"The microtransaction engine may match the junior player with a player that is a highly skilled sniper in the game. In this manner, the junior player may be encouraged to make game-related purchases such as a rifle or other item used by the marquee player. " |
| Quote: | | "Doing so may enhance a level of enjoyment by the player for the game-related purchase, which may encourage future purchases," according to the patent. "For example, if the player purchased a particular weapon, the microtransaction engine may match the player in a gameplay session in which the particular weapon is highly effective, giving the player an impression that the particular weapon was a good purchase. This may encourage the player to make future purchases to achieve similar gameplay results." |

Why say: for example?
If you want an answer you need to be specific, these cdkeys stores aren't unified and send them out at different times. 
If you want to test it properly there are better games out there at this very moment. No need to wait for a key.

So instead of matching players with similar skills together they're gonna match noobs with experienced players to ensure they get wrecked and in turn hand over more cash... 
But i thought it was all about making the best gaming experience possible... 
These cunts have no shame whatsoever.

Have you tried sending them a message?
Normally they will answer in 24h or less.
Though personally i wouldn't get my hopes for, and expect to get the keys on release day only.

Looking forward to this, but its a bit unsettling how much bad criticism the game gets from fans.

The times I ordered from them it was mostly a day before release, sometimes on the day and in the rare occasions of a Monday release they have send it on a Friday or Saturday (can't remember exact day when it happened.) |

I've played Destiny 1 and 2. On both, I only bought them because a really good friend of mine wanted me to play it with him.
I played the first one a bit more than the 2nd. I got past the main campaign (dumb story btw but most games are that way) and played a bit after... but i couldn't stomach much of it.
I'd say i put maybe 25 hours into it.
I'm sure that the PC version will feel a lot better than console. But it isn't going to save it from it's boring missions, lackluster guns, and a slew of other things I just really didn't like about it. I liked the 1st one better.
Meanwhile, I'm 190+ hours into Warframe and still going strong. I picked up Warframe on a whim when another friend told me i would like it better.
Everybody likes different things. But Destiny just doesn't push the right buttons with me for whatever reason.
