airship beacons

ive never used them
they seem conveniant
(another turbine pay for convenience item)
they are on sale at 75% off i think
what are the chances if i buy these things
and update 22 hits and beacons are pointless?
are they worth it at 75% off?

I think the question you're asking is, "My instincts tell me Turbine is trying to screw me. Should I trust them?"

Yes. Yes, you should trust them.


(Still, there could be an unintended value later, after Turbine discontinues/borks the beacon and releases an update that adds "features" to the old beacons.)

the sad thing is, i dont think its even intentional..they are just that incompetant when it comes to their synergy with other departments....
then again, ever since i watched one of their developer videos the one we they are all drunk on a couch and the topic of gnomes came up and i got the feeling they were all like(this is not a quote but a vibe) fuck you and your gnomes no chance...they seemed more like disgruntled employees than developement team trying to make the game better.
one half of me thinks the developers hate turbine/warner bros, my other half is just jerking off whenever it can

Glad we are doing this again. Old Shears back in store soon? They had a hidden feature too!

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

It's still one month before u22 hits... so Turbine would be a bit too early with the sale if they would be trying to trick the players.

But they will probably still work with u22, worst that can happen are better beacons that make them worthless.
Although... I shouldn't say 'worst that can happen' if talking about Turbine, they have some talented guys to come up with ideas that are worse than anything you can imagine. Cheesy

by the way thanks for the info
and if you want some store feedback
i get more sucked into spending when there are discounts,20% doesnt count.....

(put on old mans voice here) i remember the days of 50% sales(old mans voice off) but thats a given(sales that is),

i get sucked in more when items are cheap and you dont notice the tp's dropping, i think there are items in there
that are way over priced, sure you suck in die hards who want everything but you need to suck in the
tight arses who think they can live with out them,"its no big deal"(thats me).....thus here i am, would never pay for beacon but i will
drop 100-200 tp's on them if the guild stuff gets good reviews from lamaland....

wouldnt touch beacons without 75% off that should be about the right price for an item of convenience...
sorry to go all fog horn leg horn on you
and the punctuation is horrid...never mind the grammer

Fire - are you deliberately leaving the first quote off so it looks like you are posting something meaningful when it is actually someone else's words?
It's not very hard to hit reply with quote and the forums will bookend the quote for you.
