... seeing NS2 and UWE on PAX feels kind of awesome. Already owning the game. I am so hipster.


I know - and everyone who has played with me knows - that I rage a lot about the game, but only because I love it so much.


I have the feeling that after PAX, UWE will have a few hundred buyers more.

    Hundreds if not thousands you mean, the influence PAX can have on NS' playerbase stretches far beyond the people that try it at PAX for the first time.

    What is this? I only just missed the black armor preorder (I ordered the holiday 2 digital copies for like $38.00 dollars or there abouts)... Would really burns me if they are handing these out to random people... Whatever they are, guessing black armor. =[

    Relax everybody, it's not black armor.

    Whoever gets the dlc should make a video though, showing what it does...

    its just a very very very small icon next to the player's in game name. (not in the scoreboard)
    showing the PAX logo.
  • IndustryIndustry Esteemed Gentleman Join Date: 2010-07-13 Member: 72344Members, Reinforced - Shadow, WC 2013 - Supporter
    So I assume they decided not to have it be available to people who didn't make it to PAX since it is just an icon?
  • WolpertingerWolpertinger Join Date: 2011-12-24 Member: 138958Members
    But at some point I want some player-costumization (at least) for Marines in-game. I mean... Space Marines... there is so much potential there, come on.

    At least you got 2... I waited last year, and was hoping they would offer the same deal for Christmas, but they didn't... Would have loved to give that copy away to a friend of mine.

    So, just one copy for 38 bucks and no black armor :( (I know, I am greedy.)

    I regret not getting it when they had the overgrowth promotion paired with it. Oh well. I just split the cost with a friend. =]
  • DrummerDrummer Join Date: 2004-02-18 Member: 26654Members
    they stated previously that it is most certainly NOT the black armor from the special edition, and that it could possibly be available to purchase by everyone after PAX is done

    so simmer down people!
  • peregrinusperegrinus Join Date: 2010-07-16 Member: 72445Members
    The DLC pax icon is the right thing to give away.

    People who didn't go to pax shouldn't care if they don't have the pax logo next to their name on the scoreboard.

    I believe reading somewhere on the forums a dev posted stating they want to add customization, and also female Marine model. I am sure that will come after release probably.

    Would be extremely cool if you could write your own ###### sh*t on the armor.

    Wouldn't mind that at all. Or some simple decals like the marines had in ALIENS would be sweet.

    And Marines themselves should look weathered as a game progresses, or even based on the hours of gameplay an individual player has got.

    i pre-ordered the alpha and got one copy. I couldn't even move in the alpha. I got black armor. Stop crying.

    Imagine NS2 really takes off, I mean like HUGE, and we are able to sell our black armour editions for like, a billion dollars. Nononono 2 billion dollars.

    That would be cool.
