[cokecan18]

So, i hear the ps3 version is gonna be dropped soon. and i dont have the money to upgrade my computer or get a ps4. i just got this when it was on sale on psn. did i just waste my money? also i didnt get HW. im guessing it wont be worth getting. sadness..

When they drop support for the PS3, it does not necessarily mean that you will no longer be able to play from your PS3. It just means that they will no longer release expansions for the PS3, nor will they make updates and changes with the PS3 in mind.

I'd begin saving up to either upgrade your PC or buy a PS4, you have a while before support is discontinued. They said they're waiting until the number of subscribers on the PS3 are at a low. It may be after the next expansion, as an estimate.

Put away a dollar a day and you'll have a PS4 in a year.

They won't drop it at least until 4.0, and which is still over a year away.

You got plenty of time to save for a ps4 and it's well worth it.

I would suggest you try the game out for a bit first unless you really want to play an Au Ra or you can get it on sale. Till you hit 50 having the expansion doesn't really offer anything extra. Once you get to 50 you will want HW.

Note that even when you upgrade your account will be the same so you can play the same character on any platform.

If he likes the game enough to reach Lv45, I think he should get Heavensward, because even he does not finish ARR's MSQ and he reach Lv50, he'll need Heavensward to break his Lv50 cap.

if your talking about getting HW for the PS3 and he can play it on PS4 PC and PS3 your dead wrong, I have arr for ps3 and HW and ARR for PC and when I was on my PS3 (without HW) my classes above 50 was stuck getting no exp. so he will have to buy ARR and HW for every platform he'll be playing on.

Be careful about this. If you buy HW for ps3, you'll have to buy it and ARR all over again once you switch. PLUS console/upgrades. Maybe you should stick to ARR til you have enough saved up for the hardware upgrade+both ARR and HW. Otherwise it may be a waste of cash. Your character information does transfer though. So if you have a collectors with collectors bonuses(mounts/minions) its still inside your character data even after transfer. You wont lose it.

I been playing on ps3 for 2 years now. I have heavensward and have done almost every content available in one character or another.
Yes its worth it. Sure you may have a few latency issues here and there (mostly if there's too many people on an area) and loading screens take a bit longer. But honestly nothing game breaking, or I wouldn't be playing for so long lol
