    Yeah Paragons financial success depends on your $10 bucks. The fools, what were they thinking. Now they're doomed. Your $10 bucks could have kept them out of bankruptcy.

    The announcements didn't look a bit ambiguous to me.

  5. The Prestige Earned was never anything more than a minigame SG's use to show who has the biggest epeen.

    Now separate lists that showed SG leaders how much prestige was earned and how much was converted from inf for each member could be a useful tool.
  6. If our free monthly points count

    Transfer Bundle
    Barbarian set
    Rover Board
    Aura Unlock

    Next will be the Enhancement Trays.

    If you guys mean how much money I've spent to buy stuff.

    Nothing.

    Do you want that list alphabetically, chronologically, or by severity of the offense?

    I find their declarations that they won't pay those prices amusing since as VIP's it won't cost them a penny if they just use the free points they'll be getting with their subs.

    As to the price of the extra Enhancement Trays, I think the price is more than fair. Especially considering how much money it will save on the cost of using Respecs and Enhancement Unslotters to strip a build of enhancements. Which is what many players have been begging for ever since the day respecs were added to the game.

    So much for being wrong.

    Oh and BTW, Canadians are North Americans. You seem to be confusing nationality with geographic location.

    Problem solved. If you can't get them no you can just get them later.

    I dunno...

    I know I am just echoing my frustration or concern, but hopefully people can understand why. I'm not like having a tantrum here, Im just hoping that the frustration it's self does not turn me off.

    It's to early to tell really, and I wont jump the gun, but I will admit that Im getting a touch sour in the mouth.

    Although you all have been really helpfull. Im just glad I went from having 12 controllers to having a decent mix.
    I'm pretty sure if you have enough vet/paragon rewards you'll have those restricted AT's unlocked.

    I never did get confirmation of whether that was WAI or a bug.
    Now I'm curious to find out.

    So what if they did release a boxed edition. As you pointed out you also got a free month of game time $15 dollar value and a free booster with a $10 dollar value.

    The edition only cost $20 bucks. People that bought it came out $5 bucks ahead on that deal.

    I've been accused of many ridiculous things in this thread based on the hope that I would respond in some silly exchange. Unfortunately it doesn't work that way in my corner.

    Let's see if I can make yet one more attempt to clarify this. I realize it's possible I haven't been clear, so what the heck, I'll give it another shot...

    ...There is no need to respond to anything that is baseless, exaggerated, dishonest, attempting to create conflict or hypocritical. Nor is it necessary to justify any and all of my actions or intentions to any member of this board. Those that wish to engage in this type of baiting and confrontational behavior possess opinions that mean next to nothing to me.

    My responses to those types of posts stand in direct evidence of that fact.


    The funny thing is I am absolutely sure the folks I am speaking about know EXACTLY who they are and will continue to attempt the same to no avail. It is my sincere hope that they instead choose to place me on ignore so the discussion can perhaps continue. They have to catch on eventually.

    I really hope that was clear enough.

    More proof he has no interest in discussion.
  18. The OP has stated more than once that nothing that gets said will change his mind so he isn't honestly open to any form of discussion.

    Oh and just an FYI, everyone got access to the AE when it went live. No one had to buy the AE edition to get it.

    (Me) So I get two for sure. I get that. I have only 6 or 7 toons. Are those the "Unlocked ones?" Or will I only have 2, and the top two of my list. Which are 50s an IOed with inventions.
    Premiums get 2 basic slots plus any extra slots they unlocked thru vet rewards (1 per each year active), 1 for each one purchased thru the store, and any that were awarded with the purchase of an expansion like Going Rogue which came with 2 additional slots.

    Quote:
    (Them) Invention system is limited
    (Me) For my two IOed toons that fit with the above statement, what happens to them. How are they altered?
    From what I understand they stop working unless you pay $2 dollars per month to unlock the temp IO license.

    [quote](Them) Chat Channels. Local, Team, Whispers (Tells)
    (Me) So...No Broadcast? I can't actually look for teams? I am the Co leader of an SG and I wont be able to work with my SG? Although I am allowed to join one?[quote]

    You can use the search tool and send tells out looking for teams like thousands of subscribers do every day instead of standing in a zone and using broadcast to LFT's.


    Quote:
    (Them) No in game customer support
    (Me) So if you're game is broken...and it bugs out, I can't have someone fix it, even though it was through no fault of my own?
    You can still file bug reports and file petitions but CS will not be getting back in touch with you personally like they do now. This is a standard in every hybrid MMO.

    That he didn't have legitimate concerns, but that his concerns bring to light a possible one.
    No. I wanted to post them anyway.

    If you wanna look at my realistic view of the game not lasting more than 2 years if this isn't a success as doomsaying then go right ahead. Come tomorrow we will be losing a significant # of Subscriptions, as they drop to Premium. If the amount being spent in the store doesn't surpass the amount lost...

    Call it DOOoooom if it makes you feel better, whatever. Logic tells me if we're (ViP's) the only ones using the store, and then only when new shinies are put up, then this game will no longer be profitable from NCSoft's far away view point. We all know what that would mean and it isn't something we want.

    If DDO and LOTR et al make free players purchase standard features such as chat access then my arguement is void, this being the only game I play I wouldn't know. All I know is I don't want the throngs of new/returning players to be so turned off at first sight that they don't even bother. We want them hooked and pumping money into the store after all.
    Making negative predictions before you have facts to back them up is Dooom! Don't try to BS a person that always assumes the worst is going to happen. I just don't post it on the forums.

    Assume the worst, hope for the best, and all of your surprises will be pleasant ones.

    Or if you prefer that I quote Lt Cmdr Susan Ivanova?

    No doom today. Doom tomorrow. There's always a Doom tomorrow. What? Look, somebody's got to have some damn perspective around here! Doom. Sooner or later. DOOM!

    No bleep Sherlock. Pay attention. I was specifically responding to Techbot Alpha not Arcanaville. That's why I quoted him instead of her. Most people can have multiple conversations going on at the same time on a forum and we can bounce back and forth between them.

    Not buying it. You chose to post this thread in the Player Questions Got a Question? Get an answer! Players helping players find information related to CoH/CoV. section of the forums because you intentionally wanted player responses to your thread instead of the devs, and you've been dismissive of everything that doesn't agree with you because you know that attitude generates the most responses from players.

    I want him and the others to dance for us on the tables during the Ustream. We can bid inf for them to shake their moneymakers.
