I'm only going to touch on, in this post, the first thing that made me irate about TTK. I paid up early for the expansion thinking I was going to get some great gear very early in the content. Do you know what I actually got Bungie? You do, don't you? I got weapons that I looked at several times before I realized they were the weapons you had advertised. I got a shader. I got an emblem. I got screwed.
My existing obsolete weapons were more powerful than the "early access" weapons you had advertised. Why are you deceiving your fan base? Loyal customers bought this preorder to gain access to some great items, and you provided trash. Actually, they're not even trash. I never picked them up because they're worthless, so maybe the vanguard quartermaster can use them as paperweights or something.
Oh, and... You have to buy them!? They aren't even worth 10 glimmer, let alone 1500! I would literally dismantle them immediately if I was dumb enough to buy them. What a disappointment. You are losing your guardians, one by one. Make it right.

I totally agree with you. However I think you should take from this a lesson learned in the reason we as game consumers should not support the practice of preordering bonuses. They delivered what you paid extra for, in advance, without knowing what it was you were buying. That's the problem with preordering, it's so easily abused and leaves them no incentive to deliver anything of worth or quality --item or game itself-- because they have your money before the product is even completed.
