They say, never give your business to someone who treats new friends better than old friends. well I can’t help but feel disregarded after subbing for 6 months and then seeing the same mount included in the yearly sub.
I don’t understand this thinking from a marketing perspective. Either the people in that dept are incompetent, just lazy, or maybe they just don’t care about subscribers? but its a pretty crappy feeling to receive a reward for a long term subscription and then see that same reward regifted in a new package. it deminished the package I paid for and reduces the value incentive of the new package. It essentially makes me feel stupid for giving you my money and hesitate to purchase this new yearly sub, cause Im not sure these rewards won’t be regifted in some other incentive later.
You coudln’t take 5 mins to change the color? it really shows a lack of regard for the playerbase.
Pay attention marketing people, this is how you kill recurring revenue and burn your core audience.

Seems like a dumb thing to be upset over considering they usually always sell those “gifts” you’re upset about on the store as single items for people who can’t afford the big bundle or don’t need the sub time etc…

The 12 month sub is just two 6 months rolled into one, you get current and the next 6 month mount plus extra stuff.
What are you whinging about. Why shouldn’t the current six month mount be included.
Sometime in the next six months just buy a 12 month one. When you do whatever is left on your current sub is included so for example if you just got your 6 month one and also bought the 12 month you will have 18 months of Gametime.

The point is that I already paid for the previous item. I subbed based on that reward incentive and received that reward. Now its being offered again as apart of a larger package. Diminishing the value of the larger package and robbing my previous 6 month sub of any value.
But lets forget about that completely, Im more interested in why you personally would invest the time and energy in standing up for a corporation that is using manipulative sales practices?

Giving you a package worth 3+k for under $160 isn’t exactly what I’d call spitting in your face.

its $250 not $160 because I already paid for these items.
The items are just bonuses in the 6th month and 12 month subs. What you are paying for is the gametime. You still have that gametime. You are not losing anything. It’s just that the current long term sub now has gifts that also include that.

because they have your money. and now they’ll have the 12 month sub’s money. and anyone that buys these things are too mazed, so lacking in integrity to never buy them again.
spitting was removed from the game.

100%. That promotion only goes until mid January. How much do you want to bet that all 4 of those mounts will be on the store for $25 a pop?
On a side note… a year sub and big chungus murloc for free? Take my money!

Usually things with tiers of this nature include the items from the lower tiers in the higher tiers. Look to the expansion for a recent example. Not sure where the outrage is coming from.
They’ve got to pad the numbers somehow. At this point, it’s not simply the expansion that is a major issue. It’s the game itself. It’s just too long in the tooth to compete on the same level as years past.

Are people really still gripeing about a reduced sub cost for 12 months plus a bunch of mounts? The question to ask is “am I going to be playing wow for the next 12 months?” If the answer is yes then grab the goodies. If you aren’t or aren’t sure then don’t. It’s really simple.

I save money subbing for six months at a time. The mounts are just a bonus.
If I was paying extra for a sub+mount, then I’d be upset.
There’s no need to be dramatic. It’s just some free mounts for committing to a 1 year block of subscription time, which they’ve been doing for quite some time now.

They’re just not creative enough.
Which one was the 6-month mount again? Also~ won’t it be cheaper for you now if you buy the 1-year deal since you already have the mount in there? Just curious.
guys this is a satire post making fun of the feldrake trolls
I keep reading the $3k price for the feldrake…where does this come from. Am I not understanding something…did people spend actual real money three THOUSAND dollars for a game mount?
Seems a bit over the top. You should be perma banned
