  1. Anyone else got this issue?
    Unable to contact game patch server.
    Please check your internet connection or try again later.
    If you want to skip the update step, force a launch using the right-click menu on the game list or main button.
    Can't verify or do anything else with the game

    If they can ban you from accessing the content, not just the servers, then they are illegally banning you or illegally charging for the content, or illegally not allowing private use of the content.
    Isn't there a saying about discussing potential litigation on the interwebz?

    I highly advise you to contact a lawyer who will talk to you for free about your case before you spend any money.

    Before that, I advise you to read the EULA that you agree to every time you log in.

    That's what I am saying. There're only few of most everything that I actually use.

    How many subscribers are there now? Have the devs said lately? Perhaps the ship has grown leakier than it appears.
    Oh NOES!!

    D000000000000000000000M!!!!!

    It may be naive, but it seems they could get new/more customers. I am just sayin'. Cause I ain't very likely to give them more than my subscription.
  6. I don't plan on getting every power set anyway.

    I have played only a few combinations from a few ATs so far. I am glad that I can spend my points on things that I will actually use.
  7. Usually I get very quick responses.

    But I have a ticket that was created on Thurs that I haven't gotten a response to yet. Which, in my experience, is unprecedented.
  8. I am taking these asap

    We can have it for name reservation or for name acquisition. Idk what the real difference would be.

    If we should want them.

    I don't plan on buying very many new powersets. There're already so many powersets that I don't play and prob'ly won't play.

    But if I see one I want, I will get it.

    Is there any possibility at all that it's related to the manner and tone in which you posted?

    Except for this one.

    You are upset that this is something different than what you have grown accustomed to. But, it will end up being okay if you give it a chance.
  13. Once I learned the details of the Freedom, I thought that F2P wasn't a very accurate description.

    To me it's more of an a la carte deal with an optional extended free trial.

    I think the OPs frustration comes in part from the fact that Freedom is different from other F2P models he's comfortable with. Frustration more from that than from there being anything actually wrong or unfair about Freedom.

    You may have previously gotten that content for free, but those aren't content that I previously got for free.

    Also, we have several opportunities to pay for power sets and content in the past. This would be just another one of those rather than a radical departure.

    The 400 points a month you get? won't cover them either in a single month.
    Unless the prices change.

    Additionally I'll have more than a months worth of points to start.

    Second, I am not so sure that I even want those. So, to me it's nice that I can spend my points on just the things that I actually want.

    I am not yet convinced that I should choose to be angry.

    I demand double dblxp weekends back to back. I want the devs to cut the intervening week days out of the week so that I don't have to wait for the second double XP weekend.


    When the Hotmail servers went down, Hotmail sent me an email telling all about which server went down, why it went down, who was going to fix it, and they even asked if I had any helpful suggestions or commentary. Then they politely waited for me to respond before they began to fix the issue. That's customer service.

    Please do though. My understanding is that as long as I stay subscribed, I get all of the content I previously had.
    Where did you hear that it was different?

    We really need to find out who's taking the stuff and then replicate their methods on whichever accounts we please.

    Arrrr!

    Mine were more unguided than misguided.

    I filed a petition. But oddly enough, very, very oddly, based on past experience, no one has gotten back to me yet. Usually I get at least a polite, "Hi, we're looking into our issue" within a day or so.

    ; shrug

  20. That mistake may have been fostered by the VIP beta where we logged on and found so much greyed out.

    Granted that I am not as smart as the average person, but it seemed to me that I had to buy the things that I would have received as a VIP player. Now
    i know that the store stuff thingy wasn't wai.

    So I spent my points on things like the invention system etc.

    So I am broke on beta and have about what I would've had as a VIP anyway.

    I think you have every right to be angry about anything you wish to be angry about.

    In re this issue, how's that anger working out for you? Good?
