Celerun Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So I'm a bit confused, is the only way for me to get the founder title is for me to resubscribe my recurring 6 month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zezel Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Amazed at all the negativity for being given something for nothing. Remind me to take you folks off my Christmas gift list (wah - I wanted a X not a Y). Can't wait for the furore when vet rewards get announced. Amazed you cannot see the scam: Step 1) Preorder Step 2) Beta Test Step 3) Beta testers bring up idea of some sort of title, you know like "Founders" Step 4) Bioware brushes off beta testers Step 5) Alpha build is released at launch Step 6) Delayed patch is released broken Step 7) Bioware announces "Founder" title good until March, 1-2 days left to sub period Step 8) Players who created account in January 2012 foam and froth at mouth feeling deserving of this title Step 9) Beta testers scratch head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoOhm Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I could laugh at this and so on, but you know what, i just feel sad.For once, cant we just have a good game and get more than promised than the opposite, i remember 10-15 years ago.. then the artists where at work, now they just in it for the cash. This is how i feel.It sucks! http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=205996 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoOhm Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 You guys should NOT even mention you where beta testers, cause if you did what beta testers SUPPOSE to do, this would not be a problem. Its apparent that the beta testers just wanted to play a game and have fun and did close to NOTHING to track down bugs and all we now see in-game. YOU failed big, BETA TESTERS in this game just wanted free fun. Are you proud to say you beta tested a game with this many errors? You failed us all, ppl who could have made this game work didn't get to Beta test cause greedy little kids got there first and did **** to find errors.

Loekii Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) This is something that should have been announced at release, rather in the mists of a patch mess up. It is another example of poor management decisions. As a customer, the timing makes this gesture appear cheap attempt to make me forget about the patch problems. It is like the slimy used car salesman coming rushing after me, saying he forgot to mention there is a 2% discount if I buy today.

You failed us all, ppl who could have made this game work didn't get to Beta test cause greedy little kids got there first and did **** to find errors. Beta testers reported this game's issues. Beta testers (myself included) repeatedly stated on forums and in bug reports that the game was not ready for release. Besides, BioWare has its own internal QA department that it PAYS to test their game and provide bug reports/feedback in the first place, so saying that people who beta tested for free hold any accountability for this game's massive flaws is just completely baseless, even if all they did was screw around and play for free - which they did not.

officialfive Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 a medal is ok, a title is nice but what you should really do is give everyone access to the super fantasticly, awesome ViP Lounge and the CE store! Even that is a joke VIP and CE store items junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acheros Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Amazed you cannot see the scam either. I see the perceived scam. I just think your perceptions and reality are two different things. Bioware can't do anything, ANYTHING, without someone complaining. If it was only given to pre-orders, people who bought it on release without preordering would of cried foul. If it was given to anyone who got it in the month of december, everyone else would of whined. Someones always going to complain about anything they do. Heres the thing, though. If you're going to quit a title isn't going to keep you here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loekii Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So I'm a bit confused, is the only way for me to get the founder title is for me to resubscribe my recurring 6 month? I may be incorrect, but I believe you just have had to registered your game (ie your first free month) with in that time frame (including the early head starters). So those that have cancelled, will still receive the title, because they activated a subscription with in the time frame. In short, I believe it just refers to when you activated your account for the first time, regardless if you cancelled, purchased a 6 month, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
