Checking back in... Still time gated?

I paid for the ability to earn 18 exotic armors Bungie (which is what you advertised, it was right in a weekly update, not just in the database). Why are only 9 available to us? Plus, I know this isn't part of my argument, but 4 of them literally just give a subclass perk. Am I missing something here? I'd appreciate a list if I'm forgetting things, but I feel like we got half of what was advertised. Pro tip bungie: it isn't going to count as "free" content updates if WE ALREADY PAID FOR THE CONTENT. Edit: sorry, forget the new hunter exotics that no one uses haha. Graviton forfeit is really the best thing and it just grants a subclass perk. Hunter mains have my sympathy. Edit: Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but do you people honestly want less content? Do you want Bungie to not tell us when they're going to delay content that was sold to us? Do you think transparency just isn't important in matters like this? Do you think time gated content that we already purchased is a fair way to attempt to keep us interested? Edit: This post has taught me something. A large majority of the Destiny user base either A) cannot read. B) has no morals, and would be okay if they bought a car, just to find it doesn't have the advertised SEATS. Or C) Will literally defend anything that Bungie does. I thank the few people that can still think logically, even the ones that were disagreeing with my logically. I salute you, among a salty sea of idiocy. Edit: Again, this post is about the lack of information regarding the missing content, not specifically about time gating itself. And again, I am well aware that the terms of service has us by the balls. This does NOT mean it isn't false advertisement. It was mentioned that a half dozen for each class would be included, many of which are directly shown in the gameplay trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTvf2cAIUtk ADVERTISEMENT I know what the term subject to change means. However, this is more of a case of "subject to be cut out". Bungie did not state that NINE exotic armors had been cut until an unspecified date, and they not once have commented on the topic. Edit: have added the phrase "the ability to earn" to the first sentence since many on these forums [b]can't read past it.[/b] Edit: They have released the twilight garrison, a single one of the nine missing pieces. I guess they're going to come out one at a time :p

    They are simply trying to "win back" people who leave to play other games. Releasing new content soon in an attempt to get those players back. They are making a mistake

  • I never understood this properly. What was the official reasoning behind not making year 2 equivalents of all exotics available?

    • Come on releasing the Pearson heroic daily the day before cod and the SS quest before fallout 4. What next, do we get some new quest the day before battlefront?

      • So most people seem to be frustrated at the lack of relevancy of the previous raids/rewards myself included. You might even say that your getting bored and need something fresh in the game. I have thought of a way which might keep the old gear relevant and allow us to have fun doing so. I don't think anyone has suggested this but if they have forgive me. What if, if you had ALL your VOG armor you could infuse them together to create one piece of maxed out armor for example a helmet. This helmet itself is only obtainable by having that full set of raid armor from VOG. Now if you have ALL of the crota armor you can infuse it together to create a new chest piece. Then a full collection of POE gear can give you gauntlets and full collection of Oryx gear (harrowed) can give you a pair of boots once all that armor is collected. In order to finish this infusion of armor you would need 3 relics which you obtain by completing each respective raid/activity(POE). You could also obtain this shard by trading in etheric light at a 5-1 ratio. This would keep the etheric light relevant as well. These new pieces of gear are all legendary tier, they are maxed light level and have a bad ass design. It would allow you to show off your collection and would create incentive to replay the old content and keep it relevant. The same could be said for the weapons but with their respective archetypes: example all the raid auto rifles can be infused for one new badass auto rifle. These primaries can also be elementals. What do you guys think?

                • They know with Fallout 4 and a good Call of Duty coming out that they have to timegate things to keep people playing. Just another way for Bungie to force people to play the game the way they want them to play the game.

                        • Bungie definitely overstated the number of new exotics to the point of deliberately misleading players.

                          • I wouldn't be surprised to see new time gates at 310+. Thus forcing people into grinding the HM raid for shit rewards.

                                • I took a weeks break from destiny and realised when I logged back on there is literally nothing to do. I can't be bothered doing the shitty pvp bounties for any more exotics and I'm sick of waiting a week every time I get told to go see the gunsmith for a quest line. Just plain bored now and no real reason to play...... The carrot that we where all chasing is finally gone. Currently playing co-op halo5 which has reminded me how much fun a game can be.. And how much a real story can make you FEEL whilst playing. Destiny is slowly but surely dying......

                                    Just because someone data mined some stuff does not mean that it should be in the game. They don't owe you jack shit. You don't like it, don't play or go do what bdobbins does. Edit: oh it was advertised? Didn't know that! Datamined =\= advertised You advertise it, you owe it to us! However, there's gotta be somewhere that "content is subject to change". Remember that
