[QUOTE="Pinhead, post: 24127, member: 80"] Absolutely not. I contributed to the TZ & ST:TNG kickstarters to show my support for FarSight, encourage future development, and, most importantly, make those two tables a reality. At this point, if it was somehow profitable for FarSight to do so, they could they could give TZ away for $1 and I wouldn't care. Maybe I'm reading into things, but sometimes I get the vibe that some are seeking to "punish" non-backers (and maybe even low-end ones). Only FarSight knows what they need to charge, but I like JoshuaKadmon's suggestion of $3.99 standard / $6.99 premium. If the standard price edges too close to $5, FS will need to make a strong case to the avg. customer why this table is worth twice as much as any other TPA or FX2 table. Bundling TZ into a monthly pack would work fine, if they were only dealing with Xbox. If I understand correctly, we're getting a MS points voucher rather than a DLC redemption code. We could just apply those spacebucks to the table 2-pack purchase. While I don't think that the average customer would know or care about an exclusivity period, I feel FS has enough problems with DLC releases without adding extra complications. And, speaking of exclusivity, Supermans idea of enhanced edition, that's forever unavailable to all but an elite few, would not be in FarSight's best interest. Again the avg. customer wouldn't much care, but I see decision as being deeply divisive of the TPA community. And, more likely to generate resentment than interest in the future kickstarters.
