We know it's not just something cosmetic because they said it was playable content.

No, you don't.

You can't play a skin or a hat.

And how the hell is a skin not "playable"? If it goes on your character or weapon and you are using it then you are PLAYING it.

I defy you to find anyone who talks about a weapon or skin or emblem or hat or design in English and says they're playing it.

At minimum it would have to be something like an early perk or character or level >that's outside of what other console players get or at least unlocked early.

Again, how do you know this?

Enlighten me.

If they told me I was getting exclusive playable content for something and it turned out to be some emblems, weapon skins, and hats, I'd feel like I was ripped off and/or lied to, so I guess it comes down to which thing you (or I) think Bungie's more likely to do.
