Wish they would sell a digital addon to access that vendor. I would gladly pay some extra money to get access I just didn't want to shell out 70$ more when all I was interested in were the ingame items.

Does everyone get the vip bracelet now? I noticed I got one in my DCE and thought maybe they added the vip vendor benefit to it since I got the bracelet. I was unable to use the VIP vendor though so now I am not sure what the purpose of it is.

That is very useful info. I guess I only need to deal with it until I can unlock one more companion then.

I feel your pain, I turned it off at least 50 times last nite. It isn't just you.

First of all that link doesn't work. Second of all unless you are getting a dedicated gaming laptop from a company that makes them specifically to game you are likely not going to run it at those settings. I have a fairly new hp elitebook with the i7 and 8 gigs of ram and it will run it but it is on the lowest settings and still only get 30fps.

Not playing because I am at work. QQ'ing because I would rather have 4 companions out on crafting missions than the 2 I currently have.

How do you figure that? Sending multiple companions out on crafting missions doesn't apply to me because I don't like to quest?

The difference being that pvp gear is only really useful for pvp. Companions are a key part of the game for everyone if they want to craft.

I just don't understand why you are so against them implementing another mechanic for people to unlock companions. It would take nothing away from your gameplay, they could tie it to a point system for flashpoints or something.

They are essential to work on crew skills which I do care about.

It seems fair that there is the option to level in other ways, but that my way doesn't get me companions and yours does? That is just a ridiculous answer. If they put in options on the way to level they shouldn't gimp one playstyle over the others. Only catering to one playstyle is a good way to turn away big chunks of your community.

I did the digital deluxe and mine were in my in-game mail.

Then it was poor planning on their part. That forces everyone to quest and not everyone likes to do that. Personally I would much rather run flashpoints with my friends than run around and quest solo since we aren't all in the exact same spot quest wise. The problem with that is doing a single flashpoint and the space missions for the day put me higher than the recommended level for my class quests for balmora.

I can't agree more.

That is disappointing really wish they would break off those specific quests and allow them to be done on their own.
