    Don't give anymore free pass because of badges

    Your servers are unable to handle the influx of traffic due to the hickers who didnt have purchased the license for the content. Those who actually payed for the DLC are now unable to play. This should never happen.

    If people really love Destiny and want to support their game studio, they would purchase the license for the content they want to play. If they don't have the license to play and will miss a badge, that's their problem. What is wrong here is people who should be able to play at the moment are unable to play and are being kicked from the game because the instances are breaking always.

    No more freebies that bring harm to legit owners of licenses, PLEASE.

    or they could just simply spin up more servers when they know there is going to be an influx of players due to an update or event. You would think after all the GE's they would of learned a lesson but its the same exact thing every update or event. This is one of the main reasons im not preordering TD2, they have all this info from past mistakes and NEVER apply any of that knowledge to keep it from happening again. Or at least that is how it appears to us, what could be even worse is that they are actually trying to not repeat past mistakes and just simply arent capable of doing it.

    You really can't blame this on those who refuse to pony up the cash for the DLCs. Though I understand your point, but simply they all ready know some players are too cheap or refuse to spend another dime on the game. I say don't make badges that would make customers feel forced to buy your product. Or they could free up servers ahead of time for this situation, it's not like they didn't know it was coming or turn out the way it did. Every update, every GE, every Badge, every DLC. It's always the same issues and no one sees what is going to happen, ever. Yet we witness it every time.

    Well if i knew the dlc would be as bad as it is i would never have bought it, it is not about people getting to play free it is ubi/massives slow servers that they cut back.. and never fixed... They know with ge and now shields that more players will be in.. It does not take a genius to work out more server space needed...

    Minimum they should wait a week or two so the paying customers can enjoy what they bought. Not this we have to wait bs cause of all the cheap people who don't want to support the game.

    If people are to cheap or don't care to pay for all content of game that's fine but why give them a free week pass on DLC tied to next game? they will be too cheap to buy that game when it comes out and will wait till your selling it for 25.00 down the road.

    Also the shields aren't crap, its just something to do in a game that there is nothing new to do in, I mean really do I want a bear hanging from my back pack? That's a big 100% NO, but I will do the shields anyway so I have something to do, so back to same thing, if you didn't want to pay for the DLC then you should not be able to get perks that come with it.

    If you want to insult people you really should use proper grammar and sentence structure. I just have to ask what's a hicker lol? Also this is the division not destiny....

    By now all the DLC should be free games almost done and we’ve all go our money from the DLC.

    And if we’re really talking DLC content should never cost in a online MP game. They would’ve probably made more money selling cool visuals or vanity items.

    It's the games way of making profit after the original purchase. If the dlc is worth it I don't mind paying, final fantasy online occasionally would have "free login weekend" where if you weren't paying the sub you could play it gave new players a taste of the game.

    In my case I got the game for free, never felt the need or want to buy the DLC's and if they want to give us a chance to play them for free, I'll bite. Not for the shields which I could care less about, but just to see what I was missing (if anything)
