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.
-
Idk about you but I don't want too use the fate bringer forever
-
Not the day. It can be argued that 365 gear will still be viable later on. Say a level 40 with a 365 Fatebringer will still be good up to around level 37 or so. It really depends on the activity you're playing. It's not pointless lmao.
-
Well thats good i wouldnt want to feel like theres no objective or goal. That just means u got more stuff to do. Aint dat the point of a video game other than winning?
-
Welcome to MMOs and the loot based grind system. If you didn't realize this when you initially bought in, either you must have never played this type of game before or had delusions of grandeur that weapons you acquired in 2014 would still be relevant years later.

Edited by THEJOE3000: 8/4/2015 7:48:18 PM1. The weapons won't be useless, just not as coveted as they once were. 2. Playing a video game isn't work. 3. If you grinded to get all your loot and didn't have any fun, I feel sorry for you. Because you missed the whole point of playing a video game. Long story short, if I can't keep leveling my Fatebringer it doesn't diminish the great time I had gaming with friends while on the hunt for it, or the awesome times I spent using it while gaming with good friends. If you only play destiny to have a full vault of the best gear, you're going to have a bad time.
-
Bungie has yet to clearly explain what this whole deal is. Also, this shouldn't be new if you've played any MMO or games similar to MMOs. Weapon changes and weapon becoming irrelevant. There is nothing new. A great example is WoW.
-
Say what?
-
Bungie didn't tell us anything.
-
Trust me this will be better. You really don't want to spend the next year with no loot to look forwards to. The guns you have now won't magically become shite overnight. You'll just gradually upgrade them with better ones.
-
Source?
-
You can still use it ya dingus. There's just going to be better gear in the end.
-
What no shrek. This sucks.
-
I want to complain too, but I realize that it's better for the overall game this way. I mean it would be ridiculous if we were using the same weapons from the beginning of the game 3 expansions in.
-
Best news I heard all day..roll on TTK
-
Welcome to MMO style progression. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
-
Edited by RedFaceGeneral : 8/4/2015 7:34:47 PMGood. Console players need to learn more about how mmo concept works. The amount of ignorance in this forum is nothing short of amazing. "Oh I'm canceling preorder because my favorite weapon which i have been using for the past 8 months will become less effective for the next whole -blam!-ing year."
-
I'm not upset. More variety is always welcome, and update 2.0 sounds fantastic.
-
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa
-
Seriously? This is your response? Quitting seems like the best choice for you after all. Best of luck.
-
Really bro? So you want to still be using the same goddamn weapons for the entirety of the franchise? Well if you're too stupid and lazy to adapt to new challenges, good riddance.
-
Its a dlc to welcome a new year of change I will take the flamelord (there is a new thunderlord on fire) you can keep your vanilla weapons.
-
Moms spaghetti
-
Honestly who didn't see this coming?
-
Pretty sure GI inferred that when they visited Bungie. In the article I don't remember seeing them (bungie) stating anything to that effect.
-
As if you would get new gear! Also if 365 weapons can fair well against 34/35 enemies, then I think we would have no problem with level 40.
