I didn't say anything about how you obtain them, it's the fact that you get a single coin per day, with rewards costing 100-350 coins. As I said, it will take at least a year just to get the companion.
1 coin per day is absolutely terrible. At this rate, it will take over 2 years just to get the mounts and companion. Also, on an unrelated note, is there seriously no feedback forum? I refuse to believe that this is a serious beta if there is not a place specifically for giving feedback.
What they should do is open 2 or 3 more servers, and allow free transfers to them. What they will probably do is keep things the way they are until you can no longer buy the founders packs. Gotta milk that $200/$60.
Rule #1 of an MMO launch: Have bloody stress tests before launching. Rule #2: HAVE MORE THAN 3 SERVERS. Seriously, who in their right mind would open a hyped up MMO with only THREE servers?
The game opens up to the public, and there will be no wipes. It is basically a full release. The "Beta" tag is just an excuse to hide behind when everything goes horribly wrong, instead of actually having to be prepared for such issues.
