    Bah, why read when you can rant about the greedy heartless game developer based on what someone's best friend's cousin said.

    Haha... Danita hits the nail on the head :D

    The dev posted just now while this topic and the one on official forum has been going on for a while. Unless customers complain or protest you think FC will just come forward on their own? because that is how it works in MMO business right?

    *rolls eyes*

    Your tounge in cheek comment would be more relevant if i made this topic after FC confirmed that slots can be bought in game too.

    Would be helpful if you could post a link verifying that info.

     

    The info is from forum posts on the closed beta forums. We are not supposed to copypaste and obviously I can't post a link that you can access.

    But as another closed beta tester I can confirm that this is what funcom has said.

    If they do change to F2P, they are going to keep the premium subscription just like they did with AO and AoC where premium subscribers gets access to the whole game and F2P players gets access to a part of the game. I really don't see the problem.

    I would not have a probelm with this either.  Is this fact or speculation though?  The point of my post was more around the dangers of preordering a lifetime sub before the game gets released. . .so many burns on this one.

    Wa min God! Se æx on min heafod is!

    There is no factual information at all about free to play, so what happens to subscriptions if they should do that is all speculation. It's however speculation that's founded on what they did in their other two MMORPGs that are btw. still around, so you can check out what subscribers get there.

    As long as you can get the slots in game it should be fine. They did say that certain builds will give you specific outfits and I'm sure people are goona want slots for those along side there custom builds.

    Yeah I am okay with that model.  I played AoC for awhile and like TSW.

    Indeed. When I read a single line post claiming something that I know is not true (based on the last time I checked the CB forums), then I simply ignore it. People make wild claims and statements on these boards as a matter of course.

     

    If Blackbrrd had bothered to add that the info had just been posted in the CB forums, that would have made all the difference, because I would have gone and checked if it was true.

    You don't need to use those builds. You unlock the outfits by acquiring all the abilities in a deck. Then you get them as a normal clothing item.

  • highflyinghighflying Member Posts: 22

    Deep breath everyone? Good?
    This is going to be something you can purchase in the game as well. With ingame cash.


    Yes, it was silly of us to have the cash shop show up before the ingame vendors with extra slots.
    Feedback heard, loud and clear! *salute*

     

    I haven't really been paying attention to cash shop threads as it has nothing to do with my part of the game.
    I actually saw a ranty post on MMORPG which led me back here to see what the fuss was about :P

     

    Devs are reading stuff on this forum as well :)

    Hahaha so many of you got upset over nothing, that will teach you to base these threads on beta information which is always in flux.

    Now, that would be breaking the NDA now wouldn't it, while this is something I heard from my third cousin on my mothers side who I know for a truthfull fellow. ;)

    Well the dev who posted it said that it was silly on their part to show slots in CS than making it avilable on in game vendor first. He also said that feedback was head and loud clear and he salute the community.

    If you don't get upset, they won't listen.

    Now that this is been proven has false can we remove this thread?  His little edit feature on the OP is tiny and misleading compared to everyone freaking out for no reason.  Remove this thread.

    Fact of the matter is, you jumped the gun.  If your post was timed better, say AFTER LAUNCH, then you would have solid ground to stand on.  Right now you don't, so suck it up, move along and stop getting pissy when people keep pointing out your errors.  I too doubt I'll use more than 5 builds, I just don't play my games that way.  Even in Rift I stick to the 5 I get and that's pushing it for me, mostly just use 3 tops.  1 pve group, 1 pvp, and 1 solo.

    How anything i said is false when this topic and the one on official forum has been going on for a while? it would be false if dev already made it clear that slots are avilable in game and i decided to go ona rant anyways.

    I was reflecting the mood of official forums and when i amde this topic there was no official response regarding this. Learn to read mate.

    Yes and clearly taking threads to another MMO site where the devs have less chance of seeing it, and spreading information based on something thats still a work in progress is the way to handle it.

    There is beta testers, and then theres people who dont get what beta is about, but hey, well done for wasting peoples time.

    I didn't jump the gun FC did,  dev admited it was silly to make slots avilable in CS before making it avilabe in game for testing. Who jumped the gun here? and i am merely repeating the topic on official forums...which by the wasn't posted by me.

    It is always easier to blame the players when you are out to play white knight isn't it?

    You think i don't know that most of the devs do not care for third party forums? does that mean sites like mmorpg.com is useless? the topic on official forum wasn't started by me, i was merely posting the new development. And if you are reading and posting in this topic blame yourself for wasting your time, i never forced you to read now did i? 

    This and the topic on official forums is also work in progress..means waiting for official response, or you thought my topic is trying to give impression that this recent addition to CS is permanent? where did i say that?

    No you did not, but people like you are the reason why betas should never remove their NDA, always jumping the gun, never having the patience to be an actual beta tester.

    But whatever, this wont lead anywhere, you had your 15 minutes of fame, hope you enjoyed em.
