Discussion: Featured Items at the Paragon Market - 11/1/11

If the non-whistle components of these were permanent powers so I could always have a shotgun and baseball bat on call (which would be cool for natural street thug characters and such) then it might be tempting.

But I will never spend points on a consumable.

Disappointing, but not unexpected. With Titan Weapons on the horizon, I expected a week or two of uninspired deals.

The sad part is, I rather like the concept, but can't imagine this selling too well. 400 points is a lot to spend on temporary items of dubious value.

Oh well. Next week.

tbh even if it was free waiting for me to claim in my emails when i logged in - id just delete it

*sigh* Well, I guess not every week's offering can be a winner.

I'll be skipping this one for all the reasons people mentioned above.

Yet another OVERpriced pack that I'm sure will sell....to new F2P'ers...maybe.

Yo NCSoft? please stop insulting our intelligence with overpriced crap like this.

...that is all

Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

LOL--very clever

However--400 pts?!?!

Where's the Axe of Undead Slaying?

If you got a permanent of each: a holy shotgun, a cricket bat, and a "chainsaw" of undead slaying it might be worth 400 pts.

Not every week can be a winner, but... this is a poor showing.

I really wanted a puppy.

You guys are planning on giving us those [Wolf Pets] some day, right? Or did you just put the description in-game to tease us? Because that would be evil.

Inclined to agree with Nos482, here.

And by inclined, I mean tilting my head in confusion and uncertainty at this. My first thought was: Um, ok. Really?

My second thought was that, since my computer with CoHF on it is still in storage until this weekend at the very soonest, that between this week and last week's releases being profoundly shallow and soulfully meaningless that I... 'guess'... I can be happy that I'm not missing anything beyond the ever-shrinking Halloween Event.

To be fair, I was hoping such would be the case. However, the last two or three Tuesdays have me somewhat concerned going forward. By which I mean, I'm more than a little alarmed at the total lack of substance in releases from the recent past... I sincerely hope this is temporary.

Raven.

PS And yes, I'm aware each week will vary in it's Cool Point Ratings, not just generally but from person to person. I'm also aware that there was likely a decision made to not release anything dramatic so as not to compete with the already atrophied Halloween Event.

BUT (tm).

This week and last were astonishing in the seeming absolute lack of anything noteworthy. I'm hoping this was only for the anemic Halloween Event period and that next week we'll be amazed again. I really am, because if not...

<shakes head and walks off>

You've got to be kidding me,... weaker than weaksauce. Yes I did buy a bundle of points but you're not convincing me to use them.

And yet again another week with no items on sale. How about putting the character slots on sale and encouraging players to make some more alts, or a sale on enhancement boosters even?

Ah well, lots of other good games to spend money and time on going into November. Still have to sit down with the second installment of a certain caped crusader. ;P

Knocked this one out of the park guys. Bravo! I'll be buying three of these. >.>

Maaaaaaaaaaaaybe if they were account wide.

And I had more than a day and a half of zombie invasions to use them in.

Next time, bundle the Bloody Bay and Warburg temp powers. People will pay $5 to never have to set foot in there for those again.

This really needs to include at least one permanent benefit (Permanent bat power, shotgun power or something) given the cost. I wouldn't even spend 5 points on this personally. You guys are my favorite MMO team, but this just looks like an attempt to make uninformed free players waste their points.

This is great for 2 reasons:

1- This fits perfectly with our Zombie Æftermath theme for the AE Storyteam next Sunday on Infinity.

2- Since it's just silly consumables I wont buy, that means 1 more week of saving my monthly stipend for something truly awesome!

They need more off weeks like this so I can build up more bank!

I will definitly not pay 400 pts for a pack like this.

sorry but no thanks

Dear NC Soft,

Thank you. Thank you for providing me not only with a crappy deal that will make me save my hard-earned money for actually worthwhile stuff, but also an extra-long down-time on a bank holiday so that instead of wasting it playing your game I went and spent my dough on other video games. You really double-shot yourself in the foot there.

No, seriously, what the *heck* are you thinking?

Seems like someone messed up, April's fools is NOT in November.

Sorry to join in on this hate party, but I must agree....this is about as lame as it gets when it comes to weekly releases. Downright shameful showing this week, Paragon Studios.
