[quote]You do realize that the way that sentence was structured where 20 million is just an abstract number it's just a demonstrate the philosophy of how it works.[/quote] It demonstrates it inaccurately to illustrate YOUR POINT. Your post comes across like fact but it's PURE conjecture and to anyone with any experience in the industry it's blatantly and embarrassingly obvious. You don't know what you're talking about and you're influencing others with that misinformation. It's not right and you should know better.

  • Actually everything I'm saying is perfectly sound you have no argument with any specifics that you could possibly use to dispute what I'm saying. Just basic capitalism

  • Sorry for the late reply, I was pre-ordering my new car. Just bought it no test drive and without even knowing what it looks like. I'm helping the automotive industry produce next year's line of vehicles by blindly buying this year's! :) Oh wait no... I'm just an idiot. Basic capitalism says BUYER BEWARE. But no, you're right, it's totally a positive thing to buy a product without knowing anything about it other than who made it and what they've made before. I would usually send you a PM explaining how the industry works and how pre-ordering is more of a cherry on top instead of the foundation of funding. But y'know what... You are so bitter and so obviously upset by people disagreeing with your "perfectly sound" philosophy, it'd just fall on deaf ears. Get a job? How about get some common sense and a dignified outlook on the power you have as a consumer. Chump.

  • I actually preorderd my 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT with all heated leather and a 6 speed manual site unseen. It is the best car I have ever owned.

    [quote]I actually preorderd my 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT with all heated leather and a 6 speed manual site unseen. It is the best car I have ever owned.[/quote] But you'd researched the car, right? You knew what you were buying. You knew it was a 6 cylinder manual and not a 4 cylinder automatic, right? You knew it was coming with the heated leather and all that jazz. You knew the colour too... You knew [b]for sure[/b] what it was before you bought it. Can you say the same about D2? [spoiler]No you can't.[/spoiler] [spoiler]And I'm sorry, but if you bought a car without test driving it, it's because you either drove it elsewhere (a friend's car or a family member) or you are just a seriously careless consumer. You should absolutely test drive a vehicle before you buy it... What are you, 15 years old? Who advised you to buy a car without driving it first???!!!?! Just because you did that DOES NOT make it a good decision. What you did was incredibly risky, a perfect analogy for your D2 preorder. Could it end up being the best game ever? Yeah. Could it end up having the wheels fall off and the leather ripping after a month? Yeah. Hopefully you have the same LUCK with D2 as you did with your car...[/spoiler]

  • It's safe to say that Destiny 2 will be similar to Destiny 1. If you did not like Destiny 1, then you shouldn't be pre-ordering Destiny 2.

  • [quote]Actually both cars that I've owned. Not driven first[/quote] And both of them you had researched and knew EXACTLY what you were buying. You didn't just see one trailer for the new model and called up the dealership like "Get me the new one and surprise me with the features and colour!"... I think you'd agree that it's irresponsible to be throwing money around without knowing what you're about to buy. It's about common sense, dignity, and knowing the power you have as a consumer. You obviously don't value that power and are fine with being careless with your money. THAT DOES NOT MAKE IT OKAY. But let me guess, the house you live in too right? Best house ever, no walkthrough? You just called up a realtor and slapped down 20% and said "I'll take it!" He said "I haven't shown you any houses yet.." And you said, "No worries, I trust you, plus I'm helping the future of your business!" He said, "Wow thanks" went over to the water cooler and said, "This chump doesn't even want to look at the house before buying it!" "Someone told me he bought two cars without driving them! What a chump!!!" "We can easily take advantage of consumers like him!" If you can't see that it's dangerous both as a consumer and as a business to be buying things before you know what they are, then you're hopeless. You wouldn't buy your new 2006 whatever car knowing as much about it as we know about D2. I rest my case.

  • First car 2001 Saturn SC1 3 door coupe paid western union had it waiting for me after NATTC was so new I couldnt get parts for it for 6 months after it was tailgated at the NEX. I donated it in 05 to a Single Mother. Second car the Eclipse GT I saw on a magazine rack and ordered the first off the line and had it shipped to a local dealer. I bought both based on price reported mpg and looks having never seen one up close.

  • [quote] I donated it in 05 to a Single Mother.[/quote] Bahahahahaha man why are you so obsessed with the humble-bragging.. It's pathetic! IDGAF if you donated it to a cancer surviving rescue dog that just lost its hands in WW2, you're still an idiot for spending tens of thousands of dollars on something you saw in a magazine! You have zero dignity or common sense with your money. Keep proving my point, please!

  • I was coughing on my dignity as a consumer to be responsible with my money and with my influence on an industry. Both through purchasing products, and by spreading the word. I'm going to leave it at this, because this is really my gripe here... [b][i][u]If you're going to post about something, you should know wtf you're talking about.[/u][/i][/b] [spoiler]Your lack of experience and information about the industry is embarrassing and it's irresponsible to spread those lies to other impressionable people here.[/spoiler]
