Solar Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) In large capitalist societies people are raised to believe money grants entitlement. That doesn't just happen in such societies. People can have entitlement mentality regardless. Besides, there are probably lots of CE owners busy with RL things and will play when they get to it; like me.

hooskyarf Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 as far as i know you payed the same a mount for the game like anyone. the rest of that money was spend on little pixel droids and a statue of a sith and whatnot. just cause you get the CE doesnt mean you get more rights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yachera Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 In large capitalist societies people are raised to believe money grants entitlement. And in large socialist societies people are raised to believe that being able to breath grants entitlement, lol I'm just playing I came from a family that lived off $10k a year, sometimes didn't have water, heat, or electricity I've experienced loss and don't feel entitled. In my big capitalist society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bboudreaux Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Will I be able to play after launch? I have to wait for my physical copy to arrive, so forgive me for wanting the extra day. Providing that I can't play until my game is delivered. sorry to inform you once the 20th arrives you wont be able to log in until you activate your account with a game code of some sort .. until you get your physical copy that just won't happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solar Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Usually businesses favor clients that give them more money, ie "earlier" access. I just wanted to know the opinions of other CE buyers. Although I do love the hate from the people who couldn't/didn't want to afford the CE, hating on me just cause I have it:D CE owners purchased real life tangible trinkets and access to CE ingame store. Nothing more. Asking for anything in excess of what you paid for is basically unreasonable imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dation Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 CE owners purchased real life tangible trinkets and access to CE ingame store. Nothing more. Asking for anything in excess of what you paid for is basically unreasonable imho. Do you think Bioware's actual cost is anything close to what people paid? Most of the items provided are trivial. Plenty of businesses offer a rewards based program for their frequent (read: people who spend more) customers. Just saying. I think most people are completely missing the point. I pre-ordered the CE and didn't expect to get different treatment or priority for the early game access. However, what I did expect was to not having to wait to have the physical box (for the code) to access the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill_Kayt Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 You are wrong How are they wrong? There is no Grace Period. If you don't activate your account with a game key you wont have access on and after the 20th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganiccus Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 First day is the 20th, you're good. The people playing the game now seem to be proving you wrong. Just because the cosmetic, game-in-stores release date is the 20th, don't think this isn't the release date. It is. If you can read, on the launcher itself, it says "LAUNCHING" the game. Thanks for playing, skip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xatheria Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I bought ce and got in on first day why because I bought it within 5 mins of it coming out it is done by order that you preordered they said it would be why is this so hard to understand its better then a random draw as it actually rewards those who have been waiting for the game forever as they preordered on the first or 2nd day.

Failheals Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I canceled my CE and bought the digital version because of this. That's the sound of a hundie vaporizing. realistically paying 150 for the CE is silly..you get a bunch of toys for the extra dough and the only in game item that matters from the CE is the vendor probably...so no real point in buying it unless you're an actual collector anyways.

lasmith Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Let me re-phrase that, first day the game is accessed by people that pre-ordered:cool: ... who were promised they would be able to play up to five days prior to the official launch... which period will start the day after tomorrow.

I'm not raging, just alittle put off Poor baby. Last time I checked, you are not a VIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
