congrats on the game went live today :D

just saw the Neverwinter Pack and cant see any content difference with the Founder Pack, and I thought Founder Pack content is only exclusive for purchase for before the game went live

I bought the Guardian of Neverwinter Founder Pack and is actually happy to see that i can still get the Hero of the North Pack in the future after the game went live, but i can say that i feel the exclusive-ness of the Founder Pack is gone with the same content available for purchase now

anyone can share a thought on this? thanks

    I agree with you..I spend alot of real hard earned money to get the Founders Pack. I was led to believe it was for helping to pay for the testing of the content. In return we would receive the exclusive content. Then I could of been wrong?

    What's different is the "founder" title.

    durrr. whats the point of rushing to get founder's pack if they'll just re-sell it under a different name. kinda lame IMO.


    PS. I have the guardian founder's pack. dunno why its still just showing PWE user.
    I already have my mount, wolf, title and AD in game though.

    I think your assuming that PW has some integrity. When $$ is to be made nothing is off the table.

    You have to activate it. Up top, User CP, then permissions group on the left of the next page.
    TL : DR? Then don't waste my time responding.

    Started way before PWE with Cryptic. Exclusive means usually nothing, the sell or give the items in other forms away like veteran rewards.

    same <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> they pulled w sto they sold exclusive items w each box b4 launch then after launch sold them in cstore the the lifetime sub was supposed to never b available again and it is right now so yes standard practice for them

    oh, so it's a common practice for PWE then? but i guess it's okay for now, maybe the "founder"/neverwinter pack will actually disappear in time, and i'm still considering on getting the hero of the north in the future, im happy with my Guardian of Neverwinter Pack an would like additional content from heto of the north, do you guys think it's still worth it to get it in the future?

    I don't really like the idea, they are still selling Hero of the North. I was lead to believe, it was for pre orders as soon as the game exited from the open beta. That it would cease to exist. That it is filled with unique items. Though if they get the promotion, why urge us to buy it as soon as possible.

    The idea with ultra unique items. Is that the general public cannot access it. Its like when TOR rolled out its package for 150 dollars. They didn't continue to sell that Collectors Item they called it after launch. I would just liked more information then perhaps. I could made a well informed choice.

    I'm glad that I'm not the only one that this bothers. I thought, though I could well be wrong, that they even sold them on the premise that they were to be limited until launch only. That's one of the reasons that I felt the "Open Beta" period was so lame, as it was an extended period to sell the Packs. Oh well.

    Seriously?...they are going to keep the pack on for purchase?............I thought these packs ARE EXCLUSIVE to pre-launch? I rushed to buy the pack thinking on 30th April they are gonna be removed...so wait,then there is official launch...and the packs are still available...

    Adding that they are distributing EXCLUSIVE PACKS/ITEMS for FREE, as long as you reach them by time to grab one....and there are more to come, seems like a habit of PW CRYPTIC.

    This so upsetting...

    Well, yes the said a lot of different things before. The german and french websites did even have a counter that said the packs would expire the day NWO goes open beta but I play Cryptic games since 2004, so no surprises for me. :rolleyes:
