Thagomizers. Astrocyte Verse. Et cetera.
You know what I'm talking about.
Bungie's own promotional material for The Taken King showed Guardians wearing some spiffy-looking armor. Resourceful players were able to identify those exotic armors, using the armory on Bungie's own website. And the time-gated wait began.
Then, something mysterious happened. The 'April Update', presumably the last significant update before the next paid dlc in the Fall, dropped. Were the last of the time-gated exotics added to the loot pool? Quite the opposite.
They were removed from the armory.
Shrewd move, Bungie. Shrewd move.
We can't call this 'false advertising', because Bungie never explicitly named those exotics with the promise that they'd become available. What we can call it, what it [i]is[/i], is [b][u]unethical[/u][/b].
What do you have to say about this, Bungie? Do you really think that silence is the best answer to accusations of unethical practices?
-
What, did they think we'd forget? do they take us for idiots? Oh who am I kidding, of course they take us for idiots.
-
If people were receiving these drops, and then suddenly Bungie pulled them, yes, I'd be concerned. But using the word "unethical", when they're not dropping for anyone? Are you for real?... I can see you care THAT much, but maybe you should just move on and attempt to accept this loss. My condolences...
-
Actually, it could be considered false advertising. They advertised the exotics in their promotional trailers for TTK, and over half a year later from release, we have yet to see them. This is not unethical. It is false advertisement at its finest.
-
that shinobus vow is the coolest hunter exotic in the game. and i can't get it of course. we've been waiting like 1/2 a year, only for bungie to trickle a new exotic out like every 3 months, even though we were promised them with ttk.
-
Dude, bungie only knows how to nerf shit. If somethings good, I mean just slightly better, the entire class gets nerfed to dog shit. Some of those new exotics looked too good. And there really wouldn't be a way to nerf them w out removing their unique perk, so bungie just pulled them. I guarantee that's what happened. Compare yr 1 to now, everything sucks. You can have whatever gear you want from yr 2, I mean you can equip all exotic weapons and armor from yr 2 and give me a yr 1 set up w yr 1 stats and you'll get ffd up. The gear we have now sucks. those new exotics looked good. Of course they pull them. Fu ck tard bungie strikes again.
-
Probably holding them for year two because Thai can't think of new ideas
-
They were never said to be part of any update. Even the trailer falls under "content of trailer subject to change". so that cant be used for a logical argument., As for the armory thats just been a place for placeholders. Again doesnt mean its in the game
-
I'm not letting this thread die that easily. You're tearing me apart, Lisa!
-
Shit like this... FOR -blam!-'S SAKE!!!!! Glad I quit. No shit ass update will bring me back.
-
That's an incredibly dumb post. There could be any number of reasons those items didn't make the cut into the final game, in the same way scenes get deleted from movies.
-
Why would the give us the gear when they can wait and put them in the next dlc and charge us $40-60 for half of what we're playing now

It's funny how things are being handled in Bungie's hands. You will never know what you are actually getting or not getting in this game.

They are going to repackage them in the next payed DLC. That is what bungie does. They make us pay for things that they promised to give us. I am not fooled. You will see the exotics again, but only after you pay
-
Activision and their habit of cutting content is the reason.
-
I'm really starting to think all of those exotics are one giant troll by Bungie. each and every one seems completely game breaking. or at least stupidly OP. improved blink? that's nightmare fuel. improved/longer/tighter turn shoulder charge? no, that won't be a problem... I'm really starting to think that Bugnie planned, long ago, to release all those exotics, and then through the roller-coaster of nerfs they realized those particular exotics were all disasters waiting to happen - and they killed them as quietly as they could. maybe they'll release them in the paid DLC, I doubt it, maybe they'll rlease them in D2, when platform changes allow base changes that can accommodate them, I wouldn't be surprised if they never see the light of day.
-
You know some movie producers will use cut scenes(as in removed) in their trailers, right?
-
The sad thing is it is a great game but Bungie with it's 500 people and 500 Million budget through out the life cycle of the game can't bring us real content real challenges . I want hardcore . I want Destiny , prepare to Die edition . i want to go in a challenge and get my ass handed to me , but instead we are finishing content supposed to be hard but it's not . that's the problem !
-
Bump , we need a reply Bungie, whats up with the rest of the unreleased exotics?
-
Bump. I specifically made two posts about this issue siting the 7 armor pieces directly from their website. Bungie is a pile of shit. We paid for those advertised things, we should get them. Lawsuit time.
-
*cough* not to mention another stupid f u c k i n g Playstation Exclusive item *cough cough* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozuk6aeWpXk
-
They will release them in the next DLC and say, "we been busy creating these new exotics for you, guardians!" As well as advertise new exotics for the new DLC, that we wont see until the DLC after that lol. BUNGIE is clearly full of incompetent, cash hungry jerks who will never see another penny of mine. -lesson learned.
-
Technically we are still In the taken king era so until the next big update they have time to being them in. I for one am not looking forward to skip Grenades being even better lol
-
Sounds like they were..........Taken......
-
That's another reason I quit this shit ass game
