Your continued lack of desire in supplying me with Titan Weapons makes me sad.

Autumnal Path, nice and pirced nicely, i've got an alt for it, so will pick it up.

GSD, probably too much for a vanity item for me, probably. Especially with no concept or current alt to apply it to.

Which is a shame since its awesome

Bought the pet despite its price. Don't get the wrong idea on future pets though -- I'm buying it as an investment toward future stuff with the new four-legged rig.

Also, it needs to work with [Walk]. It's a roleplayer power; needs to be useable while walking.

vanity pet is too expensive for me

got the autumnal aura last week

so i guess this week is another "pass" from me

Nothing wrong with the items. Just still way overpriced for conceptual, vanity fluff. Nothing I have a current need for (much like the last several weeks). Pass.

What do you know, this Freedom model isn't continuing to drain me after the initial layout after all!

And from the looks of the Gunslinger costume set as it is now, that useless mess will not go on my menu either. Too bad, that one I was looking forward to.

Defo passing on this too...there's too many aimless pets as it is!

Hurry up and give me something I can spend my PP on!

I'm not changing this signature until I'm proclaimed 'King of the World'.

I second the need for it to work with walk as well as the other "vanity" non combat pets, like the Vet Reward pets, and the MVAS. Also, why don't these powers work at the same time... I would maybe like to have my Dog out alongside my Rikti Monkey...

... also, frankly the dog, it's slow... a dog runs at 35mph... so I shouldn't be losing my pet with my normal jog...

I bought the dog as support for the 4 legged rig, I hope we can see more pets in City, perhaps even an Animal Mastermind... (3 Lions, Two Tigers, and a Bear?))

Seriously, no TW again? The dog for 500PP?

Ugh.

After the patch last week you think they'd try to at least give us something good on the market...hells I'd have forgotten all about the bugs had TW been released. Instead we get an overpriced vanity dog.


Buahahahaha!

Hmm I like the idea of four legged models in game could be the sign of future powersets? now the rig is there perhaps we might see Animal Mastermind or (please, please, please) Shapeshifting!?

But I agree its over priced for a vanity pet however I do see the above as positive which is good

The bundle for the Halloween pieces is missing even though the end date isn't until the 18th. I was waiting for my stipend to come in before buying it, so where did it go?

The individual pieces are still there, but not the bundle. Like hell I'm buying those things individually for twice the price (not to mention not enough stipend to cover it).

500?!
Seriously? Sorry, but...wha? For a non-combat pet I fail to see the justification for that, even bearing in mind the new rig-tech and all that. 100-120, maybe. But not nearly the price of a powerset.

Which is a shame, 'cos it is really nicely made.

Their continued desire to adjust the set based on player feedback should make you happy

Hopefully the devs are working on the terrible TW flying animations. Not sure what else would be holding it up.

As I said in the other thread, my theory is that they just released a bunch of new and/or improved stuff for the 50+ game, with another trial set to be released soon, so they would be foolish to release something like a new power set that inspires players to roll new characters.

500pp for the Dog Pet that can't be used with walk?

Nein. Not going to get it, the price is too damn high.

Also, still no sales.

I've been hoping Costume Slots will go on sale again, and Character Slots would go on sale for the first time.

I get that you (Paragon Studios Marketing group) are still trying to figure out appropriate pricing. However, despite being continually told, you are constantly missing the mark. You are simply charging too much.

This is extremely over-priced for a non-combat item that can't be used with other "vanity" pet toggles (whoever came up with that particular idea should be smacked upside the head) and buff pets.

The MVAS non-combat pet is 350 points.

To put it in perspective:
  • I consider my baseline a full power set or costume pack to be worth 400-600 points.
  • Account wide non-combat items (vanity pets or transformations) should be 200 points or less.
  • One use buff items should never be more than 80 points, and probably closer to 20-40 points.
  • Items with extensive use such as extra enhancement storage should be 800 points.

So, Zwillinger...what was the exciting news you were going to have for today? The "groovy" news?

Unless you meant the "doggone" part of it, which is just sad. Can you at least explain the sudden and drastic off-the-cliff plunge in City standards over the past week or so?


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
