metalgearyoda Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 1: What can you do with WZ passes? Just normals or can you do ranked? 2: What can you do with Operation passes? Just story mode or can you do hm / nmm? 3: What is "story" gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalgearyoda Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share Posted November 18, 2012 So no one knows? Does bioware not know? I sent them a tweet and they never got back to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just story mode or can you do hm / nmm? 3: What is "story" gear? WZ Pass lets you play unlimited normal warzones Op passes are just Story Mode Story Mode= Normal Mode It might seem silly, but give how artifact gear/ the gear unlock only lets you equip story mode gear.. "it could hold back the other raiders from getting kills in HM/NM." (Please note I dont agree with this mindset, but it seems to be the mindset of EA/Bio) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not finding a "ranked wz" pass or "hardmode operation" pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gindorf Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Honestly: A Subscription. EA left those options out intentionally so people would have a "reason" to sub. Edited November 18, 2012 by Gindorf typos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalgearyoda Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Honestly: A Subscription. EA left those options out intentionally so people would have a "reason" to sub. Wait. But EA said that the reason most people quit was because of the subscription. Why wouldn't they give the option to use the f2p model that they just implemented? edit: Why would they block me from giving them money via their f2p model?

Just because I use a different payment model I can't buy access to it? I thought this was suppose to be a hybrid model. Subscribers would get everything for 15 a month whereas f2p would have to buy access per week or w/e. But I can't buy access. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gindorf Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 At the risk of continuing to feed...... They need to have some things be "exclusive" content for subs, otherwise why stay subbed when I can just buy w/e I want to from CC. Again the issue with RWZ/HM/NM is as a F2P you are limited to what gear you can wear, which will result in holding back others from potential success within that activity. Plus some (not many but some (and not I)) like to measure their epeen with the whole "exclusive gear" vs a F2P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no reason to block people who prefer f2p from paying for content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mothear Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 If this is true I fnd it sad, and unreasonable, why, because as a F2P person I can buy the unlock to area X (or whatever it's called) which unlocks the HK-51 questline which I would not be able to complete because I need to access a HM FP. Unless buying that questline gives you access if you have the quest, can anyone shed light on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
