I guess you can't afford it, don't have an IPhone or your parents won't let you have any more money apart from the monthly sub for your WoW sub then?Originally Posted by Naomi_seashore

So sad... first Blizz makes the game so easy its ridicolous... Now they make the game to a p2p and cashshop and benefitshop... lol... So sad... Good thing I quit last month.. Blizz will just pump out shit all day long...
Exactly. It's not even a slippery slope, it seems like a very well thought out strategy to squeeze out every last buck from WoW before their next MMO hits. They started out by getting extra money from pet and mount collectors, now they've moved to AH players. It won't be long until they start putting the squeeze on PvE and PvP players, forcing you to fork out cash to remain competitive.Originally Posted by Ikkatsu
The moment I have to fork out extra cash to remain competitive is the moment I cancel my subscription. If I was still into playing AH that moment would be now. However, I'm sure Blizzard knows this and have calculated that they'll make more money through destroying their game this way.
The real bullshit here is that we already pay monthly fee, such service should be free, not a new way to earn more money..
I'm enjoying the moaning in this thread. Same as I enjoyed the moaning with the Celestial Steed.
You aren't being forced to use this new feature.
You are some of the sorriest SoB's I have ever seen. I swear you guys feel better because you are moaning about stupid shit. You only feel good about yourselves when you can put other people's ideas and complain about things that needn't be complained about.
Hmmm choices choices.
A pay 3 bucks a month to Blizzard for some crappy app to use AH out of WoW which will consume my free time.
OR
Pay 3 bucks a month to a chinese gold farmer to get me all the gold I will ever need in the game and I will win more free time.
I think I would rather pay the chinese gold farmer as he seems to offer a better service to me than Blizzard.

I can't speak for Madden but I've bought FIFA the past few years and there's been a massive improvement in gameplay. It might look the same to most people but anyone who has played the game will notice changes, it's definitely not just a new skin every year.
hm... tbh the real value of your subscription has dropped in the last 5 years, it has never changed but inflation has been plugging away, as a franchise blizzard would be well within its rights to increase the cost of your subscription each year but they havent done so.
as a way of off-setting the profit loss caused by this they have instead decided to add additional utility for a small amount of money. wow i guess blizzard are the epitomy of all money grubbing evil scrooges in the world

Next up, WoW for iPhone/Android?
How about a web client for WoW so that we can play anywhere, anytime, from any computer?
Hmmm... not so sure I am a fan of this. Yet.
Milk us more, please.
Oh man, that's epic.Originally Posted by Znuff
$2.99 to manage the AH remotely. No thanks buddies.
nice.
now the undercutters don´t even need to log in to destroy the economy in WoW
In the end the winner is still the last man standing.
Ugh, you've got to be kidding me.
They wouldn't put an AH in Dalaran, but now for a modest fee you can take it with you to the port-o-crapper. Beautiful.
And as someone mentioned earlier, hard core AH users wont want it because of the cap. Most everyone else just buys shit for raids, flasks and what not. Only morons will pay for this... right before they go stand in fire.
Wow, so much fail here. First off is the actual online AH, secondly is the people that are saying "OMG must get an iPhone lulz" and thirdly is the people that actually post hundreds to thousands of auctions per day. Like seriously... maybe go outside or something?
The interesting thing from this though could be the statistics of the market that can can easily be obtained. Everyone likes pretty graphs.
hm, i never had IPhone and dont want to have one.
I used AH mainly to buy flasks+ mats.
I´m not going to spend even an extra cent/month for ridicolous things like that one.
I think its just a way of DLCs for WoW.
Whatever,i hope Blizz manage at least to keep WoW servers running properly after Cataclysm-release >
