Thread: BARC speeder not available on the digital download!
My pewter figure was a one-armed female Zabrak. Heh. Couldn't even get *that* right.

The question is, are they getting an in-game BARC Speeder, or some little model in the package. I know I got some unknown misc. pewter figure and some other stuff in the original SE Box.
I would hope they are not dumn enough to make a mistake as big as this...
*looks at CU*
crap.

The BARC speeder looks pretty bad-ass, I want one!!!
Unfortunately, there is no way to get it without creating a new toon. Even if you go out and buy the all-in-one pack, there is no way to transfer the speeder from the pack to your current toon. The only person who can claim the speeder is the one from the all-in-one account and, ofcourse, it will not be tradable (like the Naboo speeder).

But, how do you KNOW it will actually work this way? I'm imagining buying the all-in-one expansion pack and being able to use the key to get the expansion and the BARC. heh
I know, because that's how everything else worked.
I have SWG-Regular Edition. Let's say I want the goggles so I go out and buy SWG-Special Edition.
First, my account can't be upgraded to the special edition via the game code. I know this because people have tried.
Second, if I create a new toon, I cannot trade the goggles from my special edition toon to my normal toon. I know, because it used to be allowed, so SOE "fixed" it by deleting all the goggles on non-SE toons and making them untradable.
I also have the JtL pre-order on one of my accounts. I cannot trade the Naboo speeder from one toonto another. I know, because I've tried.
There is no reason to think that the all-in-one pack will be any different than the SWG-SE and the JtL pre-order. If anything, the time when SOE deleted all SE goggles on non-SE characters should show how they feel about the trading of the "special items".
Being so, I doubt there will be any way for us existing players to get that sweet speeder without spending some dough and creating a brand new character to use it.

Perhaps those of us that have bought everything, SWG Core, JTL and RotW will be flagged for a BARC. I really like the vehicle but just can't bring myself to buy software that I already have in order to get it.
then people that want to re-purchase the software just for the BARC, should be able to do so. At a minimum please let this be the case.
I can see into the future, the next expansion (assuming there are still people playing pending on the CU being a hit or miss) they'll probably just offer new players instant Jedi Masters for buying their 4 in 1 pack, and as a bonus if your subscribed to EQ2 they'll even throw in a cert so your Jedi Master can wear Mandolorian armor. $$$$$$$
