BenjaminminU Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 A republic officer uniform and a pet floating ball? Doesn't really give much, although imperials get the imperial trooper uniform which does look cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reztastic Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 not worth spending $150 for sure. It's like they intentionally made it as bare bones as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrkab Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 I expected a unique color crystal, or a variety of unique armor, something neat. They said it wouldn't be powerful, it wouldn't be something better that what you can get elsewhere. But this is... nothing. There's so little here what is the point of the vendor?

Zeila Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Definitely disappointed myself. The box and physical items are pretty awesome but the CE Vendor is kind of a ripoff at the moment. I know they stated that more will be added to it so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bleating of the trollz on these forums led to a nerf. Now the ones who paid are stuck with crap. Just like taxes, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnarchoSaint Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 No pay to win. Learn to play the game like everyone else. I'm glad Bioware made the VIP store like this. This is a subscription game... Not a pay to win game like everyone who bought the CE wants it to be. /thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyTemplar Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Exactly. It's a slap in the face. I give you $150 and you give me this? And a soundtrack, map, free physical authentication fob, 8x6 Darth Malgus Statue, Steel DVD case. And the CE store WILL be updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcat Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Wow... That is... crap. Just like the "uber leet" gear in those stores that look stupid. Glad I saved the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no pay to win pay to look special....there is a difference.... remember you opinion doesnt reflect facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrkab Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 Well, I'm not going to throw a tantrum over it, but it is disappointing. For 6 months Bioware has been talking about the CE and the "VIP" club. They kept talking about it being exclusive and having some unique items. Nothing overpowering, nothing stronger than what you can get elsewhere, but a vendor with some cool stuff. Now they deliver a "VIP" lounge that anyone can get access to with a vendor that has one lousy item for 1.5 million credits. For the CE they deliver a vendor with what amounts to a single costume and a pet? Seriously? If this is what they're sticking with they should have just done away with the vendor and put the costume and pet in the list of CE items they advertised.

translucentwolf Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 You paid for the statue, the music, the journal, etc. You didn't pay for a bunch of 'I Win' items. If you thought you were buying an advantage, you were wrong. And take your poor attitude with you as you leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadMac Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Can you confirm this or is this just random speculation? Watching the endless threads of teeth gnashing by half of the little have-nots about how they are comfortable with just vanity items in the store for the CE owners, and the other half wanting the store via MT after a few months, I have come to this conclusion. You have 3 DEVs on video refering to this 'store' as a VIP area, like a lounge. This led to people's VIP Lounge tags. The ensuing uproar from the have-nots led to SR commenting that people on the forums 'better knock it off' about the VIP Lounge thing. Now the VIP Lounge is for DDE/CE and wristbands, we have a single merchant in that lounge, and crap inventory. You tell me the negativity from these little darlings of rage on the forums did not contribute? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading must be hard, we were just expecting more cosmetic items then just a few skins 1 costume and a mouse droid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you thought you were buying an advantage, you were wrong. And take your poor attitude with you as you leave. I paid for what the hell I valued at $150. And quite frankly none of it was the crap in the box. Who are you to tell me what I considered the true value for ordering this product? I paid for the digital items, and the game. Little geniuses like you mewling on the forums have screwed us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
