I would take 343's Guilty Spark voice right now! Heck.. even Cortana with a cold would be an improvement. North just sounds way too happy about every single thing. It really doesn't matter. They won't change it. We are screwed no matter if we play or don't play.

Have you noticed that it's now impossible to play hard mode on TDB and HoW campaign missions? Way to lock out previously accessible content.

Yeah.. all the previous strikes are gone too. You can only do a level 20 strike now with 2.0. It's just their way of saying "no pay, no play". I have not pre-ordered TTK. I am saving for a xbox one. There was no real sense in ordering for the 360 that will be replaced by Christmas. I wish they had done a "demo" TTK upgrade. Something like the demo they released on xbox live. You can do the strikes and next two levels but that is it. The demo was the reason I got the game. The lock out is probably going to be the reason I wait on getting TTK.

Yeah, I've played the new update for less than a day and can already see where this game is heading (further down the toilet).

I was hopeful for TTK DLC. Now after playing the 2.0 update I am less hopeful. I just see more grinding in the future to get back to where any 34 lvl guardian is now. And I am sure they will do it again in the next DLC update...
