well they kinda had to. If they said waited till even Friday, then you would have had people who bought the game after launch day. Since the idea is to reward people who were here at the very very beginning that would not have worked.

My concern is the stated times in that I think they meant 12:01 am est on the 20th not the 19th

Well we knew that already despite people claiming that a minority posting on the forums meant a massive number of players were quitting. Sure some will quit, it's inevitable as some won't like the way the game turned out and others will feel the bugs etc are to much to justify the subscription at the moment.

But the "masses"? Care to show the source for that truth?

Unfortunately, the blog doesn't exist anymore so I can't figure out how the story ended.

OT: I don't know why everyone is complaining. It's an MMO. It just launched, so it's normal it's got bugs. FFXIV, Age of Conan and Warhammer Online were bad examples, but I guess (hope) they can learn from other people's mistakes.
About the title/badge... nothing to say, this is an item I could live without, except if it grants players some REAL advantages in-game in the future (as per the CE owners).
May have been fron 2010, but it's still true.

All the voiceovers in the world couldn't stop this game from being the giant cruise ship heading towards the Iceberg that it currently is.

Here are a couple of things that people would NOT rage about. I know you dont give a rat's ***, because you obviously know better - and this threat is a proof of how smart you are, but still

Rewards that I would be happy about:


Purple crystal
Free days to play


On top of the FPS and Responsivness fixed, but that's not a "reward" that's your duty here.
Titles? You can shove them, and please do.

The fact that they're giving "freebies" to people for subbing the FIRST month should tell you that the % is pretty damn high.

If you pay a month, you're a founder, if you're a ce owner who started playing on dec 15th but decided not to sub for whatever reason (game lacks any sort of modern feature, in my case) you are nothing. Ok.

well we got the preorder rewards. Second, in order to be billed this cycle you would have had to have inputed the codes by launch day. So including those who ran out and purchased the game on the 20th and inputted their codes that day is not that big of a deal.

I'll post here my question that I asked in the Foundry title qualification thnread:

Quote: Originally Posted by metalfenix View Post

I hope someone knows.
