Donkeys. Pirates. Laser light shows.
Now that I have your attention:
Dear Bungie,
It's pretty obvious that there's a lot of hype for Destiny, but sadly that means that [i]some[/i] people won't be buying it, they'll pirate it. Yes, even the console version of games can be pirated, using the crafty magic of these digital Bluebeards. To prevent this, I have some ideas that I believe Bungie should seriously consider to punish pirates, going in the vein of Game Dev Tycoon.
My ideas*:
-Legitimate copies should get access to the Tigerman. Bungie, you're making a mistake here, trust me. I know things.
-Pirated copies should be able to select the Tigerman, and only the tigerman, but upon exiting the character creation screen, their head turns into a [url=http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/098/7/8/I_found_Soffish_by_Halo2Girl305.png]Soffish[/url]. Upon headshot deaths, the Soffish explodes into smaller Soffishes that flop into the nearest body of water for further storage.
-Pirated copies should be harassed, consistently, by an intergalactic band of brigands that will be known as the Jacked Sparrows. Throughout the game, these pirates would -- randomly -- show up with near unkillable stats, targeting only the player and his squadmates/friends.
Personally, I think that this is something that would greatly benefit the gaming community and Bungie itself.
Sincerely,
A concerned fan
*Don't take any of these seriously, for your own health.

It's an always online game so piracy is pretty pointless, even then, Activision is rich, a few blackbeards running around won't kill them.
