This is garbage! Why be so weighted towards playstation? Giving them a whole two raids over xbox. This is pointless and just splitting the customer base! Showing favoritism toward one platform will just push away the buyers of the other platform. Unless you think that xbox users are just that naive to the scam you are leading them to. Atleast make the xbox dlc cheaper if it's not going to contain the same content as the playstation platform.

I wonder how much Sony pays for it. I'm a ps4 player, but I think the continuing segregation between the two consoles makes me want to abandon destiny and ps4. I'm tired of people whining and I just don't care about the extras. They're not going to make someone buy a ps4 more than xb1.

Edited by Camping Aint EZ: 11/3/2014 11:42:50 PMI agree with you a hundred percent. It's bull crap that they do that. Not to be over dramatic, but creating that atmosphere is the same reason why racism is still a problem. Not to say xbox and playstation are contributing to racism directly, but it is contributing to hating people that aren't like you or don't like what you like. Oh but I do care about the extras. I just wish they would have fair pricing for both.

Exclusivity agreements don't split the player base because there is no cross-platform play. It's not favouritism either, it's business. Sony paid for the exclusivity. Just like Microsoft paid for Call of Duty exclusivity. If anything, you should be complaining to Microsoft, not Bungie.

Someone with some actual sense.
-
Consumer perception is everything. To say that exclusivity won't sway that for xbox users is ignorance!

Edited by InstaGood: 11/3/2014 10:43:45 PMPerhaps you should have bought a PS4 if Destiny content was so important to you. The exclusivity agreement was announced long before launch. There's also twice as many PS4s sold as Xbox Ones. More competition on this side of the fence.
-
I'm not going to buy a console for dlc. The main point is that Idc about exclusivity when it comes to early access or time, but more or less content is just pathetic. I'm not rich enough to buy another console or else by all means I would own a ps4 bc they do have some games I want to play, but I don't have that kind of money. And for someone to withhold content like that it's a poor business tactic and as I said pathetic.
-
Thank you for your feedback. You're still wrong though. It's a great business tactic. Providing more value to the bigger install base, instead of the much smaller and fickle install base on Xbox One that is more likely to move onto COD, makes great sense.
-
Edited by Camping Aint EZ: 11/4/2014 12:00:51 AMYou're right it is a good business tactic, just irritating, and that is smart, but it's unfair to charge $20 for less content. They very well could charge $15 andl $20 for ps4 and ps4 would still have the upper hand on content. Their pricing strategy is what makes bungie look so bad and kind of rubs it in to xbox users.
-
It's a timed exclusive. Xbox owners get it sometime next year. So you're not being charged the same money for less content. You're just not getting that content at the same time as PS4 owners.
-
No xbox users don't get one of the strikes or crucible maps at all. After this dlc drops ps4 users will have 8 strikes/ raids and xbox users will have 6. Ps4 users got an exclusive strike with the game that xbox users didn't. Dust palace and undying mind strikes are not on xbox

This article shows Dust Palace as timed exclusive: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/sony-flaunts-ps4-exclusive-destiny-mission/1100-6422098/ This article shows Undying Mind as timed exclusive: http://www.joystiq.com/2014/10/29/the-dark-below-expands-destiny-on-december-9/

Edited by Camping Aint EZ: 11/4/2014 1:07:36 AMYou just made my night lol! Thank you even though that will probably be a $20 xbox users will have to use that ps4 users didn't lol and that will give a extra 2-3 months to keep the xbox wom alive and also gives xbox users something to look forward to later on when ps4 users have already unlocked everything!!!! That is a great business tactic as well! Who am I to question the marking professionals of multimillion dollar companies!!!!!
-
Well my rant was ill informed and stupid! I apologize to Bungie and everyone who I may have influenced, but it was fun!!!

The player base is the game! We all play destiny so we are all apart of the same player base.
-
Edited by InstaGood: 11/3/2014 10:51:02 PMThat's a nice sentiment, but ultimately incorrect. Sony paid Bungie a lot of money for the exclusivity. That money offsets any profits they would have made from the markedly smaller Xbox One install base.
-
Edited by Camping Aint EZ: 11/3/2014 11:09:03 PMWhere are your sources that say that? How do you know that they cover the "smaller?" Bc if anything xbox users are covering both those costs bc of the overcharge. So I highly doubt Sony is covering any losses of bungie.
-
I'm using logic to deduce the reasoning as to why Bungie would accept an exclusivity agreement. Why would you take money from one company if you could work with two companies and make more money? Obviously, someone at Bungie did the math and determined they would make more profit through an exclusivity agreement. Companies don't withhold content out of spite, so what other logical reason could you have for withholding content? There aren't any. There's only one logical reason for such a move and it's profit.
-
And know you know how it feels to be left out
-
Not informed excuse me
-
How can you say this when call of duty has been doing this for the past 5 years. Giving xbox dlc a month in advance of ps4. Your argument is stupid and in informed
-
You still got the dlc!!! You paid the same price for the same amount of content!!!!! Not paying the same amount for less!!!!
-
The thing is though that so many Ps4s have sold that they wouldn't care if you Xbox fanboys left their game.

Edited by Camping Aint EZ: 11/3/2014 8:44:35 PMObviously you don't know jack crap about marketing and that if you are going to market to a group you better be ready to offer the same perks as you do towards everyone else or else your going to lose a fan base. Even if that fan base is only 15% what is 15% of $15,000,000. Which is lost by not providing the same content to all even though you are more than capable of doing so!
