I've been playing MMOs for over a decade. I'm polite, clear, and detailed with every ticket I send. In my years of dealing with PWE it's never made a difference. Ticket volume isn't a factor, it's like this in every game. EDIT: I shouldn't say volume isn't a factor. I'm sure it is. It would be more accurate to say that…
Explanation? Try excuse. I have played many PWE titles and the support for this one is standard. I have never had a ticket answered in under 4 days and I've had to submit a ticket at least once in every PWE title I've tried. The first reply never indicates they even read the ticket and the second reply is rarely…
Support is absolutely the worst I've ever seen out of a game company. I have never had a ticket answered in under 4 days (most are longer). When you do finally get a reply I would bet money that it is a Copy/Paste reply that does not address your issue. This has been a pattern I've experienced for years now. For example: I…
I've played PWE games in the past. I won't be spending money until at least a month or two after full launch. Too many bad experiences with the company.
Good, because they don't. I'm far from a fan of PWE, but when you attempt to change the password it sends a verification to your e-mail. Might want to check the security on all your accounts.
Bail out now. I've played a few PWE games and the CS is always the same. Wait a week or more, be told they can't help and given a pittance. It's some of the worst customer service I've had the misfortune of dealing with as a gamer. As I said, if he's wrong and they don't have a backup that is a whole different issue. An…
There are very few, if any, legitimate excuses for an MMO not to have character data backed up. They should always have a backup. Always. Even if you account was hacked for a week, they should still have character data older than that saved if they're doing it right. Sadly PWE rarely does anything right. I would not hold…
Welcome to every game PWE has ever published. Don't expect it to get a whole lot better, at least not until population drops to numbers their piddly servers can handle.
I've never had to wait even a full day for a response from SOE's CSRs, and I've been playing their games constantly since EQ1 launched. PWE, on the other hand, I've played only a few games from and have never had a ticket answered in less than a week.
I've played a few PWE games at this point. Every one has driven me off due to server issues, account issues, and some of the slowest, unfriendly, and unhelpful customer support I have ever seen. Literally. Luckily I can't even get this game to install! Bullet = dodged.
So I just downloaded the "Direct Download" installer, but it's uploading as much as it's downloading. This is a major issue for me as I am on ancient DSL (1.5 down), my ISP throttles torrents, and I'm limited to 150GB/mo. Can anyone tell me what's going on? How do I make this "Direct Download" stop uploading? And can…
