just a quick question for arena net
will us guild wars fans who just cant comply with the current paying options for the gw online store ever set foot on the bonus mission pack?.........EVER????
i mean cant anet just make new payment options like these

surfpin

western union

pay by sms.

or instead of making us spend 30 freaking dollars how about we buy the missions all by themselves online seriously just sell the extra missions online for like 10 bucks or something i will definently take a risk of being hacked and buy it online but i dont wanna spend 30 bucks on something i dont want just for 3 extra missions!!!!

but if anet can just sell the missions solo online many more people will buy it or keep two options you can buy it alone or spend 30 bucks and the missions come along with what your buying(this will work well with newbies buying the game online and for people who have all the games and just want the extra missions)


also here is a nice tip for people who are planning to flame me press alt and f4 at the same time it'll help you with the flaming.

Anet should have been selling it separate anyways....

They could have given BMP for free for those people who spent $30 but still allow it to be purchased by others who just want the BMP...

your anti-flamebait is going to fail, count on it.

Logistically they can't sell it for less than $30. Why? Because people had to spend that much to gain access. If they do they'll have a ton of mad players. Their only real solution is to extend the spend $30 window.

oh and btw, they released eye of the north within that window for a reason...

There was already a thread suggesting this. It was closed. Imagine what might happen to this one...

Before this thread is closed, I just want to say something.

It's basically a lose-lose situation for Anet.

They make it only available for online purchasers (like now): LOTS of mad players who already bought the games they wanted, or preordered in a brick-and-mortar store.

They make it available separately: mad players who payed $30 buying three character slots they didn't need so they can play the BMP only to get scammed by a $10 offer a few weeks later.

But...seriously. IMO, selling it separately for $10-15 will make LESS people mad, since there's obviously less people with the BMP than those without. Since they basically scammed the loyal purchasers who already preordered in a brick-and-mortar store (like me).

just my 2 cents.

Back on topic, I do think this was a tad unfair to the people that cannot pay by online means to release content not available to 50% of the gaming population, there's too much QQing by people who already got it, or people that simply have their head in their behind to actually fix this.

People who want to see the on-line methods of payment broadened need to contact NCSoft, not Anet. Search for Gaile's response to why paypal wasn't able to be added as a payment option. We really don't need more threads about this.
