From the beginning of the Destiny Universe (Launch) we as guardians have been grinding for an entire year. We grinded for Vex Mythoclast. We grinded for Necrocasm and still are. We grinded the boring pile of shit we know as Prison of Elders. We grind these repetitive activities know as Strikes and Nightfalls and Raids. (Well raids aren't that repetitive) For all these exotics. From Weapons to Armor. Us as a consumer, no, a community have put in more than over 1000 hours into this game.
We became addicted and most of all desperate, to obtain our favorite weapons. And not only that but we grinded hours of crucible and Vanguard strikes to level up those favorite weapons after it took us months to get them.
Now that we have The Taken King arriving in 3-4 weeks, it has been announced that 60-70% of all our exotics will not be "redesigned" for the upcoming DLC.
Weapons like the Hard Light and Necrocasm will not compete against the new Exotics. With this information our community has been set a blaze. Angered, and felt betrayed even after being so loyal. Many say we should stop crying and deal with it. Some say other wise. Well I say... No! We should scream at Bungie, make them hear our voices. This is not what the consumer wants. We as a community. We understand that our developer wants us to play a certain way. But when it comes to our money on what we paid for. This is back stab. Everyone in the community should go against this outright abomination of a company at this point in life, and make them bring back for what we paid for. We earned these exotics, majority of them we got from Engrams, nightfalls and Raid. They done a lot to us to make us happy. But we cannot simply ignore the things that make us upset.

[b]Edit 2:[/b] Also remember we never got to experience the power of the Auto Rifles during the House of Wolves. They were nerfed to the ground and almost unsuble. Most of the Dark Below Auto Rifles as well.

“The last thing we wanted was for you to look at your favorite gun or helmet and decide that it had become obsolete. Since the reveal, we’ve read a lot of ideas for how this could have been done better.

Update: Over 2k replies, Skull of Dire Ahamakara is now Y2. What else will they bring? Lets make it every last exotic! Even.... Thorn!!!!

The exotics must go on! Knowing they are being left behind will make a lot of the grind meaningless and many will stop coming back :P

Great. So they can now do as they planned, drip feed the more desired exotics in later add ons to keep the hype and thier profits up. While insisting it's because they "are listening to us" These posts may no difference to anything. If they think something will increase play hours and profits it will be done regardless of what you, I or anybody else thinks.

Signed - but as I've said in previous posts I'm now 90% sure the rest of the year 1 exotics will get upgraded in subsequent DLCs They get to tinker with the perks for balance reasons and charge us to re-buy weapons we all ready have without having to create new unique weapons every 4 month.

Meh. Have already seen this. Still wanted to see what was being talk about :P

Why are they even bothering to mess with these old guns like Hard Light if they are just going to be obsolete..??? I feel like there is something they are not telling us. Also, WHY do we want blueprints of old year one guns if they are now going to be crap? None of it makes any sense. I have to believe that we don't know all the facts. I know I'm hoping for the moon... considering their past actions.

Edited by Luke Pawlowski: 8/21/2015 5:05:05 PMI agree 100%. There needs to be something in the game to show a players progression. Historically that has been the exotics, and it should continue to be exotics. They are making almost the exact same mistake they made with the Dark Below with the Taken King. There is nothing there to let the players that have put over 1000 hours differentiate themselves from people that have just bought TTK. New players get an automatic character upgrade to level 25 with armor that (since it will be level 25 armor) will be better than our raid and trials gear more than likely. Their weapons will be better than ours, and our ours will mean nothing because our exotics, our best weapons, will be worse than their blue ones. Plus it doesn't make any sense that they are going in and drastically changing the balance of exotics if on literally the same day all those weapons are going to be worse than the blue weapons you get for completing a strike. It is the stupidest thing they have done to date.

They'll bring those exotics forward, watch. It will be part of a DLC package. Why give a feature away when people will pay for it. Then they can pretend they listened to feedback (like the did with Etheric Light) and reveal a new upgrade mechanic, available with the next DLC. That way people don't freak out about cutting stuff from game to sell it later, and they look like good people for listening to the fans. Win/Win.

Program has been shutdown by the government for being stupid af.

I really want to use my exotics and I am not talking about Ghorn. The Light Beyond Nemesis 2.0 is shit af. The perks right now are much better.

Day one player with nearly every decent piece of gear in the game and guess what... I don't give a damn most of them will be underpowered for ttk. I got bored using fatebringer months ago. Gjallarhorn is nice and all but its become a crutch in pve. So many people seem to forget that they are releasing more items than there were in the vanilla launch. Chase new gear or don't buy TTK. Chase the new gear which honestly from what we've all seen looks pretty fantastic. You've all been using the same stuff for so long I find it absurd you're upset you have to leave it behind FOR TTK BUT YOU CAN STILL VERY EFFECTIVELY USE IT IN PRE TTK ACTIVITIES. That is all.
