This entire mess was only "fixed" when game journos picked the story up, and you can't even own up to it. Congratulations, you're just as dishonest as every other big dev in the West.

I believe they've reversed this as it was a way to get people to buy silver, to then buy bright engrams. And a law is being passed in Europe that makes lootboxes and purchases of in game currency that buy RNG items, classed as gambling. So it wouldn't surprise me if they are trying to make headway on this. Either way, it shouldn't take news stories to make changes happen.

Edited by Ramirenzo: 11/26/2017 2:51:31 PMThis is just another example of how lootboxes destroy everything they touch. I mean bungie's lootbox system may be cosmetic only, but it's slimy as f*ck and I can't believe nobody saw it the second you had to take your bright engrams to the cash shop instead of the cryptarch. Gotta get people to the cash shop before they can spend their money, right? Well I say spend their money, what I actually mean is spend part of their money because in age old scammer fashion the amount of currency you can buy always leaves you with change left over to entice you to buy even more silver. I hope regulators worldwide have their way with your dirty little nickel and dime cash cow, I hope they tax the living s*it out of you and make you slap an adults only rating on everything that even approximates a lootbox. I hope the suits at Activision Blizzard and other companies like them are afraid right now, because the VAST majority of gamers are done with their lies, sick of their glorified gambling and are absolutely done with otherwise good games being irreparably tainted by corporate greed, and right now they're out for AAA industry blood.

Edited by PR4X1S: 11/26/2017 12:41:50 PMTotally true yet the fanboys will still say people who complain are wingers, WTF do you complain when you purchase trainers worth £70 and the sole comes apart after a month, hell yes you do why is this different, this game is trash totally oversold defective coded crap. We're already leaving this game in droves yet they implement an XP cut 😂 WTF talk about put a cattle prod behind us to drive us faster away from the game, Bungie Who's running things there Bioware?, because it seems like you're committing suicide.
-
Maybe they'll go back to the 3 weekly box limit like they had in D1. Then, let's see how much the community cries.
-
Bright engrams in no way affect game play,wtf is everyone's problem
-
Butt Lies all I got out of this Butt lies.
-
Most companies lie about something. This is corporate we’re talking about. I work for a bank and you could imagine the nonsense I see and hear.
-
[quote]Bungie speaks, but lies[/quote] You mean like how gamers called them out using DT to show the truth on how the player base is plummeting? ...and even though they are the ones that give the info to them, they had to hide it from the player base and called the player base a Liar?

Edited by Rai: 11/25/2017 5:54:09 PMBut truly, what incentive does a college educated computer programmer have to do anything for such a toxic and entitled community
-
No duh you people are so blind
-
The reason why that xp barrier was put up is what bugs me most. Just to get people to buy more bright engrams. Then we mention it and it gets a lot of attention, and ONLY THEN it got "fixed", you all are free to believe what you want... But you all deserve to be treated better.
-
Huuuuuhhhh! Bungles is the devil ? The great deceiver .. Satan is upon us ,repent sinners ! Lol
-
They saw the star wars controversy and started panicking. People in power are looking closer at these predatory barely legal practices.
-
Wah. I swear this community is more of the issue than the game lately. Just a bunch of sad whiners we’ve all become.
-
Man, I used to love Bungie. Now I can take em' or leave em'.
-
Bungie has not "lied". You cannot lie when you have never been honest. Everything posted/spoken/written by a Bungie spokesperson has been vetted, revised, and vetted again to ensure there has been no concrete, specific detail. All you get from them is statements that deceive, evangel, and obfuscate. This debacle is no exception.
-
Yep. Bungie is pure dodgy trash
-
We spoke and they fixed it and here you are complaining about how long it took them go somewhere else man. Yeah journos picked it up but that’s because the issue became a big enough problem. If they ran around trying to fix every gripe and complaint that showed up in the forums there would be an update everyday and no time to deliver what people want like new content.

Really sad that this practice was in place. Really sad.
