Talahar Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Well, in the US the work day has barely begun, so you probably need to be patient for a couple more hours... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Post EricMusco Posted November 19, 2013 Dev Post Share Posted November 19, 2013 The Tauntaun you are looking for will be going live in a little over an hour, around 11AM CST. Thanks! -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pscyon Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Anyone bought it yet? I'm curious what the CC cost is for account unlock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepulhead Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Anyone bought it yet? I'm curious what the CC cost is for account unlock. 1000 cc, looks like i will have to wait until the monthlu grant to add it to my account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andryah Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 1000 cc, looks like i will have to wait until the monthlu grant to add it to my account That was actually predictable. For direct buy items off the CM, the collections unlock appear to have settled in to = CM_cost/3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DregorThule Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Since we're talking about the store, do they usually do a big sale off the packs heading into embargo like there was with this past one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottoattack Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 3K CC. Wow.. Man CC prices are becoming ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talahar Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 As a subscriber, I'm sorry... I don't pay 6 months worth of cartel coin stipend for a mount that's merely a reskin of a mount I can earn by ingame means. The one tauntaun I have so far took my just a couple of hours during low population night time, with an entry fee of less than 50k credits. It could have been even faster if I tried during prime time.... Oh well, I'm sure there are people that just want/need/can't live without this cartel market mount. Hope they get their money's worth. Hey Bioware, any plans of introducing more ways to get animal mounts like the way you'd get Taun Tauns on Hoth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that does not mean that offering a CC path after the fact as an optional path for players is in any way a bad thing. In fact, by making it very expensive.. they avoid most of the QQ that would come from players who went out and earned their Tauntauns the old fashioned way in game. Think about that... because there is truth here. Imagine if they made it 500 CC and 120 to unlock. Oh the rage in the forums would be epic in size.

This is only true if this will be the only case of mount so pricey. What would be the reasoning behind price that high if mount couldn't be farmed ingame? I hope you are right and we won't see prices this high for CM exclusive items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callaron Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Since we're talking about the store, do they usually do a big sale off the packs heading into embargo like there was with this past one? They seem to do it often enough. Both the Vice Commandant and the one phased out right before it had a huge discount on their way out. And I suspect the next few will have it as well, since they specifically posted dates of when they're getting phased out. Works rather well with the one time 50% subscriber discount for Cartel Coins.

ZETA_SCORPII Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'm glad they are putting certain items like this in the CM, its a good balance imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
