SWtoR Pre-Order

[Gogan]

Looks like pre-orders are now available. I was going to buy the collector's edition since the additional digital items seemed cool... and then I saw the $150 price tag. LOL WTF?

$150 for CE, how much for the standard? Can't look at gamestop at work :(

[Gogan]

$60 for standard edition. Both give you early game access and the "Color Stone", which changes the color of your lightsaber blade and blaster bolts.

The CE gives you a bunch of crap that nobody really cares about, plus the following in-game items:

Flare Gun - Fire a dramatic and inspiring flare high into the air.
Training Droid - A small but advanced training droid to hover at your side for combat assistance.
Holo Dancer - Portable entertainment system to project your own holographic dancer.
Holo Cam - Keep visual records of your in-game adventures as you travel the Star Wars galaxy.
STAP - The STAP is a sleek and unique in-game vehicle you will acquire during your journeys
Exclusive Mouse Droid - A little Mouse Droid to join your adventures.
Collector's Store - Unique in-game vendor with a dynamic assortment of items available only to purchasers of the Collector's Edition.

I thought the samething when I saw the 150$ tag. I missed the days of 40$ and 60$ for CE. This is getting out of hand. I won't be spending 80$ for a CE let alone 150$. I feel sorry for Lach.

CE sold out already on origin, go go star wars fans lol.

I would probably set myself at a 100$ limit on any game and I would probably have to really like it prior to spending it.

Tho the extras do seem cool, not a 90$ cool.

I know, right? You'd think in the days of digital downloads, prices would be going down, not up. Craziness.

Is everyone going to be playing SW, or are you guys still handcuffed to WoW?

[Kz]

we're all gonna try out SW at the very least i believe.

Looks like that oct 4th prediction was accurate, lets hope it doesn't get delayed.

Can you say "We will destroy them"? For the empire!

d3 and sw are two different genre's, its just like comparing a FPS to a RTS

I think as a guild we should color our bullets/lightsabers the same way so people know who the fuck it is owning their asses.

SOOOOOOOOOOn ptr

[Gogan]

Why don't you just pre-order through amazon or gamestop. That shit on origin.com seems ridiculous.

[Fusa]

I was under the assumption that this was the only way to get a digital copy.

If you're able to get it through a more reliable site without queue's and hassle, I may stop payment


edit



Ya my order already went through and I already redeemed the code so it looks like I'm all set, now cross fingers for beta!!!

[Gogan]

Oh, it might be the only way to go digital, true. Didn't think you guys were going to hardcore level though, so figured it wouldn't matter much.

[Kz]

i agree with gogan ima order mine via gamestop.

[Fusa]

I did this more in hopes of getting into the beta earlier to test out classes.

[Kz]

decided to go with origin instead of gamestop(they didn't know what was up yet)this is what mines says fusa.
