Firstly, i bought the CE back at launch when it was 70€ but comeon that's kinda greedy and completely disrespectful to all the devs work in 1.0 isn't it?

You got your ingame item, a buddy pass that counts as a full copy of the game for a friend AND physical collectables out of your CE, that's more than enough!

Also we did pay for a complete game so we can argue all night long but my question was there anything to it If we get in to beta or not its up to SE all i wanted to know if we would be getting in. im not demanding or arguing the fact just want to know the info if they say no then no ill wait and pay in 2.0 just hat simple .

you coming and saying we got ingame items is plain stupid yes stupid if you leveled in this game you never used any of it if you want to run fast get on archer/brd . but thank you for your opinion

way to ignore that they gave you a second copy for free
and actually the movement speed item was for linking an active XI account,
also you might not understand the concept of exclusive in game items as a bonus,
they are not meant to give you an edge over people that don't have the CE (if done right), its an collectors item, the helmet is an item that is unobtainable by other means, even if purely cosmetic by now,
also guess what we got because of the not finished game?
A full year of free gameplay and regular updates to go with it.
They did more than enough.

Well actually you started your whole thing off by calling it a collector's edition beta and you sounded like you wanted some kind of recompense by getting early access to the beta just because you bought the CE and the game didn't live up to your expectations.

That's how I took it anyway.

SE has yet to deliver on the CE and although I havent asked or even expected anything since, allowing CE buyers to get first dibs on 2.0 would be fitting, besides why would anyone care, not like many of the CE buyers still play, would leave ample space for others.

So the people that bought the standard edition of the game don't have the right to feel as shafted as the people that bought the CE? I'm pretty sure they both played the same game at launch.

Disrespectful?

How do you figure, they charged for a game that was far from ready , and the original developers were outsourced to a company that went bankrupt, hense they didnt give two squirts of piss about the gamers. And because of the way they built the game, SE had to eat crow and rebuild from the ground up hense the reason for a 2.0 release. No im sorry, what we got was essentually worthless before the fail. A sketch book, a token, a dvd and an ingame item that was worthless even back then.

NO , whats disrespectfull is targeting an obviously loyal following, charging them for two coppies of a unfinished game with every intent to charge a monthly fee. Lets not forget, Before the fall out, SE had intended to make money off this game, and if it wasnt for the outlash of the gamers there would have been no free trial for a year and no 2.0 version.

What is Disrespectful is dismissing all the hard work they put into the game the last 2 years and calling it a beta at this stage of the game. (not to mention the obvious wrong use of the term beta to begin with)

Also its been 2 years since the launch, they got practically slaughtered for it by the press and playerbase and officially apologized more times than i care to count, still complaining about it is nothing else than grinding the bones of a long dead horse to dust
