Wodaz Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 You would not the CC if you did not pay your $15 a month though. So it's the f2p people wanting more for free?!? Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infernixx Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 While I support paying money for all the new CM stuff this seems to be a step to far. Really? Real life money for a barber shop I already pay a subscription and this is a very basic function that people wanted from day 1, having me to pay again is dumb Chances are, you'll be able to purchase it with credits, just like every other legacy unlock.

Lung_Tien_Lien Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Hmmm, this I'm actually all right with. Of course I would prefer to have the option available for credits, but I'm okay with it. It's straightforward and I think many mentioned being willing to pay real money for that option. Though I am happy with what my characters look like, I'd be willing to pay for this as well. I do hope the price won't be outrageous, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lent_San Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Subscribers get 500cc per month, with CE and Security Key holders getting more than that. Exactly. You pay for them. There is no such thing as a free CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shefflad Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 So it's the f2p people wanting more for free?!? Lol! Who mentioned F2p players i am stating a fact that if you did not pay your monthly Sub you would get no coins. So to say they are free is wrong as they are included in the monthly sub which you have to pay to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jankiel Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The way I see it this should be free to sub'ers and cost CC for non-subscribers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernixx Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Exactly. You pay for them. There is no such thing as a free CC. Too true. But that means you're only paying $10 a month for your sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to say they are free is wrong as they are included in the monthly sub which you have to pay to get them. We treat/view them as free because they were added to our subscription plan at no extra charge. In any price comparative discussion it will be necessary to factor in the additional CC that we receive, as WoW(or insert other MMO here) doesn't give store credit for species changes along with a subscription.

Lent_San Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Too true. But that means you're only paying $10 a month for your sub. I haven't ever paid any more than that, yet gotten in-game content for free. Going F2P, they actually charge me double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wodaz Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Exactly. You pay for them. There is no such thing as a free CC. Again, yes they are. They weren't there when the game first came out and I still payed $15 a month now I do get them and I still pay the same amount $15, so how is that addition to my virtual currency not free?

Korbanth Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 id be more concerned if Cathar were only on the CM. Subs should get the new races for subbing when it was first announced before CM was created, Cathar was said to be the "First race attainable only thorugh legacy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you have to use them for in-game content that was free for subs before going F2P. So they're not free. You required to spend them for in-game content. They'd be free if you could use them for anything OTHER than in-game content. Edited March 21, 2013 by Lent_San Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What in-game content was available to subs before f2p that we are now paying for with CCs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gear, speeders, mounts, vanity items.... all those were free to subs before the game went F2P. In-game currency only or quest rewards, like it should be.

todorovh Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Like the title says I'm a little disappointed about the new sort-of "ingame barber shop". There are several reasons why but first I'm going to put the quote from the "State of the Game #3" here. While I first read it I was like "Great! That is awesome!" But then I took a closer look. "...using Cartel Coins." To me this seems like too much. But first lets talk about the species change. To me that shouldn't happen because it isn't "realistic" but I found that it could be ok. The other things like hair, body, and eye color was all fine. But why with CC? This game is turning into "Your a sub but you have to pay MORE real money for basic features like a barber shop!" I could understand the species thing being in the CM, but ALL of the barber shop?! That is going too far. What next? Having to pay money for certain class abilities in the CM? Whether you think so or not barber shops ARE basic features. Personally I think they should've been ingame since launch. But why do we, the players, have to pay MORE money to you for a basic feature? I think that they should change this before they release it. BW should either take out species changing or leave it in the CM... BUT make the rest of the "Barber Shop" not cost CC. Make it ingame currency. If they don't I'm not sure how much more I can take. Yes all these new CC market ONLY features are hugely disappointing. A guild member just quit the game specifically because of the CC market reputation. This is EXACTLY the type of bs we were expecting when F2P was originally announced. Some of us have been subbed since day one and played through underpopulated servers and 6 months between new content. ALL features should be available to subscribers .. otherwise why should i be subscribed, it'd probably be cheaper to just buy weekly OPS passes ( I can live without PVP ). Again this is hugely disappointing news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small additions like this will be based around the CM for profit I don't think anybody is surprised, just voicing concerns that if they take it too far they will just cripple the game again in the long run.

Philastra Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Waitwaitwait. What in-game content was available to subs before f2p that we are now paying for with CCs? This is exactly why the subs dropped, and the way they are implementing the CC market they will drop more, but the good thing is that all the ppl who buy a lot on the CC will remain and that's what the game will turn into.
