I still think it's a bit excessive having to pay 75$ to get an exclusive costume, which is essentially what some players are going to have to do if you want it but have no use for the controller. But I get that you need an extra selling point, I just think it's unfortunate.
Release the Release Date!
@cnt-thelrox
Aye, I bet! It's awesome, but when I click on the link I'm taken to my country's version and it simply says "Available Soon"@mad-mordechai you are paying for a controller, if you have no need for a controller then buying it would be daft
@mad-mordechai so don't have the costume? I'd much rather have the $75 to be honest (but I do quite fancy a new controller...)....almost like buying a Mercedes just for the badge...The controller is Bluetooth/PC compatible from what I have seen if that makes any difference?
@thor-von-blitz Strange. Well, on my screen it wasn't available anymore. I bought it thru the Microsoft Store aswell.

Huh, interesting.
Maybe they made it so that one person can only buy a limited quantity of controllers to avoid poaching.@khaleesibot Do players get the pre order bonuses regardless of where they preorder the game? Didn't see anything about it on the microsoft page when I preordered.

@triheadedmonkey It would be nice to buy the costume separately is all I'm saying, maybe in a perfect world.. :)
I don't understand this sentiment. It's an extra inducement to convince you to purchase this specific controller that is already twice the price of a regular controller. I'm sure there will not be a lack of other items/costumes for you to throw your money at.
@lol1itz1ryan Still no news yet... but there are not many days left in December are there??
Especially when you factor in staff probably won't be working over the Christmas holiday.
@khaleesibot
My friend who just signed up before December 1st received an email saying he's invited to the closed beta yet I haven't received one. I know we all get access regardless, but is there a reason as to why some people may not get the email?@khaleesibot Darn you Mother of Dragons!!! My wife is throwing money at you like her favorite stripper.... Takes money out of wallet, makes it rain at TV here just take our money 💰...
Who needs to eat... So going to be game poor over SoT....
While we are at it can you have them make matching Microphones to go with the controllers.! ??
🙀😼💃👯💏💖💋👅Perhaps someone will sell their code for the outfit on eBay (if there is a code). That could be a great way of obtaining the clothing set without purchasing the controller. However, I'd still recommend picking up the controller.
@techno-warwitch actually we don't need all the extra digital stuff, is there a different price and purchase options for just the controllers? @khaleesibot ❣
@f-bombr I'd argue they could've easily sold this without an extra inducement for people who play console or with a controller, as they would be buying this mainly for the controller. I just think Rare could've made much more from selling it separately, that all depends on the look of the costume of course, I don't even know what it looks like yet. I'm not concerned about there not being enough other costumes to choose from, it would just be a shame if the costume turns out to be really nice. :)
@glitterqueen86 It sure is! They are beautiful creatures... but if you find them in game things have taken a turn for the worse!
@techno-warwitch @khaleesibot also we like the after glow products, any chance they will make the eerie purple and green in an LED after glow products? Hint suggestion lol

Don’t worry babies never come when they are suppose to. Baby might be early or a week late. Both of mine were 3 weeks early!
