micro-transactions (make bungie see this)

If they decide to sell in game items that offer any kind of advantage against another player. I'm talking motes or gear or shards anything that isn't aesthetic. I'm going to quit destiny. If you agree please post so that they can see our community is completely against it.

    Alas the slippery slope has begun....now that it's started it's unlikely to end. Suggest changing the title to "make Activision see this." Bungie ceded control of the game. If you can buy your way to success.....really what's the point ? Activision has committed one of the worst sins - they've made Destiny ANNOYING ! * Video by Mike Reverb *

    • Why? I mean, I'm all for it. One doesn't have to pay for these and the boost it will give the player won't be applied to pvp. I see no reason not to, as it would help fund the servers.

        I agree. I just read an article on Forbes about the new economy changes and how some people think that the new weapon parts and strange coins nerf are due to Bungie planning on introducing micro transactions for these items in the future. It's just speculation of course and I don't mind it too much regarding the weapon parts (I have enough for now but can foresee a problem if I'm not careful) but the strange coins nerf does make the grind more painful. I have around 100 right now but most of that was from pre TTK. If the nerf does turn out to be in preparation for further micro transactions then I will certainly quit Destiny. I get that they are in the business to make money but they must understand that the customer's experience comes first. The money will follow. This may not be the case for some obscure gem in the Google Play Store or the App Store but for a game like Destiny, they should place more trust in their quality and marketing pull.

      • I'm totally with you on this it starts with the emotes then onto shader and ships then before you know what's going on they are selling rep packs legendary marks and engram bundles I can see them doing away with glimmer all together in favour of silver it worked with advance warfare they have made more through selling loot drop micro transactions than that have through game sales it's a slippery slope into the death of destiny
