Question about Retail Commanders.

Jup, it says so on amazon sadly enough:

• EXCLUSIVE COMMANDER - in-game playable Commander exclusive to the early access retail version!

That is very sad. I want it!

HOLY ****!
I GOTTA GET THIS RETAIL COPY!

I don't know, steam early access doesn't actually have a "special" commander, yes it has the theta, but so does the uber store and KS buyers. We need a steampunk commander with some steamy smoke effects

...And people call me casual...

(I don't even know if they actually know the definition of it to be honest, though they're too narcissistic to listen it seems, oh well! )

First a Beast commander, now a king Cobra looking commander?!

I see those 100 custom commanders has really upped the art work.

I can't wait for even more cool looking commanders.

"Retail Commander" sounds like he's the store manager. He wears a 50 foot blue vest with Official Backer Flair pinned to the lapel.

Uber, make it happen.

Forever to be known as the snake commander.

Will the early access edition get Calyx? Will the Collector's edition get that... epic... thing?

Call him whatever you want, I'm calling him the tomb sentinel commander, or the canoptek commander.

Must say, this feels kinda shitty as a (high tier) backer of this project...

EDIT:

Apparently this guy: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhammer-40000/Necrons/NECRON-TOMB-STALKER.html Is a better fit...

During checkout it was very clearly laid out what you were getting. No matter your retailer. Why some of you think you are entitled to or hope of getting the new Commanders included within the new (could be real) offers is beyond me.

It's like saying "I bought this bundle a year ago and got everything that it said it included. Since I bought that so long ago that must mean it includes everything since then right? I know it wasn't on the receipt but?..."

Whoa there! I never said I was entitled to get them, I even clearly stated that I'd buy the game for a third and fourth time just to get these two editions of the game; sorry if it didn't come off that way.

Oh and if you're referring to the KS backer who apparently spent a lot of money, then I agree. Uber never said they wouldn't make future exclusive Comms and people shouldn't feel cheated for that, it's like expecting to get an item in the TF2 store because you bought the game back when it cost money or something of the like. I'm very proud of PA and would love to continue supporting it's development, as well as Uber, and so will buy the game another two times in addition to my Steam 90$ early access and my Uber store 200$ Cosmic Edition.

Please forgive me for the bluntness. I've just seen a bit too many threads on what's included in the bundle they bought.

Sorry if my general statement was perceived to be focused toward a single post.

I'm really just hoping for a commander market where I can go to throw money at Uber for new commanders.

This!! And that everybody can buy their favourite looking commanders!! Except the exclusive backer ones and kickstarter exclusives.

And that's why I've always said that this marketing operation from Uber is an unhappy one, because in the end too many customers feel discriminated or cheated, even if that wasn't the intention.

You give a reason to people to feel different, and you get troubles. It's a law of Nature.

I am not aware of how much more budget Uber earned thanks to Commanders, I hope it does worth all the pain. But it really feels like a missed opportunity to have done something way better for all players and not just the more moneysh (but here I'm probably biased by my political views).

Said that, Commanders are just skins. They do not impact differently on the game play. And other players are unlikely to bother and watch your commander while you're fragging them. Don't even give them the time

If I get this, it would be both for the commander, and my right click is going out on my mouse and causing me to lose a lot of gunfights on Planetside2 (the ADS shutters and jerks my gun around).

Hopefully farther down the line though. When I have the money lol.
