Has anyone seen the new $40 bear mount?

Is it just me, or is the $40 bear mount as boring as the armors leveling up? If I'm about to spend $40, make the bear <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>. Seriously, you have a brown bear with some iron armor on it. $40?! For $40 I want a spectral galaxy bear that can fly.

    They don't need to WoWify the mounts, the bear is okay and looks D&Dish

    It's $40. Heavy Howler (Definitely WoWified) looks more close to that price then this bear. $20 MAX considering outrageous zen prices.

    Let me take back my last statement. This should be an 800g mount. Smh

    SMH at people who would spend 40 real dollars for a mount in a game.... 10 bucks sure, maybe even 20.

    There should be a Dollar Value class in school.

    I wonder how many people will toss the zen on their credit card, making that 40 dollar mount 80 dollars after interest.

    Any subscription based game you would pay about $360 a year to play, now think of the people that play these games for years. $40 for a mount that works on all characters is not a bad deal/one time purchase. Other than that it is simple, vote with your wallet. Don't like it? Don't buy it.

    I dunno, maybe some people like bears over horses or wolves. :P

    I personally don't. I looked at the bear for 5 seconds, said to myself: "meh... the wolf is more bad@$$" and went with the wolf. :D I guess i'm just not a bear kinda person. But some people I know are. She collects teddy bear plushies and had a hunter in WoW with a bear pet! I bet if she played this game, she'd buy the bear mount.

    oh I did. Sounded like he doesn't want WoWified mounts in this holy precious absolutely not a cash scam game and I was just informing him that there are indeed wow mounts in this game.

    Bought the Armored bear mount and LOVE IT !!!

    I wish I could get the spider, but IMO this is the 2nd best mount in game. I'd put the tellarium bar horse third. It was second but the bear bumped it ;)

    The armored bear looks exactly like the "extra" photo. Go to the Zen shop, click on the armored bear, and then click on the photo on the lower right corner for your extra pic.

    I'd be a little more tempted to buy it IF they had released the Druid class. Same with the wolf.

    For you guys who didn't see what the bear looks like:

    Sorry, but this mount is nowhere near worth $40.

    You suck at math. 15 dollars X 12 months does not equal 360 dollars. 40 dollars for a month is equivalent to almost 3 months of playtime for a subscription based model.

    This game has swords.. and WoW has swords... this game has robes... SWTOR has robes.....

    So this game is Star Wars of Warcraft? :P

    The Spider is the most WoW style mount so far and it's a far cry from it. there's nothing wrong in wanting this game not to just look like every other game that just shrugs, says "I dunno, just do what WoW does. It's making all the money." and copy/pastes all its design. (SWTOR, I'm looking at you...)

    I think you're forgetting the Howler (Definitely WoWish) and the **** Infernal Chest Mount. The spider is a STRAIGHT rip from Rift.
