Re: Pre-Order Appearances

Is somebody who pre-ordered this I would be pissed if they just gave the Skins out I stuck by this game from the beta to the release on day one.

A lot of people waited and did not want to support the game to those people I say tough

    @deetskeet24 I understand your point but it’s less about not supporting the game and more wanting to wait for Christmas sales to buy it for less. Personally I’m fine without those skins, but I had an error with codes that didn’t work so I’m a bit upset about that.
  • @deetskeet24 I never refused to support the game. Granted, I had my concerns, given the disaster of Battlefront 2015, but as I told AbyssMessiah, "when I say 'can't afford', I mean 'can't afford.'"

    As it has been brought up you can still buy this version of the game but I would not make it unlockable via crystals or credits

  • @deetskeet24 What is the problem with paying real money to acquire these items? Obviously, they should not become available for crystals because, you're right, that's not fair to the people who pre-ordered. If the appearances were made available, but only through real-currency purchases, then I see no problem.

    @TheGamerSeal Instead of needing a new way to pay make them worth more than any crystals people can earn through challenges and milestones, so then people need to pay but if they have crystals already they don’t pay by much...?

    I would have thought this is what was meant by "not supporting".

    a.k.a. Spending less on it.

    I did not purchase the early edition that included the two aforementioned skins but if I had, it would come as a surprise and irritation if those skins were released again, to obtain in any way (credits, crystals or purchase).

    I am of the opinion that a pre-order bonus is and should remain as such. I have never pre-ordered a game and I fully appreciate that I may not receive all content as a result.

    Regarding affordability. Well, that is unfortunate but not a lot the company can do about that. Sorry.

    It is available through real currency purchase it's called buying that copy on Amazon or Ebay

  • @HCarbonic New currency confirmed: kyber crystals. Unlike standard, boring, GENERIC, crystals that do nothing but look shiny.
  • @alwe15 The very least they could do then is make a small layout change and remove the appearances as selectable options from the standard edition. That way, pre-order edition and elite trooper deluxe edition could see them and select them, but for everyone else, it would say 5/5 and be... acceptable.

    @TheGamerSeal Well, yeah, useless other than for Greivous’ collection - also has the ability to have regular classes use lightsabers and one shot heroes #BaLuNz

    Actually, a reasonable request imo.

    It's the same with Steam achievements with DLC I didn't buy for games I own. I'll never achieve 100% 😢

    @TheGamerSealI spelt balance the same way the devs create it - wrong. And I was replying to the uselessness of kyber crystals in game
