Etheric Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Why is bioware treating us this badly? Am i to take this question seriously ? I going to assume it is and answer it seriously--- Becouse we're OLD money, we've given it to them, its already in their pockets. Their all about NEW money now. Its why we can't buy the new planet with Cartel coins. I'm currently sitting on 3000+ Cartel coins if i bought the planet with say 2000 of them its not new income for them.

In addition, they don't expect to lose subs over the CE vendor never being updated. However, it is all a part of a much larger picture that involves many /fails on their part. If it continues to build and grow, then I don't know. People just might get fed up enough to quit the game. Ah, good old fashioned American greed.

But right now it feels they are just greedy mother****ers that would sell their own mothers on the cartel market if they would get enough money from it.

Alec_Fortescue Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) some jokes about the ce vendor from bioware staff which kinda went true Spectator: "... Collector's Edition. What sort of items can we expect to see...?" Mr. Ohlen: "Well, there are quite very exciting items we have yet to determine." Spectator "... Will they be cosmetic items...?" Mr. Ohlen " They will be more cosmetic than they would be... We are planning to have... They will be weapons and armor but we are not going to be giving you an advantage in power levels so... when you go to the store you'll be able to buy items that will up your power but they will realy be cosmetic in terms of... You can get a similar power item which looks different by playing the game normally. " *Spectator seems to ask about currencies used to buy new items on the vendor* Ohlen: " Credits. We already got your money when you paid for the collector's edition." So far weapon and armor went into CM... We have good reasons to suspect that these were meant to go for CE vendor. BIOWARE. Address this. Honestly. Edited January 7, 2013 by Alec_Fortescue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmymillertime Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Bioware stated they were not going to add anything to the ce vendor, class action lawsuit time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amodin Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) BW lied, they took money than didn't deliver the promised product. I could see a lawsuit form that.. Highly doubt this - not the lying part, the lawsuit. You paid for the contents of the CE package and your monthly fee goes to paying for access to the game servers. Is it a disappointment? Yes. Will they update the vendors' contents? Probably not, they are very lazy. Is it a reasonable lawsuit? Definitely not. I think you need to perhaps read the Terms for the CE, it is nothing different than the regular box product, you just got more items in the box than just a CD. If you got something other than that, then let me know, because then I was shorted whatever it is that you think you were entitled to.

tpryan Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 smart thing for BW to do is move "old" cartel items over to the vendor...so next week when they give us a "new" pack we also get some of the stuff from the first pack in the CE vendor (BoE hopefully) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do i need to keep copy pasting the advertising for CE vendor over and over? Regular updates where what we've paid for. We are right to feel entitled to what we've purchased and we're denied to receive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes please, something other than what Ohlen posted in a video, because Bioware has already proven that his words are not the words of Bioware by charging us for Makeb. We already know that the developer that posted in this thread almost a year ago now has told us 'yes' yet we all know that is a lie as well. Something concrete would be appreciated. Showing us something you want to wear that is located in a CGI video is not false advertisement, nor is concept art.

At launch the Collector’s Edition Store will be available to those who have the Collector’s Edition of The Old Republic, and will feature items found nowhere else in the game! The Collector’s Edition will be stocked with exclusive social items for yourself, and unique appearances for your companion. The store will also have regular updates to give players incentive to keep coming back. It shows that they told us that we would get regular updates to the CE vendor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drudenfusz Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Eh...where? Nowhere, s/he is lying. BioWare never said they won't do anything further for the CE store. Every time they say something about it, they tell us we will get more, but who knows how long we have to wait, or if that is true that we really get one day more. Anyway, BioWare never said they are done with the CE store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mannfred Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I would like the see the CE Vendor get some new items, perhaps items from previous events. Also the VIP vendor is basiclly a joke with its one item, show it some love as well. Would like to see the Pre-Order Crystals get a overhaul with some mid level ones perhaps, or change them over to be like the cartel ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth-Rammstein Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Little reminder: http://www.swtor.com/info/news/news-article/20111021 - surprised it's not taken down yet. I was actually a little sad reading that bit about regular updates....I think the only thing they've added since launch was that tauntaun pet which was just a reskin of the one they gave everybody anyways.

Ignicity Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) At the same time, their silence in this thread speaks volumes. The silence in this thread is nowhere near as deafening as the silence heard in the APAC thread. Seriously, EAware has the Oceanic community on perma-ignore. We, as CE customers will get this issue fixed long before they do anything to address the APAC concerns. gg EAware Edited January 10, 2013 by Ignicity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swanea Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 They have your money and have had it for over a year. They aren't going to add anything new. They COULD add saber crystals later (like in 6 months when current ones are no longer wanted/used). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
