Cancellation of Ranked Warzones for 1.2 and subscription renewals

Precisely. There's no guarantee that it will be released in 1.2.x or 1.3 even.

Although I'd wager that "Ranked WZs" will be the big "selling" feature for the 1.3 release - next quarter, in July.

they didnt trick anyone. Everyone knows anything in the patchnotes is subject to change before it goes live. And obviously people didnt resub a few days ago for Ranked warzones, they didnt exist yet, would have made more sense to resub today, or read live patchnotes and then resub.

6 flags has allot of rides, you can read about them all before you go. You can drive for hours to get there just so you can ride the superman all day long. maybe it was the only reason you wanted to go there at all. But if that one ride is down for maintainance...guess what you dont get ur day pass back, the park is still open.

I can't really understand why you would resub before the update goes live, if you only intend to play once the update (and your desired change) is there for real.

My honest guess is they still have no clue how to catch all the exploiters and feel the no rated wz rage in 1.2 would be less then the rage of corrupted rated wz's.

It actually makes a lot of sense from a conspiracy viewpoint.

The bulk of their subscribers most likely purchased the game between December 10th, and the 30th, with the largest majority of their subscriptions starting from December 20th - December 31st. (Christmas season, y'all) BioWare's Project Managers KNEW 2 - 3 weeks ago that the system isn't ready for release, and there was zero hope of it being ready by the launch date, so instead of posting a blog about it 2 - 3 weeks ago when the bulk of their subscribers could have the option to unsubscribe, and not re-new, they chose to wait until April 11th, which would be at the lowest point in their renewal cycle.

Glad i waited until Jan. 13th to buy this game.

everyone thought that ranked warzones would be in 1.2, it has been announced for a long time. to cancel RW 8 hours before the patch goes live is definitely sub catching and cheating.
they should offer a free refund for everyone who subbed since april 1st.

well pvp seems to be a secondary focus to pve in this game , so who cares if we lose some pvp players who were pinning their hopes and dreams on a 1.2 pvp revival.

anywho I dont think the number of people who would have re-subbed specificaly for 1.2's pvp content is a large amount of players as anyone thinks,... but they are just the loudest.

I enjoy the game, (i qq with the best of em also.) i support the game as such I have 300+ days sub, and that ensures sooner or later i'll get the content, and i dont have to go wah wah wah about another EA letdown. when have bioware actualy done anything they said without backflipping?

examples ...grace period no grace period. ip blocking , no ip blocking. unable to buy from within australia at "global" launch... imported copies wont work, imported copies will be ok .. and so forth.

hope for the best, prepare for the wor.... Normal, if people are that upset about it, write off the 14 dollars or whatever the heck it is, and leave. dont buy another ea/biowre product. and tell your friend... thats more effective that forum qq.... .

not everyone who resubscribed did so for 1.2 pvp changes. does the word legacy bring anything to mind???

furthermore "ranked warzones" were preseason anyway , anything you achieved in them was going to be RESET at the offical launch of season one.soo... people are upset that ranked warzones that get reset at the launch of season one were delayed? you can still play the warzone..... so all your actualy missing out on is limited time period rankings.......

Aye, it's like McDonalds to advertise that on X day they're going to have a Buy-1-Get-1-Free Big-Mac sale, then have a nation-wide outage of "special sauce" that day and be unable to sell any Big-Mac's.

It's called a Bait-and-Switch.

no more accurately, its like macdonalds saying a "big mac with special sauce is coming out on this day".... then before the day arrives they say "sorry special sauce is not available until further notice. you can however still have the big mac. we are aware it doesnt taste the same. but we are working on it".
