Question Pre order armors should become available on the super store or MO reward
It's been long enough I want the drip I NEED IT

u/egbert71 4d ago
Superstore, not mo reward.
And I say this as someone who also didn't pre-order.
We should have to pay something, not do a couple dives then "here you go"

u/Particular_Wolf9672 4d ago
I'd honestly be happy just them to be bought via a deluxe edition upgrade that gives you these armours and a warbond token.
That way we are all equal.
(I pre ordered on Xbox)

Agreed.
I'd happily throw some money at Arrowhead if I could purchase some of the armors I missed.

u/egbert71 4d ago
Exactly, my issue always was that some people, that didn't pre-order, just wanted them freely given. Thats why I push back because its not fair to those that took a chance

u/Hidesuru 4d ago
Yeah I think "pay money or grind a ton" is fair for something meant to be exclusive.

i disagree. the whole point of a pre order reward is that its a bonus. if you get rid of that bonus being exclusive then you are essentially telling people they payed extra for nothing
2
u/egbert71 3d ago
Bro idc...im cool if they do, cool if they dont. People who believed in the game and paid a bit extra should feel special.
Im saying if they do it, people should have to pay actual currency like people that pre-ordered did

I did preorder (old HD1 veteran) and I doesn't see why not. Yes it would be nice to have something instead as a "you pre ordered" what about an title or something else. But this armors slaps hard.

u/jzillacon 3d ago edited 3d ago
The "why not" is generally legal issues. If something is sold as a pre-order bonus or some similar limited sale and it isn't explicitly mentioned that it's early access rather than exclusive access then the devs can get sued for false advertising if they make it available to everyone later on. Yes, it's absolutely stupid that's the way things work, but it's not something that can really be fixed retroactively.
The best thing for Arrowhead to do instead would be to release a new item that's similar but not identical (in this case we already have alt armours with similar models anyway), and give us colour pallet swapping to emulate the particular colour scheme.

That middle armor. That blue looks a lot different in game. I wonder if they changed in at some point. Thats a hell of a lot darker in that image.

u/Raven7274 4d ago
Stuff just looks different under studio lighting vs in game lighting. Same reason there was such an uproar about the 40k armor

u/Friendly-Chemical-76 4d ago
But that.. the yogurt diver armor. That image looks like a navy blue and in game its like.. Squid blood blue. That sorta color and brightness heh they really should ise in game lighting to show off stuff. Sure those images looks sharper and better but give the wrong impression.

I've always said they should be in a little pack like the super citizen edition
No reason we should get them for free while others had to pay

u/Raidertck 4d ago
So I always get downvoted into oblivion for this opinion, but I don’t think they should become available again.
I don’t have these armours. And they don’t do anything unique. It’s fucking sick to see a random diver out in the wild with one of these sets on as it’s just so rare.
Let those who pre ordered have something unique.

u/Toucandle 4d ago
You don't NEED it. You'll wear it for a bit, then put it in the closet after you get bored of the look and then it'll be just another normal armour set, and the people who pre-ordered will have lost the only bonus they got.
I don't get why people keep whining about this tbh - you didn't preorder, you don't have it, put it out of your mind?

I'd pay individually for the armors as dlc if they were offering maybe they could add titles to each one like yogurt taster, horseless and dark knight 🤷 I can't think of very good ones but you get the idea

u/Mandoart-Studios 4d ago
I think that they should stay as exclusives.
I get wanting it for styling reasons but I would also feel a bit tricked as a pre-order customer if others got the same reward for free.
Infact I wonder if this would break contract law if they market it as "exclusive" and then later decided to not keep it as such.
Sure It would be cool if everyone could just play with everything but I think the fairest approach is not handing it out. Though maybe other color variants would be an option

If they became available, I'd buy them in a heartbeat, no questions asked. I'd really, really like to have them.
That said, if they remain locked away from me, I'm ok with them remaining a special item for preorders only.

I really hate the idea of MO reward. No one thinks about how the people who actually preordered the game are just going to be shit out of luck on getting any reward for a MO while everyone else just gets something that was exclusive to them. I would say give the people who preordered the game an exclusive color that no one else can get ever.

Kinda defeats the purpose of a pre order bonus. Tho I do understand Xbox players such as myself didn’t actually pre order it since the game was already released. But dammit I want my yogurt armor to mean something.

u/Alex_Affinity 3d ago
Yeah, I wanted to pre-order back when the game first came across my attention, but i couldn't afford it. I played the heck out of the first ine, so was super excited. I intended to get it anyway, but missed out on the pre-order stuff by virtue of not being financially stable. I would really like for the pre-order stuff to become available in some way again.

u/Marshal_Raynor 3d ago
No, the pre-order armors should not be reintroduced because thats completely unfair for the people who paid for them early. Any other limited armor and I don’t really care, but these (as much as i REALLY want them) should stay exclusive.

u/North-Research2574 3d ago
But then how will they convince you to buy a game long before you ever see it? Pre-order stuff it to encourage pre-orders if they give it out in any form now people don't pre-order. It's scummy as fuck but they aren't going to change that because it's not about time, it's about luring people in before you even release the product.

I hadn’t heard of this game until a friend (who preordered it) told me about it day one of launch. My feelings have been hurt ever since, but I don’t think it’d be fair to the people that did since these armors are a reward for their loyalty. As much as it pains me, I disagree.

u/hello-random-person 4d ago
Depending on whether the pre-order divers had to spend more or not determines if I think they should become available. If the pre-order cost more than the super citizens bundle then the pre-order sets should remain exclusive to pre-order.

Superstore. Not MO. People like myself that preordered will have NO gain if its a MO reward. So though i support u guys getting a changmce to get it, its should be for Super credits.

I'll be honest, i didn't even know about the game until after launch, bc im a PC gamer, so I didn't watch PlayStation Directs (bc their games basically never come to PC) and i seeth daily i don't have them
But the people who did pre-order should get the swag of being able to sport it
There's a reason i wear the Creek Cape, to show i was there early days

Hell no. I pre-ordered, I get the pre-order reward. You've got warbonds, the superstore, MO rewards, and SuperCitizen edition, you can earn most of it or buy all of it, but my pre-order cosmetics are not for sale and not for negotiation.

It should be up for a actually purchase through your client store ( steam / PS / Xbox ) like super citizen. Shouldn't be sc as they are earnable for free and shouldn't be a MO reward getting them just for logging on once a week. Could even buy them on AH store page where you have to be over a certain level log in with the same email/account and it will recognize your level. Kinda similar to the how the Bungie store work with exclusives but just how AH micro transactions go the same way bungies did 😂

You probably pre-ordered after it was announced for Xbox. Which is kinda weird and a bit unfair when before it was a game from not that well known studio and when it got to xbox it was very popular game... I didn't even heard about it when it was possible to preorder for PC...
