That the day The Taken King releases.
All that gear your grinded for for hours on end and worked hard to get is becoming useless.
All that ascending for nothing.
Thanks Bungie. I'm cancelling my pre-order.
This is just pathetic.
[b]We're getting remodelled weapons with different names and colours.
Devil You Know and Revelator have same base stats.
Red Hand IX and Lone.Rebel have same base stats.
Deadshot Luna SR1 and B-Line Trauma have same stats.
I'm so happy to dismantle my favourites for identical overall base stats DUPLICATES.
Everything will continue to be the same.
Yes "move on" to "better weapons".
All that changes are the name, colour and a slight adjustment to the models.. The attack value goes up.
Yet THE BASE STATS WILL DUPLICATE.[/b]
Edit: Yes this is my first MMO.
Yes I love the weapons I am currently using.
Yes I love playing Destiny, gameplay is incredible.
Yes I will complain when things piss me off.
Edit 2:
This is an MMO.
This isn't an MMO.
I really couldn't care less about the genre.
Edit 3: If you're happy spending money for your weapons, that you worked hard for, to become obsolete then good for you.
I chase the weapons. You may chase armor, grimoire, experience or enjoy doing the same thing week in week out.
Insults don't affect me, in fact it shows how low your intellect is.
"They said wait" they shouldn't have to.
They shouldn't let people jump to conclusions.
They shouldn't let misinformation be released.
Edit 4: unlike the majority. I rarely use my fatebringer.
Final Edit: After reading many constructive replies and having checked in on Destiny today. I've decided I'm going to have to line up all my weapons and start cutting them out. Keeping all exotics and useful crucible weapons and those I consider to be useful.

It's a new system. Weapons and armor won't be ascended if they are just reclassed by rarity. With exp and perks becoming the main factors.
-
Sad to say, but gear becoming irrelevant is pretty much a staple of MMOs. Other games started the trend, and Blizzard made damn sure it's here to stay.

[quote]There is a lot of new info in that article which I'm sure raises a lot of questions.. When DeeJ and the away team get back from gamescom next week we will share our plan for a series of Twitch events that will answer these questions. So you might hold off on dismantling anything until you have all of the info. Soon...[/quote] From cozmo himself

Just think of it as destiny 2. A new game with new weapons.
-
It's called progression. Get over yourself
-
Unless you're talking about your family or other loved ones, 10 years of anything will leave you bored or hating it.
-
Question? Are people thinking it's like BAM - instantly obsolete because you will have a completely new set up of gear with twice the ratings within days? I mean, it will be a process, right? Your old gear will stick with you for a long time as you [i]slowly[/i] acquire Year Two armor and weapons. Right? And what are likely numbers for Taken King weapons? 365/~400? I don't see what the fuss is about. Using 331/365 weapons is still very feasible today.
-
They are forcing you to grind, surprised?
-
It will still be useful for ALL the year one content, and some of the TTK content. [spoiler]Is this a b8 post?[/spoiler]
-
Time to move on?
-
You must be new to an [b]rpg progression element[/b]. I'm thankful "Year One Weapons" will be obsolete,they should be. Out with the old&In with the new! Time to move on
-
*is mad about current weapons being useless in upcoming expansion* "Yes, this is my first MMO." LMAO
-
They arent't useless, they arent being taken away from you. They will be useful at first, and then will be phased out by new weapons and gear. Thank god some real progression is happening, this community needs to move past their COD multiplayer mindset and realize this game is more similar to Borderlands and MMO's
-
Wow someone is too attached. Come on we knew this was happening so dpnt blame Bungie, blame yourself
-
Quit being such a diva
-
I've been waiting for Destiny to take this route for a while Hint hint- you can still use your year 1 gear Sheesh
-
Well I can tell how much of a boring mother -blam!-er you are to play with... *year one* Hey guys, I'm ready to go with my X, Y, and Z weapons! *year twelve* Hey guys, ready to go with the same X, Y, and Z weapons! -blam!- change and -blam!- new things. I like my same shit over and over and over and over and over and over........... ....
-
They won't be useless you will need them to restart a new grind for the weapons you want then
-
I love how people want Destiny to change and then freak out when it changes.
-
Destiny has an MMO concept, releasing new content with new gear & weapons is how it works. If you don't want the Destiny experience which is a shooter MMORPG go play call of duty or battlefield instead of bitching about getting new toys to play with!
-
The first time you killed phogoth at level 12 and got a new weapon and was really excited and then you killed nexus at 14 and got a new weapon. And so on. It's not worthless it's not a waste. It's progression. You will have the weapons and armor necessary to immediately try out and succeed at the new content. Peeps ho didn't grind this first year will not be able to. That's what is happening. The game moving forward.
-
Was fatebringer relevant when crota came out? Yes? I think we will still be able to use year one weapons.
-
Whiny little baby. You wanna just use the same stuff for 10 years? We will still be able to upgrade exotics
-
Just waiting on halo 5......
-
Let us know when you've actually cancelled. A lot of people crying wolf on these forums talking about quitting but never do.
-
Idk about you but I don't want too use the fate bringer forever
