Alienware, the King of overpriced Hardware!

You could build the exact same spec system for roughly 2/3 what they charge.

Ah, yes. Would have spawned multiple threads about how the mystery new AT is OP, or too weak, or needs more cow bell, etc!

Source? There is no mention of it anywhere.

They also have strengths no other AT's have. It is not the AT that is bad, it is the player. It takes a lot more thought and tactic to play a Khledian than it does any other AT.

And yes, a Kheldian does out perform all other AT's in the sense that they can do anything any of the other AT's can do. Granted not as good as the specialized AT, but they can do it all. In some cases, even better depending on the player.

I am not saying anything about the unlock level, but rather the apparent lack of knowledge of Kheldians some people seem to have.


As for the VEAT's, yeah..a Widow > Stalker any day. a Soldier/Crab is a HUGE boon to any team, get 3 of those on your team with toggles and its easy mode on any difficulty. On average, the VEATs bring more to a team over all than most other AT's. Again, if played well.

Actually, your post is the joke. You claim you are "suffering"....yet, you have NO DEBT of any kind including credit cards and live in a house that is paid for.

You sir, do NOT belong in in the category of people you are so desperately trying to associate yourself with, and for some odd reason I am even offended by your post.

Maybe the reason has something to do with, while I am not going to go into any personal details, I do belong to the category of people you try to include yourself in, and I would kill to be in your position. If I can come up with the money for the pre-order (amazing what some people will pay for your stuff you consider junk on ebay) then you certainly can.

That's all I have to say about that...

Horse, Dead, Beating. This has already been resolved, thank you, come again!

That is only some of what my responses have been, but if you choose to just focus on that part then that of course is your prerogative.

Pardon me if I happen to prefer facts over fiction. Wishing for something does not make it true, and I see no point in getting peoples hopes up for something that has not even been confirmed.

P.S. Your response would have been perfect if you had left out the second paragraph which had nothing to do with my question.

Anything pointing to this other than rumor and guessing?

To answer your questions,

Yes, I do think those are two of the best things to come out of this expansion, aside from swapping sides. Also, those two power sets got the most "oohhs" and "ahhhs" at Hero Con as well.

As for there being new level 1-20 content, I am not that excited about since they have already drastically increased the leveling speed from 1-20 it will go by very fast.

Costume Pieces, yeah..those are fine, but not "OMG, YES!!" quality material for most people. Yes, I know many will be over joyed with it, I am just giving MY opinion on it.

The "massive graphics upgrade" is nice, however given the average player of this game will not be able to use it at its highest settings, and possibly not even its mid level settings, I would say it is a nice addition, and personally I like it, but many will not even be able to run it without having to spend more money to upgrade their systems. One of the best things about CoX was that it was able to run well with bells and whistles on with a relatively low to mid level computer system.

what new Archetypes? There are no new archetypes that I am aware of, and if you are thinking of Rogue, Vigilante, etc those are not Archetypes. Archetype is like Blaster, Scrapper, Tank, Stalker, Dominator, etc.

To me, that would also be nonsensical.

To answer your question, my thought process was that they said you would get access to them for March and April, but does not mention May or June. Why would they say you just have access to them for March and April, and not May and June. I would think they would just say March through July, or something like that.

This is why I really hate ambiguous statements, since a devout believer and a hard core skeptic can take the same statement and come to two vastly different conclusions.

It just seems extremely weird to me that they would release 2 of the biggest key features of an expansion so early. That would seem to be akin to World of Warcraft releasing the Death Knight class 4 months before Wrath of the Lich King was released.

Just to explain my thought process, and not to beat a dead horse, but to answer your question is because the Beta is being done in stages, and pre-orders get in on the second stage, not the first stage that is going on now, or so my thought process went.

And yes, enough of people quoting my same responses and answering them in the same way, really, if you aren't going to post something different than the dozen people before you, then just don't.

Care to enlighten me, since you didn't even answer my question, rather than just posting one liners to up your post count?

On second thought, never mind. I am done trying to use logic here since obviously it doesn't work.

I will just come back on the fourth with my sign.

Because that is a common perk among pre-orders, access to beta.

Well, they didn't say it was for only live servers either.

Are you?

Not that it makes any difference, but no, for this stage I am not in the beta. I have been in several of the earlier ones.

But I have also played on Test server for years, and yes the occasion to be auto-leveled does sometimes come up but not often as this would be counter productive to the testing purposes as none of the lower level powers or content, (whatever is being worked on) would not be tested correctly.
