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

1 ReplyEdited by Rynoceros: 11/4/2015 10:41:46 PMThe Twilight Garrison thing pisses me off, since Hunters got their Graviton Forfeit and yet another evasion tactic to use, while everybody else is just teased with trailers and "glitches". At least give me my god damned Y2 Armamentarium, the new exotics (that we have access to) suck greasy ass.

Xûr is gonna sell all that stuff for Christmas.

6 RepliesBTW WE CLEARLY HAVE ACCESS TO AT LEAST ONE OF THOSE THE TWILIGHT GARRISON IS AVAILABLE HOWEVER RARE IT MAY BE

13 RepliesI'm afraid you are incorrect. They never advertised 18 exotics. The only reason we know about those exotics is the armory
-
1 ReplyEdited by xwarxwomanx: 11/4/2015 9:36:51 PMI think they are waiting for other games to come out. That way they can present new exotics as a reason to return to destiny

4 RepliesBlack ops 3 on Friday= new exotic on Friday.

1 ReplyGood poll. Hope they see this and actually do something. They also never answer...for those who bought the collectors edition for TTK before the price drop will get something in return. And we're waiting.... .... ....... ..........
-
Despite them time gating things, one or two new exotic armor pieces isn't gonna make me run back to destiny to try to get them.
-
They are all locked behind a time gates till next tuesday when fallout 4 comes out.... along with some new emotes to keep sheep dancing for 7.77
-
the few people who got the tarentella confirmed that they got a quest from cayde for it, but they don't know how.
-
Marketing man.. they will time gate shit along with the other games coming out. Smart if you ask me.
-
1 ReplyThey are just Time Gating because they want to realease them when other games like Fallout 4 come out. -.- They are using this tactic to pull people back. I wouldn't mind it if they hadn't already announced most the exotics. >.>
-
I have a feeling they will be rewards or quest lines gathered from Oryx challenge mode.
-
It is possible that some of these are available. The path just hasn't been found yet.
-
They're timegating it until December so they can rerelease and be all like "thanks for buying those emotes, here's what we've been working on with all of that cash". Then we'll have videos showing the new exotics in old trailers and shit talking about cut content. It'll be year one all over again.
-
2 RepliesWhen Fallout or any other big title releases, they'll make something new available. Seems to be the trend with this expansion.
-
Well how else are they supposed to stretch out this crapass content for the new 2 months? Time gates!!! Someone over at bungie literally thought this was a brilliant idea. Well me as a player, I have been lied to, so this is not right.
-
4 RepliesThe transparency aspect is spot on. Everything Bungie has ever done is all a secret. Always. They can never just announce "mission X results in weapon Y and it will ONLY be available on day Z". They just decide that on a Monday they'll avail the black spindle again. Or that a random Thursday they'll open up sleeper quest again with absolutely no warning or heads up. They think and want every player to be hardcore and don't care about the casual and fringe players
-
They are going to release them and the challenge hard mode in a few days, I bet to keep people from playing Black Ops 3 and Fallout 4 as much.
-
How come people are now starting to notice this? This has been out for awhile...
-
1 ReplyI think they used this tactic to keep people playing. It actually made it easier for me to quit destiny. Been playing halo since Tuesday and it's great
