Conveniently, everyone "forgets" everything that was said about the Normandy Crash Site, Hammerhead releases, etc.

I fail to see how it's like people complaining about free DLC at all. An incentive for me to pre-order was the Inferno Armour, by including it in this DLC you've just removed or devalued any incetive that I may have had to pre-order. People that are in a diferent region to me that were offered different items for pre-ordering are getting 3 items for the same price I'll have to pay for two items. If you say the Inferno Armour is a free addition then why aren't all the other pre-order items part of the package also?

Edit: Actually if the rest of the pre-order gear, sans Collector gear, had have been part of it I would have jumped at it. I think I'll give it a miss though.

So how would you feel about this DLC pack if inferno armor wasn't included?

Think about your answer carefully, then reread his post. Then consider what BioWare has already given for "free" as part of CN. There will always be those people who refuse to acknowledge the work on those DLCs was actually stand-alone and not just cut from the pie before being served.

Yes, that pizza drawing is dumb. All this crying over $2.

ageed...I think it still falls under my opinion that they are not necessary to beat the game and affect main story even though they are free.

You think they won't be coming along sometime? Pretty much everything Bio does for prerelease content ends up being released to the community at large in a few months.

If they end up doing that then I'll consider getting them all at the same time if the overall group of packages are worth it.

If this pack had the Terminus gear rather than the Inferno armour I would have picked it up but I would have understood why people with the Terminus gear would have been annoyed about it.



Simple solution....



Inferno Armour listed at 80 points

Two bits of head gear listed at 120 points

Combo pack of the 3 items listed a 160 points



I have no problem with buying the DLC I'm just not going to be buying something I already have

what if they got rid of inferno armor from the pack but left the price? would op not complain about it?

I wondered this myself, actually, and came to a conclusion that made me sad.

it's like all the people who complained that the free DLC we released with the game wasn't...free enough. since all of it was built from the ground up as DLC (and not cut from the game as some conspiracy theorists might think)

Tell me what is this free DLC you speak of? Clarifiy it.
I can read the legal disclaimers on the ME2 box and Cerberus Network card, clearly CN and the ensuing content can't be what you mean.
If you do mean that you might want to get in touch with EA Legal before responding.

I like the DLC armour, which is a good thing since Bioware sent these intimidating guys over to my house who threatened to annoy my dog until I paid for it.

Stanley Woo came to my house personally and begged me to buy it.



I told him no.

"Look at me, I'm being witty!"

Whoopti****indo, way to miss the point.

[SuperMedbh]

There was a point? I mean besides, "I don't want to buy this DLC because I've already got part of it"?

P.S. The gerundive of **** has a g in it.  One never knows when that bit of information might come in useful.  English majors do like literate gentlemen:  it comes from reading too much Austen and Bronte(s) in their delicate teen years.

I didn't miss the point, I just don't agree with it.



Derp.

I see, so all I have to do is wait for Bioware to stick it up your ass to notice what's wrong with the picture.



Ok, I can wait.

The least they could have done is remove the helmet from the inferno armor (we saw that it's possible from the Kasumi mission)

What would you have preferred him to say there? Generally when I'm talking about stuff I don't have to pay for I find that "free" is a pretty useful way to refer to the stuff. Gets the point across, you know.

I'm sure you're trying to make some sort of point rather than just being pedantic. So what is the point?

[Massadonious1]

Complaining about optional digital luxury products within a optional luxury product isn't a cause?

Damn, what have I done with my life.

Don't you just love it when people insist on posting while not actually adding to the conversation but just wanted to whine and carry on pretty much like all the people they are in fact complaining about.



People will buy whatever DLC is put out there go right ahead, I am personally skipping this one for the reason already stated. If people have a problem with someone not buying the DLC for the obvious reason "I already own the Inferno Armour.", I ask why is it such a concern of yours if someone doesn't happen to want to buy something they already own?



People will complain about having to pay for any DLC while I'm sure everyone would love all the DLC to be free but we've had quite a lot of stuff free already and even if you had to pay 1200 for the CN card cause you bought the game second hand you saved money on buying the game new and still got quite a lot of stuff for your 1200 points



Selling the pre order armours is a good idea, people got it for free some people missed out. Why complain now if you got the armour for free months ago that someone is getting the chance to use it if they are willing to pay for it. The only people who can really complain about this are those who paid stupid prices for it off eBay and well if they had that much many to throw away then 160 points shouldn't mean anything to them.

i missed out on the pre-order bonus by an hour so this is something i really appreciate bioware doing but yes i can see how people who already have it would find it not worth the money

In fact, the entire purpose behind microtransactions is to deliberately price each item low, to fool the consumers into thinking that it is good value and not an enormous waste of money. This works so well because a lot of video game consumers apparently have the IQ of chimpanzees and don't realize value is a relative concept. If I try to sell you a cup of my urine, it doesn't matter if I'm asking for 20 thousand dollars or 20 cents, it's still not worth the price.

you do realize the other pre-order items will be available at a later date right?
