as one of the 300 player that just lost my guild place yet again due to being in and out of the hospital ... thanks, ea as a person who's subs from the release and also spends a huge amount on coins, your just making me now thinking of totally leave the game as I'm never about to get a chance of rejoining and this is the 1st time I'm up and about due to meds so hopefully I can get back in but normally I can't find an officer as I normally play overnight at odd hours due to my meds I keep getting screwed by you and this insane guild cap

I've been subbing and buying full releases of the game since the start was even in closed SQ52 group testing So thanks for the totally useless and the waste of time rewards, looks like you don't want to keep your long-running subbers anymore or people that bought the CE version of the game as can't rem the last time you even bothered to updated the vip vendor and you pitched that as a good reason to buy the ce version of the game on release

i don't disagree with your comment above, but their is one huge problem, the same info wasn't placed on to the Nvidia site or it's forums, so if like myself do not normally bother at all with the swtor forums, you wouldn't know of the comments/ changes in any way , I only knew of the give away due to the pop up when I upgraded my drivers .. so even with Eric making a comment in the swtor forums the problem is, in no way did they post/make the same comments on the site giving away the codes .. so it's still misleading they also changed the release date of the codes from the 13th to 14th in one post and once again they didn't change the info on the giveaway site you can't make changes to rules in one place and not the other one

if anyone else in the UK feels like i do and the whole thing was totally misleading as i and some others I know are doing report it to the ASA ( link below) as the whole thing feels rigged and also if you want a laugh just read Nvidia's reply Josh@NVIDIA said: Thank you all for your feedback and bringing issues to our attention. We’re listening closely. Many users were accidentally given multiple codes for the ‘Rule the Galaxy Story Pack’. We’re sorry for the mistake. It happened due to an unfortunate combination of a software bug and human error. This mistake did not change the number of recipients. We have also heard that we need to improve how we communicate which members get selected for giveaways. We regularly reward our GeForce Experience community with giveaways. Recipients are chosen at random and anyone who is a GeForce Experience member is eligible to receive a reward. We are taking steps to help ensure these issues do not happen again. they admit it was their screw up yet aren't willing to do the right thing this is the UK's ASA info https://www.asa.org.uk/make-a-complaint.html

the problem is that swtor and Nvidia both give out conflicting info about how this was going to work as I found out via Nvidia and on that , it doesn't on any webpage or in the forums say it's limited numbers as i took screen pic's as i happened to be having this same chat with someone this morning , it only on the swtor site it said chance after they have to make a post as due to the confusion the conflicting info that was given out and even now on the nvidia site it's still saying limit time and not chance basiclly they buggered the event up ..and on top of it player are now getting more than one key and from my pov I'm p'd off as I own and use 2 x nvidia msi card's 1080 6gb dc'd and a 760 4gb dc'd msi cards on 2 gaming and testing rig's as i run pc comapny and can't even get one code as I've said in a dif post this event has now just become a total joke and due to the conflicting info from both comapnys, by now Eric or some one should be making a comment about this screw up

I'd love a comment from Eric, as this screw up as it's becoming more and more of a joke due to the Mulitple codes going out to people etc and even then if I've read right they don't even work some of them

this is a huge joke now if players are getting more then one code, I've got 2 x cards a 1060 6gb oc and a 760 4gb both msi oc'd on my 2 PC's and I can't even get 1, and I use this bloody software all the time , I didn't even install it just for this promo and no one from Twitter has bothered to answer questions as to the reason why some players are getting 2-3 codes etc

this seems to be getting more and more of a joke unless some people are pulling your leg as they say,, how can some players get 2-3 code's and none for others

I can't believe with some of the comments some players seem to be getting 2 keys and other none, this is one hell of a screw up of a give away, I have in fact 2 Nvidia cards and can't even get one lol

i have to say twitch has done some great ( blizzard) overwatch/hearthstone / warframe / etc and other deals with Amazon in the last few months, Bioware and Nvidia could learn from them in a big way, even today I got a few free items without this rubbish due to the deals we've keep are yearly sub up with prime

this is why I was saying it was confusing as up until a few weeks ago I was in the middle of recovering from an op replacing 3 discs in my neck, so still on a good few med's etc inc the joys of morphine and 6 other nerve and painkillers even now and looking as I said only on the Nvidia side you can see where the confusion comes in to it i just think they should have done a hell of a lot better at giving the right info on the site and both swtor's info and nvidia's info should have been matching on both and as we know they don't

no problem with the mistake I was just confused, i believe you may be wrong on one thing ( and please don't take that the wrong way as we've both been looking at this from different info/ pov ie you swtor site and me Nvidia site ) , that bit about "This giveaway will be delivered via notification within the GeForce Experience client to select community members on December 13. Codes will expire on December 31. " is listed under the Desinty 2 give away and Not the swtor give away or any other place on the whole of the screen the reason I say this is due to the fact if you mouse over that Destiny 2 pic, comes up saying "HOW WILL I KNOW IF I RECEIVED A GIVEAWAY?" yet if you mouse over the swtor pic you do not get any pop-up saying that at all, I would have thought if that comment was for the whole page it would be the same for the swtor info, not just the Desinsty 2 beta bit ....this is why the whole thing is confusing if you've only seen the Nvidia info like myself until last night

see I learned about it the other way about to yourself via the Nvidia website as 99% I never bother with the swtor website the promo popped up on the last driver install and then clicked on the link from that ( even my pc's web histroy would back me up as yesterday was the 1st time in about 3 months i logged in to swtors site as i've been ill and didn't restart playing until about 2-3 weeks ago ), so all my info come from Nvidia and not swtor and i have the software on 2x pc's as I have an msi 1060 6gb oc'd and an msi 760 4gb oc'd and didn't even read eric stuff until yesterday and i also only asked nividia on twitter but got no answer from them at all but my comment is right as due to the total **** up off info is given out by both company as they counter each other, also in the Nvidia forums I've only seen one post about this as its been locked by a mod with no other info, so the whole thing is and has been misleading , also i'm confused by one thing in your comment you said about 1 x month sub , I haven't seen any info about that only the armour/mount and lvl 65, not 70 ..( and I don't care about them as 1 I sub even as I've been off ill for 4 + months and 2 already have the full game as paid foir it so don't need it 3 i have 2 x 65 toon token's sitting on my account unused from buying the ex-packs ....

Nvidia totally screwed up the whole thing on their own website as they posted as this is quoted from their website " We’re giving away STAR WARS™: THE OLD REPUBLIC™ “Rule the Galaxy Story Packs” for a limited time to GeForce Experience community members!" and this post is still up and I've even taken screen pic's just incased I missed it , but nada it was eric making a comment after the event changing the rules , but even at that point Nvidia still didn't change its web page to reflex the changes in the above post, they say/imply the whole community can get it within a limited time and not that the amount was limited also there is no little * with any clauses saying it was a limited amount of players just a time limit by rights, they should be giving the codes out to all as the whole thing is misleading

to be honest, I have to say it's not so much BioWare for once its the way that Nvidia chose to advertise this and also their wording on their own website the whole thing implied that all users of the software would get it for a limited time and not a limited amount of players and it even still is saying that if that's the case, I'll happily report them for misleading advertise to the uks advising regulators as I spent the whole day checking the nvidia website and even now it's still saying "We’re giving away STAR WARS™: THE OLD REPUBLIC™ “Rule the Galaxy Story Packs” for a limited time to GeForce Experience community members!" and nowhere in their forums before today they made no comments about the fact it was limited to a few players, it only said limted time , they also didn't reply to any questions on twitter when i asked etc about the rules at the moment it looks like nvidia very heavy shot themself in the foot on this , they should think about it as it's xmas and just admimt they screwed up and give the packs to all nvidia card owners https://www.asa.org.uk/make-a-complaint.html

not that I know off and no one on twitters won as I just checked but it has broken someone's pc installing the software

yeah the whole thing is a joke, oddly I'm not blaming swtor for this as this is totally down to Nvidia and it's wording on their own website which up until this morning was still saying "We’re giving away STAR WARS™: THE OLD REPUBLIC™ “Rule the Galaxy Story Packs” for a limited time to GeForce Experience community members!" "Nvidia keeps on changing from that etc, to be honest, they have screwed it up and should just give it away to all members as the ad in fact quotes as I'm sure they are breaking advertising rules with all the yo-yoing as at no point on the Nvidia site it said limited numbers ..it's only ever said limited time as i checked thru the site today and also took screen pic's , Nvidia need to deal with it or i can see a few people complaining about the ad being misleading and the wording is. no mattered what swtors said as Nvidia didn't even bother to change the website to have the right info

[ Eric is nice that you've pointed this out from the Swtor side but, one thing I have to say is that even earlier today, what's been said on the Nvidia site is different in the fact it implies "We’re giving away STAR WARS™: THE OLD REPUBLIC™ “Rule the Galaxy Story Packs” for a limited time to GeForce Experience community members!" and that's the full quote from their website, so even after you pointed out something else they didn't change the rules/wording on their own site, saying the above should mean that all players should get it ( that use Nvidia cards and the software) and it's not limited as you've said, I know they are saying they will be releasing more codes within the next 24hrs but it doesn't change the fact they said the "GeForce Experience community members! " and not limited numbers only limited time

Bumping the Post as after being off for a bit due to RL stuff with my health and slowly getting back into the game, it's nice to have all my toons on one server and also getting back my main missing name I had before the last huge server change, but it's a nightmare with the fixed cap for guild's now as our guild is stuck at 980+ having to kick, reinvite kick again etc to do stuff, I think the new servers have been fine and a good idea, but not removing the guild caps is a huge mistake or even fixing the guild windows I've been off for ages paying for a 6mths sub without even getting the chance to log in and it's still not fixed in this time, how about do both for the next patch ie remove the number cap and fix the guild window

agreed he should do it and feel the pain we are lol

I can when S.O.E screwed up SWG and managed to kill off the original version of the game ( before they made the wow clone of the game) ...funny that was a star wars game as well ( face it if you ever played the real version of SWG pre 3rd combat uprgade / wow clone you know how great the game was)

great so i just finished my first bit of DS V LS 1-25 managed to get a loads of items that i had to start with 3 crystals , 2 rug's of the lowest level 2 box's of gloves / bracers silver level and 4 crew rep items once again of the lowest level what a waste of time as a vet who's played since closed beta and bought the CE ( and you've done sod all about adding any new stuff in ages really so what was the point or having the vip band), spends a silly amount on coins a month to be blunt this is just BS would have been a better idea to add a vendor with some of the older rare items and being given tokens or gems so you could pick something useful also are you having a joke with everyone with the cost of the new perks the cost is a total rip off my 6th's months sub in fact renewed today ( only funny bit of the day it end's on chrismas day lol when i looked ), if i'd have known about the laughable quality of items you decided on i'd have stopped it it's a real pity as the idea is great ds v ls but you managed to totally screw it up

I may have missed this due to the huge amount of posts but are we going to be given free slots for the new toons were going to have to regrind from the start or have to pick a new severer again or delete the toons we have , this whole thing seems like a bad joke yeah great idea for subbing for over 5 years to this game and doing a year of closed and open beta before that

Cheers for taking your time for that i was thinking the post had been removed or moved but wasn't 100%
