Will there be a discount for College students?

I am a college student that lives in an apartment and I have to pay for my classes, and books. Can there be a discount on the monthly fee for students?, of course for it to be legit I can provide student email for proof.

    Since this game will have no box price or expansion cost, it is already essentially the "budget" non-f2p MMO.

    Nope. And I don't think that there should be. This ain't educational stuff, so why should college students get a discount?

    sadly, no. They wont give out discounts to college students because this isn't related to college.

    I mean by the time the game releases you'll probably be out of College but no, there won't be discounts for college students..

    No college discount, but if the referral thing is still going maybe you can use that?

    Edit: It is a thing according to the wiki: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Referral_program

    As a student, the subscription will be the best entertainment value you will get for the price. Hundreds of available hours a month vs 3 beers in a bar or 1 movie.

    Referral is great but when they moved to new website they are still working on it, i mean you still cant see how much $ you earned and what item someone bought. I contacted them 2 times and they are still "working on it", so, they are working on it over a year -.-

    It's probably not a priority and I doubt it will be until around launch to be honest. When they do fix it up, it'd be worth looking into for someone who might not have loads of money to spare on a sub.

    I need some advice. I'm planning to go to college this year. My dream is to become a doctor, but I'm afraid of difficult studies.

    I think you may have confused these forums with Yahoo answers. Irrelevant Necro :|

    Which is the greater folly, summoning the demon or expecting gratitude from it?
  • Mag7spyMag7spy Member, Alpha Two
    So post no on cash shop and discount for sub people can try to abuse. I feel like a guild jumped into the forums with a common goal in mind.

    Sounds like you're better off becoming a politician.

    I expected that at the end there would be a question, it is better to become a doctor or play AoC ?

    You won't still be a college student by the time Ashes releases.

    More seriously, you can change your path if you need to. The first few years are getting general requirements covered and gaining the foundations of your planned path. You'll be able to find out how you so with biology, chemistry, etc, as well as the rigor of pre-medical studies, and still be able to pivot to something else related (or less related) instead. Even if you make it through your entire undergraduate degree, but find medical school itself too hard afterward, you'll still have that degree, which will qualify you for various related fields. By that point you'll also obviously be confident whether or not you're interested in those subjects as a whole.

    Advice for the USA, but I expect it's at least somewhat similar elsewhere.

    I hope there's a discount for old men, cause I'm too old to still play games.

    No.

    As a college student you should be focusing on your education and not MMORPGs.

    Um no? Go do your homework. If you can't learn to budget 15/month for a game then don't play it.

    This is actually so great and i hope they continue with it. Referral program is a great way to get free subs. And by free i mean there's no media spend behind it. + It's an added perk they can advertise for ads as well. It's really a win win.

    Stop wasting your money on college. Biggest scam going. $300 for a mass printed book?

    You should never be afraid of difficulties. Our whole life consists of challenges. You just need to be prepared to put in more effort to achieve a good result. Not everyone can be a doctor. Only those who know how to achieve their goals and be hardy and purposeful will become true professionals. I can speak from personal experience. When I was planning to go to medical school, I needed the support of people who believed in my strength and ability. Of all the diagnostic medical sonography schools in florida, I chose a great college. The conclusion is one - never be afraid of your dreams!

    Maybe a paywall to the forums wouldn't be so bad.
    Edit: oh this is necro. Point still stands.
