fungihoujo Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 by that logic your CE items are also useless(aside from the bike). So they should just get rid of them Technically the CE items are useless... but even so, they do actually do things- mostly animation style things like shoot a flare. If the CE items had no use whatsoever beyond sitting in your bag- sure. Frankly, I don't think anyone cared for anything other than the mount and non combat pet... The medal, after giving the title, would have actually zero use- not even an animation or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fungihoujo Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 By your logic, i should be mad that bike item no longer exists in my inventory cause i cashed it in already. ^^ this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KipMalice Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 That sounds kinda awesome when you think about it... except it isn't like that- you can use a light saber and a helmet both, you can use a title... you can't use a medal in this game. Who cares if you can use a medal? How did we know it wasn't going to be a relic or something? Some sort of item that unlocked another vendor for people. Why do you insist on focusing on something that doesn't matter. Do you just want to argue? The verbiage they used was misleading. Using AND infers two items, regardless of usefulness. In the end you have 1 item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bovronius Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 It's not really shady considering they display the item itself showing you it's a on use item to give the title.. As a completionist, I'm glad it doesn't stick in my inventory,... that would be one more spot in a limited amount of spots I could fill.. I'd have to delete a companion customization that I'm never going to use or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use a badge. It's not a stretch to think you can also use a medal. I'm sure many people thought this was just another social item like the badge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fungihoujo Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Okay, you get a diamond and a motorcycle with your mortgage payment. But to get the motorcycle you have to give me that diamond. Hey, if you value an in game- unusuable medal at the same level as a diamond- I'll get you all the medals you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KipMalice Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Seriously? You're complaining about a few pixles that disappear from your fictional inventory and is replace by a bunch of text over your characters head? No, you obviously don't understand. I am talking about the verbiage they used inferring two items. Good lord are all people this dense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youwillburn Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 By your logic, i should be mad that bike item no longer exists in my inventory cause i cashed it in already.

DirtyDozen Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I got the medal - check I used the medal - check I got the title - check Where's the problem? You wanted another item rotting in your inventory? Or did you think it was supposed to go around your neck? There's no slot for medals. I don't feel scammed or ripped off at all. I got everything they promised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I know it was an unusable item before I /used it to claim my title? Nope, I was under the impression that I was receiving two completely different items.

SlickDevlan Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 No, you obviously don't understand. I am talking about the verbiage they used inferring two items. Good lord are all people this dense? Are you really that pissed that you "use" the medal that you can't show anyone except by displaying the title "using" it gets you? All the medal will do if it wasn't a "use" item would be to "use" storage space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itekazzawrrlic Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 And by your logic everyone in the game must also have cashed theirs in and felt no different about it. If they didn't cash it in, then what is your point? It's still there for you to look at. But it's as useful as the medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avrose Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 See people read announcements like that and assume they are getting more then they are without reading it. Maybe they could have worded it better sure but this is a case of doesn't matter. Self set expectations people, self set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you meant cash as sold it. My bad. The point it, they weren't promised a 2 things. They were promised 1, a mount and that what they got. The problem right now is if they said, you get a miniature hover craft and a mount, and it turns out they're the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because a useless medal isn't something that matters nearly as much as you're making it out to. http://www.swtor.com/info/founders The info even shows you exactly what the medal looks like, look at what the use is. That's how I knew it wasn't going to be a relic or something. You're saying they didn't tell you what it does... then say 'well it could have done this' even though there was zero indication it would- and that's reason to get angry?
