We still pay $20 for it. Though it's only $10 worth of Microsoft Points you can't buy $10 worth of Microsoft Points. You need to buy $20 worth. Also, some expansions go above and beyond what constitutes an expansion and provide a hell of a lot more than a few new quests (Shivering Isles, for example).
Got something for ya, dumbass: I'm not a Republican, I'm a naturalized American and I am 100% Spanish. Have some balls and stop hiding behind the anonymous shroud, dickhead. The EU is a shit government and deserves nothing but to fall apart.
Sweet! I might go back to CoH/V. It has one of the best MMO communities ever and catches the comic book theme 100 %. The only criticism I have is that it is too grindy and can get a bit too simplistic.
All of these are pathetic excuses so as to not foot the bill. Covertly arm mercenaries? Hide the guns where they can't be found? Have a comfortable, enclosed lifeboat for the mercenaries to detach in (a comfy one so that they don't go crazy waiting)? Have the mercenaries in a separate ship throughout the trip as escorts that will safely ensure they get to their destination.
I wasn't talking about giving guns to nobody sailors. Hire security guards at the very least. Mercenaries, like Blackwater who could use a new assignment. There's no excuse not to protect our citizens and our shipping lanes.
