Brainstorm ideas for microtransactions!

Hey all! I think we can agree that the more you put into a game, the more you should get out of it. Time, effort... and money. Not just in-game currency, but our hard-earned cash. That's right, I am suggesting microtransactions be added to Destiny. These would be purchased in the Tower, from Special Orders. Why? Because with the revenue generated from microtransactions, DLC's and expansion content can be offered at a reduced price! Everybody wins! [b]Here's a list of what I've come up with so far:[/b] Glimmer packs (offered in various scales) Heavy Ammo packs ($1 for 5) Strange Coins/Motes of Light($1 for 3) Engram packs ($1 for 3 blue engrams, $3 for 1 legendary engram) Exotic packages ($10 for an exotic engram for the slot of your choice, heavy engrams are $15) XP buff ($4 for 15% buff) Destination materials ($1 for 100 of your choice) Exotic shards ($1 for 2) Raid Starter Pack ($10 for a random 2 pieces of Crota armor and random 2 normal mode weapon drops) Subclass Max! ($15 to max out a character subclass) Ascendant > Radiant materials ($1 to exchange 5) Add yours to the list!

    You're a dick... The moment micro transactions are introduced to Destiny... Is the moment I up sticks and leave!!! Every game I see has these and to be really honest, they're screwing up the decent fun a game can have, by forcefully making you pay by putting time sinks into games and stupid people keep supporting this type of business... It looks like you're one of them!! I've paid my £55 and the rest for the season pass!! I wish to pay no more... What an idiot you are for even debating this! One word... ******* EDIT - Grammar [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] about....

    • Use your brain. You're a max level. You put in hard work and effort to get there. How would you feel if someone could just pay for that, instead of doing what you did to get gear you have?

    • Looks like you have one supporter, way way down there I think I saw him. If not for him, you would have managed to do something that no one else has done on this forum yet. Unite the community in unanimous agreement about something.

      • Damn! If I could sell the shit I find for these prices I could make more than 1k a day. Those are insanely high. Maybe I'd spend a dollar on 350 heavy synthesis not 5.

      • So, you all want a pay to win game? Can't we just get all the retards back to the Facebook "free" games so that our game isn't ruined by your wretched kind?

        Microtransactions in AAA games... No... AC unity copped immense hate for the microtransactions they had in it. Besides, bungie stated before destiny launched that these would never make their way into destiny.

        • This isn't a free-to-play or pay-to-win game. Very bad ideas.

        • Micro transactions are ruining Video Games. I wish no game had them. Any game with them I will not play. Especially ones that retail at $60. EA has a terrible problem with this in their sports games. It's now crossing over into the majority of their games. If Destiny did this I'd quit the moment it's implemented. Their DLC was already an overpriced joke.
