Treasures of the Lost are not cosmetic only
Pay-to-win has come to "Destiny". As part of the Festival of the Lost, players can use silver to purchase Treasures of the Lost. This random package could include items that speed up weapons upgrades and glimmer farming. So, remember when Bungie said silver would only be used for cosmetic items? Well, they aren't.
Micro-transactions are a slippery slope. The community needs to keep Bungie from going down that slope. Make your voices hear. Raise a ruckus. Let the Bungie faithful assail your revulsion of micro-transactions and pay-to-win. Let them see your resolve. Until Bungie relents and goes back to making "Destiny" the game it should be, we hold the line.
Edit: From Reddit [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3qax5y/destiny_halloween_event_festival_of_the_lost/]https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3qax5y/destiny_halloween_event_festival_of_the_lost/[/url]
These aren't cosmetic items only. They include consumables.
Edit: Keep responding. "STFO, "Never go full . . .", "You're an idot". It's all there already. Every reply bumps this post and keeps the pressure on Bungie to avoid going pay-to-win. And yes, I know some Guardians would love it if "Destiny" went pay-to-win and they could just buy a Gjallarhorn 3.0, but that's not the game I bought.

Wow the millionth person today to use that tired old slippery slope argument. Sooooo unique and intelligent
-
Consumables are not pay to win.
-
Wow... just wow...
-
Do you know that those items are available in the game without spending silver?

They never said it would stay cosmetic, they said micro transactions would stay optional.
-
Wait thats pay 2 win? Because i stoked up on all the old telemetries and glimmer boosters. I don't see it as a win when i already have this stuff.

3 RepliesAll I read was [quote]Im crying about how tess sells glimmer consumables that regular enemies drop & gun xp bonuses I can get from the gunsmith. [/quote]

I thinks they're fine because they're just crappy glimmer boosts
-
1 ReplyAll those consumables only last until the end of the event, so it's not like people can stockpile them anyways...

Un russle your jimmies. Except for the emotes you don't have to pay a dime for any of it.

You need to get laid dude

Edited by EvolutionSE: 10/27/2015 4:57:05 AMEven if they sold 320 weapons and armor for silver I wouldn't care, as long as the drop rates for me don't change. If people want an easy way to 320+ let them have it.

3 RepliesRemember the time that someone killed you because they used a glimmer consumable and had slightly more than you, or the time that someone's team beat yours because they all were getting slightly more xp for their heavy weapons.

Your post is like diarrhea in the toilet bowl it just stinks
-
-
It's really not that bad. They drop telemetries and glimmer items that drop ALONGSIDE a legendary mask. smh. Until they drop BOOSTERS for glimmer, I'm keeping my hopes high.
-
They're cosmetic variations of consumables that already exist/have existed since the beginning of the game. Chalk up another fail for the slippery slope gang.
-
Seriously? Because part of the packages are reskinned items that are ALREADY in the game, your crying? All they are is telemetries and glimmer items, of which I have tons of ALREADY. Gtf outta here with that pot stirring wah wah nonsense.

1 ReplyLmfao xD. You realize all those items can be bought with glimmer lmao or received from bags that you farm candy for :P. Bad troll gets a 0/8 r8ing lol
