I just clicked the link on the original post and it still works. Dulfy has it linked on her website as well.

If it included 90 days of game-time + the content for 9.99 then I would probably pick it up for the sole reason that you're getting 3 months of gameplay for almost 1/5 of the normal cost...

BioWare is in no position to charge extra* for this kind of content right now.

They should be mending fences and fixing their game rather than looking for ways to gouge loyal customers.

If it is a paid expansion then I'll be cancelling my subscription and I know I'm not the only one. The game has huge potential once it's out of "beta" but right now there are simply better games at better value on the market.

It would be such a shame if this is the case.

* Including 90 days of free game time in a $9.99 deal isn't extra, and is of course a good deal, but in the surveys that is far from the only option.

That's not necessarily the case. "This year" could be used as a phrase meaning the same thing as "within a year of announcement". I'm not claiming this is a common construction but it would not be considered a lie if the content came out on 5/10/13. "This calendar year" has a much more defined meaning.

If I had to guess, they'd probably try to make in coincide with the first anniversary.

I just checked my receipt for my regular copy of Cataclysm, I paid 39.99 at Gamestop December 2010.

If that's true, and they never charge for an expansion (or a mini-expansion as this looks like), then I will be ecstatic! I can imagine Blizzard would be pretty damn pissed at them for giving us free expansions though ....lol.

The red word isn't true though, they clearly intend for the few people that still play to pay for 1.4. (since that is basicly what this "expansion" is).

The same happened to WAR, altough slightly worse, no real new content but EA was happy to sell a progression patch for PvP that didn't really add anything.

My take on it, they're rushing out whatever is left in development before putting the game in maintenance mode.
