You could probably have said that you expect substantially more/better content additions alongside a paid season pass in the first post about it, or if you did then made it clearer. I'd pay for DLC that seems to be worth the money (like a class $10-20 as long as it's fun and original).

Didn't Crowfall do that too? "OMG new graphics guy, can do female centaurs now" or some shit like that?

I would not play season if I had to pay for it. Season isnt offering anything special that warrants charging money. If they added actual content to seasons that might be different, but right now all a seaon means is getting a fresh start (fun, and the reason I bother with season at all), a dozen...

Eh, I like that. I hate being invincible due to level advantage when doing old stuff I skipped past before. And it's impossible not to outlevel entire planets with the way xp rolls in. However, a toggle to downscale might have been less controversial.

This is my haul from the pre-purchase: Legendary: Aviana, Icehowl golden: healing wave x2, master jouster, boneguard lieutenant, druid of the saber, ice rager I'm not much of a fan of Aviana, so thanks for nothing. At least I had two giants I guess? Gonna blow 7k gold on packs and see...

At first I was thinking they might be worth it, but after looking at them closer I decided not to buy those. In the end the 800 gem bundle only has stuff I wouldnt buy, and if I subtract the stuff I wouldnt buy from the 2000 gem bundle I'm left with the stock price... so essentially only buy it...

Level 21+ is hidden behind a paywall in WoW - as are some features like ingame mail or whatever, not sure since I dont care about the F2P version. Funny enough I know people that treat WoW as actual F2P they just do BGs at the 20 and below breakpoints. Would bore me to tears but /shrug.

I sorted out the tablet issues and bought that 40 booster pack with the half-price coupon. I had to go through some fuckery with Amazon because of a store bug (boosters didnt show up) but when their support guy re-applied a coupon code it was a 100% off instead of 50%... 40 free bosters yielding...

Did you get a general idea of zone size? My main concern is that it'll be fairly small and not really worth the money. I'll buy it for sure but I'm kinda expecting to shell out $50 for what amounts to a new spec and roughly as much content as silverwastes + dry top delivered (which is fine for...

Giving alliance pvpers guise of the blood elf to shorten queues has nothing to do with removing their lore barriers.

That's still there, just shifted to mounts and non-combat pets instead of stat gear =)

So did anyone play the beta weekend? What did you get to play and does it shed a good light on the expansion?

I must be the odd duck here, I was entirely fine without flying and wouldnt miss it if they removed it from the entire game.

Transmog should be done like GW2 does it - collect every skin that exists if you want to, no space required. Honestly I was baffled by the (new to me) transmog mechanics when I picked WoW back up because it was so limited compared to GW2 at that point.

Imo WoD looked similar and promising before release and during the first few weeks - the problem was that alot of it was lackluster, had no depth and they didnt exactly burn the midnight oil to fix things. Legion might sound good but if they continue to half-ass it like they did WoD it will be...

It's an android samsung tablet, but from what I can tell the problem is that Amazon isn't actually offering the Hearthstone app for download currently.

I tried installing Hearthstone on my tablet through the Amazon app a few times, but it was never available. Does anyone know why? I'd like to take advantage of that promotion for classic packs but afaik you need it installed through the app for that to work.

They could balance the difficulty settings to provide both game experiences, but that has not worked for EU/EW imo. Impossible is randomly ballbreaking early on and you still get over a hill at some point where you cannot really lose anymore. Although since they will have good mod support for...

I'm not sure I like their design goal of making you overpowered towards endgame. I mean, that's the case with Xcom:EU/EW too, but I always enjoy the midgame more where you are behind in some aspects and struggling to make it. Once the aliens stop being ahead of your team and you...

That promise was Landmark - if Smed trying to be clever and smug on twitter or the like counts as a promise. We just didnt know about Landmark yet and assumed he was talking about a real EQN game. But of course SOE at that time knew about Landmark since those statements were around the time of...

I wouldn't even go so far as to say he cant finish this game on crowdfunding alone. I mean, how much do you estimate it'll cost for a reasonable release? And by reasonable I mean without many of the pie-in-the-sky features creeps he brings up in interviews, but also with enough meat to be...

Blackwulf is right about that, you know. Arguing that they might have Copernicus-like problems in the future is thin ice. You're much better off betting on Chris taking the emergency stash to buy an island instead of finishing the game. And it's not like being a publisher game or crowdfunded...

Does anyone know any promotions that might lessen the $50 hit for pre-order? I'm a sucker for card backs but that amazon points-back deal for GvG really spoiled me. Oh and brawls still suck, expansion without tournament mode but more random shit /sigh. Unfortunately it looks like the MTG...

Variise, the bottom line is money in both games. In SC, in-game money buys you the ships and there are no additional hurdles. EVE, you have the additional skill hurdle but since in-game money can buy skills (characters actually but same thing), you end up with the actual limitation being money...

One interesting tangent of this is, how much skill and knowledge will SC require to perform ok or better? Most MMOs are pretty much mental autopilot I believe EVE with their destructable assets and fairly difficult mechanics for a newbie (fitting, weapon types and ranges, transversial) would...

I am not leaving the ships out of the equation - which are the major factor of the cost on the SC side. Sure if you disregard that factor SC would do well in a comparison, and if that's your point we can agree to just have different view points on the matter. Agreed that EVE is in no way...

Do you or did you play EVE? Your opinion of the skill system makes me think you only have biased, third-hand knowledge of it. No matter how you view it though, in the end EVE allows you to buy characters (thus, skill points) with the in-game currency you obtain through play. At that point...

Isnt SQ42 just an updated Wing Commander? I think the Freelancer expectations point more towards the PU part of the game. I'm not seeing many box sales for SQ42 either, since most backers have it already. Anyway, IF they actually deliver the PU it shouldnt be hard to stay profitable with DLC and...

Do we even know if there are different stories per faction? I havent read everything about this expansion but the fluff points towards Empire and Republic being a thing of the past and you are waking up in a different setting that takes place decades after the current war (assuming decades based...

Thanks for reminding me, I would never get these goodies without this thread. Here is a fresh code:Star Wars: The Old Republic | Log in

After reading the first part and skimming the rest, it might be a good idea for Chris Roberts to divert some money into a personal bodyguard. That guy sounds like he might snap soon.

I hope they don't have respec bullshit - just copy how EVE does it these days (skill queue and all) and call it a day.

I dislike brawl as much as the next guy and stopped playing it right after my pack every week so far - but from what I can tell it has better rewards then casual and ranked play (both only give card backs, brawl at least gives extra dust). It's working a intended I think, being a nice diversion...

Fixes like this or the previously mentioned 2 power limited are a band-aid for this deck, just like the old change was a band aid for giant warrior. Without outright removing it, I'd say making the effect apply to the first minion each turn is the best solution. With that, swarming combos are...

I would pre-purchase this if they gave the impression that the xpac will have more then 3 zones bolstered by a "it's SO vertical" gimmick, but what they've said or shown so far doesnt really sound like it's going to be that much content. I'm seriously expecting them to deliver only slightly more...

Nope, havent read anything - if HotS went that fast it's just an exception in my eyes. A good counter-example would be Legacy of the Void and wtf how that is taking sooo long (and it's just an expansion).

Yea if this has the same level of quality as the Borderlands games it'll be good - if it's like those two mentioned above, not so much. Either way I doubt it'll rub elbows with Overwatch if it comes out this winter, since the latter is likely a 2017 release.

They'll make it a limited run and explain it with *lolreasons*, because they're not dumb. Why leave that money on the table?
