion rifles, the emotes we were just encouraged to buy up dropping in Nightfalls and more all infuriated me. My PVP-centric friends say that PVP feels pretty good right now. PVE feels pretty much the same (and the revised patch notes show that not much changed). Anyway, I guess I race some sparrows until they can fix some things (in addition to the hot fix today). Then again, I have little to no urgency to raid or do challenge modes at this point, as there's no further endgame coming in year 2. I'm a bit grumpy this week.

Halo had warthogs, banshees, a big a$$ tank, some other cool stuff. I'm mystified that no one holds bungie accountable for the lack of transportation in this game. Just had to say that.

*Mutes op* Makes comment about muting op* -ShadeXTriple6 has left post-

I absolutely agree with the OP. I think most of the players are misunderstanding that they are getting Halloween, SRL, etc events in addition to new raids and content that was delivered last year. You are not. You are getting these INSTEAD of raid content. Please see: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-12-08-bungie-talks-destiny-the-taken-kings-event-focused-future "With Taken King we are moving to a more event-based model – things like Festival of the Lost and Sparrow racing, which is our winter event, and then smaller events such as Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris every weekend. Rather than doing these giant, monolithic DLC packs, this way everybody who’s an owner of Taken King can enjoy these things."

Bye Felicia

To be honest I'm really glad to see sparrow racing! I like the direction BUNGIE is taking, most of all it shows that if we beg enough we can get something put into the game! This is a step up for bungie, who knows maybe we will get custom games or private severs
-
K bye
-
Penis.

Do you people believe everything that is posted on the Internet? It seems like you do
-
Did you download it? Was it content?? Was it free? If you said yes to all of those (which I know you did), then it was free DLC.
-
I play a lot and I wanted some racing!

Shut up

Complaining about free content.... Smh

1 ReplyAll I see is You agree with me you're a genius You disagree you're an idiot
-
Like you said, they are working on year two. That's fine by me
-
1 ReplySimple, don't buy silver items. It is not needed for anything at all.
-
2 RepliesGot my hunter most of the race gear from using my Graverobber and timebreaker from the old raids. I don't need a new one just to win, so yea don't complain that you can't drive a sparrow around a map.
-
Dude they never said microtransactions give free dlc, it was however hinted that they would go towards events like these
-
STFU. No haters in the league!!!
-
Funny thing is they're not giving us any more dlc until destiny 2.

If you completed the questline, you get one of silver-costing sparrow packages for free. So one of the cool sparrows without spending silver. I'm not sure if you can do it on more than one character, but you for sure can get one of the cool sparrows without spending silver. [quote] Rofl 1000 silver for the record book!! I was right !
