Sparrow racing - demise of destiny

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

  • If you don't remember, sparrow racing was on the list of top five things that destiny players wanted introduced into the game. So it's not like Bungie used it for something we didn't want. It's just the 1% like you that hate everything that is new in destiny.

    The live team and endgame team are two different people. The live team directs your. ToO, IB, festival. That type of stuff. Endgame is your DLC and raid teams. While the Endgame team is at work, the live team used all that silver money earned to make this. Just be happy we even got [i]something[/i]. I bet you also complain that there isn't anything to do in destiny. Eh. I knew your name looked familiar. You are one of those old trolls. Nice bait you got here.

  • We wanted sparrow racing but not in the form of a -blam!-ing micro-transaction! I have always like the idea of racing but Bungie messed it up which honestly isn't surprising seeing as they are making everything pay to play and stuff... I agree with this post 100%! I have been on destiny since it came out and I have never seen this game in such a terrible condition :( It's sad to see how an amazing game has turned into a pathetic money sucking machine

      To be fair, Sparrow Racing has been a community request since launch. Not just because of the vidoc. It made sense with the mechanic. But, apparently, you just want to be negative. Considering all the other things you could legitimately not like, this is what you beat on?

        They said that people were asking for it in the alpha/beta...... I would bet the majority of them don't play now and even then I know of no one that wanted destiny kart. Should have been a new strike at the very least and NEW!!!!! weapons and armour not year 1 stuff with the occasional colour change.

      • Six edits, each one more condescending than the first. Congrats, OP. You just officially moved this place past WoW's forums for community toxicity. Can you push us towards toppling League of Legends in that regard?

      • More people will sparrow race than raid. Get a clue. This game has to offer more than just endgame raiding and pvp tournaments. This is a nice addition for some much needed variety.

        • I dunno why some peeps are so salty about the event, Im actually looking foward to it, the community has been asking this since the beta. C'mon its free!! Lol. I think peeps are acting this way is because they were all expecting a new raid or expansion but at least we got something and its different from everything else (Trials, Iron Banner). I dont think we would like a rushed, short raid like Crota's End so Sparrow Racing fits percfectly and plus we still have challenge modes each week for King's Fall.

            • Absolutely correct. Its like Datto with the challenge mode... Also, how can bungie be certain that people will even race? This could all just be another fireteam/team chat gimmick!

                Let's just pray it goes toward making Destiny 2 not suck. Im expecting 2-3 Raids with a tiered loot system, 10+ strikes, balanced pvp with dedicated servers and a good ranking system, and massive planets, AT LAUNCH Otherwise, I'm off the Destiny train for good.

                • Request for OP to post screenshot that he actually purchased silver. Anyone that has not purchased any silver has zero right to judge/complain about how it's beeing spent/used.

                    • The thing is, we get those new strikes and new weapons and then get burned out of doing them (which I'm sure you are) so their trying to give us something new to do. Why complain about something new?
