I sent them an email about this too, today, and got an answer in a few minutes saying they are going to announce news regarding this in a few days or something.

Hopefully, it will be a good news for us, similar to the current one. With Chris' helpful attitude, I predict that they will agree to adding another effect to a dual wield. There is really no reason not to do it, as they will sell more SP and only one of those beautiful effects (or mixed with another, a different one) on a dual wield, looks just out of place.

Also, imho, they won't lose anything on giving us upgrades to SP from previous point packs. For example, whatever extra money I save on those upgrades, I am going to put into new point packs, anyway. I expect, that many people will do the same.

GGG's selling point is not just a good game, but first of all their helpful attitude and personal dealings. You just WANT to support them because you feel a personal connections with real people. It will double their financial success. As somebody has already mentioned in another thread, they are the most intelligent capitalists because they know how to grab customer's emotions, what is impossible to do for some impersonal corporation, which is interested only in grabbing our wallets, and only reluctantly deals with our complaints and wishes through some poor nameless and uninspired chap (no wonder), sitting in a sweatshop in India who doesn't know anything about the game we play and reads ready answers from the sheet, what we came to appreciate and love so much about corps, nowadays.

The recipe for success is quite simple: you don't ignore me, and I won't ignore you. GGG's stuff seems to get it. When did you last time get an email from support 5 minutes after you send yours, 5 AM in their office? Well, it has happened to me 3 times already with GGG's support. Three is already a pattern. When did you last time receive a PM from the boss of a gaming company telling you that he thinks that your forum comments seem to be a bit unfair towards them and then fixes everything you were unhappy with? Well, I have got that one, too. I was shocked that the main dev actually read my comment and took it to his heart, and also because I realized that I was dealing with a real person with feelings - something new to me, who has been playing for years games made by big corps, which do not care a bit what I think or say on their official forums. Now, I will have to adjust my attitude to match GGG's. Finally. Thank you for that Chris & GGG.

Like we all figured, they are going letting us combine multiple packages towards an upgrade.

Any plans to make the weapon effect apply to both weaps? I'm an ele cleave, and for as much as I want to help support development I can't really buy another pack at the same price right now :) Cheers.

At the moment we're trying to tackle the dual wielding issue - there's a tentative solution that we'll be looking into in the next few days. The situation with alts is something we'll probably try to solve too - thanks for pointing it out!
