Boycott NC soft / Petition / Lawsuits

Lawsuits on that simple word => http://na.cityofheroes.com/en/about_...m_overview.php

=> FOREVER <=

That simple word would have confuse any customer to believe that they could plain spend thousand dollar for long term subscriptions. Refusing re-imboursment and leading a lawsuit would push NC Soft to keep game FOREVER online. With a good lawyer and that clue about what they announced us for years on that web page is a I win lawsuit for the playerbase vs NC soft !


Petition to show the weight of the playerbase on the dedicated page: If anyone can post it in the thread thx

And best tool to counter CEO and his dumb business-plan is to share on social web the NC SOFT products' boycott. Also share with friends all over the world not to give these Korean Cyber terrorists any more penny until the entire company goes bankruptcy: keep the fire of anger it's a war-like !

I hate to break it to you but literally nothing lasts forever. I don't think any company could be held responsible for using such a word to describe their product when any reasonable person knows and understands the finality of existence in this roiling pot of atoms we call a universe.

I think it should happen, no NEEDS to happen and the player base wins. This company needs to be put in their place and bot kill years of players work and social networking for the sake of a few dollars that were lost on another entirely different product.

I'll say this again:

Regardless of the reasons for the closing, NCSoft handled this wrong. CoH was still making money, so it literally would not have hurt to call in the Dev team and say "Okay, guys, we have some bad news. We're closing the studio in six months. Start wrapping things up."

That would have been sad, yes. But at least the devs could have spent the next six months knocking out a few last in-development powersets (dropping the ones in the planning stages) and, more importantly, bringing closure to the gameworld. They could have ended things gracefully. And NCSoft would have gotten another six months of profit out of the game.

Instead, this whole "Game's closing. You're all laid off. Clean out your desks." approach has instead left the dev team high and dry (though I'm sure with their talent they'll find themselves new jobs quickly); it's left the game world in a state of limbo, where anticipated features will never come to pass and storylines were left painfully unfinished; and, worst of all (even for NCSoft), it's made the playerbase - and the gaming community at large - angry. NCSoft has gotten nothing out of it but a lot of bad press and tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of players who won't buy anything from them ever again.

It's not a case of "nothing is forever". Of course the game was going to close (or at best go into Eternal Maintenance Mode) someday. But not like this.

What's next, sending in thousands of cupcakes to NCsoft?
