Collectors edition 90day sub watch

Hello all

First i want to say, and only my opinion, that i find the game very refreshing, a change from the many i've played. Def worth a try. Not taking away from the other good ones ive played IE. EQ2, SoR, etc. After figuring out my router was playing havoc on my Vanguard client, the game is good, even playable on a mid tier comp i have (settings on low)

I recently pre-ordered then bought the collectors edition.

On the box along with online sites like EB games it mentions a 90day sub free, what i didnt know was thats its for the vanguard station access features. Totally caught me off guard when i found out today. Even though i dont mind too much, because it is entertainment im paying for, i feel whoever markets the box, couldve used a clearer definition of that 90day sell. Im not sure if SOE stamped that box and i guess its too late to worry about it now. I write this hoping others dont buy this game for a 90day sub.

After reading the box again it stats:

 

"Includes a 90-day subscription to Vanguard: Saga of Heroes  Station Players TM !"

"station players merges the game world with the world wide web to give players incredible access to their characters, guilds and items"

    Very good to know, when I go to buy the game I will be sure to take this into consideration!  what aspects of the game do you like the most?  Oh, by the way, check your private messages too, thanks.

    I think it is funny to see someone ask that dumb ass question or mention that. . .

    To be utterly disrespectful to all people who thought that. . .what in gods name would make you think they would offer a Collector's Edition and give you what you would pay for otherwise. . .any moron can figure that they will not give you all of the goodies plus a 3 month subscription to the game for 90 to 100 dollars.

    And it said on the box Station Players. . .it said it on the websites Station Players.  .If it was the game it woulda said a 90 day ot Vanguard Saga of Heroes.

    I sure do love those Friendly Vanguard guilds, Kombat.

    I can see how it would be misunderstood.

    ouch struck a nerve there huh Jesus

    for those that ive disrespected my aplogies, my bad manners do get the best of me on game boards. I see i have a hard time to give respect to someone, thanks for pointing that out Jesus. Much thx

    but to reiterate a little more as i was saying earlier.

    when a person falls, he can not say " i didnt fall" but could say "hey there, watch out for that rock, it got me"

    I am VERY pissed about the Pre-Order discriptions, and how far off the CE ended up being from it. I got it for the 90 days Sub (yes, it did say only that) and the "Pet and/or Mount" that were both advertised. I'm returning my unopened CE and buying a regular Edition, as are 3 others I know... VERY disappointing...

    I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!

    In fact, forget the SWG!!!!

    When someone gives a stupid comment like Kombatjesus just did, I say it is time to totally ignore that individual. I thought your comment was time worthy and have seen several comments on just this subject. I think that giving a heads up to others is what this forum is really about, not bashing others for their concerns. I just wish that everyone had respect for others before they opened their mouths... or reply screens.

    I don't really see any reason not to say anything.  I am glad he gave people the heads up. . .but for most it is too darn late.  They are stuck with the CE, their boxes are opened and the aroma of pig leather has enveloped the room.  People don't read between the lines, it happens, for the people who are lucky to read his post because of this and the rest of the bumps you guys are gonna give I salute you, but for the most part it is too late and you should have read in between the lines if all you got the CE for was a subscription to Vanguard

    Actually alot of people (or that I've seen anyways) have made this mistake.

    People want to think there's a 90 day subscription because they're paying more, so when they see "3 month subscription" and they've never heard of "Station Players" they tend to finish the sentence themselves into "3 month subscription to vanguard".

    People just need to read a little more closely and carefully. Not a huge deal, and it's a semi-common mistake people are making.
