Inzuher Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Well I guess that is pretty cool, but I would rather have something useful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elminster_cs Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Nice!! Very nice! But give us the fireworks on the 20th! Or we will use it earlier!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graydon Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Nice little gift. Meager little gift. It's a shame, it seems anything remotely cool or worthwhile stuff is going to be Cartel Shop material and the free gratitude rewards are going to be garbage. Yeah I know, I just riled up the defense force. Edited December 3, 2012 by Graydon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amnie Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I want more normal sparkles, but big sparkles are never wrong. I hope we'll be able to buy some extra with credits somewhere, because otherwise I will be hording mine until next year's celebrations because they are too precious. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathias_Varr Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Patch-note worthy? Yes.Announcement worthy? No, unless thrown in with some larger announcement. However, it isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LonHawk Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 This is sweet! I can't wait to get in a raid and destroy peoples frame rates with my pet out, glowing eyes, sparkle powder, party jawa, and now having some of these babys to fire off too! Muwahaha. But seriously, this is a kool little gift. My question though is... is it 25 full stacks? As in 25 stacks of 99 (which would be AWESOME) or a stack of just 25.? And is it per toon or per account?

Norke Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I don't mean to sound ungrateful, I really don't, but I honestly would have much rather gotten nothing at all over fireworks. To me personally, fireworks have always been the most useless things in MMOs. I'd honestly just like a heartfelt letter from Bioware thanking us for playing their game, they can keep the fireworks.

Norke Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 You did. I know, I was doing that little trick where I was trying to sound ungrateful but save face by saying I didn't mean to. Seriously though, all I want is a nice PR letter from Bioware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anysao Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Ooh, picture of celebrating the anniversary... I know exactly what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urael Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I fail to see what to "celebrate". Maybe Quickest MMORPG to Freemium in history? Maybe Most Disappointing PvP in any MMORPG? Maybe Most Trivial Game to Level-up in the history of MMORPGs? Most Hyped MMORPG in history with the biggest let down factor? The list goes on ...

Quraswren Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Well I guess that is pretty cool, but I would rather have something useful... Agreed. Interesting, short lived but pretty cool. However, I think a little more thought should have been put into it. More along the lines that if you had been here for 11 or 12 months the fireworks package was unlimited (with a 1 min cool down) and not just 25 uses. Something a little more permanent to celebrate with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellgar Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Cool gift, just wish for people that pay a monthly subscription gotten something cool to keep and brag to the free players, just saying :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ok go sit in the corner and someone will bring you some nice warm milk. Considering you are still subbed to the game you must enjoy it and would welcome the fireworks to show said joy.

Lionflash Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I wonder how graphically intensive each rocket is... How far away can other players see it? It would be cool for a player run event to have maybe 100 players gather near the hills of Drumond Kaas and have 10-15 doods launch their fireworks and create a show from the distance. ...not very Sithy tho..
