As much as I want this to be true I haven't seen a source confirm this. Bungie has not stated this nor its publisher. Only microtransactions from the kotaku article were confirmed nothing else. I also don't see it as a viable replacement model to what bungie currently has. It would be very impressive if their revenue could increase from this substitution. As such I believe it is additional supplemental income for bungie to help provide a cash flow for more and development that will still cost us money (which I'm okay with doing). But I agree microtransactions don't belong in $60 games. I buy a game, I would like everything to be obtainable through in game progress. This trend is not a favorite of mine. But in the end I'll probably end up buying things, because I am a weak willed man.
