omg talk about being an uptight ass who thinks it's fair to have a 1 week sale when most people want longer.

If you "whales" had spent enough i'm sure they wouldn't have extended it, but then again without us tunas u whales wo8uld be playing no one so suck it up sunshine

good go cry somewhere else it litterally does not hurt you at all that more people have a chance to get the thing. The only reason this should make someone mad is if they are out money that they would have needed and could have waited which is just as much your fault for spending it on something that gives you only a timed exclusive thing anyway so pleas please please go cry somehwere else

PGI
that is dirty pool for those of us that jumped in for you with the EXCLUSIVE BONUS CONTENT.
Advertise bonuses for preorder before Feb 28th then Extend it with same bonus.
COME ON.

I took heat to preorder that pack in the short time you advertised it and then you go and extend it.
BULLUCKS.

SET ATTAINABLE GOALS AND BONUSES .

exactly, 1 week was way too short and should have always been 3 weeks

you try explaining your idea again, this time in English please?

1 week was a joke and an insult to the much larger % of player base who can';t just whipped out $150 without notice.

you whales have such a feeling of entitlement it's absolutely amazing how much u think u deserve over the rest of us on something that isn't planned for released for 5 months, so please, go whinge to someone who cares, as i don't give a flark and it's just as much my entitled to cry foul as it is yours to complain you don't feel special anymore.

I keep seeing people hint about so-called "competitions". Just what are these? Where are they held? Who are sponsors and governing bodies? What are the prizes awarded? How much are the monetary awards worth? Are there endorsement deals to be had?

It's a tiny % of players who think themselves elite compative players when really they don';t realise how small a % of the player they are that there not worth anything yet one of the loudest bunch of whingers ****** there are

I suggest you educate yourself about that case. The coffee was unreasonably hot, it caused 3rd degree burns that required skin grafts. She only wanted enough money to cover medical expenses and lost wages, asking for around $20,000; McD's offered her $800. After witness testimony, including from McD's own safety people, revealed that McD's knew it was an issue, had been sued for it repeatedly, and went with a policy of settling out of court with people rather than correcting the issue for over a decade. The jury, offended by McD's willful negligence, awarded the woman a total settlement of approximately $2.9 million (the case was appealed and later settled out of court for an undisclosed amount, reportedly less than $600,000).

Wrong. You need to not search wikipedia for the true "smoking gun" (even your article link points out the coffee was within standard temperature for the industry). The reason SHE WON was because McDonalds changed their cups and added new "warnings" prior to the conclusion of the case... which was then presented as a admittance of guilt. Prior to that, coffee was ASSUMED HOT and the degree of heat was not a major factor. Yeah, it could serve you better to take a law class or talk to a lawyer.

I suppose you want people only to use androgynous Bibles, to never use the term "actress", etc, too? SInce the OP is a man (most likely by the post, though with same sex marriage, not a guarantee) there is nothing remotely sexist in saying "a grown man", since the obvious context is referring directly to the OP, whom, one must assume, is a grown man.

Don't throw out being all for personal responsibility, then cling to the cliches of the ultimate motivator of nobody being responsible for their actions, Political Correctness.

Sheesh dude.... (oh wait...that was sexist.... dude/dudette? Androgynous personage?)

Bishop, come on now. Should I just point to your Wave 3 "no more money, foot in the sand" threat and call you a hypocrit for hounding on this guy while ranting at the same time for things that bother you (A la the Enforcers Head)?

Bishops advice - Uber rant on twitter OP, maybe you can force your changes.

Well after this, I personally will not be buying anything else unless they make it right in a big way... I have spent a TON of money on MWO but this will in fact be my last purchase with these kinds of poor choices by PGI. Yes, I'll continue to play as I enjoy the game. But, they will not see another dime from me. I'll simply convert to c-bill only purchases like so many others. As I think I have 108 mechs with 5 or so empty bays, I'll have room to play as I wish...

Why don't you ask for a refund instead and give the game away instead, it sounds like the only solution thats gonna make u happy cause right now your feeling of entitlement is being watered down cause others have a chance to get on this that didn't have the ability to do so in 7 days,

cried enough yet?

[Vandul]

Thanks for extending this. I dodged some major wife agro this weekend.

[Sorbic]

They made a mistake closing the pre-order window before people could see what they were buying. Mistake fixed.

Lol, aside from the two posts being UTTERLY different? Go for it. I'm not demanding anything, no restitution, etc. I'm not even saying I won't buy things in the future. I do on the other had provide, honest insight as to why, I am not interested in THIS package, and judging by the likes and comments, my concerns are not just mine alone.

Do you honestly think that PGI extended the sale purely out of altruism? I would venture a guess that they are not selling as well as they would like. Explaining one of the possible reasons for WHY that may be the case, well, is usually considered good customer feedback.

So other than my being the title specifically off of the nerdrage on from this thread, what do they have in common, again?



Also totally aside to the point of my reply to you. Come now, deflection? You attack the dude for being an old fashioned misogynist, essentially. For telling a grown man, to act like a grown man. Much sexist!!!

C'mon dude, loosen them PC panties and join the party!

Wow people are complaining about the extension of a sale
What the hell is wrong with you people

New buyers didnt get anything better than you
Your value was not reduced
The sale will end and many people will miss out

Seriously you guys have no idea how good you get it here at mwo

People that play archeage got screwed day1
When they released a new pack that was tripple the value of a founders pack for half the cost
And it kept getting worse with each update

Buying the mech packs in mwo is about getting better value for your money and low n behold that's exactly what your getting

Put your toys back in the pram and go find something to more meaningful to do

there feeling of being special and having something to lord over people has been deminished, thats why there whinging and having a sook

[Malckovich]

Myself and several friends bought Wave 3 pack on day one. I don't see the extension being anything but a positive, as more friends and customers can now get the value I got. I expected this extension anyways, as many people were not able to make the cutoff. Good on PGI for listening to the customers and giving more value and opportunity.

I do not feel I am owed anything else simply because they extended the window.

[Heffay]

Wow, this thread.

Some people will complain about anything. And others will complain about EVERYTHING.

[Hayato1983]

ok people argue that there is no problem with the new deadline but the truth is that why did they needed to change deadline? People are still able to buy the pack they wante and receive the mechs they paid for.Its not like the packages will go away or that mechs wont be available. This was a reward for the people who where willing to go the extra mile. why was the extension needed? The additional variant was a reward not part of the pack. Its no like people would not buy the pack, you either want it or not.
Gotta understand both sides. Cheers

it was far from those willing to go the extra what a load of crap.

it wasn't an indicator of early adopters, it was more who has cash laying around, nothing more,

your attempt to forget about the 4th mech is what EVERYONE was talking about as they have omni pods if u didn't buy buy the 1st crappy 1 week deadline u couldn't get for week later so there was so yes they where missing out on something and yes some people have budgets and 1 week ins't enough time to allow for an extra expense without notice so try look at the whole picture rather than just what u want to make yourself sound informed.

This, right here.

I shelled out for the second pack, but couldn't afford the last two due to the amount of cash I had allocated toward entertainment in February's budget so I super-appreciate the extension. It really works for both PGI and I, since I get to have a Wubxecutioner and they get to have a little more of my money. I don't really begrudge the people getting the lower packs later than me just because I had a small segment of my budget left over to allocate toward the first two packs within the initial deadline, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to still get the bonus for slinging a little of this month's entertainment budget that way.

Crazy me, I'm of the mindset that if your food is being served to you hot enough to give you 3rd degree burns than there is something fundamentally wrong.

[Bobzilla]

So everyone that's ok with the extension would be ok if they offered every other exclusive content for 3 weeks right?

Lets see how founders feel about this, as it's the exact same thing.
