Not to the one who are willing to pay you more money, it is not fair and not logic besides money logic.
The Beta-Test is still going on.

I think it's a nice gesture.

Thanks, Bioware

As the vast majority of players already know, the game isn't bad at all. In fact, it's brilliant!

For those of us who are enjoying the game, many happy returns for SWTOR!

So's this according to people in this thread

But I see your point, some people could believe that it's a desperate attempt trying to hide what it is by offering something that won't really encourage anyone to subscribe for another month...


Yeah, don't think "don't want to be obvious" is a very convincing argument that this is a desperate attempt

The "founder's medal" is simply the item you use that grants the title to your account (and all alts).

You don't get "A medal and a title!" - that's just PR spin - you get a title. That's it.

I know it's nitpicking slightly... but people were already laughing at how minor/inconsequential a medal and a title were - it's just worth pointing out that it is, in fact, not even that much.

This whole "founder" idea smacks of that same level of denial and arrogance.
Seriously?

Did you just seriously equate a buggy game patch in a video game to the slaughter of real people?

Talk about extreme...jeez.


The patch screwed up Illum and they are on it less than a day later trying to fix it...yeah...that really screams genocide, murder, ruthless violence and dictatorship to me...
Stop exploding you cowards!

Really a medal?? Doesn't do a thing for me.

Even 7 years ago Matrix on Line had cool gear for beta players more vanity than anything but still looked good. Medal is just going to take up another slot w/o any worthwhile use I think.

Personally I give it a thumbs down - and would rather some places get fixed.
As for the title there are way better ones you get for doing more than just pay. I still like the Title the Gree bestow.
