We're all proud of being part of year 1, whether you accept it or not. And with the recent unveiling of the new shader, I had a thought.
I HATE it.
Why on earth do we need ANOTHER black and white shader? Whats the reasoning behind that? I've been a loyal supporter of new monarchy, and my friends live by dead orbit and future war cult. I have nothing against against the colors, but have they thought we have a tad bit too much of it? I mean, black/orange is an option, black/blue even. God even something as generically "cool" as black/red would be a welcome introduction. And I'm atleast keeping half of the motif there, they could choose drastically different colors, as long as we don't get repeats of shaders we already have. I know you revenant users and dead orbit players would be have stronger opinions than me, so why not share em' here?
Edit: Welcome to the part where I yell at the forums because they don't get the point. This is not complaining about what they're "giving us for free", even though that's a dumb comment in itself. It is about the DESIGN of the shader. If I handed you crap on a stick, you would have to accept it because i gave it to you, regardless of it being crap, as per most of your logic. And while this shader is far from crap, it adds to the eye sore of the ridiculous amount of black/white/monochrome shaders in the game already. We (atleast i hope we) want something interesting to look at that also lets people know we did something cool. Is that too hard to ask for?

I think it looks both sleek and sexy
-
Only remotely black shader I have is sun setting. So I'm happy.
-
I get your point. There are a heap of black/white shaders and a lot of red/brown/yellow shaders. The Nepal shader I got yesterday is very sweet so I hope you contributed to that worthy cause and got that
-
I don't have a black shader so I'm looking forward to it.
-
It's alright looking. I don't have any real dark shaders so I'll rock it.
-
Isn't the SUROS shader red, black and white? We get it just for pre-ordering too.
-
Yeah I don't have one so I'm kinda happy. Still a very small consolation for the lost year (not a typo)
-
I'd have liked to see something unique like chrome ,but I'll take it (have the perfect character for it.)
-
It's a copy of Revenant. Why? Because even bungie knows that Dead orbit is the best and has now blessed all those poor dead orbit followers who still don't have one
-
I like it. It means I can stop grinding Dead Orbit and pulling Motes from the faction packages
-
I love it it is ALL Black and it has stripes, heck yes
-
Yes! Revenant won't drop :(
-
It's a rip-off of Revenant... there's gonna be so many wannabes out there once they get it lmao
-
I like bright shaders... So i am disappointed about this dark one... Oh well at least i won't need to grind for Dead Orbit shader now if i ever want a dark shader...
-
I don't like the tiger stripes
-
Looks exactly like revenant ffs
-
Not as a replacement/apology for some of my exotics not being useful outside of pvp.
-
Do you need to buy the taken king in order to get the vip stuff?
-
It is what it is and I will probably equip it. Just saying.
-
This thread reminds me of auntie Annes because it sure is [i]salty[/i]

Well, there has not been a full black shader released yet. You being New Monarchy should be happy you were given the God of War shader. Black is also the color of the most elite units in Halo, and the stripes are from the scratched idea of tigermen. I think you should be happy you're getting free stuff. The DLC is bound to have more interesting shaders, the Veteran one is just for showing off.

Where can I see that shader?
