Please fix the broken items in the founder pack or mail everyone 2 gold so we can afford to buy the stuff from vendor as replacement for the broken stuff we paid real money to get...

all the kits to gather craft stuff that you get in the founder's pack are broken for me... if i sell em i get 75 copper, but at vendor they cost over a silver each and would need to buy 25 of them to replace the broken stuff

hang out with them.. oh you mean just sit around cause the purpose of me spending real money was to have these items early so i could use them at lower lvl before I have tons of money so i might could have a nice supply of craft material before i hit lvl 10 in the first hour of game play.. oh wait... and since they are broken.. i did not get what i paid for so i just sit and wait for a fix.. or play anyway and count the spent money as a lose..

They should give you equivalent coin to buy replacement packs on the vendors. Easy and fast fix I would think?
yes it would be fast if someone GM would actually respond ... been waiting for a response for 3 hours
I am not happy:mad: I hate getting ripped off...

Seems that paying for an online game these days is like gambling.....
need to have a new disclaimer that says something like
"This is what we might give you for the money you will give us"

I REALLY think the word beta is used so that game companies can turn out product in any condition and call it ok IMO.. getting fed up with it

That's exactly what it is. When a game releases an "Open Beta" with no character wipe they're basically saying "Here's the full game. It's buggy as hell and not ready for release but we need money so we're releasing it anyway and you can't complain about bugs cause its a beta gais" Judging from some of the replies in this very thread as well as all over the forums. The strategy works and people willingly accept it.

Did you try verifying your game files first before redownloading?

I look at it as the single most positive development in MMO's in recent years. Possibly ever.
Why?
Because it is a case of simple, unvarnished HONESTY.
Every MMO that I have ever played (and there have been quite a few, all the way back to Ultima Online) has had a rocky first month or two. These months have been, in all truth, Open Beta's (at best), except that they claimed that they were finished, charged money, and invited critics in to review the "finished product". You got massive numbers of disappointed players and reviews that could (and did) set an otherwise very promising game up for a death spiral. Just look at Hellgate London. And there are STILL, four years down the line, unpatched reviews of Champions Online floating around, influencing gamer choices.
In this case the good folks at Neverwinter actually have the basic respect to tell us to our faces "Look, this thing is just getting off the ground. There is just no way that all, or even most, of the bugs have been found or fixed. It's still in Beta. If you want Polish, then wait for the full Release in a few months, when it's done".
'Wen considered the nature of time and understood that the universe is, instant by instant, recreated anew. Therefore, he understood, there is in truth no past, only a memory of the past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. Therefore, he said, the only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.' Terry Pratchet The Thief Of Time

Settle down Francis
It's a bug, they're going to fix it. It's crafting related resources, it's not gold duping or an XP exploit. Relax, have a shot of jager, keep playing the game I can't play yet. It'll be OK.

While in beta you should expect bugs and other problems but WHEN they sell a pack for 200$ with one of the main attractions being 5 days HEADSTART the least they can do is test these dang "packages" so they are fully functional on the advertised 5 day head start.
It's simple common sense and good business.
When you pay for something you should get it, it's not rocket science.
pwe is rushing to release their unfinished buggy and P2W game so people would start playing it ASAP and maybe, just maybe forget that ESO comes out in the summer.
Back to the OP post I put in a ticket on the broken Profession kits....pretty sad I cant gather 4/5ths of the materials because all those adventurers helper packs I bought cant be used. :P
PS. if you dont see your helper kits in the mail...go to the Founder Agent up on the west side of the Hall of Heros I was able to claim mine there since they didnt show up in the mail
If your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet I will end you.

At least they were upfront about it. I've played some "release quality" games that were still in alpha in my opinion.
