Creative Gaming Inc. Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 So the only non-physical exclusives that came with the LE were the Prime skins, the Recruit Avatar Armour, and the Avatar Cryotube, and now the avatar items are released to everyone? This seriously lessens the value of the LE since there aren't any exclusives anymore, except for in-game skins for the starter armour. It is not worth near the hundred-dollar pricepoint, I think 343 should give us LE owners some compensation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolmenade Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 You did. You got whatever else came with your LE bundle that isn't digital content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMSOTB Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 And you had access to the content before non LE buyers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creative Gaming Inc. Posted March 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 You did. You got whatever else came with your LE bundle that isn't digital content. Which was just a few pieces of paper and flat plastic, not a lot. It's not like we got the patches and the huge freaking Halsey's journal that was with the Reach LE for $90.

Oh, we did get that booklet, and a poster, that others won't have. I mean, all the physicals, basically. Anyway, even the specializations were sort of a rip-off.

Absolute Dog Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Maybe those of you who bought the LE Edition from 343 Industries have learned your lesson about paying so much for something the actual game company gives away to compensate for bringing an unfinished game to market and sells piece meal for additional profit. It actually used to mean something to buy a 'Special Edition' or 'Limited Edition' Halo game. Not any more. I do feel your pain and anxiety over this OP and all others affected by it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creative Gaming Inc. Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Actually, we had to wait for the Map Packs, and Specializations didn't get early access, we only got to choose from any Specialization when we hit fifty, as did any player who bought it within a month of release.

Silent Orbis Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Okay guys, lol. This thread is like turning into a battle between non-LE and LE people. So the only non-physical exclusives that came with the LE were the Prime skins, the Recruit Avatar Armour, and the Avatar Cryotube, and now the avatar items are released to everyone? This seriously lessens the value of the LE since there aren't any exclusives anymore, except for in-game skins for the starter armour. It is not worth near the hundred-dollar pricepoint, I think 343 should give us LE owners some compensation. As you can see, all he was doing was telling his opinion!

Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Are you sure it was released? Your avatar items always appear in the markeptplace because you own them, regardless of whether they are public or not. I learned this after seeing FOTUS avatar armor in the marketplace.

Mr. Wolfy Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 I have several points I would like to touch on related to this ideal. Firstly, this has been done before with the recon on Halo 3 and the "preorder only" recon on Halo Reach from Walmart, so it should come as no suprise to everyone. Secondly, the "limited edition" was done terribly this time and people who wished to pay the extra money were denied that option. By all rights the fotus in game should also be opened, since players were robbed of the ability to buy the version with it. Lastly, as previously stated by several people, you were given early access to several things others were not. This including the avatar items you are complaining about which are not even greatly valued by anyone anyway. Let's be honest, how often does anyone look at other's avatars? Other than in an avatar related game where the avatar's props are not even seen this does not occur almost at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I care, in this case I want them to release more. I would have bought the legendary edition if they hadn't decided to stiff themselves of hunreds of peoples' extra money by making the limited edition ACTUALLY limited this time. It was an idiotic move on their part, one that I hope they do not repeat, EVER. This may sound cold to the other players, but so did the time when they released recon to ANYONE when it was supposed to be preorder only back on Reach, or the time when they released recon to EVERYONE regardless of if they had completed the vidmasters over on Halo 3. I didn't hear anyone complaining loudly back then, why should they complain now having seen both of those happen and now seeing it happen again on Halo 4~? The answer~ because now it has affected them personally... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Of Harts Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 I haven't seen the Infinity Actual kit released on Marketplace. When is this being released? Or are you just making this up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Make_Big_Boom Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 As far as I'm concerned the LE was worth it. All in-game Halo 4 content has not been released on the Marketplace, so I'm pretty happy there. I actually like the Prime skins for the Recruit armor and Assault Rifle. Plus the emblems were a plus (I got like 3 extra emblems with Gamestop which I'm pretty sure I wasn't supposed to get which is beside the point.) If anyone had actually read through the papers and booklets with the LE they would have found a significant amount of information relating to Spartan Thorne (and his questions on why there is so little information relating to Master Chief), The Spartan IVs, the Infinity, and how a normal day for a Spartan IV plays out. Definitely worth a good read in my opinion. I also found out that the Infinity gives out special Community Cupcakes Plus you get a free digital copy of Forward Unto Dawn, a cool protective case, and cool metallic game case (which I'm having a hard time getting the game to come out of). All of that was probably worth allot more than $40 if it was sold on it's own, so the LE itself was a great deal. I don't understand why anyone would complain with that unless they just flat out don't like the LE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 As someone who cares deeply for lore, you guys are lucky with all that story stuff! I don't care for the avatar stuff, but I wish they'd give us the weapon stuff. I think it was unfair that a lot of the bonuses were US/Cananda only. Makes everyone else feel unnapreciated, least they can do. And FuD is available to buy anyway, you got it free! (I have it, and the case has cool shiny stuff on it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
