    • Anyone who buys that toaster is a goddamn clown. But hey, can't help but commend Bungie for this scam, it's pretty clever.

          It’s all going concording to plan 😂🤣 - old

          $84.99 (or 87.99 Euros) for a toaster. To quote a D1 'flavour text' "A. A ha. A ha ha ha. A ha ha ha ha ha ha ha" You're all honestly having a -blam!-ing laugh with that. And don't give me the "it's for charity" excuse. 10% of the [b][u]PROFITS[/u][/b] from each sale will go to charity. How much will that be per sale out of curiosity ?

            Zzzzzzzzzzzz My interest in Destiny is quickly fading. Your "formula" for seasons is as stale as stale can be. Time to change it up.

            • If I buy a toaster can I have a new PVP map? An anti cheat that works? Servers or at the very least ping caps for PVP matchmaking? I mean you'll have 80 of the 90 bucks... as only 10 percent goes to charity. Honestly, every day this forum is full of people complaining about the same problems... FOR YEARS!!!!! Less toaster ideas... more actual work on a game.. That we pay for..... Destiny 2 isn't a free game...

                From what I've seen from the comments, you guys are selling an [b]$0.81[/b] toaster for [b]$85[/b] with only a sticker and heater element which will burn a logo onto the bread... And only [b]10%[/b] of profits are going to charity. Wow, any hope I had that you guys were going to change your ways just got flushed down the toilet. And I thought you couldn't sink any lower. [spoiler]I looked at the toaster and what it does, couldn't stop myself from laughing, what a joke! 😂[/spoiler]

                • Bungie thinks players as so low as to throw money at a meme toaster that is cost inflated by 1000% if that one site is truly accurate and the same model. Oh but don't worry charity is included so you can feel like you're contributing to something even though Bungie gets the other 90% of the profits. Sad to know fools will buy this and blatantly defend them getting played yet again with "it's my money".

                    I hopped on here after months of being away(I log on a couple times a year). Noticed they took away my Halo 2 emblem along with the old site. Clicked on this to find out that Bungie is pushing more ridiculous junk with the guise of charity and players are still not seeing their issues with the game being addressed. After seeing how things have devolved all these years, DMG, how are you still with Bungie? How are you still wearing that custom emblem that represents how Bungie used to be with the community as well as their games? I'll never understand how anyone is still here regularly supporting this company that's from the Halo days. But hey, whatever works for people.

                    • Just incase anyone’s wondering the toaster model is CT-808G Alibaba sell then with a custom logo for $0.81 per unit. So 10% of profits to charity Big Oof 😑

                      • Fixed an issue where cheaters can shoot 900 rounds of colony in 2 seconds every weekend in trials. Fixed an issue where enemies are randomly teleporting all over the place. Fixed an issue where master lost sectors are only giving 1 drop every 6-9 completions. Fixed an issue where heavy ammo / warmind cells go flying over the edge every time without fail. Fixed an issue where players on console cannot shoot warmind cells next to enemies because aim assist won’t allow it. Fixed an issue where motes/ammo keep falling through the floor. Fixed an issue where some champions instantly heal themselves after being stunned. These are just some of the known issues that you’ll never see in the TWAB but don’t worry BECAUSE WERE LISTENING!!!

                          If people buy that toaster it just goes to show how irresponsible people are with their money. I mean I get it it's your money and you decide what to do with it but it doesn't change the fact that you are an absolute buffoon for spending that much money on an overpriced junk. I mean that's quite a bit of money imagine how many Popeyes chicken Sandwich you could buy for that money. I doubt that toaster can give you as much happiness that the amount of chicken sandwich you can get from that money.

                        • Another TWAB with nothing of note as beagle errors still plague the game, PvP and Gambit remain boring as hell at best, seasonal challenges and bounties remain the only thing to do despite supposedly moving away from bounties, and the Vault of Glass bad luck protection in doubt because people can't trust anything anymore. Will Bungie ever address any of these things or any of the many other topics of conversation? Probably not, especially not while we're talking about toasters.

                        • Dam I was excited for the toaster. Imagine having a toaster modeled after jotun. I was prepared to drop a hundred bucks or 2 on that. It sounds awesome. Then we come to find out it's just a basic toaster with a jotun sticker slapped on the side. Glad I didn't waste my money. I can make one of those for a few bucks with the toaster I already have. Just spray paint it black and put a sticker on it. Done. Saved me 100 bucks

                            I’m not even surprised anymore. I was actually looking forward to see how the toaster was gonna come out, not so much of wanting to buy it but seeing what creativity they’d put into it, and it’s just the most bland and flatest looking toaster I’ve seen yet. [url=https://www.amazon.com/BLACK-DECKER-2-Slice-Extra-Wide-T2569B/dp/B002CVTT4S/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?adgrpid=57580309873&dchild=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIpuGQpYGh8QIVCG1vBB21WgtIEAMYASAAEgKqpfD_BwE&hvadid=274712066603&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9011328&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=9034359269885936727&hvtargid=kwd-320394187114&hydadcr=1235_9911589&keywords=toaster%27&qid=1624013730&s=home-garden&sr=1-9]Here,[/url] you can pretty much find a similarly specc’d toaster at a fraction of the cost. You buy what Bungie is putting out on the store, you’re not paying for a toaster. You’re paying for an emblem with the toaster as an item on the side. A pretty burnt up emblem at that. Smh. Having proceeds be donated to charity is great, trying to scam folks for overpriced and lackluster merch is [i]not so great[/i]. Feels like the Fallout 76 scene all over again. If any of you reading this are wanting to get a destiny-themed toaster, contact somebody through an etsy store instead, somebody who handles doing crazy designs for household appliances. You’ll either be paying the same amount or less for a requested design and, from what I’ve seen from talented members of the community outside of Bungie, you’ll get something way better than what half-baked mediocrity they are putting into the Bungie store. You’ll probably get it way sooner too since what’s on the store is just a preorder that isn’t expected to be ready to ship till December-next January. In the meantime, I’ll be toasting with my pos that I bought for like $15 at Wal-mart as I wait for a TWAB that actually brings some butter to the forums for once. Content’s starting to get stale around the edges, maybe they’ll spice it up with some QoL changes soon or maybe a new Crucible map for once?
