There was a Survey about different "packs" they want to Sell for Wotlk

[Sweetdeal]

Could you link the reddit post or post screenshots of all the questions?

I just made one screenshot. I wasn’t smart enough to shot the whole survey.

But if you are interested, before the Pass Question, they asked: when was the last time you had fun in WoW? ( some like that, can’t remember the exact wording)

I have sent the screen to WoWhead tho. Not sure if they can use it, since it’s German.

I'll ask you the exact same thing asked on reddit. Any proof? Literally no one has posted screenshots or commented similar in the 20 hours since you posted. I highly doubt you were the only one to receive this survey.

Until evidence is provided, I assume, as should others, that this is needless stirring of the pot. Even if you completed the survey, past surveys from Blizzard can be looked at after the fact. Post those screenshots.

That said, I'd expect a lvl 68 boost that works on all races barring new Death Knights. And a 'deluxe' edition including a mount/pet/toy. For similar prices.

That is not true, when you click the Survey link it says:

Sorry! One of two things has happened. Either you've taken this survey already, or the research project has finished. Click here to login to your account, or create one!

Also it is not a „Blizzard Style“ Survey. At last the Survey Template was not. WoWhead got the Image and it’s up to them what to do.

Had the same survey, I only took a couple screen shots at the time. In the second screen shot they had maybe 10 questions with different check marks at different prices asking if you would buy option A, option b or none.

I had to modify the image url because i'm posting on a new account, wont allow me to post url and images,

just add https infront of the url.

Edit: I came from reddit post that OP created, i'v never had an account on here, but wanted to show screen shots.

When I got the Survey, I was quite mad as well, as special when I saw the prices they try to grab. For the sake I voted NO on everything. But I guess that dosn't matter a lot. It is just sad to see, they gonna offer Boosts again.

Oh no Bob bought a boost in WoTLK game ruined

Ah yes, so we have 1 poster who hasn't provided any evidence at all, and then a 1 post, clearly alt, account posting suspicious images

[Coffeh]

Is this real? I don't see any mention of this particular survey anywhere. Not on reddit (that thread was deleted), not on wowhead.

This appears to be a troll.

[OokOok]

68 DK is an instant fake story... especially if you did not make any screenshots.

Blizzard being greedy and making a DK boost on wotlk release, imagine thinking this of all things could be fake. When it comes to taking as much from the pockets of players as possible, it's always real.

Sweet. In your email client/website, there will be a folder called "Sent". You can get the screenshot you sent to WoWhead from there and post it here.

[amoedre]

You don't actually have to buy them though, do you? Nor stay subbed. If you disagree with their practices why are you giving them sub money, thereby supporting them..? Makes absolutely no fucking sense.

There's always one guy who posts the "don't like it, don't buy it" fallacy in threads like these. Your post indicates that you do not care about the discontent of other costumers and approve of any further escalations of greedy marketing tactics, as it doesn't personally affect you, shutting the door for any constructive criticism that would aid in improving future marketing decisions that would enable both the consumer and the producer to find a common ground.

[ablib]

How is this thread on 29 replies already, without the link to Reddit, or screenshots that can translate this thread into English?

[xuros]

I don't mind them selling extras. Business doing business things. You are in no way obligated to buy any of it.

...that's the thing though

Blizzard doesn't give a shit. Most video game companies don't give a shit and the shareholders REALLY don't give a shit.

Monetizing works, it makes games more profitable and allows things to keep going with the least amount of backlash. Sadly right now the only alternative to micro transactions are in game advertisments or raising the subscription price

Also as an aside I'm not a fan either I just kinda realize it's a thing that's gonna happen

So pick your poison

-Optional micro transactions
-This raid is sponsored by Amazon Prime
-Wow costs $25 a month

Game is ruined guys, all raids and content will be rendered pointless.

[Makorus]

I dont think people who want to play Wrath Classic wanna play the shit that came before it.

[Deventh]

Yeah, looks like I'm not going to play "Classic" WotLK either.

Play Vanilla, the only version that is not tainted.

[NineSpine]

If boosts are good for the game, make them free. Charging for them and then saying it is because of “convenience” is garbage.

[ResentfulUK]

I honestly can't fathom why people get pissed off at the boosted characters and "packs" they sell with these expansions.

They're monetising an aspect of the game that for many is insignificant, and if it is important to you, you just don't buy it. Do I want to level every character from 1 - 80, no, I want to be able to go just get into the latest content, get geared and get into raids.

I don't see them doing anything with Death Knights, they'll start at 58, and we'll have 2 weeks with the pre-patch to get them to 70. As for another mount, toy or something, I'll be buying it because I enjoy the game, I want to see as much of it as possible and for me, that means taking out some of the time it takes to get my characters into the latest content.

[Nerovar]

Play Vanilla, the only version that is not tainted.

Or even better yet: play on the other servers that are free from Blizzard's corrupt influence.

Crazy how Vanilla Classic launched without any of that and it was still somehow viable. It's almost as if you're presenting some kind of false dichotomy.

That is completely fair, too.

I mean you couldn't boost BE or Draenei in TBC Classic and by your logic they would have simply because it would have made them more money. Clearly they are willing to draw a line for these sort of things and it's very likely there will not be a boost for DKs based on what they have done with TBC Classic.
