When TTK was advertised, there were 18 exotics that people were really excited about. We only have access to about half. I'm talking about the Twilight garrison, Ophidian Aspect, Shinobu's Vow, Thagomizers, Astrocyte, etc. The TTK has been out for over a month now. Right now, there is almost no point to decrypting exotic chest pieces cause 9/10 you'll get Crest for titan or hunter. It's ridiculous. All I'm saying, if anything at all is, I want to be able to have a chance to get what I paid for. Simple as that. Even the Sleeper, I missed the day the mission came out because I couldn't get on that day and it hasn't shown ever since. Cmon guys, you can't seriously be ok with this. If any of you bought Halo or fallout or assassin's creed, would you be ok if they took out content that was heavily advertised and lead you to buy it? No. You wouldnt. So why is it ok when bungie does it? I believe we can change this if we collectively agree on this and push for it. The community can do this. Vote Yes, For stuff you payed for.
On a side note at the very least I was hoping that those exotics would be obtainable for going flawless and getting that chest in the lighthouse but was disappointed to find out that's not the case when I went flawless tonight.
Edit: Some people seem to think I want bungie to just hand us the exotics. No. I don't. I'm just saying they should be, and I quote, "obtainable".Through various means.
Edit 2: this topic has brought up another major topic, and that's the issue with transparency. Or rather, a lack of in Bungies case. There's a lot of thing regarding the game that people think they should be able to get but can't and it cases a lot of mistrust between the gamer and the developer. And it also results in a very divided community. Someone posted something about this and I thought he/she hit the nail on the head with that one.
Edit 3: I see a few of data mind arguments trying to be made and figured I should just end it right now.
Look at this official trailer from Bungie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTvf2cAIUtk
1: @ :34 you see the Astrocyte Verse helm on the warlock nova bombing the cabal strike boss
2: @ :43 you see the Tarentella Exotic chest for the hunter when he's picking up a void bow
Both of these are clearly not datamined if they're showing it in a official GAMEPLAY trailer.
Edit 4: Also when it comes to content that randomly shows up, like the black spindle mission and Sleeper, there should at least be a timer on the website or app so will know when is available to get instead of waiting blindly for the chance to get it again. # still waiting for Sleeper mission

I saw the warlock helmet that makes blink better on the armory on bungie.net, and bought a bunch of helmet engrams trying to get it. Then I found out it wasn't available yet

8 RepliesActually Halo 5 looked nothing like it was advertised. There was going to be this rivalry between Chief and Locke, where Chief was a traitor and Locke was hunting him down. This never existed. Locke's mission was to bring chief back, never to take him out. I would've much more preferred it to see Chief become a villain...well, maybe if Locke had more personality.

13 RepliesIt's been out for nearly 2 months... The next dlc isn't probably released until spring 2016. You cannot expect all of the new stuff at the click of your fingers...
-
Lol. They'll release them a week before the next DLC and then make them redundant...
-
Honestly...I don't ever remember them advertising 18 exotics, or any exotics. I remember exotics being datamined and the community talking about them and which would be the best. Example, I remember a lot of talk about having to find 50 items on the dreadnaught and having to take that to the gunsmith to get the sleeper simulant. We all see how that turned out. Now if they did advertise it and it wasn't just the community hyping things up like they usually do then they're probably just stuck behind a timegate like No Time To Explain and Sleeper Simulant. If they were all obtainable from the release you know what would of happened? everybody would have rushed to get them all and at this point instead of complaining about not having them people would be complaining about having all the exotics and nothing to do. The way I see it, you can't have your cake and eat it too.

I spent my entire life savings on those little chocolate eggs to obtain that one specific f*cking smurf toy and just got the same sh*t over and over again!!!! Did I go and complain to the shop about it??? Did I foooooooook!! Man up son, your self entitled, "mummy's little soldier" attitude is boring me and RNJesus does not like moaning little brats!!! That is all, good day sir!!

Hasn't this happened before "See all that? You can go there"

7 RepliesI think transparency as a whole would be vastly beneficial. I hate hearing all this "so many new things to discover" okay. I don't need a step by step guide, but maybe list 10 story missions 20 new perks 4 crucible maps 18 exotic weapons 12 exotic armor 45 new legendary weapons A new raid. Simple stuff like that up front will keep the community from flaring up
-
You see what they did? Either... A. They are scheduling the releases to prolong the activities. Or B. They decided to cut the completed material and decided to use that as another small DLC like HoWs and charge folks either $20 or $30 bucks for it.

Bungie get rekt
-
Having new content every week or other week has been awesome. It keeps me playing and nowhere near to being bored. If it means holding stuff back and letting them slow drip content then so be it. Anything is better than how it was before with nothing to do for months.

Edited by A Rising Wind: 11/2/2015 9:37:25 PMMy belief is that the decision to time lock is simply a way to maintain interest for an extended period of time in lieu of DLC. The TDB has long been leaked and recently officially announced by this time last year. Meaning my optimism that a DLC, free or otherwise, is not coming this year or any time soon, is gone
-
I had high hopes for this expansion. And the two prior. I grinded. For ever. I'm done grinding this game. However. fallout 4. Mmmmmmm
-
Someone say Shinobu?

I think Bungie actually stayed true to their word and made a few exotics that are truly "exotic". Exotic ig'zädik 2. attractive or striking because colorful or out of the ordinary. 3. of a kind not used for ordinary purposes or not ordinarily encountered.
-
This is one way to extend the life of this dlc. Time gate exotics will ensure that player will come back to play.
-
The time locked content is bs. I completely agree. We choice be able to uncover the stuff by scret missions etc
-
I'm fine with them drawing it out. Gives me a reason to come back to destiny every now and then. I'll just keep playing halo (soon to be fallout) then when I can get a new exotic, come back to destiny for a bit. While people may not like it, it is smart on their part. Giving us a reason to keep coming back
-
I don't mind a little time gating, but it does feel like they are stretching it out too long. For myself I don't always have enough time to get all the exotics that are already out, however for anyone who plays more frequently than me I would think it would be really frustrating.
-
7 RepliesPeople who think that you're asking Bungie to hand us exotics are a bunch of morons who lack critical thinking skills....Which seems to be a problem within this community considering that many think that if you can afford one $5 emote, you can afford to buy a $400 - $500 console.
-
While I don't really care one way or another about the exotics, I'd just like to say that I too, was unable to log on the day the SS mission became available. I logged on the next day and I managed to complete the whole questline
-
I hate when people act like a game is statistically not a good or well-planned game. It's a game— a "form of play or sport"— and it's meant to be fun. When you crunch numbers and complain to the developers, ask yourself if you're really having any fun. If that answer is no, find a game you like more.

2 RepliesDoesn't matter to me. I only play this shit tier game because I haven't purchased any new games.

The expansion came out only a month and a half ago. Of course they wanna stretch it out. Imagine if every exotic was in play, everybody spammimg taniks a few weeks ago would already have every exotic in the game and start complaing about like of content
