RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - manrogue - 30-01-2014 Yep, visions is a waste of time and paper........... RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - Agincourt - 31-01-2014 Subscription cancelled... RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - Gareth - 31-01-2014 Ok I now own a copy of Warhammer Visions. Firstly there was issues downloading. Having gone through the newstand and restarted the sub programme, the magazine does work fully. Having had a quick swipe through, some things have gone, and some have remained. Firstly, you have lost the new releases. Replace this with a lot of images of last months Tyranids. Then Hobbit and FW stuff. You also lose Jervis's section, and Vetoks. However you do get the battle report (which have been poor of late, and digitally contained a video, which has disappeared,) Blanchitsu, and a huge amount of paint splatter. Kit bash has remained in WV. It's not as bad as I feared. But if I didn't have 2 more issues remaining on my sub, I would be annoyed. As I do, I will continue to download, rather than chance a refund through Apple. However unless the focus is an army I am collecting, or planning too, then I doubt I would pick the issue up. The advantage of it also being digital, is that should I say pick up Dwarfs the or four years along, I could always go back and get that issue for inspiration.

Having received and reviewed both editions this morning we've done the same. RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - jaqenhgar - 01-02-2014 Same here, cancelled. Thought the weekly mag wasn't too bad, but price a bit steep, probably will only get it occasionally if there are any rules in I'm interested in. Only thing I think it lacked for this sort of format was a battle report, but the way they have been doing these recently it's no great loss. Thought it was nice having some rules in. £1.50 for that many pages would be more reasonable. Again a lot of the first half was really just adverts, which we really shouldn't be expected to pay for. Thoughts on visions - lots and lots of pictures, some of which I liked. 'Battle report' was an absolute joke, some pictures and virtually no text. TBH I wouldn't buy this for £1, let alone £7.50. RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - Agincourt - 02-02-2014 My last subscription issues through the post coincided with Visions and White Dwarf Weekly. I'd be happy with White Dwarf Weekly, but not at £4. If it was bi-weekly for my subscription, fine. Visions is a waste of time for me, I expect to see pictures on-line for free. The length of time I was on hold to cancel suggested there were a lot of folk out there doing the same. I gave GW my feedback... RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - Simian - 03-02-2014 I have 4/5 more of the voucher subscriptions so i'll use them for armies im interested in. i assume this months one is mainly dwarfs? is paint splatter mainly dwarfs? if so i'll grab it RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - Gareth - 03-02-2014 No this months is mainly Tyranids. That's part of the problem. All those pictures, and they are already a month old. RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - Simian - 03-02-2014 I'll pass then probably, next months will be for me. RE: Changes to White dwarf and new release schedule? - manrogue - 03-02-2014 I am loving the auto reply they are sending people that send in feedback about new format- Quote:Jes Bickham wrote: From the forums and here sounds like a lot of people are cancelling there subs, curious to know what knock on effect it will have.... |
