My post was partially an attempt to generate a discussion as to the pro's and cons of a digital ticket and partially an attempt to satiate my curiosity about how people view such an option. Probably should have just made a thread over in GD. XD Well, I agree with pretty much everything you said, so it ain't much for discussion, but... ...I don't really see ANY downsides to offering digital tickets, especially when you consider the fact that it will offer up more money to charity. Can't exactly say no to that, can you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The definition of that term is to blindly defend a person or concept. At no point did I defend anyone or thing. And in all fairness, you aren't the only one accusing the OP of being a child, or a version there of, or telling the OP to grow up. My last bit of that post wasn't aimed at anyone specific. I would have quoted them if it was. Edited July 8, 2016 by Noamuth I hate this phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnccs215 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 6 hours ago, grimdraken said: Ok, white knight. Whatever you say. ;) That is rhetoric devoid of any argumentative value. Insults were never good arguments, and never ill be. If you want to actually "win" a discussion instead of just sounding like an a$$, please use actual criticism, instead of vague and ambiguous insults that aren't even well applied. Honestly, you are more of a "White Knight" than she is, because your arguments, so far, haven't been that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)T1mes1nk Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Come on guys really? The tenno salt is real in this thread ill see you guys in game with my exclusive syandana in a couple days lol joking aside I feel it's completely fair to offer incentive to attend an event, less people would attend if they offered all the swag in a digital ticket that's for sure. #Living2hoursfromLondon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been going to Cons, both as an attendee and volunteer, and after 5 years of this I have never heard, nor heard of, someone that paid 20 (or more) dollars for a day admission just for the swag bags. Hey Noa, Alan Tudyk will be at Emerald City Comicon! Are you going to make that 12 hour drive and pay hundreds of dollars in travel, food and lodging costs to see him and the rest of the Firefly cast?? Eh, I'm just going for the swag. I love me some free posters and that event booklet just gets my blood bumping! This is all I need. Edited July 8, 2016 by Noamuth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard ticket purchases don't include physical swag. Only the collector's tickets or higher (that sold out a week ago) get the t-shirt, and the standard tickets don't include the syandana either, only the sigil.

Ketec Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Just tickets... hah. I did some checking - it would cost me around 1.5k € for a tennocon visit (plane /bus tickets, multiple days of hotel fees, food). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cob_metallica Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) I'm talking about tennolive sigil 2015 , tennocon sigil + syandana I know these are supposed to be gift to people who went to these events, but i dont like this way to release new INGAME content from these events, i feel its unfair to people who would be able to pay for the ticket but can't due to their living location or their work, even if its only cosmetics. Or at least you could gift them as you did but make them available to tennos for buying. this is my opinion i would like to hear yours but to my side i dont enjoy to see new INGAME content out of my hands because of a living location issue even if i would love to attempt to these events even without cosmetics gifts. Don't hesitate to share your opinion about (without toxic replies) PS: sorry for my bad english Edited July 15, 2016 by cob_metallica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Elctrcstel Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 have you ever been thanked for something that you didn't do or have any part of? this was DE's way of thanking all those that came to the events; a way of appriciation to those who spent a valuable resource that cannot be regained, traded for or bought, their time. personally, im fine with these only being available to those that went. its not changing the game for me. not added any new content that will augment the way i play.

LABAL Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 It is unfair indeed. Seems like DE really likes to give some folks leverage for poking regular players with how much superior to them they are in every way. LOOK AT THEM FLAUNTING PEACOCKS.

Nethaufer Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 This is hardly the only game that releases exclusive content for certain events. At least they're not things you can get mastery in, and are just cosmetics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm asking to DE to thank you with a NON INGAME exclusive content, or make it available, because tbh i can't say it doesnt bother if it does, even if only cosmetics Edited July 15, 2016 by cob_metallica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
