It also drives home the idea that this probably should not have been framed as the "subscriber appreciation" item. Considering what was going on at the time it was probably poor timing.

I think if this came 6 weeks ago it would have been more positively received.
This really about sums it up for me. They said they would have a sub appreciation gift and hyped it to us subs, and then gave us 500 cc. I mean, it was great of them to do that but I think if they just initially said "Subscribers will receive a gift of 500 Cartel Coins in appreciation for maintaining their subscriptions" that it would have been better received.

I think basically they hyped it up too much for what they were actually going to hand out.

Actually it was the community, who was hyping it up. Bioware merely stated, taht there would be a gift and they didn't even use the terms "awesome" or "to die for" this time (like for the life day stuff).

Thanks have a nice day.

I really could not agree more with a lot of what they have said in that episode, mainly from Laura's point of view. I have played since launch and overall this has been the greatest gaming experience of my life and I played some great games in their prime. But I can honestly say the Cartel Market is insulting to people who sub to this game. I was so happy when I heard that the new companion was going to require level 40 legacy. Finally something to reward the people who have invested real time into your game. But no, you greedy bastards decided that if you can get real money you don't want to cut off the flow of your gold streets. I'm done, that was the straw that broke the camels back.

P.S. - When a show that is about your game brings up another title in examples to improve (Guild Wars 2, a true F2P experience) you should get your act together.

Every regular poster is guilty of at least a dozen garbage posts that contribute nothing & are mean-spirited. It's funny to see them see-saw back and forth from day to day acting like they're paragons of virtue cleaning up the community.

Offering the stupid Ewok in the CM is a good move on their part. I'm guess the percentage of people in this game who have achieved Legacy 40 is rather small. A new companion is a lot of effort for not much (if any) return. Putting it on the CM only makes sense.

I have no problem with it being on the CM. I have a problem that the credit version has a legacy level requirement and the CM one does not. That is total crap. Either both of them have a level requirement or neither do. Favoring people who throw money at them is unacceptable.

And to say that their are few people who have that legacy level is only stating the fact that hardly any original players still play this game. I have had legacy level 50 for well over a year, and it was easy to get then with half the content that is available now.
