This is standard practice for mobile games.
Nothing outrageous here. It's just hilarious and slightly disheartening to see the way all the morons react about this.
You guys don't seem to realize that this is standard practice for mobile games.
They give you x amount of lives and once you use them up you have to wait x amount of hours to play again or else pay real money to play sooner.
It happens in nearly every single ftp mobile game out there. Just like Candy Crush.

That's not the argument. I personally enjoy playing Nightfalls solo. The added difficulty is satisfying. If I was forced to play with 2 other people then that would ruin it completely for me.
Matchmaking needs to be a choice, not a forced mechanic. That's not possible right now with the way matchmaking works in Destiny.
Totally agree. By placing the games on multiple platforms they have totally fragmented the story. I honestly can't keep up or remember everything that has happened.
Which is a real shame because the story is solid.
Sorry guys, I must have missed the things that Microsoft is giving away for the outage? Can someone tell us what Xbox owners get.
Oh wait, nothing, that's right....
So I guess we should all stfu about Sony not doing enough then hey.
People like you think they know what they are talking about. But you don't.
DDoS cannot be stopped. They can be mitigated but they cannot be stopped.

There is also a reason why America is the home of serial pests who try to sue anyone for anything.
Like the overweight women who sued MacDonald's for making them fat.
So when we see a video game where the main purpose of the game is to rape women and/or children, then you can all support that game too right? Because censorship? And all that bullshit.
You're all hypocrites, you don't mind things existing so long as you don't mind them. But if a game about rape comes out, you'll all condemn it and say it shouldn't exist. EVERY single argument that can made for why a game about rape shouldn't exist, is also the same fo...
Wait wait wait.
So everyone actually BELIEVED this rumor?
That a random stupid 'game critic' who created one of the biggest controversies to hit gaming in years, was hired by a reputable developer like DICE, and that she was dictating the entire development of the game?
Shit, gamers really are morons.
400k difference in NA.
Sony would have made back the difference in international sales.
My money is Sony still winning November globally. Who cares about US numbers.
Another quality article title on N4G.
Removes key features? No, no it doesn't. They can't play the weekly because it is a DLC strike.
This is a progressive game. If you don't want to invest in its future then expect to be left behind. Did this article mention how non DLC users are bring given upgraded vendor gear among other new features from the DLC? Of course it doesn't.
I mean, why would someone mention the positives.
Get stuffed Keighley!
You said this last year and the TGA's were total crap with zero good announcements.
You guys are missing the point.
Running in circles for hours just to get enough upgrade materials to upgrade a weapon is very tedious, and get's old very quickly.
It doesn't matter if it is easy, or is doable, it needs to be enjoyable, and right now, it isn't.
It's as simple as that.
Besides, buying materials isn't 100%. You can still run out of Marks and need to farm anyway.
You guys can talk Internets all day about how you know so much about marketing and that this doesn't mean anything, but the facts are that the game sold like crap, and all publishers will see this as evidence that games don't sell on the Wii U.
This is a bad thing for the Wii U regardless of bro talk.
Do you know how many times 'retailers' have said this? But yet the PS4 has revealed higher sales numbers regardless.
And if we are seriously going to start tracking console sales by week, then I give up.
Don't trust anything anyone says until the numbers are official.
Also, Xbox has not taken back the US or the UK.

Really? Halo MCC is probably the most important game that Xbox has released so fa...
The sequel will probably be officially announced late next year. With a late 2016 release.
And millions of people will buy it.
Just because some scrubs on the internet talk trash, doesn't mean millions of people aren't enjoying it.
The most successful new IP of all time doesn't simply go away because of a new Borderlands or sequel.
In the grand scheme of things, Destiny as it stands today doesn't mean much. By...
Valve now have a completely different view of what games should be. This has been influenced by DOTA2.
IF hl3 ever comes, and I don't think it ever will now, then it will not look anything even remotely similar to the rest of the series.
So wait, you guys are complaining because Sony is allowing you the choice of whether or not you register for those games?
That they aren't literally shoving them down your throats?
This is also about the Developers themselves, Sony offers them some kind of compensation for appearing in PS+, what that compensation is based on is anyones guess until we actually find out, it could be based on the total number of people who 'purchased' that game when ...
I am very confused as to what this article is trying to accuse Sony of?
It talks about how previously you only had to "purchase" a free PS+ game, but not download it, and could re-download it in the future, but then says that they are offering old games along side the current months games.
So what exactly have they CHANGED? They are offering more games? Because that's a good thing.
Also, Sony only just recently introduced a feat...
Just when we think that gaming has evolved to a mainstream societal past-time, rather than a geek hobby.
Then we see articles like this showing up.
The world is moving towards an anti-womanizing one. Articles like this have no place in modern society.
