ATN Not In Season Pass?

Hold on while I uninstall the game because I payed 100 for the game and dont get all of the content… Good work 343. I defended you but I’m not blowing another 30 bucks on 2 campaign missions and hero’s.

> > > @BreezyStarfish1. I pre-ordered my copy back in June 2016, the full Ultimate edition, with season pass (that’s 7/8 months before it launched). Back when I paid, it said “expansion”, and never at any point was I directly told about the changes to what I had ordered. If 343i considered those two missions the expansion, I think the wording would have remained unchanged.

I’m trying to explain this as simply as possible so that people understand.

I didn’t know exact details of the contents, but the description laid out a roadmap. One of the promises of which was a “campaign expansion”. Two missions do not make an expansion. I know that. 343i know that, which is why they changed the wording. That is what I purchased, that was part of the contract between me and 343i. They broke that contract, not me.

There’s a reason I’m not the only one upset here.

That is all I’m trying to get across here.

If you guys are ok with that, then fine, carry on. This thread and the outrage herein can be used by 343i to learn from for the future. Or not, if you guys keep defending. That’s your call.

Exactly my point, he’s totally right

Well sorry friends I payed for ALL the dlc with my ULTIMATE edition!!! This is completely unfair and highway robbery tbh. They gave us 2 missions with their “season pass” and the two missions wasn’t even that fun. Not that fun is a requirement here… But I’d say getting what I freaking paid for is!! I echo other people in saying 343i your the new EA! I was mad at your crappy Halo 5 launch I couldn’t even play, and now you want to charge me another $20 for DLC I already paid for with my $100 ultimate edition. Yeah I don’t think so. I went so far as to go to Microsoft support over this, and they said they feel for me! Going so far as to let me purchase ATM and then refunding it right away while keeping it. Which they shouldn’t even have to do! Seriously wake up and smell the fact you’re slapping your best and most supportive customers in the face with this! Not that you care because now it’s out already couple days and nothing has changed price wise. Definitely NOT buying anymore ULTIMATE editons from you, because ultimately you don’t care about gamers, just your pockets.

> > > > > > >
> > > > > > > 2. It’s the publisher that makes these decisions, not the developer. 343 works on a contract basis with Microsoft. Meaning 343 gets paid a flat amount and Microsoft receives all of the money from the sales of Halo Wars, Blitz packs, and ATN. So really if you should be mad at anyone it should be Microsoft deciding these prices.

Apparently Microsoft support agreed with me.

> Alright, dudette. I’m simply saying that there is a high likelihood of nothing being done. There’s no point in making the same argument anymore because 343 doesn’t care. There’s over a thousand posts on this thread, and they still went ahead with their original plan. I’ll be genuinly surprised if they do anything to fix this mess.

You see though, I am not posting here for a change immediately with ATN. As I have said, I have no problem buying it at its proper price ($20USD). The reason I am still posting, as well as others, is to ensure we cover every little point 343?MS did with marketing their season pass and Ultimate Editions, to ensure it is not repeated with future, larger titles. HW2 is a smaller title in terms of sales, and the community response has been quite large in terms of upset due to the confusion and expectation caused by the marketing. There have been suggestions asking for “discounts” on ATN for UE buyers, however I am not entirely sure on this. I dont really want or need one, however it would be a nice gesture.

Yes precisely. What I noticed within this thread is that those who won’t understand where the anger is coming from, are also those who were unaware of the original promise of a “campaign expansion” being changed, and therefore those who preordered based on the old description had no idea about such a change (it was not publicly announced-any major change in a season pass must be made known) and therefore became frustrated when ATN was said to be outside of the season pass/UE.

The worst part is, as i’ve reiterated here quite a few times, is that this would have been avoided had 343 simply told us all of the change as soon as it happened, rather than telling us longer after launch with ATN once we’ve shelled out the $$$ for the UE/SP. Nobody is going to check the description of a game or season pass they’ve already bought to check for any changes all the time…

Being mislead by 343 is really frustrating. What a shady thing to do to your fans. “Season pass” complete bull -Yoink-. This crony way of advertisig genuinely disappoints me. I’m never pre-ordering or paying full price for anything released by this company ever again. You’ve burned your bridges. First MCC being rushed then Halo 5 misleading with advertising & now misleading people with the season pass advertising. I’m done fully supporting this company.

@JesseBuhler and others:

Yep, these are my thoughts too. To all the “loyal” players, who told me that when I bought UE, that one could know about this expension, think about this:
A season pass is a promise to give money for possible future updates. In the case of Tomb Raider, Total War games etc. this works quite well and all content is included, as it was promised at the beginning. Unfortunately its a “Halo”-Title which failed in this case and this is the source of my anger.

Ohhhh, we’re quite the little rabble those of us who are frustrated with the marketing/advertising practices done by 343i and Papa Microsoft.

WE the consumer, have the right to question the company which WE have provided money which WE worked for, towards a product they have distributed to us.

Ohhhh, those of us who are expressing our frustration are INSIGNIFICANT CHILDREN who haven’t worked an 8 hour shift to pay for this Disappointment. Those who want to denounce us obviously imply this meaning.

As consumers, WE didn’t know this would happen. As some mentioned, UE buyers don’t always keep up with the news. WE all have lives, WE played this game to de-stress from our busy lives. Some were happy and some were not.

Season Pass usually means you pay more but not too much for content. “I” never saw the June article regarding ATN until someone mentioned it. The aforementioned article disappeared just as quickly into the depths of the internet like Halo’s fanbase.

“Loyal Fan’s”? Loyalty to the game or the company? I bought the game hoping the gameplay mechanics and story lived up to the first one made by Ensemble. I knew 343i is simply a shadow. But, I gambled and I lost with dissatisfaction.

This thread will not die as long as there are those who are unhappy where there money is going. It’s economics, it’s reality, it’s society, it’s life.

After this game im done with 343 completely I’ve been waiting to see if they respond and include awakening the nightmare in the season pass eventually but that’s just wishful thinking. Those that defended 343 on these threads are just fake accounts to counter bad press, because it wouldn’t make sense for a company to tell their consumers they’re whining and it’s definitely “worth” the money. That’d be obvious. Normal people let everyone have an opinion and if they disagree that’s it they just disagree. no one is wrong in their opinion that they were lied to by 343, if you think it’s a good deal that’s your opinion but by definition 343 and Microsoft lied with the season pass, if not then mislead, consumers to believe they would get all HW2 content. “Ultimate” edition means by definition everything and 343 saying this is a separate DLC release from promised content is just words, just an excuse. You can not play awakening the nightmare without Halo wars 2, and they now released a “complete” edition that includes everything but “ultimate” doesn’t? If you don’t agree I understand you’re entitled to that opinion, this thread isn’t for you and stop bashing those that disagree. This game was on sale as soon as it was released and there’s a reason it’s not on steam, they just care about money. Which of course that should be all a company is concerned with it profits, but consumers pay attention and notice things like this. Instead of promoting a community of fun and competitive gameplay they created clickbait and micro transactions and didn’t include core game functionality of past halo titles, such as firefight. Money based card game, that failed and we are now supposed to pay for firefighter? I’m passing on future 343 titles unless something changes, it happens with other companies in various forms, I stopped purchasing bioware, EA, EA sports but that’s just me and my consumer choices, spending money on products that I enjoy and deliver what’s advertised.

I’m a fake account?? Amazing!! Never knew.

Very true, but that doesn’t mean both sides can’t share information/opinions and have a debate. There has been a fair amount of bashing on both sides, but also some constructive debate.

You need the game first before you can play the DLC right?

Sorry!! My bad lol I thought he said “You can’t play Halo Wars without ATN”.

Thanks for pointing that out!

I doubt most of it is 343 by the way, I’m all for it if you want to Down Microsoft though!
THEY are evil man, 343 makes games, I need testimonial proof before I can rush to the conclusion the most fun idea for a gamemode that 343 INDUSTRIES came up was Blitz Firefight.
A cheap, undeniably pay to win mode that involves the one thing that everyone Hated Halo 5 for.
Microsoft wants that -Yoink-, and until I’m proven wrong I’m blaming them.

The only thing I would blame 343 for is if the game is unfinished, lazy, and or the story was bad, but that’s not the topic at hand.

ALSO
“Those that defended 343 on these threads are just fake accounts to counter bad press”
You going on a tangent about people having their own opinions, and beforehand attacking those who HAVE opinions is downright contradictory if it isn’t excluding those who have a mixed opinion about 343, but would still like to see them do better with Halo.

I’m not trying to attack you, I just want to let you know that people like me aren’t bad when all we want is to see Halo, or in this case, Halo Wars 2, get better, in a ways of criticism, while not down right saying that 343 are some of the worst game designers alive.

Aren’t I allowed to do that? D:\

seriously, this is sad
A halo wars 2 campaign does not deserve a $20 price tag
everyone knows it
its as simple as that
they do not put the amount of resources in this game as others do for AAA titles like black ops 3 or even rainbow 6 siege who releases new operators and maps for FREE
and i can guarantee you it takes more work to make those operators and maps than it does to make halo wars 2 leaders and maps and let me remind you guys that ubisoft release both of those for FREE
i paid $25 dollars for rainbow 6 siege and 2 years later its still giving me free content and it will continue doing so on year 3
but 343 charges you an entire season pass for their leaders
and 343 thinks $20 is a fair price for a worthless campaign and 2 leaders when people already paid for a season pass
this is a rip off for anyone with eyes to see it and the saddest part is that no one is going to pay this when we have already put down an already ridiculous amount of money for a game like this
hopefully the lack of users and lack of support will show 343 that this is not the type of game where you can just slap a 20 dollar expansion whenever you please
this game already lacked a solid player base and i bet it will be even less now that they are trying to screw us out of our money
this game is not important enough for such a price tag
its honestly disgusting that the loyal fans who have already ignored the tremendous price tag out of support are getting shaken for more and more money
343 gets a lot of bad rep, the incomplete halo wars definitive edition
and now this
its safe to say i wont be preordering halo wars 3 if they even get that far
already players are dropping left and right
absolutely disgusting

Can’t remember any previous times of having the urge to ventilate my opinion about a game… but I do have now and where’s the best place to do that then here right?

It makes me laugh, cry and almost feeling ‘used’ at the same time:

  • pre-ordered ultimate edition: 90 euro (!31-7-2016!)
  • Awakening the Nightmare: 25 euro
  • complete edition: 70 euro (includes all above)

Why do we have to pay 45 euro more? We, the ‘early birds’, are the reason there is a game to bring content out for… if we all would have been waited for an ‘complete’ edition (standard-ultimate-complete weird way of naming anyway. Standard-half-full would be better and next time make it available for pre order…), it would not been brought out cause the game wouldn’t be played…

Thank you all for reading…
You’re such a wonderful audience,

idk man i feel weird quoting myself but Rainbow 6 Siege is a Fully Supported AAA title and they release 3 years of free content free dlc operators and free maps
it has a lot to do with the developers plans
343 definitely had a say in this
and they are definitely to blame for such terrible pricing on something that most of the community agrees shouldnt have a price tag at all

Already paid 89,- euro for this crappy buggy “game”, and now they want another 24.99 euro for this crappy story dlc.
Thanks for taking a dump once again on your fanbase.

I would buy this, but I can’t see, with all the crap in my eyes.

The only thing I’m looking forward too, is Microsoft closing down 343 Industries, you guys have earned that an then some. :stuck_out_tongue:

Sincerely your former Customer

The majority of people on this thread can’t read . The season pass didn’t say it includes all dlc , it said it would include leaders and a campaign expansion . It also stated 6 months of content not a year . The 6 month period is up . The season pass was very cheap for a season pass but it still saved you a lot of money rather than buying everything separately . 7 leaders all $5 and a campaign expansion which was also around $5 . You got $40 worth of content for just over $25 , if you was expecting more then your stupid every game out doesn’t have that much content in there season pass for that cheap , most season passes are much more expensive around the $50+ mark if the season pass was a lot more expensive then your arguments would be valid but halo wars season pass was half the price so stop

The new dlc adds loads of content for a reasonable price . 343 didn’t betray you etc your just bad at reading and understanding what your buying , I would recommend the new dlc the two new leaders are fun , the campaign is good and terminus firefight is extremely fun . The new mega turret is also amazing .

and for people complaining about microtransactions just stop , halo wars 2 had a multiplayer system where you would be put against people with a similar level deck so it effects no one negatively or positively , the only perk would be getting cars faster but by completing campaign I had all cards unlocked . And with halo 5 it was just in war zone which was also incredibly easy to get packs .

True… but you’re one of them:

  • Ultimate Edition 90 euro
  • Awakening 25 euro
  • Complete Edition 70 euro but contains all above

See the frustration? The bigger the fan you are, the more you have to pay. If they made the Complete Edition 115 euro I would be oke with it.

1.) Logs into HW2 for PC for the first time in months due to cool looking new DLC (botched launch for PC multiplayer and unbalanced multiplayer during Kinsano launch pushed me away).
2.) Didn’t download DLC when I launched the client (Pre-ordered ultimate edition), so restarted client.
3.) Still didn’t download so came onto forums.
4.) Read this post and verified in FAQs that the new DLC is not included in my pre-ordered ultimate edition (Also noted the new “Complete edition” which DOES include new and all DLC for the SAME cost as my pre-ordered ultimate edition)
5.) Uninstalled HW2 and will never be buying a game from Microsoft/343i again (Played a loved all Halo content from the combat evolved release on the original Xbox).
