The Biannual-Out: Beware of Bill Aims! :O

FORFILL your destiny and discard that failure of a game.

:edit: Failure of a microtransaction masquerading as a game

It isn't even the microtransactions that caused the major problems with this game, they definitely are a factor, but are more like the top layer/icing on the cake if anything.

edit: I've never spent a dime on that stuff and don't feel like I'm missing anything.

They wish they could fast forward to Destiny 5, with how shit Destiny 2 is.

Bungee with everyone's money .

Oh I didn't think you were insinuating that, I just wanted to be clear I wasn't trying to say the microtransactions weren't a problem as like a cover if I had spent a ton of money on it. I've bought the "Silver" (real money currency) in Destiny 1 one time, $5 worth, just because I wanted ONE item and that was it. Never in Destiny 2.

I should just make an essay of a post over in General gaming so you guys don't see me complain in here about it

so sick and tired of our shitty mail service the last 2 months it's been slower than a snail packages not getting delivered on time and even getting the wrong mail too frequently.
have a package that was supposed to be delivered today I check it's marked as delivered and in the box checked it 3 times nothing in the box and no sign of the carrier being through here today/ so now I get to wait till tomorrow to find out where my package is and more than likely get told to wait another day(which would sunday and mail doesn't get delivered on sinday's)
this has been complained about too many times and nothing has been done about it.

also forgot to mention, what do you think of those silly events they have been holding? XD from what i can tell they have literally just been using them as advertisments not fun little time wasters....i love the future its one huge marketing campain!

[Jazzmarazz]

Crash can I have your drugs?

...isit amazon?

no and it wouldn't matter it's the shipping service in this case dhl via usps. which reminds me why bother using dhl for small packages if they hand it off to usps for final delivery?

Depends on the event, as those seasonal/holiday events have been done since Destiny 1 launch, they actually built them into the lore of the game. Which is hilarious because this year they just didn't do the Halloween event at all (Festival of the Lost).
Now for Destiny 2, the events they have had were Dawning (Christmas), Crimson Days (Valentines), and then they do Faction Rallies and Iron Banner which aren't holiday but just limited time gameplay events that come around every month or so.

The Dawning was all microtransactions. You got one free item, then you could grind for daily items with a limited loot pool (all the good stuff taken out), so forcing you to pay. They did add snowballs in the world which were fun to use (they did a nice chunk of damage against enemies), which added a little variety for the 2 weeks.
Crimson Days was way better than Dawning, basically because people absolutely ripped Bungie a new asshole for how bad the Dawning was. All new themed items were obtainable through gameplay, they introduced a knockout mechanic so you woudn't get double of those items, and they had a Crucible (PvP) 2v2 gametype that was well received.
Iron Banner is just bad because in Destiny 2 they removed level differences for Iron Banner, so gear level doesn't matter at all, and the Crucible is utter garbage so it has nothing special.
Faction Rallies I hate what they did, in Destiny 1 you could be pledged to your faction of choice 100% of the time and earn their gear. In D2, they do like every 5-6 week, 1 week "rallies" where you can pledge and they "compete" against each other. It changes nothing, you do the same activities you always do, just can earn tokens to redeem at your faction.
