Very disappointed in Digital Deluxe items. Not as Advertised.

I agree with the OP as well, the item description is very vague and opens the door for misunderstandings, as we are getting our first look at the items many people feel like they did not get what they payed for, and may have changed their order if they had a better description of the pre order packages.

I wasn't aware that the Mount wasn't the fastest type available in game.

Had I known this, I would have purchased a Standard rather than a Digital version of the game.

Caveat Emptor. Let the Buyer Beware. Suck it up and move on, guys. This is the least of Bioware's concerns right now.

omg it's a mature rational response. The end of times!!

Except that's bad business. I knew the mount probably wouldn't scale going in. But Bioware promised certain things in the other features that they haven't delivered on.

It's only Caveat Emptor if you assumed. They just didn't deliver on a few things, like the CE vendor. Which is what i'll keep bringing up until it gets fixed or we get a reply.

wait your suprised a pre-order item proves not to be terriably useful at higher levels?

No?

Read what I posted.

Glad I just bought the standard version, I like it better that way anyway see I need to find everything instead of getting some junk that I actually paid real money for, well except that black/yellow crystal which btw I am still using in my blaster cause its the best one I have come across so far at level 17.

Wasn't there talk from the devs about making mounts moddable, so they wouldn't become obsolete later in game? I seem to remember it being mentioned somewhere, I just hope that includes new engines to improve on speed too...

The CE/ DD items are underwhelming, at best. It's fine if they're all cosmetic -- there are just so bloody few of them. Calling the current selection half-arsed is overly generous, by about a quarter of an arse.

If I had it to do over again, I would have bought the standard edition.

Regarding the mount there are workarounds. Trion did it right with RIFT.

CE owners get a mount, quite common feature. It doesn't freely upgrade as you level up: it actually matches the speed of your best mount which means that you still need to spend money for a better speed. It is fair for everyone, CE owners still have to pay the same amount than regular players to get the epic speed but they still can use their CE mount.

It's the same issue with the crystal, there should be a way to turn it to a vendor and pay for a better version. On top of that to remove my CE crystal from my first pistol in order to get it back I had to pay 200 credits (which is a lot at a low lvl), nice move, thanks I guess?

That's the point: everything we get becomes obsolete with no possibility to upgrade. No one is asking for free upgrades, we are just asking for upgrades.

In the end, all my CE goodies remain in my lock unused since it is taking room in my inventory (this also is an issue). The only thing that will be put to use is my vehicle.
