Forums - Gaming - Destiny’s PlayStation-Exclusive Content Detailed

Content should have parity in games at Launch.

Hell, you can take this even further and I hate the practice of "Special Armor if you Preorder From X/Y/ or Z". Its stupid. Paid DLC being timed exclusive (or hell even exclusive) is fine with me.

Ugh

Complete waste of time and money as ever, but it's not like I'm getting it on any other console

Destony PS4 sales will show otherwise.

That will be down to advertising rather than the actual content

See FIFA 14 on PS4 versus Xbox. That is with the Xbox having exclusive content

Marketing is a part of the exclusive content deal.

Okay

But the actual exclusive content doesn't sell anything and just annoys most people

At launch, PS4 and PS3 owners will get exclusive access to a unique co-op Strike located on Mars, an exclusive competitive map, and a slew of exclusive guns, gear, and ships.

i dont like this. i dont like when developers are holding a version of their game back to this extent. xbox owners are paying the same price and they should get the same content. if it were an extra few side missions like the AC ones i would say okay, not that big of a deal. but guns, ships, and gear directly effect gameplay. so yeah, i dont like this, i hope these are timed exclusive content, thats the best scenario i can realistically see happening now.


Did you see the "few extra side missions" in AC4, it was brand new maps set in america, with differenct characters and story. Easily on par with this level of content.

honestly i didnt, im not caring much for AC anymore. its more about the point of exclusive content than a particular game though.

I don't know, it kind of worked on me... I think... 

When I was debating between buying a ps4  or xone first this gen, the exclusive content on destiny was actually a fairly big factor in my decision, as destiny was my most anticipated game.  Was it the only factor I considered, no, but it was a factor in my buying decision.  People can be annoyed that companies do this, but their research must show that it has some effect or they wouldn't bother doing it...

when did you get so grumpy?  you seem much more pessimistic then you used to...

its not pessimistic. its just explaining that i am not really fond of these exclusive content on platforms for multiplatform games. i would very much prefer for all gamers to get the all the content made for all the games, rather than have small parts thrown aruond to try boost sales of my prefered console.

Why? Look at what you're getting. 1 map, 1 mission and a few weapons and skins.

How big is this game going to be? Huge! These little things are not going to make any difference at all
