Digital Deluxe Edition was USELESS!

I must agree with the OP here. I have the regular edition of the game, but I'd be disappointed if I bought the deluxe version for the speeder (which I considered) and it didn't scale. That is not a game-changing element that affects either PVE or PVP. It's just for convenience.

Now if the color crystal increased your damage by over 9000, yeah, that would be game-changing and unacceptable. But I don't care if someone spent more money than I did and got a speeder that scaled with level. Pf.

I JUST hit 40 and found out that the cool mount that we get from this Edition does NOT SCALE. It is stuck at 90% You do not increase to 100% as soon as you buy level 40 speeder training.


I am horribly disappointed Bioware.

ditto, the statue is about it. the soundtrack disc is garbage, boring and mostly cantina music. ***!
Is this where I put the signature? Well I want to show everyone I have the collector's edition and seem like a really cool guy. Will bold type and color text help say that?

I feel so ripped off for buying the CE, I really do. I could feel the devs laughing at me when i opened the CE ingame store the first time. It was like they gave me the finger while calling me sucker at the same time.

A unique store for CE owners! They just "forgot" to say its doesn't contain anything. The only thing remotely useful, fun or somewhat interesting I get from buying CE is the fleet passes, that everyone that has an authenticator also get.

If I was a dev, I would seriously feel ashamed over scamming a great deal of your customers like this

Although it was $20, and I was expecting a level 50 with top tier gear on a silver platter, I have to agree with those who feel let down by the extra $20.

It was 8k credits for the mount equivalent that we got, 40k to train. Really? And the crystal, well, yeah, I took Artifice, and 2 levels after I started using my Pre-order gem, I was crafting better. No, I didn't rush the content, but I did however expect a bit more for $20. The vanity items sit in my cargo hold, sadly, taking up space.

Ah well, guess I've wasted $20 on worse, hehe.

Probably should've looked at what you were buying and made an educated decision.

I love my flare gun. I use it all the time to signal to my group that we're moving or stopping. I'm very glad I have it.

I never wanted the holodancer to begin with.

I use the holocam very frequently.

I love my little minimech droid thing.

The colour crystal is acceptable. It's different and it's rather useful at low levels to help get you started, especially as a non-Force user.

Did you really think that the speeder scaled? That's truly your own fault for coming up with that idea with no supporting evidence to come to that conclusion.

Did no one else notice this was a necropost?

I got the DE cause Stephen Reid told us during beta that we could mount at level 1... and then because every other triple A mmo on the planet allows for mount scaling.

But it wasn't until release that Bioware proved it's game cheap knock-off of a modern MMO... with lots and lots of cut scenes.

Actually, I think you misunderstood what he what he said, reread it again.

He said, at level 40, he realized that the mount didn't scale. Meaning he was already using it, from 25 and on up, and when he hit 40, he thought that he'd pay to get the skill, but the mount itself would scale to 100% (from 90%).

I'd take back that "troll" comment now.

Why should a mount scale? How can you even come up with this idea?
