This translates to "Please oh Please don't unsubscribe after just one free month! We'll give you stuff if you stay!!"

A lot of people are jumping on that bandwagon, but that can't be the case, though the timing is horrid.

It takes time to implement the kind of thing they're doing. A lot more than a day or a week.

I want to love this game, I really do. I can ignore the endless whining about non-issues on these forums (sittable chairs and chat bubbles? really?!). I'll even keep hoping your support-department will get a clue and maybe even learn English. I have faith you'll eventually solve the ability delay issue. I hope we'll even actually see the high-res textures you're using in your marketing material in-game so the entirely justified false advertising claims go away.

I'll even ignore the failed CE and Digital Upgrade items (literally, I've clicked em once on my first char and slammed 'em in the cargo hold).

But this Founders thing is just a cheap shot. "Please please please give us money and you get something shiny".

The worst part; I saw the subject line of the mail and the first thing I thought, before I even saw the content, was "I bet you need to pay for x months to get this title/item/useless thing". And indeed.

Currently unsubbed. I'll probably go for another month to see how it goes but if I'm still looking at the ability delay on a daily basis, in low-res textures, I'm done.

Ofcourse they've worked on it! They saw how many members they where loosing for their major mistakes and they said, ****! We need to keep everyone atleast one more month! Hey, everyone loves vanity ****, let's give them a title for staying another month!

And to the butthurt people remark -- Yeah, because it's sooooo hard to re-subscribe for 1 month and get the title.

Toodles.

When i read those kinds of post i literally feel like im reading a divorce file of some1 who hooked up with some1 while wearing beer goggles one nite, married them, then woke up one day and said "hey i thought the married life was easy and fun without any work or effort put in to it!?!?"

I agree with you on some points about what needs to be improved in the game, but the difference is i know thats how games work and i know it takes time, maybe 7 years if it has to. Im a jr game developer myself and know in reality, even tho games are suppose to be "finished" once released, in reality, the devs will always want to keep improving their work. And this is a new MMO so its a given!

Instant gratification in todays society is its downfall.
See, we had your kind in beta telling us for a year before release that Bioware would fix or add in basic features. Then it was 6 months before release and still your kind said they have plenty of time to add in these features. Then 3 months rolled around and still your kind said have faith. A month before release and all our posts begging for things to be fixed or added in like AA would be flooded by your kind telling us to stop making an issue out of it.

Now the game has been released, how long do we need to wait before we can post a critical thread without your kind showing up and telling us to give Bioware a break?

If it was a cash grab, they'd be offering more than just a title.

You imbeciles who keep saying that it's just to make money may have some ground to stand on if they were giving away a mount or something like that. But a title? lol.
