chuixupu Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Ah yes the herd instinct... corporations love it. Oh no! That means....nothing. You're just the beast that follows further behind. And usually those are the ones that get eaten. You can have fun feeling like a special snowflake, I'll have fun playing a video game with my friends. If I could think of any logical reason not to other than being a hipster, then I wouldn't buy it. Edited January 10, 2013 by chuixupu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mothear Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Haven't pre-ordered and won't until I know what impact the extra 5 levels has on the game. If I'm happy I'll then order, if not I'll go preferred when it is released. I believe that 60-70% is reasonable, but if any F2P people have pre-ordered I would be surprised.

TprSkippy Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'm going to wait until December before I buy it..... When I get back from Afghanistan . Then I'll definitely be buying it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackavaar Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I pre-ordered.. and I don't even have a lvl 50 toon, yet... I think about 70% of subscribers pre-ordered... my question is.. when does it come out? Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damask_Rose Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I didn't pre-order because I forgot Since I don't really do end-game stuff, 5 levels of planet quests on my dusty lvl 50s is worth the $10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annabethchase Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 99% or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etheric Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Have no clue as to the % that pre-ordered. If the numbers are as high as some here seem to suggest maybe Hickman would like to post the percentage and show all the nay sayers the light . Really if it did that well wouldn't that be the time to brag the game up a bit ? I did not pre-order, i did that once already with the initial realese and after a year of broken promises, ( end of summers long past, where o' where are paid transfers ) bugs from beta ignored, alowing servers to die last spring to help justify the F2P shift. This time i'm playing the "wait and see game " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoobie Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 So, we who already pre-ordered are stupid? Okay, get this. Here's how I reasoned it out. It's a digital expansion that will include at the very least a new world, 5 more levels, some new FPs/OPs and a new PvP warzone. Because there is a new planet that means there will also likely be a set of new Heroics. Because there are new Heroics, FPs/Ops there will also likely be new gear. New Gear, New Heroics, New FPs/OPs, New Warzone and 5 additional levels worth of content. IMO, all of that is well worth the $9.99 price tag. If there are any other goodies that will be icing on the cake. Now who are the intelligent ones? Can you provide the link where they said that FP's, OP's, & Warzones are going to be included in the expansion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuixupu Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'm pretty sure the only reason they put it up for pre-order early was to pad their numbers for the final quarterly report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewFromPhilly Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I did, but only because I don't want to be going up against 55 players in pvp on my 50s for 5 days. Honestly I don't care about the quests much. That's gotten old IMO...my latest toon I skipped as much as I could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoSickMinded Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Honestly I don't care about the quests much. That's gotten old IMO...my latest toon I skipped as much as I could. How'd you manage that? I'm barely able to keep on my class leveling course (right level at right planet) by doing nearly every mission i can find..

LUCASCASADEIS Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 80% because all my guild has pre-ordered and the people who were crying in the forums do not even represent 10% of the players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzina Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) I pre-ordered, but I cancelled my 6-month subscription the same day. My feelings are mixed. Edited January 10, 2013 by Suzina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calitri Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Ignorant? Nah, I just don't care about $10 that much. I pay more when I get lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinapus Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'm a subscriber, but I haven't pre-ordered the expansion. Mainly because I don't have any characters anywhere near lvl 50 so I won't need it until then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anosa Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I would imagine the subscriber number is higher something like 60%-70% while the f2p group is much lower around 15%-25% they will wait and see what the reviews say most likely. same thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaz Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'm a subscriber, but I didn't pre-order and currently have no intentions of buying it at all. I quit the game a few months back because I had maxed my Sorc & BH, and I really wasn't interested in doing all the planets ALL OVER AGAIN. So, time to distance myself. I played other things, had a great time, then started thinking about the low level Agent I had and how much I really wanted to check out her story. Playing her now and I'm loving it, but what I love about this game is the personal character story and the companion interactions. Makeb doesn't seem likely to hold anything that'll interest me, as they've said there won't be any character story in it, just planetary story. As for the rest? I don't care about levels (they're just something I have to get to progress story), don't care about warzones (have absolutely zero interest in this game's PvP), don't care about gear (as 99% of the gear in this game is atrociously ugly to me), don't care about operations (as all of my friends and my guild quit before even I did, and so I'm solo in this game). That puts me in the 'currently subscribing but did not pre-order' group. With all the above said, I don't think anyone is stupid for pre-ordering or not pre-ordering. It's all down to individual preferences. Heck, if I could have purchased the DLC with all the Cartel Coins I have stored up (because I foolishly never canceled the game when I quit over 6 months ago), I probably WOULD have pre-ordered, as there's nothing in the store that interests me.

AzuthTheHighOne Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'm a subscriber, but I haven't pre-ordered the expansion. Mainly because I don't have any characters anywhere near lvl 50 so I won't need it until then. I don't have any characters close either, but I choose to pre-ordered anyway, just in case I make it by the time it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kahotep Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Well after seeing the number of people queue up to get their hands early on iphone, I say your faith in human is somewhat miss the mark. What knocks my faith in humanity is seeing people publicly expressing negative feelings about an inanimate object because they think it makes them look cool. I coughed up the £5.99 for the expansion for reason other than I was amazed how cheap it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaronV Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) subscriber, didnt pre-order, have no intention of buying it at all at this point in time. (may change after it launches, who knows) Im playing the wait and see game. But for now I have no intention of pre-ordering or buying for several reasons: 1) Dont like the direction this game is going 2) Getting bored of SWTOR (something I never thought possible 3 months ago) 3) Am insulted that I am expected to pay $9.99 for stuff I was originally supposed to be getting free. All the more so considering they gave the whole game away for free whereas I paid $60 + shipping to a red zone. 4) Lack of info on the final product, and absolutely no benefit to pre-ordering. 5 day EGA is meaningless nonsense considering by EAware's track record it will be totally broken and full of bugs at launch anyway. 4) Dont want to send a message of support to EAcrap that this kind of money grabbing is acceptable. (i am somewhat resolved to never pay for another game with an EA logo on it, but im still very reluctant to unsub because I still want to support this game) Oh and I still havent finished all 8 class quests despite being here since EGA. In fact only my main char has completed the class quest. Edited January 10, 2013 by BaronV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignicity Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 On a side note, I can't wait till Early Access starts and all the crying and whining from Biodrones who pre-ordered, expecting to get a full 5 days early, but realise because they weren't the first to pre-order; they only get 2 days Early access. Launch 2011 all over again is going to be epic lolz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantazm Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I've not ordered it. I'll probably buy it when it comes out, but I'm really not bothered about 5 days of early access and I'd like some more information first. Had there been new class stories, I'd have been all over it. and there's no such thing as a "pre-order" either. I hate that term. You've either put in an order to buy something or you haven't.
