Commanders not on sale? blizz y u so greedy?

General Discussion
1

was moderately interested in SCII since u give me F2P.

had fun w/ co-op for a while. then got highly uninterested when i learned that commanders were $5 each. (r u kidding me?) … instead of at least offering some kind of bundle pricing like they were previously.

and now they are not on sale?

(don’t get me wrong it’s not like i’ve been sitting here waiting all this time for BF sale. i just figured i’d check since the sale came to my attention.)

but yeah. the disappointment is real. I see no reason to have this dreck installed on my PC any more. bye.

P.S. D4 looks like poo.

Well, they are greedy. Commanders were never on sale not even once I guess? However when you got the game for free it’s not that much to support it by giving a single 5$ for a commander you like. Normally you would pay around 20$ for one expansion (I’m not sure about the US prices for the game because I’m eastern european).

Yeah there are community coop maps which are feature same, any community modder can make you same easily… This is just pathetic and insolent try to get people dry of their money. They want you to buy even for addon skin. Next you will have to pay for skins, which are parts of the building.

Best you can do not buy anything and give blizzard middle finger !!!

I was originally quite prepared to buy the actual campaigns until I found out they did the greedy d**k-move of removing commanders from what you get.

I was also open to buying some commanders if they were on sale.

I am not going to pay $5 for “one commander I like”, because I am one of those “gets all the DLC” persons, so paying $5 for one would imply paying $60 or 80 (or whatever) for all, plus buying the campaigns on top of that.

Not gonna happen.

In fact I don’t even know which premium commanders I “like”, since I refuse to play any of them because I don’t want to get attached to something I have no intent of buying.

Meanwhile, co-op itself is in need of more variation and content overall so that is yet another reason to not be super excited about buying commanders. I realize co-op is only a single, relatively unloved facet of SC2 but it’s the one that appeals most to me. (I don’t like the PvP. I’m bad at it, I don’t care at all for the gameplay style that one must achieve to be good at it, and I’m not that invested in SC2 overall to even attempt to be good at it, anyway. So it’s basically campaigns, co-op, and custom games for me.)

And as I ponder this now, I realize blizz greed has actually backfired to the additional extent that I have uninstalled the game and don’t even want to buy the campaigns! GJ!

As a final cynical point, you use the word “support”, and I have to say: blizz doesn’t need our/my f’ing “support”. They have more money than they know what to do with, and they use it for evil. The game I cared most about (Diablo), they ruined with the horrid excuse for a product, known as D3, and D4 is looking quite unimpressive, too. The DNA is polluted, at this point. Other than that franchise, they offer little-to-nothing of interest to me. I got into SC2 F2P as a temporary thing for misc. reasons but now I’m back to my posh library of 8 billion games on steam and I don’t need blizz’s free garbage. F2P was just a vehicle for them to try to rip more ppl off, let’s face it.

I do appreciate u replying to my thread. Sry for being so ranty. But: facts^^

Yeah, there are a many coop maps free on arcade, community modders could do these in couple hours. Most of the time you change couple variables in editor. Or they would have to make couple models… Modders do whole mods for free. This sh1t shouldn’t even cost any money, or it should cost less than or 1$. They are greedy f2cks, they want only making money from customers and don’t care about you, don’t buy anything !!!
