I wont buy stuff from the online store which I dont need to get 4 extra missions, why? In a nutshell because im not too bothered about it, if it was in the shop and I was just PAYING FOR THE ITEM I WANTED then it wouldnt be a problem but I wont go out of my way to get it which is the general feeling by a lot of people in this thread so why is it so hard to see? Are you ignorant or just.... ignorant.

What he said was take your gw.dat file, burn it to a cd or put it on a flash drive etc. and then you don't have to redownload the game if you need to reformat, just transfer the back up file onto your hard drive and it will update itself from there.

*Piss people off who already bought stuff for the pack ( Buying stuff for something you dont need to get something doesnt make sense to me)
*Give people who dont have access to it a chance to get it
*Make anet more money
Dont agree? I dont care because its right.

If I could have gotten the bonus mission pack physically from a shop (ie, Disc, case and a leaflet) for lets say 10 pounds (20 dollers) I would have done it, I would have bought EoTn from the in game shop however I am 15 years of age and don't have a credit card. I have used my mothers one so much she gets pissed when I use it so now what? I miss out on stuff becuase of my age? hmmm, yea, I would like to see it avalible alone.

Seriously i dont see why people are so against the idea of Anet selling the BMP at a later date through their in game store. Allowing more people to experience the BMP so they can all complain about it in a thread hours later sounds like a fun idea.
I mean lets be honest. Only a few of us will enjoy the BMP - the rest will tell everyone how they could of done a better job.

Also, I don't see how it's any less organized to keep a CD labeled GW.dat with your games. Now instead of keeping track of 3-4 cds, you only have to keep track of 1. Obviously you're more interested in the packaging than the cd itself, so the utility you got from buying the box should more than compensate missing out on the BMP. There's no use trying to complain about it now.
EDIT: Don't think I'm against Anet selling the BMP in the on-line store for $30ish because I honestly don't care. Most people still won't buy it because it's still through the on-line store, so I leave it entirely up to Anet to decide what's in their best interest. You all did make your bed, so I still can't feel badly for you though. :\

If you dont care, why post in this thread? Theres no reason to do that, also life isnt always fair which is another obvious point but this would do three things: *Piss people off who already bought stuff for the pack ( Buying stuff for something you dont need to get something doesnt make sense to me) *Give people who dont have access to it a chance to get it *Make anet more money Dont agree? I dont care because its right. |
if it comes to shops fine, but then should cost more then recent price the rest of us paid..but then you whiners would complain its not fair for that too..

Being 12 and not being able to buy something because of a lack of credit card sucks. But you can't always get what you want or have things your way, the world is not under any obligation, moral or otherwise, to be fair to you or anyone in particular. You guys might as well learn your lesson now, before you set yourselves up for even more disappointment down the line in this little rollercoaster we call life.

If they flip-flop and offer it in the in-game store, they'll screw over anyone who used the in-game store, which is not what they want to do, obviously. Like the in-game store need anymore bad press.
If you couldn't access the in-game store to buy GW:EN or character slots to qualify for the BMP because you couldn't meet the payment methods, how is selling the BMP in the in-game store going to help you?

can we please close this thread already, your request ain't going to happen. Anet made that perfectly clear.
And no more excuse as to why you failed to make the purchase, if you had no means, what you could not ask a friend or family member?
If you have no friends or family, then I guess your SOL.

Bonus = 1.something extra or additional given freely.
2. something free, as an extra dividend, given by a corporation to a purchaser of its securities

If they were smart, they'd offer it up for late comers/misser-outers(as a polite gesture), but with a nice little bit-o-interest pinned on. call it a 'late fee' if you will.
I bet the whining would really start then lulz.

The bonus pack was a way to entice people to use the online store, since many would prefer to have a box.
The BMP is the box for GW:EN, sorta.

It was a promotion, promotion is over there will be no ingame store sales of this for at least a year. Only fair to those that paid the $30 for it.

This guy has no idea about priorities in his life and tries to act all old and wise with "I am poor and I only make this much, thus, I know the hardship of life". He doesn't listen and obviously doesn't own spell check. This issue has been beaten to death in a large number of threads. Just ignore the guy and he will slowly go away. More replying just gives him more reason to reply, which is what we DON'T want.

lol, all these people who didnt sign because they think they would be screwed, well not really u purchased game content and got given a FREE item in return, theres those who Purchased in store, arenbt they getting screwed it wasnt available in store?(i believe so),
and for the R-Tard who said its called bonus mission pack for a reason, id like to clarify that for you!
Bonus Mission Pack=Bonus Mission to an Already Playable game(not that hard to under stand)
and for the mentality of the people who said they would of liked the box for gwen, here is a taste of ur own medicine, u had the chance to purchase other items on the GW online store not just gwen, so u could have gone to the store and purchased GWEN seperate, simple as that!!(no differance what so ever)
Well if you put glasses on you would read in my post, everytime i tried to purchase online, i got a stupid error code, and A-Net never fixed no matter how many times i reported it to there online help service
Agreed they offered it as freeby aslong as u purchased it....Wich is why they should SELL it seperate.

What I was thinking was allow others to buy it for 10-20$ or what ever, but make it some time febuary/march or what ever, so that they still have access to it, but those that paid to get it now will have it for a while.

If you're really willing to shell out $20 for this thing, anet might just do it. I doubt many would though.

I don't get what's up with the bashing of not selling the BMP. Who really gives if they do sell the BMP? What's it to those who got it through the promotion, you got it for FREE already so don't whine.
You're also telling someone that ANet shouldn't sell the BMP because it's their fault for:
- Not having a credit card,
- Being a 12 year old.
And most probably you'll all come out 1 minute after the BMP is released bitching about how crap it is like you all did to GW:EN.
