Concerning the new store changes - What's up with the Subway points?

[Ziindarax]

As per the thread's title, I am wondering how one uses Subway points to gain Turbine Points. Thanks.

At the moment we don't have this ability enabled, although it is something we are working towards, and will announce when it is ready. When the time comes, we'll explain what options are available, and how it is used.

I thought I saw a Burger King logo in there somewhere, also. Made me do a doubletake.

Ultimately, it depends on which vendors are supported, which is something we'll have more information on when the time comes to make this option available.

Will they deliver? And do we have to be in an inn to make the order or will the delivery Person be able to find us in the darkest depths of the dungeon, and if so, what protection will be in place to prevent Kobolds from stealing our orders?

All I can say is that if billboards /other advertising appears in-game for these vendors - you will be the laughing stock of the Internet.

I do not want to run a VoN 5/6 "brought to you by Subway."

I do not want to run any quest in the "Burger King Dungeon."

It sucks bad enough that in the NFL, every stadium (except for Green Bay - long live Lambo!) is the "{Corporate Logo Here} Stadium." I will not be questing in similar environments.

Agreed.

(Such things are amusing and appropriate in Post-Apocalyptic settings. Not in Fantasy.)

KC has avoided this as well. Arrowhead Stadium (Chiefs) and Kauffman Stadium "The K" (Royals).

We have very little information available at the moment and it's not actually in the game, however I think now is a good time start complaining.

My theory: Turbine will be a running a promotion with McDonalds, Burger King and the like where you have a chance of getting turbine points, to be used with any of the Turbine games. This will both entice us to clog our arteries (which will make us lethargic and spend more time on the computer) and promote the game via these venues in an effort to get new players.

Let's go Royals!

(I was at the ALCS Game Six last Friday and watched them win the pennant!)

This will not happen, although the idea of Velah trying to sell you a magazine subscription prior to the fight is a pretty great one...

This would be a great way to populate ToEE. Since there are few normal collectibles, those empty rooms and corridors could be filled with:
1. Burger King Bag - half eaten pack of fries (+10hp, -10% speed, 1 min. duration)
2. McDonald's Coffee Cup - spoiled latte (poison -1 Con, Haste 20 sec {to get to the RR})
3. Subway Wrapper - a portion of bread (90% of the sandwich) (+1 thrown weapon, stun 5 sec. -while the monster tries to eat the bread)

Any more ideas????

Why am I here? I should be in Burger King! What is this delicious Sub?

i remember in the original diable (or maybe hellfire) you could mod one of the bosses to give you a ticket about aerosmith tickets.

purty please?

League of Legends/Riot allows multiple giftcards in purchasing points for their game and no ads show up there;

Not many places stock Turbine Points cards, but many places stock BK, Subway, and other gift cards. See it as a way to broaden the availability of Turbine Points, and not a doorway to in game sponsorship.

Halfling Characters with a Subway Wrapper can cast facinate on a monster? Is that wrong?
