Mookiethejookie Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Ive been beta testing this game since July, put alot of feedback trying to help Bioware/EA make a great game we can all enjoy. I bought the collectors edition of the game on my sons account and I own 2 other accounts. I would assume that would make me a founding member , I put alot of spare time into testing, finding bugs and giving my opinion. But from what I have read and this breaks my heart .....Founding members are noticed by Bioware by resubbing. Couldnt a different title be thought of? Anything but founder? As a Bioware fanboy and as a EA fanboy I refuse to resub. I have this thing in my brain that goese off , it triggers when I feel I am being taken advantage of. Before they announced the founder title I would have resubbed for a year , but not now , never again with these two companies. Dont slap people in the face Bioware.

Syrellaris Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 So getting a title for staying with them for the first month is a slap in the face? You really have some weird standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kindara Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Serious? You wont resub over a title. Why should NON resubbers get a title they'll NEVER see? Beta testers got the privilage of BETA testing thats all you'll ever get for Beta Testing. Trolls won't be missed. BTW if you beta tested I'm a huge tall Wookie with Red Fur...Your join date is this year. Edited January 24, 2012 by Kindara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthNisch Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 My guess is you failed to read the actual post about how to be a founder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanyen Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 First off, it's not "resub" as you haven't paid any subscription fee in the first place. Second, I agree that simply subscribing within 2 or 3 months (I forgot the time limit they set) should not give you a "founder" title. Pre-orders should have been given this title, with early subscribers getting something else. Lastly, the thing that caused you to decide against subscribing was that they decided to hand out this title? Really? Troll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discosoc Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Let me get this straight. You are mad about not getting a title for a game you won't be playing? Edited January 24, 2012 by discosoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kijthae Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Seems even Resub. is not enough. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=2083812#post2083812 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoobie Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 You're upset because your definition of a founder for Bioware's game is different from Bioware's definition. Your definition: Anyone who buys the game is a founder. Their definition: The first people who subscribe to the game are founders. IMO a silly thing to get upset about, but it's Bioware's game. They make the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taurusaud Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Yes it's just a ploy to get you to resub, this title should have been given to everyone who was actually a founder (i.e. everyone who bought the game and played on release). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make the rules. There definition needs work. I pre-ordered a CE, due to the various preorder fiascos I was pretty sure I wasn't going to get it until after the new year. I was on vacation at launch (scheduled long before release date was announced). I didn't want to miss any play time during my time off, so even though I knew I was getting a CE, I also ordered a digital standard edition...in affect I paid $60 for a month of game time. Due to their narrow definition I don't qualify as a founder even though I paid 4x what someone else who qualifies as a founder paid. I'm a bit bitter about that, and it's just one more thing that makes me think "screw Bioware". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink_Saber Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) As a Bioware fanboy and as a EA fanboy I refuse to resub. Oh, that's really sad. You refuse to support the game, and won't get a title. My heart bleeds for you for the title you wouldn't get anyway, since you won't be playing. Dont slap people in the face Bioware. Tip: Never call something a slap in the face if it's not an actual slap in the face. It just makes you sound like a self-entitled baby. It's flamebait. Every time. And no, you don't get stuff for quitting. Life's like that. Edited January 24, 2012 by Pink_Saber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you start threatening to screw people, maybe you should wait until you have even the slightest reason to be upset, because I don't see one here. If you're subbing sometime between last week and March, you qualify. Edited January 24, 2012 by Pink_Saber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of now I haven't recieved the title, based on their requirements I won't. I won't be billed or use a timecard. I've already canceled, but would like the title in case I ever come back, if they improve the game to a level that makes me want to play it again.

Bioware sees this as a long term game, so they are considering the people who subscribe during the first 3 months as founders. Besides, you have so many other dislikes about this game, a title isn't really going to effect your thought's one way or another. At this point, you're just looking for excuses to dislike Bioware/ the game. As other's have said, you're upset about a title you weren't going to use anyway?

Apparently they aren't teaching you any logic, the minute I said I canceled, you launched into drooling fanboy mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have lots of reason to dislike EA/BW, there is still a (small) chance they can change things enough to make me want to play again in the future. I'm no longer a Blizzard fanboy, but I enjoy WoW enough right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
