$30 pledged the moment I heard it'd gone live. No, not much ... but I've just made a big purchase, which requires a bit of belt-tightening to refill my savings and stay on-target for two big expenses in 2014 and 2015.

I also pitched $30. It's over twice as good as $15. None of the other kick-knacks interest me until $500+.
Which I definitely should not be spending. (Interestingly, there's a reward for 6 months premium, the next one up gets the same 6 months, and the next one gets two years...makes me wonder if that middle one is supposed to have a year in it) |

I don't know. The PDF and bonus in-game equipment at $50 is pretty nice.
So is the in-game special Augmentation at $75. I just don't have that much money to throw at them. |

I considered pledging... However I am not a fan of PvP based games and I can't find details anywhere in the FAQs about how PvP is planned.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) I just paid for the Legendary Founder package for MWO less than 24 hours ago and I see this now, talk about bad timing.
I wont be content unless I put up more for SRO just becase I love shadowrun more, its just going to have to wait a few weeks (cutting it quite close to the deadline) until I can afford it as I've already have quite a bit of money tied up in building my new computer. |

At the very least, they'll be the game they WANT to make.
Myself have only gone for lower tiers, however: SRO: $30 SRR: $60 The Song of the Summer King: $15 TAKEDOWN: $15 The Banner Saga: $50 FTL: Faster Than Light: $25 The Dragon's Storm Trilogy: $15 Doublefine: $15 Total $225 Or just slightly less than half my cut from Velociraptor! Cannibalism! |

I'm kind of wierded out here, Insofar as me viewing the dumpshock community as intelligent, reasoned folks, and what I'm hearing you all say.
A f2p (bad) browser based (bad) mmo (bad) is on kickstarter (bad). Yes, I realize that individually, some things I've listed as bad can turn out to be okay, or even good. But all together? Come on now, you know better then that. Slapping a shadowrun label onto the game doesn't make it good. |

QUOTE (almost normal @ Jul 19 2012, 04:14 PM) browser based (bad) Given the screenshots/gallery page, they're using Unity, which is just as valid for stand-alone apps as it is for browser and tablet based. In fact, cross compiling to these platforms is trivial. |
