Were all wrong.

I decided to look at my account today (the 20th) and it says I can play until the 27th

So, the 3 day early access plus 7 days = 10 days...

Now, lets take into account the 3 days were interrupted with a ton of downtime,.,(so we actually received 1.9 days of play)

Everyone kept screaming "Forget those 3 days, as you still get 10 days..."...well...this is now incorrect.

Anyone see this as reasonable on Funcoms part?

Thoughts?

I don't know the specifics of this, but companies really need to be careful when they advertise things. For example, if they said you'd get 10 days free or something like that, and it turns out you only get 5 days free, it's false advertising. However, incidental, it's false.

Just my 2ยข.

MMO Subs:
WoW, CoH, DDO, Eve, FFXI, LotRO, Sb, SWG, Vg

Following:
Stargate Worlds and Earthrise

Really looking forward to more than any other online event:
Star Wars: The Old Republic

Did you mean...am I serious?

I am afraid so.

Makes me wonder how this deal has played out for others.

Thanks

Funcom did not deliver 10 days

 

***  BUT ****

I personally got more than my cash worth, due to the headstart

-- its going to be a zoo in competing with people in the earlier public zones

Well, most MMOs I know have downtimes, scheduled or not. Also, I would have supposed that the first days would be quite abrupt in that sense. But maybe it's just me.

You don't get it. We never got to pay in the first place. And so we don't get the 10 or 7 days and have to wait for the mail with the game open to play. That is the problem.

 

 

But I get where you’re going some people think they did pay when they didn’t.
