Hi, i only think its fair if people whos acc has unlock all campaign and expansion since not ALL people have access to credit card for online use(like myself). I think for all the loyal players who owns all GW games deserve this bonus because for the money we spent on it this is by far more then spending 29USD online.

My god, people just don't get it... The missions were as a PROMOTION for the online store, not as a gift for dedicated players. They had a specific purpose, which they achieved. If you couldn't be bothered taking advantage of said promotion, tough titties. If you don't have a credit card that's very unfortunate for you, and i do feel your pain, but seriously, if a shop runs a promotion for cash only on a certain day, and on that day you happened not to have any cash on you you wouldn't come back crying the next day asking for the promotion to be repeated because you once bought something else from them....

anyway, this post has been posted a million times from other people and i'm so sick of hearing the same shit.

firstly i dont think the BMP was created to gain any profit from, it was just an reward so i dont c y expecting a free ticket from watchin movies would make sense since they involve a cost.

secondly as i mention the bmp was intended as a free of cost bonus for purchasing online therefore anet has ZERO lost at all but alot to gain if rewarded for players who purchased all gw products.

Im not sayin anet has done thing wrong but i would just like to say that NOT all people are available to internet purchasing and theres alot of players out there which are Loyal to this game and are not recieving any sort of rewards or bonus like the BMP. I find this very saddening as to long i supported this game and yet at last anet has forgetten about us.



@pamelf no one makes u to hear this rant/opnion u choose to, so behave urself or gtfo.

Only problem is, Shadow Kurd that the quote you've posted there is a response to someone asking for the Divine Aura to be sold through the online store.

While you're at it ask if we can have the Prophecy CE divine aura for a price similair to the Game of the Year weapons too. Anon*
Her initial response to the request for the BMP to be made available again was this:



Quote:
At this time, we are not sure about future plans for the Bonus Mission Pack. I will ask again if it might be offered for sale through the in-game store or something of that sort -- as I have asked several times in the past. However, I honestly don't have any information for you at this point. You can be sure that I do appreciate the desire for players to acquire the BMP, and I will certainly share those wishes with the folks who will ultimately make the decision about it.
Which doesn't appear to rule it out really, does it?

it is getting hard to see people wanting to take advantage of the GW/Anet's known 'kindness' to their player base. I really hope that empty threats from a 'few' of a rather large populace doesn't sway them one iota.

as far as loyalty goes. if 'you' truly were as loyal as 'you' would have a company believe, you would have adapted and overcame. Hell I remember killing a guy for Floyd tickets back in the 70's lol. (that was B.S).

hear this: It is THEY who are loyal to US. make no mistake about it.

The BMP was intended as an incentive for players to buy it at the online store, which is far more profitable to Anet than buying it through retail. BMP promotion in the online store = more players buy online = more money for Anet (or NCSoft or whatever).

There are so many threads on this...and this is so poorly written I'm simply going to close it.
