Geldran Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I got my pre-order on the 29th. Really hoping they make it up to it. Even if they don't, that means I get to finish my last final, so it's win win for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JogelBolla Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 This is ridiculous. Imagine this scenario: (though I know it likely fits your description so I know it won't be a stretch of your imagination.) You're an adult with a spouse and perhaps children and you have heavy responsibilities during this holiday. It's review time at work, you're hoping to get a great review, perhaps a bonus and a raise. You don't want to be the guy asking for time off during the holidays when you're needed most. You have shopping to do, you have to spend time with family and you have very little time to get all your decorations up, your tree up, presents wrapped, and on and on. Playing MMO's all day isn't for you, you gave up WoW forever ago as it threatened to destroy your family life. Adults aren't supposed to behave this way - your parents didn't play video games all the time - yet it's in your bloodstream. Now Bioware releases a thing you could not possibly avoid if you tried - An mmo based on your favorite franchise... the ultimate escape. Unlike SWG this one's really decent. But no.... I can't. The economy, my wife... it's Christmas time. I'll wait, if I ever play it (and I shouldn't) 2 seconds later F-that I'm buying it. You can't even stop yourself. This is a drug of the most potent degree. Now somehow, in the midst of all the responsibilities I've mentioned you manage to schedule a few days off to play at launch. You expect bugs and wait times but you've earned the time off of work and this way your family will be at work or school and you can try to remain responsible during the rest of the day... Except that, no, you can't and now you've wasted those days off because BioWare did something wierd you could never have anticipated which no other game company has done and which you could not have planned for. I'm sitting here now, for my second day off (still half day tommorow) staring at yet another wave thread thinking I seriously regret my purchase since I would have paid the 80$ JUST FOR THESE COUPLE OF DAYS. But I didn't get them. Now I have to get back to work and I might get to start playing over the christmas holiday after the 26th. Why would you do this wierd thing? People pre-order with the anticipation that they will get in early. The lack of updates, the lack of any dev response to any of the complaints mentioned in any of the threads. We know you read them, you come in to close / lock / move them. Well why do you think they are such large threads? Why won't you listen to anything that's being said? I also notice another really strange phenomenon. When people vent in a forum because they would like to have other people see and comment on their issue: there is a staggering number of Goody two-shoes, holier than thou, reprobate reprimanders. I'm concerned about the number, as it creeps up to near half the posts in some threads. Are they just more vocal? Do they repeat post more often? Please tell me nowhere near 40% of our fellow humans are actually this way - but rather that they are disproportionally represented online for some reason. too long. i did not read.

Hroun Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Hmm. Pre-ordered 11/25 (didn't get in yet), and the timing is impeccable. Oddly enough, I woke up at 11:25 too. Herecy! Witch! Burn her! ... or him, that's cool too.. right guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlarkent Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Lol I'm usually the first to rage, and because the Dec sales are so small and arent even the size of a full wave I may yet but the past couple of days have been hilarious with all the Decemberist talk so one more day wouldnt be the worst thing that could happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctum Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 If it cuts out on Nov 29, ill be pissed considering I bought it and entered the code on the 29th but it counted as the 30th for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sir, are the reason gamers have such a bad image in the eyes of the world. Nobody read this. This is not the post you're looking for. Move along. Not everyone is so completely out of control that they can't play a game AND have a life. I have a family to take care of as well but no game, including this one, would ever "threaten to destroy my family life". That's ridiculous.

Sotocles Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 @IoakimidisG You'd be surprised how many people redeemed codes in the last two weeks.... Can.. only.. hope.. D: Thats what I'm thinking. People over simplifiy and say "ITS LESS DAYS" but theres alot of us decemberists out there. The decemberists, were the ones who just skated by finals with a couple of C's and a D were going to have to retake over the summer. go procrastination.
