    Nope , it is not what they are doing.

    They said it will be open for us to acquire later , all that may mean is EVERYONE can acquire it later.

    So the steam users still got ALL the pets and we are out of it.

    The fact does not change , new players can get everything , old players can go *** themselves if they dont like it.

    There is the matter of taste also , in which i really dont think a white wolf is something we can compare to the brown dog , but that is personal.

    For the last time:

    New players do not have official access to the Explorer's Pack. You can complain until you're blue in the face about people selling the codes independently, but the fact is that ZO no longer offers Explorer's Pack bonuses with any order of the game.

    And it's not a white wolf vs. a brown dog. It's a white wolfhound vs. a brown wolfhound. Same dog. Same model. Just differently colored hair.

    Well I wouldn't even care about that if they released the brown one soon... I'm hoping it'll be like.. Within a week.. Instead of within a month T.T
    Either way... What if they make the brown one in the store for $5 or so? Anyone who got the grey one would not buy that. While people who really want the brown one can rather easily get it.. I'd say if they put it in the ESO store for $5, that would be the perfect situation.

    Mate , for all the time you spend on these threads you should have already noticed the mutltiple posts of people saying how they bought the code and got zen to activate it , even on the steam account.

    And , the issue remains , it does not matter , the dogs is for everyone for only for those us here already , so yeah , we got the shaft and atleast i dont really take it well when that happens to me , even more when im a customer.

    Let me explain one more time:

    You can buy the code from an independent seller. That does not mean that the code is still officially available. ZO didn't invalidate the old Explorer's Pack codes, and they have no control over what people do with their existing pre-order bonuses. However, they no longer offer the code with any new purchase. It isn't officially available.

    So you have something other people can no longer get without visiting an independent re-seller. Why that matters, I don't know. But you have it.

    Having seen the dog in-game, it barks all the time. That would quickly get old for me. I'm happy with my dwemer spider, but would also like a pet cat. Cats rule!

    They don't get the pets you already got. Pre order pets and so forth.

    By getting it on steam, they get a particular pet... by pre-ordering, and getting a physical copy, others got particular pets.

    Nope.

    I am just on the first page. I have to jump in with, this is wrong.

    This is what Steam gets.

    1. The Imperial Edition includes:
    2. Play as an Imperial: Become an Imperial and play in any Alliance. Gain unique bonuses, crafting styles, gear, and more.
    3. Imperial White Horse: Summon this Imperial mount and journey through Tamriel with speed.
    4. Craft Imperial Gear: Immediate access to craft in the Imperial style on any Imperial Character.
    5. Mudcrab Vanity Pet: Explore Tamriel with mudcrab pet scuttling along by your side.
    6. Rings of Mara: Complete the Ritual of Mara with a friend and receive and experience bonus when you play together.
    7. Transform Into Imperial Gear: Transform any gear you own into Imperial styled gear.


    It's the same stuff in the other digital imperial editions... And they get an "exclusive" pet.

    IE bonuses are not pre-order bonuses.

    Steam players do not get the Explorer's pack as part of their purchase, nor can they without buying it separately from an unlicensed third-party seller.

    Hum ... which is fine , the point is , they can get it.

    We cant get the dog at all , there is no independent seller or re-seller for this.

    In the end , it does not change the fact that , steam users can have all we do , but we cant do the same to them.

    Which honestly , from all the MMOs i paid from day one and joined , this is a first , atleast while i was still subbed , before they went F2P...

    All my reasons to support this game while i was not playing much are now really gone , it is a matter of finishing the remaining content i want to finish and unsub until they launch more for me now.

    Seriously, if not getting one pet in the game, when there will be an option for the same pet in a different color, makes you mad... you priorities are messed up.

    It's clear you are just looking for things to whine about. There are going to be times in life where you can't get what you want. Deal with it.

    The wolfhound vanity pet is a limited-time bonus available only to those who buy the Imperial Edition of The Elder Scrolls Online through Steam.

    Yes, we get that however it is the WRONG way to bring this pet into the game! Everyone wants a pet dog and you NEED to rethink this "limited-time bonus" offer and offer it for sale OR better yet add a quest that anyone can do to get this pet....

    You can't compromise with these people. It HAS to be the white one, it HAS to be free and they want it NOW.

    Um...nobody said it has to be free. There were people willing to buy the full Imperial Edition again in the hopes that they could get the code for the dog and add it to their existing account. Needless to say, they were disappointed.

    On top of that, plenty of people are happy with the brown dog we're getting, including myself.

    Every game in the history of ever has done limited time and exclusive offers. Just because you don't like your exclusive monkey doesn't mean you are entitled to someone else's exclusive wolfhound.
