Edit: how do you feel about everything now that they have finally released their weekly update?
Personally I like what they did for the digital items people were complaining about but still find the lack of a way to buy TTK CE with physical items and not rebuy the game kind of disheartening. (Or at least a mention about fixing this for future releases since I understand at this point the physical items are pretty much sold out)
-As for the price being $20 I think this is the highest price they saw on posts like this and just went with it. (All the people saying $60 would be fine for the DLC and the in-game items as a package price)

[b]And you all still just let them do this shit by buying stuff without fighting for us to not get ripped off.[/b]
Edit: as point out below Bungie has finally acknowledge this mistake!! Skip to 7:30 in the video.

So looking at all the options for taken king I'm curious where the hell our version is.
God knows I'm not paying $79.99 just because you made the only version that has the 3 class items, 3 shaders, sparrow, bonus Xp, early access weps, emotos, collectables include the game and all previous dlc.
So where is our option? As someone who paid for your season pass, and played since alpha who obviously already has your game and dlc.
Aka a option that just has the dlc, the xp boost, the 3x of everything, early access weps, new emotos, and the sparrow.
&
An Option for the above plus the collectors items for digital downloaders. (EDIT#5 more clarification on options wanted)
Edit: AND your "thank you for being loyal" 1 year stuff can be gained easily by anyone who buys the $80 version? Are you joking...?
Stop being little -blam!- boys to Activision bungie and support your community like you used to with halo.
Looks like our only options are buy it without any rewards and just get the dlc, or drop way too much money to get money gouged buy what we already have. Completely pathetic money grabbing move by you.
EDIT: I understand (unlike a lot of people) that the game goes down in price. I'm not arguing about your price I'm pointing out that you don't have a bloody option for those of us who want all the perks and already gave you about $90 in the first place and don't want to rebuy the game.
Edit: shout out to all the people who comment about the catchy title and what they think a season pass is but don't actually read the post to see that's not what this is about. #stopthedumbz
Broke 1000 replies ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Shoutout to you for actually speaking up about the real problem. The $60 bundle is a steal but the community ire should be that if we want the carrot of being able to bypass some of the XP grind we have to dish out the big bucks, and since we already have destiny 1 and the expansions it's a $40 class item.
-
Lol when I made a post about this exact thing all I got where peeps defending it like it's not a serious issue :/
-
Edited by Luxuspunch: 6/17/2015 9:20:31 AMOnly thing I'm not happy with is them wanting 40$ for what they're offering. Feels like a step in direction micro-transactions. We can argue if those are good or bad. But if they offer weapons (basically p2w) or other game changing factors in the future, this will be the point where I'll quit.
-
We are all pissed at least I know I'm not buying this new content. Thank god!

People need to drop the whole depreciation thing, we're not talking about a car, or a single story game, this is an MMO, it's an ongoing project that is said to last 10 years. The PS4 is still $399 in most places, and Xbox $349 just because it doesn't have the camera. But the problem is more than that, is what we, as loyal fans, will receive unlike noobs. I understand the prices and all, but why don't I have an option to buy the DLC, with those same perks, that doesn't include having to buy the game all over again, that's like saying "the 90 that you already spent, doesn't matter anymore". It's seems our loyalty is really measured by how much we're willing to spend, not how much we've actually played.
-
I have stuck with destiny from the first month it released. Almost all my friends stopped playing. I love this game. I have invested hundreds of hours in it. But if bungie is doing what they did when they released the dark below( Giving newbies better stuff than people who have played a lot), I'll have to quit.
-
Hey Bungie, courtesy lube would have been nice before you bent us loyal player over. Also, take us out on a first date before you drop fecess on us!! lol
-
You didnt buy a season pass just a two dlc pack
-
Right. And to loyal fans we thanks you with a "vip" gift that anyone who buys the game gets. This is hugest cash grab i have ever seen. Forcing anyone loyal who acctuly collects to rebuy every the get things that should have already been in the game. Emotes
-
The argument used by some stating "games go down in price overtime" is HIGHLY subjective. Of course over a long period of time they do, but even after a year I'm pretty sure Destiny still costs $59.99 without a sale. Usually I am on Bungie's side, but $40 out the door or 60$ with the super ultra special window licker edition that includes all previous DLC is a spit in the eye.
-
Then pay the $40 and dont get the other items. Simple
-
Vanilla players should get the TTK dlc a little bit cheaper or give us something for sticking around this long. :D
-
Nobody seems to notice at the end of that first paragraph, it says "this and more"...
-
I just want the emotes lol. I'm happy with a year one shader and emblem. I bet those class items for XP boost wouldn't help us out since we are already leveled but damn it I want cool new emotes!!!
-
Imo just pay 40 and you good
-
I agree 1000%, I hope they correct this! BUMP BUMP BUMP!

I hear you. And I'm pissed too
-
I feel you. I almost bought the Collectors Edition thinking it was a season pass for next year. Then I found out it is the season pass I already own when I purchased the guardian edition way back last June.
-
This ^
-
Expansion was only for TDB and HoW...right now there is no season pass or expansion pass
-
you dont have a season pass, no-one does.... it was an expansion pass, completely diffarent :-)
-
That's why it's the collectors edition. You Sir, are a moron.

Edited by TheMasterDB8er: 6/17/2015 6:31:15 PMI don't care if it's another 80$, and i don't even have a job. I'll save up for a week and buy it anyway since destiny is epic. Money is meant for spending you penny-pinching bastards. If you want something, you gotta pay for it. If you want extra, guess what, you have to pay extra. Bungie doesn't owe you anything for being loyal to them. You just buy their games. Making this thread won't change anything. [spoiler]i forget isn't the 80$ one come with the game, and the DLC? If so even better. I can give my friend a copy with dlc, and also have the DLC exclusives myself. Win win. Quit bitching kid.[/spoiler]

Edited by Cobra JN: 6/17/2015 7:32:23 PMPurchasing this 'season' pass only enabled everyone for DLC's 1 and 2. Not TTK or any other future DLC for Destiny. I know it sounds absurd, but this another reason why the price doesn't bother me either, as I know for a fact I'll put tons of hours into this

Season pass means "season". Come September that "season" is over. What part of English don't you understand?
