Are you deliberately slow?

I don't see a downside to waiting to see what I'm paying for, so yeah. I'd take the gamble if the pre-order bonus was really cool, but it ain't.

Unsubscribed due to no new Operations. I am happy that there will be a renewed focus on story, I love story, its why I picked this MMO. But I picked an MMO, not an episodic single player RPG that I have to pay a subscription to receive the episodes.

I'm more aggravated about the lack of an expected release date than about the lack of content information. I still preordered, though.

I can't believe people are still whining about this... It isn't like you aren't going to buy it, so suck it up and pay for it now. If you are still playing the game you will pay the 10 bucks for the expansion if you are a sub regardless of how little it adds to the game just because it raises the level cap and adds a new area. If that is all that this expansion offers you'll still pay for it because anyone still subscribed to the game won't want to be left behind to rot at level 50 while everyone else is 5 levels higher and running around on Makeb. If you are thinking about un-subbing then by all means don't pre-order. The only thing you get with pre-order is 5 days early access and if you are already thinking about unsubscribing then those 5 days won't matter one way or the other. Regardless, stop whining about something that isn't going to change. You'll get information when it's available and not a moment sooner and you really only have about 7 hours to make a decision on it anyway.

We have three days left to meet the deadline and the only things we know about what we are purchasing is that it has 5 more levels and a new planet. I believe there will be more to it than that, hopefully new Ops, FPs, and WZs, but for all we know there won't be. How can you expect us to fork out money on such an unknown quantity? My suggestion is to make up your mind based on what we already know, not what we hope is going to be in it. For me, ten dollars is nothing for a planet and five more levels. Anything else will be gravy. Now if they were charging $40-60 dollars like WOW does for one of their expansions then I would expect way more.

I doubt this "expansion" is going to magically be full of grade A content that changes everything. That combined with the non existent release date I'll gladly hold on to the buying potential of my own money and not give BW an interest free loan. Also after the "expansion" launches there is a 50/50 chance upon my first login Kaidan will appear out of nowhere and ask if I'd like to go have a toss in the hay because not letting him die is a huge turn on for him.

Well, as a comparison data point, I preordered SW:ToR when all I knew was it was "a star wars mmo". And this new content is much cheaper, and seems to me like "a new planet (big as DK/Coruscant at least), new talents/abilities, 5 more levels" is more for me to go on, so I had no problem spending the 9.99 now. And I imagine they will either extend the early access offers or bring them back prior to launch, for what it's worth.

BioWare does not force anybody to pre-order. Those who are not comfortable with it, can wait until expansion will be live to get it. I got enough information to pre-order. I paid more for little expansion packs in EQ2 - which were no more then couple new quests /shrug. Pre-order is voluntary. Edit. If 5 days headstart is so important to you guys you have no other choice then pre-order... but it's not a reason to complain imo.

No, we're not supposed to pre-order with this little info. We're supposed to wait until it's released, watch the content released, then decide whether or not to buy it. And to all the people against this thread, you guys are being illogical. First of all "Then don't complain when the price is raised for people who didn't pre-order." Pre-ordering gives you 5 days early access! Paying more, and not getting the early access? Most illogical thing I've ever heard on these forums. And the other thing "I bought lunch for $? and I thought it was worth it." This is about more info, and I'm sure you didn't just pay for a mystery meal. Wow, some people just need to learn logic.
