So far warlocks have received 3 new exotics. Titans have received 4 and hunters have received 4. Luke Smith promised back in August that each class would receive 6 new exotics at launch in a game informer interview.
Not only that 3 of these exotics actually featured in The Taken King trailer. These exotics were [b]Astrocyte Verse[/b], [b]Ophidian Aspect[/b], and [b]Transversive Steps[/b].
The most interesting exotics have been held back. Bungie has just confirmed after their Instagram reveal that there will be 0 new exotics.
How in any way is this acceptable? You sold us something which you haven't delivered on. You deliberately tricked and mislead us.
So what? You are going to sell us these exotics for a second time in a paid expansion. Smh...
[b]TRANSPARENCY PLEASE![/b]
Edit: So the weekly update is here and as many people predicted there is no sign or even recognition of these exotics. There isn't even a hint to suggest they will be revealed in next update either.
Support this post by CitrusTheNile which is on the same topic.

Final Edit: Ive sent this thread to both Cozmo and Deej and sent them links on recent posts they've replied to. This thread has 500 replies and stayed top of trending for 2 days during a time when Bungie will be looking for reactions to their reveals. Still ignored.
Now I'm not asking for the community manager to snap his fingers and give us all 9 of the missing exotics. We are looking for legitimate reasons as to why what we paid for is still missing 7 months later. Is that too much to ask or do the job requirements for community manager at Bungie mean that you have to be raised by an autistic family of Hellen Kellers living on a Pacific Island. A few words would suffice you know.
It really is stupid of me to be surprised by this tbh. After you've lied so much about SBMM, weapon balancing, reward fixing, etc., etc., etc. The list goes on and will go on for as long as this cancerous game reels in players and spits out cash over the next 10 years and as time goes by no doubt your relationship with the community will become even more poisonous.
What baffles me the most is the fact that your studio has 500 employees yet you struggle to cobble together a half decent AAA game. You have the Activision machine behind you and a hamster wheel crammed with behavioural psychology tricks (which btw doesn't make you the slightest bit decent) and you still can't make a good game. In Guildford in London a studio of 10 people created a game more beautiful and infinitely more replayable than yours with less money and worse tools. Not only do you lack ethics you lack competence.
If I were to buy Destiny 2 it wouldn't be unrealistic to expect the new CoD season pass on the disc and if we pre-order maybe we might be gifted an uncensored picture of Luke Smiths flabby arse. You really have become such scum Bungie.

Super bump worthy...just more Bungie bullshit
-
Yeah ! Throw your money first ! then Bungie will let you grind ! No money no exotics !
-
Good post I was wondering the same thing.
-
Like! Like! A thousand times Like! If all I can get with my Strange Coin stock is new/old gear, I am not sure how much Destiny I will be playing.
-
-
I bet they'll be in the paid DLC near the end of the year.....they need something to make people buy it lol!
-
You are right tho i eant what i paid for
-
Right on ..bump
-
we will get them eventually probably 3 months after the april update. i mean how long did it take for them to add the sleeper and they probably made the mission 24 hours before they released it because it litterally had no speech or quest info all it had was a node and no instructions on how to do it i had to youtube it.
-
Legal action. White House petitions. Oh lord. Either (1) they changed their mind about releasing these exotics, which is within their rights as a developer (not admitting they have is poor form, admittedly), or (2) they plan to put them out at a later date and the method of getting them is more complex than "Xur shows up with it." and they want it to be a surprise. But legal action and White House petitions to get Bungie to release gear? Get some perspective, guys.
-
I know exactly how to get Deej over in this thread! Quick, someone threaten to kill a duck!
-
Bump.
-
Maybe they were .................TAKEN

Could you please provide me a link to said interview? Thank you.

Why do people still listen to Bungie's promises? If I've learned anything from Bungie - it is not to listen to them at all, but just wait until the game is released, and then decide whether or not I will play it. They purposely mislead people to generate hype (good PR). I have zero interest in their little tidbits here and there to keep people on edge. It is all worthless. Just give a date, and I'll update if I want to and see for myself. If I don't hear their promises, I don't get upset when they break them (again). Only company I know that takes weeks to advertise something they could do in 5 minutes. When I was in school I learned to add garbage to a paper to meet the minimum required length. Bungie's PR team made an art out of it.
-
Maybe they're not being released because they're all -blam!-ing ugly with lame perks. Aside from the Blink helmet, anyway - and we don't need [i]more[/i] Blinking in PvP. Back to the drawing board, Bungie.
-
Warlocks have ZERO leg exotics HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
-
there's also that modified thunderlord which has void and solar damage instead of arc that they showed off.
-
-
Non of those exotics were promised, just speculated.
-
Edited by GrundleBeans: 3/31/2016 4:50:00 PMThis is all just useless speculation. Who says we aren't getting any of these with the update? They don't have to publicly invoke something by name for it to be in the game... and there's this little thing we call [b]"surprises"[/b] that make the experience more fun. Or would you all rather get everything up front and complain about having nothing left to look forward to?
-
I [b]NEED[/b] the Hunter booties!
-
I don't care if they are saved for later , just remove them from the armory because it's like a slap in the face like it's saying we are so close yet so far from obtaining them.
-
Ok, so I asked this question on a post I did awhile back. I'll have to see if I can find it. Personally I think the exotics should have come out with the new update. This would have been a perfect time to do so, but instead we get the AngryJoe slap in the face and the blatant disrespect to the community.
-
I predict people will request a nerf on the Hunter gauntlets (Shinobu's Vow) and the Titan boots ( Dune Marchers). Hunters with two improved skip grenades might actually be OP. Titans are already the fastest class, but giving them a tighter turn radius for shoulder charging and the ability to strafe quickly while ADS sounds deadly.
